                    (date of incorporation) to June 30, 2002



NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated balance sheets of BioDelivery Sciences International,
Inc. and its  subsidiary  (collectively  "the Company") as of June 30, 2002, and
the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In
the opinion of management,  all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments)  necessary to present  fairly the  financial  position,  results of
operations and cash flows at June 30, 2002 and for all periods  presented,  have
been made.  The condensed  consolidated  balance sheet at December 31, 2001, has
been derived from the Company's  audited  consolidated  financial  statements at
that date.

Certain  information  and footnote  disclosures  normally  included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles
have  been  condensed  or  omitted  pursuant  to  the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission ("SEC") rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended  December 31, 2001,  included in
the  Company's  2001 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the SEC on April 1,
2002 ("2001 Annual Report").

The results of operations  for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, are
not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim
period or for the full fiscal year.

In March 2002,  the Company  approved a one for 4.37 reverse  stock  split.  The
financial statements have been restated to reflect the reverse stock split.


NOTE 2 - PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Since  inception,  the Company has financed its operations  principally from the
sale of equity securities,  grant funding,  and a line of credit.  Historically,
the  Company's  subsidiary  financed  its  operations  principally  from  funded
research  arrangements.  The Company has not generated  revenue from the sale of
any  product or from any  licensing  arrangement  since  inception.  The Company
intends on  financing  its  research  and  development  efforts  and its working
capital  needs from existing and new sources of  financing.  For  instance,  the
Company was granted  approximately $2.7 million from the National  Institutes of
Health to fund specific  research efforts to be conducted by the Company through
June 2004 of which $883,972 has been received to date. In June 2002, the Company
completed its public  offering,  which  consisted of 2,000,000  Units ($5.25 per
unit),  each comprised of one share of common stock and one  redeemable  Class A
Common Stock purchase warrant. While there can be no assurance that such sources
will provide adequate funding for the Company's operations,  management believes
such sources will be available to the Company.

NOTE 3 - NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In July 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial  Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business  Combinations,  and SFAS
142,  Goodwill and  Intangible  Assets.  SFAS 141 is effective  for all business
combinations  completed  after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for the year
beginning January 1, 2002; however certain provisions of that Statement apply to
goodwill and other  intangible  assets  acquired  between July 1, 2001,  and the
effective date of SFAS 142. The Company determined that the adoption of SFAS 142
did not have any impact on the Company's financial statements.

In July 2001,  the FASB  issued SFAS No. 143,  Accounting  for Asset  Retirement
Obligations.  This statement  addresses  financial  accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs.  This Statement  applies to all entities.  It
applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets
that result from the acquisition,  construction,  development  and/or the normal
operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. This
Statement  is  effective  for  financial  statements  issued  for  fiscal  years
beginning  after June 15,  2002.  The  Company is  evaluating  the impact of the
adoption of this standard and has not yet  determined  the effect of adoption on
its financial position and results of operations.

In August 2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,  Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for the  impairment or disposal of  long-lived  assets and  supersedes
FASB Statement No. 121,  Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and
for  Long-Lived  Assets to Be disposed Of. The  provisions  of the statement are
effective  for  financial  statements  issued for fiscal years  beginning  after
December 15, 2001. The Company adopted this standard  effective January 1, 2002,
which did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

The effects of all  dilutive  securities  outstanding  have been  excluded  from
Common Stock equivalents because their effect would be anti-dilutive.


NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has received  notification  of a potential  claim for a finder's fee
and a lawsuit has been filed by Michael Pennessi d/b/a SSP  Consultants,  who is
not affiliated with the Company, arising out of an introduction to a predecessor
entity in 2000. Settlement discussions have been conducted.  The Company intends
to  vigorously  defend  this  litigation.  It is the  Company's  belief that the
potential claim is neither material nor meritorious.


NOTE 6 - LINE OF CREDIT

At December 31, 2001,  the Company had secured a revolving line of credit from a
financial institution, which had an interest rate of prime plus 2.0%. During the
six months  ended June 30,  2002,  the Company  continued to draw on the line of
credit to fund  operations.  As of June 30, 2002, the line of credit  terminated
and was satisfied in full with proceeds from the sale of Common Stock.

NOTE 7 - NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH GRANT

In 2001,  the National  Institutes  of Health (NIH)  awarded the Company a Small
Business  Innovation  Research Grant (SBIR),  which will be utilized in research
and development  efforts.  NIH has formally  awarded the Company a 2001 grant of
$883,972.  Additionally,  this award  refers to funding  levels of $814,398  and
$989,352 that the Company expects to be awarded in 2002 and 2003,  respectively,
subject to availability and satisfactory progress of the project. Therefore, the
Company expects to receive a total of approximately  $2.7 million related to its
initial  application  for the grant  through  June 2004.  The  Company  incurred
approximately  $458,000 and $-0- of costs related to this  agreement for the six
months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

During the  six-month  period  ended June 30,  2002,  the Company  has  received
approximately  $189,000 and recognized  revenue of  approximately  $442,000 from
this  grant.   As  awarded  on  September  19,  2001,  the  grant  provided  for
reimbursement of or advances for future research and development  efforts.  Upon
receiving  funding  under the grant and  utilizing  the funds as  specified,  no
amounts are refundable.

