ITEM 1. BUSINESS (a) & (b) General Development of Business and Financial Information About Industry Segments Faulding Inc. (the "Company"), through Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. ("Purepac"), a wholly-owned subsidiary, is primarily engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of generic oral drug products. Through acquisitions, as noted below, the Company recently has expanded its operations into the generic injectable and medical device businesses. The Company was incorporated in Delaware on September 2, 1982. On February 29, 1996, the Company's name was changed to Faulding Inc in conjunction with the acquisition transaction discussed herein (see "Acquisitions"). The Company's executive offices and principal research, manufacturing and distribution facilities are located at 200 Elmora Avenue, Elizabeth, New Jersey 07207; its telephone number is (908) 527-9100. A majority of the outstanding common stock of the Company is owned by Faulding Holdings Inc. ( Holdings ), a wholly-owned subsidiary of F.H. Faulding & Co. Limited ( Faulding ), a major Australian pharmaceutical company. Acquisitions On February 29, 1996 the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of each of Faulding Medical Device Co. ("FMD"), Faulding Puerto Rico, Inc. ("FPR"), and Faulding Pharmaceutical Co. ("FPC"), collectively the "Acquired Companies," from Holdings in exchange for 2,438,712 shares of its common stock. As part of the acquisition, the Company created a Class B Preferred Stock with 150,000 authorized shares, par value at $.01, all of which were issued to Holdings for a cash purchase price of $100 per share, resulting in net proceeds to the Company. All subsequent references herein to the Company shall be deemed to include the Acquired Companies unless otherwise stated. Acquired Companies FMD is engaged in the design, development and commercialization of disposable medical devices and injectable drug delivery system devices. FPR operates a parenteral product pharmaceutical manufacturing facility producing a variety of generic injectable pharmaceuticals in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. 2 FPC was established to market the products manufactured by FPR and certain injectable generic drug products manufactured by Faulding and licensed to FPC. (c) Description of Business Introduction A generic drug contains the same active drug substances as and is the therapeutic equivalent of a brand name drug for which patent protection, granted by the United States Patent Office and/or exclusivity granted by the United States Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA"), has expired. Accordingly, a generic drug is marketed under its chemical name or under a brand name promoted by its generic manufacturer. While subject to the same government standards as its brand name equivalent, a generic drug is usually marketed at a substantially lower price. Sales of generic drugs have increased significantly in recent years, due in substantial part to greater awareness and acceptance of generic drugs by physicians, pharmacists and the general public. Among the factors contributing to such increased awareness and acceptance have been the enactment and modification of laws in most states permitting (or in some instances requiring) physicians or pharmacists to substitute generic drugs for brand name drugs, and the publication by the FDA of a list of therapeutically equivalent drugs which provides physicians and pharmacists with the approved sources of generic drug alternatives for each drug product. In addition, since generic drugs are typically sold at prices substantially below those of brand name drugs, the prescribing of generic drugs has been encouraged and, in some instances, required by various government agencies and private health insurers as a cost-saving measure in the purchase of, or reimbursement for, drug products. Products The Company markets generic prescription drugs in oral solid (tablet and capsule), and injectable forms. In accordance with FDA requirements, each dosage strength and form of a generic drug is considered a separate drug product. Classification of the Company's drug products and their number can be generally summarized as follows: antibiotic and anti-infective drugs (6); anti-cancer drugs (6); cardiovascular drugs (37); anti-inflammatories (14); analgesics (10); anti-depressants and tranquilizers (33); and all others (24). Sales of prescription oral drug products and injectable forms represented 84% and 16%, respectively, of the Company's revenue for the year ended June 30, 1996. For the year ended June 30, 1995, prescription oral drugs, injectables, and over-the-counter non-prescription drugs ("OTC") represented 93%, 6% and 1%, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 1994, prescription oral drugs, injectables 3 and OTC represented 96%, 3% and 1%, respectively. A majority of the Company's oral products is sold under its Purepac(R) label and the balance is sold under private label agreements with certain pharmaceutical distributors. The majority of the Company's injectable products is sold under the Faulding(R) label. Nifedipine, the generic version of Pfizer's PROCARDIA (R) cardiovascular product, accounted for 4%, 11% and 13% of the Company's revenue for its years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively. In 1992 and subsequent years, additional companies received approval from the FDA to sell nifedipine and entered the market. It is typical in the generic drug industry for the first companies selling a new generic product to initially have a relatively high profit margin, which then decreases as selling prices decline when more companies enter the market. Nifedipine has also received adverse publicity which has reduced overall demand for the immediate release form sold by Purepac. New Product Development Research and development expenditures for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994 amounted to $10,361, $7,729 and $7,562, respectively. During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company's new product development program remained focused on AB-rated (substitutable) generic equivalents to a number of immediate-release and modified-release oral prescription products, injectable products and drug delivery devices. Purepac: During the year ended June 30, 1996, Purepac received FDA approval for three new generic drug products: diclofenac sodium delayed-release tablets and two immediate release products, indapamide tablets and diflunisal tablets. Diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory product, accounted for 9% of the Company's revenue during the year ended June 30, 1996. During the year ended June 30, 1995, Purepac received FDA approval for one new generic drug product. During the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, Purepac filed, respectively, six and two Abbreviated New Drug Applications ("ANDAs") for solid oral dose products. At each of June 30, 1996 and 1995, Purepac, respectively, had seven ANDAs pending approval. No assurance can be given as to the receipt or timing of ANDA approvals and the commercial significance of any products so approved. See "Government Regulation." Acquired Companies: During the year ended June 30, 1996, the Company, through FPC and FMD, filed four ANDAs for the approval of new injectable products and two 4 510K submissions for the approval of new medical devices, and received FDA approval for one anti-cancer drug product, mitomycin, for injection. At June 30, 1996, the Acquired Companies had four ANDAs and two 510K submissions pending approvals. Marketing and Customers The Company markets its products primarily through a sales force of 15 people. The Company's customers include drug wholesalers, national and regional retail drugstore chains, drug distributors and hospitals. At June 30, 1996, the Company had approximately 241 customers. For the year ended June 30, 1996, three customers each accounted for approximately 11%, 10% and 10% of sales. The Company believes that the loss of any two or more of these customers could have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flow. For the year ended June 30, 1995, three customers each accounted for approximately 12%, 11% and 10% of sales. For the year ended June 30, 1994, two customers each accounted for approximately 12% and 11% of sales. The backlog of firm orders at June 30, 1996 was $1,862, compared with $1,050 at June 30, 1995 and $3,904 at June 30, 1994. The Company does not believe that its backlog is material in the understanding of its historical and prospective operations as annual fluctuations are primarily attributable to unpredictable timing differences in receipt of product orders. The Company anticipates that it will fill all of its June 30, 1996 backlog during its year ending June 30, 1997. Seasonality is not a factor in the Company's business. Manufacturing and Sources of Supply The Company manufactures and packages more than 90% of its products (measured as a percentage of revenue) in its own manufacturing facilities (Refer to Item 2 hereof, Properties). Approximately 5% is sourced under a licensing agreement with and manufactured by Faulding for certain generic injectable products, including anti-cancer products. The balance of the Company's products are manufactured to its specifications by a number of outside contractors. Alternative contract manufacturing sources are available. Raw materials essential to the conduct of the Company's business are pharmaceutical chemicals and packaging components which it purchases in bulk from a variety of sources. Historically, the Company has not experienced any significant difficulty in obtaining the raw materials it requires. If raw materials from a current supplier were to become unavailable, approval for a replacement supplier must be sought from the FDA. The FDA approval process could cause a delay of several months or longer in the manufacture of the product so impacted. 