ACCOUNTANTS REVIEW REPORT
We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Advanced Biotherapy, Inc., (a development stage company) as of March 31, 2002, and the related statements of operations, stockholders equity (deficit), and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the period from December 2, 1985 (inception) to March 31, 2002. All information included in these financial statements is the representation of the management of Advanced Biotherapy, Inc.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001 were audited by us and we expressed an unqualified opinion on it in our report dated February 26, 2002. We have not performed any auditing procedures since that date.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has generated little revenue in the past years, and has suffered recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $5,244,629 at March 31, 2002. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding this issue are also discussed in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Advanced Biotherapy, Inc. was originally incorporated December 2, 1985 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company is involved in the research and development of the treatment of autoimmune diseases in humans, most notably, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The Company conducts its research in Maryland. The Companys fiscal year-end is December 31. The Company is a development stage enterprise.
On July 14, 2000, the Company incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary, Advanced Biotherapy, Inc. in the state of Delaware. On September 1, 2000, the Company merged with its wholly owned subsidiary, effectively changing its name to Advanced Biotherapy, Inc. (hereinafter the Company) and its domicile to Delaware.
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of Advanced Biotherapy, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Companys financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Companys management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Development Stage Activities
The Company has been in the development stage since its formation in 1985 and has not realized any significant revenues from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the research and development of the treatment of autoimmune diseases in humans, most notably, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $176,203 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. At March 31, 2002, the Company has an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $5,244,629. The future of the Company is dependent upon future profitable operations from the commercial success of its medical research and development of products to combat diseases of the human immune system. Management has established plans designed to increase the capitalization of the Company and is actively seeking additional capital that will provide funds needed to fund the research and development and therefore the internal growth of the Company in order to fully implement its business plans. For the twelve-month period subsequent to March 31, 2002, the Company anticipates that its minimum cash requirements to continue as a going concern will be less than $800,000. The anticipated source of funds may be the issuance for cash of additional debt and/or equity instruments. In addition, management is actively seeking a collaborative relationship with either a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company. If successful, cash requirements may be met through royalty or licensing fees. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Accounting Method
The Companys financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.
Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities. This statement provides accounting and reporting standards for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishment of liabilities and also provides consistent standards for distinguishing transfers of financial assets that are sales from transfers that are secured borrowings. SFAS No. 140 is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000, and is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. The Company believes that the adoption of this standard will not have a material effect on the Companys results of operations or financial position.
In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 provides for the elimination of the pooling-of-interests method of accounting for business combinations with an acquisition date of July 1, 2001 or later. SFAS No. 142 prohibits the amortization of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives and requires periodic reassessment of the underlying value of such assets for impairment. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. An early adoption provision exists for companies with fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. On October 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142. Application of the nonamortization provision of SFAS No. 142 has not effected the Companys financial statements. The Company does not have assets with indeterminate lives.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations (SFAS No. 143). SFAS No. 143 establishes guidelines related to the retirement of tangible long-lived assets of the Company and the associated retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for the fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002 and with earlier application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS No. 143 and does not believe that the adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144). SFAS 144 replaces SFAS 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. This new standard establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued operations. Statement 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations. This statement is effective beginning for fiscal years after December 15, 2001, with earlier application encouraged. The Company adopted SFAS 144 and does not believe that the adoption will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Interim Financial Statements
The interim financial statements as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, included herein, have been prepared for the Company without audit. These statements reflect all adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the results of operations for these periods. All such adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.
Accounting for Stock Options and Warrants Granted to Employees and Non-employees
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS No. 123), defines a fair value-based method of accounting for stock options and other equity instruments. The Company has adopted this method, which measures compensation costs based on the estimated fair value of the award and recognizes that cost over the service period.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all bank accounts, certificates of deposit, money market accounts and short-term debt securities purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Provision for Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to SFAS No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences on future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the more likely than not standard imposed by SFAS No. 109 to allow recognition of such an asset.
At March 31, 2002, the Company had net deferred tax assets of approximately $1,105,000, principally arising from net operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset has been established.
At March 31, 2002, the Companys net operating loss carryforwards amount to approximately $4,420,000, which expires in the years 2002 through 2022. At December 31, 2001, approximately $288,000 of net operating losses expired. Approximately $878,000 of net operating losses will expire on December 31, 2002.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Use of Estimates
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. These reclassifications have resulted in no changes to the Companys accumulated deficit or net losses presented.
Promotional Fees
Promotional fees are charged to operations in the year incurred. Promotional fees amounted to $240 and $1,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.
Research and Development Costs
Costs of research and development are expensed as incurred.
Compensated Absences
Employees of the Company are entitled to paid vacation, paid sick days and personal days off, depending on job classification, length of service, and other factors. It is impracticable to estimate the amount of compensation for future absences, and, accordingly, no liability has been recorded in the accompanying financial statements. The Companys policy is to recognize the costs of compensated absences when actually paid to employees.
Revenue Recognition
Upon entering into license agreements with other companies, revenue will be recognized when fees are received. Prior to 1994, revenues were recognized when fees for services related to research activities were received.
Deferred Loan Origination Fees
During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company entered into convertible subordinated debt, which required the payment of loan origination fees. See Note 13. These loan origination fees, which totaled $67,863, net of accumulated amortization at March 31, 2002, are amortized over the life of the related debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company recorded amortization expense in the amount of $6,928 related to these fees.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Derivative Instruments
The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended by SFAS No. 137, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB No. 133, and SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, which is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2001. These standards establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. They require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value.
If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, the objective of which is to match the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging derivative with the recognition of (i) the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk or (ii) the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transaction. For a derivative not designated as a hedging instrument, the gain or loss is recognized in income in the period of change.
Historically, the Company has not entered into derivatives contracts to hedge existing risks or for speculative purposes.
At March 31, 2002, the Company has not engaged in any transactions that would be considered derivative instruments or hedging activities.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts for cash, deposits, prepaid expenses, receivables, accounts payable, loans and notes payable, accrued liabilities, and convertible debt approximate their fair value.
Internal Gain On Sale of Securities
During the year ending December 31, 2000, officers of the Company sold stock at a gain shortly after purchasing stock through a stock bonus plan. In compliance with the Securities and Exchange Rule 16b, the stockholders remitted the gain to the Company. The gain amounted to $157,520 and is reflected in the income statement as internal gain on sale of securities.
NOTE 3 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of three to five years.

NOTE 4 INVESTMENTS
The Companys investments in debt securities that are intended to be held for an indefinite period, yet not to maturity, are classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value under investments in other assets on the balance sheet with the change in fair value during the period excluded from earnings and recorded net of tax as a component of other comprehensive income. During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company liquidated its investment in a single corporate bond at no gain or loss.

Stock Bonus Plan
On January 11, 2000, the Company issued 9,200,000 shares of common stock to certain key officers and directors under a stock bonus plan, subject to various restrictions. The plans purpose is to keep personnel of experience and ability in the employ of the Company and to compensate them for their contributions to the growth of the Company, thereby inducing them to continue to make such contributions in the future. Such stock bonuses were issued at the weighted average price at which the Company had been selling shares of stock out of authorized but yet unissued common stock to third parties during the six months immediately preceding the issuance of the bonus shares, or $0.05.
Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan
During December 2000, the board of directors of the Company approved an Equity Incentive Plan. A maximum of 4,000,000 shares of common stock will be available for the incentive plan with annual increases equal to the lesser of 2.5% of outstanding shares or 250,000 shares.
NOTE 9 PREFERRED STOCK

NOTE 10 STOCK OPTIONS AND ISSUANCE COMMITMENTS
On February 25, 1991, the Corporation granted non-statutory options to purchase stock to members of its board of directors, officers, and outside consultants. These options offer a total of 860,000 shares at a price of $0.20 per share with an exercise period of February 25, 1991 to February 25, 2001. The expiration date of these options was extended to February 25, 2002 at which time the options expired. Additional options were issued effective February 1, 1993, for a total of 250,000 shares at a price of $0.01 per share, with an exercise period of February 1, 1993 to February 1, 2003.

