See accompanying notes to financial statements. -4- 7 NASTECH PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1 -- GENERAL The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements, including the notes thereto, as of and for the six months ended December 31, 1996. The information furnished in this report reflects all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. NOTE 2 -- PUBLIC OFFERING The Company completed a public offering of 1,380,000 shares of common stock at $14.00 per share in February, 1997. The proceeds to the Company of $17,469,000 was net of direct expenses of the offering totaling $1,851,000. In connection with this public offering, the Company has agreed to issue to the representatives of the underwriters warrants to purchase in the aggregate up to 69,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Representatives' Warrants") at an exercise price per share equal to 120% of the public offering price per share. The Representatives' Warrants are exercisable for a period of four years commencing January 24, 1998. The holders of the Representatives' Warrants will have no voting, dividend or other stockholder rights until the Representatives' Warrants are exercised. The Company has granted the Representatives certain registration rights related to the Representatives' Warrants. NOTE 3 -- INVENTORIES At June 30, 1997, inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first- in, first- out basis) or market and consists of raw materials. NOTE 4 -- NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE Net income per common and common equivalent share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period and the net additional number of shares which would be issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, assuming that the Company used the proceeds received to purchase additional shares at market value. For the six and three months ending June 30, 1997, the effect of stock options and warrants is not included because it would be anti-dilutive. NOTE 5 -- INCOME TAXES At June 30, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $5,300,000 for income tax purposes, available to reduce future taxable income, expiring from 2000 through 2012. Federal income taxes normally provided for income have been offset by the effects of the reduction of the valuation allowance for the six and three months ended June 30, 1996. -5- 8 ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this Item are forward-looking statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause the Company's actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results. Those include, among others, risks associated with the Company's business strategy, product development, plans concerning the commercialization of products, certain financial information and other statements that are not historical facts. The Company is engaged in the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of nasally administered forms of prescription and over-the-counter pharmaceuticals that are currently delivered in oral, injectable or other dosage forms. The nasal delivery of certain pharmaceuticals can enable more rapid systemic absorption, lower required dosages, quicker onset of desired effect, and painless, convenient patient self-administration. In December 1991, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ("BMS") received marketing approval from the FDA for a nasal formulation of Stadol NS(TM), a narcotic analgesic, which was sublicensed to BMS by the Company. Since 1992, the Company received royalties from BMS, and these royalties represent a significant portion of revenues for the Company. The Company is aware that Stadol NS(TM) may be classified by the FDA as a scheduled drug, which could negatively affect future sales by BMS and royalties to the Company. In November 1996, the Company received FDA marketing clearance for Nascobal(TM), its vitamin B-12 nasal gel. In July 1997, the Company entered into an exclusive licensing agreement in the U.S. with Schwarz Pharma, Inc. and anticipates the launch of Nascobal(TM) in the U.S. by January, 1998. The Company will receive royalties on domestic sales of Nascobal(TM), including a minimum royalty in 1998, and a manufacturing profit on its transfer of the product to Schwarz Pharma Inc. The Company's pipeline includes nine additional drugs, five of which are being developed under collaborative agreements with other pharmaceutical companies. In the past, the Company's product development strategy has generally been to seek strategic alliances in order to minimize the risk, time and cost typically associated with the early stages of commercializing a family of pharmaceuticals. The Company believes it is now able to leverage its product development experience and broad product pipeline to pursue internally funded development projects. The Company believes that postponing the establishment of strategic alliances until later stages of product development will allow the Company to negotiate more favorable collaborative agreements and retain product rights. Therefore, the Company intends to commit significant financial resources to research, development and sales and marketing with the goal of achieving greater economic benefit from product sales. On February 11, 1997, the Company changed its year end from June 30 to December 31. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Six Months Ended June 30, 1997 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Revenues. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $423,000 to $2,643,000, or 19%, more than such revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1996. This increase was due to decreases in license fee, royalty and research income, which for the six months ended June 30, 1997 decreased by $161,000 to $1,946,000, or 8%, less than such income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 which were more than offset by an increase in interest income. The license fee, royalty and research income decrease primarily was due to a decrease in research income of $150,000. Royalty income received from BMS for the current six-month period increased by $21,000 to $1,929,000, from such income for the similar period in 1996. Interest income for the current six-month period increased by $584,000 to $697,000, or 517%, compared to such income for the similar period in 1996 due to an increase in the amount of excess funds invested from proceeds received from the 1997 public offering and exercise of warrants from the 1993 offering. Research and development expense. In the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company continued to conduct pharmaceutical and pharmacological research and assemble the technical and reference data required to gain -6- 9 marketing approval from the appropriate regulatory agencies for nine new drug products. Research and development expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $1,065,000 to $1,524,000, or 232%, over such expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Such increase was due to the execution of the Company's strategy to accelerate development of its nasal pharmaceutical formulations. Royalties expense. Royalties expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $6,000 to $945,000, or 1%, from such expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996. Such increase was due to the increase in royalties paid by the Company to the University of Kentucky Research Foundation ("UKRF") in connection with sales of Stadol NS(TM) by BMS. Pursuant to a separate license agreement between the Company and UKRF, the Company pays UKRF royalties based on royalty income received by the Company from BMS. Accordingly, royalties expense payable to the UKRF increases or decreases approximately in proportion to royalty income received from BMS. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $664,000 to $757,000, or 714%, as compared to the 1996 period primarily as a result of expenses associated with the planned launch of the Company's Nascobal(TM) product later this year. As a result of the licensing agreement with Schwarz Pharma, Inc. noted above, however, the Company anticipates that sales and marketing expense will decrease during the remainder of 1997. Sales and marketing costs also include expenses incurred related to development of the Company's collaborative agreements. General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $274,000 to $685,000, or 67% over such expense for the six months ended June 30, 1996 due to increased staffing costs and other support costs associated with the accelerated development of the Company's nasal pharmaceutical formulations and strategic planning. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1996 Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $348,000 to $1,503,000, or 30%, more than such revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1996. This increase was due to increases in license fee, royalty and research income, which for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $10,000 to $1,108,000, or 1%, more than such income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 and by an increase in interest income. Royalty income received from BMS for the current three-month period increased by $43,000, or 4%, to $1,100,000, from such income for the similar period in 1996. Interest income for the current three-month period increased by $338,000 to $395,000, or 593%, compared to such income for the similar period in 1996 due to an increase in the amount of excess funds invested from proceeds received from the 1997 public offering and exercise of warrants from the 1993 offering. Research and development expense. In the three months ended June 30, 1997, the Company continued to conduct pharmaceutical and pharmacological research and assemble the technical and reference data required to gain marketing approval from the appropriate regulatory agencies for nine new drug products. Preclinical and clinical research and development expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $730,000 to $935,000, or 356%, over such expense for the three months ended June 30, 1996. Such increase was due to the execution of the Company's strategy to accelerate development of its nasal pharmaceutical formulations. Royalties expense. Royalties expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $20,000 to $541,000, or 4%, from such expense for the three months ended June 30, 1996. Such increase was due to the increase in royalties paid by the Company to the UKRF in connection with sales of Stadol NS(TM) by BMS. Pursuant to a separate license agreement between the Company and UKRF, the Company pays UKRF royalties based on royalty income received by the Company from BMS. Accordingly, royalties expense payable to the UKRF increases or decreases approximately in proportion to royalty income received from BMS. Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $518,000 to $587,000, or 751%, as compared to the 1996 period primarily as a result of expenses associated with the planned launch of the Company's Nascobal(TM) product later this year. As a result of the licensing agreement with Schwarz Pharma, Inc. noted above, however, the Company anticipates that sales and marketing expense will decrease during the remainder of 1997 until another product in its pipeline is ready for commercialization. Sales and marketing costs also include expenses incurred related to development of the Company's collaborative agreements. -7- 10 General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 increased by $101,000 to $346,000, or 41% over such expense for the three months ended June 30, 1996 due to increased staffing costs and other support costs associated with the accelerated development of the Company's nasal pharmaceutical formulations and strategic planning. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At June 30, 1997, the Company's liquidity included cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $27.3 million compared to $11.5 million at December 31, 1996. These amounts consisted primarily of the funds received from the recent 1997 public offering and the exercise of warrants outstanding from the Company's December 1993 public offering. Royalties and fees receivable at June 30, 1997, consists principally of royalty income receivable from BMS. The Company anticipates that the availability of funds provided by the net royalties received from BMS as well as the liquidity provided by the public offerings noted above will be used for (i) research and development, including clinical trials, (ii) capital expenditures, principally for manufacturing, (iii) license or acquisition of products and technologies for product development and (iv) working capital and other general corporate purposes. At June 30, 1997, the Company had working capital of $27.3 million. Management anticipates that its current cash position, together with cash generated from operations will provide adequate funds for the Company's anticipated needs, including working capital, through 1998. Based upon the anticipated future financing requirements of the Company, management expects that the Company may, from time to time, engage in additional financings of a character and in amounts to be determined. The foregoing Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains various "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act which represent the Company's intentions, expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including, but not limited to, statements regarding management's expectations with respect to FDA approval of new products, technology and product development milestones, the ability of the Company to leverage its product development and negotiate favorable collaborative agreements, the commencement of sales and the sufficiency of the Company's cash flow for the Company's future liquidity and capital resource needs. These forward looking statements are qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements. -8- 11 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6 - EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a) The following documents are filed as part of this report: EXHIBIT NUMBER 10J LICENSE AND SUPPLY AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN NASTECH PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANY INC.

