 Galectin Therapeutics Inc. (the &amp;#x201C;Company&amp;#x201D;) is a
 clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that is applying its
 leadership in galectin science and drug development to create new
 therapies for fibrotic disease and cancer. These drug candidates
 are based on the Company&amp;#x2019;s targeting of galectin proteins
 which are key mediators of biologic and pathologic function. These
 compounds also may have application for drugs to treat other
 diseases and chronic health conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as
 reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect all
 adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to
 present fairly the financial position of the Company as of
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 and the results of its operations for the three
 and six months ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 and 2013 and its cash flows
 for the six months ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 and 2013. All
 adjustments made to the interim financial statements are those of a
 normal and recurring nature. The Company considers events or
 transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the
 financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence
 relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require
 additional disclosure. Subsequent events have been evaluated
 through the date these financial statements are available to be
 issued. The results for interim periods are not necessarily
 indicative of results which may be expected for any other interim
 period or for the full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated
 financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction
 with its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company has operated at a loss since its inception and has had
 no significant revenues. The Company anticipates that losses will
 continue for the foreseeable future. At June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014, the
 Company had $34.4 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents
 available to fund future operations. The Company believes that with
 the cash on hand at June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014, there is sufficient cash to
 fund currently planned operations through mid-2016. The
 Company&amp;#x2019;s ability to fund operations after its current cash
 resources are exhausted depends on its ability to obtain additional
 financing or achieve profitable operations, as to which no
 assurances can be given. Accordingly, based on the forecasts and
 estimates underlying the Company&amp;#x2019;s current operating plan,
 the financial statements do not currently include any adjustments
 that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a
 going concern.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company was founded in July 2000, was incorporated in the State
 of Nevada in January 2001 under the name
 &amp;#x201C;Pro-Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,&amp;#x201D; and changed its name to
 &amp;#x201C;Galectin Therapeutics Inc.&amp;#x201D; on May&amp;#xA0;26,
 2011.&amp;#xA0;On&amp;#xA0;March&amp;#xA0;23, 2012, the Company began trading
 on The NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol GALT. Immediately
 prior to March&amp;#xA0;23, 2012, the Company was traded on the
 Over-the Counter Bulletin Board (&amp;#x201C;OTCBB&amp;#x201D;) under the
 symbol GALT.OB.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of
 other development-stage companies, including dependence on key
 individuals, uncertainty of product development and generation of
 revenues, dependence on outside sources of capital, risks
 associated with clinical trials of products, dependence on
 third-party collaborators for research operations, need for
 regulatory approval of products, risks associated with protection
 of intellectual property, risks associated with litigation, and
 competition with larger, better-capitalized companies. Successful
 completion of the Company&amp;#x2019;s development program and,
 ultimately, the attainment of profitable operations is dependent
 upon future events, including obtaining adequate financing to
 fulfill its development activities and achieving a level of
 revenues adequate to support the Company&amp;#x2019;s cost structure.
 There are no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain
 additional financing on favorable terms, or at all, or successfully
 market its products.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board,
 Accounting Standards Update No.&amp;#xA0;2014-10 &amp;#x201C;Development
 Stage Entities (Topic 915)&amp;#x201D; as of June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014. This
 new standard modifies financial statement presentation to eliminate
 the requirement to include inception-to-date information in the
 statements of operations and cash flows, among other
 provisions.&lt;/p&gt;

 In January 2014, we created Galectin Sciences, LLC (the
 &amp;#x201C;LLC&amp;#x201D; or &amp;#x201C;Investee&amp;#x201D;), a collaborative joint
 venture co-owned by SBH Sciences, Inc. (&amp;#x201C;SBH&amp;#x201D;), to
 research and develop small organic molecule inhibitors of
 galectin-3 for oral administration. The LLC was initially
 capitalized with a $400,000 cash investment to fund future research
 and development activities, which was provided by the Company, and
 specific in-process research and development
 (&amp;#x201C;IPR&amp;amp;D&amp;#x201D;) contributed by SBH.&amp;#xA0;The estimated
 fair value of the IPR&amp;amp;D contributed by SBH, on the date of
 contribution, was $400,000.&amp;#xA0;Both the Company and SBH have a
 50% equity ownership interest in the LLC, with neither party having
 control over the LLC.&amp;#xA0;Accordingly, the Company has accounted
 for its investment in the LLC using the equity method of
 accounting.&amp;#xA0;Under the equity method of accounting, the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s investment was initially recorded at cost with
 subsequent adjustments to the carrying value to recognize
 additional investments in or distributions from the Investee, as
 wells the Company&amp;#x2019;s share of the Investee&amp;#x2019;s earnings,
 losses and/or changes in capital. The estimated fair value of the
 IPR&amp;amp;D contributed to the LLC was immediately expensed upon
 contribution as there was no alternative future use available at
 the point of contribution.&amp;#xA0;The Company&amp;#x2019;s portion of the
 LLC&amp;#x2019;s net loss for the six month period ending&amp;#xA0;June 30,
 2014 was $337,000, which includes the&amp;#xA0;Company&amp;#x2019;s
 proportionate share of the non-cash charge associated with the
 contributed IPR&amp;amp;D of $200,000.&lt;/p&gt;