During 1996, options for 525,000 shares were granted at $0.10 per share, which expire in 2006. The shares purchased will be restricted and, therefore, may not be transferred without registration under applicable federal and state securities laws.
Stock options granted to a director of the Company for 325,000 shares at a price of $0.01 were exercised in 1997. On December 31, 1999, three officers of the Company received 842,953 stock options in partial payment of accrued salaries in the amount of $210,738. In addition the same three officers forgave the balance of their accrued salaries and interest in the amount of $1,482,209. See Note 6. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, the fair value of the options was estimated using the Black Scholes Option Price Calculation. The following assumptions were made to value the stock options: strike price at $0.10, risk free interest rate of 5%, expected life of 5 years, and expected volatility of 30% and no dividends are expected to be paid. At December 31, 1999, the Company recorded $210,738 ($0.25 per option) to reduce accrued wages for the value of these options based upon these Black Scholes assumptions.

NOTE 11 INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of shares is calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding.

NOTE 11 INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE (Continued)
Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) adjusted for interest expense on convertible debt by the weighted average number of basic shares outstanding increased by the number of shares that would be outstanding assuming conversion of the stock options, warrants, and convertible debt. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share as inclusion of the common stock equivalents would be antidilutive. All effective dilutions are reflected in the accompanying statements of operations.

NOTE 14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Consulting Contract
During July 2000, the Company signed a contract with a consultant to provide information on possible partnering companies to divest or license certain rights to its technologies or products. The contract called for the payment of a $5,000 monthly retainer. This contract could be cancelled with a 60 day written notice. On January 24, 2001, the contract was modified to waive the termination notice, and was terminated effective February 1, 2001. Subsequently, in November 2001, the Company renegotiated this contract and signed a new six-month contract to provide information on possible partnering companies to divest or license certain rights to its technologies or products. The contract calls for the issuance of a stock option to purchase 250,000 shares of the Companys stock at $0.25 per share, exercisable for ten years. The option has piggyback registration rights to be effective in the next SEC registration statement. See Note 10. The Company also agreed to pay a success fee based on a percentage of the transaction value of any divestiture or license brought about by this contract. In addition, if the success fee is earned by the consultant, the Company will issue a warrant to the consultant to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock at a 10% discount of fair market value.
Office Lease
During January 2001, the Company signed an office lease agreement for three years beginning March 1, 2001. The lease called for monthly rental payments of $3,600 plus its portion of operating expenses with an annual escalation clause of 4%. The lease required a $15,580 deposit. Effective June 28, 2001, the Company cancelled this lease and has received a refund of the deposit. The cost of such cancellation included the payment of rent for the months of July and August 2001 in the amount of $7,200, and the payment of a brokers commission of approximately $6,700.
NOTE 15 RESTATEMENT OF WEIGHTED AVERAGE SHARES
During the quarter ended March 31, 2002, it was discovered that the Company mistakenly cancelled 850,000 shares of common stock in 1999. Under the terms of a settlement agreement and mutual general release and an escrow agreement each dated July 31, 1991 (collectively referred to as settlement agreements) among the Company, a shareholder, a consultant and certain other parties, the Company issued 850,000 shares in the name of the consultant and placed these shares into escrow. These shares were to be released to the consultant upon performance of certain services that were to be provided by the consultant no later than January 15, 1993. The settlement agreements also stated that the 850,000 shares of common stock would be distributed back to the original shareholder, if such services were not provided by the consultant. Such services were not provided by the consultant, in whole or in part, and all 850,000 shares were cancelled by the Company in 1999. However, instead of being cancelled the shares should have been returned to the original shareholder in 1999 pursuant to the settlement agreements. Therefore, the shares were reissued to the original shareholder and are reflected in the accompanying financial statements as if they were never cancelled.
The effect of this restatement is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2001:

NOTE 16 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In April 2002, the Company granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock to a consultant for services. The value of the options granted will be charged against consulting expenses during the second quarter.
For the period April 1, 2002, through May 8, 2002 (Subsequent Event Period), the Company sold in a private placement to accredited investors its 2002 subordinated convertible pay-in-kind notes due September 30, 2004 (2002 convertible notes), in the principal amount of $593,000 in cash. The 2002 convertible notes bear interest at the rate of 11% per annum payable semi-annually in cash or additional 2002 convertible notes. In connection with the placement by a broker/dealer of $75,000 principal amount of such 2002 convertible notes, the Company is obligated to pay a placement fee of 7.0%, in cash, together with an option to purchase 10% of the private placed amount or a warrant to acquire 10% of the shares which the private placement amount is converted, at a price equal to that paid by other investors in the note offering. No placement or finders fees are payable on $518,000 of such $593,000 principal amount of 2002 convertible notes placed through May 8, 2002. The 2002 convertible notes are convertible into shares of Company Common Stock at a conversion price per share equal to twenty-five cents ($0.25), subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. The Company offered the 2002 convertible notes pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D. The proceeds from the placement of 2002 convertible notes will be used to satisfy outstanding payables and to pay operating costs, including salaries to key personnel, scientific development costs and patent application legal costs, and to pursue certain collaborative relationships with other biotechnology or pharmaceutical companies.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section entitled Item 1. Business, and all subsections therein, including, without limitation, the subsections entitled, Technical Background, Government Regulation, Federal Drug Administration Regulation, Competition and Factors That May Affect the Company, and the section entitled Market for Registrants Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters, all contained in the Companys Annual Report (Form 10-KSB) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001.

Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2002, the Company had issued and outstanding 42,570,578 shares of its Common Stock. The Company is a development stage company and has no material assets other than cash. The Company had $16,076 in cash as of March 31, 2002. For the twelve-month period subsequent to March 31, 2002, the Company anticipates that its minimum cash requirements to continue as a going concern will be less than $800,000. In order to meet the foregoing cash requirements, the Company will have to raise funds through the issuance for cash of equity securities, convertible debt or loans. See Part II, Item 2. of this Form 10-QSB for a description of the Companys recent private placement of additional convertible debt. There is no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital to meet its minimum cash requirements for the next 12 months. In addition, management is actively seeking a collaborative relationship with either a pharmaceutical or biotechnology company. If successful, cash requirements may be met through royalty or licensing fees. As of the date hereof, the
22
Company has not entered into an agreement with any pharmaceutical or biotechnological company.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 and 2001
For the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company realized a net loss from operations of $146,213 compared to a net loss from operations of $252,509 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The Companys decrease in net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, was principally attributable to the net effect of several factors. Salaries decreased from the three months ended March 31, 2001, in the amount of $72,609 as the result of decreased personnel, professional fees decreased by $6,244, rent decreased by $9,036 as the result of the closure of an office and termination of a lease in San Diego, California, travel and entertainment decreased by $8,517, telephone and communications decreased by $6,316 and office expenses decreased by $7,336. Research and development increased by $3,133 and general and administrative expenses increased by $703. Capitalized costs associated with patents and patents pending, net of amortization, also increased over the three months ending March 31, 2001, by $27,583.
RESTATEMENT OF COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Companys financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 1999, respectively, have been restated to reflect the correction of an error in common stock outstanding and weighted average number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 2001. Subsequent to December 31, 2002, it was discovered that the Company mistakenly cancelled 850,000 shares of common stock in 1999. Under the terms of a settlement agreement and mutual general release and an escrow agreement each dated July 31, 1991 (collectively referred to as settlement agreements) among the Company, Dr. Simon Skurkovich, a third-party consultant and certain other parties, the Company issued 850,000 shares in the name of the consultant and placed those shares into escrow. These shares were to be released to the consultant upon performance of certain services that were to be provided by the consultant no later than January 15, 1993. The settlement agreements also stated that the 850,000 shares of common stock would be distributed to Dr. Simon Skurkovich, if such services were not provided by the consultant. Such services were not provided by the consultant, in whole or in part, and all 850,000 shares were cancelled by the Company in 1999. Instead of being cancelled, however, the shares should have been distributed to Dr. Simon Skurkovich in 1999 pursuant to the settlement agreements. Therefore, the shares are being reissued to Dr. Simon Skurkovich and are reflected in the accompanying financial statements as if they were never cancelled.
