                                Explanatory Note

      This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this Amendment)  amends the Company's
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 (the Original
Filing),  and is being filed to include  direct  reimbursements  received by the
Company from its clients for certain  costs  incurred as part of revenue with an
identical  increase  to cost of goods and  services,  rather  than being  netted
against  cost of goods and  services.  Revenue and cost of goods and services is
being  increased by $4.3  million and $5.6 million for the quarters  ended March
31, 2004 and 2003, respectively.  Subsequent to the issuance of its consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 and the quarters ended
March 31, 2004 and June 30, 2004, the Company determined that its accounting for
reimbursable  costs  should be  restated  to  reclassify  these costs as revenue
rather  than a  reduction  of cost of goods  and  services  in  accordance  with
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 01-14, "INCOME STATEMENT  CHARACTERIZATION
OF REIMBURSEMENTS RECEIVED FOR 'OUT-OF-POCKET' EXPENSES INCURRED."

      A description of these  adjustments  and a summary showing their effect on
the restated consolidated statements of operations is provided in Note 1B to the
unaudited  interim  consolidated  financial  statements.  This  Amendment has no
effect on the Company's gross profit, operating income, net income, earnings per
share, cash flows, liquidity or financial condition as presented in the Original
Filing.  Additionally,  this Amendment has no effect on the consolidated balance
sheets,  consolidated  statements  of cash flows or  consolidated  statements of
stockholders' equity as presented in the Original Filing.

      The Company is filing this report in order to amend certain information in
Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I; to reflect the restatement of the March 31, 2004 and
2003 unaudited  interim  consolidated  statements of operations and the notes to
the unaudited interim  consolidated  financial statements attached hereto solely
to the extent  necessary to reflect the adjustments  described  herein;  and the
principal  executive  officer and  principal  financial  officer  certifications
pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the  Sarbanes-Oxley  Act of 2002. Except for
the foregoing  items, no other  information in the Original Filing is revised by
this Amendment. Items not being amended are presented for the convenience of the
reader  only.  This  report  continues  to be  presented  as of the  date of the
Original  Filing,  and the Company has not updated the disclosure in this report
to a later date.  Therefore,  this Amendment  should be read together with other
documents that the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing. Information in such reports and
documents  updates  and  supersedes  certain   information   contained  in  this
Amendment.  The filing of this  Amendment  shall not be deemed an admission that
the Original Filing, when made, included any known, untrue statement of material
fact,  or  knowingly  omitted  to  state a  material  fact  necessary  to make a
statement not misleading.

      The Company is not amending any reports affected by the restatement  prior
to the Original Filing;  therefore,  the consolidated  financial  statements and
related  financial  information  included  in such  reports  should no longer be
relied upon and are hereby superseded.

                      NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying  unaudited interim consolidated  financial statements and
related  notes should be read in  conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial
statements  of PDI,  Inc.  and its  subsidiaries  (the  "Company"  or "PDI") and
related notes as included in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the
year  ended  December  31,  2003 as  filed  with  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission.  The  unaudited  interim  consolidated  financial  statements of the
Company have been  prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles (GAAP) for interim  financial  reporting and the instructions to Form
10-Q/A and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the  information  and  footnotes   required  by  GAAP  for  complete   financial
statements.  The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all
adjustments  (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the judgment
of  management,  are  necessary  for  a  fair  presentation  of  such  financial
statements.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2004 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December  31, 2004.  Certain  prior period  amounts  have been  reclassified  to
conform with the current presentation with no effect on financial position,  net
income or cash flows.

1B.   RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

      The Company has  restated its  previously  issued  consolidated  financial
statements for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 (the previously issued
financial  statements) to apply the provisions of EITF 01-14,  "Income Statement
Characterization  of  Reimbursement   Received  for   'Out-of-Pocket'   Expenses
Incurred."  (EITF 01-14) In  September  2004,  the Company  became aware that it
should  have  been  applying  EITF  01-14  to the  previously  issued  financial
statements. In accordance with EITF 01-14, direct reimbursements received by the
Company from its clients for certain costs incurred should have been included as
part of revenue with an identical increase to cost of goods and services, rather
than being netted against cost of goods and services.  Revenue and cost of goods
and services in the previously  issued  financial  statements  were increased by
$4.3 million and $5.6  million for the  quarters  ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.  EITF 01-14,  which was issued in late 2001,  was  applicable  for
years  beginning in 2002,  and also  required  reclassification  of all previous
periods for comparative purposes.

      This  restatement  does  not  affect  previously  reported  gross  profit,
operating  income,  net income,  earnings  per share,  cash flows,  liquidity or
financial  condition.  Additionally,  there  is no  effect  on the  consolidated
balance sheets, consolidated statements of cash flows or consolidated statements
of  stockholders'  equity for the  previously  issued  financial  statements.  A
summary of the effects of the  restatement  to  reclassify  these  amounts is as
follows:

2.    REVENUE RECOGNITION

      The  paragraphs  that  follow  describe  the  guidelines  that the Company
adheres to in accordance  with GAAP when  recognizing  revenue and cost of goods
and services in financial  statements.  In accordance with GAAP, service revenue
and product revenue and their respective direct costs have been shown separately
on the consolidated statements of operations.

      Historically, the Company has derived a significant portion of its service
revenue  from a limited  number of  clients.  Concentration  of  business in the
pharmaceutical  services  industry  is  common  and the  industry  continues  to
consolidate.  As a result,  the  Company  is likely to  continue  to  experience
significant client  concentration in future periods.  For the three months ended
March  31,  2004  and  2003,  the  Company's  three  and  two  largest  clients,
respectively,  who  each  individually  represented  10% or more of our  service
revenue,  accounted for  approximately  78.6%, and 69.0%,  respectively,  of the
Company's service revenue.

      Service revenue and program expenses
      ------------------------------------

      Service  revenue  is earned  primarily  by  performing  product  detailing
programs and other marketing and promotional  services under contracts.  Revenue
is recognized as the services are performed and the right to receive payment for
the services is assured.  Revenue is recognized  net of any potential  penalties
until the  performance  criteria  relating to the penalties  have been achieved.
Performance  incentives,  as well as  termination  payments,  are  recognized as
revenue in the period  earned and when payment of the bonus,  incentive or other
payment is assured.  Under  performance  based contracts,  revenue is recognized
when the performance based parameters are achieved.

      Program expenses consist  primarily of the costs associated with executing
product  detailing  programs,  performance  based  contracts  or other sales and
marketing  services  identified  in  the  contract.   Program  expenses  include
personnel costs and other costs associated with executing a product detailing or
other  marketing or  promotional  program,  as well as the initial  direct costs
associated with staffing a product detailing  program.  Such costs include,  but
are not limited to, facility rental fees, honoraria and travel expenses,  sample
expenses and other promotional  expenses.  Personnel costs, which constitute the
largest portion of program  expenses,  include all labor related costs,  such as
salaries,   bonuses,   fringe   benefits   and  payroll   taxes  for  the  sales
representatives  and sales  managers  and  professional  staff who are  directly
responsible for executing a particular program. Initial direct program costs are
those costs  associated with  initiating a product  detailing  program,  such as
recruiting,   hiring,  and  training  the  sales  representatives  who  staff  a
particular  product  detailing  program.  All personnel costs and initial direct
program costs,  other than training costs,  are expensed as incurred for service
offerings. Product detailing,  marketing and promotional expenses related to the
detailing of products the Company  distributes are recorded as a selling expense
and are included in other selling,  general and  administrative  expenses in the
consolidated statements of operations.

      Reimbursable Out-of-Pocket Expenses
      -----------------------------------

      Reimbursable  out-of-pocket  expenses include those relating to travel and
out-of  pocket  expenses  and other  similar  costs,  for which the  Company  is
reimbursed at cost from its clients. In accordance with the requirements of EITF
01-14, it is required that  reimbursements  received for out-of-pocket  expenses
incurred be characterized as revenue and an identical amount be included as cost
of goods and services in the consolidated statements of operations.

      Training Costs
      --------------

      Training costs include the costs of training the sales representatives and
managers on a particular product detailing program so that they are qualified to
properly  perform  the  services  specified  in the  related  contract.  For all
contracts,  training costs are deferred and amortized on a  straight-line  basis
over the

                                       8

                                   (UNAUDITED)


shorter of the life of the contract to which they relate or 12 months. When the
Company receives a specific contract payment from a client upon commencement of
a product detailing program expressly to compensate the Company for recruiting,
hiring and training services associated with staffing that program, such payment
is deferred and recognized as revenue in the same period that the recruiting and
hiring expenses are incurred and amortization of the deferred training is
expensed. When the Company does not receive a specific contract payment for
training, all revenue is deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.

      Product revenue and cost of goods sold
      --------------------------------------

      Product  revenue is  recognized  when  products  are  shipped and title is
transferred  to the customer.  Product  revenue for the three months ended March
31, 2004 and 2003 was primarily from the sale of the Xylos wound care products.

      Cost of goods sold includes all expenses for product  distribution  costs,
acquisition and manufacturing costs of the product sold.


3.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

      As of March 31, 2004 the Company has two stock-based employee compensation
plans described more fully in Note 20 to the consolidated  financial  statements
included  in the  Company's  2003  Annual  Report on Form  10-K.  SFAS No.  123,
"ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION" allows companies a choice of measuring
employee stock-based  compensation expense based on either the fair value method
of accounting or the intrinsic value approach under the Accounting Pronouncement
Board  (APB)  Opinion  No. 25. The  Company  accounts  for these plans under the
recognition  and measurement  principles of APB Opinion No. 25,  "ACCOUNTING FOR
STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES,  AND RELATED  INTERPRETATIONS." No stock option-based
employee  compensation  cost is reflected in net income,  as all options granted
under  those  plans  had an  exercise  price  equal to the  market  value of the
underlying  common  stock  on the date of the  grant  except  for  approximately
$234,000  related to the  acceleration  of  unvested  stock  options for several
employees terminated during the year. Certain employees have received restricted
common stock, the amortization of which is reflected in net income.  As required
by SFAS No. 148,  "ACCOUNTING  FOR  STOCK-BASED  COMPENSATION  - TRANSITION  AND
DISCLOSURE  - AN  AMENDMENT  OF SFAS NO.  123",  the  following  table shows the
estimated  effect on  earnings  and per share data as if the Company had applied
the fair value  recognition  provisions of SFAS No. 123 to stock-based  employee
compensation.

      Compensation  cost  for  the  determination  of pro  forma  net  loss - as
adjusted and related per share  amounts were  estimated  using the Black Scholes
option pricing  model,  with the following  assumptions:  (i) risk free interest
rate of 2.80% and 2.93% at March 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively;  (ii) expected
life of five  years  for the  quarters  ended  March 31,  2004 and  2003;  (iii)
expected dividends - $0 for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003; and (iv)
volatility of 100% for the quarters  ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. The weighted
average fair value of options  granted  during the quarters ended March 31, 2004
and 2003 was $18.62 and $6.66, respectively.

