                        REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors
 and Shareholder of Clinical
 and Pharmacologic Research, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying balance sheets and the related statements of
operations and comprehensive income, of changes in shareholder equity and of
cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Clinical and Pharmacologic Research, Inc. at September 30, 2001 and December 31,
2000, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001 and the year ended December 31, 2000 in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

1.       NATURE OF BUSINESS

         Clinical and Pharmacologic Research, Inc. (the "Company") is a contract
         research organization (CRO) that conducts bioequivalence and clinical
         studies for the generic drug industry. The Company is the preferred
         provider of all clinical research services for Mylan Laboratories,
         Inc.("Mylan"), a leading pharmaceutical company. Mylan is widely
         considered to have the broadest pipeline of all generic manufacturers,
         having 22 Abbreviated New Drug Applications ("ANDAs") currently under
         FDA review. The relationship between the two companies is governed by
         an agreement expiring in 2009 which affords the Company a right of
         first refusal for all clinical trial and study work performed by Mylan.

2.       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
         maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September
         30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, cash equivalents were comprised of
         money market funds totaling $7,328 and $247,516, respectively.

         PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

         Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for
         maintenance, repairs, renewals and betterments that do not
         significantly prolong the useful lives of the assets are charged to
         expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed using an accelerated
         method for all classes of property and equipment. Asset useful lives
         have been estimated as seven years, five years, and ten years for
         furniture and fixtures, computer equipment and leasehold improvements,
         respectively. Upon retirement or sale, the cost of assets disposed of
         and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts
         and any resulting gain or loss is recorded.

         REVENUE RECOGNITION

         The Company recognizes revenue when all services have been rendered
         under a contract. The Company bills its customer throughout the
         duration of the contract and records progress billings as unearned
         revenue. Costs associated with contract completion are capitalized and
         recorded as project work-in-progress on the balance sheet until project
         completion. Upon project completion, unearned revenue and project
         work-in-progress are recorded as earned and incurred, respectively.

         ADVERTISING COSTS

         The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense
         approximated $45,000 and $142,000 for the nine months ended September
         30, 2001 and the year ended December 31, 2000, respectively.

         INCOME TAXES

         The Company has elected to be treated as an S-Corporation under the
         Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, taxable income is reportable on the
         individual income tax returns of the shareholder.

         RELATED PARTY

         The sole shareholder of Clinical and Pharmacologic Research, Inc. is an
         Officer and the Vice President Medical Director of Mylan Laboratories.

         CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMER

         The Company derives substantially all of its revenue and income from
         Mylan Laboratories, Inc., a related party and a leading generic
         pharmaceutical manufacturer headquartered in Morgantown, West Virginia.

          Mylan Laboratories, Inc.            100%                      (92%)


         As depicted above, the company is currently dependent on Mylan for the
         continued generation of revenue and income.

         COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

         Comprehensive income is comprised of two components, net income and
         other comprehensive income. There was no other comprehensive income
         during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 or the year ended
         December 31, 2000.

         FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

         The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash
         equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued
         expenses approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of
         these financial instruments.

         USE OF ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
         accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
         and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
         liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported
         amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods, and
         amounts reported in the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ
         from those estimates.

         RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133,
         "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as
         amended, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative
         instruments and hedging activities and requires recognition of all
         derivatives as either assets or liabilities measured at fair value. The
         accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the
         intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. SFAS No.
         133, as amended, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
         2000 and its adoption on January 1, 2001 did not have an effect on the
         Company's results of operations or its financial position because the
         Company does not currently hold any derivative instruments.

         In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations"
         ("SFAS 141") and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
         ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141, which supercedes Accounting Principles Board
         ("APB") Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 38,
         "Accounting for Preacquisition Contingencies of Purchased Enterprises",
         requires that all business combinations entered into after the
         effective date of July 1, 2001 to be accounted for by the purchase
         method, defines criteria for recognition of intangible assets apart
         from goodwill, and further defines disclosure requirements for business
         combinations. The Company does not expect this standard to have a
         significant impact on its financial position, results of operations and
         cash flows.

