          MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

     The information presented in this Annual Report to Stockholders for the 
year ended December 31, 1997 (the "Annual Report") contains forward-looking 
statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of 
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").  Such 
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those discussed 
below under "Disclosure Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and in the 
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 
("Form 10-K") under "Risk Factors", that could cause actual results to differ 
materially from those projected.  Because actual results may differ, readers 
are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

GENERAL

     GalaGen has broadened its focus to include nutritional products and is 
utilizing its expertise in its platform antibody technology to develop a 
portfolio of proprietary nutritional products, including dietary supplements, 
which incorporate its Proventra-TM- Brand Natural Immune Components.  These 
products will target needs of both consumers and healthcare professionals. 
GalaGen continues to develop oral pharmaceuticals that target life 
threatening and emerging pathogens. These antibodies used in nutritional and 
pharmaceutical products are food proteins that are derived from the milk 
collected in the first few milkings of a dairy cow after its calf is born.  
Using its proprietary procedures, the Company has produced antibodies that 
target specific pathogens infecting the human gastrointestinal tract, 
including bacteria and their toxins, parasites, fungi and viruses.  Because 
the Company's antibodies are derived from cows' milk, they do not represent 
new chemical compounds with uncertain toxicity, but rather their components 
are commonly found in dairy foods that are already widely consumed.  

     In August 1997, the Company announced that it was placing its Sporidin-G 
clinical trial on hold due to continuing decline in the patient population 
for the product's initial indication, AIDS-related CRYPTOSPORIDIUM PARVUM 
infection.  The decline was brought about by the effectiveness and increased 
use of new AIDS therapies, including protease inhibitors and earlier 
administration of combination therapy.

     In December 1997, the Company introduced Basics Plus, a dietary 
supplement product, in conjunction with its marketing and manufacturing 
partner, Lifeway Foods.  Basics Plus is the first product to emerge from the 
collaboration with Lifeway Foods and contains active beneficial kefir 
cultures and GalaGen's Proventra-TM- Brand Natural Immune Components.

     Diffistat-G, its pharmaceutical product in Phase II clinical 
development, is being developed for the treatment and prevention of 
antibiotic-associated diarrhea, a disease which annually affects more than 
400,000 patients in the United States.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, 1996 AND 1995

     GENERAL.  The net loss applicable to common stockholders decreased by 
$9,148,457, or 61.9%, in 1997 to $5,635,134 from $14,783,591 in 1996 and 
increased by $9,309,553, or 170.1%, in 1996 from $5,474,038 in 1995. The 
decrease in 1997 and increase in 1996 was due primarily to a one time 
non-cash charge to earnings in April 1996 of $7,296,844 for a preferred stock 
dividend, as described below, relating to the value of additional shares 
issued to holders of certain preferred stock upon conversion into Common 
Stock at the closing of the Company's initial public offering (the 
"Offering"), which occurred in April 1996.  Historical spending levels 


                                       1


may not be indicative of future spending levels.  The Company is continuing 
its nutritional and pharmaceutical product development activity, which is 
planned to include costs relating to research and development activity, 
small-scale manufacturing, clinical trial activity and market research. For 
these reasons, the Company believes its expenses and losses will increase 
before any material product revenues are generated.

    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES.  Expenses for research and development 
decreased $1,321,803, or 25.1%, in 1997 to $3,935,817 from $5,257,620 in 1996 
and increased $1,526,543, or 40.9%, in 1996 from $3,731,077 in 1995. The 
decrease in 1997 was due primarily to decreased clinical trial expenses 
associated with Sporidin-G of approximately $2,000,000 and decreased 
personnel and administration expenses of approximately $280,000 offset 
primarily by increased manufacturing expenses of approximately $440,000, 
increased clinical expenses for Diffistat-G of approximately $320,000 and 
increased nutritional products expense of approximately $200,000.  The 
increase in 1996 as compared to 1995 was due primarily to increased expenses 
associated with the Sporidin-G clinical trial as well as increased 
development, clinical and personnel expenses for the Company's other 
products, offset by a $300,000 license fee paid to Chiron Corporation in 1995 
in the form of Company stock.

     GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.  General and administrative 
expenses increased $76,642 or 4.1% in 1997 to $1,966,001 from $1,889,359 in 
1996 and decreased $132,840, or 6.6%, in 1996 from $2,022,199 in 1995. The 
increase in 1997 is due primarily to increased public reporting and 
shareholder relations expense of approximately $157,000 and increased 
insurance costs of approximately $68,000 offset by decreased outside 
consulting expense of approximately $83,000 and decreased deferred 
compensation expense of approximately $65,000. The decrease in 1996 compared 
to 1995 was due primarily to a decrease of $136,200 in deferred compensation 
expense (see Note 9 of Notes to Financial Statements).

     INTEREST INCOME.  Interest income was $448,322 in 1997, $605,548 in 1996 
and  $30,526 in 1995. The decrease in 1997 is attributable to the decreased 
level of investable funds.  The increase from 1995 to 1996 was due to the 
investment of funds received by the Company from the Offering.

     INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense was $181,638 in 1997, $945,316 in 
1996 and $506,709 in 1995. Interest expense for 1997 consisted primarily of 
line of credit interest expense of $91,679 (see Note 7 of Notes to Financial 
Statements) and convertible debt interest expense of $82,459 (see Note 8 of 
Notes to Financial Statements).  Interest expense for 1996 was due primarily 
to warrants valued at $768,064 which were issued to guarantors of a line of 
credit for the Company and to purchasers of the Company's promissory notes 
and to interest over a period of approximately three months on the 
convertible promissory notes (the "Convertible Promissory Notes") issued by 
the Company.  The Convertible Promissory Notes converted into Common Stock 
upon the closing of the Offering. Interest expense for 1995 related primarily 
to interest on the Convertible Promissory Notes.

     EXTRAORDINARY GAIN ON EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT. The extraordinary gain on 
extinguishment of debt of $605,421 in 1995 related to certain debt reduction 
settlements negotiated in connection with the termination of the Company's 
transgenics program (see Note 12 of the Notes to the Financial Statements).

     PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDEND.  The preferred stock dividend of $7,296,844 in 
1996 related to the value of additional Common Stock received by the holders 
of Convertible Promissory Notes, Series E and Series F-1 Preferred Stock upon 
the conversion of such securities into Common Stock at the closing of the 
Offering (the Convertible Promissory Notes converting first into Series D 
Preferred Stock which in turn converted immediately into Common Stock at the 
closing). The Convertible Promissory Notes and the Series D, Series E and 
Series F-1 Preferred Stock provided that their conversion prices be 
automatically adjusted to reflect the lower of their currently effective 
conversion price or 70% of the Offering price.


                                       2


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company was incorporated in March 1992. On July 24, 1992, Procor, the
Company's predecessor, was merged with and into the Company (the "Procor-GalaGen
Merger").  At the time of the Procor-GalaGen Merger, Procor was a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Land O'Lakes. Since the Company's inception through December 31,
1997, investments in the Company have totaled approximately $53.1 million,
including approximately $7.1 million of inter-company obligations payable to
Land O'Lakes which were forgiven and recorded as contributed capital at the time
of the Procor-GalaGen Merger, $17.9 million from the Offering (after deducting
underwriting discounts and offering expenses) and approximately $28.1 million
from private placements of equity and convertible debt and from conversion of
accrued interest on such debt and the exercise of stock options and warrants.
The Company has invested funds received in the Offering and these private
placements in investment-grade, interest-bearing obligations.

     Cash used in operating activities decreased by $83,664, or 1.4%, in 1997 
to $6,052,148 from $6,135,812 in 1996 and increased by $2,903,924, or 89.9%, 
in 1996 from $3,231,888 in 1995. Cash used in operations went primarily to 
fund operating losses and was offset slightly by changes in operating assets 
and liabilities.

     The Company invested $13,276 in 1997 and $7,498,343 in 1996 in 
available-for-sale securities.  The Company invested $215,320 in 1997 and 
$1,264,342 in 1996 in equipment and tenant improvements related to the 
Company's pilot plant manufacturing facility, the majority of which has been 
subsequently financed through the line-of-credit (see Note 7 of Notes to the 
Financial Statements). The Company invested $63,685 in 1997, $193,012 in 1996 
and $36,311 in 1995 in lab equipment, computer equipment and software and 
furniture used primarily to support the Company's operations.

     The Company's seven-year operating lease for manufacturing equipment is 
in effect through 2003 and requires future annual minimum payments of 
approximately $140,000.  Additionally the Company's five-year lease agreement 
with Land O'Lakes for specified manufacturing space is in effect through 
June 2001 and requires future annual minimum payments of approximately 
$86,000 (see Note 10 of the Notes to the Financial Statements).

     The Company anticipates that its existing resources and interest thereon 
will be sufficient to satisfy its anticipated cash requirements through 
approximately the first quarter of 1999. The Company's working capital and 
capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the 
progress of the Company's market research, product development and marketing 
and distribution for nutritional products in addition to the clinical trials, 
research and development programs and the timing of and cost of obtaining 
regulatory approvals and marketing activities for pharmaceutical products. 
The Company's capital requirements also will depend on the levels of 
resources devoted to the development of manufacturing capabilities, 
technological advances, the status of competitive products and the ability of 
the Company to establish strategic alliances to provide funding to the 
Company for research, development and marketing.

     The Company expects to incur substantial additional research and 
development and other costs, including costs related to clinical studies and 
marketing activities for both nutritional and pharmaceutical products. 
Capital expenditures may be necessary to obtain licensure of the existing 
pilot plant facility and to establish additional commercial scale 
manufacturing facilities. The Company will need to raise substantial 
additional funds for longer-term product development, manufacturing and 
marketing activities that may be required in the future. The Company's 
ability to continue funding its planned operations beyond the first quarter 
of 1999 is dependent upon its ability to generate product revenues or to 
obtain additional funds through equity or debt financing, strategic 
alliances, license agreements or from other financing sources. A lack of 
adequate revenues or funding could eventually result in the insolvency or 
bankruptcy of the Company. At a minimum, if adequate funds are not available, 
the Company may be required to delay or to eliminate expenditures for certain 


                                       3


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

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

     Certain of the Company's business systems may require updating to 
continue to function properly beyond 1999.  The Company believes that it will 
have adequate resources for this purpose and does not expect to incur 
significant expenditures to address this issue.

     All investments as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 have a contractual 
maturity of one year or less.

PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

     Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated 
primarily on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of three 
to seven years.

