(A development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Organization

     Aastrom Biosciences, Inc. (Aastrom) was incorporated in March 1989 (Inception), began employee-based operations in 1991, and is in late-stage development. The Company operates its business in one reportable segment – research and product development, conducted both on its own behalf and in connection with various collaborative research and development agreements with others, involving the development and sale of processes and products for the ex vivo production of human cells for use in cell therapy.

     Successful future operations are subject to several technical and business risks, including satisfactory product development, obtaining regulatory approval and market acceptance for developed products and the Company’s ability to obtain future funding.

     The Company is subject to certain risks related to the operation of its business and development of its products and product candidates. While available cash and investments are expected to finance currently planned activities at least through the end of fiscal year 2004, the Company will need to raise additional funds in order to complete its product development programs and commercialize its first product candidates. The Company cannot be certain that such funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. Some of the factors that will impact the Company’s ability to raise additional capital include, but are not limited to, the rate and degree of progress demonstrated in its product development programs, the liquidity and volatility of its equity securities, regulatory and manufacturing requirements and uncertainties, technological developments by competitors, and the general availability of capital in the private and public debt and equity market. If the Company cannot raise additional funds, it may not be able to develop or enhance products, take advantage of future opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, which would negatively impact its business, financial condition and results of operations.

2. Basis of Presentation

     The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by 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 in the United States have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only 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 and six months ended December 31, 2003, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or for any other period.

     These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2003, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Aastrom and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Zellera AG (“Zellera”), which is located in Berlin, Germany (collectively, the “Company”). All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

     Certain previously reported statement of operations amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In March 2003, the Company began segregating cost of product sales relating to the obsolescence of inventory. These costs previously were included in the “Cost of product sales and rentals”. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net loss, shareholders’ equity or cash flows.

3. Stock-Based Employee Compensation

     The Company has a stock incentive plan that is described more fully in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2003. The Company accounts for this plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related Interpretations. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”:
