NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 OVERVIEW

Nabi is focused on the discovery, development and commercialization of products
that prevent and treat infectious and autoimmune diseases. We are nearing
completion of a multi-year transition from being a leading provider of antibody
products into becoming a vertically integrated biopharmaceutical company. We
currently have an extensive pipeline of innovative drugs and vaccines in
clinical and pre-clinical development and have four marketed biopharmaceutical
products: Nabi-HB(TM) [Hepatitis B Immune Globulin (Human)], WinRho SDF(R)
[Rho (D) Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human)], Autoplex(R) T
[Anti-Inhibitor Coagulant Complex, Heat Treated] and Aloprim(TM) [(Allopurinol
sodium) for Injection]. We are also one of the largest collectors and suppliers
of specialty and non-specific antibody products in the world. We collect these
products from an extensive donor base in the U.S. Some of these antibodies are
used in the production of our biopharmaceutical products. Most are supplied to
other biopharmaceutical and diagnostic companies for the manufacture of numerous
products.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nabi and its
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were
eliminated during consolidation. These statements should be read in conjunction
with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2000.

In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements
include all adjustments necessary to present fairly, our consolidated financial
position as of March 31, 2001 and the consolidated results of our operations and
cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and April 1, 2000. The
interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may occur for the fiscal year.

</TABLE>


FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001 AND APRIL 1, 2000

SALES. Sales for the first quarter of 2001 were $60.2 million compared to $55.8
million for the first quarter of 2000, an increase of $4.4 million or 8%.
Biopharmaceutical product sales decreased in the first quarter of 2001 by
approximately 7% from the 2000 first quarter due to lower sales of Autoplex(R) T
[Anti-Inhibitor Coagulant Complex, Heat Treated] which continue to be limited by
contract production issues at the manufacturer for this product and lower sales
of WinRho SDF(R) [Rho (D) Immune Globulin Intravenous (Human)].

Total antibody sales increased by almost 14% from the comparable quarter in
2000. Non-specific antibody product sales increased 20%, due primarily to higher
pricing combined with increased volume. Sales of specialty antibodies increased
3% led by Anti-Tetanus and Anti-Rabies sales. These results were offset by
planned decreases in sales of Anti-D and Anti-HBs specialty antibodies.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN AFTER ROYALTY EXPENSE. Gross profit and related margin for
the first quarter of 2001 was $13.6 million, or 23% of sales, compared to $14.5
million, or 26% of sales, in the first quarter of 2000. Gross profit margin in
the first quarter of 2001 was impacted by an inventory reserve primarily related
to product dating. Gross profit margin benefited from a non-performance penalty
due to us as a result of contractual delivery shortfalls by the supplier of
Autoplex T. Royalty expense in the first quarter of 2001 was $2.4 million, or 4%
of biopharmaceutical product sales, compared to $2.9 million, or 5% of
biopharmaceutical product sales in the first quarter of 2000. The decrease in
royalty expense in 2001 resulted from lower royalties for Nabi-HB, since our
royalty obligation to Abbott Laboratories ended December 31, 2000.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. Selling, general and administrative
expense was $8.9 million, or 15% of sales, for the first quarter of 2001
compared to $8.4 million, or 15% of sales, in the first quarter of 2000. The
increase primarily reflects an increase in sales and marketing expenses for
sales force expansion to support anticipated growth in the biopharmaceutical
business in 2001.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE. Research and development expense was $3.0
million, or 5% of sales, for the first quarter of 2001 compared to $4.0 million,
or 7% of sales, in the first quarter of 2000. The decrease is due primarily to
the completion of the pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial for Nabi(R) StaphVAX(R)
[STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS Polysaccharide Conjugate Vaccine] during 2000. First



9
10


quarter results also benefited from reimbursement under a grant from the
National Institute of Health for the Nabi(R) NicVAX(TM) [Nicotine Conjugate
Vaccine] program.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the first quarter of 2001 was $0.5
million, or 1% of sales, compared to $1.0 million, or 2% of sales, in the first
quarter of 2000. The decrease is primarily attributable to higher amounts of
interest capitalized during the first quarter of 2001. Capitalized interest
relating to construction of our biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Boca
Raton, Florida was approximately $1.6 million and $1.3 million for the quarters
ending March 31, 2001 and April 1, 2000, respectively. Once our Boca Raton,
Florida facility is ready for its intended use, interest and other costs
currently being capitalized will become expenses. Licensure of the Boca Raton,
Florida facility for the manufacture of Nabi-HB is expected to occur in 2001. At
that time, we will also begin to depreciate the capitalized cost of the plant.
The total capitalized value of the facility was approximately $83.0 million at
March 31, 2001.