As of June 30,  2002,  the  Company has  recognized  the full  funding  level of
$883,972 related to the 2001 award, inclusive of a $215,940 receivable from NIH.


NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES

In March  2002,  a new tax law  changed  the  carryback  period from two to five
years.  This allowed the Company to carryback its net operating  losses to 1997,
which  resulted  in an  additional  benefit of $55,744.  The  Company  initially
recognized  a tax benefit of $95,843  during the three month  period ended March
31,  2002 based on a  preliminary  evaluation  of the new tax law.  The  Company
subsequently revised its estimate of recoverable income taxes, which resulted in
the reduction of income tax receivable by $40,879.

Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition  and  Plan  of
Operations

The following  discussion and analysis  should be read in  conjunction  with the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere
in this Form 10-QSB. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements
that involve  risks and  uncertainties.  The  Company's  actual  results and the
timing of certain events could differ  materially  from those discussed in these
forward-looking  statements as a result of certain factors,  including,  but not
limited to, those set forth herein and elsewhere in this Form 10-QSB.

The Company is a development-stage  company and we expect to continue to perform
research and development  activities in furtherance of our business strategy and
product development.


For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2002 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30,
2001

Sponsored Research Revenue. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and
2002, we reported approximately $28,000 and $458,000, respectively, of sponsored
research  revenues.  With the exception of grants by the National  Institutes of
Health and funding provided to us through various collaborative  agreements,  we
have not derived any revenues from our operations, technologies or products.

Research and  Development.  Research and development  expenses of  approximately
$754,000 and $910,000 were incurred during the six-month  periods ended June 30,
2001  and  2002,  respectively.  Research  and  development  expenses  generally
include:  salaries for key scientific  personnel,  research  supplies,  facility
rent, lab equipment  depreciation,  a portion of overhead operating expenses and
other costs directly  related to the  development  and application of the Bioral
cochleate drug delivery technology.

General  and  Administrative  Expense.  General and  administrative  expenses of
approximately $695,000 and $401,000 were incurred in the six-month periods ended
June 30, 2001 and 2002,  respectively.  These expenses are principally comprised
of legal  and  professional  fees and other  costs  including  office  supplies,
conferences,  travel costs, salaries, website update and development,  and other
business  development costs. The amount recognized in the period ended June 2001
includes $384,000 for litigation settlement costs.

Interest Income (Expense).  Interest income (expense) for the periods ended June
30, 2001 and 2002 was  principally  comprised  of earnings  from  invested  cash
offset by  interest  expense on the line of credit,  notes  payable  and capital
leases payable.

Income Taxes.  While net operating  losses were  generated  during the six month
period ended June 30, 2002,  we did not recognize  any benefit  associated  with
these losses,  as all related  deferred tax assets have been fully reserved for.
However,  in March 2002, a new tax law changed the carryback  period from two to
five years,  which allowed us to carryback prior losses to 1997,  resulting in a
tax benefit of $55,744.  Financial  Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109
provides  for the  recognition  of deferred  tax assets if  realization  of such
assets is more likely than not.  Based upon available  data,  which includes our
historical operating performance and our reported cumulative net losses in prior
years, we have provided a full valuation  allowance against our net deferred tax
assets as the future realization of the tax benefit is not sufficiently assured.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

From inception through June 30, 2002, we raised approximately $10.1 million, net
of issuance costs, through equity financings.  At December 31, 2001, we had cash
and cash equivalents  totaling  approximately  $76,000. At June 30, 2002, we had
approximately  $7.7 million cash and cash  equivalents.  The  operations  of our
predecessor,   BioDelivery  Sciences,  Inc.,  prior  to  our  acquisition  of  a
controlling  interest on October 10, 2000 and subsequent  merger,  were financed
primarily through funded research  agreements.  In 2001, the National Institutes
of Health awarded to us a Small Business Innovation Research Grant (SBIR), which
will continue to be utilized in our research and development efforts.

NIH has  formally  awarded us a 2001 grant of $883,972,  of which we  recognized
approximately 50% in 2001 and the remainder was recognized through June 2002. As
of June 30, 2002,  we have  received all but  $215,940,  which was recorded as a
receivable  from NIH.  Additionally,  this  award  refers to  funding  levels of
$814,398  and  $989,352  that  we  expect  to  be  awarded  in  2002  and  2003,
respectively,  subject to availability and satisfactory progress of the project.
Therefore, we expect to receive a total of approximately $2.7 million related to
our initial application for the grant through June 2004. The grant is subject to
provisions for monitoring set forth in NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts  dated
February  24,  2000,  specifically,   the  NIAID  Policy  on  Monitoring  Grants
Supporting  Clinical  Trials and  Studies.  If NIH  believes  that  satisfactory
progress is not  achieved,  the 2002 and 2003 amounts noted above may be reduced
or eliminated.

