ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW Access Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a Delaware corporation in the development stage. We are an emerging pharmaceutical company focused on developing both novel low development risk product candidates and technologies with longer- term major product opportunities. Together with our subsidiaries, we have proprietary patents or rights to five technology platforms: synthetic polymers, bioerodible hydrogels, ResiDerm TM, carbohydrate targeting technology and agents for the prevention and treatment of viral disease, including HIV. In addition, Access' partner Block Drug Company, or Block, is marketing in the United States Aphthasol TM, the first FDA approved product for the treatment of canker sores. We are developing new formulations and delivery forms to evaluate this product in additional clinical indications. We have licensed the rights to amlexanox for the treatment of canker sores, oral diseases and topical applications from Block for certain countries excluding the U. S. and the worldwide rights for certain additional indications including mucositis. Except for the historical information contained herein, the following discussions and certain statements in this Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. In addition to the risks and uncertainties set forth in this Form 10-Q, other factors could cause actual results to differ materially, including but not limited to our research and development focus, uncertainties associated with research and development activities, uncertainty associated with, and the results of, preclinical and clinical testing, future capital requirements, anticipated option and licensing revenues, dependence on others, ability to raise capital, and other risks detailed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act, including but not limited to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. Since our inception, we have devoted our resources primarily to fund our research and development programs. We have been unprofitable since inception and to date have received limited revenues from the sale of products. No assurance can be given that we will be able to generate sufficient product revenues to attain profitability on a sustained basis or at all. We expect to incur losses for the next several years as we continue to invest in product research and development, preclinical studies, clinical trials and regulatory compliance. As of September 30, 2000, our accumulated deficit was $30,289,000 of which $8,894,000 was the result of the write-off of excess purchase price. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS On September 20, 2000, we completed a $13.5 million convertible note offering. The offering was placed with three investors. The note has a fixed conversion price of $5.50 per share of common stock and is not convertible for at least twelve months. The note pays 7.0% per annum for the first twelve months and if not converted at that time the note will be adjusted to 7.7% per annum. The note is due September 13, 2005. 2 In addition, on September 13, 2000 we completed a transaction offering 250,000 shares of treasury stock to an individual at $5.50 share. We received gross proceeds of $1.4 million from this sale. On August 25, 2000 we issued 142,857 shares of our common stock to Mipharm SpA in connection with an investment agreement between us and Mipharm that granted Mipharm the right to acquire shares at $3.50 per share. OTHER DEVELOPMENTS On July 21, 2000, we initiated a voluntary odd-lot stock buy-back program through which stockholders who own 25 or fewer shares of our common stock, or Small-lot Stockholders, may elect to tender their shares for sale to Access. Under this program, we will repurchase the shares held by Small-lot Stockholders who validly tender their shares pursuant to the terms of the odd-lot stock buy-back program. The per share purchase price to be paid by Access to each participating Small-lot Stockholder for each share validly tendered by such Small-lot Stockholder pursuant to the terms of the odd-lot stock buy-back program will be the closing price of our common stock, as quoted on the American Stock Exchange, on the date that a completed package, addressed to Access and containing the Small-lot Stockholder's original stock certificate(s) and a signed and properly completed Letter of Transmittal, is post dated. This odd-lot stock buy-back program will remain available to Small-lot Stockholders until November 30, 2000 unless extended. On June 26, 2000 the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared our Investigational New Drug Application (IND) to commence Phase III clinical development in the United States for OraDisc TM for the treatment of canker sores. OraDisc TM, a polymer disc formulation which adheres to the disease site and slowly erodes, locally releasing the drug, is potentially an improved delivery vehicle for the oral delivery of amlexanox. Utilizing this technology, it is anticipated that higher drug concentrations will be achieved at the disease site, increasing the effectiveness of the product. Previously, in April 2000, the FDA cleared our IND to commence a clinical trial program for OraDisc TM and the initial irritation study conducted under the IND has been successfully completed. The Phase III trial is being conducted at 15 centers in the United States and one site in Europe. The clinical trial will be a double-blind placebo controlled study with a no treatment arm which will evaluate the ability of OraDisc TM to accelerate healing and reduce pain once a canker sore has developed. This study has a similar design to the studies conducted with the 5% amlexanox oral paste where the product was proven effective accelerating healing and reducing pain. Currently, a Phase III clinical study is being conducted in Northern Ireland to evaluate OraDisc TM for the prevention of canker sores by applying the product at the first sign or symptom of the disease. Two European clinical studies of Zindaclin TM, which incorporates clindamycin in the ResiDerm TM delivery system for the treatment of acne, have been completed. These studies are a pharmacokinetics study to determine the systemic absorption of Zindaclin TM and a pivotal Phase III study evaluating the efficacy of the product. The results of these studies are expected to be available soon. The ResiDerm TM delivery system uses zinc ions to enhance the penetration of topically applied drugs into the skin and the accumulation of drug in the skin, offering the prospect of improved clinical effectiveness and reduced systemic side effects. OraRinse TM is an adhesive oral liquid formulation of amlexanox for the treatment of mucositis, a severe side effect of chemotherapy and radiation treatment of cancer patients. The Phase II study to evaluate the potential of OraRinse TM to prevent or reduce the severity of mucositis in head and neck cancer patients undergoing radiation with or without chemotherapy is approximately 50% enrolled. The study is expected to be completed in the 1st quarter 2001. 