                       INCARA PHARMACEUTICALS CORPORATION

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A.       Basis of Presentation
         ---------------------

         The Company is developing therapies focused on tissue protection,
repair and regeneration. In particular, the Company is focused on developing
adult liver cell therapy for the treatment of liver failure. The Company is also
conducting research and development of a series of catalytic antioxidant
molecules and, in collaboration with Elan Corporation, plc, an Irish company,
and its subsidiaries ("Elan"), is conducting a Phase 2/3 clinical trial of
deligoparin, an ultra-low molecular weight heparin for the treatment of
ulcerative colitis. Deligoparin was previously known as OP2000.

         The "Company" refers collectively to Incara Pharmaceuticals
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Incara Pharmaceuticals"), its two wholly
owned subsidiaries, Aeolus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Aeolus"), and Incara Cell Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Cell
Technologies"), as well as its equity investee, Incara Development, Ltd., a
Bermuda corporation ("Incara Development"). As of December 31, 2001, Incara
Pharmaceuticals owned 80.1% of Incara Development and 35.0% of CPEC LLC. While
Incara Pharmaceuticals owns 80.1% of the outstanding stock of Incara
Development, Elan has retained significant minority investor rights, including
50% control of the management committee which oversees the deligoparin program,
that are considered "participating rights" as defined in the Emerging Issues
Task Force Consensus No. 96-16. Accordingly, Incara Pharmaceuticals does not
consolidate the financial statements of Incara Development, but instead accounts
for its investment in Incara Development under the equity method of accounting.
Incara Development had net operating expenses and a net loss of approximately
$481,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2001 and no activity for the quarter
ended December 31, 2000.

         All significant intercompany activity has been eliminated in the
preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The unaudited consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of
Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Some information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to those rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the
accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly
the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the
Company. The consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2001 was derived from
the Company's audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included
herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001 and in the

                                       6



Company's other SEC filings. Results for the interim period are not necessarily
indicative of the results for any other period.

B.       Recent Accounting Pronouncements
         --------------------------------

         In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations," and SFAS No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS 141 supersedes Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 16, "Business Combinations," and is applicable for
all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. The most significant
provisions of SFAS 141 require (a) the application of the purchase method of
accounting for all business combinations; (b) the establishment of specific
criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill; and
(c) unallocated negative goodwill to be written off immediately as an
extraordinary gain. SFAS 142 supersedes APB No. 17, "Intangible Assets," and
first became effective for the Company's quarter ended December 31, 2001. The
most significant provisions of SFAS 142 provide (a) goodwill and indefinite
lived intangible assets can no longer be amortized; (b) goodwill and intangible
assets deemed to have an indefinite life must be tested at least annually for
impairment; and (c) the amortization period of intangible assets with finite
lives is no longer limited to forty years. Adopting SFAS 142 did not have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations as
the Company currently has no goodwill and no intangible assets.

C.       Net Loss Per Common Share
         -------------------------

         The Company computes basic net loss per weighted share attributable to
common stockholders using the weighted average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period. The Company computes diluted net loss per
weighted share attributable to common stockholders using the weighted average
number of shares of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding
during the period. Potential common shares consist of stock options, restricted
common stock, warrants and convertible preferred stock, which are excluded if
their effect is antidilutive. At December 31, 2001, diluted weighted average
common shares excluded incremental shares of approximately 6,052,000 related to
stock options, unvested shares of restricted common stock, convertible preferred
stock and warrants to purchase common and preferred stock. These shares are
excluded due to their antidilutive effect as a result of the Company's loss from
operations.

D.       Notes Payable
         -------------

         In October 2001, the Company executed a Master Loan and Security
Agreement with Transamerica Technology Finance Corporation to finance equipment
purchases. In October 2001, the Company borrowed $565,000 from Transamerica and
pledged equipment with a cost of $686,000 as collateral.

         In October 2001, Incara Pharmaceuticals borrowed $857,000 from Elan
pursuant to the terms of a note arrangement that it has with Elan. See
"Subsequent Event" (Note F).

                                       7



E.       Commitments and Contingencies
         -----------------------------

         In December 1999, Incara Pharmaceuticals sold IRL, its anti-infectives
division, to a private pharmaceutical company. Incara Pharmaceuticals remains
contingently liable through May 2007 on debt and lease obligations of
approximately $6,500,000 assumed by the purchaser, including the IRL facility
lease in Cranbury, New Jersey.

