NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

NOTE A -    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
            statements of Bionutrics, Inc. ("the Company") have been prepared in
            accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
            United States of America for interim financial information and the
            instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the
            information and footnotes required by accounting principles
            generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
            financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
            (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
            present fairly the financial position, results of operations and
            cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results of
            operations for the three-month period ended January 31, 2002 are not
            necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected
            for the entire year ending October 31, 2002. These unaudited
            condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
            conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and
            accompanying notes thereto as of and for the year ended October 31,
            2001. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
            have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
            realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the
            normal course of business. The Company has incurred operating losses
            of $39,214,019 through January 31, 2002, which have been funded
            through the issuance of stock and debt. The losses incurred to date,
            the uncertainty regarding the ability to raise additional capital
            and the Company's inability to generate gross profits and positive
            cash flows from operations raise substantial doubt about whether the
            Company will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable
            period of time.

NOTE B-     Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net
            loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
            during the presented periods. Options and warrants are excluded from
            the diluted net loss per share calculation, as they are
            anti-dilutive.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS INCLUDES CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. WHEN USED IN THIS
REPORT, THE WORDS "EXPECTS," "INTENDS," "PLANS" AND "ANTICIPATE" AND SIMILAR
TERMS ARE INTENDED TO IDENTIFY FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT RELATE TO THE
COMPANY'S FUTURE PERFORMANCE. SUCH STATEMENTS INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES.
THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THE RESULTS DISCUSSED

FORM 10-K.


RESULT OF OPERATIONS - Three months ended January 31, 2002 compared with three
months ended January 31, 2001.

Consolidated net revenues for the quarter ended January 31, 2002 were $9,000
compared to $8,000 for the same quarter in 2001, summarized by subsidiary as
follows:

Bionutrics Health Products continues to sell its remaining evolvE(R) inventory.
The Company does not expect evolvE(R) will contribute significant revenue to its
operations in the future. The Company is repositioning itself as a product
development company and as such is engaged in discussions with several potential
marketing partners involving future branded products including dietary
supplements and functional food products. The Company has announced that it has
two new cardiovascular products under the brand names, "VITENOL E(R) 20/20 - For
Heart & Health" and "CARDIO-CIN(TM) - For Heart and Health" that are ready for
market. Vitenol E is a rice bran extract and is a more effective antioxidant
than standard vitamin E. CARDIO-CIN is based on Bionutrics's patented niacin
and soluble fiber composition. These products are targeted to the cholesterol
dietary supplement market. However, they are not currently being marketed
because of the Company's lack of resources.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended January 31, 2002 was $5,000 compared
to $7,000 for the same three months in 2001. This reduction is primarily due to
lower sales volume of evolvE(R).

Operating expenses for the three months ended January 31, 2002 of $772,000 were
$164,000 more than that recognized for the same three months in 2001 of
$608,000. This increase is due to an increase in expenditures for legal and
accounting services.

Equity in the (loss) income of InCon Processing, LLC was a loss of $140,000 for
the three months ended January 31, 2002 compared to income of $5,000 for the
same period in the prior year. The Company records its share of InCon
Processing's (loss) income using the equity method.

Interest expense was $106,000 for the three months ended January 31, 2002
compared to income of $7,000 for the same period in the prior year. This
$113,000 difference is due to the interest expense associated with the issuance
of the multiple advance non-revolving note.

InCon Processing has a fiscal year-end of August 31. The Company's equity in the
joint venture's operations for the three months ended November 30, 2001 and 2000
are included in the Company's statement of operations as if they had the same
fiscal quarter. Results of Operations for InCon Processing for the 3 months
ended November 30, 2001 and 2000 are as follows:

</TABLE>


Net loss increased to $1,013,000 or $.23 per basic and diluted share for the
three months ended January 31, 2002 compared to $593,000, or $.13 per basic and
diluted share for the three months ended January 31, 2001 due primarily to the
increase in both operating and other expenses as outlined above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - Net cash used in operating activities during
the three-month period ended January 31, 2002 was $309,000 as compared to
$546,000 during the same period in 2001. This decrease is due primarily to the
Company's cash conservation efforts.

The Company did not generate any cash from investing activities during the three
months ended January 31, 2002 and January 31, 2001.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $222,000 for the three-month
period that ended January 31, 2002 compared to $298,000 for the same period in
2001. The cash provided during the quarter ended January 31, 2002 was from the
issuance of debt, while the cash provided during the quarter ended January 31,
2001 was from the sale of stock.

In October 2001, the Company executed an amended and restated consolidated
multiple advance non-revolving note to borrow up to $700,000 from certain
directors, a stockholder and an unrelated party. The amount borrowed on October
31, 2001 was $583,000. The note agreement requires a fixed interest payment of
$140,000 if the full $700,000 is borrowed, which results in an effective
interest rate of 36.5 percent. The note payable is secured by the assets of the
Company. The note was payable in full on January 2, 2002 and is convertible, at
the option of the lenders, into shares of the Company's common stock at the rate
of $1.00 per share. On January 30, 2002, the note was amended to increase the
amount that can be borrowed to $860,000, the fixed interest payment to $172,000
if the full $860,000 is borrowed, and to extend the due date to March 1, 2002.
As of March 1, 2002, the amount borrowed under the note was $854,500. The
parties are currently discussing the terms of an extension.

