[1] Significant Accounting Policies

Significant accounting policies and other matters of Xechem International,  Inc.
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,  Xechem, Inc., Xechem Laboratories,  Inc. and
XetaPharm,  Inc.  (collectively  the "Company"),  are set forth in the financial
statements  for and as of the year  ended  December  31,  1997  included  in the
Company's Form 10-KSB, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

[2] Basis of Reporting

The accompanying  unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310(b)
of Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  such statements include all
adjustments  (consisting  only of normal  recurring  item) which are  considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated  financial position of the
Company at March 31, 1998 and the consolidated results of its operations for the
three  months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997 and for the  cumulative  period from
March 15,  1990  (date of  inception)  to March  31,  1998.  These  consolidated
financial  statements  should  be  read in  conjunction  with  the  consolidated
financial statements and related notes included in the Company's Form 10-KSB for
the year ended  December 31, 1997. The results of operations for the three month
periods  ended March 31,  1998 and 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the
operating results for a full year.

[3] Loss Per Share

Loss per  share  amounts  are  based on the  weighted  average  number of shares
outstanding.  Shares  issuable  upon the exercise of stock  options are excluded
from the computation  since the effect on the net loss per common share would be
anti-dilutive.  The holders of Class B 8%  Preferred  Stock and Class C Series 1
Preferred  Stock are  entitled  to  cumulative  dividends  on the $100 per share
liquidation  preference  at the rate of 8% per  annum  payable  quarterly.  This
dividend has been reflected in the  computation  of loss per share  available to
common  stockholders.  The  Class B 8%  Preferred  Stock  and  Class C  Series 1
Preferred  Stock were  converted in Common  Stock in February and January  1997,
respectively.

[4] Blech Purchase Agreement

On November 18, 1996, the Company entered into and closed the initial stage of a
stock  purchase  agreement  (the "Blech  Purchase  Agreement")  with David Blech
and/or his designees  ("Blech") providing for the sale of up to 55,000 shares of
Class C Series 2 Voting Cumulative  Preferred Stock for a purchase price of $100
per share  ($5,500,000 in the  aggregate),  or the  underlying  shares of Common
Stock. Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the Blech Purchase Agreement was amended
to extend the  purchase  period.  Through  December 31,  1997,  Blech  purchased
95,620,000 shares of Common Stock for a total of $4,781,000. In the three months
ended March 31, 1998,  Blech purchased  14,380,000  shares of Common Stock for a
total of $719,000.  This  completed  the  obligations  under the Blech  Purchase
Agreement. (See Notes 7 and 8).

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement,  the Company, Dr. Pandey and Blech have also
entered into a stockholder's agreement, which, among other things: (i) generally
prohibits the sale of any of Dr. Pandey's shares of capital stock of the Company
for a period of five  years,  except with the  consent of Blech;  (ii)  provides
Blech with the right to sell his pro rata  portion  (relative to the holdings of
Dr.  Pandey) of any  proposed  sales of shares by Dr.  Pandey,  and a reciprocal
right in favor of Dr.  Pandey to sell his pro rata portion of any shares sold by
Blech; (iii) requires Blech to vote for Dr. Pandey as a director of the Company,
and to use his efforts to cause Dr.  Pandey to remain  Chairman,  President  and
chief  executive  officer of the  Company;  (iv)  requires  the  Company and its
directors (subject to their fiduciary duties to the Company and the shareholders
of the  Company) to take such actions as Blech may request to elect his nominees
to constitute a majority of the  directors of the Company;  and (v) provides for
certain demand and piggyback registration rights in favor of Blech.

    such entity, which may be deemed to be an affiliate of Dr. Pandey. The lease
    provides  the Company with renewal  options for three  additional  five year
    periods.  Management  has stated its intention to renew.  Rent expense under
    the  operating  lease  amounted to $34,027 and $37,487 for the three  months

