                    MYLAN LABORATORIES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                    Unaudited

1.   General

          In the  opinion of  management,  the  accompanying  unaudited  interim
     consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
     rules  and  regulations  of the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  for
     reporting on Form 10-Q; therefore,  as permitted under these rules, certain
     footnotes or other  financial  information  required by generally  accepted
     accounting  principles and included in audited  financial  statements  have
     been condensed or omitted.  The accompanying  financial  statements contain
     all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to
     present fairly our consolidated  results of operations,  financial position
     and cash flows for the periods presented.

          These  interim  consolidated  financial  statements  should be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in
     our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001.

          The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended June
     30, 2001, are not necessarily  indicative of the results to be expected for
     the full fiscal year.

2.   Reclassification

          Certain  prior year amounts have been  reclassified  to conform to the
     current year presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on reported
     net earnings, earnings per share or shareholders' equity.

3.   Revenue Recognition

          We recognize  revenue from product  sales upon  shipment to customers.
     Net  revenues  consist  primarily of gross  revenues  less  provisions  for
     estimated  discounts,  rebates,  price adjustments,  returns,  chargebacks,
     promotional  and  other  potential  adjustments.  Accounts  receivable  are
     presented  net of  allowances  relating  to these  provisions,  which  were
     $153,527,000 and $118,377,000 at June 30, 2001, and March 31, 2001.

4.   Recent Accounting Pronouncements

          In April 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards
     (SFAS) No. 133, as  amended,  Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and
     Hedging  Activities,  issued by the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
     (FASB) in June

                                       5

     1998.  SFAS  No.  133  requires  an  entity  to  recognize  all  derivative
     instruments  as either assets or  liabilities  on the balance sheet at fair
     value  and  those  changes  in fair  value to be  recognized  currently  in
     earnings,  unless specific hedge accounting  criteria are met. The adoption
     of SFAS No. 133 had no  material  impact on our  results of  operations  or
     financial position.

          In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and
     SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible  Assets.  SFAS No. 141 requires
     that all business combinations  initiated after June 30, 2001, be accounted
     for using the purchase method of accounting.

          SFAS No. 142 changes the  accounting  for goodwill  and certain  other
     intangible  assets  from  an  amortization  method  to an  impairment  only
     approach.  We will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 effective  April 1,
     2002. We are currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption
     of SFAS No. 142 will have on our consolidated  financial position,  results
     of operations and cash flows when adopted.  For the quarters ended June 30,
     2001,  and 2000,  amortization  expense  for  goodwill  and  certain  other
     intangible  assets,  as  defined  in  SFAS  No.  142,  was  $1,645,000  and
     $1,766,000.

               Segment net revenues  represent  revenues  from  unrelated  third
               parties.  Segment  profit  represents  segment  gross profit less
               direct research and development,  sales and marketing and general

               goodwill amortization,  other corporate  administrative  expenses
               and other  income and  expense.  For the  quarter  ended June 30,
               2000,  Corporate  includes  the expense of  $147,000,000  for the
               tentative settlement (see Note 10).

               Effective  April 1, 2001,  the  decision  was made that the Brand
               Segment assume  responsibility  for the sales and marketing of EX
               phenytoin 100mg, which were previously  included and evaluated in
               the operating  results of the Generic Segment.  Accordingly,  the
               operating results of the Brand Segment for the three months ended
               June 30,  2000,  have been revised to include the net revenues of
               $4,218,000 and the corresponding cost of sales of $894,000 for EX
               phenytoin 100mg previously included in the Generic Segment.

          In December  1998,  the FTC filed suit in U.S.  District Court for the
     District of Columbia against the Company.  The FTC's complaint  alleges the
     Company   engaged  in   restraint  of  trade,   monopolization,   attempted
     monopolization   and  conspiracy  to  monopolize  arising  out  of  certain
     agreements  involving the supply of raw materials used to  manufacture  two
     drugs.

          The FTC also sued in the same  case the  foreign  supplier  of the raw
     materials, the supplier's parent company and its United States distributor.
     Under the terms of the  agreements  related  to these  raw  materials,  the
     Company had agreed to indemnify  these  parties.  The Company is a party to
     other suits filed in the same court  involving the  Attorneys  General from
     all states and the  District  of Columbia  and more than 25 putative  class
     actions  that allege the same conduct  alleged in the FTC suit,  as well as
     alleged violations of state antitrust and consumer protection laws.

          The  relief  sought by the FTC  includes  an  injunction  barring  the
     Company  from  engaging  in the  challenged  conduct,  recision  of certain
     agreements  and  disgorgement  in excess of  $120,000,000.  The  states and
     private  parties seek similar relief,  treble damages and attorneys'  fees.
     The  Company's  motions to  dismiss  several of the  private  actions  were
     granted.

