See notes to unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. 3 6 ARIAD PHARMACEUTICALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. MANAGEMENT STATEMENT In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2000 and the results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999, which includes consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997. The results of operations for the three month and six month period ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 2. MARKETABLE SECURITIES The Company has classified its marketable securities as available for sale and accordingly, carries such securities at aggregate fair value. At December 31, 1999, the Company held no marketable securities. At June 30, 2000, the aggregate fair value was $12,639,302 and amortized cost was $12,640,793. Realized gains and losses on sales of marketable securities were not material during the quarter ended June 30, 2000; the net unrealized loss of $1,491 is included in stockholders' equity at June 30, 2000. 3. INVENTORY Inventories are carried at cost using the first in, first out method and are charged to research and development expense when consumed. Inventory consists of bulk pharmaceutical material to be used for multiple preclinical and clinical drug development programs and amounted to $1,004,000 at June 30, 2000 and $1,182,000 at December 31, 1999. 4. INTANGIBLE AND OTHER ASSETS Intangible and other assets consist primarily of the cost of purchased patents, patent applications, and deposits. The balance at December 31, 1999 included $6,925,000 of cash subsequently expended on January 14, 2000 to repurchase Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock (Note 8). 5. LONG-TERM DEBT At June 30, 2000, the Company had outstanding with its principal bank a five-year term loan in the amount of $2,500,000 maturing July 1, 2002. The bank term note is collateralized by all assets of the Company. The Company may, at its option, pledge marketable securities as collateral under the bank term note, and in such event, the interest rate would be adjusted to the equivalent of 90-day LIBOR plus 1.25%. 4 7 6. NET LOSS PER SHARE Net loss per share amounts have been computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Because of the net loss reported in each period, diluted and basic per share amounts are the same. In 2000 and 1999, options, warrants and the effects of the conversion of convertible preferred stock were not included in the computation of earnings per share because this effect would be antidilutive. 7. HOECHST-ARIAD GENOMICS CENTER, LLC From November 1995 through December 1999, substantially all of the Company's research revenue and the majority of its research expenses were incurred in collaboration or in partnership with Aventis Pharmaceuticals Inc. (formerly known as Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc.), ("Aventis") and its affiliates. In November 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with Hoechst Marion Roussel, S.A. to collaborate on the discovery and development of drugs to treat osteoporosis and related bone diseases, one of the Company's signal transduction inhibitor programs. In March 1997, the Company entered into an agreement, which established a 50/50 joint venture, called the Hoechst-ARIAD Genomics Center, LLC (the "Genomics Center"), with Aventis to pursue functional genomics with the goal of identifying genes that encode novel therapeutic proteins and small-molecule drug targets. On December 31, 1999, the Company completed the sale of its 50% interest in the Genomics Center to Aventis and received $40,000,000 in cash, the return of 3,004,436 shares of the Company's series B convertible preferred stock, the forgiveness of $1,857,000 of long-term debt owed to Aventis, drug candidates and related technologies resulting from a November 1995 Osteoporosis collaboration agreement and the right to use certain genomics and bioinformatics technologies developed by the Genomics Center. The Company recorded a net gain on the sale of $46,440,000. As a result of this sale, the revenue generated from the relationship with Aventis will not recur, and the Company expects to realize a reduction of revenue in fiscal 2000 of at least $12,468,000, which will be offset by an expected reduction in research and development expenses associated with the Genomics Center of approximately $16,700,000. 8. REDEEMABLE CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK On January 14, 2000, the Company completed the repurchase of the remaining 3,000 shares of its Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock for an aggregate consideration of $6,925,000 plus 1,078,038 shares of common stock. (Note 4). 5 8 9. EQUITY FINANCING FACILITY On June 27, 2000, the Company entered into an Equity Financing Facility (the "Equity Facility") with Acqua Wellington North American Equities Fund, Ltd. ("Acqua Wellington"). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company may from time to time sell up to $75 million of its common stock to Acqua Wellington over an 18 month period expiring in December, 2001. The Company agreed to issue and sell the shares to Acqua Wellington at a per share price equal to the daily volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock on each date during a specified period during which the shares are purchased, less a discount of between 3.5% and 6.0%, or under certain circumstances, less a discount mutually agreed to by the parties. The discount is determined based on the threshold price to be established by ARIAD for the applicable period. 10. REDEMPTION OF WARRANTS The Company received additional funds aggregating $11.6 million from the exercise of approximately 1.4 million of its publicly traded Warrants. The Warrants, exercisable one for one, with an exercise price of $8.40 per share, had been called for redemption effective April 27, 2000. 11. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The new standard requires that all companies record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the values of those derivatives would be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. Management is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 133 on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company will adopt this accounting standard, as amended, on January 1, 2001, as required. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101"), which provides guidance related to revenue recognition based on interpretations and practices followed by the SEC. SAB 101 is effective in the quarter ended December 31, 2000, and requires companies to report any changes in revenue recognition as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle at the time of implementation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 20, "Accounting Changes." The Company is currently assessing the impact of SAB 101 on its financial position and results of operations. 6 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW We are a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of proprietary platform technologies and therapeutic products based on gene regulation and signal transduction. Our core competencies in functional genomics, protein engineering and structure-based drug design allow us to capitalize on the wealth of genetic information being generated by government, academic and commercial laboratories. We apply this expertise to the development of proprietary technology platforms that allow manipulation of signal transduction, gene transcription, and protein secretion events using small-molecule drugs. We believe that our ability to control the activity of genes and proteins allows us to broadly apply discoveries in genomics to the development of innovative therapeutic products. AVENTIS RELATIONSHIP From November 1995 through December 1999, substantially all of our research revenue and the majority of our research expenses were incurred in collaboration or in partnership with Aventis Pharmaceuticals Inc. (formerly known as Hoechst Marion Roussel, Inc.) ("Aventis"), and its affiliates. In November 1995, we entered into an agreement with Hoechst Marion Roussel, S.A. to collaborate on the discovery and development of drugs to treat osteoporosis and related bone diseases (the "1995 Osteoporosis Agreement"), one of our signal transduction inhibitor programs. In March 1997, we entered into an agreement, which established a 50/50 joint venture, called the Hoechst-ARIAD Genomics Center, LLC (the "Genomics Center"), with Aventis to pursue functional genomics with the goal of identifying genes that encode novel therapeutic proteins and small-molecule drug targets. On December 31, 1999, we completed the sale of our 50% interest in the Genomics Center to Aventis and received $40,000,000 in cash, the return of 3,004,436 shares of our series B convertible preferred stock, the forgiveness of $1,857,000 of long-term debt we owed to Aventis, drug candidates and related technologies resulting from the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement and the right to use certain genomics and bioinformatics technologies developed by the Genomics Center. We recorded a net gain on the sale of $46,440,000. As a result of this sale, the revenue generated in our relationship with Aventis will not recur, and we expect to realize a reduction of revenue from this relationship in fiscal 2000 of approximately $12,500,000, which will be offset by an expected reduction in research and development expenses associated with the Genomics Center of approximately $16,700,000. GENERAL Since our inception in 1991, we have devoted substantially all of our resources to our research and development programs. We receive no revenue from the sale of pharmaceutical products, and substantially all revenue to date has been received in connection with our relationship with Aventis. Except for the gain on the sale of the Genomics Center in 7 10 December 1999, which resulted in net income for fiscal 1999, we have not been profitable since inception. We expect to continue to incur substantial and increasing operating losses for the foreseeable future, primarily due to the expansion of our research and development programs and manufacturing and clinical development. We expect that losses will fluctuate from quarter to quarter and that these fluctuations may be substantial. As of June 30, 2000, we had an accumulated deficit of $81,595,000. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 REVENUE We recognized research revenue of $18,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $2,724,000 for the same period in 1999. Research revenue in 2000 is comprised principally of transitional research revenue services provided to Aventis following the December 31, 1999 sale of our interest in the Genomics Center. The decrease in research revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2000, when compared to the corresponding period in 1999 is due to the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center and the termination of research revenue associated with the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement. Research revenue in 1999 is comprised principally of research revenue recognized under the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement and research services provided to the Genomics Center. Interest income increased by $309,000 to $452,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $143,000 for the same period in 1999 primarily as a result of higher levels of funds invested during the period. OPERATING EXPENSES Research and development expenses decreased to $2,936,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $7,824,000 for the same period in 1999 due primarily to the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center. We expect our research and development expenses to decrease on a comparative basis over the remainder of this year as a result of the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center. General and administrative expenses decreased to $666,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $884,000 for the corresponding period in 1999 primarily due to decreased professional and legal services. We incurred interest expense of $57,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared to $91,000 for the corresponding period in 1999. The decrease resulted from a lower level of long-term debt during the period. 