[8] Subsequent Events

(A) In the period from May 4, 1998 to July 17,  1998,  the Company has  received
additional   loans  of  $560,000  from  David  Blech  and  five   non-affiliated
individuals.  The  Company  intends to conduct a rights  offering  (the  "Rights
Offering"),  pursuant  to which it will offer to those  holders  ("Holders")  of
Xechem's Common Stock, who purchased Common Stock pursuant to the Blech Purchase
Agreement,  the right to subscribe  for an aggregate of  275,000,000  additional
shares of Common Stock at a price of $.01 per share, subject to the proviso that
until sufficient Common Stock is authorized for issuance, the Company will issue
a new series of Class C Preferred Shares which will be converted to Common Stock
when  sufficient  Common  Stock is  authorized.  If the  offering  is not  fully
subscribed,  the Company may be unable to obtain substitute financing and may be
unable to meet its  obligations or continue its  operations.  The Company cannot
offer any assurances  that all or any shares of Common Stock will be sold in the
Rights Offering and it is expected that additional  funds will have to be raised
by the  Company to support  ongoing  operations  even if the Rights  Offering is
fully  subscribed.  The  Company  is  currently  seeking  additional  sources of
financing.

(B) Pro Forma - When the (i) loans  payable of $999,000 (See Note 7), (ii) funds
of $235,545  received,  and (iii) additional funding of $560,000 in anticipation
of the Rights  Offering are  converted  into equity,  a pro forma  balance sheet

of Kensington  Wells  Incorporated  for payment of $40,000 alleged to be due per
the fee agreement between the Company and Kensington Wells Incorporated  related
to the  introduction of David Blech to the Company.  The Company had written off
this purported obligation in 1997 based upon certain defenses it has asserted to
this  obligation.  The Company is  presently in the  discovery  process with the
trustee  and  there can be no  assurances  as to  whether  the  Company  will be
required to pay some or all of this obligation.

Revenue

    The $40,800 increase in revenue from the quarter ended March 31, 1997 to the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 was  attributable  to an increase in product sales.
There were no service  sales in the quarter ended March 31, 1998 and the quarter
ended  March 31,  1997.  The  product  sales of  $44,100  were by the  Company's

health products, commonly known as nutraceuticals, in June 1996.

      1 Some of the  statements  included in Item 2,  Management  Discussion and
Analysis,  may be  considered  to be  "forward  looking  statements"  since such
statements relate to matters which have not yet occurred.  For example,  phrases
such as "the Company  anticipates,"  "believes" or "expects" indicate that it is
possible that the event anticipated,  believed or expected may not occur. Should
such event not occur,  then the result which the Company  expected  also may not
occur or occur in a different manner, which may be more or less favorable to the
Company.  The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly  release the
result of any revisions to the forward  looking  statements  that may be made to
reflect any future events or circumstances.

Research and Development

    The Company's  research and development  expenditures  continue to emphasize
compounds for generic  anticancer,  antiviral and antibiotic products that enjoy
significant  market  demand  but are no longer  subject  to  patent  protection.
Research and  development  expenditures  increased  by $63,900 to  $412,700,  or
18.3%,  for the quarter  ended  March 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter  ended
March 31, 1997.

    Expenditures  on the  development  of the  Company's  process for  producing
paclitaxel of $72,000 represents a decrease of $39,700, or 35.5%, as compared to
the quarter ended March 31, 1997.  Research and development  costs for bleomycin
were $9,800 for the  quarter  ended March 31,  1998,  an increase of $9,800,  or
100%, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

    XetaPharm  had  research  and  development  expenses of $58,800,  for market
readiness on alternative medicines and nutraceuticals in the quarter ended March
31, 1998.  This  represents a net increase of $39,000 of expenses for the period
ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the period ended March 31, 1997.

    Two  cholesterol-lowering  projects  represented  $40,200 of increased costs
with no  comparison  in 1997.  The  Company's  other  research  and  development
projects,  both for customers and in-house  research,  totaled  $232,000 for the
quarter  ended March 31,  1998,  an  increase of $14,800,  or 6.8% from the same
period in 1997.

    The  Company  anticipates  that,  subject to the  availability  of  funding,
research and development  expenditures will continue to increase for paclitaxel,
as well as the development of other  anticancer,  antiviral and memory enhancing
drugs.