      In March 2003, the Company  initiated an option exchange  program pursuant
to  which  eligible   employees,   which  excluded  certain  members  of  senior
management,  were  offered an  opportunity  to exchange an  aggregate of 357,885
outstanding  stock options with  exercise  prices of $30.00 and above for either
cash or shares of restricted stock, depending upon the number of options held by
an  eligible  employee.  The offer  exchange  period  expired  on May 12,  2003.
Approximately  310,403 shares of common stock  underlying  eligible options were
tendered  by  eligible  employees  and  accepted  by the  Company.  This  number
represents  approximately  87% of the total  shares of common  stock  underlying
eligible options. A total of approximately 120 eligible  participants elected to
exchange an  aggregate  of  approximately  59,870  shares of common  stock under
eligible  options and received  cash in the  aggregate  amount of  approximately
$67,000  (which  amount  includes  applicable  withholding  taxes).  A total  of
approximately  145  eligible  participants  elected to exchange an  aggregate of
approximately  250,533  shares of common stock  underlying  eligible  options in
exchange for an aggregate of  approximately  49,850 shares of restricted  stock.
All tendered options were canceled and became eligible for re-issuance under the
Company's  option plans.  The  restricted  stock is subject to three-year  cliff
vesting and is subject to forfeiture upon  termination of employment  other than
in the event of the recipient's death or disability.

      Approximately  47,483  options,   which  were  offered  to,  but  did  not
participate in, the option exchange program, are subject to variable accounting.
As such, the Company may record compensation  expense if the market price of the
Company's  common stock exceeds the exercise price of the  non-tendered  options

until these options are  terminated,  exercised or forfeited.  The  non-tendered
options have exercise  prices ranging from $59.50 to $80.00 and a remaining life
of 6.5 to 6.8 years.


4.    CEFTIN CONTRACT TERMINATION

      In October  2000,  the  Company  entered  into an  agreement  (the  Ceftin
Agreement) with  GlaxoSmithKline  (GSK) for the exclusive U.S. sales,  marketing
and distribution rights for Ceftin(R) Tablets and Ceftin(R) for Oral Suspension,
two dosage forms of a cephalosporin  antibiotic,  which agreement was terminated
in February 2002 by mutual agreement of the parties.  The Ceftin Agreement had a
five-year  term but was  cancelable  by either party  without cause on 120 days'
notice.  From October 2000 through February 2002, the Company marketed Ceftin to
physicians  and sold the  products  primarily to  wholesale  drug  distributors,
retail chains and managed care providers.

      On August 21, 2001,  the U.S.  Court of Appeals  overturned a  preliminary
injunction  granted by the New Jersey District Court to GSK, which  subsequently
allowed  for the  entry of a  generic  competitor  to  Ceftin  immediately  upon
approval by the FDA. The affected Ceftin patent had previously been scheduled to
run through July 2003. The generic  version of Ceftin was approved by the FDA in
February 2002 and it began to be manufactured in late March 2002. As a result of
this U.S. Court of Appeals decision and its impact on future sales, in the third
quarter  of 2001  the  Company  recorded  a charge  to cost of goods  sold and a
related reserve of $24.0 million  representing the anticipated future loss to be
incurred by the Company under the Ceftin Agreement as of September 30, 2001. The
recorded loss was  calculated as the excess of estimated  costs that the Company
was  contractually  obligated  to incur to complete  its  obligations  under the
Ceftin Agreement,  over the remaining estimated gross profits to be earned under
the Ceftin Agreement from selling the inventory. These costs primarily consisted
of amounts paid to GSK to reduce purchase commitments, estimated committed sales
force  expenses,  selling and marketing  costs through the effective date of the
termination,  distribution  costs, and fees to terminate existing  arrangements.
The  Ceftin  Agreement  was  terminated  by the  Company  and GSK under a mutual
termination  agreement  entered  into in December  2001.  GSK resumed  exclusive
rights to Ceftin  after the  effective  date of the  termination  of the  Ceftin
Agreement,  and the Company  believes that GSK currently  sells Ceftin under its
own label code.

      Pursuant  to the  termination  agreement,  the  Company  agreed to perform
marketing and  distribution  services through February 28, 2002. As is common in
the  pharmaceutical  industry,  customers who  purchased  the  Company's  Ceftin
product are permitted to return unused product, after approval from the Company,
up to six months before and one year after the expiration  date for the product,
but no later than  December 31, 2004.  The products sold by the Company prior to
the Ceftin Agreement termination date of February 28, 2002 have expiration dates
through June 2004. The Company also maintains  responsibility for processing and
payment of certain sales rebates through December 31, 2004. The Company's Ceftin
sales  aggregated  approximately  $628  million  during  the term of the  Ceftin
Agreement.

      As of December 31, 2002, the Company had accrued reserves of approximately
$16.5 million related to Ceftin sales. Of this accrual, $11.0 million related to
return  reserves  and $5.5  million  related to sales  rebates  accruals.  On an
ongoing  basis,  the  Company  assesses  its  reserve  for  product  returns by:
analyzing historical sales and return patterns; monitoring prescription data for
branded  Ceftin;   monitoring  inventory  withdrawals  by  the  wholesalers  and
retailers for branded Ceftin;  inquiring  about  inventory  levels and potential
product  returns with the wholesaler  companies;  and estimating  demand for the
product.  During the third  quarter of 2003,  the  Company  made a $5.5  million
payment  to  settle  its  estimated  remaining  sales  rebate  liabilities,  and
concluded based on its returns  reserve review process,  which included a review
of  prescription  and withdrawal  data for branded Ceftin as well as information
communicated to the Company by the wholesalers, that the remaining $11.0 million
reserve for returns was adequate as of September 30, 2003.

                                   (UNAUDITED)


      The Company has since  determined,  based  primarily upon new  information
obtained from its  wholesalers as part of its ongoing  reserve  review  process,
that significant  amounts of inventory,  incremental to that previously reported
by the  wholesalers,  are being held by them in inventory.  The Company believes
that this resulted,  in part, from the sale by the wholesalers of Ceftin product
not supplied by the Company and acquired by the  wholesalers  subsequent  to the
mutual  termination of the Ceftin agreement.  Based upon this  information,  the
Company  increased its returns reserve $12.0 million to a total reserve of $22.8
million in the fourth quarter 2003.

      On March 31, 2004, the Company signed an agreement and waiver with a large
wholesaler by which the Company agreed to pay that wholesaler $10.0 million, and
purchase $2.5 million worth of services from that  wholesaler by March 31, 2006,
in exchange for that wholesaler waiving, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
all rights with respect to any additional returns of Ceftin to the Company.  The
Company made the payment on April 5, 2004.

      The  Company's  reserve of $22.5  million at March 31, 2004  reflects  the
Company's  estimated liability for all identified product that could potentially
be  returned  by all the  remaining  wholesalers  (including  the $12.5  million
settlement  discussed  above),  and an estimate of the Company's  liability with
respect to remaining,  but not yet identified,  product sold by the Company that
is still being held in the trade.

     The reserve has been calculated based on reimbursing the wholesalers at the
amount that they purchased the product from the Company.  In certain  instances,
the  wholesalers  have  requested  reimbursement  at an amount  higher  than the
original  purchase  price.  The difference is  approximately  $2.0 million.  The
reserve  as  recorded  by  the  Company  is  its  best  estimate  based  on  its
interpretation  of the  contracts.  The  Company  will  continue  to assess  the
adequacy of its reserves  until the Company's  obligations  for  processing  any
returned products ceases on December 31, 2004.


5.    OTHER PERFORMANCE BASED CONTRACTS

      In May  2001,  the  Company  entered  into a  copromotion  agreement  with
Novartis  Pharmaceuticals  Corporation  (Novartis) for the U.S. sales, marketing
and  promotion  rights for  Lotensin(R),  Lotensin  HCT(R) and  Lotrel(R).  That
agreement was scheduled to run through  December 31, 2003. On May 20, 2002, this
agreement was replaced by two separate agreements,  one for Lotensin and one for
Lotrel-Diovan through the addition of Diovan(R) and Diovan HCT(R). Both of these
agreements ended December 31, 2003;  however,  the  Lotrel-Diovan  agreement was
renewed on December  24, 2003 for an  additional  one year  period.  In February
2004,  the Company was  notified  by  Novartis  of its intent to  terminate  the
Lotrel-Diovan  contract,  without  cause,  effective  March 16,  2004 and,  as a
result,  $28.9 million of anticipated  revenue associated with the Lotrel-Diovan
contract in 2004 will not be  realized.  The Company was  compensated  under the
terms of the agreement  through the effective  termination date. Even though the
Lotensin  agreement  ended  December 31, 2003,  the Company is still entitled to
receive royalty payments on the sales of Lotensin through December 31, 2004. The
royalties  earned under this  arrangement  totaled $2.3 million during the first
quarter of 2004; the royalties earned during the remaining  quarters of 2004 are
expected  to  diminish   substantially  because  the  product  lost  its  patent
protection in February 2004.

      In  October  2002,  the  Company  entered  into an  agreement  with  Xylos
Corporation (Xylos) for the exclusive U.S. commercialization rights to the Xylos
XCell(TM)  Cellulose  Wound Dressing  (XCell) wound care  products.  The Company
began  selling  the  Xylos  products  in  January  2003;  however,   sales  were
significantly  slower  than  anticipated  and actual 2003 sales did not meet the
Company's  forecasts.  The Company did have the right to terminate the agreement
with 135 days' notice to Xylos,  beginning January 1, 2004. Based on these sales
results, the Company concluded that sales of XCell were not sufficient enough to
sustain  the  Company's  continued  role as  commercialization  partner  for the
product and therefore, on January 2, 2004, the Company exercised its contractual
right to terminate  the  agreement on 135 days' notice to Xylos.  The Company is
still accepting  orders for XCell products until May 16, 2004

when the agreement will terminate; however, the Company's promotional activities
in support of the brand concluded in January 2004. The Company recorded a
reserve for potential excess inventory during 2003 of approximately $835,000. As
discussed in Note 6, the Company continues to have an investment in Xylos. In
addition, in February 2004, the Company entered into a term loan agreement with
Xylos, pursuant to which it has made loans to Xylos in an aggregate amount of
$500,000; $375,000 was disbursed in the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and the
remaining $125,000 was disbursed in April 2004. Pursuant to the terms of the
agreement, the loans are due to be repaid on June 30, 2005.