          In July 2000, the Company reached a tentative  agreement to settle the
     actions brought by the FTC and the States Attorneys  General  regarding raw
     material contracts for lorazepam and clorazepate. The Company has agreed to
     pay  $100,000,000  plus up to $8,000,000 in attorneys' fees incurred by the
     States Attorneys General.  Based on the FTC commissioners'  approval of the
     tentative settlement with the FTC and States Attorneys General, in December
     2000, the Company placed into escrow  $100,000,000.  Settlement papers have
     been  executed  and  filed by the  parties.  The  court  has  preliminarily
     approved the tentative  settlement.  Under the court's current schedule,  a
     hearing with respect to final approval is scheduled for November 29, 2001.


          In July 2000, the Company also reached a tentative agreement to settle
     private class action  lawsuits filed on behalf of consumers and third-party
     reimbursers related to the same facts and circumstances at issue in the FTC
     and  States  Attorneys  General  cases.  The  Company  has  agreed  to  pay
     $35,000,000  to  settle  the third  party  reimburser  actions,  plus up to
     $4,000,000 in attorneys' fees incurred by counsel in the consumer  actions.
     The  tentative  settlement  has been  preliminarily  approved by the court,
     pursuant to which the Company placed into escrow $35,000,000 in March 2001.
     Under the  court's  current  schedule,  a  hearing  with  respect  to final
     approval is scheduled for November 29, 2001.


                                        9

          In total,  the Company has agreed to pay up to  $147,000,000 to settle
     these actions brought by the FTC,  States  Attorneys  General,  and certain
     private  parties  (Tentative  Settlement).  The Tentative  Settlement  also
     includes three companies  indemnified by the Company - Cambrex Corporation,
     Profarmaco S.r.l. and Gyma Laboratories, Inc. Lawsuits not included in this
     Tentative Settlement  principally involve alleged direct purchasers such as
     wholesalers  and  distributors.  In July 2001,  the United States  District
     Court for the District of Columbia  certified a litigation class consisting
     of these direct  purchasers.  The Company has  petitioned the United States
     Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia  Circuit to hear an appeal of
     this certification.

          The Company believes that it has meritorious  defenses with respect to
     the claims  asserted  in those  anti-trust  suits which are not part of the
     Tentative  Settlement and will vigorously defend its position.  However, an
     adverse result in the remaining cases,  or, if the Tentative  Settlement is
     not given final approval by the court, the outcome of continued  litigation
     of these  cases,  could have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
     financial position and results of operations.

          The Company  filed an ANDA  seeking  approval to market  buspirone,  a
     generic equivalent to Bristol-Myers  Squibb's (BMS) BuSpar(R).  The Company
     had filed the  appropriate  certifications  relating  to the  patents  then
     listed in the Orange Book for this  product.  On November  21,  2000, a new
     patent claiming the  administration of a metabolite of buspirone (which BMS
     claims also covers the  administration  of buspirone  itself) was issued to
     BMS. The subsequent listing of this patent in the Orange Book prevented the
     FDA from  granting  final  approval for the  Company's  buspirone  ANDA. On
     November  30, 2000,  the Company  filed suit against the FDA and BMS in the
     United States  District  Court for the District of Columbia.  The complaint
     asked the court to order the FDA to immediately grant final approval of the
     Company's  ANDA for the 15mg  buspirone  product and require BMS to request
     withdrawal of the patent from the Orange Book. Upon the Company's posting a
     bond in the amount of $25,000,000,  the court entered an order granting the
     Company's  motion for a preliminary  injunction.  Following a brief stay by
     the court of appeals,  the FDA granted approval for the Company's ANDA with
     respect to the 15mg  strength.  Upon  receiving FDA  approval,  the Company
     commenced marketing and selling the product in March 2001. BMS appealed the
     preliminary injunction order to both the United States Court of Appeals for
     the Federal Circuit and the United States Court of Appeals for the District
     of  Columbia  Circuit.   The  District  of  Columbia  Circuit  denied  BMS'
     application and stayed the Company's motion to dismiss pending the decision
     of the Federal  Circuit.  The Federal  Circuit heard oral arguments on July
     12, 2001.
                                       10



          The Company is involved in three other suits related to buspirone.  In
     November  2000,  the Company  filed suit  against BMS in the United  States
     District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia. The suit seeks a
     declaratory  judgement of  non-infringement  and/or  invalidity  of the BMS
     patent listed in November  2000. In January 2001,  BMS sued the Company for
     patent infringement in the United States District Court for the District of
     Vermont and also in the United  States Court for the  Southern  District of
     New York. In each of these cases,  BMS asserts the Company  infringes  BMS'
     recently  issued  patent and seeks to rescind FDA approval of the Company's
     15mg ANDA and to block approval of the 5mg, 10mg and 30mg strengths.  It is
     expected that BMS will seek to recover  damages equal to the profits it has
     lost as a result  of the  Company's  sales  of this  product.  The  Company
     subsequently  filed  motions to dismiss the Vermont case and to dismiss and
     transfer  the New York case to the  United  States  District  Court for the
     Northern  District  of West  Virginia.  While  these suits are in the early
     stages, the Company believes it has meritorious  defenses to the claims and
     intends to vigorously defend its position.

