ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

TARGETED GENETICS CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed financial statements included herein have been prepared
by Targeted Genetics Corporation (the "Company"), without audit, according to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial statements
reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which consist solely of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position
and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated. The results of
operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997, are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 2. Loss Per Share

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement No. 128, Earnings per Share ("Statement 128"), which is required to be
adopted on December 31, 1997. At that time, the Company will be required to
change the method currently used to compute earnings per share and to restate
all prior periods presented. The impact of Statement 128 on the calculation of
net loss per share for all current and prior periods is not expected to be
material.


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

Risks and Uncertainties

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those projected. The Company's future cash requirements and
expense levels will depend on many factors, including continued scientific
progress in its research and development programs; the results of research and
development, preclinical studies and clinical trials; acquisition of products or
technology, if any; relationships with corporate collaborators; competing
technological and market developments; the time and costs involved in filing,
prosecuting and enforcing patent claims; the time and costs of manufacturing
scale-up and commercialization activities; and other factors. Reference is made
to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for more detailed description of
such factors. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these
forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. The
Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any
revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events
or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Financial Condition

The Company had $15.6 million in cash, cash equivalents and
securities available for sale as of March 31, 1997, compared to $19.1 million at
December 31, 1996. The change was primarily attributable to the use of $3.2
million to fund operations and $397,000 to purchase property, plant and
equipment, offset by the receipt of $277,000 for the exercise of warrants by
existing shareholders.

The Company is a development stage company conducting gene and cell
therapy research and development. Income earned from investments and, to a
lesser degree, revenues under collaborative agreements have been its only
sources of revenue, covering less than ten percent of expenses. Gene and cell
therapy products are subject to the risks of failure inherent in the development
of products based on innovative technologies. Although the Company's technology
appears promising, it is unknown whether any commercially viable products will
result from the research and development. It is not anticipated that the Company
will have any product-related revenues for a number of years. Accordingly, the
Company expects to incur substantial additional losses over the next several
years and to use its capital resources to fund preclinical and clinical research
programs, development of manufacturing capabilities and the preparation for
commercialization of its products under development.

The Company currently estimates that, at its planned rate of
spending, its existing cash, cash equivalents and securities available for sale
will be sufficient to meet its capital requirements until at least early 1998.
Such estimates include the impact of future milestone payments potentially
receivable under existing collaborative agreements. There can be no assurance
that such milestone payments will be received or that the underlying assumed
levels of revenue and expense will prove to be accurate. In any event,
substantial additional funds will be needed to continue the development and
commercialization of the Company's products. Accordingly, the Company is seeking
to establish additional collaborative agreements with corporate partners that
would provide research and development funding and equity investment. The
Company also may seek to raise additional equity capital whenever conditions in
the financial markets allow it to do so. There can be no assurance, however,
that adequate funds will be available when needed or will be available on terms
favorable to the Company, if at all.


Results of Operations

The Company's net loss has grown from year-to-year, consistent with
the growth in the Company's scope and size of operations. In the near term, the
Company does not expect additional growth in employee headcount or facilities;
however, the Company estimates that operating expenses will continue to increase
moderately as a result of continuing with its current operating plan, which
includes growth in the level of clinical trial activity. At least until such
time as the Company enters into a collaborative arrangement providing a
significant amount of research and development funding, the net loss is expected
to continue to increase as well.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

Results of Operations (continued)

For the three months ended March 31, 1997, revenue under
collaborative agreements was $77,000. The revenue primarily consists of amounts
recoverable from Laboratoires Fournier S.C.A. related to tgDCC-E1A process
development activities.

For the three months ended March 31, 1997, investment income
increased to $230,000 compared to $184,000 during the three months ended March
31, 1996. The increase was largely attributable to higher average cash balances
for investment in 1997 compared to the same period in 1996.

Other revenue was $98,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997.
The revenue represents proceeds from Small Business Innovation Research grants
awarded by the National Institutes of Health.

Research and development expenses were $3.1 million for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, and $2.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 1996. Expenses that resulted directly from the acquisition of RGene
Therapeutics Inc., specifically costs related to the continuation of the
acquired research, development and clinical programs, were largely responsible
for the increase in 1997. Additional factors that contributed to the increase
were a moderate increase in the level of preclinical research activities and
continued progression of the Company's clinical trial programs.

General and administrative expenses were $743,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997, and $617,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1996. The increase was primarily attributable to an increased level of corporate
development activities focused on the completion of additional corporate
collaborations.