         SFAS 142, which replaces APB Opinion No. 17, "Intangible Assets",
         defines new accounting treatment for goodwill and other intangible
         assets. This standard eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other
         intangible assets that have indefinite lives, establishes a requirement
         that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives be tested
         annually for impairment, provides specific guidance on the process for
         this testing at the reporting unit level and requires disclosures of
         information about goodwill and other intangible assets in the years
         subsequent to their acquisition that was not previously required. SFAS
         142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001,
         except that goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001
         will be immediately subject to the new provisions. The Company does not
         expect this standard to have a significant impact on its financial
         position, results of operations and cash flows.

         In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the
         Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"). SFAS 144
         supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
         Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed of" ("SFAS 121") and
         amends APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting Results of Operations-Reporting
         the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business" ("APB 30").

         This statement develops one accounting model (based on the model in
         SFAS 121) for long-lived assets that are disposed of by sale, as well
         as addresses the principal implementation issues. It eliminates APB
         30's requirement that discontinued operations be measured at net
         realizable value or that entities include under "discontinued
         operations" in the financial statements amounts for operating losses
         that have not yet occurred. Additionally SFAS 144 expands the scope of
         discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with
         operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity
         and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in
         a disposal transaction. This statement is effective for fiscal years
         beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company does not expect this
         standard to have a significant impact on its financial position,
         results of operations and cash flows.

5.       INVESTMENT IN SMT LLC

         In August of 1999, the Company entered into an operating agreement with
         two individuals to create a corporation titled SMT LLC (the
         "Corporation"). The Company has a one-third investment interest in the
         corporation. The Corporation's sole asset is a motor vehicle purchased
         in April of 1999.

6.       401(k) SAVINGS PLAN

         The Company maintains a defined contribution savings plan under Section
         401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. This plan covers substantially all
         employees who meet minimum age and service requirements and allows
         participants to defer a portion of their annual compensation on a
         pre-tax basis. Company matching contributions are fifty percent of
         participant contributions up to a maximum of four percent of an
         employee's salary.

         For the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and the year ended
         December 31, 2000, the Company recorded contributions to the plan
         totaling approximately $14,000 and $19,000, respectively.

         In conjunction with the savings plan, the Company may elect to make a
         profit-sharing contribution. Any such election is made at the Company's
         sole discretion. The Company contributed $0 and $53,201 during the nine
         months ended September 30, 2001 and the year ended December 31, 2000,
         respectively.

7.       LEASE COMMITMENTS

         The Company leases its current facility and five vehicles under
         agreements that are classified as operating leases. The operating
         leases have initial terms that range from three to ten years. The
         Company also leases a copier and printers under one agreement with a
         five-year term. The Company classifies this lease as a capital lease.
         Amortization of the capital lease for both periods is included with
         depreciation expense. Future minimum payments, by year and in the
         aggregate, under capital and operating leases with remaining terms of
         one year or more, are as follows at September 30, 2001:

8.       STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLAN

         During 2000, the Company created the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan (the
         "Plan") to encourage increased effort to make the Company more
         successful and to provide an additional inducement for eligible
         individuals to remain with the Company by awarding such individuals an
         opportunity to acquire shares of the Company's Common Stock. Under the
         Plan, individuals meeting certain eligibility requirements are granted
         options to purchase Common Stock at the sole discretion of the Board of
         Directors. In September of 2000, the Board of Directors authorized
         15,000 shares for issuance under the Plan. The options immediately vest
         and are exercisable at any time following the grant date. The options
         remain exercisable for a period of ten years from the date of the
         grant. During 2000, the Company granted 3,529 stock options at an
         exercise price of $336. The Company recognized approximately $755,000
         in compensation expense during 2000 based on the intrinsic value of the
         options in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB)
         No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The number of
         granted, exercised, cancelled, and outstanding options for the periods
         ended September 30, 2001, and December 31, 2000, are as follows:

         The weighted average remaining contractual life on the outstanding
         options is 9.08 years at September 30, 2001.