5 Environmental Matters (Dollars in thousands) The Company's operations require it to comply with a broad variety of laws, statutes and regulations which are intended to protect both the environment and the industrial workplace including, among others, the Federal Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, Resources Conservation and Recovery Act, Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act, Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and the Occupational and Safety Health Act, as well as their state and local equivalents, if any. The Company believes that it is currently in substantial compliance with all federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations applicable to its business as now conducted. During the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, the Company expended $106, $55 and $24, respectively, for environmental control equipment in connection with the expansion of its manufacturing facilities. Capital expenditures for environmental control equipment for the year ending June 30, 1997 are estimated to be $170. Competition The Company competes with a number of other generic pharmaceutical companies in a highly competitive and fragmented segment of the health-care industry. In addition, many brand name companies with substantially greater financial resources for research, development and marketing are entering the generic market. Principal competitive factors in the generic drug market include regulatory compliance, price, customer service (including prompt fulfillment of orders) and the ability to introduce generic versions of brand name drugs promptly after the date of patent expiration granted by the United States Patent Office and/or exclusivity granted by the FDA. Government Regulation Pharmaceutical manufacturers are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA and other government agencies and authorities. Various federal laws and regulations govern the testing, manufacturing, safety, labeling, packaging, storage, pricing, advertising and promotion of the Company's generic drug products. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations may result in the imposition of fines, recall and/or seizure of products, suspension of manufacturing and FDA refusal to approve new drug applications. 6 Regulatory Approval Process The Company's product line primarily consists of generic drug products which contain the same active ingredient as the innovator (brand name) product. The dosage form, route of administration and strength must be the same as the innovator's product that was previously approved by the FDA under a full New Drug Application (NDA). The NDA includes the results of clinical trials that demonstrate safety and efficacy. Each generic drug product is subject to prior FDA approval through the submission of an ANDA or Abbreviated Antibiotic Drug Application ("AADA"). An ANDA must contain essentially the same information as a full NDA, with the exception of safety and efficacy data. Since a generic drug product contains the same active ingredient in the same amount as the innovator product, it is assumed to have the same safety and efficacy profile. A generic product must be bioequivalent to the innovator product referenced in the application. Applications for most solid oral dosage forms must, therefore, contain data which demonstrate that the proposed generic drug product has the same rate and extent of systemic absorption as the innovator product. An in-vivo bioavailability study is typically conducted in healthy human subjects to meet this requirement. In addition, the generic product must meet appropriate in-vitro (dissolution) criteria. For most injectable drug products, an in-vivo bioequivalence study is not normally required. Quality Control testing of all drug products is conducted to ensure that the product meets compendial (United States Pharmacopeia) standards and in-house specifications, as applicable. Recent Trends in FDA Procedures The FDA has placed greater emphasis on the filing of complete ANDAs by all generic drug product manufacturers, including the Company, and has enunciated its position that it will not accept any application that does not contain all necessary information as specified in the FDA's current guidelines. In addition, the FDA has imposed more stringent requirements on various aspects of the product development process, the need for development of new procedures and increased documentation, all of which extend the time required for manufacturers, including the Company, to prepare and file ANDAs. Further, review times are also being affected by a reduction in staff levels at the FDA. Another major component of the FDA's review process, applicable to all generic drug manufacturers, is the product specific pre-approval inspection in which the FDA focuses on the development of the drug product, the manufacture of exhibit batches and the applicant's capability to manufacture that product in accordance 7 with the methods and specifications defined in the ANDA. This manner of inspection may also potentially lengthen the approval time for ANDAs. A significant new guideline was issued by the FDA in November 1995. This guidance relaxed the regulatory requirements for the implementation of scale-up and post approval changes ("SUPAC"). This guideline is intended to save the industry considerable time and money in manufacturing efficiencies. Good Manufacturing Practices As a manufacturer of pharmaceutical products, the Company is also subject to current Good Manufacturing Practices ("cGMP") standards promulgated by the FDA. Failure to comply with such standards may result in, among other actions, the suspension of production and possibly the seizure of non- complying products. Medicaid Prudent Pharmaceutical Purchasing Act of 1991 Effective January 1, 1991, all generic pharmaceutical manufacturers were required to pay a rebate, equal to 10% of the manufacturer's average net selling price, for each prescription of its products reimbursed by the states under Medicaid. As of January 1, 1994, the rebate percent increased to 11%. Proposed Health Care Regulation Numerous proposals for health care regulation and reform have recently been proposed at both the federal and state levels. These proposals, generally, seek to reduce the cost of health care and increase its availability and efficiency. It cannot be determined at this time which, if any, of such proposals will be enacted and, to the extent enacted, what effect such proposals will have on the price, distribution and marketing of pharmaceutical products, including those of the Company. Employees At June 30, 1996, the Company employed 465 full-time employees. Of these, 58 were executive and administrative personnel. Personnel primarily engaged in research, product development and regulatory activities totaled 77. Marketing and sales personnel totaled 29. Production and distribution personnel totaled 215, while quality assurance and quality control totaled 86. Collective bargaining agreements between the Company and Locals 575 and 815 of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters expiring in January 1997 and January 1999, respectively, covered 119 employees as of June 30, 1996. The Company has not experienced a material work stoppage in the past five years and believes that its current labor relations are satisfactory. 8 ITEM 2. PROPERTIES The Company's executive offices, as well as research, production, principal warehouse and distribution facilities, are housed in a 245,000 square foot facility with two adjoining acres of parking space in Elizabeth, New Jersey. In addition, the Company leases a 13,000 square foot distribution center in Sparks, Nevada and a 38,000 square foot warehouse and office building in Linden, New Jersey, a 3,000 square foot office and development laboratory in Scottsdale, Arizona and a 68,000 square foot facility, comprised of seven buildings in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. The Company believes that its facilities will be sufficient to satisfy its anticipated needs for the proximate future. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On September 11, 1995, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey granted the Company's motion to dismiss a complaint filed against the Company and certain of its former senior executives in a lawsuit entitled Dechter vs. Purepac, Inc., Robert H. Bur and Russell J. Reardon, 94 Civ. 6195. Pursuant to the court's decision, the plaintiffs had the opportunity to file a motion with the court to submit a proposed amended complaint. The plaintiffs elected not to file such a motion, thereby terminating such litigation. Pursuant to an agreement dated as of December 31, 1995, the Company has settled certain litigation entitled Merck & Co., Inc. v. Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. Case No. 95-495 in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. In accordance with such agreement, the Company is to receive a cash settlement. The proceeds will be payable in three equal annual installments. In addition the Company has agreed not to pursue the marketing or sale of the pharmaceutical product which was the subject of the litigation in the United States until the patent expiration, currently expected in the year 2006. On August 21, 1996, an action was commenced against the Company, Purepac, Faulding and Zeneca, Inc. in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware entitled Purdue Pharma L.P. and the Purdue Frederick Company vs. F.H. Faulding & Co. Limited, Faulding Inc., Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. and Zeneca Inc., 96 Civ.427. The complaint alleges that the manufacture and marketing in the United States of KADIAN (TM) infringes a patent assigned to one of the plaintiffs and constitutes unfair competitive practices under Federal and State law. The Company, through Purepac, manufactures KADIAN (TM) pursuant to a contract manufacturing agreement with Faulding. Zeneca Inc. is the U.S. distributor of KADIAN (TM). The complaint seeks, among other things, an order enjoining the Company and Purepac from the commercial manufacture of KADIAN (TM) and treble and punitive damages in the event that the defendants have violated Federal or State unfair competitive and deceptive trade practices law. 9 While the Company has not yet been served in the action , the Company believes the allegations in the complaint to be entirely without merit and intends, in cooperation with its co-defendants, to vigorously defend this action. The commencement of the action did not impact the launch of KADIAN (TM) . The Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business, in addition to the above matters, and does not believe that the ultimate adverse resolutions of any, or all, thereof would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the last quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. 9 PART II ITEM 5.

