SYMBOLLON CORPORATION
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note A - Description of Business:
Symbollon Corporation (the "Company") was originally incorporated as an
Illinois corporation on July 15, 1986 as Symbollon, Inc. On May 21, 1991,
Symbollon, Inc. was merged into Symbollon Corporation, a newly formed
Massachusetts corporation (which was subsequently reincorporated in Delaware in
August 1993), to carry on the business of Symbollon Inc. Except where otherwise
indicated, references to the Company in these financial statements and notes
thereto include the activities of Symbollon, Inc.
The Company was formed to develop and commercialize proprietary
iodine-based products for infection control and treatment in biomedical and
bioagricultural industries.
The Company is in the development stage and its efforts since inception
have been principally devoted to research and development, securing patent and
trademark protection and raising capital. In connection with its research and
development efforts, several grants under the Small Business Innovation Research
("SBIR") program concerning the Company's technology have been funded.
Management of the Company anticipates that additional losses will be incurred as
these efforts are pursued. In 1995, the Company signed a marketing and supply
agreement for its first product and commenced shipping.
Note B - Accounting Policies and Disclosure:
The accompanying unaudited financial statements do not contain all of
the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles and should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included
in the Company's Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 1996 filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all
adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, to fairly present
the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The
results of operations for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30,
1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
Note C - Line of Credit:
During the first quarter of 1997 the Company established a $500,000
line of credit with Silicon Valley Bank. The line of credit is secured by the
Company's assets and contains various restrictive covenants, including a
restriction on dividends. The line of credit has an interest rate of prime plus
1 1/2% and expires in March 1998.
<PAGE>
Note D - Capitalization:
In May 1997, the holders of the 444,444 outstanding shares of Series A
Preferred Stock converted those shares into an equal number of shares of Class A
Common Stock.
The Company sold 266,667 shares of Class A Common Stock to Bausch &
Lomb Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in a private placement on August 4, 1997 for
$500,000, in conjunction with entering into a collaboration and sale/license
agreement with the Company. The shares are subject to certain voting and
transfer restrictions and may be redeemed at cost at the option of either the
Company or the purchaser.
<PAGE>
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company is a development stage company. Since inception of the
Company's predecessor in 1986, the Company's efforts have been principally
devoted to research and development, securing patent and trademark protection
and raising capital, most of which efforts commenced after May 1991. Except for
revenue earned since 1995 on sales of IodoZyme, the Company's sole revenue to
date has been from research and development contracts with corporate partners
and interest income.
Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements set forth below or otherwise made in writing or orally
by the Company with regard to its expectations as to financial results and other
aspects of its business may constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although the
Company makes such statements based on assumptions which it believes to be
reasonable, the Company's business is subject to significant risks and there can
be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from the
Company's expectations. Accordingly, the Company hereby identifies the following
important factors, among others, which could cause its results to differ from
any results which might be projected, forecasted or estimated by the Company in
any such forward-looking statements: (i) the timely development and acceptance
of new products, (ii) the achievement of product development milestones by the
Company's corporate partners, (iii) the timely receipt of regulatory clearances
required to market the Company's proposed products, (iv) the continued sale of
IodoZyme, the Company's only product, and (v) the Company's ability to enter
into new arrangements with corporate partners.
Results of Operations
Symbollon's net income for the three month period ended September 30,
1997 was $506,326, reflecting an increase of $751,802 from a net loss of
$245,476 in the comparable 1996 period. Symbollon's net income for the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1997 was $141,297, reflecting an increase
of $859,482 from a net loss of $718,185 in the comparable 1996 period. The
increased net income for the three-month period resulted primarily from
increased license fees from research and development contracts and increased
product revenues, partially offset by decreased contract revenues. The net
increased income for the nine-month period resulted primarily from decreased
expenses and increased license fees and product revenues, partially offset by
decreased contract revenues. The Company may incur operating losses in future
based on its plan to increase expenditures to fund clinical trials in the area
of fibrocystic breast disease.
Product revenues from sales of IodoZyme for the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1997 were $72,000 and $234,338, respectively,
reflecting an increase of $38,491 and $184,097, respectively, from the product
sales in the comparable 1996 periods. The increased sales reflect in part the
Company's efforts with its marketing partner, West Agro, Inc., to broaden the
<PAGE>
distribution of the product. At September 30, 1997, Symbollon's backlog for
IodoZyme was approximately $142,000 which is expected to be satisfied during the
fourth quarter.
The gross profit margin on product sales for the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1997 were 43% and 46%, compared to 32% and 28%,
respectively, in the comparable 1996 periods. The increase in the gross profit
margin on product sales for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30,
1997 was primarily due to increased sales volume.
Contract revenues for the three and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1997 were $17,737 and $66,324, respectively, reflecting a decrease of
$33,792 and $67,792, respectively, from the contract revenues in the comparable
1996 periods. License fees for the three and nine-month periods ended September
30, 1997 were $750,000, reflecting an increase of $750,000 and $250,000,
respectively, from the license fees in the comparable 1996 periods. In August
1997, the Company entered into a new corporate relationship in the field of
ophthalmics. The increase in license fees in fiscal 1997 was related to the new
corporate relationship. The decrease in contract revenues in fiscal 1997 was
related to a decrease in the services rendered by the Company under its
corporate relationship in the field of dermatology.
Research and development expenses for the three and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1997 were $145,632 and $428,821, respectively, reflecting a
decrease of $74,785 and $443,931, respectively, from the research and
development expenses in the comparable 1996 periods. The decreases resulted from
decreases in labor costs associated with a reduction in the work force and the
discontinuation of the development expenses, including third party testing and
consultant fees, related to the preparation of the 510(k) filing with the
Federal Food and Drug Administration covering the Company's high level
disinfectant formulation, which has been abandoned. The Company anticipates that
research and development expenses will likely increase above current levels as
it prepares to begin clinical trials in the area of fibrocystic breast disease
in 1998.
General and administrative expenses for the three and nine-month
periods ended September 30, 1997 were $164,253 and $403,421, respectively,
reflecting an increase of $53,688 and a decrease of $157,835, respectively, from
the general and administrative expenses in the comparable 1996 periods. The
increase for the three-month period resulted primarily from increased payments
to third parties related to license fees received. The decrease for the
nine-month period resulted primarily from decreased legal fees, insurance costs
and director fees. The Company anticipates that general and administrative
expenses will remain at current levels for the remainder of 1997.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has funded its activities through proceeds from Class A
Warrant exercises, its initial public offering and private placements of equity
and debt securities and through loans from principal stockholders and its bank.
Independent research and development activities regarding the Company's
technology has been funded through SBIR grants received and administered by
<PAGE>
Biomedical Development Corporation. As of September 30, 1997, the Company had
working capital of $2,248,641.
The Company has incurred a cumulative loss through September 30, 1997
of $5,191,782. However, the Company believes that it has the necessary liquidity
and capital resources, together with anticipated future revenues, to sustain
planned operations for the twelve months following September 30, 1997. In the
event that the Company's internal estimates relating to its planned revenues or
expenditures prove materially inaccurate, the Company may be required to
reallocate funds among its planned activities and curtail certain planned
expenditures. In any event, the Company anticipates that it will require
additional funds after September 30, 1998.
During the remainder of 1997, the Company anticipates paying
approximately $70,000 as compensation for its current executive officers, and
approximately $7,088 for lease payments on its facilities. There are no planned
capital expenditures for the remainder of 1997. At December 31, 1996, the
Company had a net operating loss carryforward for Federal income tax purposes of
approximately $5,010,000 expiring through 2011.
Part II - Other Information
Item 2. Changes in Securities
See Note D above regarding the Company's private placement (exempt from
registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933) on August
4, 1997 of 266,667 shares of Class A Common Stock to Bausch & Lomb
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Item 5. Other Information
On August 14, 1997, the Company amended its Collaboration and License
Agreement with Oclassen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. primarily to account for delays
incurred in the development program. The original agreement had anticipated that
an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) covering use of the Company's
chemistry in dermatology would have been filed by August 1997; however, the
development process has not advanced sufficiently to warrant such filing. Along
with certain other changes, in the amendment Symbollon agreed to remove the time
based payment requirement for the next two milestones which were to be paid on
May 1998 and 1999. Such milestone payments will now be payable only with the
occurrence of certain events. Additionally, the amendment deferred a portion
of a milestone payment that was due in August 1997 until November 11, 1997.
Oclassen has failed to pay such deferred milestone payment as required by the
amendment. The parties are discussing the future of the relationship, and
Symbollon is hopeful that the relationship will proceed and that the outstanding
obligations will be satisfied. If the parties are not able to reach agreement
regarding the payment of the outstanding obligations, it is likely that such
relationship will terminate.

