              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



A.      Basis of Presentation

        Intercardia, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware in March 1994. The
"Company" refers collectively to Intercardia, Inc. ("Intercardia") and its
majority-owned subsidiaries, CPEC, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("CPEC"), Aeolus
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Aeolus"), and Renaissance Cell
Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Renaissance"). As of December 31,
1997, Intercardia owned 80.1% of the outstanding stock of CPEC, 65.8% of the
outstanding stock of Aeolus and 79.6% of the outstanding stock of Renaissance.
Intercardia is a majority-owned subsidiary of Interneuron Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
("Interneuron"). As of December 31, 1997, Interneuron owned 61.2% of the
outstanding capital stock of Intercardia and the 19.9% of the outstanding stock
of CPEC not owned by Intercardia.

        The Company's strategy is to be a leader in the discovery, development
and commercialization of therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular,
pulmonary, infectious and other diseases. To date, the Company has directed the
majority of its efforts toward the development and clinical trials of BEXTRA(R)
(bucindolol), a compound currently in Phase III clinical trials for the
treatment of congestive heart failure. This clinical trial, which commenced in
June 1995, is known as the Beta-blocker Evaluation of Survival Trial (the "BEST
Study") and is sponsored by the National Institutes of Health and the Department
of Veterans Affairs.

        The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Intercardia and its subsidiaries, CPEC, Aeolus and Renaissance. All significant
intercompany activity has been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements
included herein have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of
management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include
all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the consolidated financial position, results of operations and
cash flows of the Company. The unaudited consolidated financial statements
included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated
financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997 ("Fiscal
1997"). Results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the
results for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year.

        As of December 31, 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". SFAS No. 128
replaced the previously


                                       6
<PAGE>



reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted
earnings per share. Unlike primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share
excludes any dilutive effects of stock options and warrants. All earnings per
share amounts for all periods have been presented to conform to SFAS No. 128
requirements. There was no effect on the earnings per share disclosures as a
result of adopting SFAS No. 128 for the three months ended December 31, 1997.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996, the basic earnings per share was
$0.18 and the diluted earnings per share was $0.16.

        The Company will adopt SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income,"
for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1999. SFAS No. 130 establishes
standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components
in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. Management has not
determined the effect of adopting SFAS No. 130.

        The Company will adopt SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information", for the fiscal year ending September 30,
1999. SFAS No. 131 specifies revised guidelines for determining an entity's
operating segments and the type and level of financial information to be
disclosed. Management has not determined the effect of adopting SFAS No. 131.

B.       Acquisition

         On November 5, 1997, Intercardia executed a letter of intent ("Letter
of Intent") to purchase all of the outstanding stock of Transcell Technologies,
Inc. ("Transcell") and certain related technology owned by Interneuron in
exchange for Intercardia Common Stock with an aggregate market value of
approximately $15,000,000 to $16,000,000. In addition, Intercardia will issue
Intercardia replacement stock options with a value of approximately $3,000,000
to $4,000,000 to Transcell employees and consultants. Transcell is a
majority-owned subsidiary of Interneuron and is conducting research and
development utilizing carbohydrate-based combinatorial chemistry. The
acquisition of Interneuron's ownership interest in Transcell will be treated in
a manner similar to a "pooling-of-interests" and the acquisition of the
non-Interneuron ownership interest will be accounted for by using the "purchase"
method of accounting. The transaction is subject to final due diligence,
execution of a definitive agreement and approval by Transcell and Intercardia
stockholders.