      On December 31, 2002, the Company entered into a licensing  agreement with
Cellegy Pharmaceuticals,  Inc. (Cellegy) for the exclusive North American rights
for Fortigel(TM), a testosterone gel product. The agreement is in effect for the
commercial life of the product.  Cellegy  submitted a New Drug Application (NDA)
for the hypogonadism  indication to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration  (FDA)
in June 2002. In July 2003, Cellegy received a letter from the FDA rejecting its
NDA for Fortigel.  Cellegy has told the Company that it is in  discussions  with
the  FDA  to  determine  the  appropriate   course  of  action  needed  to  meet
deficiencies cited by the FDA in its determination.  Since the Company filed the
lawsuit,  Cellegy is no longer in regular  contact  with the  Company  regarding
Fortigel.  Thus,  for example,  the Company is unaware of the precise FDA status
regarding  Fortigel (as of March 31, 2004, it had not been approved) and the FDA
continued  to  express  concern  about  the  high  supraphysiologic  Cmax  serum
testosterone  levels  achieved in subjects of Fortigel  testing.  The Company is
also unaware of what steps Cellegy is taking to develop Fortigel,  to obtain FDA
approval for Fortigel,  and/or to arrange for a party to  manufacture  Fortigel.
The Company has  requested  this  information  from Cellegy but has not received
full and  complete  responses  from  Cellegy.  Accordingly,  the Company may not
possess the most current and reliable information  concerning the current status
of, or future  prospects  relating to Fortigel.  The Company cannot predict with
any certainty  whether the FDA will ultimately  approve Fortigel for sale in the
U.S. Under the terms of the agreement,  the Company paid Cellegy a $15.0 million
initial licensing fee on December 31, 2002. This nonrefundable  payment was made
prior to FDA  approval  and,  since  there is no  alternative  future use of the
licensed  rights,  the $15.0  million  payment  was  expensed  by the Company in
December  2002,  when  incurred.  This  amount was  recorded  in other  selling,
general,  and  administrative  expenses in the  December  31, 2002  consolidated
statements of operations.  Pursuant to the terms of the licensing agreement, the
Company will be required to pay Cellegy a $10.0 million  incremental license fee
milestone payment upon Fortigel's  receipt of all approvals  required by the FDA
(if such approvals are obtained) to promote,  sell and distribute the product in
the U.S. This incremental  milestone license fee, if incurred,  will be recorded
as an  intangible  asset and amortized  over its estimated  useful life, as then
determined,  which is not expected to exceed the life of the patent. The Company
believes  that  it  will  not be  required  to pay  Cellegy  the  $10.0  million
incremental  license fee  milestone  payment in 2004,  and it is unclear at this
point when or if  Cellegy  will get  Fortigel  approved  by the FDA which  would
trigger  the  Company's  obligation  to pay $10.0  million to  Cellegy.  Royalty
payments to Cellegy over the term of the  commercial  life of the product  would
range from 20% to 30% of net sales.

      As discussed in Note 12, in May 2003,  the Company  settled a lawsuit with
Auxilium Pharmaceuticals,  Inc. which sought to enjoin its performance under the
Cellegy agreement.  Additionally,  the Company filed a complaint against Cellegy
in December 2003, that alleges,  among other things,  that Cellegy  fraudulently
induced the Company to enter into the licensing agreement,  and seeks the return
of the $15.0 million initial  licensing fee, plus  additional  damages caused by
Cellegy's conduct.


6.    OTHER INVESTMENTS

      In October 2002, the Company  acquired $1.0 million of preferred  stock of
Xylos.  The Company  recorded its  investment in Xylos under the cost method and
its ownership interest in Xylos is less than five percent.  As discussed in Note
5, the Company  served in 2003 as the exclusive  distributor  of the Xylos XCell
product line, but on January 2, 2004, the Company  terminated  that  arrangement
effective May 16, 2004. In addition,  in February 2004, the Company entered into
a term loan agreement  with Xylos,  pursuant to which it has made loans to Xylos
in an aggregate amount of $500,000;  $375,000 was disbursed

                                       13

in the quarter ended March 31, 2004 and the remaining $125,000 was disbursed in
April 2004. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the loans are due to be
repaid on June 30, 2005. Although Xylos recognized operating losses in 2003 and
the first quarter of 2004, the Company continues to believe that, based on
current prospects and activities at Xylos, its investment in Xylos is not
impaired and the amounts loaned are recoverable as of March 31, 2004. However,
if Xylos continues to experience losses and is not able to generate sufficient
cash flows through financing, the Company may not recover its loans and its
investment may become impaired.


7.    INVENTORY

      At March 31, 2004 the Company's  finished goods inventory  relating to the
XCell wound care  products  for which the company is still  accepting  orders in
connection  with the Xylos agreement  discussed in Note 5 is fully reserved.  At
December  31,  2003,  the Company had  approximately  $43,000 in finished  goods
inventory, net of reserves.

      In the third  quarter  of 2003,  as a result of the  continued  lower than
anticipated  Xylos product sales,  management  recorded a reserve of $835,000 to
reduce the value of the XCell  inventory to its estimated net realizable  value.
At March 31,  2004 the balance of the reserve  was  approximately  $761,000.  As
discussed in Note 5, on January 2, 2004 the Company  gave notice of  termination
of its  agreement  with  Xylos,  effective  May 16,  2004,  and  will  therefore
discontinue  processing  orders for the XCell products after the effective date.
The Company  anticipates  that any future  sales of the XCell  products  will be
negligible and accordingly has fully reserved for the remaining  inventory as of
March 31, 2004.


8.    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

      In January 2003, the FASB issued  Interpretation No. 46, "CONSOLIDATION OF
VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES" (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires a variable interest entity
(VIE) to be consolidated by a company,  if that company is subject to a majority
of the risk of loss from the VIE's  activities or entitled to receive a majority
of the entity's  residual  returns or both. In December  2003, the FASB issued a
revision to the FIN 46 (FIN46R)  which  partially  delayed the effective date of
the interpretation to March 31, 2004 and added additional scope exceptions.  The
adoption  of FIN46 and FIN46R did not have a  material  impact on the  Company's
business, financial position or results of operations.

      In December  2003,  the Staff of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 (SAB 104), "REVENUE RECOGNITION," which
supercedes SAB 101,  "REVENUE  RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL  STATEMENTS."  SAB 104's
primary purpose is to rescind  accounting  guidance contained in SAB 101 related
to multiple element revenue arrangements, superceded as a result of the issuance
of EITF 00-21, "ACCOUNTING FOR REVENUE ARRANGEMENTS WITH MULTIPLE DELIVERABLES."
Additionally,  SAB 104  rescinds  the SEC's  "REVENUE  RECOGNITION  IN FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS" (the FAQ) issued with SAB 101
that had been  codified  in SEC Topic 13,  "REVENUE  RECOGNITION."  The  revenue
recognition  principles  provided  for in both  SAB 101 and  EITF  00-21  remain
largely unchanged.  As a result, the adoption of SAB 104 is not expected to have
a material impact on the Company's  business,  financial position and results of
operations.


9.    HISTORICAL AND PRO FORMA BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME PER SHARE

      Historical  and pro  forma  basic  and  diluted  net  income  per share is

      Outstanding options at March 31, 2004 to purchase 380,673 shares of common
stock with  exercise  prices  ranging from $27.00 to $93.75 were not included in
the computation of historical and pro forma diluted net income per share because
to do so would have been antidilutive.  Outstanding options at March 31, 2003 to
purchase  1,383,108  shares of common stock with  exercise  prices  ranging from
$14.16 to $98.70 were not  included in the  computation  of  historical  and pro
forma   diluted  net  income  per  share  because  to  do  so  would  have  been
antidilutive.


10.   SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

      At March 31, 2004,  short-term  investments were $44.2 million,  including
approximately  $1.5 million of  investments  classified  as  available  for sale
securities.  At March  31,  2003,  short-term  investments  were  $4.1  million,
including  approximately $1.1 million of investments classified as available for
sale securities.  The unrealized after-tax gain/(loss) on the available for sale
securities  is  included  as a separate  component  of  stockholders'  equity as
accumulated other  comprehensive  income.  All other short-term  investments are
stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

12.   COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      Due to the nature of the business in which the Company is engaged, such as
product  detailing and distribution of products,  it could be exposed to certain
risks. Such risks include,  among others,  risk of liability for personal injury
or death to persons using products the Company  promotes or  distributes.  There

                                   (UNAUDITED)


can be no assurance that substantial claims or liabilities will not arise in the
future  because of the nature of the Company's  business  activities  and recent
increases in litigation related to healthcare products including pharmaceuticals
increases this risk. The Company seeks to reduce its potential  liability  under
its service  agreements  through  measures such as  contractual  indemnification
provisions with clients (the scope of which may vary from client to client,  and
the  performances  of which are not secured) and  insurance.  The Company could,
however,  also be held  liable for  errors and  omissions  of its  employees  in
connection  with the  services  it  performs  that are  outside the scope of any
indemnity  or  insurance  policy.  The  Company  could be  materially  adversely
affected if it was required to pay damages or incur  defense costs in connection
with a claim that is outside the scope of an indemnification  agreement;  if the
indemnity,  although applicable,  is not performed in accordance with its terms;
or if the  Company's  liability  exceeds the amount of  applicable  insurance or
indemnity.

SECURITIES LITIGATION

      In January and February 2002, the Company, its chief executive officer and
its chief financial officer were served with three complaints that were filed in
the  United  States  District  Court for the  District  of New  Jersey  alleging
violations of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange  Act").  These
complaints  were brought as purported  shareholder  class actions under Sections
10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5  established  thereunder.  On
May 23, 2002,  the Court  consolidated  all three  lawsuits into a single action
entitled  In re PDI  Securities  Litigation,  Master  File No.  02-CV-0211,  and
appointed lead plaintiffs (Lead Plaintiffs) and Lead Plaintiffs'  counsel. On or
about December 13, 2002, Lead Plaintiffs filed a second consolidated and amended
complaint (Second  Consolidated and Amended  Complaint),  which superseded their
earlier complaints.

      The complaint names the Company, its chief executive officer and its chief
financial officer as defendants; purports to state claims against the Company on
behalf of all persons who purchased  the Company's  Common Stock between May 22,
2001 and August 12, 2002;  and seeks money  damages in  unspecified  amounts and
litigation  expenses including  attorneys' and experts' fees. The essence of the
allegations in the Second Consolidated and Amended Complaint is that the Company
intentionally  or recklessly  made false or  misleading  public  statements  and
omissions  concerning its financial  condition and prospects with respect to its
marketing of Ceftin in connection with the October 2000  distribution  agreement
with GSK, its marketing of Lotensin in connection with the May 2001 distribution
agreement  with  Novartis,  as well as its  marketing of Evista(R) in connection
with the October 2001 distribution agreement with Eli Lilly and Company.

      In  February  2003,  the  Company  filed a motion to  dismiss  the  Second
Consolidated  and  Amended  Complaint  under the Private  Securities  Litigation
Reform Act of 1995 and Rules 9(b) and  12(b)(6)  of the  Federal  Rules of Civil
Procedure.  That motion is fully  submitted to the court for its  decision.  The
Company believes that the allegations in this purported  securities class action
are without merit and intends to defend the action vigorously.