     At December 31, 1996, construction in progress consisted of leasehold 
improvements and manufacturing equipment in connection with the Company's 
pilot plant manufacturing facility.  The Company transferred the construction 
in progress to its respective asset account and began depreciation in the 
third quarter of 1997.   At December 31, 1997 and 1996, property, plant and 
equipment consisted of the following:

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS

     All research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred.

INCOME TAXES

     Income taxes are accounted for using the liability method. Deferred 
income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial 
reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.

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 amounts reported in the financial statements and 
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NET LOSS PER SHARE

     In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 
128, EARNINGS PER SHARE ("Statement 128").  Statement 128 replaced the 
calculation of primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and 
diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per share, basic 
earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants and 
convertible securities.  All earnings per share amounts for all periods have 
been presented, and where appropriate, restated to conform to Statement 128 
requirements.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

     The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of 
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED 
COMPENSATION ("Statement 123"), but applies Accounting Principles Board 
Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES ("APB 25"), and 
related interpretations in accounting for its stock plans.  Under APB 25, 
when the exercise price of stock options equals the market price of the 
underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

3.   MERGER

     In March 1992, GalaGen was incorporated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of 
its predecessor, Procor Technologies, Inc.("Procor"), a wholly-owned 
subsidiary of Land O'Lakes Inc. ("Land O'Lakes"), and issued 270 shares of 
its $.01 par value common stock to Procor for $1.23 per share. In May 1992, 
GalaGen sold 941,148 shares of its common stock to certain outside investors 
and future officers, directors, and advisors of GalaGen for $1.23 per share. 
Effective July 24, 1992, GalaGen was merged with Procor and GalaGen was the 
surviving entity. As part of this merger, the 13,541 shares of Procor's 
common stock held by Land O'Lakes were converted into 812,502 shares of $.01 
par value common stock of GalaGen. Additionally, the 270 shares of common 
stock of GalaGen issued to Procor were canceled and $7,127,720 of 
inter-company obligations owed to Land O'Lakes were forgiven and recorded as 
contributed capital.

4.   RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

     During 1992, the Company entered into the following agreements with Land 
O'Lakes:

PURCHASE AND SALE OF ASSETS AGREEMENT

     Land O'Lakes purchased from the Company all equipment, inventory, and 
certain other assets and assumed all current liabilities at book value, which 
approximated $1,636,000. The purchase price was paid by crediting against 
other indebtedness owed by the Company to Land O'Lakes.

ROYALTY AGREEMENT

      The Company will pay to Land O'Lakes a royalty on net receipts from any 
product, other than infant formula, which is based on existing technology or 
technology improvements, as defined by the agreement.  The Company will pay 
an additional royalty on net receipts from infant formula based on existing 
or improved technology and an additional royalty on net receipts from infant 
formula based on new technology, as defined by the agreement.  This agreement 
will continue until terminated by both parties.  Royalty payments range from 
one to two percent of net receipts.

LICENSE AGREEMENT

     The Company has licensed to Land O'Lakes the rights to use the Company's 
existing technologies and technology improvements, as defined by the 
agreement, for Land O'Lakes' use in animal products, functional foods and 
infant formula. The Company received a lump sum license fee. The Company has 
agreed not to compete for fifteen years in the area of animal products and 
functional foods based on milk and colostrum based immunoglobulin technology. 
Land O'Lakes has agreed not to compete for fifteen years in the areas of 
prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs regulated by the Food and Drug 
Administration. The term of this agreement is perpetual.

     In March 1997, Land O'Lakes granted a five-year license, an amendment to 
the license above, in the area of functional foods to use existing technology 
and future technology improvements in the development, formulation, 
manufacture, marketing, distribution and sale of kefir-based products, as 
defined in the granted license.  In consideration of granting the Company 
this license, Land O'Lakes will receive a royalty of five percent from food 
components or ingredients sold by the Company to be included in a kefir-based 
product and one percent of net receipts from a kefir-based finished product 
sold by the Company.

     In March 1998, the Company and Land O'Lakes signed an amended and restated
license agreement in which the Company has significantly broadened its rights to
develop and market functional foods.   Under the restated license agreement, the
Company can use, improve, exploit, license or share existing technology,
technology improvements and new technologies, as defined, in all areas except
under certain "reserved food" and "first refusal food product" categories.

SUPPLY AGREEMENT

     The Company has entered into an agreement with Land O'Lakes whereby the 
Company will purchase and Land O'Lakes will supply, at their option, all of 
the Company's commercial requirements for colostrum and milk. As part of this 
agreement, Land O'Lakes will provide expertise in dairy herd selection, 
on-farm management, membership relations and procurement to the Company for 
the manufacture of antibody material. The agreement will last for ten years 
and Land O'Lakes, at its sole discretion, has the option to extend the 
agreement for an additional ten years.


                                       16


MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT

     The Company has entered into an agreement with Land O'Lakes whereby the 
Company may purchase services from Land O'Lakes for certain administrative 
and research and development activities.  This agreement will enable the 
Company to access expertise, on an as-needed basis, from Land O'Lakes.  The 
agreement terminated on December 31, 1992, but has been renewed annually and 
is currently extended through December 31, 1998.  The Company was charged 
approximately $442,000, $682,000 and $641,000 in 1997, 1996 and 1995, 
respectively, in accordance with the Master Services Agreement.

STRATEGIC ALLIANCE LETTER OF INTENT

     The Company and Land O'Lakes have entered into a letter of intent for good
faith discussions designed to lead to a definitive agreement regarding a
strategic alliance to provide research, development, regulatory and product
support, manufacturing, marketing, sales and distribution for certain functional
food products.

PROMISSORY NOTE

     The Company issued a promissory note to Land O'Lakes for $4,000,000 as 
part of the merger. This note had an interest rate of five percent and was 
due December 31, 1992. Payment of $3,000,000 plus accrued interest of $43,333 
was made upon the sale of the Series A preferred stock. Land O'Lakes extended 
the remaining $1,000,000 note for consideration of $100,000. The $1,000,000, 
accrued interest of $50,959 and the $100,000 extension fee were paid in 1993.

     Subsequent to 1992, the Company has entered into other related party 
agreements as noted below:

     In December 1995 and January 1996, Land O'Lakes and certain investment 
funds controlled by IAI purchased 169,230 and 76,923 shares, respectively, of 
Series E preferred stock at $3.35 per share.  

     In January 1996, the Company entered into a $2.7 million line of credit 
agreement with a commercial bank, which expired with the closing of the 
Company's initial public offering (the "Offering").  Loans under this line of 
credit were guaranteed by six parties and the guarantee was collateralized by 
letters of credit posted by them in the aggregate amount of $2.7 million.  In 
consideration for the guarantees and letters of credit posted by these 
parties, the Company issued warrants to purchase an initial aggregate of 
162,011 shares of common stock at $7.00 per share. In connection with this 
transaction Land O'Lakes guaranteed $500,000 of the $2.7 million line of 
credit, and in exchange received a warrant to purchase 30,002 shares of 
common stock at $7.00 per share. See Note 9.

     In January 1996, the Company issued two convertible promissory notes for 
$375,000 and $125,000 to two investment funds controlled by IAI.  The notes 
became due on completion of the Offering. The notes were convertible into 
Series E preferred stock at the option of the holder.  In connection with 
these notes, the Company issued warrants to purchase 30,001 shares which are 
identical to the line of credit warrants described above.  The notes have 
been repaid.

     In  June 1996, the Company entered into a five-year lease agreement with 
Land O' Lakes for specified space within the Land O' Lakes facility in 
connection with the Company's pilot plant manufacturing facility.  See Note 
10.

     In December 1996, the Company entered into an equipment operating lease 
which was guaranteed by Land O'Lakes.  See Note 10.


                                       17


5.   REVERSE STOCK SPLIT

     On January 19, 1996, the Board approved a reverse stock split of 
3.6923-for-1 for the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company's 
stockholders approved this reverse stock split in March 1996. Certain 
information in the financial statements with respect to the common stock and 
to the conversion prices and ratios of the preferred stock have been adjusted 
to reflect this change. The reverse stock split had no effect upon the 
numbers of shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding (as opposed to 
the conversion prices of the preferred stock and the numbers of shares of 
common stock into which the preferred stock converted).

6.   STOCK

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

     GalaGen Inc. consummated the Offering on April 1, 1996, which consisted 
of 2,000,000 shares of common stock at a $10 per share price to the public.  
All of the Company's preferred stock mandatorily converted into common stock 
immediately prior to the closing of the Offering.  The 2,500,000 shares of 
Series A preferred stock, 1,234,748 shares of Series B preferred stock and 
551,000 shares of Series C preferred stock that were outstanding prior to the 
Offering were converted into 677,063, 543,413 and 248,758 shares of common 
stock, respectively, upon the closing of the Offering. The $8,275,000 of  
Convertible Promissory Notes to investors, plus accrued interest, that were 
outstanding prior to the Offering converted into shares of Series D preferred 
stock and simultaneously into 1,434,495 shares of common stock upon the 
closing of the Offering.  The 338,461 shares of Series E preferred stock and 
34,287 shares of Series F stock outstanding prior to the Offering were 
converted into 178,568 and 85,717 shares, respectively, of common stock upon 
the closing of the Offering.

PREFERRED STOCK DIVIDEND

     The Series D preferred stock, Series E preferred stock and Series F-1 
preferred stock converted into common stock at 70% of the Offering price. 
These reductions in the conversion prices to 70% of the Offering price were 
valued at $7,296,844 and recorded as a non-cash preferred stock dividend to 
arrive at the net loss available to holders of common stock in the 
calculation of net loss per share.

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

     In March 1996, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan 
whereby 270,833 shares of common stock have been reserved.  All employees who 
have met the service eligibility requirements are eligible to participate and 
may direct the Company to make payroll deductions of one to 10 percent of 
their compensation during a purchase period for the purchase of shares under 
the plan. Participants may purchase up to 5,000 shares of common stock for a 
given calendar year provided the fair market value of the stock is not more 
than $25,000 (determined at the beginning of each purchase period).  The plan 
provides a participating employee the right, subject to certain limitations, 
to purchase the Company's common stock at a price equal to the lower of 85% 
of the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the first day, or 
the last day, of the applicable purchase period.  The first purchase period 
commenced on July 1, 1996 and ended on December 31, 1996, of which 3,642 
shares of common stock were issued to employees for $13,548. In May 1997, the 
Employee Stock Purchase Plan was amended by stockholders to have two six 
month purchase periods beginning on January 1 and July 1 of each year.  In 
1997, 8,279 shares of common stock were purchased of which 5,009 shares were 
issued in 1997.

