                            (a development stage company)
                 Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                                  September 30, 1996

1.  SuperGen, Inc. is a development stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to
    the acquisition, development and commercialization of products intended to
    treat life threatening diseases, particularly cancer and blood cell
    (hematological) disorders, and other serious conditions such as obesity.
    SuperGen is developing its anticancer portfolio of nine generic products
    and five enhanced or "supergeneric" products. The Company is also
    developing a group of proprietary blood cell disorder products for the
    treatment of anemia associated with chemotherapy, radiotherapy, renal
    failure and aplastic anemia. SuperGen's proprietary obesity pill, which has
    shown promise in early preclinical and animal studies for chronic genetic
    obesity, general obesity and type II diabetes, has been cleared by the U.S.
    Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") for the commencement of Phase II
    human clinical studies.

2.  The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements at
    September 30, 1996 and 1995 and for the periods then ended, including the
    period from inception to date, have been prepared in accordance with
    generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information
    on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements for the nine
    month period ended December 31,1995.  The preparation of financial 
    statements in conformity with those principles requires management to 
    make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the 
    financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ 
    from those estimates.  The condensed consolidated financial statements 
    for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 include the 
    accounts of its wholly-owned Israeli subsidiary, Rubicon Pharmaceuticals, 
    Ltd. formed in June 1996.  The results of operations to date have been 
    immaterial and all intercompany transactions and balances have been 
    eliminated. The statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal 
    recurring accruals) which in the opinion of the Company's management are 
    necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim and 
    inception to date periods presented.  The interim results are not 
    necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year. 
    The accompanying condensed financial statements should be read in 
    conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements for the nine 
    month period ended December 31, 1995 which are included in the prospectus 
    dated March 13, 1996.

3.  Net loss per share information is computed using the weighted average
    number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period.  Common
    equivalent shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and
    warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock (using the
    treasury stock method) are not included in the calculation of the net loss
    per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and
    1995, because the effect of their inclusion is anti-dilutive.  In
    accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting
    Bulletins, common equivalent shares issued by the Company at prices 
    below the public offering price of $6.00 per share during the period 
    beginning one year prior to the initial filing of the registration 
    statement for the Company's initial public offering have been included in 
    the calculation as if they were outstanding for all periods through 
    December 31, 1995 (using the treasury stock method and the initial public 
    offering price of $6.00 per share).

                                          6

4.  On September 30, 1996, the Company purchased from Warner-Lambert Company 
    (Warner Lambert) the exclusive rights to the anticancer drug Pentostatin 
    (the "Drug") for the United States, Canada and Mexico. The Company also 
    acquired certain assets pertaining to the Drug, including all of 
    Warner-Lambert's crude concentrate form of the Drug and certain of its 
    finished goods inventory; the trademarks, patents and data relating  to 
    the manufacture of the Drug; the U. S. New Drug Application relating to 
    the Drug (including an Orphan Drug Designation); the Canadian New Drug 
    Submission; and certain clinical studies.  On September 30, 1996, the
    Company paid consideration of $2,073,000 in cash and $1,000,000 in
    unregistered restricted shares of common stock of the Company (which
    constituted 71,813 shares of such stock, and which was, valued at $700,000
    for accounting purposes).  Furthermore, the Company agreed to pay an
    additional $500,000 in cash upon the earlier of the date of FDA approval
    (permitting the Company to purify the Drug from the crude concentrate at
    the Company's designated manufacturing facilities) or December 31, 1997. Of
    the total consideration of $3,273,000, $1,561,000 has been allocated to 
    inventory, including $250,000 to raw materials inventory, $1,270,000 to 
    developed technology, which will be amortized to future cost of sales of 
    the Drug, and $442,000 as a charge for the acquisition of in-process 
    technology.

                       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                    FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Preliminary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company's actual results may differ
materially from the results projected in the forward-looking statements. Factors
that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those
discussed under "Factors Affecting Future Operating Results."

Results of Operations


INCEPTION TO DATE.
From the inception of the Company in 1991 through September 30, 1996 the Company
incurred a cumulative net loss of approximately $21.2 million, including a
non-cash charge of $4.9 million for the acquisition of in-process research and
development from two affiliated limited partnerships. The Company expects its
operating expenses to increase over the next several years as it expands its
research and development and commercialization activities and operations. The
Company expects to incur significant additional operating losses for at least
the next several years.

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1995.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 
1996 increased approximately $1,486,000 or 184% from the same period ended 
September 30, 1995. The increase is primarily the result of increased 
expenditures for preclinical and clinical trials, increased contract research 
and development costs, increased research and development personnel and the 
acquisition of in-process technology. The Company expects its research and 
development expenses to increase as it expands its product development and 
clinical trials activities.

Sales and marketing expenses increased approximately $206,000 or 355% in the 
three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995 due 
to the hiring of additional sales personnel in anticipation of the 
commencement of product sales,  increased salaries, increased travel 
expenses, promotional materials and sales demographic studies.  In the three 
months ended September 30, 1996, the Company acquired the non-exclusive 
rights to distribute three generic anticancer drugs and the exclusive rights 
to another anticancer drug (see Note 4 in Notes to Condensed Consolidated 
Financial Statements).  The Company expects sales and marketing expenses to 
continue to increase as the Company introduces its  initial generic products 
and as the Company continues its efforts to acquire generic or other products 
or marketing rights to such products.