          A decision  unfavorable to the Company in the case on appeal or any of
     the three cases  involving  the validity of BMS' patents  could prevent the
     Company  from  continuing  its  sales of  buspirone  and  could  result  in
     forfeiture  of its bond (in the case on  appeal) or other  damages,  any of
     which  could have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  results of
     operations and/or financial position.

          In February 2001,  Biovail  Corporation and Biovail  Laboratories Inc.
     (Biovail) filed suit against the Company and Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer) in United
     States Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia alleging
     anti-trust  violations with respect to agreements  entered into between the
     Company and Pfizer  regarding  nifedipine.  The  Company  filed a motion to
     transfer the case to United States Federal  District Court for the Northern
     District of West  Virginia,  which was  granted.  While this suit is in its
     early  stages,  the  Company  believes it has  meritorious  defenses to the
     claims  asserted by Biovail and intends to vigorously  defend its position.
     An adverse  outcome could have a material  adverse  effect on the Company's
     results of operations and/or financial position.

          The  Company  has been named as a defendant  in three  separate  suits
     alleging  anti-trust  claims  based  on a  settlement  entered  into by the
     Company  with  Bayer  AG,  Bayer  Corporation  and  Pfizer  Inc.  regarding
     nifedipine:  Great Lakes Health Plan Inc.  filed suit in the United  States
     District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan,  Southern  Division in
     May 2001;  United Food and Commercial  Workers Unions and Employers Midwest
     Health Benefits Fund, and other named plaintiffs, filed suit in the Circuit
     Court of Cook County,  Illinois in July 2001;  and  Teamsters  Local No. 35
     Health Plans, and other named  plaintiffs,  filed suit in the United States
     District Court for the Northern District of

                                       11


     West  Virginia  in August  2001.  The Company  believes it has  meritorious
     defenses to these claims and intends to vigorously defend its position.  An
     adverse outcome in any of these suits could have a material  adverse effect
     on the Company's results of operations and/or financial position.

          The  Company  filed  suit  against  Aventis   Pharmaceuticals,   Inc.,
     successor  in  interest  to  Rhone-Poulenc  Rorer  Pharmaceuticals,   Inc.;
     Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Pharmaceuticals,  LTD.; Rorer Pharmaceutical  Products,
     Inc.;  Rhone-Poulenc  Rorer,  S.A.,  and their  affiliates in United States
     Federal  District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on May 23,
     2001.  The  Complaint  sets forth claims of breach of  contract,  recision,
     breach of  implied  covenant  of good  faith and fair  dealing  and  unjust
     enrichment.  The facts  substantiating  the claims  arise  from  agreements
     entered into by the parties relating to the  manufacture,  distribution and
     sale of Zagam(R).  The  defendants'  answer  included a counterclaim  which
     alleges nonpayment of royalties and failure to mitigate.

          Biovail Laboratories Inc. (Biovail) has filed a demand for arbitration
     against the Company with the American Arbitration Association.  The dispute
     relates  to  a  supply   agreement   under  which  the   Company   supplied
     extended-release verapamil to Biovail. The Company terminated the agreement
     in March 2001. Biovail's allegations include breach of contract,  breach of
     implied  covenant of good faith and fair dealing,  and unfair  competition.
     While this  matter is in its early  stages,  the  Company  believes  it has
     meritorious  defenses  to the claims  asserted  by Biovail  and  intends to
     vigorously  defend its position.  An adverse  outcome could have a material
     adverse  effect on the  Company's  results of operations  and/or  financial
     position.

          NAPRO  Biotherapeutics  Inc.  (NAPRO)  and  Abbott  Laboratories  Inc.
     (Abbott) filed suit against the Company in United States  Federal  District
     Court for the  Western  District  of  Pennsylvania.  Plaintiffs  allege the
     Company's manufacture, use and sale of paclitaxel infringes certain patents
     owned by NAPRO and allegedly  licensed to Abbott. The Company began selling
     paclitaxel on July 25, 2001.  Abbott has filed an ANDA seeking  approval to
     sell paclitaxel.  The regulatory review status of the Abbott application is
     unknown to the Company. While this suit is in its early stages, the Company
     believes it has meritorious  defenses to the claims asserted and intends to
     vigorously defend its position.  An adverse outcome in this suit could have
     a material  adverse  effect on the Company's  results of operations  and/or
     financial position.

          We are involved in various other legal proceedings that are considered
     normal to our  business.  While it is not  feasible to predict the ultimate
     outcome of such other proceedings, it is the opinion of management that the
     ultimate outcome of such other proceedings will not have a material adverse
     effect on our results of operations or financial position.