3 Polymer Platinate, AP5280, is a chemotherapeutic agent incorporating platinum bound to a polymer designed to improve the clinical benefit of platinum therapy in cancer patients by concentrating the drug in the tumor and reducing the side effects. A Phase I study to determine the dosing levels of the product, was recently initiated and three patients have already received treatment. The study is expected to take approximately 9-12 months depending on the number of patients required to determine maximum dosing levels. During the second quarter we completed two self-managed private placement sales of our common stock, pursuant to which we sold 250,000 and 507,750 shares of our common stock at per share prices of $3.00 and $5.00, respectively. We received gross proceeds of $3.3 million from these sales. In addition, on March 1, 2000, with the assistance of an investment bank, we completed the closing of a separate private placement offering of 4.8 million shares of common stock, at a per share price of $2.50, for which we received gross proceeds of $12.0 million. In accordance with the offering terms of this $12.0 million private placement, the placement agent for the offering received warrants to purchase 382,315 shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share, and elected to receive 520,905 shares of common stock in lieu of certain sales commissions. The funds from the private placements will be used principally for general corporate purposes to support our operations and to fund clinical development of our portfolio of product candidates. Exclusive of any payments received from strategic partners, we have funds to support operations for approximately 48 months. We registered the shares issued in each of the private placements on a Form S-3 registration statement that we initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 25, 2000. On March 28, 2000, our application for listing on the American Stock Exchange, or AMEX, was approved and we began trading on AMEX on March 30, 2000 under the symbol AKC. On February 25, 2000 we signed licensing agreements with Mipharm S.p.A. Pursuant to these agreements, we granted to Mipharm marketing and manufacturing rights for amlexanox for numerous indications including the prevention and treatment of canker sores and mucositis, oral lichen planus and atopic dermatitis. We also granted manufacturing rights for Europe to Mipharm for the products covered by the agreements. These licensing agreements cover Italy, Switzerland, Turkey and Lebanon and relate to: * the 5% paste formulation, approved in the United States for the treatment of canker sores, which is in the regulatory process in Europe; * the OraDisc TM formulation which is in Phase III clinical development for the prevention and treatment of canker sores; * OraRinse TM which has commenced Phase II clinical evaluation for the prevention and treatment of mucositis; * the 5% amlexanox cream formulation for the treatment for atopic dermatitis; and * a 5% amlexanox gel for the treatment of oral lichen planus. Mipharm also has the option to license other Access product developments in the fields of Dermatology and Gynecology in the territory covered by the license agreements. In addition, under the terms of the agreements, Mipharm paid up-front licensing fees and will make milestone payments and Access will receive a percentage of the product sales made in the territory. Moreover, pursuant to an investment agreement with Mipharm, Mipharm made an equity investment in Access in 2000 and has the right to make an additional equity investments in Access up to the first quarter in 2002. 4 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of September 30, 2000, our principal source of liquidity was $26,845,000 of cash and cash equivalents, short term investments and certificates of deposits. Working capital as of September 30, 2000 was $25,718,000, representing an increase in working capital of $25,630,000 as compared to the working capital as of December 31, 1999 of $88,000. The increase in working capital was due to the funds received from our March, May and September 2000 private placements, our September 2000 issuance of convertible notes and licensing revenues. Since inception, our expenses have significantly exceeded revenues, resulting in an accumulated deficit as of September 30, 2000 of $30,289,000. We have funded our operations primarily through private sales of common stock and convertible notes. Contract research payments, licensing fees and milestone payments from corporate alliances and mergers have also provided funding for operations. We have incurred negative cash flows from operations since inception, and have expended, and expect to continue to expend in the future, substantial funds to complete our planned product development efforts. We expect that our existing capital resources will be adequate to fund our current level of operations through the year 2004. We will expend substantial funds to conduct research and development programs, preclinical studies and clinical trials of potential products, including research and development with respect to our newly acquired and developed technology. Our future capital requirements and adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including: * the successful commercialization of amlexanox; * the ability to establish and maintain collaborative arrangements with corporate partners for the research, development and commercialization of products; * continued scientific progress in our research and development programs; * the magnitude, scope and results of preclinical testing and clinical trials; * the costs involved in filing, prosecuting and enforcing patent claims; * competing technological developments; * the cost of manufacturing and scale-up; * the ability to establish and maintain effective commercialization arrangements and activities; and * successful regulatory filings. Third Quarter 2000 Compared to Third Quarter 1999. Total research spending for the third quarter of 2000 was $1,051,000, as compared to $349,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $702,000. The increase in expenses was the result of: * higher clinical development and product development costs for the amlexanox projects: OraDisc TM ($286,000), OraRinse TM ($191,000) and amlexanox cream ($14,000); * higher external development costs for our polymer platinate project ($147,000); and * higher employee expenses due to additional scientific staff ($64,000). 5 We expect that research spending will increase and remain higher than prior years' quarters as we intend to hire additional scientific and clinical staff, commence additional clinical trials and accelerate preclinical development activities as we continue to develop our product candidates. Total general and administrative expenses were $332,000 for the third quarter of 2000 as compared to $293,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $39,000. The change in spending for the periods was due primarily to the following: * higher legal and accounting expenses ($34,000); * higher insurance costs due to clinical trial insurance ($23,000); and * other net increases ($25,000). Those increases were partially offset by lower patent costs ($43,000). Depreciation and amortization was $110,000 for the third quarter 2000 as compared to $84,000 for the same period in 1999, reflecting an increase of $26,000. The increase in amortization is due to: * amortization of goodwill of $21,000 recorded as a result of the purchase of Virologix Corporation; * amortization of licenses totaling $13,000; offset by, * lower depreciation ($8,000) reflecting that some of our major assets have been fully depreciated. Interest and miscellaneous income was $236,000 for the third quarter of 2000 as compared to $18,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $218,000. The increase in interest income was due to higher cash and short-term investment balances in 2000 resulting from our private placements of common stock and our convertible note offering in 2000. Interest expense was $53,000 for the third quarter of 2000 as compared to $3,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $50,000. The increase in interest expense is due to interest accrued on the $13.5 million convertible notes issued in September 2000 and amortization of debt issuance costs. Net loss in the third quarter of 2000 was $1,310,000, or a $0.11 basic and diluted loss per common share, compared with a loss of $711,000, or a $0.13 basic and diluted loss per common share, for the same period in 1999. Nine Months ended September 30, 2000 Compared to Nine Months ended September 30, 1999. Total research spending for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $2,723,000, as compared to $1,042,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $1,681,000. The increase in expenses was the result of: * higher clinical development and product development costs for the amlexanox projects: OraDisc TM ($591,000), OraRinse TM ($529,000) and amlexanox cream ($63,000); * higher external development costs for our polymer platinate project ($304,000); * higher employee expenses due to additional scientific staff ($117,000); * moving expenses for scientific personal ($50,000); and * recruitment expenses ($27,000). 6 We expect research spending to increase and remain higher than prior years' quarters as we intend to hire additional scientific and clinical staff, commence additional clinical trials and accelerate preclinical development activities as we continue to develop our product candidates. Total general and administrative expenses were $1,205,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999. Expenses increased in 2000 due to: * higher salary and bonus expenses ($138,000); * higher listing fees due to our listing on the American Stock Exchange ($30,000); and * higher legal and accounting expenses ($92,000). These increases were offset by a reduction in warrant costs ($260,000) due to warrants granted to consultants. Depreciation and amortization was $333,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $177,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $156,000. The increase in amortization is due to: * amortization of goodwill of $144,000 recorded as a result of the purchase of Virologix Corporation; and * amortization of licenses totaling $40,000. These increases were offset by lower depreciation ($28,000) reflecting that some of our major assets have been fully depreciated. Interest and miscellaneous income was $524,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $37,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $487,000. The increase in interest income was due to higher cash balances in 2000 resulting from our private placements of common stock and our convertible note offering in 2000. Interest expense was $56,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as compared to $11,000 for the same period in 1999, an increase of $45,000. The increase in interest expense is due to interest accrued on the $13.5 million convertible notes issued in September 2000 and amortization of debt issuance costs. Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 was $3,836,000, or a $0.37 basic and diluted loss per common share compared with a loss of $2,398,000, or a $0.58 basic and diluted loss per common share, for the same period in 1999.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including only normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and changes in financial position for such periods, have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The results of operations for the periods ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results which may be expected for a full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1999 contains financial information taken from the audited financial statements as of that date.

The note pays 7.0% per annum for the first twelve months and if not converted at that time the note will be adjusted to 7.7% per annum. The note is due September 13, 2005. Total expenses of issuance were $915,000. On September 13, 2000 we completed a transaction offering 250,000 shares of treasury stock to an individual at $5.50 share. We received gross proceeds of $1.4 million from this sale.