(b) Schwarz agrees to initiate purchases of Nascobal Units and Nascobal samples hereunder by issuing Nastech purchase orders not less than 60 days prior to the required delivery date set forth therein. Nastech agrees to accept any order issued in accordance with this Section 4.1(b) which specifies quantities reasonably consistent with those set forth in the purchase forecasts for such Quarter and to meet the delivery dates specified thereon. All purchase orders hereunder shall be on Schwarz's standard purchase order form (a copy of which has been delivered to Nastech) and shall be directed to Nastech at the address set forth below. The terms and conditions of purchase enumerated on the reverse side of such standard purchase order form shall prevail over any inconsistent or conflicting language as may exist on invoices, confirmation or order acknowledgment forms of Nastech, provided, however, that in the event any terms -7- 9 thereof are in conflict, or are inconsistent with any terms of this Agreement, the terms and conditions hereof shall prevail. Nastech agrees that, in order to maximize the remaining shelf life of all reagents supplied under this Agreement, it shall not produce Nascobal Units for delivery to Schwarz until a purchase order therefor has been received from Schwarz.

Nastech will bear all the costs of labeling Nascobal so as to appropriately display the Schwarz name provided Schwarz supplies all the appropriate graphics, designs, logos and related and appropriate artwork, provided that such labeling costs will reasonably approximate Nastech's existing labeling costs.

No consent shall be necessary if the recall or withdrawal is required by the FDA or other governmental authority.

(a) Nastech shall indemnify, defend and hold Schwarz (and its directors, officers, employees, and Affiliates) harmless from and against any and all Damages incurred or suffered by Schwarz (and its directors, officers, employees, and Affiliates) as a consequence of: (i) any breach of any representation or warranty made by Nastech in this Agreement or any agreement, instrument or document delivered by Nastech pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (ii) any failure to perform duly and punctually any covenant, agreement or undertaking on the part of Nastech contained in this Agreement; (iii) any act or omission of Nastech with respect to the operation of Nastech's business, or the handling, manufacturing, sale, consumption or use of Nascobal by Nastech; or (iv) the infringement of the Licensed Assets, the Patent or the Technology of any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secret or other intellectual property right of any person other than Nastech or Schwarz.

Promptly after receipt by a party hereto of notice of any claim which could give rise to a right to indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1. such party (the "Indemnified Party") shall give the other party (the "Indemnifying Party") written notice describing the claim in reasonable detail. The failure of an Indemnified Party to give notice in the manner provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Section, except to the extent that such failure to give notice materially prejudices the Indemnifying Party's ability to defend such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to compromise or defend, at its own expense and by its own counsel, any such matter involving the asserted liability of the party seeking such indemnification. If the Indemnifying Party shall undertake to compromise or defend any such asserted liability, it shall promptly (and in any event not less than 10 days after receipt of the Indemnified Party's original notice) notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its intention to do so, and the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in the compromise or defense against any such asserted liability. All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with such cooperation shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend the asserted liability, fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election to compromise or defend as herein provided, fails to admit its obligation to indemnify under this Agreement with respect to the claim, or, if in the reasonable opinion of the Indemnified Party, the claim could result in the Indemnified Party becoming subject to injunctive relief or relief other than the payment of money damages that could materially adversely affect the ongoing business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, at its option, to pay, compromise or defend such asserted liability by its own counsel and its reasonable costs and expenses shall be included as part of the indemnification obligation of the Indemnifying Party hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any claim over the objection of the other; provided, however, that consent to settlement or compromise shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any event, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party may participate, at their own expense, in the defense of such asserted liability. If the Indemnifying Party chooses to defend any claim, the Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party any books, records or other documents within its control that are necessary or appropriate for such defense. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.2, (i) the party conducting the defense of a claim shall (A) keep the other party informed on a reasonable and timely basis as to the status of the defense of such claim (but only to the extent such other party is not participating jointly in the defense of such claim), and (B) conduct the defense of such claim in a prudent manner, and (ii) the Indemnifying Party shall not cease to defend, settle or otherwise dispose of any claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). 