7.   LINE-OF-CREDIT

     In June 1997, the Company established a $2,000,000 line-of-credit for 
fixed assets with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation ("Transamerica") 
which extends through June 1998. Terms of the line-of-credit 


                                       18


include monthly payments over four years equal to 2.5837% of each advance 
with a final balloon payment of 12.5% at the end of the four-year period. The 
line-of-credit is secured by the Company's fixed assets. Transamerica 
received a warrant for 40,000 shares of common stock granted at the fair 
market value on the date of grant. The warrant was valued at approximately 
$79,000 and will be amortized to interest expense over the expected term of 
the outstanding line-of-credit. The Company drew approximately $1,319,000 of 
the line-of-credit in 1997, of which $1,162,248 is outstanding at December 
31, 1997.

8.   CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

     In November 1997, the Company raised $1,500,000 through the private 
placement sale of 6% convertible debentures (the "Debentures") to three 
institutional investors pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 
1933.  The principal and interest of the Debentures can be converted into 
shares of the Company's common stock at 82.5% of the lowest closing bid price 
of the Company's common stock three days prior to conversion. One-third of 
the Debentures can convert to common stock upon the effective date of 
registration, one-third after five months from the closing date and the 
remaining one third twelve months after the closing date or nine months if 
the price of the common stock does not average at least $2.00 per share in 
the eighth month after closing.  An aggregate maximum of 1,400,000 discounted 
shares of common stock (the "Discounted Shares") can be issued upon the 
conversion of the Debentures, with each investor owning at any given time a 
maximum of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. 
If there remains any unconverted principal and accrued interest due to all 
the Discounted Shares being issued, the Company has the obligation to repay 
the investors, in the aggregate, a maximum principal of $500,000.  The 
Debentures automatically convert into the Discounted Shares eighteen months 
from the closing date.  Five-year warrants were issued to the investors to 
purchase, in the aggregate, 200,000 shares of common stock at 110% of the 
market value of the common stock on the closing date.  The value of the 
warrants plus the value of the discount of the Discounted Shares was 
$500,182, which the Company is amortizing over the term of the Debentures. In 
1997, $72,000 was amortized and recorded as interest expense. A deferred 
expense was recorded for $119,081, which represents costs associated with 
closing the Debentures. These deferred expenses are being amortized until the 
Debentures are converted into Discounted Shares.  In 1997, $9,378 was 
amortized and recorded as an expense.  In February and March 1998, $499,500 
of Debenture principal plus accrued interest was converted into 718,543 
shares of common stock.  The net carrying value of the Debentures 
approximates fair market value.  In connection with this private placement, 
the Company has reserved 1,129,062 shares of common stock for issuance.

9.   OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

STOCK OPTION PLAN

     The Company has established a 1992 Stock Plan (the "1992 Plan") and a 
1997 Incentive Plan (the "1997 Plan"), under which both incentive and 
non-qualified options may be granted, which have reserved 880,210 and  
1,250,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for issuance.  The Company 
uses these plans as an incentive for employees, directors and technical 
advisors.  Stock awards in the aggregate of 100,000 shares of common stock 
may also be granted under the 1997 Plan. Options are granted at fair market 
value as determined on the date of grant and normally vest over three to five 
years.

     Options expire in five years and three months to ten years from the 
grant date. Fully vested and exercisable options were 355,349, 189,986 and  
161,426 as of December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The weighted 
average exercise prices for the fully vested and exercisable options as of 
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were $4.86, $3.80 and $2.63, respectively.  
In May 1997, the Company granted options for 20,000 shares of common stock to 
two consultants for services provided, of which 15,000 are fully vested.  In 
August 1997, a consultant was granted a stock award, based upon the value of 
the common stock at the date of grant, from the 1997 Plan of 1,493 shares of 
common stock in exchange for services provided.

WARRANTS

     In January 1993, the Company granted a warrant to purchase 13,541 
shares of the Company's common stock at $12.00 per share to an investment 
banking firm for financial advisory services.  This warrant expires May 1998.


                                       20


     In June 1993, the Company granted a warrant to purchase 9,479 shares of 
the Company's common stock at $.18 per share to a contract research 
organization for services rendered in 1993. Expense was recorded for the 
difference between the exercise price and fair market value of the common 
stock, as determined by the Board of Directors. This warrant expires December 
1998.

     In October 1993, the Company granted a warrant to purchase 20,312 shares 
of the Company's common stock at $18.46 per share to each of a board member 
and an investor in return for their guarantee for the Company's line of 
credit. These warrants expire October 1998.

     In connection with the June 1994 to October 1995 Convertible Promissory 
Notes (the "Notes") issuance of $8,275,000, each Note holder received a 
warrant, exercisable at $11.07 per share, to purchase that number of shares 
of common stock equal to 20% of the principal amount of such holder's Note 
divided by $11.07. The Company granted warrants to purchase 149,384 shares of 
the Company's common stock. These warrants expire five years from the date of 
grant, which range from June 1999 to October 2000.