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


          The following  discussion  and analysis  should be read in conjunction
     with  the  consolidated   financial   statements,   the  related  notes  to
     consolidated financial statements and management's  discussion and analysis
     of financial  condition  and results of  operations  included in our Annual
     Report on Form 10-K for the  fiscal  year  ended  March 31,  2001,  and the
     unaudited interim  consolidated  financial statements included in Item 1 of
     this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

          For the quarter ended June 30, 2001,  net earnings were $50.6 million,
     or $.40 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $76.1 million, or $.59
     per diluted  share,  for the quarter  ended June 30,  2000.  Excluding  the
     $147.0 million before tax effect of the tentative FTC settlement  (see Note
     10 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), net earnings for the
     current quarter  increased $32.6 million,  or $.26 per diluted share,  from
     $18.0 million, or $.14 per diluted share, for the prior year quarter.

          Effective  April 1, 2001, the decision was made that the Brand Segment
          assume  responsibility  for the sales and  marketing  of EX  phenytoin
          100mg,  which were previously  included and evaluated in the operating
          results of the Generic Segment.  Accordingly, the operating results of
          the Brand Segment for the three months ended June 30, 2000,  have been
          revised  to  include  the  net   revenues  of  $4.2  million  and  the
          corresponding  cost of sales of $.9  million  for EX  phenytoin  100mg
          previously included in the Generic Segment.

Results of Operations

First Quarter Fiscal 2002 vs. First Quarter Fiscal 2001

     Net Revenues and Gross Profit

          Net revenues for the current quarter were $237.9 million, representing
     a $70.6 million or 42.2%  increase from the $167.3  million in net revenues
     for the prior year quarter.

          Generic net  revenues  for the  current  quarter  were $209.8  million
     compared to $132.5  million for the prior year quarter,  a $77.3 million or
     58.3% increase. New products launched subsequent to June 30, 2000, resulted
     in  increased  net  revenues  for the  current  quarter  of $37.6  million,
     primarily  buspirone HCl 15mg which contributed $33.7 million. We currently
     have market  exclusivity  for  buspirone HCl 15mg through  September  2001.
     After such date, we expect to experience  pricing and volume  pressures due
     to competition.  Additionally,  we are currently  litigating certain issues
     relating to our buspirone  ANDAs (see Note 10 in the Notes to  Consolidated
     Financial Statements).

          The   remaining   increase  in  generic  net   revenues  is  primarily
     attributable  to the decision by the Generic  Segment during the prior year
     quarter to eliminate its  participation in end of quarter  investment buys,
     resulting in  significant  reductions  in net revenues and gross profit for
     the prior year quarter.  Generic  volume,  excluding  unit dose,  increased
     0.883  billion doses or 53.6% from 1.647 billion for the prior year quarter
     to 2.530 billion for the current quarter.

          We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, pricing and
     volume pressures on nifedipine. Due to contractual arrangements,  our gross
     profit  as a  percent  of net  revenues  will  remain  constant,  while net
     revenues and gross profit dollars will continue to decrease.

          Brand net revenues for the current quarter were $28.1 million compared
     to $34.8  million  for the prior  year  quarter,  a $6.7  million  or 19.3%
     decrease. Brand net revenues and brand gross profit for the current quarter
     decreased  primarily due to prior quarter  buy-ins to  pre-announced  price
     increases,   the  curtailment  of  end  of  quarter  promotional  programs,
     increases in estimates for reserves and  allowances  and the removal of two
     injection  products from the product line and the corresponding  write-down
     of the related intangible assets.

          Based  on a  number  of  sales  and  marketing  opportunities  with EX
     phenytoin 100mg,  which may be further enhanced with the expected  approval
     in  fiscal  2002 of the  200mg and 300mg  strengths,  a  decision  was made
     effective April 1, 2001, that the Brand Segment assume  responsibility  for
     the sales and marketing of EX phenytoin  100mg.  Such sales were previously
     included and evaluated in the

                                       15

     operating  results  of the  Generic  Segment.  Accordingly,  the  operating
     results for the Brand  Segment for the three  months  ended June 30,  2000,
     have been  revised to include  the net  revenues  of $4.2  million  and the
     corresponding  cost  of  sales  of  $.9  million  for  EX  phenytoin  100mg
     previously included in the Generic Segment. EX phenytoin 100mg net revenues
     for the current quarter were $8.8 million.

          Gross profit for the current quarter was $121.9  million,  or 51.2% of
     net revenues,  compared to $73.8 million, or 44.1% of net revenues, for the
     prior year quarter, a $48.1 million or 65.2% increase. Generic gross profit
     for the  current  quarter  was $109.2  million,  or 52.0% of net  revenues,
     compared to $51.5  million,  or 38.9% of net  revenues,  for the prior year
     quarter, a $57.7 million or 112.0% increase. This increase in generic gross
     profit is primarily  attributable  to the launch of buspirone and the prior
     year decision to no longer  participate in end of quarter  investment buys.
     Brand gross profit for the current  quarter was $12.7 million,  or 45.2% of
     net  revenues,  compared to $22.3  million or 64.1% of net revenues for the
     prior year  quarter,  a $9.6 million or 43.0%  decrease.  This  decrease in
     brand  gross  profit is related to those  items  identified  above as being
     attributable to the decrease in brand net revenues.

