1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
    accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
    financial information, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
    Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of management, all
    adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring accruals) considered necessary
    for fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three
    months ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results
    that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1997.  These financial
    statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial
    statements and accompanying notes contained in the Company's Annual Report
    on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

2.  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

         Cash equivalents include short-term highly liquid investments
    purchased at cost, which approximate market, with original maturities of
    three months or less.
       
3.  INVESTMENTS

         Investments in debt securities with a remaining maturity of more than
    three months at the date of purchase are classified as marketable
    securities. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt
    securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of
    each balance sheet date.  Debt securities are classified as 
    available-for-sale as of March 31, 1997.  The book value of the investments
    approximates their estimated market value.  The estimated market value of
    investments by security type is as follows:

5.  NET LOSS PER SHARE

         Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of
    shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented. The fully
    diluted loss per share assumes the conversion of preferred shares
    outstanding prior to the Company's initial public offering (the "Offering")
    to common shares as of the beginning of the period.  The loss per share for
    periods prior to the closing date of the Offering also gives effect to the
    requirements of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 83 (SAB 83).

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 AND 1996

    GENERAL.  The net loss applicable to common stockholders increased by
$105,695, or 7.2%, for the three months ended March 31, 1997, to $1,576,928 from
$1,471,233 for the same period in 1996.  The increase was due primarily to
increased spending on research and development of approximately $422,000 offset
by decreased interest expense of approximately $304,000.  Historical spending
levels are not indicative of future spending levels because the Company is
entering a period of rapid growth in product development activity, which is
planned to include increases in costs relating to research and development
activity, small-scale manufacturing and accelerated clinical trial activity. 
For these reasons, the Company believes its expenses and losses will increase
before any material product revenues are generated.  The immediately preceding
statement is a forward-looking statement within the meaning of the safe harbor
provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
("forward-looking statement").  This statement is subject to risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
projected, including unfavorable results in clinical trials, failure to identify
and enroll patients meeting clinical criteria, additional testing required by
regulatory authorities, failure to obtain regulatory approvals or development of
alternative therapies by competitors.  Because actual results may differ,
readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on this forward-looking
statement.

    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES.  Expenses for research and development
increased $422,355, or 60.6%, for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to
$1,119,214 from $696,859 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. 
Approximately $130,000 of the increase was from associated personnel expense;
approximately $89,000 of the increase was due to increased expenses associated
with the SPORIDIN-G Phase II/III clinical trial; approximately $76,000 was from
increased development and clinical expenses for DIFFISTAT-G; and approximately
$75,000 was for increased development and clinical expenses for the Company's
other products including CANDISTAT-G and PYLORIMUNE-G and increased pilot plant
operating costs.  The Company expects research and development expenses to
increase as the Company's clinical trials activity accelerates.  The immediately
preceding statement is a forward-looking statement subject to risks and
uncertainties, including those discussed in the immediately preceding paragraph,
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. 
Because actual results may differ, readers are cautioned not to place undue
reliance on this forward-looking statement.

    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative expenses
increased $98,746, or 20.8%, for the three months ended March 31, 1997 to
$573,996 from $475,250 for the first quarter of 1996. Approximately $79,000 of
the increase was from increased outside service charges, primarily legal counsel
and public relations support.

    INTEREST INCOME.  Interest income was $116,282 for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and $5,080 for the same period in 1996.  The increase in interest
income was due to the investment of funds received by the Company from the
Offering.
 
    INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense was zero for the three months ended
March 31, 1997 and $304,204 for the same period in 1996.  Interest expense for
the first quarter of 1996 was due entirely to the valuation of  warrants issued
both to guarantors of a line of credit for the Company and to purchasers of 


                                       8


the Company's Promissory Notes prior to the conversion of the Convertible 
Promissory Notes into Common Stock upon the closing of the Offering.
    
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company was incorporated in March 1992.  On July 24, 1992, Procor, the
Company's predecessor, was merged with and into the Company (the "Procor-GalaGen
Merger").  At the time of the Procor-GalaGen Merger, Procor was a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Land O'Lakes, Inc. ("Land O'Lakes").  Since the Company's
inception through March 31, 1997, investments in the Company have totaled
approximately $50.6 million, including approximately $7.1 million of
inter-company obligations payable to Land O'Lakes which were forgiven and
recorded as contributed capital at the time of the Procor-GalaGen Merger, $17.9
million from the Offering (after deducting underwriting discounts and offering
expenses) and approximately $25.6 million from private placements of equity and
convertible debt and from conversion of accrued interest on such debt and the
exercise of stock options and warrants.  The Company has invested funds received
in the Offering and these private placements in investment-grade,
interest-bearing obligations.

    Cash used in operating activities increased by $1,037,433, or 92.2%, for
the three months ended March 31, 1997 to $2,162,206 from $1,124,773 for the same
period in 1996. Cash used in operations for the three month period ended March
31, 1997 went primarily to fund operating losses and for repayment of current
liabilities.  For the three month period ended March 31, 1996 cash used in
operations went primarily to fund operating losses.

    For the three months ended March 31, 1997 the Company redeemed $1,130,696
of its available-for-sale securities and invested $249,797 in equipment and
tenant improvements related to the Company's pilot plant manufacturing facility.
The Company invested $34,065 for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and
$1,491 for the same period in 1996 in lab equipment, computer equipment and
software and furniture used primarily to support the Company's operations. 

    The Company anticipates that its existing resources and interest thereon 
will be sufficient to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements through 
approximately the first quarter of 1998.  This statement regarding the 
Company's anticipated cash requirements is a forward-looking statement 
subject to risks and uncertainties, including those discussed below, that 
could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected.  
Because actual results may differ, readers are cautioned not to place undue 
reliance on this forward-looking statement.  The Company's working capital 
and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the 
progress of the Company's clinical trials and research and development 
programs and the timing of and cost of obtaining regulatory approvals.  The 
Company's capital requirements also will depend on the levels of resources 
devoted to the development of manufacturing and marketing capabilities, 
technological advances, the status of competitive products and the ability of 
the Company to establish strategic alliances to provide research and 
development funding to the Company. 

    The Company expects to incur substantial additional research and
development and other costs, including costs related to clinical studies, as
well as capital expenditures necessary to obtain licensure of the existing GMP
pilot plant facility and to establish additional commercial scale GMP
manufacturing relationships.  The Company will need to raise substantial
additional funds for longer term product development, manufacturing and
marketing activities it plans to undertake in the future.  The Company's ability
to continue funding its planned operations beyond the first quarter of 1998 is
dependent upon its ability to obtain additional funds through equity or debt
financing, strategic alliances, license agreements or from other financing
sources.  A lack of adequate funding could eventually result in the insolvency
or bankruptcy of the Company.  At a minimum, if adequate funds are not
available, the Company may be required to delay or to eliminate expenditures for
certain of its product development efforts or to license 


                                       9


to third parties the rights to commercialize products or technologies that 
the Company would otherwise seek to develop itself.  Because of the Company's 
significant long-term capital requirements, it may seek to raise funds when 
conditions are favorable, even if it does not have an immediate need for such 
additional capital at such time.  If the Company has not raised funds prior 
to such time as the Company's needs for funding become immediate, the Company 
may be forced to raise funds when conditions are unfavorable which could 
result in dilution to the Company's current stockholders.