     In March 1995, Chiron was issued warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of 
the Company's Series F preferred stock for which the Company was paid 
$150,000. The Company issued the warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of 
Series F preferred stock to Chiron as follows: (i) warrant to purchase 17,144 
shares of Series F-1 preferred stock, exercise price of $17.50 per share 
(pre-Offering) or $24.00 per share (post-Offering); (ii) warrant to purchase 
42,856 shares of Series F-2 preferred stock, exercise price of $18.70 per 
share (pre-Offering) or $27.00 per share (post-Offering); (iii) warrant to 
purchase 60,000 shares of Series F-3 preferred stock, exercise price of 
$25.00 per share (pre-Offering) or $33.00 per share (post-Offering); and (iv) 
warrant to purchase 80,000 shares of Series F-3 preferred stock, exercise 
price of $25.00 per share (pre-Offering) or $36.00 per share (post-Offering). 
If, after the Company's Offering, the market value (as defined in the 
purchase agreement for the warrants) of a share of common stock is less than 
the stated post-Offering exercise price of any such warrant, the exercise 
price is reduced to such per share market value and the number of shares of 
common stock covered by the warrant are increased proportionately. Based upon 
the warrant agreements, the ceiling price for the warrants described in 
clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above were set at the closing of the Offering at 
$10.11, $9.24 and $10.08, respectively, per share of common stock.  Chiron 
exercised the warrant described in clause (i) above in March 1996 which 
converted into 42,860 shares of common stock at the closing of the Company's 
Offering.  Assuming the remaining three warrants were exercised in full on 
December 31, 1997, 3,117,672 shares of the Company's common stock would have 
been issued upon such exercise based upon the twenty day average of the 
average of the high and low closing market price, as reported by Nasdaq 
National Market, prior to December 31, 1997 of $1.93 per share.  The warrants 
expire on the earlier of six years from the date of issuance or 120 days 
after the warrant holder receives notice from the Company of the occurrence 
of certain defined milestone events. See Note 10.

     In January 1996, the Company granted  warrants to purchase 162,011 
shares of common stock at $7.00 per share to six parties, one of which is a 
company which has a representative on the Company's Board which received a 
warrant to purchase 30,002 shares of common stock, in return for their 
guarantee on the Company's $2.7 million line of credit.  The Company also 
granted warrants to purchase 7,500 and 22,501 shares of the Company's common 
stock at $7.00 per share to certain investment funds associated with a 
representative on the Company's Board in return for their issuance of two 
convertible promissory notes totaling $500,000. These warrants expire 
February 2001.  The difference between the Offering price and exercise price 
of these warrants multiplied by the number of warrants, plus the intrinsic 
value of the warrants was $768,064 which was recorded as interest expense in 
1996.

     In March 1997, the Company issued warrants to purchase 10,000 shares of 
common stock, granted at the fair market value on the date of grant, for 
certain services to be rendered.  The warrant expires in March 2002.


                                      21


     In connection with the line-of-credit, Transamerica received a five-year 
warrant for 40,000 shares of common stock granted at the fair market value on 
the date of grant. The intrinsic value of the warrant is approximately 
$79,000 and is being amortized to interest expense over the expected term of 
the outstanding line-of-credit.  See Note 7.

     In conjunction with the issuance of the Debentures, the Company issued 
warrants to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company's common stock at 110% of 
the market value of the common stock on the closing date of the Debentures.  
The intrinsic value of these warrants is $182,000, which is being amortized 
as interest expense.  These warrants expire in December 2002.  See Note 8.

     In December 1997, the Company issued five-year warrants to financial 
consultants to purchase 25,000,  40,000 and 75,000 shares of common stock at 
$2.50, $3.00 and $6.50, respectively, which was greater than the market value 
of the common stock at the date of grant.  These warrants have an intrinsic 
value of $50,450 which is being amortized over the term of the consulting 
relationship.  The warrant for 75,000 shares of common stock will vest upon 
the Company's common stock trading for ten consecutive days, from the time of 
grant until June 30, 1998, at or greater than $6.50 per share.

STOCK OPTION AND WARRANT AGREEMENT REVISIONS

     In March 1994, the Company canceled all common stock option and warrant 
agreements that were issued in 1993 that had exercise prices of $12.00 per 
share and $18.46 per share and issued new stock option and warrant agreements 
with the same terms and conditions except that the grant prices were $7.38 
per share and $11.07 per share, respectively.

     In August  1996, the Company canceled all common stock option 
agreements, totaling 57,715 shares of common stock under the Plan and 18,958 
shares of common stock outside of the Plan, with the exception of officer and 
director options, that were issued with a grant price greater than the fair 
market value at the date of re-grant and issued new stock option agreements 
with the same terms and conditions except that the grant prices were $5.375 
per share.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

     The Company has elected to follow APB 25 and related Interpretations in 
accounting for its employee stock options because, as discussed below, the 
alternative fair value accounting provided for under Statement 123, requires 
use of option valuation models that were not developed for use in valuing 
employee stock options.  Under APB 25, if the exercise price of the Company's 
employee stock options equals the market price of the underlying stock on the 
date of grant, no compensation expense is recognized.

     Pro forma information regarding net loss and loss per share is required 
by Statement 123, and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for 
its employee stock options under the fair value method of Statement 123.  The 
fair value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the 
Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average 
assumptions for 1997, 1996 and 1995: risk-free interest rates approximating 
6.2%; volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common 
stock ranging from .3 to .527 and a weighted-average expected life of the 
option of 5 years. The weighted average fair value of the options granted in 
1997 and 1996 is $2.16 and $2.54 per share, respectively, as computed as 
described above.