Research and Development

          Research and  development  expenses for the current quarter were $16.8
     million or 7.1% of net  revenues  compared to $16.5  million or 9.9% of net
     revenues  for the prior  year  quarter.  The  decrease  of $4.5  million in
     generic  research and development  expenses is primarily  attributable to a
     licensing  agreement milestone payment recognized in the prior year quarter
     and the timing of studies being conducted.  The increase of $4.8 million in
     brand  research  and  development  is  primarily  attributable  to  studies
     associated  with  nebivolol  and  butenafine.  We  expect  quarterly  brand
     research  and  development  expenses to continue to  fluctuate  as we begin
     nebivolol's clinical phase of development.

          We are  actively  pursuing  and  are  involved  in  joint  development
     projects in an effort to broaden our scope of  capabilities  to market both
     generic and brand products. Many of these arrangements provide for payments
     by us upon the attainment of specified milestones. While these arrangements
     help to reduce our financial risk for unsuccessful projects, fulfillment of
     milestones  or  the   occurrence  of  other   obligations   may  result  in
     fluctuations in research and development expenses.


Selling and Marketing Expenses

          Selling and  marketing  expenses  were  relatively  unchanged  for the
     current quarter at $15.1 million or 6.3% of net revenues  compared to $15.5
     million or 9.3% of net revenues for the prior year quarter.

                                       16


General and Administrative Expenses

          General and administrative expenses for the current quarter were $25.6
     million or 10.8% of net revenues  compared to $22.4 million or 13.4% of net
     revenues  for the prior year  quarter,  a $3.2  million  increase.  Generic
     general and administrative  expenses increased $2.1 million to $7.4 million
     for the current quarter from $5.3 million for the prior year quarter. Brand
     general and administrative  expenses increased $1.1 million to $4.1 million
     for the  current  quarter  from $3.0  million  for the prior year  quarter.
     Corporate expenses, excluding the tentative FTC settlement, were relatively
     unchanged quarter to quarter.  The increases in general and  administrative
     expenses are primarily  attributable  to payroll  related  expenses and the
     relocation of the Brand Segment to Research Triangle Park, NC.

Tentative Litigation Settlement

          In June 2000, we reached a tentative  settlement  with the FTC, States
     Attorneys General and certain private parties with regard to lawsuits filed
     against the Company  relating to pricing issues and raw material  contracts
     on two of its products (see Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated  Financial
     Statements).

Other Income

          Other income for the current  quarter  increased $4.7 million to $15.4
     million  from  $10.7  million  for the prior  year  quarter.  Income on our
     limited partnership investments increased $7.2 million to $12.0 million for
     the current quarter from $4.8 million for the prior year quarter. In fiscal
     2001,  we began the  process of  partially  liquidating  a certain  limited
     partnership in an effort to reduce our exposure to market fluctuations.  We
     expect this process to be completed by December 2001. Future performance of
     this investment is uncertain.  The remaining amount of other income for the
     current quarter primarily represents interest income.


Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Condition
- ----------------------------------------------------

          Our cash and cash  equivalents and working capital were $183.8 million
     and $639.4 million at June 30, 2001,  compared to $229.2 million and $588.0
     million at March 31, 2001. The primary source of operating  capital used to
     grow our business continues to be generated through our product sales. Cash
     flows from  operating  activities  for the quarter ended June 30, 2001, was
     $57.0 million compared to $44.7 million for the prior year quarter.

                                       17

          Our investments in marketable  securities  increased $103.3 million to
     $159.0 million at June 30, 2001, from $55.7 million at March 31, 2001. This
     increase  is  primarily  attributable  to a  shift  from  investments  with
     maturity terms of less than 90 days,  which are classified as cash and cash
     equivalents,  to investments with maturities  greater than 90 days but less
     than one year.  Investments  with maturities  greater than 90 days but less
     than one year  increased to $123.7  million at June 30,  2001,  compared to
     $25.9 million at March 31, 2001.

          Capital expenditures continue to be purchased with the funds generated
     from our operating  activities.  Capital expenditures for the quarter ended
     June 30,  2001,  were $3.2  million  compared to $8.8 million for the prior
     year quarter.  The prior year quarter included  payments for constructing a
     sales and  administration  building in Morgantown,  West  Virginia,  and an
     addition to one of our generic manufacturing facilities in Puerto Rico.

          We continue to pay quarterly  cash dividends of $.04 per common share.
     Dividend  payments  totaled $5.0 million  during the quarter ended June 30,
     2001.

          We  believe   that   operating   activities   from  the  sale  of  our
     pharmaceutical  products will be our principal source of cash.  However, we
     believe that the acquisition of new products,  as well as other  companies,
     will  play a  strategic  role in our  growth.  Consequently,  we may  incur
     additional  indebtedness to finance these  acquisitions  which would impact
     future liquidity.

          We have deposited $135.0 million relating to the tentative  litigation
     settlement (see Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements).
     We have an additional  $12.0  million  obligation to fund. If the tentative
     settlement  is not given final  court  approval,  the outcome of  continued
     litigation  of these  cases  could  have a material  adverse  effect on our
     financial position and results of operations.

