8 HALSEY DRUG CO., INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Halsey Drug Co., Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2001 have been made. The results of operations for the six months period ended June 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2001. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of June 30, 2001, the Company had working capital deficiency of approximately $6,044,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $93,641,000. The Company incurred a loss of approximately $4,703,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2001. Until such time as the Company successfully develops and commercializes new finished dosage products and active pharmaceutical ingredients, of which there can be no assurance, the Company will continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow. The Company believes that the final payment under the Product Purchase Agreement of $3.5 million received on July 10, 2001 combined with the $3.5 million balance available under the Watson Term Loan will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital requirements only for the next six (6) months. The Company's efforts to obtain the approval of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration ("DEA") for a registration to import raw materials for use in production, including contesting any resulting third-party opposition proceeding, and the continuing development of the Company's licensed technologies will continue through 2004. In order to fund continued operations, satisfy the Galen Bridge Loan and to fund the continued development of the Company's licensed technologies, which includes the completion of planned capital improvements to the Company's Culver, Indiana and Congers, NY facilities and the processing of the registrations and approvals required from the DEA (including funding the legal fees and related expenses in connection with any opposition proceeding relating to the Company's request for a raw material import registration)during the period from fiscal 2002 through and including fiscal 2004, the Company estimates that it will be required to obtain additional sources of financing or a third party equity investment of approximately $15.0 million. The Company is currently seeking additional funds through transactions related to its business lines as well as private financings. There can be no assurance, however, that such additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to obtain such financing or equity investment may require the Company (i) to delay or cease the continued development of its licensed technologies and the completion of planned capital expenditures, (ii) to obtain funds through arrangements with third parties on terms that may require the Company to relinquish rights to its licensed technologies which the Company would otherwise pursue on its own or that would dilute the Company's stockholders and/or (iii) to significantly scale back or terminate operations. An extended delay or a cessation of the Company's continuing development efforts relating to its licensed technologies or delays in obtaining required DEA approvals, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

The loan is secured by a first lien on all of the Company's assets, senior to the lien securing all other Company indebtedness, carries a floating rate of interest equal to prime plus two percent and matures on March 31, 2003. NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCIES The Company currently is a defendant in several lawsuits involving product liability claims. The Company's insurance carriers have assumed the defense for all product liability and other actions involving the Company. The final outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined at this time, and accordingly, no adjustment has been made to the consolidated financial statements. 9

11 SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 VS SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 NET PRODUCT REVENUES The Company's net product revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2001 of $9,928,000 represents a decrease of $2,289,000 (18.7%) as compared to net product revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $12,217,000. During both the six month periods ending June 30, 2001 and 2000, the Company recognized 5,000,000 of product development revenues associated with the sale of certain product rights to Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The decrease in product sales was due to the inability of the Company to obtain certain raw materials during the six months ended June 30, 2001. The Company believes that these raw materials will become available in the later half of the year. On an ongoing basis, the Company expects to generate revenues from the development and manufacture of both finished dosage and active pharmaceutical ingredients ("API's"), and then partnering with others for the marketing and distribution of these products. COST OF MANUFACTURING For the six months ended June 30, 2001, cost of manufacturing decreased $945,000 to $7,847,000 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $8,792,000. This decrease is primarily attributable to 1) reduced costs associated with decreased sales and 2) the elimination of manufacturing overhead expenses from the closure of the Company's Brooklyn, New York facility in March 2001 SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were 30.3% and 26.2%, respectively. Overall these expenses in the first six months of 2001 decreased $189,000 over the same period in 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to the elimination of the Company's outside sales department during the second quarter of 2000. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were 6.2% and 5.5 %, respectively. The Company's research and development program is concentrating its efforts in three areas. First, the Company is continuing development efforts relating to certain API's. The Company currently manufactures two API's and has seven others under development. Second, the Company is proceeding with the development of products, apart from those obtained from Barr Laboratories, for submission to the FDA. The Company expects the submission of 7 ANDA supplements or amendments to the FDA during fiscal 2001 each of which relate to the site transfer of existing ANDAs from the Company's former Brooklyn, New York facility to its Congers, New York facility. Third, the Company is performing the necessary regulatory steps to effect the transfer of the products obtained from Barr Laboratories in April, 1999 to the Company. The Company initially has identified 8 of the products for which it will devote substantial effort in seeking approval from the FDA for manufacture and sale. The Company estimates that certain of these Barr Products will be available for sale in the fourth quarter of 2001. NET INCOME (LOSS) For the six months ended June 30, 2001, the Company had net loss of $4,703,000 as compared to a net loss of $3,137,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000. Included in the results for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was interest expense of $1,965,000 and amortization of deferred debt discount and private offering costs of $1,161,000 as compared to $1,894,000 and $1,222,000, respectively, for the year earlier period. Included in results for the six months ended June 30, 2000 was a tax benefit of $296,000 from the settlement of a income tax refund claim originally submitted in 1996. Additionally, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of equipment of $128,000 in 2000. 11

