(5) LEGAL PROCEEDINGS: ----------------- In August 2001, Ares Trading S.A. ("Serono") filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the "Action") naming the Company as defendant. The Action sets forth claims for an alleged breach of contract for failure to supply Crinone in accordance with the supply agreement between the parties, and seeks damages and indemnification in the amount of $13 million. The Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously. In June and July 2000, six class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida purportedly on behalf of purchasers of the Company's common stock during the period from November 8, 1999 to June 9, 2000. These lawsuits were later combined into one. The complaints allege, among other things, that the Company and William Bologna, David Weinberg and Norman Meier made materially misleading statements and omissions about the likely prospects for two of the Company's products in violation of the federal securities law. The Company and the individual defendants have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On May 9, 2001, the complaint was dismissed with prejudice. Other claims and lawsuits have been filed against the Company. In the opinion of management and counsel, none of these lawsuits are material and they are all adequately reserved for or covered by insurance or, if not covered, are without any or have little merit or involve such amounts that is disposed of unfavorably would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. Page 10 of 18 (6) PRODUCT RECALL: -------------- On April 5, 2001, the Company announced that it has requested its licensee, Serono, to voluntarily recall a number of batches of Crinone(R), a progesterone vaginal gel used in the treatment of infertile women. The recall has been initiated due to an application problem of the gel, which may change consistency over time in the recalled batches. Investigations of the problem to date confirm that there is no safety risk to patients, and that the active ingredient, progesterone, is still effective, and all other parameters remain within specification. The Company estimates that the direct out-of-pocket costs related to the recall will approximate $1.5 million, which was recorded in the first quarter of 2001. The Company is attempting to recover a portion of the product recall costs from its trade suppliers, but has not included any potential recovery, if any, in its estimate. (7) CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE: ------------------------------- During the three month period ended June 30, 2001, the Company decided to discontinue operations in its Paris, France office. The activities conducted in this office include new product development, coordination of regulatory matters and clinical research performed outside the United States, production planning, quality control and assurance and international marketing. It is anticipated that all operations will cease by December 31, 2001. Certain costs will be incurred in closing the office. The Company estimates that these costs will approximate $1 million. Approximately $800,000 will represent the cost of employment termination in compliance with French employment regulations. Additional costs to be incurred include post-closing rent, fixed asset write-offs and legal costs. As of June 30, 2001, $173,000 of the total cost has been paid. (8) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT: -------------------- In March 2001, the Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with G. Frederick Wilkinson to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Pursuant to his employment, Mr. Wilkinson is entitled to a base salary of $450,000 per year plus a minimum ten percent bonus. Additionally, Mr. Wilkinson was granted options to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $5.85 and warrants to purchase 350,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $8.35. The options and warrants vest ratably over a four year period. (9) SUBSEQUENT EVENT: ---------------- On July 23, 2001, the Company completed an offering of 434,783 shares of the Company's common stock, under the Registration Statement, the base Prospectus and the related Prospectus Supplement dated July 23, 2001, pursuant to the Agreement, dated as of July 23, 2001, between the Company and Ridgeway Investment Limited. The shares of common stock were sold at a price of $6.90 per share, calculated based on a small negotiated discount to the market price on July 23, 2001. Gross proceeds before expenses were $3,000,000. Page 11 of 18 COLUMBIA LABORATORIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES -------------------------------------------- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL ------------------------------------------------- CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------------------------------ Forward-Looking Information The Company and its representatives from time to time make written or verbal forward looking statements, including statements contained in this and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and in the Company's reports to stockholders, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements include, without limitation, the Company's expectations regarding sales, earnings or other future financial performance and liquidity, product introductions, entry into new geographic regions and general optimism about future operations or operating results. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and operations, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from its expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from expectations include, without limitation: (i) increased competitive activity from companies in the pharmaceutical industry, some of which have greater resources than the Company; (ii) social, political and economic risks to the Company's foreign operations, including changes in foreign investment and trade policies and regulations of the host countries and of the United States; (iii) changes in the laws, regulations and policies, including changes in accounting standards, that affect, or will affect, the Company in the United States and abroad; (iv) foreign currency fluctuations affecting the relative prices at which the Company and foreign competitors sell their products in the same market; (v)failure to develop the Company products or delay in the development of the Company's products and (vi) the timely completion of studies and approvals by the FDA and other regulatory agencies. Additional information on factors that may affect the business and financial results of the Company can be found in filings of the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these risks and uncertainties. The Company assumes no responsibility to update forward-looking statements made herein or otherwise. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash and cash equivalents decreased from $7,594,707 at December 31, 2000 to $6,782,906 at June 30, 2001. Through June 30, 2001, the Company completed two offerings of its common stock to Ridgeway Investments Limited. The first on January 31, 2001 for 288,462 shares at a price of $5.20 per share, which resulted in $1,491,231 after expenses and the second on May 10, 2001 for 304,348 shares at a price of $5.75 per share, which resulted in $1,630,951 after expenses. The Company used $3,830,588 for operating activities during the first six months of 2001. The Company also paid $101,283 for dividends to holders of its Series A and C preferred stocks. Effective as of February 6, 2001, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Common Stock Purchase Agreement with Acqua Wellington to sell up to $16.5 million of the Common Stock, under the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, and the related Prospectus Supplement dated February 6, 2001 and amended on April 13, 2001. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company may, from time to time over the term of the Purchase Agreement and at its sole discretion, issue and sell to Acqua Wellington up to $16.5 million of the Common Stock, subject to certain conditions, at a price per share based on the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock over a certain period of time less a discount ranging from 5% to 7%. In addition, during the period in which the Company elects to issue and sell shares of the Common Stock to Acqua Wellington, the Company may also, at its sole discretion, grant Acqua Wellington a call option at the same discount for the applicable period to purchase additional shares of the Common Stock up to the applicable amount being sold by the Company in such period, subject to the overall limit of $16.5 million described above. Page 12 of 18 On July 23, 2001, the Company completed an offering of its common stock to Ridgeway Investment Limited for 434,783 shares at a price of $6.90 per share. The Company has a worldwide, except for South Africa, license and supply agreement for Crinone(R) with Serono, a Swiss pharmaceutical company. Under the terms of the agreement, as of March 31, 2001, the Company has earned $17 million in milestone payments and may receive additional milestone payments, if certain conditions are met. The Company supplies Crinone to Serono at a price equal to 30% of Serono's net selling price. In connection with the 1989 purchase of the assets of Bio-Mimetics, Inc., which assets consisted of the patents underlying the Company's Bioadhesive Delivery System, other patent applications and related technology, the Company pays Bio-Mimetics, Inc. a royalty equal to two percent of the net sales of products based on the Bioadhesive Delivery System, to an aggregate of $7.5 million. The Company is required to prepay a portion of the remaining royalty obligation, in cash or stock at the option of the Company, if certain conditions are met. Through June 30, 2001, the Company has paid approximately $1.9 million in royalty payments. In March 1999, the Company entered into a license and supply agreement with Mipharm SpA under which Mipharm SpA will be the exclusive marketer of the Company's previously unlicensed women's healthcare products in Italy, Portugal, Greece and Ireland with a right of first refusal for Spain. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received a $462,500 in 1999, net of expenses, upfront payment and expects to receive future milestone payments, as additional products are made available by the Company. The Company believes that sales and liquidity will increase as Crinone is fully marketed by Serono. As of June 30, 2001, the Company has outstanding exercisable options and warrants that, if exercised, would result in approximately $50.8 million of additional capital. However, there can be no assurance that such options or warrants will be exercised. Significant expenditures anticipated by the Company in the near future are concentrated on research and development related to new products. The Company anticipates it will spend approximately $8.0 million on research and development in 2001 and an additional $40,000 on property and equipment. As of June 30, 2001, the Company had available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $53.4 million to offset its future U.S. taxable income. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, as of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets include deferred tax assets of approximately $19 million and $18 million, respectively, (comprised primarily of a net operating loss carryforward) for which a valuation allowance has been recorded since the realizability of the deferred tax assets are not determinable. Results of Operations - Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 versus Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Net sales decreased by approximately $4.4 million from approximately $5.7 million in 2000 compared to $1.3 million in 2001. The decrease is primarily the result of decreased Crinone sales of approximately $2.4 million in 2001 from approximately $2.9 million in 2000 to approximately $539,000 in 2001 as result of the voluntary recall of Crinone. No sales of Crinone were recorded from March through June 30, 2001. The remainder of the decrease in sales totaling approximately $1.5 million is the result of the Company's sale of the Replens line and licensing of the other over-the-counter brands in May 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased in 2001 to 34% as compared to 63% in 2000. The lower gross profit percentage in 2001 is the result of the decrease in Crinone sales, which has a higher gross profit. Page 13 of 18 Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately $898,000 in 2001 to approximately $517,000 in 2001 from $1,415,000 in 2000. The reduction is due primarily to the Company's sale of its Replens line and licensing of the over-the-counter brands, in May 2000, resulting in an approximately $442,000 reduction in advertising and marketing expenses, an approximately $108,000 reduction in broker expenses, an approximately $102,000 reduction in Replens amortization expense and an approximately $137,000 reduction in warehousing and freight costs. Because of the reduction in Crinone sales, there was a reduction of approximately $57,000 in royalties. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $88,000 in 2001 to approximately $1,933,000 in 2001 compared to approximately $1,845,000 in 2000. The majority of the increase is the result of an increase in salaries associated with the hiring of additional management personnel in 2001 and an increase in patent legal fees. Research and development increased in 2001 by approximately $1,016,000 from approximately $2,530,000 in 2000 to $3,546,000 in 2001. The increase is primarily related to the costs associated with the Company's Phase III trials for its male testosterone product. Product recall costs in 2001 represent an estimate of the Company's direct out-of-pocket costs related to the voluntary recall of Crinone. Restructuring costs in 2001, of $1,000,000, represent an estimate of the costs of downsizing the Company's presence outside the United States. Restructuring costs in 2000, of $285,000, relate to estimated costs associated with the Company's closing of its corporate and accounting operations in Florida. Interest expense related to the convertible subordinated note payable totaled approximately $378,000 in 2001 and 2000. As a result, the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2001 was $8,259,053 or $(.27) per common share as compared to the net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2000 of $2,537,776 or $(.09) per common share. Results of Operations - Three Months Ended June 30, 2001 versus Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Net sales decreased by approximately $2.3 million from approximately $2.7 million in 2000 compared to $428,000 in 2001. The decrease is primarily the result of decreased Crinone sales of approximately $1.7 million in 2001 from approximately $1.7 million in 2000 to $0.0 in 2001 as result of the voluntary recall of Crinone. No sales of Crinone were recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2001. The remainder of the decrease in sales totaling approximately $600,000 is the result of the Company's sale of the Replens line and licensing of the other over-the-counter brands in May 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased in 2001 to 14% as compared to 68% in 2000. The lower gross profit percentage in 2001 is the result of the decrease in Crinone sales, which has a higher gross profit. Selling and distribution expenses decreased by approximately $348,000 in 2001 to approximately $254,000 in 2001 from $602,000 in 2000. The reduction is due primarily to the Company's sale of its Replens line and licensing of the over-the-counter brands, in May 2000, resulting in an approximately $171,000 reduction in advertising and marketing expenses, an approximately $33,000 reduction in broker expenses, an approximately $26,000 reduction in Replens amortization expense and an approximately $52,000 reduction in warehousing and freight costs. Because of the reduction in Crinone sales, there was a reduction of approximately $36,000 in royalties Page 14 of 18 General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $115,000 in 2001 to approximately $1,172,000 in 2001 compared to approximately $1,057,000 in 2000. The majority of the increase is the result of an increase in salaries associated with the hiring of additional management personnel in 2001 and an increase in legal patent fees. Research and development increased in 2001 by approximately $767,000 from approximately $1,166,000 in 2000 to $1,933,000 in 2001. The increase is primarily related to the costs associated with the Company's Phase III trials for its male testosterone product. Restructuring costs in 2001, of $1,000,000, represent an estimate of the costs of downsizing the Company's presence outside of the United States. Restructuring costs, in 2000, of $285,000, relate to estimated costs associated with the Company's closing of its corporate and accounting operations in Florida. Interest expense related to the convertible subordinated note payable totaled approximately $189,000 in 2001 and 2000. As a result, the net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2001 was $4,430,124 or $(.14) per common share as compared to the net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2000 of $1,176,080 or $(.04) per common share.

Legal Proceedings ------ ----------------- In August 2001, Ares Trading S.A. ("Serono") filed an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (the "Action") naming the Company as defendant. The Action sets forth claims for an alleged breach of contract for failure to supply Crinone in accordance with the supply agreement between the parties, and seeks damages and indemnification in the amount of $13 million. The Company intends to defend the lawsuit vigorously. In June and July 2000, six class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida purportedly on behalf of purchasers of the Company's common stock during the period from November 8, 1999 to June 9, 2000. These lawsuits were later combined into one. The complaints allege, among other things, that the Company and William Bologna, David Weinberg and Norman Meier made materially misleading statements and omissions about the likely prospects for two of the Company's products in violation of the federal securities law. The Company and the individual defendants have filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On May 9, 2001, the complaint was dismissed with prejudice. Other claims and lawsuits have been filed against the Company. In the opinion of management and counsel, none of these lawsuits are material and they are all adequately reserved for or covered by insurance or, if not covered, are without any or have little merit or involve such amounts that is disposed of unfavorably would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