Therefore, financial operating data presented for the years ended June 30, 1995 and 1994 and balance sheet data as of June 30, 1995 have been restated as if the acquisitions took place as of July 1, 1993. The data reflects the accounts of Faulding Inc. and the Acquired Companies. Financial operating data presented for the years ended June 30, 1993 and 1992 and balance sheet data as of June 30, 1994, 1993 and 1992 has not neen restated as the restated amounts would not significantly differ the amounts presented. As FPR and FPC did not commence operations until April 7, 1995, the Acquired Companies' operations reflect only the results of FMD for the year ended June 30, 1994. The year ended June 30, 1995 reflects the year's results of FMD and less than three months' results of FPR and FPC. (a) Net income available for common stock for the year ended June 30, 1994 included the favorable cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes of $4,149. (b) Net income available for common stock for the year ended June 30, 1992 included the unfavorable cumulative effect on prior years of a change in the method of accounting for income taxes of $122. ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (Dollars in thousands) Overview: Acquisitions On February 29, 1996 the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of each of Faulding Medical Device Co. ("FMD"), Faulding Puerto Rico, Inc. ("FPR"), and Faulding Pharmaceutical Co. ("FPC"), collectively the "Acquired Companies," from Faulding Holdings Inc. (the Company's majority stockholder) in exchange for 2,438,712 shares of its common stock. This acquisition transaction was accounted for as similar to a pooling of interests and, therefore, commencing July 1, 1993 financial statements for the periods presented have been restated as if the acquisition took place at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The financial statements reflect the accounts of the Company (including Purepac) and the Acquired Companies. Since the acquisitions were accounted for as similar to a pooling of interests, acquisition expenses of $1,043 were charged against the results of operations during the year ended June 30, 1996. 12 Results of Operations Year Ended June 30, 1996 Compared with the Year Ended June 30, 1995 The following sets forth the pre-tax operating results of , respectively, the Company prior to its acquisition of the Acquired Companies.

Purepac Results of Operations Net sales for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were $19,667 and $63,822, respectively, compared with $14,319 and $61,146 for the 13 corresponding 1995 periods. The increase in the fourth quarter's result of 37% over the prior year's period is primarily due to initial net sales of diclofenac, which was approved in March 1996. Diclofenac sales in the fourth quarter represented 23% of the quarter's sales. For the twelve months ended June 30, 1996, net sales increased by 4%, due principally to the diclofenac sales offset by competition impacting on Purepac's mature product line, which includes the product nifedipine. In addition to diclofenac, FDA approvals of diflunisal and indapamide were received by Purepac, respectively, in May and June 1996. In addition, initial sales from the contract manufacturing of KADIAN (TM) for Faulding Services Inc. were recorded in the quarter ended June 1996. Faulding Services Inc. is a 100% owned subsidiary of Holdings. Gross profit for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were $6,991 and $16,710, respectively, compared with $2,928 and $14,670 for the corresponding 1995 periods. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were 36% and 26%, compared with 20% and 24% for the corresponding periods in the prior year. For the three and twelve month periods respectively, the increase in gross profit was due to the sales of diclofenac late in the third fiscal quarter 1996, partially offset by price erosion due to competition impacting on Purepac's mature product line. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current three and twelve month periods were $2,746 and $8,997, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year's respective amounts of $2,504 and $9,817. Current period expenses as a percentage of net sales were 14% and 14%, respectively, compared with 18% and 16% for the corresponding prior year's periods. In addition, Purepac incurred $1,043 in acquisition expenses in the twelve months to June 30, 1996 related to the purchase of the Acquired Companies, and an additional $842 in costs related to the restructuring of the Purepac business, primarily organizational and personnel changes. No such acquisition or restructuring costs were incurred in the prior financial year. Research and development expenses for the current three and twelve month periods were $2,331 and $9,054, respectively. This equates to 12% and 14% of net sales. Expenses for the prior year's corresponding periods were $1,632 (11%) and $6,741 (11%). The increase in research and development expenses was mainly due to an increase in biostudies costs required as part of the ANDA submission process to the FDA, in addition to the recruitment of key new scientific personnel. Other income/(expense) for the current three and twelve month periods were $24 and $1,625, respectively, compared with ($39) and ($63), respectively, in the prior year's corresponding periods. The $1,625 for the current twelve month period is mainly attributable to the settlement of a patent litigation by Purepac which was recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 1995 and is non-recurrent. 14 Net income/(loss) before income tax for the current three and twelve month periods were $1,729 and $(1,601), respectively. If the acquisition and restructuring costs were excluded for the current year's reported periods, the net income would be $1,938 and $284. These results compare to net losses before income tax for the prior year's corresponding periods of $1,247 and $1,951. The results for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were affected by negative pricing pressures within the oral generic pharmaceutical industry, partly counterbalanced by new product approvals for diclofenac, diflunisal, indapamide and contract manufacturing income for KADIAN (TM). The future financial results will continue to be dependent on the ability of income from sales of new products to counter ongoing price erosion within the industry. Acquired Companies The Acquired Companies became wholly owned subsidiaries of Faulding Inc. effective March 1, 1996. FPC and FPR did not commence operations until April 7, 1995; hence the prior year represents the full-year operating results of FMD and less than three months operating results for FPC and FPR. Current and prior year net sales for FMD relate to a distribution agreement with a third party -- which was terminated as of December 31, 1995 -- for products sourced from F.H. Faulding & Co. Limited ("Faulding"), the beneficial majority stockholder of Faulding Inc. The products previously sold under that agreement, together with additional products sourced from Faulding, are now being sold by FPC. Consequently, comparison with the prior year is not representative and hence the following analysis principally relates to current year operating results. Net sales for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were $3,905 and $11,962, respectively. Of these net sales, 51% and 70%, respectively, were related to products manufactured at the FPR production facility in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico. These products were sold either under contract manufacturing agreements or by FPC to its customers in the USA. The majority of the remainder of the net sales comprises products manufactured by and licensed from Faulding. Net sales in the current three month period included mitomycin, which sales commenced in the third quarter, licensed from Faulding, and approved by the FDA for marketing in November 1995. Gross profits for the three and twelve month periods ended June 30, 1996 were $485 and $677, respectively. Gross profits were unfavorably impacted by both under utilization of the production facility in Puerto Rico and production related expenses incurred by FMD, which did not record any related net sales during the periods. Gross profit in the current three month period included earnings from the sales of mitomycin. 