AMENDMENT TO COLLABORATION AND LICENSE AGREEMENT
This Amendment to the Collaboration and License Agreement by and
between Oclassen Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Symbollon Corporation dated as of May
14, 1996 (the "Agreement") is made as of this 14th day of August, 1997. All
capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in
the Agreement.
This Amendment, when signed by the parties to the Agreement, shall
constitute a written amendment in accordance with Section 17.6 of the Agreement.
The parties hereby agree that the Agreement shall be amended as follows:
1. The first sentence of Section 2.1 after the heading "Formation" shall be
deleted and replaced with the following language "The Joint Development
Committee will be comprised of five (5) members with three (3) being appointed
and replaced by Oclassen and two (2) being appointed and replaced by Symbollon."
2. Exhibit C shall be amended to provide that the three (3) members of the Joint
Development Committee appointed by Oclassen are as follows: "1. David Hsia; 2.
Thomas Ho; 3. Mark Taylor"
3. Section 2.3 shall be deleted in its entirety.
4. Section 2.4 shall be deleted and replaced with the following language:
"If at any time during the term of this Agreement, Oclassen
wishes to revise the marketing strategy for any Product

concurrently with prescription sales, it may so notify the
JDC. If the JDC fails to reach unanimous agreement on such
switch, the top executive officer of each party will confer as
soon as reasonably practicable and each use commercially
reasonable efforts to effect resolution. Should such
conference not resolve the disagreement, the JDC will then
determine, by majority vote, whether to permit the desired
revision to the marketing strategy. If an OTC marketing
strategy is adopted following the process contemplated by this
paragraph, then upon agreement by the parties of Symbollon's
economic return with respect thereto, which return the parties
will negotiate in good faith, Oclassen will have the exclusive
right to make, have made, use, sell and have sold such Product
in the OTC market, and the license granted under Section 4.1
shall be deemed to be amended to reflect such right. Should
the parties not reach agreement with respect to Symbollon's
economic return in connection with OTC sales, such matter will
be decided by arbitration under Section 17.3"
5. In Subsection (b) of Section 3.2 the language "pay Symbollon for its work

Plan (but not for any non-research work, including JDC
<PAGE>
meetings, travel to or from meetings, discussions regarding the Agreement
itself, presentations and preparations for such presentations)".
6. In Section 4.1 the language "and/or co-promotion pursuant to Section 4.2(b)"
shall be inserted following the words "research and development". The words
"(but not distribution)" shall be deleted.
7. Subsection 4.2(b)(d) shall be deleted and replaced with the following