BAYER-BAYCOL LITIGATION

      The Company has been named as a defendant in numerous lawsuits,  including
two class action matters,  alleging claims arising from the use of Baycol(R),  a
prescription  cholesterol-lowering medication. Baycol was distributed,  promoted
and sold by Bayer Corporation  (Bayer) in the United States through early August
2001,  at which time Bayer  voluntarily  withdrew  Baycol from the United States
market.  Bayer  retained  certain  companies,  such as the  Company,  to provide
detailing  services on its behalf  pursuant to contract sales force  agreements.
The Company may be named in additional  similar  lawsuits.  To date, the Company
has defended these actions  vigorously  and has asserted a contractual  right of
indemnification  against  Bayer for all costs and  expenses  the Company  incurs
relating to these  proceedings.  In February  2003,  the Company  entered into a
joint defense and indemnification  agreement with Bayer, pursuant to which Bayer
has agreed to assume substantially all of the Company's defense costs in pending
and  prospective  proceedings  and to indemnify  the Company in these  lawsuits,
subject to certain limited

exceptions.  Further,  Bayer agreed to reimburse the Company for all  reasonable
costs and  expenses  incurred  to date in  defending  these  proceedings.  As of
February  20,  2004 Bayer has  reimbursed  the Company  for  approximately  $1.6
million in legal expenses,  of which approximately  $700,000 was received in the
quarter  ended  March 31, 2003 and was  reflected  as a credit  within  selling,
general and administrative expense. No amounts have been recorded in 2004.

AUXILIUM PHARMACEUTICALS LITIGATION

      On January 6, 2003,  the  Company  was named as a  defendant  in a lawsuit
filed by Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Auxilium), in the Pennsylvania Court of
Common  Pleas,  Montgomery  County.  Auxilium was seeking  monetary  damages and
injunctive relief,  including  preliminary  injunctive relief,  based on several
claims  related to the  Company's  alleged  breaches  of a contract  sales force
agreement  entered into by the parties on November 20, 2002, and claims that the
Company was  misappropriating  trade  secrets in  connection  with its exclusive
license agreement with Cellegy.

      On May 8, 2003,  the Company  entered into a settlement and mutual release
agreement  with Auxilium  (Settlement  Agreement),  by which the lawsuit and all
related  counter  claims were dropped  without any  admission of  wrongdoing  by
either party.  The settlement  terms included a cash payment which was paid upon
execution  of the  Settlement  Agreement  as well as  certain  other  additional
expenses.  The Company  recorded a $2.1 million  charge in the first  quarter of
2003  related to this  settlement.  Pursuant to the  Settlement  Agreement,  the
Company also agreed that it would (a) not sell, ship, distribute or transfer any
Fortigel product to any wholesalers,  chain drug stores, pharmacies or hospitals
prior to  November  1,  2003,  and (b) pay  Auxilium  an  additional  amount per
prescription to be determined based upon a specified  formula,  in the event any
prescriptions  were filled for Fortigel  prior to January 26, 2004. As discussed
in Note 5, in July 2003,  Cellegy  received a letter from the FDA  rejecting its
NDA for Fortigel.  The Company did not pay any additional  amount to Auxilium as
set forth in clause (b) above since  Fortigel  was not approved by the FDA prior
to  January  26,  2004.  The  Company  does not  believe  that the  terms of the
Settlement   Agreement   will   have  any   impact   on  the   success   of  its
commercialization of the product if, or when, the FDA approves it.

CELLEGY PHARMACEUTICALS LITIGATION

       On December 12, 2003,  the Company filed a complaint  against  Cellegy in
the U.S.  District  Court for the Southern  District of New York.  The complaint
alleges that Cellegy  fraudulently  induced the Company to enter into a December
2002 license agreement with Cellegy regarding  Fortigel  ("License  Agreement").
The complaint also alleges claims for  misrepresentation  and breach of contract
related to the License  Agreement.  In the complaint,  the Company seeks,  among
other  things,  rescission  of the  License  Agreement  and  return of the $15.0
million  initial  licensing  fee it paid  Cellegy.  After the Company filed this
lawsuit,  also on December  12,  2003,  Cellegy  filed a  complaint  against the
Company in the U.S.  District  Court for the  Northern  District of  California.
Cellegy's complaint seeks a declaration that Cellegy did not fraudulently induce
the Company to enter the License Agreement and that Cellegy has not breached its
obligations  under the License  Agreement.  By order dated April 23,  2004,  the
Company's  lawsuit was transferred to the Northern  District of California where
it will be consolidated with Cellegy's action.  The Company is unable to predict
the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits.

OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The Company is currently a party to other legal proceedings  incidental to
its business.  While the Company currently believes that the ultimate outcome of
these  proceedings  individually and in the aggregate,  will not have a material
adverse effect on its consolidated  financial statements,  litigation is subject
to  inherent  uncertainties.  Were the  Company  to  settle a  proceeding  for a
material  amount  or were an  unfavorable  ruling  to occur,  there  exists  the
possibility of a material  adverse impact on the Company's  business,  financial
condition and results of operations.

      No amounts have been  accrued for losses under any of the above  mentioned
matters, as no amounts are considered  probable or reasonably  estimable at this
time.

      Other than the foregoing,  the Company is not currently a defendant in any
material  pending  litigation  and it is not  aware of any  material  threatened
litigation.


13.   RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES

      During the third  quarter of 2002,  the  Company  adopted a  restructuring
plan, the objectives of which were to consolidate operations in order to enhance
operating efficiencies (the 2002 Restructuring Plan). This plan was primarily in
response to the general decrease in demand within the Company's  markets for the
sales  and  marketing   services   segment,   and  the   recognition   that  the
infrastructure that supported these business units was larger than required. The
Company originally  estimated that the restructuring  would result in annualized
SG&A savings of approximately $14.0 million, based on the level of SG&A spending
at the time it initiated  the  restructuring.  However,  these savings have been
partially  offset by  incremental  SG&A  expenses  the  Company  incurred in the
current  period as the Company has been  successful  in  expanding  its business
platforms.  Substantially all of the restructuring  activities were completed as
of December 31, 2003.

      During the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company recognized a $270,000
reduction in to the  restructuring  accrual due to negotiating  higher  sublease
proceeds than originally estimated for the leased facility in Cincinnati, Ohio.

      The  accrual  for  restructuring  and  exit  costs  totaled  approximately
$580,000  at March 31,  2004,  and is  recorded  in current  liabilities  on the
accompanying balance sheet.

14.   SEGMENT INFORMATION

      Effective  in the first  quarter  of 2004,  the  Company  reorganized  its
internal  operating  units  from three  reporting  segments  into two  reporting
segments:  sales and  marketing  services  group (SMSG) and PDI  products  group
(PPG). These reorganized segments reflect the termination of the Xylos agreement
and the decision to manage the other medical device and diagnostic  (MD&D) units
under  the  Company's  existing  contract  sales  structure.  Additionally,  the
reorganized  segments  reflect the greater emphasis the Company intends to place
on its services  business and away from  licensing and acquiring  pharmaceutical
and  medical  device  products.  As a result  of this  reorganization,  the MD&D
segment was disaggregated and assimilated into the two remaining  segments.  The
MD&D segment was comprised of the clinical sales unit, MD&D contract sales unit,
and product  licensing.  The SMSG segment now includes  the  Company's  clinical
sales and MD&D contract sales units; the Company's dedicated and shared contract
sales units;  and the  Company's  marketing  research and medical  education and
communication   services.   The  businesses   within  SMSG   recognize   revenue
predominantly  through   fee-for-service   contracts.   The  PPG  contracts  are
characterized  by  either  significant   management  effort  required  from  the
Company's  product

marketing  group,  or reliance on the  attainment of  performance  incentives in
order to fully cover the Company's  costs, or both. The PPG segment now includes
MD&D  product  offerings  in addition to the rest of the  Company's  copromotion
services.  PPG derives  revenue  through a variety of agreement  types including
directly  from product  sales or based on a formula  with  product  sales as its
basis.  The segment  information from prior periods has been restated to conform
to the current period's presentation.

      Corporate  charges are allocated to each of the operating  segments on the
basis of total salary costs.  Corporate  charges include  corporate  headquarter
costs and  certain  depreciation  expense.  Capital  expenditures  have not been
allocated to the operating segments since it is impracticable to do so.

15.   GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

      Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "GOODWILL AND
OTHER  INTANGIBLE  ASSETS." Under SFAS No. 142,  goodwill is no longer amortized
but is evaluated for  impairment  on at least an annual  basis.  The Company has
established  reporting  units for purposes of testing  goodwill for  impairment.
Goodwill  has been  assigned  to the  reporting  units to which the value of the
goodwill relates.  The Company performed the required annual impairment tests in
the fourth quarter of 2003 and determined that no impairment existed at December
31, 2003. These tests involved  determining the fair market value of each of the
reporting  units  with which the  goodwill  was  associated  and  comparing  the
estimated  fair market  value of each of the  reporting  units with its carrying
amount.  The  Company's  total  goodwill  which is not  subject to  amortization
totaled $11.1 million as of March 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003.

      There were no changes in the carrying  amount of goodwill  since  December
31, 2003. The carrying amounts at March 31, 2004 by operating  segment are shown
below:

RESTATEMENT OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

      We have restated our previously issued consolidated  financial  statements
for the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 (the previously  issued financial
statements)   to  apply  the  provisions  of  EITF  01-14,   "Income   Statement
Characterization  of  Reimbursement   Received  for   `Out-of-Pocket'   Expenses
Incurred."  (EITF 01-14) In September  2004, we became aware that we should have
been applying  EITF 01-14 to the  previously  issued  financial  statements.  In
accordance  with  EITF  01-14,  direct  reimbursements  received  by us from our
clients for certain costs incurred  should have been included as part of revenue
with an  identical  increase  to cost of goods and  services,  rather than being
netted  against  cost of goods  and  services.  Revenue  and  cost of goods  and
services in the previously  issued  financial  statements were increased by $4.3
million  and $5.6  million  for the  quarters  ended  March  31,  2004 and 2003,
respectively.  EITF 01-14,  which was issued in late 2001,  was  applicable  for
years  beginning in 2002,  and also  required  reclassification  of all previous
periods for comparative purposes.

      This  restatement  does  not  affect  previously  reported  gross  profit,
operating  income,  net income,  earnings  per share,  cash flows,  liquidity or
financial  condition.  Additionally,  there  is no  effect  on the  consolidated
balance sheets, consolidated statements of cash flows or consolidated statements
of  stockholders'  equity for the  previously  issued  financial  statements.  A
summary of the effects of the  restatement  to  reclassify  these  amounts is as
follows:

OVERVIEW

     We  are  a   healthcare   sales   and   marketing   company   serving   the
biopharmaceutical  and medical devices and  diagnostics  (MD&D)  industries.  We
create and  execute  sales and  marketing  campaigns  intended  to  improve  the
profitability of pharmaceutical or MD&D products.  We do this by partnering with
companies  who own the  intellectual  property  rights  to  these  products  and
recognize our ability to  commercialize  these products and maximize their sales
performance.  We have a variety of  agreement  types that we enter into with our
partner  companies,  from fee for  service  arrangements  to  performance  based
contracts.