         The fair value of each option granted in 2000 was estimated on the date
         of grant as $360 using the minimum value option pricing model as the
         Company has no history of stock price volatility, using the following
         assumptions:

         Expected dividend yield                    0%
         Risk-free interest rate                  5.7%
         Expected term                        10 years

9.       COMMITMENTS

         In August 2000, the Company entered into a commercial line of credit

         at the New York Prime Rate plus 0.5%. The Agreement states that
         interest payments are due monthly and principal is due upon creditor's
         demand. The Agreement does not mature until December of 2003. There are
         no amounts drawn on the line of credit at either September 30, 2001 or
         December 31, 2000.

10.      CONTINGENCIES

         claims that arise in the normal course of business. All such matters
         are subject to uncertainties that are not predictable with assurance.
         Management is currently not aware of any such matters that are
         outstanding.

11.      SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         outstanding at September 30, 2001 be purchased in exchange for $18,401
         in cash, the net book value of the assets.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Kendle International Inc. ("the Company") acquired substantially all of the
assets of Clinical and Pharmacologic Research, Inc. ("CPR") on January 29, 2002.
The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.
The Company has not yet quantified the purchase price allocations and,
therefore, the amounts allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible
assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been estimated for purposes of
these pro forma financial statements.

The total purchase price of approximately $18.1 million consisted of $8 million
in cash, 314,243 shares of the Registrant's Common Stock with a fair value of
approximately $4.1 million and a convertible note, the principal amount of which
is $6 million.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect
the Company's results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001
and the year ended December 31, 2000, as if the acquisition had occurred on
January 1, 2000 after giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments. The
unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the Company's
financial position as of September 30, 2001, as if the acquisition had occurred
on September 30, 2001 after giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared for comparative purposes only, do not purport to be indicative of what
the Company's operating results or financial position would have been had the
acquisitions actually taken place on January 1, 2000, or September 30, 2001,
respectively, and may not be indicative of future operating results or financial
position.

These statements have been prepared from the consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto of the Company as contained in the Form 10-Q for the nine
months ended September 30, 2001 and the Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2000 and the financial statements and the notes thereto of CPR included in
this report on Form 8-K/A and should be read in conjunction therewith.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS

1.       Pro Forma Adjustments (in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

The following adjustments were applied to the Company's historical statements of
operations and those of CPR to arrive at the pro forma consolidated financial
information.

Statement of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2001:

- -    To record the interest expense on the note payable totaling $171.

- -    To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments and the application
     of corporate income taxes to CPR's net income which would have been
     recorded if CPR had been a C corporation during the entire period
     presented, at an assumed statutory combined federal and state rate of 40%.

Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2000:

- -    To record the interest expense on the note payable totaling $228.

- -    To record the tax effect of the pro forma adjustments and the application
     of corporate income taxes to CPR's net income which would have been
     recorded if CPR had been a C corporation during the entire period
     presented, at an assumed statutory combined federal and state rate of 40%.

2.       Net (loss) income per Share

Net loss per basic share for the year ended December 31, 2000 and net income per
basic share for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 is computed using the
weighted average number of common shares for the year ended December 31, 2000
and the nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. Net loss per diluted
share for the

                                      F-21


year ended December 31, 2000 is computed excluding the weighted average number
of common equivalent shares outstanding because such common equivalents are
anti-dilutive. Net income per diluted share for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 is computed assuming conversion of common equivalents (including the
convertible note issued in connection with the acquisition). Assuming conversion
of the note, interest expense of $103, net of taxes, has been added back to net
income in calculating net income per diluted share. Differences between
historical weighted average shares outstanding used to compute per share amounts
result from the inclusion of shares issued in conjunction with the acquisitions
as if such shares were outstanding from January 1, 2000.