                                          8

<PAGE>

General and Administrative expenses increased approximately $669,000 or 442% in
the three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995
due primarily to the addition of personnel, travel, consulting fees, the value
ascribed to stock options granted to vendors and other operating expenses 
associated with the increased administrative requirements of a public 
company. The Company expects general and administrative expenses to continue 
to increase to support the expected increases in both marketing and research 
and development activities and as the Company incurs expenses associated with 
being a public company.

Net interest income rose approximately $218,000 in the three months ended
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 due primarily to
higher invested cash balances resulting principally from the approximately $21.5
million of net proceeds received from the Company's initial public offering and
the exercise of the underwriter's option.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,
1995.

Research and development expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1996
increased approximately $1,812,000 or 72% over the same period in 1995. The 
increase is primarily the result of increased expenditures for preclinical 
and clinical trials, increased contract research and development costs, 
increased research and development personnel and the acquisition of in-
process technology.  There was a one-time licensing fee of $100,000 for 
technology rights acquired in the period ended September 30, 1995.

Sales and Marketing expenses increased approximately $262,000 or 167% in the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. The
increase is primarily the result of hiring additional sales personnel in 
anticipation of the commencement of product sales, increased salaries, 
increased travel expenses, promotional materials and sales demographic 
studies.

General and Administrative expenses increased approximately $984,000 or 186% 
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 over the same period in 1995.  
The increase is due primarily to the addition of personnel, travel, 
consulting fees, the value ascribed to the granting of stock options and 
other operating expenses associated with the increased administrative 
requirements of a public company.

Net Interest income increased approximately $466,000 or 498% for the nine 
months ended September 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995. The 
increase is due primarily to the higher invested cash and cash equivalents 
balances resulting principally from the proceeds of the public offering and 
the exercise of the underwriter's option.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From inception through February 1996 the Company financed its operations
primarily through private equity sales and contract research funding agreements
with affiliated limited partnerships. In March 1996 the Company completed its
initial public offering of 3.5 million Units, consisting of one share of Common
Stock and one redeemable warrant to acquire one share of Common Stock at $9.00
per share. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $18.6 million
after deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses. Additional net
proceeds of approximately $2.9 million were received in April 1996 from the
exercise of the underwriters' overallotment option.

The Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalents will satisfy its
budgeted cash requirements for approximately the next fifteen months, based on
the Company's current operating plan. The Company's current operating plan shows
that at the end of such fifteen month period the Company will require
substantial additional capital.  In addition, pursuant to an existing agreement
with Israel Chemicals, Ltd. the Company intends to fund up to $1 million
on or prior to December 31, 1997 in projects in Israel conditioned upon such 
funding serving the best interest of the Company and the financial viability 
of the proposed projects as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. 
Moreover, if the Company experiences unanticipated cash requirements during 
the fifteen month period, the Company could require additional capital to 
fund operations, continue research and development programs and pre-clinical 
and clinical testing of its potential generic, supergeneric and proprietary 
products and commercialize any products that may be developed. See "Factors 
Affecting Future Operating Results."

The Company's future expenditures and capital requirements will depend on
numerous factors, including without limitation, the progress of its research and
development programs, the progress of its clinical trials and the time and cost
involved in obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting,
defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property
rights, competing technological and market developments, the ability of the
Company to establish collaborative arrangements and the terms of any such
arrangements and the development of commercialization activities and
arrangements. The Company's cash requirements are expected to continue to
increase significantly each year as it expands its development and
commercialization activities and operations.

Pending use of its cash and cash equivalents, the Company invests in short-term,
interest bearing investment grade securities.

FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS

The future operating results of the Company are highly uncertain, and the
following factors should be carefully reviewed in addition to the other
information contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

The Company has incurred losses in every fiscal period and expects to continue 
to incur significant operating losses for the next several years.  Through 
September 30, 1996 the Company has not generated revenues from product sales. 
Although the Company acquired the right to distribute four products in the 
three months ended September 30, 1996 and sales of those products commenced 
in October 1996, there is no assurance that such sales will exceed the 
related product and selling expenses due to the intense competition and 
potential for significant selling price and gross margin erosion.  In 
addition, there is no assurance that any of the Company's proprietary 
products will ever be successfully developed, receive and maintain required 
governmental regulatory approvals, become commercially viable or achieve 
market acceptance.

The Company has no experience in manufacturing, and only limited experience 
in procuring products in commercial quantities, selling pharmaceutical 
products and negotiating, setting up or maintaining strategic relationships 
and conducting clinical trials and other late stage phases of the regulatory 
approval process. There can be no assurance that the Company will 
successfully engage in any of these activities.

The Company's need for additional funding is expected to be substantial and will
be determined by the progress and cost of the development and commercialization
of its products and other activities.  Based on the Company's current operating
plan, additional funds will be needed in approximately fifteen months.
Moreover, if the Company experiences unanticipated cash requirements during the
interim period, the Company could require additional funds much sooner.  The
source, availability and terms of such funding have not been determined.
Although funds may be received from the sale of equity securities or the
exercise of outstanding warrants and options to acquire common stock of the
Company, there is no assurance any such funding will occur.

The Company faces numerous other risks in the operation of its business,
including, but not limited to, protecting its proprietary technology and trade
secrets and not infringing those of others; attaining a competitive advantage;
entering into agreements with others to source, manufacture, market and sell its
products; attracting and retaining key personnel in research and development,
manufacturing, marketing, sales and other operational areas; managing growth, if
any; and avoiding potential claims by others in such areas as product liability
and environmental matters.

The above factors are not intended to be inclusive and there may be numerous
other areas subjecting the Company's operating results to risk.  Failure to
satisfactorily achieve any of the Company's objectives or avoid any of the above
or other risks would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business and results of operations.