Rent, General and Administrative

    Rent, general and administrative  expenses decreased $86,200,  or 21.1%, for
the quarter  ended  March 31,  1998 as  compared to the quarter  ended March 31,
1997. A significant  expense  increase for the period ended March 31, 1998,  was
salary and wages of $10,600.  This  increase was offset by expense  decreases of
$79,200 which included: NASDAQ fees $34,700;  Promotions $31,000; and Consulting
$13,500.

    Legal and accounting  expenses  totaled  $90,400 for the quarter ended March
31, 1998.  (This  represents a decrease of $22,300 or 19.8%,  as compared to the
same period in 1997.) Other general and administrative costs increased $4,800 or
2.8%, to $175,000, in 1998 compared to the same period in 1997.

    The Company  anticipates that, provided adequate funding is available to the
Company,  general and  administrative  expenses will increase as a result of the
expansion  of its  operations  and  marketing  efforts.  The  Company's  planned
activities will require the addition of new personnel, including management, and
the  development of additional  expertise in areas such as preclinical  testing,
clinical trial management,  regulatory affairs, manufacturing and marketing. The
exact number and nature of persons  hired,  and the Company's  expenses for such
persons,  will  depend on many  factors,  including  the  capabilities  of those
persons who seek employment with the Company and the  availability of funding to
finance these efforts.

    The Company's loss from operations totaled $690,700,  a decrease of $63,100,
or 8.4%,  for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the same period in
1997, and is primarily a result of the foregoing.

    Interest expense increased approximately $1,000, or 31.3%, to $4,200, in the
quarter ended March 31, 1998 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources; Plan of Operations

    On March 31, 1998,  the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  of $106,800,
negative working capital of $1,286,600 and stockholder's equity of $328,997.

    As a result of its net losses  through  December  31,  1997 and  accumulated
deficit  since  inception,  the  Company's  accountants,  in their report on the
Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997, included an
explanatory  paragraph indicating there is substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company's  research and development
activities  are at an early stage and the time and money  required to  determine
the commercial value and marketability of the Company's proposed products cannot
be estimated  with  precision.  The Company  expects  research  and  development
activities  to  continue  to  require   significant  cost  expenditures  for  an
indefinite period in the future.

    In May 1995,  the Company filed a Drug Master File ("DMF") with the Food and
Drug  Administration  ("FDA")  for the  Company's  facilities.  The  Company has
completed its technology validation and filed a DMF for paclitaxel in June 1997;
however,  the  Company's  facilities  have  yet to be  inspected  by the FDA for
current Good Manufacturing  Practices ("cGMPs").  The Company has sufficient raw
materials  to produce  commercial  bulk  paclitaxel  which has a market value of
approximately  $2,000,000 at current prices and anticipates,  but can provide no
assurances,  that it will  commence  sales of  paclitaxel  in the  international
market in 1999.  Although  the  Company  has the  capability  to, and may,  sell
paclitaxel  for  research  purposes,  to date,  the Company has not received any
revenues from sales of paclitaxel  for human  consumption  and has received only
minimal  revenues from other  product sales or sales of paclitaxel  for research
and development.  As a result,  during 1997, the Company determined to write off
its crude paclitaxel,  work-in-process paclitaxel and finished (pure) paclitaxel
inventory  in the amount of  $1,020,000.  Prior to  commencing  such sales,  the
Company must file for and obtain approvals from appropriate  regulatory agencies
in foreign  jurisdictions.  Additionally,  to the extent the  Company  elects to
manufacture bulk paclitaxel domestically and ship it overseas for packaging, the
Company's  facilities  must be approved  for cGMP and the product must either be
approved for an investigational  new drug exemption (not currently so approved),
or deemed in compliance with the laws of 24 industrialized  "tier one" countries
(not yet so approved).  Otherwise,  the Company can produce the product entirely
overseas;  however,  it most likely would subcontract  production to others from
raw material or partially  processed raw material  provided by the Company,  and
might also enter into joint venture or other marketing  arrangements for sale of
the product overseas.  There can be no such assurances that necessary  approvals
will not be delayed or subject to conditions or that the Company will be able to
meet such  conditions.  In addition,  the Company has no experience in marketing
pharmaceutical products for human consumption and there can be no assurance that
the Company will be able to successfully  market its paclitaxel product in bulk,
or indirectly through others, or be able to obtain satisfactory packaging of the
product in single dosage vials from an independent manufacturer.