8 11 OPERATING RESULTS We incurred losses of $3,190,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 and $6,361,000 for the corresponding period in 1999, or $.12 and $.29 per share, respectively. We expect that substantial operating losses will continue for several more years but will decrease on a comparative basis over the remainder of this year as a result of the sale of our interest in the Genomics Center. However, operating losses are expected to increase thereafter as our product development activities expand and will fluctuate as a result of differences in the timing and composition of revenue earned and expenses incurred. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED WITH THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 REVENUE We recognized research revenue of $126,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $7,306,000 for the same period in 1999. Research revenue in 2000 is comprised principally of transitional research revenue services provided to Aventis following the December 31, 1999 sale of our interest in the Genomics Center. The decrease in research revenue for the six months ending June 30, 2000, when compared to the corresponding period in 1999 is due to the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center and the termination of research revenue associated with the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement. Research revenue in 1999 is comprised principally of research revenue recognized under the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement and research services provided to the Genomics Center. As a result of the sale of the Genomics Center and termination of the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement, we expect to realize a reduction in revenue in fiscal 2000 of approximately $12,500,000 from the termination of our relationship with Aventis. Interest income increased by $443,000 to $759,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $316,000 for the same period in 1999 primarily as a result of higher levels of funds invested during the period. OPERATING EXPENSES Research and development expenses decreased to $5,835,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $15,970,000 for the same period in 1999 due primarily to the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center as well as a lower level of manufacturing, development and other preclinical development costs that had been incurred in the prior period. We expect our research and development expenses to continue to decrease over the remainder of this year on a comparative basis as a result of the termination of research services provided to the Genomics Center. General and administrative expenses increased slightly to $1,643,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $1,615,000 for the corresponding period in 1999 primarily due to increased professional and legal services incurred principally in connection with the repurchase and retirement of the remaining outstanding series C convertible preferred stock which was offset partially by a reduction in personnel expenses. 9 12 We incurred interest expense of $119,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $197,000 for the corresponding period in 1999. The decrease resulted from a lower level of long-term debt during the period. OPERATING RESULTS We incurred losses of $6,712,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and $11,290,000 for the corresponding period in 1999, or $.27 and $.52 per share, respectively. We expect that substantial operating losses will continue for several more years but will decrease over the remainder of the year as a result of the sale of our interest in the Genomics Center. However, operating losses are expected to increase thereafter as our product development activities expand and will fluctuate as a result of differences in the timing and composition of revenue earned and expenses incurred. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES We have financed our operations and investments primarily through the private placement and public offering of our securities, including the sale of series C preferred stock to investors and the sale of series B preferred stock to Aventis as well as the exercise of stock options and warrants, supplemented by the issuance of long-term debt, operating and capital lease transactions, interest income, government-sponsored research grants, research revenue under the 1995 Osteoporosis Agreement, research revenue under the terms of our services agreements with the Genomics Center and, in December 1999, the sale to Aventis of our 50% interest in the Genomics Center. On June 27, 2000 we entered into a definitive agreement with Acqua Wellington North American Equities Fund, Ltd. ("Acqua Wellington") for an equity financing facility providing for the sale from time to time of up to $75,000,000 of the Company's common stock over an eighteen month period. In addition, on June 27, 2000 we sold to Acqua Wellington 680,851 shares of common stock for $8,000,000 in a direct equity placement at $11.75 per share. At June 30, 2000, we had cash and marketable securities totaling $41,757,000 and working capital of $38,750,000 compared to cash and cash equivalents totaling $28,320,000 and working capital of $22,730,000 at December 31, 1999. The primary uses of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2000 were $8,963,000 to finance our operations and working capital requirements, $16,503,000 to purchase marketable securities, $94,000 to purchase laboratory equipment, $600,000 to repay long-term debt, and $469,000 to acquire intellectual property. The primary source of funds during the six months ended June 30, 2000, were $4,000,000 for the sales and maturities of marketable securities, $11,638,000 from the exercise of warrants, $4,250,000 from the exercise of stock options and $7,539,000 from the issuance of common stock, net of issuance costs. 