     The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in 
estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting 
restrictions and are fully transferable.  In addition, option valuation 
models require the input of highly subjective assumptions.  Because the 
Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different 
from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input 
assumptions can


                                      22


materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the 
existing models may not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the 
fair value of its employee stock options.

     For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the 
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.  The 
Company's pro forma information is as follows:



                                             1997          1996          1995
                                        -----------   ------------   -----------
                                                            
Pro forma amortized expense ..........  $   435,589   $    165,762   $     1,763
Pro forma net loss applicable
  to common stockholder. .............  $(6,070,723)  $(14,949,353)  $(5,475,801)
Pro forma net loss per common share,
  Basic and Diluted...................  $     (0.84)  $      (2.26)  $     (2.88)



The pro forma effect on net loss for 1997, 1996 and 1995 is not 
representative of the pro forma effect on net loss in future years because it 
does not take into consideration pro forma compensation expense related to 
grants made prior to 1995.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION

     In December 1995, the Company canceled certain stock option agreements 
within the Plan and certain stock options that were outside of the Plan that 
had grant prices ranging from $7.38 per share to $11.07 per share and issued 
new stock option agreements with the same terms and conditions except that 
the grant prices were $3.69 per share. The Company recorded $1,657,000 as 
deferred compensation for the difference between the new grant price per 
share of common stock and the fair market value of the common stock per share 
on the date of grant, as determined by the board of directors, multiplied by 
the total number of options affected.  In December 1997 and 1996, the Company 
adjusted the deferred compensation balance by $35,800 and $261,200 to account 
for terminated employee options that were not vested. The deferred 
compensation is amortized ratably over the vesting period of the options.  In 
1997, 1996 and 1995, $273,864, $340,066 and $476,266 was amortized, 
respectively.

     The remaining deferred compensation is expected to be amortized as 
follows:


                                                     
                1998............................        $185,400
                1999............................          82,400
                2000............................           2,004
                                                        --------
                                                        $269,804
                                                        --------
                                                        --------



10.  COMMITMENTS

     The Company has commitments under the following agreements:

LICENSE AGREEMENTS

     In March 1993, Nestec, an affiliate of Nestle' Ltd., granted a license 
to the Company, including the right to grant sublicenses, relating to the 
production and use of bovine anti-rotavirus and anti-E. Coli antibodies 
derived from milk and colostrum for therapeutic and prophylactic 
applications. The license is exclusive in North America and semi-exclusive in 
the rest of the world and obligates the Company to pay royalties on products 
incorporating the licensed technology.


                                      23


     In September 1993, Institut Pasteur granted the Company an exclusive 
worldwide license to certain applications relating to human passive immunity. 
Conversely, the Company granted Institut Pasteur an exclusive worldwide 
license relating to certain technology regarding active immunity. Both 
license agreements expire upon the earlier of ten years from the date of the 
first commercial sale arising out of the use of these certain technologies or 
upon the expiration of the last to issue licensed patent on a 
country-by-country basis.

     In March 1995, the Company entered into a License and Collaboration 
Agreement with Chiron Corporation involving the licensing of Chiron adjuvant 
technology and a collaboration to research and develop passive immune 
therapies using bovine antibodies for certain products. Pursuant to this 
Agreement, Chiron has granted an exclusive worldwide license for certain of 
Chiron's proprietary adjuvant technology to the Company for which the Company 
issued 17,143 shares of its Series F-1 preferred stock to Chiron. 
Additionally, Chiron has been granted certain rights to exclusively market a 
certain product for which the Company was paid $100,000.  See Note 9.

     In November 1997, the Company entered into a product development 
agreement with Taste Technologies, Inc. to collaborate on the creation of 
nutritional products containing GalaGen antibodies.  Based upon their 
contributions Taste Technologies is entitled to receive royalties on certain 
net sales.

     The royalties on the above agreements range from one-half to five 
percent, depending on the volume, of certain net sales.

OTHER AGREEMENTS

     A three-year service agreement that began in 1996 for specified raw 
material preparation assistance requires minimum payments of approximately 
$24,000 in 1998 and $14,000 in 1999.

     The Company entered into a clinical service agreement with a contract 
research organization in June 1997. This agreement requires payment over the 
length of the clinical trial that is anticipated to be completed in 1998.  
The agreement requires a minimum payment of approximately $36,000 in 1998.

LEASE COMMITMENTS

     The Company leases certain office equipment under an operating lease.

     During June 1996, the Company entered into a five-year lease agreement 
with Land O'Lakes for specified space within the Land O'Lakes facility in 
connection with the Company's pilot plant manufacturing facility.  The lease 
calls for annual payments of approximately $87,000 and can be extended for 
additional one-year periods at the option of the Company.

     In December 1996, the Company entered into an operating lease with 
Cargill Leasing Corporation for $835,393 of manufacturing equipment for the 
Company's pilot plant facility.  Lease payments of $10,990 per month plus tax 
will continue for a period of seven years with the Company's option to extend 
for an additional 12 months.  The rental percentage was computed on a 
weighted average of the 30-day LIBOR rate and the rate on five-year U.S. 
Treasury Notes. The lease is guaranteed by Land O'Lakes.


