NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - Basis of Presentation
In the opinion of LifePoint, Inc. (the "Company"), the accompanying unaudited
financial statements reflect all adjustments (which include only normal
recurring adjustments except as disclosed below) necessary to present fairly
the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations for a full year due to external
factors which are beyond the control of the Company. This Report should be
read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 (the "Annual Report").
NOTE 2. - Continuing Operations and Liquidity
The Company has historically incurred recurring operating losses due to the
fact that it is still a development stage enterprise incurring research and
development expenses and deriving no revenues and has experienced an ongoing
deficiency in working capital. The Company financed its operations during
the quarter ended December 31, 1999 from the private placements of both
common and preferred stock completed in the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999,
with resulting gross proceeds of $7,025,000. As a result, management believes
that the Company has sufficient cash on hand to sustain operations through
March 31, 2000.
The Company has established a $500,000 revolving line of credit agreement
($500,000 available at December 31, 1999) with City National Bank of Beverly
Hills, California. On July 14, 1999 the Company entered into an equipment
lease financing agreement for $300,000 with FirstCorp of Portland, Oregon
which is discussed further in Note 4.
The Company continues to pursue parallel paths to secure additional funding
including strategic partnering, additional private placements, and a possible
public offering. In December 1999, the Company initiated a private placement
pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act to seek to raise the
estimated $4.5 million needed to launch its saliva based product. There can
be no assurance that any of these additional sources of financing will be
available and, in such event, the Company would not be able to complete the
manufacturing and marketing of its product on a timely basis. Recovery of
the Company's assets is dependent upon future events, including completion
of the development program and ultimately achieving profitable operations.
The outcome of these events is undeterminable.
NOTE 3 - Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is summarized as follows:

(Continued)
NOTE 4 - Commitments and Contingencies
Substance Abuse Technologies, Inc. ("SAT"), the former parent of the Company,
and the Department of the Navy on January 24, 1992 had entered into a ten-year
agreement granting SAT a partial exclusive patent license to products for drug
testing in the United States and certain foreign countries. This license was
transferred from SAT to the Company effective with the sale of SAT's majority
ownership of the Common Stock in October 1997.
In April 1999, the Company and the United States Navy ("USN") completed
negotiations for an expansion of the License Agreement. The new terms expand
the field-of-use from drugs of abuse and anabolic steroids on urine samples to
include all possible diagnostic uses for saliva in addition to the urine
application. In addition, the royalty rate has been reduced to 3% on the
technology-related portion of the disposable cassette sales and 1% on
instrument sales from the previous 10% on all the Company's product sales.
The minimum royalty payment has been reduced to $50,000 in 2001 (anticipated
first year of product sales) and $100,000 a year thereafter versus the
previous $100,000 per year. The Company is further developing the
USN-developed technology for application in its own proprietary test system.
On July 14, 1999 the Company entered into an equipment lease financing
agreement with FirstCorp of Portland, Oregon. The agreement allows for a
credit line of $300,000 ($74,000 available at December 31, 1999) for the
purchase of capital equipment, with a minimum takedown size of $50,000 and a
soft cost allowance of up to 20%. The term of each takedown lease is thirty
months with an end of lease purchase option at not more than 10% of original
equipment cost.
NOTE 5 - Stockholders' Equity
During the quarter ended December 31, 1999, the Company issued 400,000 shares
of Common Stock to holders who elected to convert their shares of the Series
A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock").
In addition, 8,841 shares of Common Stock were issued as dividends on the
converted shares.
During the quarter ended December 31, 1999, stock options were granted to
thirteen employees to purchase 389,000 shares of the Common Stock at exercise
prices ranging from $1.67 to $1.87 per share. As of December 31, 1999, there
were outstanding, under the stock option plan, incentive stock options and
non-qualified stock options to purchase an aggregate of 1,446,500 shares held
by a total of 23 employees and 3 directors.
On October 10, 1999, after over four months of due diligence, the Compensation
Committee granted to Ms. Linda Masterson, President and Chief Executive
Officer, five Common Stock purchase warrants, each to purchase 500,000 shares
of the Common Stock at $1.72 per share, which exercise price was the average
of the high bid and low asked prices of the Common Stock during the prior 20
trading days. Thomas J. Foley, Senior Vice President Research and
Development, was also granted two Common Stock purchase warrants on
October 10, 1999, each to purchase 250,000 shares of the Common Stock at
$1.72. Each warrant will not become exercisable unless the Company achieves
a specified performance goal before a specified date and will expire five
years from the date the warrant becomes exercisable. As of December 31, 1999,
there were warrants outstanding to purchase 5,662,314 shares of the Common
Stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations.
General.
The Company is a late development stage company developing a unique product -
the first product that will provide immediate, on-site diagnostic results
without the need to take blood or urine. The Company is focused on the
commercialization of the flow immunosensor technology licensed from the USN.
This proprietary technology, when used in conjunction with saliva as a
non-invasive test specimen using the Company's proprietary collection
technology, will allow the Company to develop a broadly applicable
non-invasive, rapid, on-site diagnostic test system. The product could be used
for rapid diagnostic testing, for screening, and therapeutic drug monitoring
in non-medical environments such as the workplace, home health care,
ambulances, pharmacies, and law enforcement. The first product under
development is for the simultaneous detection of drugs of abuse and alcohol.