In August, 2001, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement with
Pharmaceutical Marketing Brands, Inc. (PMB), as nominee, for the purchase of 49%
of the Company and options to purchase 5,000,000 shares of common stock at $1.00
per share, for $5 million. This agreement was amended on October 5, 2001, to
assign PMB's rights, as nominee, to its principal HealthSTAR Holding LLC and to
provide for an increase in the investment from $5 million to a minimum of $6.5
million up to a maximum of $10 million at $1.00 per share of common stock and
for the Company to sell such shares

                                      -8-
<PAGE>
directly to institutional and or accredited investors subject to a voting
agreement among the parties. The agreement was further amended on October 31,
2001 to essentially extend the closing date as well as provide for the issuance
of 5,227,000 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.00 per share to
HealthSTAR in exchange for a 5-year, interest-bearing promissory note. The
amendment also eliminated the 5,000,000 stock options at $1.00 per share. The
Company has subsequently agreed to enter into certain strategic agreements and
purchase certain assets in the field of pharmaceutical marketing services. On
December 28, 2001, the agreement was amended to extend the initial closing date
for the purchase of a minimum number of shares to January 31, 2002 and allow for
one or more subsequent closings until March 31, 2002. On January 29, 2002, the
agreement was amended to extend the initial closing date until March 1, 2002,
with subsequent closings on or before May 1, 2002. The parties are discussing
the terms of an extension and a closing date. There can be no assurance that
this stock purchase agreement with HealthSTAR will close.

In September 2000, the Company and Justicia Holdings Ltd. entered into a common
stock Purchase Agreement for the future issuance and purchase of shares of the
Company's common stock. The Agreement establishes what is sometimes termed as an
equity line of credit or an equity draw down facility. The Agreement permits the
company, in its discretion, and subject to certain restrictions, to sell up to
an aggregate of 800,000 shares, with the maximum amount for each sale not to
exceed $1,000,000 each month, based on a formula of weighted average price and
total trading volume for a given period. The period during which the Company can
make such sales is two years beginning upon the effective date of a registration
statement for the resale of the shares. The price is based on the volume
weighted average daily price of the Company's common stock for the 22 trading
days following a draw down notice. Drawdowns are available every 29 trading
days. The current stock price and trading volume severely limit the amount
available to the Company at any one drawdown period. The common stock purchase
agreement with Justicia Holdings Ltd limits the Company's ability to sell its
securities for cash at a discount to the market price pursuant to an equity line
type financing for 24 months from the effective date of the registration
statement filed on December 28, 2000 or 60 days after the entire 800,000 shares
have been purchased. The Company is not permitted to drawdown on the equity line
until the registration statement filed on Justicia's behalf becomes effective.
The Company intends to continue to pursue such registration statement during
fiscal year 2002. There is no assurance that the registration statement will
become effective.

The Company requires additional financing of at least $3,000,000 to support its
general working capital needs such as salaries and administrative expenses for
the next 12 months, as well as to fund the research and development costs
necessary to complete the launch of its recently developed products. If the
Company were in a position to begin phase II trials, it would require at least
an additional $500,000. The Company is currently in negotiations to secure this
necessary capital through equity private placements as well as debt financing.
The Company does not at this time have any committed sources of financing, other
than the Justicia equity line of credit, the terms of which currently prohibit
the Company from drawing down any funds. There can be no assurance that
additional financing will be attainable on terms acceptable to the Company, or
at all, at such time as the Company's needs may require. Access to additional
capital will depend substantially upon prevailing market conditions, and the
Company's financial condition and prospects at the time. On July 18, 2001, the
Company's common stock was delisted from the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, and the
shares are currently quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, activity in
the Company's common stock has declined substantially, which could adversely
affect the Company's ability to raise necessary capital. Such additional
financing may not be attainable, or attainable on terms acceptable to the
Company. Access to additional capital will depend substantially upon prevailing
market conditions, and the financial condition of and prospects for the Company
at the time.


                                      -9-

The Company has made application for a loan in the amount of $5,000,000 to a
lender that specializes in loans secured by intellectual properties. If the
Company were successful in obtaining this loan, it would receive $5,000,000 cash
(less closing costs and points estimated to total $350,000) and would be
required to place $5,000,000 of debt on its financial statement. The terms of
this agreement are presently being discussed. There is no assurance the Company
will succeed in obtaining this loan or that, if successful in obtaining the loan
that the terms and conditions will be as described herein.

The loan will be secured by a "pod" of six patents owned by the Company's
subsidiary, LipoGenics, Inc. If the Company defaults on the loan's interest
payments, loan repayment or other material provisions of the loan agreements,
the lender would be entitled to foreclose on the collateral and, in such case,
the Company would lose the patents and all associated rights. The loss of these
patents would have a material adverse effect on the Company.