REPORTING SEGMENTS

      Our business is organized into two reporting segments:

o     PDI sales and marketing services group (SMSG), comprised of:

            o  Sales Teams Business

                     o  Dedicated contract sales teams

                     o  Shared contract sales teams

                     o  Medical device and diagnostic contract sales teams

                     o  Clinical sales teams

                     o  Hybrid teams

            o  Marketing research and consulting (MR&C)

            o  Medical education and communications (EdComm)

o     PDI products group (PPG) is comprised of those  agreements in which PDI is
      directly or indirectly  compensated  on the basis of product  sales.  This
      segment  currently has the  remaining  revenue from PDI's  agreement  with
      Novartis in support of Lotensin and the agreement with Xylos in support of
      XCell wound care products.  Both  agreements  have been terminated and the
      PPG  segment is  reporting  the  residual  financial  activity  from those
      agreements.

      We  reorganized  our  segments  in the  first  quarter  of 2004 due to the
termination  of the Xylos  agreement  and the  decision to manage the other MD&D
units under our existing contract sales structure. Additionally, the reorganized
segments  reflect  the  greater  emphasis  we  intend  to place on our  services
business and away from licensing and acquiring pharmaceutical and medical device
products. The businesses within the sales and marketing services group recognize
revenue  predominantly  through  fee-for-service  contracts.  The products group
derives revenue  through a variety of agreement  types  including  directly from
product  sales or based on a formula  with product  sales as its basis.  The PPG
contracts are  characterized by either  significant  management  effort required
from our product  marketing  group, or reliance on the attainment of performance
incentives in order to fully cover our costs, or both.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESSES

SALES AND MARKETING SERVICES GROUP (SMSG)

Dedicated Contract Sales Teams
- ------------------------------

      Product  detailing  involves a representative  meeting  face-to-face  with
targeted  physicians and other healthcare decision makers to provide a technical
review of the  product  being  promoted.  Dedicated  contract  sales  teams work
exclusively  on behalf of one client and often carry the  business  cards of the
client.  Each sales team is customized to meet the  specifications of our client
with respect to representative profile,  physician targeting,  product training,
incentive  compensation plans,  integration with clients' in-house sales forces,
call  reporting   platform  and  data  integration.   Without  adding  permanent
personnel,  the  client  gets  a  high  quality,  industry-standard  sales  team
comparable to its internal sales force.

Shared Contract Sales Teams
- ---------------------------

      Our shared sales teams sell multiple brands from different  pharmaceutical
manufacturers.  Through them, we make a face-to-face  selling resource available
to those clients that want an  alternative  to a dedicated  team. The PDI Shared
Sales teams are leading providers of these detailing  programs in the U.S. Since
costs are shared among various  companies,  these programs may be less expensive
for the client than programs  involving a dedicated  sales force.  With a shared
sales team,  the client still gets targeted  coverage of its physician  audience
within the representatives' geographic territories.

Medical Device and Diagnostics Contract Sales Teams
- ---------------------------------------------------

      MD&D contract sales is an outsourced  solution for selling medical devices
to hospitals, clinics and other healthcare institutions. The MD&D contract sales
teams work exclusively on behalf of one client. Each sales team is customized to
meet the  specifications of our client with respect to  representative  profile,
identified   territories,   product  training,   incentive  compensation  plans,
integration with clients' in-house sales forces,  activity  reporting  platform,
program duration, and data integration.  Without adding permanent personnel, the
client gets a high quality, industry-standard sales team.

Medical Device and Diagnostics Clinical Sales Teams
- ---------------------------------------------------

      Our clinical sales teams employ nurses, medical  technologists,  and other
clinicians  who train and provide  hands-on  clinical  education and after sales
support to the medical  staffs of hospitals and clinics that recently  purchased
our clients' equipment. Our activities maximize product utilization and customer
satisfaction for the medical  practitioners,  while simultaneously  enabling our
clients'  sales  forces  to  continue  their  selling   activities   instead  of
in-servicing the equipment.

Hybrid Teams
- ------------

      Hybrid teams take elements of the different sales teams outlined above and
coordinate their activities to achieve a unique solution for a client.  In order
to gain greater  physician  coverage  across the  country,  a client may want to
deploy a dedicated team to the large  metropolitan  markets and supplement  that
team with a shared team in order to reach additional  markets and physicians not
reached by the  dedicated  team.  Another  example  of a hybrid  team may be the
combination  of a sales team with a clinical  team when the  product  requires a
sales effort along with  clinical  support.  Hybrid teams enable us to craft the
correct solution for clients with unique challenges.


Marketing Research (MR&C)

      Employing  leading  edge,  and in  some  instances  proprietary,  research
methodologies, we provide

                                       23



qualitative and quantitative marketing research to pharmaceutical companies with
respect to healthcare providers, patients and managed care customers in the U.S.
and  globally.  We  offer a full  range  of  pharmaceutical  marketing  research
services  which  includes  studies  to  identify  the  most  impactful  business
strategy, profile,  positioning,  message, execution,  implementation,  and post
implementation  for a product.  Correctly  implemented,  our marketing  research
model  improves the  knowledge  clients  obtain about how  physicians  and other
healthcare professionals will likely react to products.

      We utilize a systematic  approach to  pharmaceutical  marketing  research.
Recognizing  that every marketing  need, and therefore every marketing  research
solution,  is unique, we have developed our marketing model to help identify the
work that  needs to be done in order to  identify  critical  paths to  marketing
goals.  At  each  step of the  marketing  model  we can  offer  proven  research
techniques,  proprietary  methodologies  and customized study designs to address
specific product needs.

      In addition to  conducting  marketing  research,  we have trained  several
thousand  industry  professionals  at  our  public  seminars.  Our  professional
development seminars focus on key marketing processes and issues.

Medical Education and Communications (EdComm)
- ---------------------------------------------

      Our medical education and communications  group provides medical education
and promotional  communications  to the  biopharmaceutical  and MD&D industries.
Using an  expert-driven,  customized  approach,  we  provide  our  clients  with
integrated advocacy development,  accredited continuing medical education (CME),
promotions,  publication  services and interactive sales initiatives to generate
incremental value for products.

      We create custom designed programs focusing on optimizing the informed use
of our  clients'  products.  Our services  are  executed  through a  customized,
integrated plan that can be leveraged across the product's entire life cycle. We
can meet a wide  range of  objectives,  including  advocacy  during  pre-launch,
communicating disease state awareness,  supporting a product launch,  helping an
under-performing  brand,  fending  off new  competition,  and  expanding  market
leadership.

PDI PRODUCTS GROUP (PPG)

      There  are  occasions  when  a  biopharmaceutical  or  medical  device  or
diagnostic  company would want to  outlicense,  sell or copromote a product that
they own or to which they own the rights.  They may not have the capabilities to
market a product  themselves or they may have other products in their  portfolio
on which they are  concentrating  their sales and marketing  resources.  In this
instance,  our products group works to create a mutually beneficial  partnership
arrangement,   pursuant   to  which  we  utilize   our  sales,   marketing   and
commercialization  capabilities  to  commercialize  the product for our partner.
These  agreements may require  upfront  payments,  royalty  payments,  milestone
payments and many other compensation strategies.  These agreements generally are
riskier for us, but generally  have the potential to deliver  greater  revenues,
margins and consistency than our services businesses.

     Given the broad  array of our  service  offerings,  we are able to  provide
complete product  commercialization  capabilities (Integrated  Commercialization
Services) to pharmaceutical  companies on a fee for service basis. The execution
of these product  sales,  marketing and  commercialization  activities  would be
substantially similar to those we perform in a copromotion, licensing or product
acquisition  transaction;  however,  our fee structure and risk profile would be
markedly different.


NATURE OF CONTRACTS BY SEGMENT

      Given the  customized  nature of our  business,  we  utilize a variety  of
contract structures.  Historically, most of our product detailing contracts have
been fee for service, I.E., the client pays a fee for a specified


                                       24



package of services.  These contracts typically include operational  benchmarks,
such as a minimum number of sales  representatives or a minimum number of calls.
Also, our contracts might have a lower base fee offset by built-in incentives we
can earn based on our performance.  In these situations, we have the opportunity
to  earn  additional  fees,  as  incentives,   based  on  attaining  performance
benchmarks.

      Our product  detailing  contracts  generally are for terms of one to three
years and may be renewed or extended.  However,  the majority of these contracts
are  terminable  by the client for any  reason on 30 to 90 days'  notice.  These
contracts  sometimes  provide  for  termination  payments  in the event they are
terminated by the client without cause.  While the cancellation of a contract by
a client  without cause may result in the imposition of penalties on the client,
these  penalties may not act as an adequate  deterrent to the termination of any
contract. In addition, we cannot assure you that these penalties will offset the
revenue we could have earned  under the  contract or the costs we may incur as a
result of its  termination.  The loss or  termination of a large contract or the
loss of  multiple  contracts  could  adversely  affect  our future  revenue  and
profitability.  Contracts  may also be  terminated  for cause if we fail to meet
stated performance benchmarks.

      Our MR&C and EdComm  contracts  generally  are for  projects  lasting from
three to six months.  The contracts are terminable by the client and provide for
termination payments in the event they are terminated without cause. Termination
payments  include  payment of all work  completed to date,  plus the cost of any
nonrefundable  commitments made on behalf of the client. Due to the typical size
of the projects,  it is unlikely the loss or termination of any individual  MR&C
or EdComm  contract  would  have a  material  adverse  impact on our  results of
operations, cash flows and liquidity.

      The contracts within the products group can be either performance based or
fee for service and may require sales, marketing and distribution of product. In
performance-based  contracts,  we provide and finance a portion,  if not all, of
the  commercial  activities  in support of a brand in return for a percentage of
product sales. An important performance parameter is normally the level of sales
or  prescriptions  attained by the product during the period of our marketing or
promotional responsibility, and in some cases, for periods after our promotional
activities have ended.