          Our  payments  for state and federal  income  taxes  increased  in the
     quarter  ended June 30,  2001,  to $32.6  million from $5.8 million for the
     quarter  ended June 30,  2000.  Payments in the June 30, 2000  quarter were
     lower as a result of lower taxable  income  resulting  from the  litigation
     settlement charge of $147.0 million.



Recent Accounting Pronouncements

          In April 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial  Accounting Standards
     (SFAS) No. 133, as  amended,  Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and
     Hedging  Activities,  issued by the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board
     (FASB) in June  1998.  SFAS No. 133  requires  an entity to  recognize  all
     derivative instruments as

                                       18

     either assets or  liabilities  on the balance sheet at fair value and those
     changes  in fair  value to be  recognized  currently  in  earnings,  unless
     specific  hedge  accounting  criteria are met. The adoption of SFAS No. 133
     had no material impact on our results of operations or financial position.

          In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and
     SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible  Assets.  SFAS No. 141 requires
     that all business combinations  initiated after June 30, 2001, be accounted
     for using the purchase method of accounting.

          SFAS No. 142 changes the  accounting  for goodwill  and certain  other
     intangible  assets  from  an  amortization  method  to an  impairment  only
     approach.  We will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 142 effective  April 1,
     2002. We are currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption
     of SFAS No. 142 will have on our consolidated  financial position,  results
     of operations and cash flows when adopted.  For the quarters ended June 30,
     2001,  and 2000,  amortization  expense  for  goodwill  and  certain  other
     intangible  assets,  as  defined  in  SFAS  No.  142,  was  $1,645,000  and
     $1,766,000.


Forward-Looking Statements

          The statements set forth in this Report concerning the manner in which
     we intend to  conduct  our future  operations,  potential  trends  that may
     impact future results of operations,  and our beliefs or expectations about
     future  operations  are  forward-looking  statements.  We may be  unable to
     realize  our  plans  and  objectives  due  to  various  important  factors,
     including,  but not limited to, an acceleration in the erosion of prices of
     our generic  pharmaceutical  products,  the  inability to obtain timely FDA
     approval for new generic or brand products,  the failure to find acceptance
     of our brand products in the  marketplace,  the continued  litigiousness by
     brand  manufacturers  designed  to delay the  introduction  of our  generic
     products,   the  failure  to  receive  court   approval  of  the  Tentative
     Settlement,  the failure to  favorably  litigate  or resolve the  remaining
     cases  that are not a part of the  Tentative  Settlement,  the  failure  to
     favorably  litigate  or  resolve  the  buspirone  cases or the other  cases
     described in Note 10 in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and
     the factors  described under "Forward Looking  Statements" in Item 7 of our
     Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001.

                                       19

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
          The  information  required by Item 3 has been  disclosed in Item 7A of
     the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2001.
     There has been no material change in the disclosure  regarding market risk,
     except as described below.

          The fair market  value of the debt  securities  held by the Company at
     June 30, 2001,  was $143.8  million,  of which $123.7 million mature in one
     year or less (the market  values of which are generally  less  sensitive to
     interest  rate   fluctuations  than  is  the  case  with  longer-term  debt
     instruments).  The fair  market  value  of  equity  securities  held by the
     Company at June 30, 2001, was $15.2 million. Such investments  collectively
     represent 10% of the Company's total assets as of June 30, 2001, and 46% of
     the  aggregate  value  of debt  and  equity  securities  and  cash and cash
     equivalents held by the Company at such date. Assuming an instantaneous 10%
     decrease in the market value of the Company's  debt and equity  securities,
     the change in the aggregate fair market value of these  securities would be
     $15.9 million.



                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
                           --------------------------
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
- --------------------------

          In December  1998,  the FTC filed suit in U.S.  District Court for the
     District of Columbia against the Company.  The FTC's complaint  alleges the
     Company   engaged  in   restraint  of  trade,   monopolization,   attempted
     monopolization   and  conspiracy  to  monopolize  arising  out  of  certain
     agreements  involving the supply of raw materials used to  manufacture  two
     drugs.

          The FTC also sued in the same  case the  foreign  supplier  of the raw
     materials, the supplier's parent company and its United States distributor.
     Under the terms of the  agreements  related  to these  raw  materials,  the
     Company had agreed to indemnify  these  parties.  The Company is a party to
     other suits filed in the same court  involving the  Attorneys  General from
     all states and the  District  of Columbia  and more than 25 putative  class
     actions  that allege the same conduct  alleged in the FTC suit,  as well as
     alleged violations of state antitrust and consumer protection laws.

          The  relief  sought by the FTC  includes  an  injunction  barring  the
     Company  from  engaging  in the  challenged  conduct,  recision  of certain
     agreements  and  disgorgement  in excess of  $120,000,000.  The  states and
     private  parties seek similar relief,  treble damages and attorneys'  fees.
     The  Company's  motions to  dismiss  several of the  private  actions  were
     granted.