        Under the terms of the Letter of Intent, Transcell stockholders will
receive Intercardia Common Stock in three installments. The first installment,
of approximately $6,000,000, will be made upon closing the transaction (the
"Closing"). The second and third installments will each consist of approximately
$3,000,000 of Intercardia Common Stock, as valued at each issuance date, and
will be issued 15 and 21 months after Closing. In exchange for certain license
and technology rights owned by Interneuron, and for Interneuron's continuing
guarantee of certain of Transcell's lease obligations, Intercardia will issue to
Interneuron additional shares of Intercardia Common Stock at Closing of
approximately $3,000,000 and will pay Interneuron a royalty on net sales of
certain products that may result from a research collaboration originally
entered into among Transcell, Interneuron and Merck & Co., Inc. ("Merck"). The
actual market value of the 


                                       7
<PAGE>

Intercardia Common Stock to be issued in the transaction may be decreased or
increased based upon the market price of Intercardia's stock at Closing.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

Introduction

        Statements in this Form 10-Q that are not descriptions of historical
facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and
uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently
anticipated due to a number of factors, including those set forth herein and in
the Company's other SEC filings, including, in particular, risks relating to
uncertainties relating to clinical trials, dependence on collaborative partners,
the early stage of products under development, dependence on one product,
government regulations, risks relating to acquisitions and competition. The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
report and the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 1997.

        The Company's strategy is to be a leader in the discovery, development
and commercialization of therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular,
pulmonary, infectious and other diseases. To date, the Company has directed the
majority of its efforts toward the development and clinical trials of BEXTRA
(bucindolol), a compound currently in Phase III clinical trials for the
treatment of congestive heart failure.

         On November 5, 1997, Intercardia executed the Letter of Intent to
purchase all of the outstanding stock of Transcell and certain related
technology owned by Interneuron in exchange for Intercardia Common Stock with an
aggregate market value of approximately $15,000,000 to $16,000,000. In addition,
Intercardia will issue Intercardia replacement stock options with a value of
approximately $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 to Transcell employees and consultants.
Transcell is a majority-owned subsidiary of Interneuron and is conducting
research and development utilizing carbohydrate-based combinatorial chemistry.
Under the terms of the Letter of Intent, Transcell stockholders will receive
Intercardia Common Stock in three installments. The first installment,
representing approximately $6,000,000, will be made upon the Closing. The second
and third installments will each consist of approximately $3,000,000 of
Intercardia Common Stock, as valued at each issuance date, and will be issued 15
and 21 months after Closing. In exchange for certain license and technology
rights owned by Interneuron, and for Interneuron's continuing guarantee of
certain of Transcell's lease obligations, Intercardia will issue to Interneuron
additional shares of Intercardia Common Stock at Closing of approximately
$3,000,000 and will pay Interneuron a royalty on net sales of certain products
that may result from a research collaboration originally entered into among
Transcell, Interneuron and Merck. The actual market value of the Intercardia
Common Stock issued in the transaction may be decreased or increased based upon
the market price of Intercardia's stock at Closing. The acquisition of
Interneuron's ownership interest in Transcell will be treated in a manner
similar to a "pooling-of-interests" and the acquisition of the non-Interneuron
ownership interest will be accounted for by using the "purchase" method of
accounting. The Company expects that, as of Closing, it will incur charges to
operations for the purchase of the non-Interneuron portion of in-process
research and development, which is estimated to be $6,000,000 to $8,000,000
(based on Intercardia's current

                                       9
<PAGE>
stock price of approximately $17.00 per share). The actual charges could
be lower or greater, depending in part on Intercardia's stock price at Closing.
The Company will incur additional future charges relating to certain replacement
stock options to be issued pursuant to the transaction. The acquisition is
subject to final due diligence, execution of a definitive agreement and approval
by Transcell and Intercardia stockholders.

Results of Operations

         The Company incurred a net loss of $1,208,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1997, versus net income of $1,222,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1996. The net loss for the three months ended December 31,
1997 primarily resulted from expenses incurred for the development of bucindolol
and research and development ("R&D") costs incurred by Aeolus and Renaissance.
The net income for the three months ended December 31, 1996 resulted primarily
from the payment received from BASF Pharma/Knoll AG ("Knoll") pursuant to the
execution of the Company's collaboration with Knoll (the "Knoll Collaboration").