      In May  2001,  we  entered  into a  copromotion  agreement  with  Novartis
Pharmaceuticals  Corporation  (Novartis)  for  the  U.S.  sales,  marketing  and
promotion rights for Lotensin(R),  Lotensin HCT(R) and Lotrel(R). That agreement
was scheduled to run through  December 31, 2003. On May 20, 2002, that agreement
was  replaced by two separate  agreements:  one for Lotensin and another one for
Lotrel,  Diovan(R) and Diovan HCT(R).  The Lotensin  agreement  called for us to
provide  promotion,  selling,  marketing and brand  management for Lotensin.  In
exchange,  we were entitled to receive a percentage of product  revenue based on
certain  total  prescription   (TRx)  objectives  above  specified   contractual
baselines.   Both  agreements  ran  through  December  31,  2003;  however,  the
Lotrel-Diovan  agreement  was  renewed on December  24,  2003 for an  additional
one-year period. In February 2004, we were notified by Novartis of its intent to
terminate the  Lotrel-Diovan  contract  without cause,  effective March 16, 2004
and, as a result,  $28.9  million of  anticipated  revenue  associated  with the
Lotrel-Diovan  contract in 2004 will not be realized.  We were compensated under
the terms of the agreement  through the effective  termination date. Even though
the Lotensin agreement ended December 31, 2003, we are still entitled to receive
royalty  payments  on the sales of  Lotensin  through  December  31,  2004.  The
royalties  earned under this  arrangement  totaled $2.3 million during the first
quarter of 2004; the royalties earned during the remaining  quarters of 2004 are
expected  to  diminish   substantially  because  the  product  lost  its  patent
protection in February 2004.

      On December 31, 2002,  we entered  into an exclusive  licensing  agreement
with Cellegy  Pharmaceuticals,  Inc.  (Cellegy) for the exclusive North American
rights for Fortigel(TM),  a testosterone gel product. The agreement is in effect
for the commercial life of the product. Cellegy submitted a New Drug Application
(NDA) for the hypogonadism  indication to the U.S. Food and Drug  Administration
(FDA) in June  2002.  In July  2003,  Cellegy  received  a  letter  from the FDA
rejecting  its NDA for Fortigel.  Cellegy has told us that it is in  discussions
with the FDA to determine the appropriate course of action needed to

                                       25



meet  deficiencies  cited by the FDA in its  determination.  Since we filed  the
lawsuit,  Cellegy is no longer in regular  contact with us  regarding  Fortigel.
Thus, for example,  we are unaware of the precise FDA status regarding  Fortigel
(as of March  31,  2004,  it had not been  approved)  and the FDA  continued  to
express concern about the high  supraphysiologic  Cmax serum testosterone levels
achieved  in subjects of  Fortigel  testing.  We are also  unaware of what steps
Cellegy is taking to develop  Fortigel,  to obtain FDA  approval  for  Fortigel,
and/or to arrange for a party to  manufacture  Fortigel.  We have requested this
information from Cellegy but have not received full and complete  responses from
Cellegy.  Accordingly,  we  may  not  possess  the  most  current  and  reliable
information  concerning the current status of, or future  prospects  relating to
Fortigel.  The  issuance  of the  non-approvable  letter  by the FDA  concerning
Fortigel, however, casts significant doubt upon Fortigel's prospects and whether
it will ever be approved.  We cannot predict with any certainty  whether the FDA
will  ultimately  approve  Fortigel for sale in the U.S.  Under the terms of the
agreement, we paid Cellegy a $15.0 million initial licensing fee on December 31,
2002.  This  payment  was  made  prior to FDA  approval  and  since  there is no
alternative  future use of the licensed  rights,  we expensed the $15.0  million
payment in December  2002,  when  incurred.  This  amount was  recorded in other
selling,   general  and  administrative   expenses  in  the  December  31,  2002
consolidated  statements of  operations.  Pursuant to the terms of the licensing
agreement,  we will be  required  to pay  Cellegy  a $10.0  million  incremental
license fee milestone payment upon Fortigel's  receipt of all approvals required
by the FDA (if such approvals are obtained) to promote,  sell and distribute the
product in the U.S. This incremental milestone license fee, if incurred, will be
recorded as an intangible asset and amortized over its estimated useful life, as
then  determined,  which is not  expected to exceed the life of the  patent.  We
believe  that  we  will  not  be  required  to pay  Cellegy  the  $10.0  million
incremental  license fee  milestone  payment in 2004,  and it is unclear at this
point when or if  Cellegy  will get  Fortigel  approved  by the FDA which  would
trigger our  obligation  to pay $10.0  million to Cellegy.  Royalty  payments to
Cellegy over the term of the commercial life of the product would range from 20%
to 30% of net sales. See Note 12 for more information on Cellegy Pharmaceuticals
Litigation.

      In October  2002,  we  partnered  with Xylos  Corporation  (Xylos) for the
exclusive U.S.  commercialization  rights to the Xylos XCell(TM) Cellulose Wound
Dressing (XCell) wound care products,  by entering into an agreement pursuant to
which we became the exclusive commercialization partner for the sales, marketing
and  distribution  of the  product  line in the U.S.  On  January  2,  2004,  we
exercised our  contractual  right to terminate the agreement on 135 days' notice
to Xylos  since  sales  of XCell  were not  sufficient  to  sustain  our role as
commercialization  partner for the product.  We are still  accepting  orders for
XCell products until May 16, 2004 when the agreement  will  terminate;  however,
our  promotional  activities in support of the brand  concluded in January 2004.
See Notes 5 and 6 to the financial statements for more information. We currently
do not anticipate entering into similar commercialization agreements in the MD&D
market.

REVENUE RECOGNITION AND ASSOCIATED COSTS

      The paragraphs  that follow  describe the guidelines  that we adhere to in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) when recognizing
revenue  and  cost  of  goods  and  services  in our  financial  statements.  In
accordance with GAAP,  service revenue and product revenue and their  respective
direct costs have been shown separately on the income statement.

      Historically, we have derived a significant portion of our service revenue
from  a  limited   number  of   clients.   Concentration   of  business  in  the
pharmaceutical  services  industry  is  common  and the  industry  continues  to
consolidate.  As a result,  we are likely to continue to experience  significant
client  concentration  in future  periods.  For the three months ended March 31,
2004 and  2003,  our  three  and two  largest  clients,  respectively,  who each
individually  represented  10% or more of our  service  revenue,  accounted  for
approximately 78.6%, and 69.0%, respectively, of our service revenue.

                                       26



      SERVICE REVENUE AND PROGRAM EXPENSES

      Service  revenue  is earned  primarily  by  performing  product  detailing
programs and other marketing and promotional  services under contracts.  Revenue
is recognized as the services are performed and the right to receive payment for
the services is assured.  Revenue is recognized  net of any potential  penalties
until the  performance  criteria  relating to the penalties  have been achieved.
Performance  incentives,  as well as  termination  payments,  are  recognized as
revenue in the period  earned and when payment of the bonus,  incentive or other
payment is assured.  Under  performance  based contracts,  revenue is recognized
when the performance based parameters are achieved.

      Program expenses consist  primarily of the costs associated with executing
product  detailing  programs,  performance  based  contracts  or other sales and
marketing  services  identified  in  the  contract.   Program  expenses  include
personnel costs and other costs associated with executing a product detailing or
other  marketing or  promotional  program,  as well as the initial  direct costs
associated with staffing a product detailing  program.  Such costs include,  but
are not limited to, facility rental fees, honoraria and travel expenses,  sample
expenses and other promotional  expenses.  Personnel costs, which constitute the
largest portion of program  expenses,  include all labor related costs,  such as
salaries,   bonuses,   fringe   benefits   and  payroll   taxes  for  the  sales
representatives  and sales  managers  and  professional  staff who are  directly
responsible for executing a particular program. Initial direct program costs are
those costs  associated with  initiating a product  detailing  program,  such as
recruiting,   hiring,  and  training  the  sales  representatives  who  staff  a
particular  product  detailing  program.  All personnel costs and initial direct
program costs,  other than training costs,  are expensed as incurred for service
offerings. Product detailing,  marketing and promotional expenses related to the
detailing of products we  distribute  are recorded as a selling  expense and are
included  in  other  selling,   general  and  administrative   expenses  in  the
consolidated statements of operations.

      Reimbursable Out-of-Pocket Expenses
      -----------------------------------

      Reimbursable  out-of-pocket  expenses include those relating to travel and
out-of pocket  expenses and other similar costs,  for which we are reimbursed at
cost from our clients.  In accordance with the requirements of EITF 01-14, it is
required that  reimbursements  received for  out-of-pocket  expenses incurred be
characterized  as revenue and an  identical  amount be included as cost of goods
and services in the consolidated statements of operations.

      Training Costs
      --------------

      Training costs include the costs of training the sales representatives and
managers on a particular product detailing program so that they are qualified to
properly  perform  the  services  specified  in the  related  contract.  For all
contracts,  training costs are deferred and amortized on a  straight-line  basis
over the shorter of the life of the  contract to which they relate or 12 months.
When we receive a specific contract payment from a client upon commencement of a
product detailing program expressly to compensate us for recruiting,  hiring and
training  services  associated  with  staffing  that  program,  such  payment is
deferred and  recognized as revenue in the same period that the  recruiting  and
hiring  expenses  are  incurred and  amortization  of the  deferred  training is
expensed.  When we do not receive a specific contract payment for training,  all
revenue is deferred and recognized over the life of the contract.

      As a result  of the  revenue  recognition  and  program  expense  policies
described  above, we may incur  significant  initial direct program costs before
recognizing revenue under a particular product detailing program.  Our inability
to  specifically  negotiate for payments that are  specifically  attributable to
recruiting, hiring or training services in our product detailing contracts could
adversely impact our operating results for periods in which the costs associated
with the product detailing services are incurred.

                                       27



      PRODUCT REVENUE AND COST OF GOODS SOLD

      Product  revenue is  recognized  when  products  are  shipped and title is
transferred  to the  customer.  Product  revenue of  approximately  $101,000 and
$34,000 for the three  months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003,  respectively,  was
primarily from the sale of the Xylos wound care products.

      Cost of goods sold includes all expenses for product  distribution  costs,
acquisition and manufacturing costs of the product sold.  Inventory is valued at
the lower of cost or  market  value.  Cost is  determined  using  the  first-in,
first-out  costing  method.  Inventory to date has  consisted  of only  finished
goods.

      REVENUE.  Net  revenue  for the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2004 was $92.6
million,  26.7% more than net revenue of $73.1  million  for the  quarter  ended
March 31, 2003.  Net revenue  from the SMSG segment for the quarter  ended March
31, 2004 was $90.2  million,  43.0% more than net revenue of $63.1  million from
that  segment for the  comparable  prior year  period.  This  increase is mainly
attributable to the addition of three significant dedicated contract sales teams
contracts in July 2003.  Subsequent  quarters in 2004 will be adversely affected
by the  termination of the  Lotrel-Diovan  contract (see Note 5 to the financial
statements.)  On May 3, 2004 we  announced  the  awarding  of two new  dedicated
contract  sales teams  contracts  which  total  approximately  $34.0  million in
revenue,  excluding  any  associated  revenue  from  reimbursable  out-of-pocket
expenses, for the remainder of 2004. Net PPG revenue for the quarter ended March
31, 2004 was $2.5 million;  of this,  $2.3 million is due to Lotensin  royalties
and the remaining amount consists primarily of approximately $101,000 in product
revenue related to the sale of the Xylos product.  The Lotensin royalties earned
during the remaining quarters of 2004 are expected to diminish

                                       28



substantially  because the product lost its patent  protection in February 2004.
Net PPG revenue was $10.1 million in the comparable prior year period. The large
decrease can be attributed  to the  completion  of the Lotensin  contract  which
ended December 31, 2003.

