Quintiles Transnational Corp.
Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Condensed Financial Data


On May 26, 2000, Quintiles Transnational Corp. (the "Company") completed the
previously announced sale of its electronic data interchange unit, ENVOY
Corporation ("ENVOY") to Healtheon/WebMD Corporation ("Healtheon/WebMD").
Healtheon/WebMD acquired ENVOY from the Company in exchange for 35 million
shares of Healtheon/WebMD common stock and $400 million cash. The Company issued
Healtheon/WebMD a warrant to purchase up to 10 million shares of the Company's
Common Stock at $40 per share, exercisable for four years.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet at March
31, 2000 gives effect to the disposition by the Company of its wholly owned
subsidiary, ENVOY, as if the disposition had occurred at March 31, 2000 and the
unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 1999 give
effect to such disposition as if it had occurred on January 1 of each period.
ENVOY has been treated as a discontinued operation in the Company's historical
financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative
of either the results of future operations or the results of operations that
would have occurred had the disposition been consummated on the dates indicated.
The pro forma financial information is based upon currently available
information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable
under the circumstances. The unaudited pro forma financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's historical consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto previously filed in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, and the Company's Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2000.