                                       20

          In July 2000, the Company reached a tentative  agreement to settle the
     actions brought by the FTC and the States Attorneys  General  regarding raw
     material contracts for lorazepam and clorazepate. The Company has agreed to
     pay  $100,000,000  plus up to $8,000,000 in attorneys' fees incurred by the
     States Attorneys General.  Based on the FTC commissioners'  approval of the
     tentative settlement with the FTC and States Attorneys General, in December
     2000, the Company placed into escrow  $100,000,000.  Settlement papers have
     been  executed  and  filed by the  parties.  The  court  has  preliminarily
     approved the tentative  settlement.  Under the court's current schedule,  a
     hearing with respect to final approval is scheduled for November 29, 2001.

          In July 2000, the Company also reached a tentative agreement to settle
     private class action  lawsuits filed on behalf of consumers and third-party
     reimbursers related to the same facts and circumstances at issue in the FTC
     and  States  Attorneys  General  cases.  The  Company  has  agreed  to  pay
     $35,000,000  to  settle  the third  party  reimburser  actions,  plus up to
     $4,000,000 in attorneys' fees incurred by counsel in the consumer  actions.
     The  tentative  settlement  has been  preliminarily  approved by the court,
     pursuant to which the Company placed into escrow $35,000,000 in March 2001.
     Under the  court's  current  schedule,  a  hearing  with  respect  to final
     approval is scheduled for November 29, 2001.

          In total,  the Company has agreed to pay up to  $147,000,000 to settle
     these actions brought by the FTC,  States  Attorneys  General,  and certain
     private  parties  (Tentative  Settlement).  The Tentative  Settlement  also
     includes three companies  indemnified by the Company - Cambrex Corporation,
     Profarmaco S.r.l. and Gyma Laboratories, Inc. Lawsuits not included in this
     Tentative Settlement  principally involve alleged direct purchasers such as
     wholesalers  and  distributors.  In July 2001,  the United States  District
     Court for the District of Columbia  certified a litigation class consisting
     of these direct  purchasers.  The Company has  petitioned the United States
     Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia  Circuit to hear an appeal of
     this certification.

          The Company believes that it has meritorious  defenses with respect to
     the claims  asserted  in those  anti-trust  suits which are not part of the
     Tentative  Settlement and will vigorously defend its position.  However, an
     adverse result in the remaining cases,  or, if the Tentative  Settlement is
     not given final approval by the court, the outcome of continued  litigation
     of these  cases,  could have a  material  adverse  effect on the  Company's
     financial position and results of operations.

          The Company  filed an ANDA  seeking  approval to market  buspirone,  a
     generic equivalent to Bristol-Myers  Squibb's (BMS) BuSpar(R).  The Company
     had filed the  appropriate  certifications  relating  to the  patents  then
     listed in the Orange Book for this  product.  On November  21,  2000, a new
     patent claiming the  administration

                                       21

     of  a  metabolite   of   buspirone   (which  BMS  claims  also  covers  the
     administration  of  buspirone  itself)  was issued to BMS.  The  subsequent
     listing of this patent in the Orange Book  prevented  the FDA from granting
     final approval for the Company's  buspirone ANDA. On November 30, 2000, the
     Company  filed suit against the FDA and BMS in the United  States  District
     Court for the District of Columbia.  The complaint asked the court to order
     the FDA to  immediately  grant final approval of the Company's ANDA for the
     15mg buspirone product and require BMS to request  withdrawal of the patent
     from the Orange Book.  Upon the  Company's  posting a bond in the amount of
     $25,000,000, the court entered an order granting the Company's motion for a
     preliminary injunction. Following a brief stay by the court of appeals, the
     FDA  granted  approval  for the  Company's  ANDA with  respect  to the 15mg
     strength.  Upon receiving FDA approval, the Company commenced marketing and
     selling the product in March 2001. BMS appealed the preliminary  injunction
     order to both the United  States  Court of Appeals for the Federal  Circuit
     and the  United  States  Court of  Appeals  for the  District  of  Columbia
     Circuit.  The  District of Columbia  Circuit  denied BMS'  application  and
     stayed the Company's  motion to dismiss pending the decision of the Federal
     Circuit. The Federal Circuit heard oral arguments on July 12, 2001.

          The Company is involved in three other suits related to buspirone.  In
     November  2000,  the Company  filed suit  against BMS in the United  States
     District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia. The suit seeks a
     declaratory  judgement of  non-infringement  and/or  invalidity  of the BMS
     patent listed in November  2000. In January 2001,  BMS sued the Company for
     patent infringement in the United States District Court for the District of
     Vermont and also in the United  States Court for the  Southern  District of
     New York. In each of these cases,  BMS asserts the Company  infringes  BMS'
     recently  issued  patent and seeks to rescind FDA approval of the Company's
     15mg ANDA and to block approval of the 5mg, 10mg and 30mg strengths.  It is
     expected that BMS will seek to recover  damages equal to the profits it has
     lost as a result  of the  Company's  sales  of this  product.  The  Company
     subsequently  filed  motions to dismiss the Vermont case and to dismiss and
     transfer  the New York case to the  United  States  District  Court for the
     Northern  District  of West  Virginia.  While  these suits are in the early
     stages, the Company believes it has meritorious  defenses to the claims and
     intends to vigorously defend its position.