      COST OF GOODS AND  SERVICES.  Cost of goods and  services  for the quarter
ended  March  31,  2004 was  $66.1  million,  19.1%  more than cost of goods and
services of $55.5  million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003. As a percentage
of total net  revenue,  cost of goods and  services  decreased  to 71.4% for the
quarter  ended March 31, 2004 from 75.9% in the  comparable  prior year  period.
Program expenses (i.e.,  cost of services)  associated with the SMSG segment for
the quarter  ended March 31, 2004 were $65.9  million,  44.1% more than  program
expenses of $45.7  million for the prior year  period.  This  increase is mainly
attributable to the addition of three significant dedicated contract sales teams
contracts in July 2003. As a percentage of sales and marketing  services segment
revenue,  program  expenses for the quarters  ended March 31, 2004 and 2003 were
73.1% and 72.5%,  respectively.  Cost of goods and services  associated with the
PPG segment were approximately  $244,000 and $9.8 million for the quarters ended
March 31, 2004 and 2003,  respectively.  This  decrease can be attributed to the
completion of the Lotensin contract which ended December 31, 2003.

      COMPENSATION EXPENSE. Compensation expense for the quarter ended March 31,
2004 was $10.2 million,  15.1% more than $8.9 million for the  comparable  prior
year  period.  The  increase  in  compensation  expense  was  primarily  due  to
approximately $1.0 million recorded for severance related expense resulting from
the  elimination  of several  positions.  As a percentage  of total net revenue,
compensation  expense  decreased  to 11.0% for the quarter  ended March 31, 2004
from  12.1%  for the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2003  due to  continuing  cost
management  efforts.  Compensation  expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2004
attributable  to the SMSG segment was $9.1 million  compared to $6.1 million for
the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2003.  As a  percentage  of total SMSG  revenue,
compensation  expense  increased  to 10.1% for the quarter  ended March 31, 2004
from 9.6% for the quarter  ended March 31,  2003.  Compensation  expense for the
quarter ended March 31, 2004  attributable  to the PPG segment was $1.1 million,
or 44.1% of PPG revenue,  compared to $2.8  million,  or 27.7% in the prior year
period; this decrease can be attributed to the lower level of resources required
after the completion of the Lotensin contract which ended December 31, 2003.

      OTHER SELLING,  GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE  EXPENSES. Total other selling,
general and  administrative  expenses  were $6.5  million for the quarter  ended
March 31,  2004,  11.3%  more than other  selling,  general  and  administrative
expenses  of $5.8  million  for the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2003.  Excluding
approximately  $700,000  in legal  fee  reimbursements  from  Bayer in the first
quarter  2003,  total  other  selling,  general and  administrative  expenses is
essentially  the same for both  periods.  As a percentage  of total net revenue,
total other selling,  general and administrative  expenses decreased to 7.0% for
the quarter  ended March 31, 2004 from 8.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2003
due  to  continuing  cost  management  efforts.   Other  selling,   general  and
administrative  expenses  attributable to the SMSG segment for the quarter ended
March  31,  2004 were $5.7  million,  compared  to other  selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses of $3.4  million  attributable  to that segment for the
comparable prior year period. This increase is primarily due to a larger portion
of corporate  overhead costs being  allocated to the SMSG segment in the current
period. As a percentage of net revenue from sales and marketing services,  other
selling, general and administrative expenses were 6.4% and 5.4% for the quarters
ended  March  31,  2004 and  2003,  respectively.  Other  selling,  general  and
administrative  expenses  attributable  to the PPG segment for the quarter ended
March 31, 2004 were  approximately  $754,000  compared  to $2.4  million for the
comparable prior year period; this decrease can be attributed to the lower level
of resources  required after the completion of the Lotensin contract which ended
December 31, 2003.

      RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES (CREDITS).  For the quarter ended
March  31,  2004 we did  not  recognize  any  adjustments  to the  restructuring
accrual.  During the quarter  ended March 31,  2003,  we  recognized  a $270,000
credit  adjustment  to  the  restructuring  accrual  due to  negotiating  higher
sublease  proceeds  than  originally   estimated  for  the  leased  facility  in
Cincinnati,  Ohio. See the "RESTRUCTURING AND

                                       29



OTHER  RELATED  EXPENSES"  disclosure  below  for  further  explanations  of the
Restructuring Plan and related activity.

      LITIGATION  SETTLEMENT.  On May 8, 2003, we entered into a settlement  and
mutual release agreement with Auxillium (Settlement  Agreement).  The settlement
terms included a cash payment paid upon  execution of the  Settlement  Agreement
and other  additional  expenses  that  totaled  $2.1  million.  This expense was
recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

      OPERATING  INCOME.  Operating  income for the quarter ended March 31, 2004
was $9.8 million,  compared to operating  income of $1.1 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 2003.  Operating income for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 for
the SMSG  segment was $9.4  million,  or 38.5%  higher  than the SMSG  operating
income for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 of $6.8 million.  As a percentage of
net revenue from the sales and marketing services segment,  operating income for
that segment decreased to 10.5% for the quarter ended March 31, 2004, from 10.8%
for the  comparable  prior year period.  There was operating  income for the PPG
segment  for  the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2004 of  approximately  $383,000,
substantially  due to the $2.3  million  in  royalties  received  for  Lotensin,
compared to an operating loss of $5.7 million for the prior year period.

      OTHER INCOME,  NET.  Other income,  net, for the quarters  ended March 31,
2004  and  2003 was  $318,000  and  $269,000,  respectively,  and was  comprised
primarily of interest income.

     PROVISION  FOR INCOME  TAXES.  Income tax expense was $4.1  million for the
quarter  ended March 31, 2004,  compared to income tax expense of  approximately
$556,000 for the quarter  ended March 31, 2003,  which  consisted of Federal and
state corporate income taxes. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended March
31, 2004 was 41.0%,  compared to an effective tax rate of 41.7 % for the quarter
ended March 31, 2003.  The  effective  tax rate for the quarter  ended March 31,
2004 is lower than the  effective  tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2003
because the permanent book versus tax  differences  were a larger  proportion of
projected pretax income in 2003 as compared to 2004.

      NET  INCOME.  Net  income  for  the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2004  was
approximately $6.0 million, compared to net income of approximately $778,000 for
the quarter ended March 31, 2003. This increase is due to the factors  discussed
above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      As of March 31,  2004,  we had cash and cash  equivalents  and  short-term
investments of approximately $118.9 million and working capital of approximately
$106.1 million, compared to cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments
of  approximately  $114.6 million and working  capital of  approximately  $100.0
million at December 31, 2003.

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004,  net cash provided by operating
activities was $6.3 million, compared to $4.1 million net cash used in operating
activities  for the three months ended March 31, 2003.  The main  components  of
cash  provided by operating  activities  during the three months ended March 31,
2004 were:

      o  net income of approximately $6.0 million; and

      o  depreciation and other non-cash expenses of approximately  $2.7 million
         which  included  bad debt  expense  of  approximately  $500,000,  stock
         compensation  expense of  approximately  $684,000 and  amortization  of
         intangible assets of approximately  $153,000, each of which was charged
         to SG&A; partially offset by

      o  cash used in "other changes in assets and liabilities" of $2.4 million.

                                       30



      As of March 31, 2004, we had $18.6  million of unbilled  costs and accrued
profits on  contracts  in progress.  When  services are  performed in advance of
billing,  the value of such  services is recorded as unbilled  costs and accrued
profits on  contracts  in progress.  Normally,  all  unbilled  costs and accrued
profits are earned and billed  within 12 months  from the end of the  respective
period.  Substantially all of the $18.6 million of unbilled costs were billed in
April  2004.  Also,  as of March 31,  2004,  we had $10.3  million  of  unearned
contract  revenue.  When we bill  clients  for  services  before  they have been
completed,  billed amounts are recorded as unearned  contract  revenue,  and are
recorded as income when earned.

      The net changes in the "Other changes in assets and  liabilities"  section
of the consolidated  statement of cash flows may fluctuate depending on a number
of factors, including the number and size of programs,  contract terms and other
timing  issues;  these  variations  may change in size and  direction  with each
reporting period.

      For the three  months  ended March 31,  2004,  net cash used in  investing
activities  was $45.4  million.  This  consisted  of $42.8  million  used in the
purchase of a laddered  portfolio of short-term  investments  in very high grade
debt instruments with a focus on preserving capital,  maintaining liquidity, and
maximizing returns in accordance with our investment  criteria.  In an effort to
gain a higher yield from cash on hand,  we made  short-term  investments  having
maturity  dates  occurring  after June 30,  2004 and through  October 31,  2005.
Capital  expenditures  during the  three-month  period ended March 31, 2004 were
$2.6 million, almost entirely composed of purchases related to our expected move
to our new  corporate  headquarters  in the  third  quarter  of 2004.  There was
approximately  $215,000 in capital  expenditures for the quarter ended March 31,
2003. For both periods,  all capital  expenditures  were funded out of available
cash. We are expecting to incur total capital expenditures of approximately $4.0
million in connection with our corporate headquarters move.

      For the three months ended March 31, 2004,  net cash provided by financing
activities of approximately  $524,000 was due to the net proceeds  received from
the exercise of stock options.

      Our  revenue  and   profitability   depend  to  a  great   extent  on  our
relationships with a limited number of large pharmaceutical  companies.  For the
three months ended March 31, 2004, we had three major clients that accounted for
approximately 44.7%, 20.2% and 13.7%,  respectively,  or a total of 78.6% of our
service revenue. We are likely to continue to experience a high degree of client
concentration,  particularly  if  there  is  further  consolidation  within  the
pharmaceutical  industry.  The loss or a significant  reduction of business from
any of our major clients, or a decrease in demand for our services, could have a
material adverse effect on our business, future results of operations, financial
condition or cash flows.