    The Company is negotiating "Strategic Alliance Agreements" with two European
companies to license  production,  marketing and selling of bulk and  injectable
paclitaxel. The companies will be responsible for the registration of injectable
paclitaxel in their  respective  countries.  Xechem will also grant a license to
the companies to manufacture and sell Xechem's  patented new paclitaxel  analogs
as well as a new paclitaxel  formulation  without  Cremophor(TM) or ethanol.  In
return,  Xechem will be cross-licensed  by the companies to produce,  market and
sell certain key pharmaceutical  products in the United States and India. Xechem
will be responsible  for the  registration of these products with the FDA. There
can be no  assurances  that the Company  will sell any of these  products in the
international market.

    Xechem  has  expended  and will  continue  to  expend  substantial  funds in
connection  with the research and  development  of its products.  As a result of
these  expenditures,  and even with revenues  anticipated  from  commencement of
sales of paclitaxel,  the Company  anticipates that losses will continue for the
foreseeable future.


                                       15

    Xechem's  planned  activities  will require the  addition of new  personnel,
including  management,  and the continued development of expertise in areas such
as  preclinical   testing,   clinical  trial  management,   regulatory  affairs,
manufacturing and marketing. Further, if Xechem receives regulatory approval for
any of  its  products,  in  the  United  States  or  elsewhere,  it  will  incur
substantial  expenditures  to develop  its  manufacturing,  sales and  marketing
capabilities  and/or  subcontract or joint venture these activities with others.
There can be no assurance that Xechem will ever recognize revenue or profit from
any such products.  In addition,  Xechem may encounter  unanticipated  problems,
including  developmental,  regulatory,  manufacturing or marketing difficulties,
some of which may be beyond  Xechem's  ability to  resolve.  Xechem may lack the
capacity to produce its products in-house and there can be no assurances that it
will be able to locate suitable  contract  manufacturers or be able to have them
produce products at satisfactory prices.

    On November 18, 1996, the Company  entered into and closed the initial stage
of a stock purchase agreement (the "Blech Purchase  Agreement") with David Blech
and/or his designees  ("Blech") providing for the sale of up to 55,000 shares of
Class C Series 2 Voting  Cumulative  Preferred  Stock (the  "Series 2  Preferred
Shares") for a purchase price of $100 per share  ($5,500,000 in the  aggregate),
or the underlying  shares of Common Stock.  Subsequent to December 31, 1996, the
Blech  Purchase  Agreement  was amended to extend the purchase  period.  Through
December 31, 1997, Blech purchased 95,620,000 shares of Common Stock for a total
of  $4,781,000.  Subsequent  to December 31, 1997,  Blech  purchased  14,380,000
shares of  Common  Stock  for a total of  $719,00.  To date,  cash  payments  of
$5,500,000  have been made under the Blech  Purchase  Agreement and  110,000,000
shares  of  Common  Stock  have  been  issued  thereunder.  This  completed  the
obligations under the Blech Purchase Agreement.

    The Company continues to apply to various governmental  agencies to fund its
research on specific  projects  and those  projects  which are in the  Company's
expertise.

    The Company  intends to conduct a rights  offering (the "Rights  Offering"),
pursuant to which it will offer to those holders  ("Holders") of Xechem's Common
Stock, who purchased Common Stock pursuant to the Blech Purchase Agreement,  the
right to subscribe for an aggregate of 275,000,000  additional  shares of Common
Stock at a price of $.01 per share, subject to the proviso that until sufficient
Common Stock is authorized for issuance,  the Company will issue a new series of
Class C Preferred Shares which will be converted to Common Stock when sufficient
Common Stock is authorized. If the offering is not fully subscribed, the Company
may be  unable  to  obtain  substitute  financing  and may be unable to meet its
obligations or continue its operations.  The Company cannot offer any assurances
that all or any shares of Common  Stock will be sold in the Rights  Offering and
it is expected  that  additional  funds will have to be raised by the Company to
support ongoing operations even if the Rights Offering is fully subscribed.
The Company is currently seeking additional sources of financing.