9.3 Indemnification Payment Obligation. No Indemnifying Party will have any obligations under Sections 9.1(a) or 9.1(b) until the cumulative aggregate amount of Damages incurred or suffered by the Indemnified Party which the Indemnifying Party is otherwise subject to under this Agreement exceeds $50,000 at which time the entire cumulative aggregate amount of such Damages shall be covered. The provisions of this Section 9.3 shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of any Indemnifying Party under any other Section of this Agreement. -24- 26 9.4 Indemnification Payment Adjustments. The amount of any Damages for which indemnification is provided under this Section 9 shall be reduced to take account of any net tax benefit and shall be increased to take account of any net tax detriment arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Damages or from the receipt of any such indemnification payment and shall be reduced by the insurance proceeds received and any other amount recovered, if any, by the Indemnified Party with respect to any Damages; provided, however, that an Indemnified Party shall not be subject to an obligation to pursue an insurance claim relating to any Damages for which indemnification is sought hereunder. If any Indemnified Party shall have received any payment pursuant to this Section 9 with respect to any Damages and shall subsequently have received insurance proceeds or other amounts with respect to such Damages, then such Indemnified Party shall pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the difference (if any) between (i) the sum of the amount of those insurance proceeds or other amounts received and the amount of the payment by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9 with respect to such Damages and (ii) the amount necessary to fully and completely indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Party from and against such Damages; provided, however, in no event will such Indemnified Party have any obligation pursuant to this sentence to pay to such Indemnifying Party an amount greater than the amount of the payment by such Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Section 9 with respect to such Damages. 9.5 Indemnification Payment. Upon the final determination of liability and the amount of the indemnification payment under this Section 9, the appropriate party shall pay to the other, as the case may be, within 10 business days after such determination, the amount of any claim for indemnification made hereunder. 9.6 Survival. The provisions of Section 9 shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Each Indemnified Party's rights under Section 9 shall not be deemed to have been waived or otherwise affected by such Indemnified Party's waiver of the breach of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant contained in or made pursuant this Agreement, unless such waiver expressly and in writing also waives any or all of the Indemnified Party's right under Section 9. SECTION 10 TERMINATION 10.1 Termination. The term of this Agreement shall begin upon the Closing Date and, unless sooner terminated as hereinafter provided, shall end upon the later of (i) the fifteenth anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the expiration of the Patents (including any continuation thereof).

(b) Termination for Default. (i) Schwarz and Nastech each shall have the right to terminate this Agreement for default upon the other's failure to comply in any material respect with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At least 30 days prior to any such termination for default, the party seeking to so terminate shall give the other written notice of its intention to terminate this Agreement in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1(b), which notice shall set forth the default(s) which form the basis for such termination. If the defaulting party fails to correct such default(s) within 30 days after receipt of notification, or if the same cannot reasonably be corrected or remedied within 30 days, then if the defaulting party has not commenced curing said default(s) within said 30 days and be diligently pursuing completion of same, then such party immediately may terminate this Agreement. (ii) This Section 10.1(b) shall not be exclusive and shall not be in lieu of any other remedies available to a party hereto for any default hereunder on the part of the other party. (c) Continuing Obligations. Termination of this Agreement for any reason shall not relieve the parties of any obligation accruing prior thereto with respect to the Nascobal and any ongoing obligations hereunder with respect to the remaining Product and shall be without prejudice to the rights and remedies of either party with respect to any antecedent breach of the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no termination of this Agreement, whether by lapse of time or otherwise, shall serve to terminate the obligations of the parties hereto under Sections 8.4, 8.5, 8.6, 8.8, 8.11, 8.17, 9, 10.1(c) and 11 hereof, and such obligations shall survive any such termination. -26- 28 SECTION 11 MISCELLANEOUS 11.1 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that neither Nastech nor Schwarz may assign any of its rights, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that no prior written consent shall be required in the event that a third party acquires substantially all of the assets or outstanding shares of, or merges with, Schwarz or Nastech, as the case may be. 11.2 Notices.