                                      24


     The total lease expense was $199,808, $3,133 and $9,547, respectively, 
for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996, and 1995. The future minimum 
annual lease payments are as follows:

11.  INCOME TAXES

     Prior to the effective date of the merger with Procor, GalaGen's losses 
were utilized by Land O'Lakes in its consolidated tax return.  Subsequent to 
the effective date of the merger and through December 31, 1997, GalaGen has 
operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income of approximately 
$33,500,000 which begin to expire in 2007.  No benefit has been recorded for 
such loss carryforwards, and utilization in future years may be limited, if 
significant ownership changes have occurred.

     Components of deferred tax assets are as follows:



                                                                   December 31

12.   EXTRAORDINARY ITEM

      In July 1995, the Company terminated its fund raising efforts for its 
wholly owned subsidiary, Altra Bio Inc., and sold the Corporation to a former 
officer for the nominal consideration of $1.00. Altra Bio had no book value 
at the time of the sale and, accordingly, no gain or loss was recognized in 
the transaction. As part of the terminated fund raising efforts, the Company 
negotiated debt reduction settlements with certain research collaborators and 
a vendor in the aggregate amount of $605,421.  The effect on the December 31, 
1995 net loss per share was $.32 for basic and diluted net loss per share.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


Board of Directors
GalaGen Inc.


     We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of GalaGen Inc. (a 
development stage company) as of December 31, 1997, and 1996, and the related 
statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for 
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997, and for the 
period from November 17, 1987, (inception) to December 31, 1997. These 
financial statements are the responsibility of GalaGen's management. Our 
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based 
on our audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to 
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free 
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, 
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and 
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall 
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a 
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present 
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of GalaGen Inc. at 
December 31, 1997 and 1996 and the results of its operations and cash flows 
for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1997 and for the 
period from November 17, 1987, (inception) to December 31, 1997, in 
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

          During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Company has sold the 
following equity securities pursuant to exemptions from registration under 
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").  All such 
sales were made in reliance upon the exemptions from registration provided 
under Sections 3(b) and 4(2) of the Securities Act.

          1.   In March 1997, the Company issued warrants to purchase 10,000 
shares of Common Stock, granted at the fair market value on the date of 
grant, for certain investor relations services to be rendered by CTC, Inc.  
The warrant is exercisable one year from the date of grant and expires in 
March 2002.

          2.   In June 1997, the Company established a $2,000,000 line of 
credit with Transamerica Business Credit Corporation ("Transamerica") which 
extends through June 1998.  In connection with this transaction, Transamerica 
received a warrant for 40,000 shares of Common Stock granted at the fair 
market value on the date of grant.  The warrant was valued at approximately 
$79,000 and will be amortized to interest expense over the expected term of 
the outstanding line of credit. The warrant is immediately exerciseable and 
expires in June 2002.  

          3.   In November 1997, the Company raised $1,500,000 through the 
private placement sale of 6% convertible debentures (the "Debentures") to CPR 
(USA) INC., Libertyview Plus Fund and Libertyview Fund, LLC, all 
institutional investors.  The Malachi Group, Inc. acted as an agent in this 
transaction  The principal and interest of the Debentures can be converted 
into shares of the Company's Common Stock at 82.5% of the lowest closing bid 
price of the Company's Common Stock three days prior to conversion.  
One-third of the Debentures can convert to Common Stock upon the effective 
date of registration, one-third after five months from the closing date and 
the remaining one third twelve months after the closing date or nine months 
if the price of the Common Stock does not average at least $2.00 per share in 
the eighth month after closing.  An aggregate maximum of 1,400,000 discounted 
shares of Common Stock  (the "Discounted Shares") can be issued upon the 
conversion of the Debentures, with each investor owning at any given time a 
maximum of 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock.  
If there remains any unconverted principal and accrued interest due to all 
the Discounted Shares being issued, the Company has the obligation to repay 
the investors, in the aggregate, a maximum principal of $500,000.  The 
Debentures automatically convert into the Discounted Shares eighteen months 
from the closing date.  Five-year warrants were issued to the investors to 
purchase, in the aggregate, 200,000 shares of Common Stock at 110% of the 
market value of the Common Stock on the closing date.  The value of the 
warrants plus the value of the discount of the Discounted Shares was 
$500,182, which the Company is amortizing over the term of the Debentures.  
In February and March 1998, $499,500 of Debenture principal plus accrued 
interest was converted into 718,543 shares of Common Stock.  In connection 
with this private placement, the Company has reserved 1,129,062 shares 
of Common Stock for issuance.  These warrants expire in December 2002.

          4.   In December 1997, the Company issued five-year warrants to 
CLARCO Holdings, which is associated with the Malachi Group, Inc., for 
financial services rendered, to purchase 25,000, 40,000 and 75,000 shares of 
Common Stock at $2.50, $3.00 and $6.50, respectively, each of which was 
greater than the market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant.  A 
portion of the warrant for 40,000 shares was issued as partial payment for 
services rendered in connection with the private placement of the Debentures. 
These warrants have an intrinsic value of $50,450 which is being amortized 
over the term of the consulting relationship.  The warrants for 25,000 and 
40,000 shares of Common Stock are immediately exercisable.  The warrant for 
75,000 shares of Common Stock will vest upon the Company's Common Stock 
trading for ten consecutive days, from the time of grant until June 30, 1998, 
at or greater than $6.50 per share.  These warrants expire in December 2002.