         Contract and license fee revenue of approximately $217,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 1997 included contract revenue payments from
Astra Merck, Inc. ("Astra Merck") pursuant to the Company's collaboration with
Astra Merck (the "Astra Merck Collaboration"). Contract and license fee revenue
for the three months ended December 31, 1996 included approximately $2,143,000
received from Knoll pursuant to the execution of the Knoll Collaboration.

         R&D expenses for the Company increased by $792,000 (151%) to $1,315,000
for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from $523,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 1996, primarily due to increased bucindolol and general
development expenses (approximately $339,000), increased Aeolus R&D expenses
(approximately $314,000) and increased Renaissance R&D expenses (approximately
$139,000).

         The increase in bucindolol development expenses was primarily due to
additional personnel expenses (approximately $134,000), costs related to the
development of bucindolol for Europe (approximately $52,000), increased costs
for development of a once-daily formulation (approximately $45,000) and other
R&D costs.

         The Astra Merck Collaboration also requires Astra Merck to pay for
certain expenses related to the development of the twice-daily formulation of
bucindolol for the United States. During the three months ended December 31,
1997, Astra Merck assumed liabilities on the Company's behalf of approximately
$1,219,000. Since the inception of the Astra Merck Collaboration, Astra Merck
has assumed liabilities totaling approximately $11,578,000 on the Company's
behalf. These additional amounts did not flow through the Company's Statements
of Operations, as they were offset against related expenses. As of December 31,
1997, the Company's Balance Sheet included approximately $1,058,000 of accounts
receivable due from Astra Merck and approximately $900,000 of accrued expenses
related to obligations assumed by Astra Merck.



                                       10
<PAGE>
         Aeolus R&D expenses increased by approximately $314,000 (159%) to
approximately $511,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1997 from
approximately $197,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1996, as Aeolus
expanded its antioxidant small molecule research program. This increase was
primarily due to sponsored research at universities ($125,000), increased patent
fees (approximately $60,000) and increased contracted chemistry costs
(approximately $57,000).

         Renaissance R&D expenses for the three months ended December 31, 1997
were approximately $139,000 for its liver stem cell program. Intercardia
acquired 79.6% of the outstanding capital stock of Renaissance in September
1997.

         General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $88,000
(17%) to approximately $619,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1997
from approximately $531,000 for the three months ended December 31, 1996,
primarily due to expenses related to the proposed acquisition of Transcell.

         The minority interest in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for
the three months ended December 31, 1996 related to the 19.9% minority interest
in the net income earned by CPEC for the three months ended December 31, 1996.
The net loss incurred by CPEC for Fiscal 1997 resulted in the reversal of all
minority interest balances as of September 30, 1997.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         As of December 31, 1997, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and
marketable securities of approximately $27,620,000, which was approximately
$9,398,000 less than the balance at September 30, 1997, primarily due to a
$10,000,000 contract payment made pursuant to the Astra Merck Collaboration in
December 1997 in conjunction with the development of bucindolol in the United
States. Accrued expenses decreased by approximately $9,836,000 to $1,529,000, as
the $10,000,000 Astra Merck payment was included in accrued expenses as of
September 30, 1997.

         The Company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance
is expected to continue to decrease during the remainder of the fiscal year
ending September 30, 1998 ("Fiscal 1998"), due primarily to (1) lower contract
revenue for Fiscal 1998 than Fiscal 1997, which included payments of
approximately $3,480,000 made by Knoll pursuant to the Knoll Collaboration, (2)
a decrease in investment income due to lower cash, cash equivalent and
marketable securities balances, and (3) increased expenses due to expanded
operations, including costs associated with proposed clinical trials of
bucindolol in Europe, a full year of operations for Renaissance and additional
operating expenses of Transcell after completion of the proposed acquisition.