12 THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 VS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 NET PRODUCT REVENUES The Company's net product revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2001 of $1,962,000 represents a decrease of $7,104,000 (78.4%) as compared to net product revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2000 of $9,066,000. This decrease is primarily a result of the recognition of $5,000,000 in the three month period ended June 30, 2001 versus $5,000,000 in the three month period ended June 30, 2000 of product development revenues associated with the sale of certain product rights to Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Additionally, product sales decreased because the Company was unable to obtain certain raw materials during the three months ending June 30, 2001. The Company believes that these raw materials will become available in the later part of the year. On an ongoing basis, the Company expects to generate revenues from the development and manufacture of both finished dosage and active pharmaceutical ingredients ("API's"), and then partnering with others for the marketing and distribution of these products. COST OF MANUFACTURING For the three months ended June 30, 2001, cost of manufacturing decreased by approximately $1,799,000 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2000. The decrease for 2001 is attributable to both reduced costs associated with decreased sales and the elimination of manufacturing overhead expenses from the closure of the Company's Brooklyn, New York facility in March 2001. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 were 68.9% and 17.3%, respectively. The decrease of $221,000 is due primarily to elimination of the Company's outside sales department during the second quarter of 2000. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 was 16.0% and 3.1%, respectively. The Company's research and development program is concentrating its efforts in three areas. First, the Company is continuing development efforts relating to certain API's. The Company currently manufactures two API's and has seven others under development. Second, the Company is proceeding with the development of products, apart from those obtained from Barr Laboratories, for submission to the FDA. The Company expects the submission of 7 ANDA supplements or amendments to the FDA during fiscal 2001 each of which relate to the site transfer of existing ANDAs from the Company's former Brooklyn, New York facility to its Congers, New York facility. Third, the Company is performing the necessary regulatory steps to effect the transfer of the products obtained from Barr Laboratories in April, 1999 to the Company. The Company initially has identified 8 of the products for which it will devote substantial effort in seeking approval from the FDA for manufacture and sale. The Company estimates that certain of these Barr Products will be available for sale in the fourth quarter of 2001. NET INCOME (LOSS) For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company had a net loss of $4,591,000 as compared to net income of $945,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Included in the results for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was interest expense of $1,019,000 and amortization of deferred debt discount and private offering costs of $580,000 as compared to $993,000 and $616,000, respectively, for the year earlier period. Included in results for the three months ended June 30, 2000 was a tax benefit of $296,000 from the settlement of a income tax refund claim originally submitted in 1996. Additionally, the Company recorded a gain on the sale of equipment of $118,000 in 2000. 12

13 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At June 30, 2001, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $975,000 as compared to $697,000 at December 31, 2000. The Company had working capital deficiency at June 30, 2001 of $6,044,000 as compared to a working capital deficiency of $5,061,000 at December 31, 2000. During the period from May 1997 through July 1997, the Company borrowed approximately $3 million from Mylan Laboratories, Inc. pursuant to five unsecured, demand promissory notes. The advances made by Mylan Laboratories, Inc. were part of a proposed investment by Mylan Laboratories, Inc. in the Company, including the proposed purchase of the Company's Culver, Indiana facility as well as partial tender offer for the Company's common stock. The Company used the proceeds of these borrowings for working capital. As of July 6, 2001, the entire indebtedness and any outstanding accrued interest has been satisfied in full in the form of product deliveries to Mylan. In addition to the other strategic alliance transactions with Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ("Watson") completed on March 29, 2000, the Company and Watson executed a Loan Agreement providing for Watson's extension of a $17,500,000 term loan to the Company (the "Watson Term Loan"). The Watson Term Loan is funded in installments upon the Company's request for advances and the provision to Watson of a supporting use of proceeds relating to each such advance. As of August 6, 2001, $14 million had been advanced by Watson to the Company under the Watson Term Loan. The Watson Term Loan is secured by a first lien on all of the Company's assets, senior to the liens securing all other Company indebtedness, carries a floating rate of interest equal to prime plus two percent and matures on March 31, 2003. As of July 31, 2001, a portion of the net proceeds of the Watson Term Loan were used to satisfy in full bridge loans made by Galen Partners to the Company during 2000, to satisfy the Company's payment obligations under the Settlement Agreement with the landlord of its Brooklyn, New York facility, to fund capital improvements and for working capital. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Product Purchase Agreement with Watson dated March 29, 2000 (the "Product Purchase Agreement"), on July 10, 2001 Watson remitted $3,500,000 to the Company representing the final installment for the doxycycline monohydrate product purchased by Watson from the Company. The proceeds of this installment as well as the remaining net proceeds of the Watson Term Loan will, in large part, be used to complete the upgrades to the API manufacturing facility of Houba, Inc., the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, to complete the upgrades to the Company's Congers, New York leased facilities, and for working capital to fund continued operations. Pursuant to the terms of the Core Products Supply Agreement with Watson, Watson was required to purchase and pay for on a quarterly basis a minimum of $3,060,000 for products supplied by the Company under such Agreement. For the three quarters ending December 31, 2000, Watson had made an advance payment of approximately $4,402,000 as required under the terms of the Core Products Supply Agreement to be applied against future product purchases under such Agreement. The advance payments and any additional advance payments made by Watson under the Core Products Supply Agreement will require that the Company supply Watson with a like amount of products without additional payments from Watson at such time. On August 8, 2001, the Company and Watson executed an amendment to the Core Products Supply Agreement (the "Core Products Amendment") providing (i) for a reduction of Watson's minimum purchase requirements from $3,060,000 to $1,500,000 per quarter, (ii) for an extension of Watson's minimum purchase requirements from the quarter ending September 30, 2001 to quarter ending September 30, 2002, (iii) for Watson to recover previous advance payments made under the Core Products Supply Agreement in the form of the Company's provision of products having a purchase price of up to $750,000 per quarter (such credit amount to be in excess of Watson's $1,500,000 minimum quarterly purchase obligation), and (iv) for the Company's repayment to Watson of any remaining advance payments made by Watson under the Core Products Supply Agreement (and which amount has not been recovered by product deliveries by the Company to Watson as provided in Subsection (iii) above) in two (2) equal monthly installments on October 1, 2002 and 13