15 Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current three and twelve month periods were $880 and $2,867, respectively, representing principally selling expenses associated with FPC. Research and development expenses include the development costs associated with FMD. Expenses for the current three and twelve months were $289 and $1,307, respectively. Net loss before income tax for the three and twelve month periods to June 30, 1996 were $684 and $4,100, respectively. Of the current twelve month loss before income tax, $3,005 was incurred prior to the Acquired Companies becoming wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. Consolidated Income Tax Benefit The calculation of the provision (benefit) for income taxes of the Company, which includes Purepac and the Acquired Companies, has been prepared in accordance with accounting for the acquisitions as similar to a pooling of interests consistently applying Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 ("SFAS109"). For the three month period ended June 30, 1996, Purepac's net income before income taxes resulted in the recording of an income tax provision of $671. Purepac's net loss before income tax for the twelve month current period resulted in the recording of an income tax benefit of $252. For the Acquired Companies, only the net loss before income tax since acquisition can be consolidated into the Company's income tax returns. As a result, an income tax benefit of $291 and $449 has been included in the three and twelve month current periods, respectively. The income tax benefit of the net losses prior to acquisition have been fully reserved against as the recovery of these losses is dependent on future taxable income of each of the respective companies, which at present cannot be assured. Year Ended June 30, 1995 Compared With the Year Ended June 30, 1994 (As restated) Net sales for the year ended June 30, 1995 was $64,905 compared with $71,952 for the prior year ended June 30, 1994. The decrease reflects lower sales of certain mature products including nifedipine, primarily due to declines in selling prices and to a lesser degree volume reductions of some products as a result of competitive pressures, partially offset by increased sales of several new products. The nifedipine products accounted for 11% of net sales for the year compared with 13% for the prior year. 16 Gross profit for the year was $15,618 compared with $23,417 for the prior year, a decline of $7,799 (33%). The gross profit as a percent of net sales for the year ended June 30, 1995 was 24% compared with 33% for the prior year ended June 30, 1994. The decline was attributable primarily to lower sales due to increased competition and to a lesser extent to higher raw material costs. The selling, general and administrative expenses for the year ended June 30, 1995 were $10,191 compared with $9,410 for the prior year ended June 30, 1994, an increase of $782 (8%). The expense as a percent of net sales was 16% compared with 13% for the prior year. The increase was primarily due to higher personnel expenses. The research and development expenses for the year remained relatively constant at $7,729 compared with the prior year expense of $7,562. The expense as a percent of net sales for the year ended June 30, 1995 was 12% compared with 11% for the prior year ended June 30, 1994. The steady level of expense reflects the continuing commitment to new product development. Other income/(expense) of ($390) for the year ended June 30, 1995 included interest expense of $432 partially offset by interest income of $42. The corresponding prior year other income of $149 included interest income of $102 and income of $200 from the sale of the Company's Poroplastic technology to Faulding, partially offset by interest expense of $153. The interest income decline was primarily due to the reduction of cash available for investment. The interest expense for both years primarily includes the interest expense of the Acquired Companies as well as the revolving credit agreement fees of the Company. The effective income tax (benefit) rate for the year ended June 30, 1995 was (40%) compared with 39% for the year ended June 30, 1994 before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes. Net loss for the year ended June 30, 1995 before preferred stock dividends was $1,618 compared with net income for the prior year before preferred stock dividends of $3,992. Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company had $1,897 in cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1996, compared with $1,225 at June 30, 1995. The current year's increase of $672 resulted primarily from $15,000 in cash provided by the issuance of the Class B preferred stock associated with the February 29, 1996 acquisitions and $4,769 provided by additions to paid-in capital. This was offset by $13,302 used for operating activities, $3,795 for investments in property, plant and equipment and $2,000 to repay bank loans. 17 A comparison of the balance sheet accounts at June 30, 1996 to the June 30, 1995 balances shows the following to be noteworthy: Accounts receivable increased by $6,019 due to the higher sales level, primarily in the last quarter. Included in the reserves for doubtful accounts and sales allowances is the allowance for sales returns, allowances and discounts of $3,135 at June 30, 1996 compared with $2,497 at June 30, 1995, an increase of $638. This increase is primarily due to increases of $427 in the provision for floor stock price adjustments and $195 in the provision for credits owed to direct source buying groups. The increase in the provision for such allowances had an adverse effect on net sales and operations with no effect on cash flows. Inventory increased by $5,658 primarily in raw materials due to higher sales volumes and in anticipation of increased production. In addition, inventory levels within FPC increased to meet anticipated sales of the products licensed from Faulding. Due to affiliated companies increased by $2,663 primarily due to the additional products licensed by and purchased from Faulding by FPC, primarily during the prior six month period. The accrued preferred dividends payable to Holdings, of $689 for the three month period ended June 30, 1996 was subsequently paid on July 1, 1996. In October 1995, the Company made the decision to restructure certain aspects of its business. This restructuring was considered necessary to prepare the Company to be more competitive in the oral generic pharmaceutical industry. Also, this restructuring is expected to better position the Company to integrate the Acquired Companies. Costs associated with this restructuring, including severance payments, totaled $842. The Company believes that its current cash resources, anticipated operating cash flows and funds available under a revolving credit and loan arrangement with a bank will be sufficient to fund its working capital needs for the next 24 months. In addition, it is not anticipated that the Acquired Companies will generate adequate revenues to finance their combined operating expenses until at least 1998. Depending upon the timing of the Company's cash flow requirements, which is highly dependent upon the unpredictable timing of the receipt of FDA product approvals, the future cash flow needs of the Company could exceed the Company's current cash resources and its available credit under its existing credit facilities. As of June 30, 1996, the Company had $1,897 in cash, plus approximately $15,000 of available borrowings under its existing credit facilities. 18 Accordingly, the Company may need to seek additional credit facilities or to seek additional funding from sales of its securities or from other sources. The Company anticipates that it would be able to increase its credit facilities or obtain financing from other sources, should it require additional cash flow to support the commercialization of new products following receipt of FDA approval therefor. However, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available when required, if at all, or will be available upon terms the Company may deem commercially reasonable. New Accounting Pronouncements In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 "Accounting For Stock Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123") which requires that an employer's financial statements include expanded disclosure regarding stock-based employee compensation arrangements. The Company is evaluating the requirements of SFAS 123, which must be adopted during the Company's fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 121 Accounting For The Impairment Of Long-Lived Assets ( SFAS 121 ), which requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. To determine a loss, if any, to be recognized, the book value of the asset would be compared to the market value or expected future cash flow value. The Company is required to adopt SFAS 121 for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. During fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, the Company will adopt SFAS 121 and anticipates, based upon information currently available, that it will not have a material impact on its results of operations and financial position. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in February 1992. SFAS 109 is effective for years beginning after December 15, 1992. The Company adopted SFAS 109, effective July 1, 1993. This statement superseded SFAS 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes." The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 on the Company's financial statements, for the year ended June 30, 1994 increased income by $4,149 with a corresponding increase in the deferred tax asset.

Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 8. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Faulding Inc. and its subsidiaries at June 30, 1996 and 1995, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, such a financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. As discussed in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes effective July 1, 1993, to conform with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109.