         In connection with its acquisition of CPEC, the Company is committed to
provide certain support to the BEST Study. The Company is committed to provide
up to $2,000,000 during the course of the BEST Study, of which $1,750,000 had
been paid as of December 31, 1997, as well as drug supplies and monitoring costs
of the study expected to aggregate an additional



                                       11

$2,500,000. The Astra Merck Collaboration provides Astra Merck with U.S.
marketing rights to a twice-daily formulation of bucindolol and obligates Astra
Merck to fund future U.S. development, marketing and manufacturing costs and to
assume the Company's funding obligation for the BEST Study and royalty
obligation to Bristol-Myers Squibb Company for sales in the United States. CPEC
will receive royalties based on net sales by Astra Merck. The Company paid Astra
Merck $10,000,000 in December 1997 (for which the Company made an accrual as of
September 30, 1997) and agreed to pay up to $11,000,000 for one-third of product
launch costs incurred beginning when the Company files a New Drug Application
("NDA") for the twice-daily formulation of bucindolol and continuing through the
first 12 months subsequent to the first commercial sale of the formulation. In
the event the Company elects not to make these payments, the royalties payable
by Astra Merck to CPEC will be substantially reduced.

         The Company will incur additional charges to operations relating to the
acquisition of CPEC in the event that certain milestones are achieved in the
development and commercialization of bucindolol. Two future issuances of
Interneuron's common stock of a maximum of 75,000 shares each, subject to
adjustment based on the price of Interneuron common stock at the time of
issuance, are required upon achieving the milestones of filing an NDA and
receiving an approval letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the
"FDA") to market bucindolol. In exchange for Interneuron providing such shares,
Intercardia will pay Interneuron the value of such shares, in either cash or
Intercardia Common Stock, at the Company's option. Each additional payment would
have minimum and maximum charges to the Company of $750,000 and $1,875,000,
respectively.

         Pursuant to the Knoll Collaboration, the Company is responsible for
approximately 40% of the development and marketing costs of bucindolol for all
countries with the exception of the United States and Japan (the "Knoll
Territory"), subject to certain maximum dollar limitations. The Company's
portion of development and clinical trials costs of the twice-daily formulation
of bucindolol for the Knoll Territory is estimated to be up to $10,000,000 and
the Company's portion of marketing costs prior to product launch is estimated to
be up to $4,000,000. Upon product launch, the Company will be responsible for
40% of the net loss in the Knoll Territory, if any, as defined. The Company is
also responsible for approximately 40% of the costs incurred to develop a
once-daily formulation of bucindolol for the Knoll Territory and approximately
67% of the once-daily development costs that have a worldwide benefit.

         The Company is aware of products in research or development by its
competitors that address the diseases being targeted by the Company. In
particular, Coreg(TM) (carvedilol), a non-selective beta-blocker with moderate
vasodilating properties, is owned by Boehringer Mannheim GmbH ("Boehringer") and
licensed in the United States and certain other countries to SmithKline Beecham
("SKB"). In May 1997, the FDA approved the use of carvedilol as a treatment for
congestive heart failure in the United States, and SKB and Boehringer are
currently marketing carvedilol in the United States and a number of other
countries. The Company is unable to predict the impact of this product on
BEXTRA, if BEXTRA is approved by the FDA.

         The Company expects to incur substantial additional costs and losses
over the next few years. The Company's working capital and capital requirements
will depend upon numerous 



                                       12
<PAGE>


factors, including: the progress of the development and clinical trials of
bucindolol; the timing and cost of obtaining regulatory approvals; the effect of
competitive drugs on the BEST Study and on commercialization of bucindolol; the
proposed acquisition and operating costs of Transcell; and the ability of the
Company to establish additional collaborative arrangements with other companies
to provide research or development funding to the Company and to conduct
clinical trials, obtain regulatory approvals, and manufacture and market certain
of the Company's products. The Company may acquire other products, technologies
or businesses that complement the Company's existing and planned products,
although the Company currently has no commitment or agreement with respect to
any such acquisitions, other than the proposed acquisition of Transcell. While
the Company believes it has sufficient cash available for currently planned
expenditures through the fiscal year ending September 30, 1999, including the
proposed acquisition of Transcell, the Company may seek additional funds through
equity and/or debt financing and additional corporate collaborations to provide
financing and funding for new business opportunities and future growth.