          A decision  unfavorable to the Company in the case on appeal or any of
     the three cases  involving  the validity of BMS' patents  could prevent the
     Company  from  continuing  its  sales of  buspirone  and  could  result  in
     forfeiture  of its bond (in the case on  appeal) or other  damages,  any of
     which  could have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  results of
     operations and/or financial position.

          In February 2001,  Biovail  Corporation and Biovail  Laboratories Inc.
     (Biovail) filed suit against the Company and Pfizer Inc. (Pfizer) in United
     States Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia alleging
     anti-

                                       22

     trust  violations  with  respect to  agreements  entered  into  between the
     Company and Pfizer  regarding  nifedipine.  The  Company  filed a motion to
     transfer the case to United States Federal  District Court for the Northern
     District of West  Virginia,  which was  granted.  While this suit is in its
     early  stages,  the  Company  believes it has  meritorious  defenses to the
     claims  asserted by Biovail and intends to vigorously  defend its position.
     An adverse  outcome could have a material  adverse  effect on the Company's
     results of operations and/or financial position.

          The  Company  has been named as a defendant  in three  separate  suits
     alleging  anti-trust  claims  based  on a  settlement  entered  into by the
     Company  with  Bayer  AG,  Bayer  Corporation  and  Pfizer  Inc.  regarding
     nifedipine:  Great Lakes Health Plan Inc.  filed suit in the United  States
     District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan,  Southern  Division in
     May 2001;  United Food and Commercial  Workers Unions and Employers Midwest
     Health Benefits Fund, and other named plaintiffs, filed suit in the Circuit
     Court of Cook County,  Illinois in July 2001;  and  Teamsters  Local No. 35
     Health Plans, and other named  plaintiffs,  filed suit in the United States
     District  Court for the Northern  District of West Virginia in August 2001.
     The  Company  believes  it has  meritorious  defenses  to these  claims and
     intends to  vigorously  defend its position.  An adverse  outcome in any of
     these suits could have a material  adverse effect on the Company's  results
     of operations and/or financial position.

          The  Company  filed  suit  against  Aventis   Pharmaceuticals,   Inc.,
     successor  in  interest  to  Rhone-Poulenc  Rorer  Pharmaceuticals,   Inc.;
     Rhone-Poulenc Rorer Pharmaceuticals,  LTD.; Rorer Pharmaceutical  Products,
     Inc.;  Rhone-Poulenc  Rorer,  S.A.,  and their  affiliates in United States
     Federal  District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania on May 23,
     2001.  The  Complaint  sets forth claims of breach of  contract,  recision,
     breach of  implied  covenant  of good  faith and fair  dealing  and  unjust
     enrichment.  The facts  substantiating  the claims  arise  from  agreements
     entered into by the parties relating to the  manufacture,  distribution and
     sale of Zagam(R).  The  defendants'  answer  included a counterclaim  which
     alleges nonpayment of royalties and failure to mitigate.

          Biovail Laboratories Inc. (Biovail) has filed a demand for arbitration
     against the Company with the American Arbitration Association.  The dispute
     relates  to  a  supply   agreement   under  which  the   Company   supplied
     extended-release verapamil to Biovail. The Company terminated the agreement
     in March 2001. Biovail's allegations include breach of contract,  breach of
     implied  covenant of good faith and fair dealing,  and unfair  competition.
     While this  matter is in its early  stages,  the  Company  believes  it has
     meritorious  defenses  to the claims  asserted  by Biovail  and  intends to
     vigorously  defend its position.  An adverse  outcome could have a material
     adverse  effect on the  Company's  results of operations  and/or  financial
     position.

                                       23

          NAPRO  Biotherapeutics  Inc.  (NAPRO)  and  Abbott  Laboratories  Inc.
     (Abbott) filed suit against the Company in United States  Federal  District
     Court for the  Western  District  of  Pennsylvania.  Plaintiffs  allege the
     Company's manufacture, use and sale of paclitaxel infringes certain patents
     owned by NAPRO and allegedly  licensed to Abbott. The Company began selling
     paclitaxel on July 25, 2001.  Abbott has filed an ANDA seeking  approval to
     sell paclitaxel.  The regulatory review status of the Abbott application is
     unknown to the Company. While this suit is in its early stages, the Company
     believes it has meritorious  defenses to the claims asserted and intends to
     vigorously defend its position.  An adverse outcome in this suit could have
     a material  adverse  effect on the Company's  results of operations  and/or
     financial position.

          We are involved in various other legal proceedings that are considered
     normal to our  business.  While it is not  feasible to predict the ultimate
     outcome of such other proceedings, it is the opinion of management that the
     ultimate outcome of such other proceedings will not have a material adverse
     effect on our results of operations or financial position.