Organization and Business The Company is a manufacturer of oral generic drugs for sale primarily to drug wholesalers, drugstore chains, and distributors in the United States. After the February 29, 1996 acquisitions (as discussed herein), the Company has expanded its operations into the manufacturing and distribution of generic injectable drugs and medical devices, which products are targeted to be marketed to hospitals and drug wholesalers. At June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, 61%, 54% and 55%, respectively, of the outstanding common stock of Faulding Inc. (the "Company") was owned by Faulding Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of F. H. Faulding & Co. Limited ("Faulding"), a major Australian pharmaceutical company. On February 29, 1996, the Company changed its name from Purepac, Inc. to Faulding Inc. 2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies Acquisitions On February 29, 1996 the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of each of Faulding Medical Device Co. ("FMD"), Faulding Puerto Rico, Inc. ("FPR"), and Faulding Pharmaceutical Co. ("FPC"), collectively the "Acquired Companies," from Holdings (the Company's principal stockholder) in exchange for 2,438,712 shares of its common stock. As part of the acquisition, the Company created a Class B Preferred Stock with 150,000 authorized shares, par value at $.01, all of which were issued to Holdings for a cash purchase price of $100 per share, for a total value of $15 million. At the effective date of acquisition the authorized number of shares of common stock was increased from 25 million shares to 35 million shares. Principles of Consolidation The acquisition transaction was accounted for as similar to a pooling of interests and, therefore, financial statements for all periods presented have been restated as if the acquisition took place at the beginning of the earliest period presented. The financial statements reflect the accounts of Faulding Inc. (including its wholly owned subsidiary, Purepac Pharmaceutical Co.) and the Acquired Companies. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. 26 The combined operations reported in the Company's consolidated financial statements are comprised as follows: Year Ended June 30, Year Ended June 30, 1996 1995 ------------------- ------------------- Faulding Inc. (formerly Purepac, Inc.) - ------------------------ Net sales $ 63,822 $ 61,146 Cost of sales 47,112 46,476 Operating expenses 19,936 16,558 Net income (loss) before preferred stock dividends (1,349) (847) Combined Operations of Acquired Companies - ------------------------- Net sales $ 11,962 3,759 Cost of sales 11,285 2,811 Operating expenses 4,174 1,362 Net income (loss) before preferred stock dividends (3,651) (771) Consolidated Operations - -------------------------- Net sales $ 75,784 64,905 Cost of sales 58,397 49,287 Operating expenses 24,110 17,920 Net income (loss) before preferred stock dividends (5,001) (1,618) Note: The Acquired Companies' operations for the year ended June 30, 1995 reflect the year's results of FMD and three month's results of FPR and FPC, as they did not commence operations until April 7, 1995. Since the acquisition transaction was accounted for as similar to a pooling of interests, the acquisition expenses of $1,043 were charged to results of operations in the year ended June 30, 1996. The expenses include $576 for financial advisory services and $467 for professional fees. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 27 Fair Value of Financial Instruments The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosure for financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate value. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and payables approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Revenue Recognition Sales revenue is recognized upon shipment of the Company's products. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, certificates of deposit and commercial paper having original maturities of three months or less. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Property, Plant and Equipment Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Building and improvements 30 years Machinery and equipment 4-10 years Furniture and fixtures 5-10 years Leasehold improvements remaining term of lease 28 Trademarks and Patents Trademarks acquired by Purepac, included in other assets, are amortized over 40 years using the straight-line method, consist of the following: June 30, 1996 June 30, 1995 ------------- ------------- Cost $ 500 $ 500 Accumulated amortization (208) (195) ------------- ------------- Net book value $ 292 $ 305 ============= ============= Patents acquired by FMD, included in other assets, are amortized over 10 years using the straight-line method, consist of the following: June 30, 1996 June 30, 1995 ------------- ------------- Cost $ 381 $ 381 Accumulated amortization (57) (19) ------------- ------------- Net book value $ 324 $ 362 ============= ============= Research and Development Costs Research and development costs, including charges for such services provided by Faulding, are charged to operations as incurred and represent the Company's independent research and development efforts. Earnings Per Common Share Primary earnings per common share is calculated by (i) dividing income before cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes less preferred dividends by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year and (ii) by dividing the cumulative effect of a change in accounting for income taxes, if any, by such average number of common shares. Common stock equivalents are excluded as the effect is either not material or anti-dilutive. Earnings per share, assuming full dilution (principally from convertible preferred shares), is also presented for the year ended June 30, 1994 and is based on the assumption that all contingently issuable shares were outstanding from the beginning of the year to the extent dilution results. For the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, fully diluted earnings per share is not presented as the effect would be anti-dilutive. 29 Supplemental Cash Flow Information During the years ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company recognized a tax benefit when the Company issued 71,125 and 82,250 shares, respectively, of common stock to employees pursuant to the Company s 1991 Restricted Stock Incentive Plan. The transactions provided the Company with tax benefits equal to the fair market value of the stock on the date of issuance. For financial reporting purposes, the tax benefits were recorded as a reduction of the deferred tax asset to the extent previously provided and the remainder of the benefit was recorded as additional capital in excess of par value. During the year ended June 30, 1994, the Company recognized a tax benefit when a holder of nonstatutory stock options purchased 14,000 shares of common stock at $1.81 per share. This transaction provided the Company a tax benefit to the extent that the fair market value of the stock issued on the exercise date exceeded the option price. For financial reporting purposes, this benefit was recorded as additional capital in excess of par value. 3.

