NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included. Operating results and cash flows for the interim periods
ended June 27, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 26, 1998. For further information refer to
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the 1997 fiscal
year included in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 dated April 8,
1998.

Basic earnings per share has been computed using the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the
assumed exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method that could
potentially dilute earnings per share. The treasury stock method results in an
increase in the number of weighted average common stock equivalents by 850,000
and 369,000 shares in the three month and six month periods ended June 27, 1998,
respectively.


NOTE 2--INVENTORIES

NOTE 5--INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On April 9, 1998, the Company consummated an initial public offering of 3.45
million shares of common stock which generated net proceeds of $52.5 million.
The majority of the proceeds of the offering were used to retire $50 million of
the Company's senior floating rate notes. This resulted in an extraordinary
charge of $1.7 million, net of taxes, related to the early extinguishment of
debt in the second quarter of 1998. This extraordinary item is comprised of a
write-off of non-cash deferred financing fees as well as costs associated with
the reacquisition of the notes.


NOTE 6--BORROWINGS

The Company's senior floating rate notes are fully and unconditionally
guaranteed jointly and severally by each of the Company's domestic subsidiaries,
each of which is wholly-owned by the Company. These subsidiaries sell all of
their products to Schein Pharmaceutical, Inc., the parent company. Summarized
financial information for these wholly-owned subsidiary guarantors (using the
push-down method of accounting) is as follows:

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q constitute "forward looking statements"
within the meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
including those concerning management's expectations with respect to future
events or results. Such forward looking statements may be identified by such
forward looking terms as expect, believe, may, anticipate, will or similar terms
or variations thereof. These forward looking statements involve certain
significant risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially
from the forward looking statements. Some important factors which may cause
results to differ include: the difficulty of predicting FDA approvals, the
uncertainty of acceptance and demand for the Company's new products, the impact
of competitive products and pricing, the availability of raw materials,
uncertainties associated with litigation (including without limitation patent
challenges) and regulatory matters, and fluctuations in operating results. Other
important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from the
forward looking statements are discussed in the "Risk Factors" and "Management's
Discussion & Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections
of the Company's prospectus dated April 8, 1998, which is on file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company's Registration
Statement on Form S-1. The Company assumes no duty to update any such forward
looking statements, even if experience or future changes indicate that any such
events or results may not be realized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

     The following table sets forth comparisons of product revenues and
settlement revenues for each of the periods shown:

</TABLE>



Net revenues for the second quarter of 1998 increased $23.6 million, or 20.6%,
from $114.4 million in 1997 to $138.0 million in 1998. Net revenues for the six
months of 1998 increased $38.4 million, or 15.6%, from $246.3 million in 1997 to
$284.7 million in 1998.

Product revenues for the second quarter increased $23.6 million and for the six
month period increased $33.4 million. The increase in product revenues in the
second quarter is attributable to volume increases of $31.9 million partially
offset by price erosion of $8.3 million. In the six month period volume
increases were $45.6 million and were partially offset by price erosion of $12.2
million. New generic products launched in the past 12 months contributed
revenues of $26.0 million in the second quarter and $41.4 million in the six
month period. Methylphenidate and ketoprofen ER (both launched in the fourth
quarter of 1997) represent the majority of these new product revenues.

Settlement revenues in 1997 and 1998 reflected in the six month period were
funds received from a pharmaceutical company pursuant to an agreement reached
with the company in 1994. Under the agreement the Company received a final
payment of $30 million in the first quarter of 1998, half of which was paid to
the Company's consultant. In

                                       9

addition to the amounts paid to the consultant, the Company incurs substantial
other costs related to its patent review activities as part of its overall
product development activities.

Gross profit for the second quarter increased $9.6 million, or 26.2%, from $36.6
million in 1997 to $46.2 million in 1998. Gross profit for the six month period
increased $16.7 million, or 20.6%, from $81.3 million in 1997 to $98.0 million
in 1998. The gross margin improved 1.5% from 32.0% in the second quarter 1997 to
33.5% in 1998 and in the six month period gross margin increased 1.4% from 33.0%
in 1997 to 34.4% in 1998. The increase in gross profit was principally the
result of the volume increases, improvement in the mix of products sold and an
increase in settlement revenues, partially offset by price erosion.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the second quarter increased
$3.1 million, or 16.3%, from $19.1 million in 1997 to $22.2 million in 1998.
Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six month period increased
$4.7 million, or 12.2%, from $39.1 million in 1997 to $43.8 million in 1998. The
increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to
higher brand selling and marketing expenses to support pre-launch activities for
Ferrlecit(R) and certain generic marketing programs associated with new product
launches.

Research and development expenses in the second quarter decreased $0.4 million,
or 5.1%, from $7.4 million in 1997 to $7.0 million in 1998. Research and
development expenses in the six month period of $14.2 million are equal to 1997.
However, it is currently expected that research and development expenses for the
full year may exceed 1997 levels.

Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles was unchanged from the comparable
periods in 1997.

Operating income for the second quarter increased $6.9 million, or 92.8%, from
$7.4 million in 1997 to $14.3 million in 1998. Operating income for the six
month period increased $12.0 million, or 52.3%, from $22.9 million in 1997 to
$34.9 million in 1998.

Interest expense, net, in the second quarter decreased $1.8 million, or 26.2%,
from $6.9 million in 1997 to $5.1 million in 1998. Interest expense, net, in the
six month period decreased $2.7 million, or 19.6%, from $13.7 million in 1997 to
$11.0 million in 1998. In the second quarter the Company retired $50 million of
senior floating rate notes with proceeds from its April 1998 initial public
offering which resulted in interest expense savings of $0.9 million. Additional
factors contributing to lower interest expense in the second quarter and six
month period were lower overall debt levels, lower borrowing rates due to higher
cost subordinated debt being exchanged for lower cost senior floating rate notes
in December 1997 and lower interest rate spreads under the bank agreement.