      Under our licensing  agreement  with  Cellegy,  we will be required to pay
Cellegy  a  $10.0  million   incremental  license  fee  milestone  payment  upon
Fortigel's  receipt of all  approvals  required by the FDA to promote,  sell and
distribute  the product in the U.S. Upon  payment,  this  incremental  milestone
license fee will be  recorded  as an  intangible  asset and  amortized  over the
estimated commercial life of the product, as then determined.  This payment will
be funded,  when due, out of cash flows provided by operations and existing cash
balances.  In addition,  under the licensing agreement,  we would be required to
pay Cellegy  royalty  payments  ranging from 20% to 30% of net sales,  including
minimum  royalty  payments,  if and when complete FDA approval is received.  The
initial 10-month Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) date for the product was
April 5, 2003.  In March 2003,  Cellegy  was  notified by the FDA that the PDUFA
date had been revised to July 3, 2003. On July 3, 2003,  Cellegy was notified by
the FDA that Fortigel was not approved.  Cellegy is in discussions  with the FDA
to determine the appropriate  course of action needed to meet deficiencies cited
by the FDA in its  determination.  We cannot predict with any certainty that the
FDA will ultimately  approve Fortigel for sale in the U.S.  Management  believes
that it will not be  required  to pay  Cellegy  the  $10.0  million  incremental
license fee milestone  payment in 2004,  and it is unclear at this point when or
if  Cellegy  will get  Fortigel  approved  by the FDA which  would  trigger  our
obligation to pay $10.0 million to Cellegy.

                                       31



      On December 12,  2003,  we filed a complaint  against  Cellegy in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges that
Cellegy  fraudulently  induced us to enter into a license agreement with Cellegy
regarding  Fortigel on December 31, 2002.  The complaint also alleges claims for
misrepresentation  and breach of contract related to the license  agreement.  In
the complaint, we seek, among other things,  rescission of the license agreement
and return of the $15.0  million we paid  Cellegy.  After we filed this lawsuit,
also on December  12,  2003,  Cellegy  filed a complaint  against us in the U.S.
District  Court for the Northern  District of  California.  Cellegy's  complaint
seeks a  declaration  that Cellegy did not  fraudulently  induce us to enter the
license  agreement and that Cellegy has not breached its  obligations  under the
license agreement.  By order dated April 23, 2004 our lawsuit was transferred to
the Northern District of California where it will be consolidated with Cellegy's
action. We are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits.

      The restatement of the consolidated  financial statements for the quarters
ended  March  31,  2004  and  2003  as  discussed  in  Note  1B to  the  audited
consolidated financial statements has no effect on our cash balances,  liquidity
or financial condition.

      We  believe  that our  existing  cash  balances  and  expected  cash flows
generated from  operations  will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital
requirements  for the  next 12  months.  We  continue  to  evaluate  and  review
financing  opportunities  and  acquisition  candidates in the ordinary course of
business.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES

      During the third quarter of 2002,  we adopted a  restructuring  plan,  the
objectives of which were to consolidate operations in order to enhance operating
efficiencies (the 2002 Restructuring  Plan). This plan was primarily in response
to the general decrease in demand within our markets for the sales and marketing
services  segment,  and the recognition that the  infrastructure  that supported
these business units was larger than required.  We originally estimated that the
restructuring  would result in annualized  SG&A savings of  approximately  $14.0
million,  based on the  level of SG&A  spending  at the  time we  initiated  the
restructuring.  However, these savings have been partially offset by incremental
SG&A  expenses we incurred in the current  period as we have been  successful in
expanding  our  business  platforms.  Substantially  all  of  the  restructuring
activities were completed as of December 31, 2003.

      During  the  quarter  ended  March 31,  2003,  we  recognized  a  $270,000
reduction in to the  restructuring  accrual due to negotiating  higher  sublease
proceeds than originally estimated for the leased facility in Cincinnati, Ohio.

      The  accrual  for  restructuring  and  exit  costs  totaled  approximately
$580,000  at March 31,  2004,  and is  recorded  in current  liabilities  on the
accompanying balance sheet.

      A roll  forward  of the  activity  for the 2002  Restructuring  Plan is as
follows:

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

      The  Company  became  aware  of  the   applicability   of  the  accounting
pronouncement,  EITF 01-14, to the Company's  financial  statements in September
2004. EITF 01-14 should have been applied to such financial statements beginning
with first quarter of 2002. Due to the non-application of EITF 01-14 since 2002,
the Company  discovered  certain errors in the  classification  of  reimbursable
costs in its  consolidated  statements  of  operations  since  2002,  which  are
described in Note 1B to the consolidated financial statements in the Form 10-K/A
for 2003 filed on November 3, 2004. As a result,  the Company  determined that a
material  weakness  existed in its financial  reporting and disclosure  controls
regarding  the  selection  and  application  of  generally  accepted  accounting
principles  (GAAP),  and preparation of the consolidated  financial  statements.
Accordingly,  the  Company  has  determined  that  its  internal  controls  over
financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as
of March 31, 2004.

      The Company considered the impact of the material weakness as of March 31,
2004, and determined that the magnitude of any actual or potential  misstatement
was limited to an increase by identical amounts in revenue and cost of goods and
services in the relevant  financial  statements with no changes to gross profit,
operating income,  net income, or earnings per share, nor is there any effect on
the  consolidated  balance  sheets,  consolidated  statements of cash flows,  or
consolidated statements of changes in stockholders' equity.

      Beginning  in  September  2004,  the  Company  has taken a series of steps
designed  to  improve  the  control   processes   regarding  the  selection  and
application of GAAP and  preparation  and review of the  consolidated  financial
statements.  Specifically,  key personnel  involved in the  Company's  financial
reporting  processes  have  enhanced  the process  through  which  authoritative
guidance  will be monitored  on a regular  basis.  Review of both  authoritative
guidance  and industry  practices  will be conducted in order to ensure that all
new  guidance  is  being  complied  with  in the  preparation  of the  financial
statements, related disclosures and periodic filings with the SEC. Additionally,
when the Company became aware of the  non-application  of EITF 01-14,  all prior
consolidated  financial statements which were filed with the SEC since 2002 were
reviewed  internally  and by an  outside  consultant  for  compliance  with  all
authoritative  guidance  and the  application  of GAAP  and  such  filings  were
determined to be in compliance.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS

Except as described above in "Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures,"
there  has been no change  in the  Company's  internal  control  over  financial
reporting and disclosure controls (as such terms are defined in Rules 13a-15(e),
13a-15(f),  15d-15(e) and 15d-15(f)  under the Exchange Act) that was identified
in  connection  with  management's  evaluation,  as  described  above,  that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's
internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
- ---------------------------

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

SECURITIES LITIGATION

      In January and  February  2002,  we, our chief  executive  officer and our
chief financial officer were served with three complaints that were filed in the
United States District Court for the District of New Jersey alleging  violations
of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange  Act").  These complaints
were brought as purported  shareholder  class actions under  Sections  10(b) and
20(a) of the  Exchange  Act and Rule 10b-5  established  thereunder.  On May 23,
2002, the Court consolidated all three lawsuits into a single action entitled In
re PDI Securities  Litigation,  Master File No.  02-CV-0211,  and appointed lead
plaintiffs  ("Lead  Plaintiffs")  and  Lead  Plaintiffs'  counsel.  On or  about
December 13,  2002,  Lead  Plaintiffs  filed a second  consolidated  and amended
complaint ("Second Consolidated and Amended Complaint"),  which superseded their
earlier complaints.

      The  complaint  names  us,  our  chief  executive  officer  and our  chief
financial  officer as defendants;  purports to state claims against us on behalf
of all persons who  purchased  our common stock  between May 22, 2001 and August
12, 2002; and seeks money damages in unspecified amounts and litigation expenses
including  attorneys' and experts'  fees. The essence of the  allegations in the
Second Consolidated and Amended Complaint is that we intentionally or recklessly
made  false  or  misleading  public  statements  and  omissions  concerning  our
financial  condition  and  prospects  with respect to our marketing of Ceftin in
connection with the October 2000  distribution  agreement with  GlaxoSmithKline,
our marketing of Lotensin in connection with the May 2001 distribution agreement
with Novartis Pharmaceuticals Corporation, as well as our marketing of Evista(R)
in connection  with the October 2001  distribution  agreement with Eli Lilly and
Company.

      In February 2003, we filed a motion to dismiss the Second Consolidated and
Amended Complaint under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and
Rules 9(b) and 12(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  That motion is
fully  submitted to the court for its decision.  We believe that the allegations
in this  purported  securities  class action are without  merit and we intend to
defend the action vigorously.

BAYER-BAYCOL LITIGATION

      We have been named as a defendant  in  numerous  lawsuits,  including  two
class  action  matters,  alleging  claims  arising  from  the use of  Baycol,  a
prescription  cholesterol-lowering medication. Baycol was distributed,  promoted
and sold by Bayer in the U.S.  through  early August  2001,  at which time Bayer
voluntarily  withdrew  Baycol  from  the U.S.  market.  Bayer  retained  certain
companies,  such as us, to provide detailing  services on its behalf pursuant to
contract sales force agreements. We may be named in additional similar lawsuits.
To  date,  we have  defended  these  actions  vigorously  and  have  asserted  a
contractual right of defense and indemnification against Bayer for all costs and
expenses we incur  relating to these  proceedings.  In February 2003, we entered
into a joint defense and indemnification agreement with Bayer, pursuant to which
Bayer has agreed to assume substantially all of our defense costs in pending and
prospective  proceedings  and to  indemnify  us in these  lawsuits,  subject  to
certain  limited  exceptions.  Further,  Bayer  agreed to  reimburse  us for all
reasonable costs and expenses  incurred to date in defending these  proceedings.
As of February 20, 2004 Bayer has reimbursed us for  approximately  $1.6 million
in legal expenses,  of which approximately  $700,000 was received in the quarter
ended March 31, 2003 and was reflected as a credit within  selling,  general and
administrative expense. No amounts have been recorded in 2004.

                                       34



CELLEGY PHARMACEUTICALS LITIGATION

      On December 12,  2003,  we filed a complaint  against  Cellegy in the U.S.
District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleges that
Cellegy  fraudulently  induced us to enter into a license agreement with Cellegy
regarding  Fortigel on December 31, 2002.  The complaint also alleges claims for
misrepresentation  and breach of contract related to the license  agreement.  In
the complaint, we seek, among other things,  rescission of the license agreement
and return of the $15.0  million we paid  Cellegy.  After we filed this lawsuit,
also on December  12,  2003,  Cellegy  filed a complaint  against us in the U.S.
District  Court for the Northern  District of  California.  Cellegy's  complaint
seeks a  declaration  that Cellegy did not  fraudulently  induce us to enter the
license  agreement and that Cellegy has not breached its  obligations  under the
license agreement.  By order dated April 23, 2004 our lawsuit was transferred to
the Northern District of California where it will be consolidated with Cellegy's
action. We are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits.

OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      We are  currently a party to other  legal  proceedings  incidental  to our
business. While management currently believes that the ultimate outcome of these
proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse
effect on our  consolidated  financial  statements,  litigation  is  subject  to
inherent uncertainties.  Were we to settle a proceeding for a material amount or
were an unfavorable  ruling to occur, there exists the possibility of a material
adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

      No amounts have been  accrued for losses under any of the above  mentioned
matters, as no amounts are considered  probable or reasonably  estimable at this
time.