Commitments and Contingencies Leases The Company leases certain of its equipment and property under operating leases which provide for monthly lease payments and, in certain instances, provide options to purchase the property at fair market value. 39 The Company through FPR has a long-term lease for a seven building facility in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico from the Port Authority of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico which expires in the year 2020. For the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994, total rental expense for operating leases amounted to $867, $556 and $350, respectively. The following is a schedule of future minimum rental payments under such operating leases: Fiscal Year Ending June 30, ------------------------------------------ 1997 $ 704 1998 531 1999 252 2000 185 2001 178 Thereafter 3,386 Litigation On September 11, 1995, the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey granted the Company's motion to dismiss a complaint filed against the Company and certain of its former senior executives in a lawsuit entitled Dechter vs. Purepac, Inc., Robert H. Bur and Russell J. Reardon, 94 Civ. 6195. Pursuant to the court's decision, the plaintiffs had the opportunity to file a motion with the court to submit a proposed amended complaint. The plaintiffs elected not to file such a motion, thereby terminating such litigation. Pursuant to an agreement dated as of December 31, 1995, the Company has settled certain litigation entitled Merck & Co., Inc. v. Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. Case No. 95-495 in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. In accordance with such agreement, the Company is to receive a cash settlement. The proceeds will be payable in three equal annual installments. In addition the Company has agreed not to pursue the marketing or sale of the pharmaceutical product which was the subject of the litigation in the United States until the patent expiration in the year 2006. 40 On August 21, 1996, an action was commenced against the Company, Purepac, Faulding and Zeneca, Inc. in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware entitled Purdue Pharma L.P. and the Purdue Frederick Company vs. F.H. Faulding & Co. Limited, Faulding Inc., Purepac Pharmaceutical Co. and Zeneca Inc. 96 Civ.427. The complaint alleges that the manufacture and marketing in the United States of KADIAN (TM) infringes a patent assigned to one of the plaintiffs and constitutes unfair competitive practices under Federal and State law. The Company, through Purepac, manufactures KADIAN (TM) pursuant to a contract manufacturing agreement with Faulding, and Zeneca Inc. is its U.S. distributor. While the Company has not yet been served in the action, the complaint seeks, among other things, an order enjoining the Company from the commercial manufacture of KADIAN (TM) and treble and punitive damages in the event that the defendants have violated Federal or State unfair competitive and deceptive trade practices law. The Company believes the allegations in the complaint to be entirely without merit and intends, in cooperation with its co-defendants, to vigorously defend this action. The commencement of the action did not impact the launch of KADIAN (TM) . The Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business, in addition to the above matters, and does not believe that the ultimate adverse resolutions of any, or all, thereof would have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 13. Employee Benefit Plans In January 1990, the Company adopted a defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan"). The Plan covers employees who have one year or more of credited service and whose employment is not governed by a collective bargaining agreement. Net periodic pension cost is comprised of the components listed below, as determined using the projected unit credit actuarial cost method. The Company's funding policy is to make annual contributions to the Plan in such amounts necessary to fund benefits provided under the Plan on the basis of information furnished by the Company's actuary. 41 Year Ended June 30, -------------------------------- Net Periodic Pension Cost 1996 1995 1994 ------ ------ ------ Service cost for benefits earned during the period $ 506 $ 305 $ 338 Interest cost on projected benefit obligation 194 154 121 Return on plan assets (138) (88) (63) Amortization of prior service cost 19 19 29 Amortization of actuarial loss 34 1 33 ------ ------ ------ Total $ 615 $ 391 $ 458 ====== ====== ====== June 30, June 30, Funded Status and Obligation of the Plan 1996 1995 -------- -------- Actuarial present value of accumulated benefit obligations $ 1,703 $ 1,111 Vested benefits included in above 1,538 993 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Projected benefit obligation $ 3,373 $ 2,388 Plan assets at fair value (2,191) (1,462) Unrecognized prior service cost (155) (175) Unrecognized net gain (loss) (709) (201) Additional Liability 2 4 -------- -------- Accrued pension obligation $ 320 $ 554 ======== ======== The discount rate used in determining the projected benefit obligations was 7.25% at June 30, 1996, a decrease of .75% from June 30, 1995. The rate of increase in future compensation levels used in the determination was 5.5% for both June 30, 1996 and 1995. The expected long-term rate of return on the Plan's assets used in determining pension cost was 8% for both years. 42 The Company also has a 401(k) savings and investment plan established January 1, 1990, which allows employees to defer up to 15% of their salary, with the Company matching 25% of employees' contributions not exceeding 5% of their salary. The plan was amended, effective January 1, 1991, to increase the Company match from 25% to 50% of the first 5% of employees' contribution and, effective July 1, 1991, to increase the Company matching contribution to 50% of each employee's contribution not exceeding 6% of an employee's salary. The Company's contribution charged to operations for the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994 was $230, $224 and $196, respectively. 14. Income Taxes The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS 109"), effective July 1, 1993. This statement superseded Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes". The cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 109 on the Company's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1994, was to increase income by $4,149 ($.28 per primary common share and $.21 per share on a fully diluted basis) with a corresponding increase in the deferred tax asset. Beginning with the adoption of SFAS 109, the income tax expense provision does not include the benefit of recognizing available loss carryforwards to the extent they have already been recognized as a deferred tax asset. Instead, there will be a reduction in the deferred tax asset when such benefits are utilized to reduce taxes payable. Deferred income tax assets, both current and non-current, reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The decrease in the current year s deferred tax assets resulted primarily from the recognition of tax deductible items in the current year. 43 Net deferred tax assets consisted of the following as of: June 30, June 30, 1996 1995 ------------ ------------ Current Deferred Tax Asset: Reserve for doubtful accounts $ 989 $ 779 Reserve for inventory obsolescence 298 509 Sundry accruals 542 557 Federal operating loss carryforwards 1,197 1,021 Federal tax credit carryforwards 707 707 State operating loss carryforwards 168 198 ------------ ------------ 3,901 3,771 ------------ ------------ Current Deferred Tax Liability: Stock grant amortization 336 158 Receivables 216 --- Prepaids 68 96 Property, plant and equipment 56 4 ------------ ------------ 676 258 ------------ ------------ NET CURRENT DEFERRED TAX ASSET $ 3,225 $ 3,513 ============ ============ Non-Current Deferred Tax Asset: Stock grant amortization $ 359 $ 392 Federal operating loss carryforwards 4,677 3,416 State operating loss carryforwards 63 --- ------------ ------------ 5,099 3,808 ------------ ------------ Non-Current Deferred Tax Liability: Receivables 217 --- Property, plant and equipment 2,919 2,609 License amortization 385 285 ------------ ------------ 3,521 2,894 ------------ ------------ Valuation Allowance (740) --- ------------ ------------ NET NON-CURRENT DEFERRED TAX ASSET $ 838 $ 914 ============ ============ 44 The provision for income taxes was comprised of the following: Year Ended June 30, -------------------------------- 1996 1995 1994 ------- -------- ------- Current Federal $ (624) $(1,026) $ 1,047 State (77) (120) 366 ------- -------- ------- (701) (1,146) 1,413 Deferred Federal 61 1,149 State 11 40 ------- -------- ------- Total provision (benefit) $ (701) $ 1,074 $ 2,602 ======= ======== ======= The Company has net operating losses and tax credits available as carryforwards to reduce future federal income taxes. State tax losses are also available as carryforwards. At June 30, 1996, for federal tax purposes, the net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards amounted to $14,870 and $707, respectively; they expire through year 2003. The future utilization of the net operating loss carryforwards by the Company is subject to limitation under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. In addition, the Company will carryback its current year's federal net operating loss and recover approximately $1,340 of federal income tax. The benefit of net operating losses generated by the Acquired Companies prior to acquisition by the Company cannot be realized until the individual company generates taxable income to utilize such benefit. As of June 30, 1996 this had not occurred, a valuation allowance has been provided fully for these net operating losses. 45 A reconciliation of the statutory federal rate to the effective tax rate is as follows: Year Ended June 30, -------------------------- 1996 1995 1994 ----- ----- ---- Statutory federal rate (34%) (34%) 34% State taxes net of federal benefit (4) (4) 4 Loss of benefit of utilizing pre- acquisition net operating loss carryforwards 20 --- -- Non deductible acquisition expenses 6 --- -- Other (2) 1 --------------------------- Effective tax rate (12%) (40%) 39% ===== ===== ==== 15. Segment Information The Company operates in one business segment, the pharmaceutical industry. Primarily, the Company manufactures and sells oral generic pharmaceutical products and, since the February 29, 1996 acquisitions, the Company has expanded into the manufacturing, distribution and commercialization of generic injectable drugs and medical devices. For the year ended June 30, 1996, three customers each accounted for approximately 11%, 10%, and 10% of sales. Sales to the three customers were $8.7 million, $7.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 1995, three customers each accounted for approximately 12%, 11% and 10% of sales. Sales to the three customers were $7.8 million, $6.9 million and $6.3 million, respectively. For the year ended June 30, 1994, two customers each accounted for approximately 12% and 11% of sales. Sales to the two customers were $8.3 million and $8.1 million, respectively. 16. Subsequent Events On August 27, 1996, a customer of the Company, FoxMeyer Drug Co., filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The accounts receivable balance owed by FoxMeyer to the Company was approximately $1.4 million and $1.5 million on June 30, 1996 and August 27, 1996, respectively. Due to the uncertainties surrounding the bankruptcy filing, the impact on future results of operations and financial position cannot be determined. 46 SCHEDULE II VALUATION AND QUALIFYING ACCOUNTS 					 (Dollars in thousands) 	 														 Balance at Charged to Balance For the Year Ended Beginning Costs and at End June 30, 1996: of Year Expenses Deductions of Year - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allowance for sales returns, allowances and discounts $ 2,497 $ 17,324 $ 16,686 $ 3,135 Allowance for doubtful accounts 119 101 --- 220 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 2,616 $ 17,425 $ 16,686 $ 3,355 =================================================================================== 														 				 Balance at Charged to Balance For the Year Ended Beginning Costs and at End June 30, 1995: of Year Expenses Deductions of Year - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allowance for sales returns, allowances and discounts $ 1,365 $ 12,874 $ 11,742 $ 2,497 Allowance for doubtful accounts 187 (68) --- 119 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 1,552 $ 12,806 $ 11,742 $ 2,616 =================================================================================== 				 Balance at Charged to Balance For the Year Ended Beginning Costs and at End June 30, 1994: of Year Expenses Deductions of Year - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allowance for sales returns, allowances and discounts $ 2,195 $ 9,016 $ 9,846 $ 1,365 Allowance for doubtful accounts 254 (67) --- 187 - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TOTAL $ 2,449 $ 8,949 $ 9,846 $ 1,552 =================================================================================== 47 ITEM 9.