OTHER FACTORS. The provision for income taxes was $36 thousand for the first
quarter of 2001 compared to a provision of $22 thousand in the first quarter of
2000. The 5% effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2001 differs from the
statutory rate of 35% due to our expectation of realizing a current year benefit
from the use of a portion of our net operating loss carryforwards from prior
years.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 2001, our credit agreement provided for a revolving credit facility
of up to $45.0 million subject to certain borrowing base restrictions, and a
$4.1 million term loan. The credit agreement matures in September 2002.
Borrowings under the revolving credit and term loan agreement totaled $29.7
million at March 31, 2001 as compared to $31.0 million at December 30, 2000, and
additional availability was approximately $5.0 million at March 31, 2001. The
credit agreement is secured by substantially all of our assets, requires the
maintenance of certain financial covenants and prohibits the payment of
dividends.

As of March 31, 2001, our current assets exceeded current liabilities by $37.7
million as compared to a net working capital position of $39.6 million at
December 30, 2000. Cash at March 31, 2001 was $2.3 million compared to $1.6
million at December 30, 2000. Cash provided from operations for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 was $5.9 million versus $3.3 million for the three months
ended April 1, 2000. During the first quarter of each of 2001 and 2000,
reductions in accounts receivable and inventory were offset by a reduction of
accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The primary uses of cash during the
three months ended March 31, 2001 and April 1, 2000 were capital expenditures,
$4.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, principally associated with our
biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Boca Raton, Florida, and a reduction
of borrowings under the revolving credit facility and term loan, $1.2 million
and $0.3 million, respectively. Additionally, in the three months ended April 1,
2000, we realized $3.1 million of proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

The biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility requires FDA licensure to produce
biopharmaceutical products for sale in the U.S. Projected capital expenditures
for 2001 include the anticipated costs of completion to prepare the facility for
its intended use of approximately $11.3 million, including capitalized interest
and antibody collection center renovations. We believe that cash flow from
operations and our available bank credit facilities will be sufficient to meet
our anticipated cash requirements for 2001. We are also in the process of
seeking additional cash to fund the development of our biopharmaceutical product
pipeline from strategic alliances and may seek additional funding from new or
existing credit facilities and equity placements.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

The parts of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q captioned "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and
"Legal Proceedings" contain certain forward-looking statements, which involve
risks and uncertainties. These statements are based on current expectations,
estimates and projections about the industries in which we operate, management's
beliefs and assumptions made by management. Readers should refer to a discussion
under "Factors to be Considered" contained in Nabi's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 30, 2000 concerning certain factors that could cause
our actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated in such
forward-looking statements. Said discussion is hereby incorporated by reference
into this Quarterly Report.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have not been any material changes in our exposure to market risk during
the three months ended March 31, 2001 which would require an update to the
disclosures provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 30, 2000.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are a party to litigation in the ordinary course of business. We do not
believe that such litigation will have a material adverse effect on our future
business, financial position or results of operations.

We are a co-defendant with various other parties in one suit filed in the U.S.
by, or on behalf of, individuals who claim to have been infected with HIV as a
result of either using HIV-contaminated products made by the defendants other
than us or having familial relations with those so infected. The claims against
us are based on negligence and strict liability. Several similar suits
previously pending against us, including a purported class action, have been
dismissed.

We deny all claims against us in these suits and intend to defend these cases
vigorously. We believe that any such litigation will not have a material adverse
effect on our future business, financial position or results of operations.

We have advised Baxter Healthcare Corporation (Baxter) that we are terminating a
contract to supply antibodies to Baxter. The contract, by its terms, extends
until December 31, 2004. We believe the contract permits us to terminate it if
it becomes commercially unreasonable for us to perform under the contract.
Baxter is contesting this termination and has invoked an arbitration provision
in the contract to resolve the controversy. We have asserted counterclaims
against Baxter in the arbitration proceeding.

ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K

We did not file any Exhibits or reports on Form 8-K during the three months
ended March 31, 2001.
