NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1997
(unaudited)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
GeneMedicine, Inc. ("GeneMedicine" or the "Company") is a Delaware
corporation in the development stage. The Company is developing non-viral gene
therapies that may provide unique clinical benefits in the treatment of a number
of human diseases. The Company intends to develop its products through alliances
with major pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
The Company has devoted substantially all of its efforts to research and
product development and has not yet generated any revenues from the sale of
products, nor is there any assurance of future product revenues. In addition,
the Company expects to continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future, and
there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully complete the
transition from a development stage company to successful operations. The
research and development activities engaged in by the Company involve a high
degree of risk and uncertainty. The ability of the Company to successfully
develop, manufacture and market its proprietary products is dependent upon many
factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the need for additional
financing, the ability to establish and maintain collaborative arrangements for
research, development and commercialization of products with corporate partners,
and the ability to develop or access manufacturing, sales and marketing
experience. Additional factors include uncertainties as to patents and
proprietary technologies, technological change and risk of obsolescence,
development of products, competition, government regulations and regulatory
approval, and product liability exposure. As a result of the aforementioned
factors and the related uncertainties, there can be no assurance of the
Company's future success.
The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair
presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial
statements included with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 1996.
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". The Company will
adopt the provisions of the new statement, changing from its current method of
accounting for net loss per share as set forth in APB Opinion No. 15, for
interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 1997. Adoption of Statement
No. 128 will require retroactive revision of the presentation of net loss per
share in historical financial statements. The Company's net loss per share
amounts presented in the accompanying financial statements as calculated under
the provisions of APB Opinion No. 15 would have remained unchanged had basic net
loss per share under Statement No. 128 been presented. Additionally, net loss
per share amounts as presented herein would also have remained unchanged had
diluted net loss per share under the provisions of Statement No. 128 been
presented, since the Company's outstanding stock options would not have been
included in the calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Except for the historical information contained herein, the following
discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed
here. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but
are not limited to, the early stage of GeneMedicine, Inc.'s development and
technological uncertainty, dependence on collaborative partners and licenses,
the failure of existing or future partnerships to be successful, future capital
needs and uncertainty of additional funding, uncertainty of patent protection,
uncertainty of government regulatory requirements, level of competition and
rapid technological change, as well as those set forth in this section and in
the section entitled "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in the Company's Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996.
Since its inception in January 1992, GeneMedicine has devoted its resources
primarily to fund its research and development programs. The Company has been
unprofitable since inception and to date has not received any revenues from the
sale of products. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to
generate sufficient product revenues to attain profitability on a sustained
basis or at all. The Company expects to incur substantial losses for the next
several years as it continues to invest in product research and development,
preclinical studies, clinical trials and regulatory compliance. At September 30,
1997, the Company's accumulated deficit was approximately $43.3 million.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues of $1.5 million and $5.3 million were recorded for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively, which consisted primarily of
contract revenue of $1.0 million and $3.5 million, and interest income of $0.4
million and $1.3 million, respectively. These results compare with revenues of
$1.5 million and $4.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996, respectively, which consisted primarily of contract revenue of $1.0
million and $3.0 million, and interest income of $0.5 million and $1.4 million,
respectively. Contract revenues in respective periods resulted from a corporate
partnership with Boehringer Mannheim Group, a part of Corange International Ltd.
("Boehringer Mannheim") to develop certain non-viral gene medicines to treat
selected cancer indications. The increase in contract revenue in the first nine
months of 1997 compared to the same period in 1996 was due to the receipt of a
$0.5 million milestone payment from Boehringer Mannheim for achieving clearance
from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to commence a Phase I clinical trial
using the Company's IL-2 Gene Medicine which GeneMedicine is developing for the
treatment of head and neck cancer.
The Company's research and development expenses for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1997were $3.3 million and $10.1 million,
respectively. Research and development expenses for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1997 remained relatively unchanged compared to the same
periods in 1996. The Company anticipates that research and development
expenditures will increase over the next several years as it continues to expand
its research and product development efforts.
General and administrative expenses increased to $1.2 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 1997, from $0.8 million for the same period in 1996,
and to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, from $2.7
million for the same period in 1996. These increases were due to the combination
of (i) costs associated with the recruitment and relocation of two of the
Company's officers, and (ii) increased professional fees related to business
development and investor relations efforts.
Page 7 of 11
<PAGE>
Losses per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997
were $0.22 and $0.60, respectively, as compared to losses per share of $0.21 and
$0.66 for the same periods in 1996. The decrease in the Company's loss per share
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was primarily the result of an
increased average number of shares outstanding.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Since its inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily
through private and public sales of its equity securities and contract research
payments from its corporate alliance with Boehringer Mannheim. Through September
30, 1997, the Company had received approximately $67 million in net proceeds
from sales of its equity securities and $13.9 million in contract research and
milestone payments from its corporate alliance with Boehringer Mannheim. At
September 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $26.0 million and cash,
cash equivalents and short-term investments of $27.0 million. In addition, in
October 1997 the Company received a $1.25 million contract research payment from
Boehringer Mannheim.
The Company expects its cash requirements to increase significantly in
future periods. The Company will require substantial funds to conduct research
and development programs, preclinical studies and clinical trials of its
potential products and to market with its partners any products that are
developed. In addition, the Company currently plans to manufacture clinical
scale quantities of its products, which will require the Company to expend
substantial additional capital. The Company's future capital requirements will
depend on many factors, including the ability to establish and maintain
collaborative arrangements for research, development and commercialization of
products with corporate partners, continued scientific progress in the Company's
research and development programs, the scope and results of preclinical testing
and clinical trials, the time and costs involved in obtaining regulatory
approvals, the costs involved in filing, prosecuting and enforcing patent
claims, competing technological developments, the cost of manufacturing and
scale-up and the ability to establish and maintain effective commercialization
activities and arrangements. Based on its current plans, the Company believes
that its available cash, including proceeds from projected interest income and
committed funding from Boehringer Mannheim, will be sufficient to meet the
Company's operating expenses and capital requirements into the second half of
1999. There can be no assurance, however, that changes in the Company's research
and development plans or other changes affecting the Company's operating
expenses will not result in the expenditure of such resources before such time.
The Company intends to seek additional funding through research and
development arrangements with potential corporate partners, public or private
financing, or from other sources. There can be no assurance that additional
financing will be available on favorable terms, if at all. In the event that
adequate funding is not available, the Company may be required to delay, reduce
or eliminate one or more of its research or development programs or obtain funds
through arrangements with corporate collaborators or others that may require the
Company to relinquish greater or all rights to product candidates at an earlier
stage of development or on less favorable terms than the Company would otherwise
seek. Insufficient financing may also require the Company to relinquish rights
to certain of its technologies that the Company would otherwise develop or
commercialize itself.
The Company's business is subject to significant risks, including, without
limitation, uncertainties associated with the length and expense of the
regulatory approval process, uncertainty associated with obtaining and enforcing
patents and risks associated with dependence on corporate partners. Although
the Company's products may appear promising at an early stage of development,
they may not be successfully commercialized for a number of reasons, such as the
possibility that the potential products will be determined to be ineffective
during clinical trials, fail to receive necessary approvals, be uneconomical to
manufacture or
Page 8 of 11
<PAGE>
market, or be precluded from commercialization by proprietary rights of third
parties. In addition, the failure by the Company to obtain patent protection for
its products may make certain of its products commercially unattractive.
Further, there can be no assurance that any collaboration will be continued or
result in successfully commercialized products.