The market potential for this product is estimated to be $750 million, and
growing to over $1 billion by 2002. Marketing is anticipated to begin not
earlier than the fourth quarter of 2000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
The Company is a development stage enterprise with no earnings history. Since
its inception, the Company has devoted substantially all of its resources to
research and development and has experienced an ongoing deficiency in working
capital. The Company does not anticipate generating revenue from product
sales until the fourth quarter of 2000 at the earliest. Because the Company
has not produced any revenues as a result of its being a development stage
company, it has been dependent, since gaining its independence from its former
parent SAT in October 1997, on the net proceeds derived from three private
placements pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act to fund its
operations, the last of which is described in the succeeding paragraph.
On January 21, 1999, the Company closed as to the sale of 600,000 shares of
the Series A Preferred Stock at $10.00 per share and the Company realized
$6,000,000 in gross proceeds. Finders' fees were paid to various consultants
and bankers for their assistance in helping the Company to complete this
private placement consisting of an aggregate of $592,078 in cash fees
(including $420,451 to Jonathan J. Pallin, a director of the Company) and
Warrants expiring January 20, 2004 to purchase an aggregate of 404,725 shares
of the Common Stock (net of a cancellation) at $2.41 per share.
Management believes that, with the net proceeds from the private placement
described in the preceding paragraph, the Company has sufficient funds to
complete the prototype for the testing product for drugs of abuse and alcohol
and that the prototype will be completed not earlier than the second quarter
of 2000. Management's latest estimate is that completion of the development
and launching of a saliva based drugs of abuse and alcohol testing product,
after the prototype instrument, will require an additional funding of
approximately $4,500,000, beyond the $6,000,000 raised in January 1999, and
that the product will not be launched earlier than the fourth quarter of 2000.
Having successfully consummated three private placements pursuant to
Regulation D under the Securities Act since November 1997, the Company
initiated in December 1999 a private placement to seek to raise the additional
necessary financing. There can be no assurance that management's estimate as
to costs and timing will be correct. Any delays may increase the Company's
costs of development, manufacture and marketing of the product.
The Company has continued to pursue strategic partnering through the Venture
Merchant Group. Several large pharmaceutical and diagnostic corporations have
expressed initial interest in partnering with the Company. Management
currently anticipates that these partnering agreements may not be completed
until the Company has at least completed development of the prototype
instrument. Accordingly, there can be no certainty as to when the Company
can complete such an agreement, if at all.
Management has announced the establishment of two financing arrangements which
will help the Company to conserve cash. On July 2, 1999, the Company
established a $500,000 revolving line of credit agreement ($500,000 available
at December 31,1999) with City National Bank of Beverly Hills, California.
The line of credit is secured by funds and securities in the Company's SEI
Liquidity Management account at City National Bank. The interest rate on the
revolving line of credit is variable and set at the prime rate as declared
from time to time by City National Bank. The revolving line of credit will
renew annually in June, and does not require guarantors nor annual fees.
Additionally, the Company entered into an equipment lease financing agreement
with FirstCorp of Portland, Oregon totaling $300,000.
If all of the common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of
5,662,314 shares of the Common Stock which are outstanding on December 31,
1999 were subsequently exercised, the Company would realize $7,643,410 in
gross proceeds. If all of the options to purchase an aggregate of 1,446,500
shares outstanding on December 31, 1999 were subsequently exercised, the
Company would realize $1,550,695 in gross proceeds. However, there can be no
certainty as to when and if any of these securities may be exercised,
especially as to the options and a warrant which were not all currently
exercisable as of December 31, 1999. Accordingly, management believes that
the Company cannot rely on these exercises as a source of financing.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 vs. December 31, 1998
During the quarter ended December 31, 1999, the Company spent $617,697 on
research and development and an additional $352,026 on general and
administrative expenses, as compared with $259,924 and $536,557, respectively,
during the three months ended December 31, 1998. The increase of $357,773, or
137.6%, in research and development expenses in the 1999 period was due to
increases in staffing and related research materials. Staffing levels in
research and development have nearly tripled over the same period in 1998.
General and administrative expenses decreased $184,531, or 34.4%, during the
quarter ended December 31, 1999. General and administrative expenses for the
three months ended December 31, 1998 included certain non-recurring
administrative costs associated with the private placement which closed in
January 1999.
From inception on October 8, 1992 to December 31, 1999, the Company has spent
$8,497,476 on research and development and $5,109,580 on general and
administrative expenses. Management fees paid to SAT aggregated $2,089,838
during such period.
Nine Months Ended December 31, 1999 vs. December 31, 1998
Research and development expense during the nine months ended December 31,
1999 was $1,660,591, up 103%, or $842,474, from $818,117 for the same period
in 1998. The increase in research and development is primarily as a result of
increased staffing, from 8 employees in 1998 to 19 employees for the same
period in 1999, and related materials. General and administrative expenses
during the nine months ended December 31, 1999 were $1,041,896 down 12.7%, or
$152,152, from $1,194,048 for the same period in 1998. General and
administrative expenses in 1998 were higher due to certain non-recurring
administrative costs associated with the private placement which closed in
January 1999.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contains forward-looking statements which involve risk and
uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements reflect management's current
views that the necessary financing will be available, when needed, to complete
the research and development program, that the product will be developed at
the contemplated cost and within the projected timetable, that, during the
interim period before the Company begins marketing, competitors will not
begin to market a competitive saliva-based testing product and that the other
risks described in the Annual Report and other filings by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission will not materially adversely affect the
Company's operations. Because there can be no assurance that management's
expectations will be realized, actual results may differ.