The 1994 Plan provides for the granting of up to 1,000,000 options which are intended to qualify either as incentive stock options ("Incentive Stock Options") within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or as options which are not intended to meet the requirements of such section ("Nonstatutory Stock Options"). The total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1994 Plan is 1,000,000. Options to purchase shares may be granted under the 1994 Plan to persons who, in the case of Incentive Stock Options, are employees (including officers) of the Company, or, in the case of Nonstatutory Stock Options, are employees (including officers) or non-employee directors of the Company. The 1994 Plan is administered by a committee appointed by the Board of Directors, which has discretionary authority, subject to certain restrictions, to determine the number of shares issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options and Nonstatutory Stock Options and the individuals to whom, the time at which, and the exercise price for which options will be granted. The exercise price of all Incentive Stock Options granted under the 1994 Plan must be at least equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant or, in the case of Incentive Stock Options granted to the holder of more than ten percent of the Company's Common Stock, at least 110% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant. The maximum exercise period for which Incentive Stock Options may be granted is ten years from the date of grant (five years in the case of an individual owning more than 10% of the Company's Common Stock). The aggregated fair market value (determined at the date of the option grant) of shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the holder of the options during any calendar year shall not exceed $100. 52 The following table sets forth certain information concerning grants of stock options to the executive officers of the Company under the 1994 Plan during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996.

The stated intent of the 1991 Plan is to induce persons of outstanding ability and potential to join and remain with the Company and to enable key employees, who make substantial contribution to the Company, to acquire proprietary equity interests in the Company. The Board of Directors chooses the Committee, whose members are ineligible to receive stock awards under the 1991 Plan, to administer the Plan. The Committee determines the employees to whom awards of Common Stock will be granted and the amount, size and terms of each such award. 54 A total of 465,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company were reserved for issuance under the 1991 Plan, of which aggregate grants of 275,000 and 50,000 were awarded in November 1991 and March 1993, respectively, at the respective values of $8.125 and $13.8125, being the respective market value thereof on the date of the grant. During the year ended June 30, 1994, due to two resignations, grants totaling 27,500 shares were terminated and 82,250 shares were issued. During the year ended June 30, 1995, due to two resignations, 10,500 shares were terminated and 71,125 shares were issued. During the year ended June 30, 1996, due to eight terminations, grants totaling 47,000 shares were terminated and 44,625 shares were issued. Pension Plan The Company maintains a defined benefit pension plan, fully paid for by the Company, for the benefit of eligible employees. All non-union employees become eligible for participation in the pension plan on January 1 or July 1, as applicable, following completion of one year of service. 161 persons were participants in the pension plan as of June 30, 1996. A participant in the Company's pension plan will receive retirement income based on .91% of his final average annual compensation, defined in the pension plan as including salary, bonuses, overtime and commissions, plus .52% of his final average annual compensation in excess of Social Security covered compensation, multiplied by years of credited service up to 35 years. Years of service for benefit accrual purposes are only after January 1, 1976. Final average compensation is defined in the pension plan as the average of a participant's total compensation received during the highest paid five consecutive plan years during the last 10 consecutive plan years immediately prior to retirement. A participant is 100% vested in his accrued pension benefit after five years of service as defined in the plan. The vested benefit of many participants employed prior to October 31, 1989, are provided through both the Purepac pension plan and the Solvay Group Pension Plan, the predecessor Company's plan. 55 The following table indicates the estimated annual plan benefits payable upon retirement as of June 30, 1996 at age sixty-five after fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty and thirty-five years of credited service to the Company: PENSION PLAN TABLE (Dollars in thousands) Average Compensation Annual Benefit Based on Years of Service - ------------------ ---------------------------------------- 15 20 25 30 35 -- -- -- -- -- $ 125,000 ........ $25 $33 $41 $50 $ 58 150,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 175,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 200,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 225,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 250,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 300,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 350,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 400,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 450,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 500,000 ........ 30 40 50 60 70 At June 30, 1996, the credited years of service under the pension plan for Mr. Moldin was one. Mr. Craker and Dr. Boehm are not participants in the pension plan. Savings Plan The Company has a savings plan, implemented as of January 1, 1990, covering all non-union employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Under the savings plan, employees may defer up to 15% of their salary, to a maximum of $9 per annum. The Company makes an annual matching contribution equal to 50% of an employee's contribution, not exceeding 6% of the employee's salary. Matching contributions are vested at the rate of 20% per annum commencing upon one year's participation in the savings plan. All vested amounts in a participant's account, including earnings, may be distributed only following hardship, retirement, death, permanent or total disability or termination of employment. For the three year period ended June 30, 1996, the Company had contributed an aggregate of $650,000 to the savings plan (net of forfeitures of non-vested amounts), for the respective accounts of 193 participants. Of such $650,000, an aggregate of $11 has been credited to the accounts of all current executive officers as a group, being $ -0-, $11, and $ -0- for the respective accounts of Mr. Moldin, Dr. Boehm and Mr. Craker. 56 COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION General Compensation Policies The Company's Compensation Committee (the "Committee") is responsible for establishing, approving and administering the policies which govern annual executive salary levels, increases/adjustments, incentive payments, the award of stock grants under the Company's 1991 Restrictive Stock Incentive Plan and the award of stock options under the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan. During the year ended June 30, 1996 and until the death of David Beretta on September 16, 1996, the Committee was composed of three members, all of whom were non-employee directors. See "Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation." It is anticipated that the Board of Directors will appoint a replacement member for Mr. Beretta in the near future. In setting salary levels, providing incentives and granting stock and option incentives, the objectives of the Committee are to encourage profitable growth of the Company in a mutuality of interest between the Company's executives and stockholders and to balance competitive pay with the Company's overall performance. Specifically, the Committee attempts to provide levels of compensation to the President/CEO and the Company's other executive officers which reflect the contribution of such executives to the Company's growth in sales, earnings and market share, the development of stockholder value as reflected in the increase in the Company's stock price and the implementation of corporate strategies consistent with the growth of the Company. Growth in earnings is a significant factor in determining compensation. In addition, contribution to the development of new product opportunities, the progress of bioavailability and other studies and of development activities required to bring products to market and the successful marketing of the Company's primary products are evaluated in setting compensation policy. As well, to assure the Company's ability to attract, motivate and retain talented executives, the Committee attempts to keep the Company's levels of executive compensation competitive with that of other health care companies of comparable size and performance. President/CEO and Executive Officers Compensation The Company's executive compensation program consists of three key components: base salary, a cash incentive scheme and long term incentives through the awards of restricted stock grants and stock options. 