14 November 1, 2002. The Company has issued and outstanding 10% convertible subordinated debentures in the principal amount of $2,500,000 issued in August 1996 and which matured on August 6, 2001 (the "1996 Debentures"). The Company and Galen Partners III, L.P. and certain of its Affiliates (collectively, the "Galen Group") have agreed in principle to the terms of a proposed bridge loan to be made by the Galen Group to the Company in the principal amount of $2,500,000 to be used to retire and satisfy in full the outstanding 1996 Debentures (the "Galen Bridge Loan"). While the definitive loan documents required to complete the Galen Bridge Loan are in the process of being prepared, it is contemplated that the Galen Bridge Loan will bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and be secured by a lien on all the Company's assets, junior to the security interest granted to Watson under the Watson Term Loan but senior to the security interest granted to the holders of the Company's 5% convertible subordinated debentures issued in March, 1998 and May, 1999. The Galen Bridge Loan Note will be convertible into common stock at a conversion price equal to the trading average of the Company's common stock for the 20 days preceding the closing date. It is also contemplated that in consideration for the extension of the Galen Bridge Loan, the Company will issue to the Galen Group common stock purchase warrants to purchase an aggregate of 187,500 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price equal to the 20 day trading average of the Company's common stock for the 20 days preceding the closing of the Galen Bridge Loan. The Galen Bridge Loan warrants are contemplated to be substantially identical to those issued in the Company's Debenture and Warrant Offerings completed in March, 1998 and May, 1999. It is anticipated that the Galen Bridge Loan will have a maturity date of December 31, 2001. Until such time as the Company successfully develops and commercializes new finished dosage products and active pharmaceutical ingredients, of which there can be no assurance, the Company will continue to incur operating losses and negative cash flow. The Company believes that the final payment under the Product Purchase Agreement of $3.5 million received on July 10, 2001 combined with the $3.5 million balance available under the Watson Term Loan will be sufficient to satisfy the Company's working capital requirements only for the next six (6) months. The Company's efforts to obtain the approval of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration ("DEA") for a registration to import raw materials for use in production, including contesting any resulting third-party opposition proceeding, and the continuing development of the Company's licensed technologies will continue through 2004. In order to fund continued operations, satisfy the Galen Bridge Loan and to fund the continued development of the Company's licensed technologies, which includes the completion of planned capital improvements to the Company's Culver, Indiana and Congers, NY facilities and the processing of the registrations and approvals required from the DEA (including funding the legal fees and related expenses in connection with any opposition proceeding relating to the Company's request for a raw material import registration)during the period from fiscal 2002 through and including fiscal 2004, the Company estimates that it will be required to obtain additional sources of financing or a third party equity investment of approximately $15.0 million. The Company is currently seeking additional funds through transactions related to its business lines as well as private financings. There can be no assurance, however, that such additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, if at all. Failure to obtain such financing or equity investment may require the Company (i) to delay or cease the continued development of its licensed technologies and the completion of planned capital expenditures, (ii) to obtain funds through arrangements with third parties on terms that may require the Company to relinquish rights to its licensed technologies which the Company would otherwise pursue on its own or that would dilute the Company's stockholders and/or (iii) to significantly scale back or terminate operations. An extended delay or a cessation of the Company's continuing development efforts relating to its licensed technologies or delays in obtaining required DEA approvals, will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of operations. 14