F.       Subsequent Event
         ----------------

         On February 13, 2002, the Company, with Elan's consent, converted
$1,400,000 of principal and accrued interest on a note payable owed by Incara
Pharmaceuticals to Elan into 480,000 shares of common stock and 58,883 shares of
Series B preferred stock. The $1,400,000 of principal and accrued interest
consisted of $857,000 of principal outstanding on December 31, 2001, $518,000
that Incara Pharmaceuticals borrowed under the note payable in February 2002 and
$25,000 of accrued interest on the note payable.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         -----------------------------------------------------------------------
         of Operations.
         --------------

Introduction
------------

         Unless otherwise noted, the phrase "we" or "our" refers collectively to
Incara Pharmaceuticals Corporation and our two wholly owned subsidiaries, Aeolus
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Incara Cell Technologies, Inc., as well as our equity
investee, Incara Development, Ltd. At December 31, 2001, Incara Pharmaceuticals
owned 80.1% of Incara Development.

         This Report contains, in addition to historical information, statements
by us with respect to expectations about our business and future results, which
are "forward-looking" statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995. These statements and other statements made elsewhere by us or our
representatives, which are identified or qualified by words such as "likely,"
"will," "suggests," "expects," "might," "believe," "could," "should," "may,"
"estimates," "potential," "predict," "continue," "would," "anticipates,"
"plans," or similar expressions, are based on a number of assumptions that are
subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from
those currently anticipated or suggested due to a number of factors, including
those set forth herein, those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in
our other SEC filings, and including risks relating to the need for additional
funds, the early stage of products under development, uncertainties relating to
clinical trials and regulatory reviews, competition and dependence on
collaborative partners. All forward-looking statements are based on information
available as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to update
such forward-looking statements.

         We are focused on the development of potential therapies for protection
and regeneration of tissue damaged by injury and disease. We currently have
programs in three areas: liver cell therapy and progenitor cell therapy as
treatments for liver failure; catalytic antioxidants as treatment for stroke and
other tissue damage; and deligoparin, an ultra-low molecular weight heparin
being developed with Elan Corporation through Incara Development, for treatment
of ulcerative colitis.

Results of Operations
---------------------

         We had a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $3,101,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 2001 versus a net loss of $1,639,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 2000. The net loss for the three months ended
December 31, 2001 was reduced by a $150,000 gain recognized on the sale of
trademarks for a discontinued program. The net loss for the three months ended
December 31, 2000 was reduced by a $767,000 gain recognized on the settlement of
a disputed accrued liability for a discontinued program.

         We had cell processing revenue of $35,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 2001. This revenue resulted from fees we earned for processing
liver cells that are used for research purposes by other pharmaceutical
companies.

                                        9



         Our research and development, or R&D, expenses increased $266,000 (15%)
to $2,073,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 from $1,807,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 2000. R&D expenses were higher this fiscal
quarter primarily due to significant increases in spending on our liver cell
therapy program, offset by a reduction in R&D expenses due to how expenses are
classified for our deligoparin program.

         Deligoparin expenses incurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2001
were $335,000, which were charged to R&D expenses. In January 2001, Incara
Pharmaceuticals transferred the rights to deligoparin to Incara Development.
Costs for deligoparin incurred after the transfer are on behalf of Incara
Development. Amounts billable to Incara Development for expenses incurred and
work performed by Incara Pharmaceuticals for deligoparin are netted against R&D
expenses. Subsequent to our investment in Incara Development, our expenses
associated with development of deligoparin flow through "Equity in loss of
Incara Development." For the first quarter of fiscal 2002, our equity in loss of
Incara Development was $338,000. As of January 31, 2002, we had enrolled 91
patients in our Phase 2/3 clinical trial at the 34 clinical sites that are
participating in the clinical trial. No unexpected safety issues have been
reported as of January 31, 2002.

         R&D expenses for Cell Technologies increased $824,000 (167%) to
$1,317,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2001 from $493,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 2000. Our research and development for the
treatment of liver disorders, using liver cell therapy, is conducted through
Incara Cell Technologies. Expenses were higher this quarter due to increased
activity in the program and the establishment of our own laboratory facility in
August 2001. We incurred increases in spending on laboratory supplies,
personnel, patent costs and sponsored research.

         R&D expenses for Aeolus increased $54,000 (8%) to $698,000 for the
three months ended December 31, 2001 from $644,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 2000. Our research and development of small molecule antioxidants
for disorders such as stroke and other tissue damage, is conducted through
Aeolus. Expenses were higher this quarter due to increased preclinical contract
services.

         General and administrative expenses decreased $20,000 (3%) to $663,000
for the three months ended December 31, 2001 from $683,000 for the three months
ended December 31, 2000.

         We accreted $214,000 of dividends on our Series C preferred stock
during the quarter ended December 31, 2001. From the date of issue until the
earlier of December 21, 2006 or the date the Series C preferred stock is
exchanged or converted, we will accrete the Series C preferred stock for the 7%
dividend, compounded annually from its recorded value up to its redemption
value.

                                       10



Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

         At December 31, 2001, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,870,000, a
decrease of $1,583,000 from September 30, 2001. Cash decreased primarily due to
the net loss of $2,887,000 for the first quarter offset by $1,437,000 proceeds
from notes payable.

         During the past two years, we have incurred average operational
expenses of approximately $10,000,000 per year, on an annualized basis,
including expenses of our R&D programs, but excluding non-cash charges for the
purchase of in-process research and development. We anticipate our annual net
operational costs to remain at approximately this level, or slightly higher,
during fiscal 2002 and for the foreseeable future, although our ongoing cash
requirements will depend on numerous factors, particularly the progress of our
R&D programs and our ability to negotiate and complete collaborative agreements.
Without additional financing or other funding, at our current spending level, we
would run out of cash during the third quarter of fiscal 2002. In order to fund
our on-going operating cash requirements, we need to raise significant
additional funds during 2002 and beyond. We intend to:

      .  establish new collaborations for our current research programs that
         include initial cash payments and on-going research support;

      .  sell additional shares of our stock; and

      .  borrow additional cash from Elan under the terms of an existing note
         arrangement that we have with Elan to meet our obligations for Incara
         Development.

         There are uncertainties as to all of these potential sources of
capital. Due to market conditions and other limitations on the stock offerings,
we might not be able to sell securities under these arrangements, or raise other
funds on terms acceptable or favorable to us. In our Proxy Statement for our
Annual Meeting to be held in March 2002, we are asking our stockholders to
approve the sale of up to $25 million of our securities. At times it is
difficult for biotechnology companies to raise funds in the equity markets. Any
additional equity financing, if available, would likely result in substantial
dilution to our stockholders.

         The continued funding of our operations is affected by our ability to
sell additional equity in the form of common or preferred stock. Our common
stock is not actively traded and the price of our common stock has fluctuated
from $1.00 to $11.00 during the last two years. Further, we must meet certain
minimum capital requirements set by the Nasdaq National Market. If we fail to
meet such listing requirements, our common stock might be delisted and become
more illiquid.

         Similarly, our access to capital might be restricted because we might
not be able to enter into collaborations for any of our programs or to enter
into any collaborations on terms acceptable or favorable to us due to conditions
in the pharmaceutical industry or in the economy in general or based on the
prospects of any of our programs. Even if we are successful in obtaining
collaborations for any of our programs, we might have to relinquish

                                       11



rights to technologies, product candidates or markets that we might otherwise
develop ourselves.

         We may borrow up to $4,806,000 through December 21, 2003 under the note
arrangement with Elan to fund our 80.1% pro rata interest in the operating costs
of Incara Development. We borrowed $857,000 under the note in October 2001 and
$518,000 in February 2002. Advances under the note are subject to the mutual
consent of Elan and Incara Pharmaceuticals. The note matures on December 21,
2006.

         If we are unable to enter into new collaborations or raise additional
capital to continue to support our operations, we will be required to scale
back, delay or discontinue one or more of our programs, which could have a
material adverse affect on our business. Reduction or discontinuation of any of
our programs could result in additional charges, which would be reflected in the
period of the reduction or discontinuation.

         The following pro forma balance sheet reflects the effects of the
borrowing of an additional $518,000 from Elan in February 2002 pursuant to the
note arrangement and the conversion to equity of $1,400,000 of debt owed to Elan
in February 2002, as if the events had taken place as of December 31, 2001.