Working capital/deficit at December 31, 2001 was $1,185,268,  which reflects our
legal claim settlement liability,  our line of credit and our liability incurred
under our research  agreement  with the  University of Medicine and Dentistry of
New Jersey,  for which payments were deferred.  Working capital at June 30, 2002
was $6,621,743,  which reflects the net proceeds from our June 2002 common stock
offering.

We used  $617,209 of cash for  operations in the six months ended June 30, 2002,
which reflects increased research and development and administrative costs. On a
pro forma  basis  (BioDelivery  Sciences,  Inc.  combined  with us) we have used
approximately  $2.2 million of cash for operations since inception  through June
30,  2002,  net of  sponsored  research  proceeds  received  since  inception of
approximately $8.1 million.

Since our inception through June 30, 2002, we have incurred  approximately  $2.9
million of research and development  expenses.  Additionally,  during the period
March 28, 1995 (date of BioDelivery Sciences,  Inc.'s incorporation) through the
acquisition of a controlling interest in BioDelivery Sciences, Inc., we incurred
approximately $6.8 million of research and development expenses.

We have incurred  significant net losses and negative cash flows from operations
since our  inception.  As of June 30,  2002,  we had an  accumulated  deficit of
approximately $6.0 million.

We anticipate that cash used in operations and our investment in facilities will
increase  significantly  in the future as we research  and  further  develop our
technology.  While  we  believe  further  application  of our  Bioral  cochleate
technology to other drugs and  nutraceuticals  will result in license agreements
with  manufacturers of generic and  over-the-counter  drugs, as well as the more
common nutraceutical applications,  our plan of operations in the next 18 months
is focused on our further development of the Bioral cochleate  technology itself
and its use in a limited number of  applications.  Such plans do not include the
marketing, production or sale of FDA approved products.


                                       11



We believe that our existing  cash and cash  equivalents  will be  sufficient to
finance our planned  operations  and capital  expenditures  through at least the
next 12 to 18 months.  We may consume  available  resources  more  rapidly  than
currently   anticipated,   resulting  in  the  need  for   additional   funding.
Accordingly, we may be required to raise additional capital through a variety of
sources, including:

     o    the public equity market;
     o    private equity financing;
     o    collaborative arrangements;
     o    grants;
     o    public or private debt; and
     o    redemption and exercise of warrants

There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on favorable
terms,  if at all. If adequate  funds are not  available,  we may be required to
significantly  reduce or  refocus  our  operations  or to obtain  funds  through
arrangements  that may require us to relinquish  rights to certain of our drugs,
technologies or potential markets, either of which could have a material adverse
effect on our business,  financial  condition and results of operations.  To the
extent  that  additional  capital  is  raised  through  the  sale of  equity  or
convertible  debt  securities,  the issuance of such securities  would result in
ownership dilution to our existing stockholders.

During June 2002,  our existing  line of credit  terminated  and the balance was
repaid from the proceeds of our common stock offering.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2001, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Financial  Accounting Standards (SFAS) 141, Business  Combinations,  and SFAS
142,  Goodwill and  Intangible  Assets.  SFAS 141 is effective  for all business
combinations  completed  after June 30, 2001. SFAS 142 is effective for the year
beginning January 1, 2002; however certain provisions of that Statement apply to
goodwill and other  intangible  assets  acquired  between July 1, 2001,  and the
effective date of SFAS 142. The Company determined that the adoption of SFAS 142
did not have any impact on the Company's financial statements.

In July 2001,  the FASB  issued SFAS No. 143,  Accounting  for Asset  Retirement
Obligations.  This statement  addresses  financial  accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs.  This Statement  applies to all entities.  It
applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets
that result from the acquisition,  construction,  development  and/or the normal
operation of a long-lived asset, except for certain obligations of lessees. This
Statement  is  effective  for  financial  statements  issued  for  fiscal  years
beginning  after June 15,  2002.  The  Company is  evaluating  the impact of the
adoption of this standard and has not yet  determined  the effect of adoption on
its financial position and results of operations.

In August 2001,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 144,  Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. This statement addresses financial accounting and
reporting for the  impairment or disposal of  long-lived  assets and  supersedes
FASB Statement No. 121,  Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived  Assets and
for  Long-Lived  Assets to Be Disposed Of. The  provisions  of the statement are
effective  for  financial  statements  issued for fiscal years  beginning  after
December 15, 2001. The Company adopted this standard  effective January 1, 2002,
which did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

                           PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

We have  received  notification  of a potential  claim for a finder's  fee and a
lawsuit has been filed by Michael  Pennessi  d/b/a SSP  Consultants,  who is not
affiliated with us, arising out of an introduction to BioDelivery Sciences, Inc.
in 2000.  Settlement  discussions  have been conducted.  We intend to vigorously
defend this  litigation.  It is our belief that the  potential  claim is neither
material nor meritorious.


Item 2. Changes In Securities

The net offering  proceeds to the Company after deducting the offering  expenses
described  above  was  $8,449,309.  From  June 25,  2002  until  June 30,  2002,

term  certificates  of  deposit.  There  were  no  payments  made  to  officers,
directors, and persons owning more than 10% of the Company's securities.