10 13 We have substantial fixed commitments under various research and licensing agreements, consulting and employment agreements, lease agreements and long-term debt instruments. These fixed commitments currently aggregate in excess of $4,600,000 per year and may increase. We will require substantial additional funding for our research and development programs, including preclinical development and clinical trials, for operating expenses, for the pursuit of regulatory clearances and for establishing manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities. Adequate funds for these purposes, whether obtained through financial markets or collaborative or other arrangements with collaborative partners, or from other sources, may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us. We believe that our available funds will be adequate to satisfy our capital and operating requirements at least through the next two years. However, there can be no assurance that changes in our research and development plans or other events affecting our revenues or operating expenses will not result in the earlier depletion of our funds. SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT Safe harbor statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: Except for the historical information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the matters discussed herein are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to risks and uncertainties regarding our ability of the Company to succeed in developing marketable drugs or generating product revenues, our ability to accurately estimate the actual research and development expenses and other costs associated with the preclinical and clinical development of our products, the success of our preclinical studies, our ability to commence clinical studies, the adequacy of our capital resources and the availability of additional funding, as well as general economic, competitive, governmental and technological factors affecting our operations, markets, products, services and prices, and other factors discussed under the heading "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As a result of these or other factors, actual events or results could differ materially from those described herein. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We own financial instruments that are sensitive to market risks as part of our investment portfolio. The investment portfolio is used to preserve our capital until it is required to fund operations, including our research and development activities. Our marketable securities consist of U.S. Treasuries and other government securities, commercial and corporate paper and corporate notes. Substantially all investments mature within one year, are not callable by the issuer and have fixed interest rates and are available for sale. These investments are subject to interest rate risk, and could decline in value if interest rates fluctuate. Due to the conservative nature of our marketable securities, we do not believe that we have a material exposure to interest rate risk. At June 30, 2000, we have an outstanding bank term note with an interest rate of prime plus 1%. This note is sensitive to interest rate risk. In the event of a hypothetical 10% increase in 11 14 the prime rate, or 95 basis points, we would incur approximately $24,000 of additional interest expense per year. 12 15 PART II.

EMPLOYMENT, DUTIES AND ACCEPTANCE. 1.1 The Company hereby employs the Employee, for the Term (as hereinafter defined), to render full-time services to the Company, and to perform such duties as he shall reasonably be directed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company to perform.

TERM OF EMPLOYMENT. The term of the Employee's employment under this Agreement (the "Term") shall commence June 15, 1992 (the "Effective Date") and shall end on December 31, 1995 unless sooner terminated pursuant to Section 4 or 5 of this Agreement; PROVIDED that this Agreement shall automatically be renewed for successive one-year terms (the Term and, if the period of employment is so renewed, such additional period (s) of employment are collectively referred to herein as the "Term") unless terminated by written notice given by either party to the other at least 90 days prior to the end of the applicable Term. 3. COMPENSATION. 2 3.1 As full compensation for all services to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the Employee, during the Term, a salary at the fixed rate of $135,000 per annum during the first year of the Term and increased each year thereafter, by amounts, if any, to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), in its sole discretion, payable in equal semimonthly installments, less such deductions or amounts to be withheld as shall be required by applicable law and regulations. 3.2 Each year the Company shall pay the Employee a bonus of up to 30% of base salary, which bonus shall be determined annually by the Board.

In the event that the courts of any one or more of such states shall hold any such covenant wholly unenforceable by reason of the breadth of such scope or otherwise, it is the intention of the parties hereto that such determination not bar or in any way affect the Company's right to the relief provided above in the courts of any other states within the geographical scope of such covenants, as to breaches of such covenants 9 in such other respective jurisdictions, the above covenants as they relate to each state being, for this purpose, severable into diverse and independent covenants. 11.