Other expenses (income), net, in the second quarter changed by $0.5 million from
an income of $1.1 million in 1997 to income of $0.6 million in 1998. Other
income, net, in the six month period was $2.1 million in 1998. The change in
other expenses (income), net, in the six month period is due to a gain on the
divestiture of an international joint venture and higher gains on the sales of
marketable securities in the 1998 period.

Extraordinary item of $1.7 million in the second quarter and six month period of
1998 related to the write-off of deferred financing fees in connection with the
retirement of $50 million of the Company's senior floating rate notes with
proceeds the Company received from its April 1998 initial public offering.

The Company's effective tax rate is impacted by the effect of significant
non-deductible expenses, which are largely comprised of amortization of
intangibles. The effective tax rate decreased from 80.4% in the second quarter
of 1997 to 34.5% in 1998 and decreased for the six month period from 54.0% in
1997 to 40.0% in 1998, primarily as a result of higher income offsetting fixed
non-deductible expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On April 9, 1998, the Company  consummated  an initial  public  offering of 3.45
million  shares of common stock which  generated net proceeds of $52.5  million.
The majority of the proceeds of the offering  were used to retire $50 million of
the Company's senior floating rate notes.

Net cash used in operating activities was $2.0 million for the six months ended
June 1998. The net cash used in operating activities during 1998 was
attributable to net income as adjusted for the effects of non-cash items of
$25.0 million, and an increase in accounts receivable, inventories and prepaid
expenses and other assets of $33.9 million, partially offset by an increase in
liabilities, excluding debt, of $6.9 million. The increase in inventories is
primarily the result of a seasonal increase in raw materials as well as
increases in work in process inventories.

Net cash used in investing activities was $25.2 million for the six months ended
June 1998. Cash used in investing activities consisted of international
investments of $6.5 million, product rights and licenses of $8.8 million, and
capital expenditures of $13.6 million. Capital expenditures includes a $5.1
million purchase of land and a building located at the Company's Cherry Hill
facility which was previously leased. In February 1998, the Company entered into
a strategic alliance agreement with Cheminor Drugs Limited and its subsidiaries
("Cheminor") and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories Limited and its subsidiaries
("Reddy"). As part of the arrangement, the Company purchased 2 million shares of
Cheminor (12.79% of the currently outstanding shares of Cheminor) and other
rights for $10 million, of which $6.2 million represents the fair value of the
stock and $3.8 million represents product rights. These cash outlays were
partially offset by proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $4.6
million.

Net cash of $27.0 million provided by financing activities for the six months
ended June 1998 was derived primarily from net proceeds from the Company's
initial public offering of $52.5 million, reduced by net repayments of debt of
$27.4 million.

During the second quarter of 1998, a Qualified Public Offering Date occurred
under the terms of the Restructuring Agreements which are described in the
Company's prospectus dated April 8, 1998. As a consequence, Bayer Corporation's
consent is no longer required in connection with the Company's taking certain
actions relating to debt, dividends and distributions on Common Stock.

The Company currently believes that cash generated from operations and existing
credit facilities are sufficient to finance its current level of operations
through the next twelve months. In the event that the Company undertakes any
acquisitions or any other commitments which require a material expenditure or
outlay of cash or capital resources, it may be required to obtain additional
funds. There can be no assurance that such funds, if required, would be
available or, if available, would be on terms acceptable to the Company.

REGULATORY MATTERS

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently completed an inspection of
Steris Laboratories, Inc., the Company's subsidiary located in Phoenix, Arizona.
The inspectional observations included deficiencies concerning manufacturing
process validation and controls, some of which were noted in past inspections
and cited in the previously reported warning letter Steris received early this
year. In discussions with the FDA, Steris has been apprised that it has not yet
satisfactorily addressed the FDA's concerns in these and certain other areas.
Steris recently provided the FDA with its action plan to resolve validation and
other open issues. The FDA may request modifications to the plan. One or more
FDA inspections to evaluate Steris's performance of the plan are anticipated.
The Company expects that it will incur certain incremental costs at the facility
in the near term as it addresses the matters raised by the FDA and prepares for
such inspections. During the course of the recent inspection, Steris voluntarily
placed on distribution hold a number of smaller volume products pending
completion of validation studies on the processes used to manufacture these
products. These products represented approximately 2-3% of the Company's sales
and gross profits for the last twelve months.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

Companies are anticipating that they may experience operational difficulties as
a result of automated systems that utilize two digits rather than four digits to
represent the applicable year. The Company's Year 2000 ("Y2K") compliance plan
includes compliance verification of vendor supplied software used by the
Company, modification and testing of internally supported applications, and
remediation of non-compliant embedded technology utilized in computer, network,
telecommunications, office and manufacturing equipment. The Company's plan also
includes communication with its trading partners (customers and suppliers) to
determine their readiness for Y2K compliance. The Company currently plans to
complete its Y2K compliance for computer transaction-based applications in late
1998 or early 1999, and for equipment utilizing embedded technology in 1999. All
costs associated with Y2K compliance are being expensed as incurred and are not
expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. Nevertheless, there is uncertainty
concerning the potential costs and effects associated with Y2K compliance. Thus,
any Y2K compliance problems of the Company or its trading partners could
possibly have a material effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations.