57 The incentive payments have two performance components, each with a 50% weighting: (a) a financial budget achievement target based on net profit before taxes and (b) achievement of specific job-related objectives. The underlying principle for the design and implementation of the Company's incentive scheme is based on the concept that the Company commit in advance to predetermined annual levels of performance. Actual results achieved are measured against that commitment. The Company's long term incentives to date have been in the form of restricted stock and stock option grants. The object of this program has been to advance the longer term interest of the Company and its stockholders. Equity compensation is an important element of the perfor- mance-based compensation of the executive officers and helps to ensure that management's interests remain closely aligned with those of the Company's stockholders. The Committee is of the view that Restricted stock awards and stock option grants provide the Company's key employees an opportunity for increased equity ownership and help to create an incentive to remain with the Company for the long term, since the grants vest over a four to six year period. During the approximate five month period from January to July 17, 1995 Michael R.D. Ashton held the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. His yearly salary as President of Faulding Services Inc. had already been established, was not altered upon his acceptance of additional responsibilities as President and CEO of the Company and was paid by Faulding Services Inc. On July 17, 1995, the Company appointed Richard F. Moldin as its President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Moldin's initial compensation package reflected the Company's determination to recruit experienced executive officers who had considerable experience in the pharmaceutical industry by offering them compensation cometitive with that of health care companies of comparable size and performance. He received an initial base salary of $285,000 and a grant of 150,000 stock options under the 1994 Stock Option Plan. Mr. Moldin received an additional grant of 50,000 stock options in April, 1996 and a cash incentive award of $105,000 in September, 1996. His additional compensation reflected the Committee's assessment of Mr. Moldin's leadership in strengthening the position of the Company, his efforts in broadening the Company's base of operations to include the generic injectable business and his leadership contribution in implementing the Company's programs during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. 58 $1,000,000 Limit On Tax Deductible Compensation As part of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act passed by Congress in 1993, a new limit has been created for the deductibility of compensation paid to certain officers. These officers are the Chief Executive Officer and the next four most highly compensated officers in office at the end of the year. Compensation paid to these officers in excess of $1,000,000, that is not performance-based, cannot be claimed by the Company as a tax deduction.

During the years ended June 30, 1996, 1995, and 1994, the Company was reimbursed $466, $1,919 and $486, respectively, by Faulding for materials and services related to research and development projects and $200 during the year ended June 30, 1994 for the sale to Faulding of the Company s Poroplastic(R) technology.

Amortization of this technology will commence in fiscal 1997. 62 Amounts due from (due to) affiliated companies are payable on demand and were as follows as of: June 30, 1996 June 30, 1995 ------------- ------------- Faulding $ (1,881) $ 1,843 Holdings --- 10 Faulding Services Inc. 1,034 (37) ----------- ------------- $ (847) $ 1,816 =========== ============= Purepac entered into an agreement with Faulding as of December 5, 1992, pursuant to which Purepac agreed to provide services to Faulding for the tableting of pellets and micropellets on a time and materials basis. During the year ended June 30, 1996, no related services were provided by Purepac to Faulding. In addition, Purepac and Faulding entered into a three-year agreement, also dated as of December 5, 1992, which is automatically renewable for successive two-year periods, pursuant to which Faulding granted Purepac a non-exclusive license to import, distribute and market an erythromycin oral product in the United States. On January 1, 1993, Purepac and Faulding Services Inc. entered into a consulting agreement, which terminated on December 31, 1995, pursuant to which Purepac retained Faulding Services Inc. to serve as a business development consultant and advisor on a non-exclusive basis. On August 1, 1993, Purepac entered into a ten-year agreement with Faulding Services Inc. to manufacture KADIAN (TM) utilizing Faulding technology, processes and manufacturing methods licensed to Faulding Services Inc. Faulding Services Inc., at its sole cost, has sought all necessary approvals and/or registrations from the appropriate regulatory authority to enable the sale of the product, which was approved by the FDA on July 3, 1996. Under that agreement, Purepac had commenced the manufacturing of KADIAN (TM) based on orders received from Faulding Services Inc. and the initial income from this contract was recorded in the quarter ending June 30, 1996. The parties amended this agreement in December 1994 to resolve certain inconsistencies between this agreement and an agreement with an unrelated third party, to distribute the product manufactured by Purepac. On June 27, 1995 the Company and Faulding Services Inc. entered into a Services Agreement pursuant to which Purepac agreed to provide certain services on Faulding Services Inc.'s behalf that Faulding Services Inc. had agreed to provide under the agreement with the third party. 63 On March 15, 1995, Purepac and Faulding entered into a three-year non- exclusive license agreement for Purepac to import and distribute doxycycline, a delayed-release product, in the United States in exchange for certain payments to Faulding for its supply of the product to Purepac. Purepac and Faulding entered into two agreements as of June 26, 1995 for two products that had been under ongoing development review for several years. One is a licensing agreement pursuant to which Faulding granted to Purepac an exclusive ten-year license to utilize certain technology to complete the development of a modified-release product and manufacture and sell the product in the United States. Relating to the product development, Purepac paid to Faulding most of the technology licensing fees prior to June 30, 1994 with the balance paid during the year ended June 30, 1996, all expensed as research and development costs. In addition, Purepac will be obligated to pay royalties related to net sales of the product. As of June 30, 1996, development activity regarding this agreement has not continued. The second agreement is a ten-year Co-development, Supply and Licensing Agreement whereby Faulding will develop and deliver a certain component pellet of a modified-release product for Purepac s use in developing, manufacturing and distributing such product in the United States. Faulding will supply Purepac with pellets at a price set forth in the agreement. If the parties later concur that Purepac will manufacture the pellets, Faulding will grant Purepac an exclusive license to the pellet technology for the remainder of the term of the agreement in consideration of a technology transfer fee of $250 and ongoing royalty payments. As of June 30, 1996, development activity regarding this agreement has not continued. On January 23, 1996, FPC and Faulding entered into a Supply Agreement for injectable products developed and manufactured by Faulding for sale in the United States. Supply of six anti-cancer products, under this agreement, commenced in January 1996. ANDA submissions for additional products covered by this agreement have been filed with the FDA. Additional products are under development by Faulding. On January 23, 1996, a Licensing and Supply Agreement was signed between FMD and Faulding for the medical device products developed by FMD. Though such products have not yet been launched in the United States, products utilizing these technologies have received regulatory approval in some other markets. The Company believes that the terms of the foregoing agreements are at least as favorable as those it could have obtained in comparable nonaffiliated third party transactions. 64 PART IV ITEM 14.