 The Company has certain financial assets and liabilities recorded
 at fair value. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize
 observable data such as quoted prices in active markets. Fair
 values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points other than
 quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly
 or indirectly. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs utilize
 unobservable data points in which there is little or no market
 data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own
 assumptions. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated
 balance sheets for cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued
 expenses approximates their carrying value due to their short-term
 nature. There were no level 2 or level 3 assets held at fair value
 at June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 or December&amp;#xA0;31, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;

 On October&amp;#xA0;25, 2013, the Company entered into an At Market
 Issuance Sales Agreement (the &amp;#x201C;At Market Agreement&amp;#x201D;)
 with a sales agent under which the Company may issue and sell
 shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up
 to $30.0&amp;#xA0;million from time to time through the sales agent.
 Sales of the Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock through the sales agent,
 if any, will be made by any method that is deemed an &amp;#x201C;at the
 market&amp;#x201D; offering as defined by the U.S. Securities and
 Exchange Commission. The Company will pay to the sales agent a
 commission rate equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale
 of any shares of common stock sold through the sales agent under
 the At Market Agreement. As of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2013, the Company
 had issued 99,942 shares of its common stock through its At Market
 issuance program at an average price of $9.02 per share resulting
 in gross proceeds of approximately $944,000. The Company incurred
 one time, initial legal and accounting costs of approximately
 $82,000 and commissions of $29,000 resulting in net proceeds of
 $833,000 as of December&amp;#xA0;31, 2013. In January and February
 2014, the Company issued 2,663,647 shares of common stock for net
 proceeds of approximately $28,178,000.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p style="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net
 loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average
 number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net
 loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss
 available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of
 common shares and other potential common shares then outstanding.
 Potential common shares consist of common shares issuable upon the
 assumed exercise of in-the-money stock options and warrants and
 potential common shares related to the conversion of the preferred
 stock. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not
 assume the issuance of common shares that have an anti-dilutive
 effect on net loss per share.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"&gt;
 Dilutive shares which could exist pursuant to the exercise of
 outstanding stock instruments and which were not included in the
 calculation because their affect would have been anti-dilutive are
 as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

 As of June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014, there was $5,753,000 of unrecognized
 compensation related to 1,229,141 unvested options, which is
 expected to be recognized over a weighted&amp;#x2013;average period of
 approximately 1.95 years. The weighted-average grant date fair
 value for options granted during the six months ended June&amp;#xA0;30,
 2014 and 2013 was $11.38 and $3.64, respectively. The Company
 granted 326,500 stock options in January 2014, of which 81,625
 options vested upon grant with the remaining 244,875 options
 vesting over 3&amp;#xA0;years. Approximately $921,000 of non-cash,
 stock-based compensation expense was recorded during the six months
 ended June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 related to the options granted during the
 first quarter that were vested upon the grant date.&lt;/p&gt;

 events: (i)&amp;#xA0;the approval by the Food and Drug Administration
 for a new drug application (&amp;#x201C;NDA&amp;#x201D;) for any drug
 candidate or drug delivery candidate based on the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 GM-CT-01 technology (whether or not such technology is patented),
 in which case Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt is also entitled to a fully vested
 10-year cashless-exercise stock option to purchase at least 83,334
 shares of common stock at an exercise price not less than the fair
 market value of the common stock determined as of the date of
 grant; (ii)&amp;#xA0;consummation of a transaction with a
 pharmaceutical company expected to result in at least $10.0 million
 of equity investment or $50 million of royalty revenue to the
 Company, in which case Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt is also entitled to stock
 options on the same terms to purchase at least 50,000 shares of
 common stock; or (iii)&amp;#xA0;the renewed listing of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s securities on a national securities exchange and
 the achievement of a market capitalization of $100 million. Payment
 upon the events (i)&amp;#xA0;and (iii)&amp;#xA0;may be deferred up to six
 months, and if the Company has insufficient cash at the time of any
 of such events, it may issue Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt a secured promissory
 note for such amount. If the Company&amp;#xA0;files a voluntary or
 involuntary petition for bankruptcy, whether or not a milestone
 event has occurred, such event shall trigger the obligation to pay
 the $1.0&amp;#xA0;million with the result that Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt may
 assert a claim for such obligation against the bankruptcy estate.
 During 2011, when it became probable that the Company could be
 relisted on a national securities exchange and eventually reach a
 market capitalization of $100 million, the Company recognized the
 $1.0 million severance payment due to Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt and it is
 included in accrued expenses at June&amp;#xA0;30, 2014 and
 December&amp;#xA0;31, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On May&amp;#xA0;2, 2012, Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt instituted an arbitration with
 the American Arbitration Association seeking the $1 million payment
 based on a claim that the milestone event in the Separation
 Agreement described in clause (iii)&amp;#xA0;above had occurred.
 Although the Company had listed its common stock on the Nasdaq
 Capital Markets as of March&amp;#xA0;22, 2012, the market
 capitalization since the listing had not reached $100 million when
 the arbitration was heard in October 2012. On November&amp;#xA0;1,
 2012, the arbitrator denied Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt&amp;#x2019;s demand in all
 respects.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On October&amp;#xA0;12, 2012, Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt commenced a lawsuit under
 the Massachusetts Wage Act against Dr.&amp;#xA0;Traber and
 Mr.&amp;#xA0;McGauley who in their capacities as the Company&amp;#x2019;s
 Chief Executive Officer and the Company&amp;#x2019;s former Chief
 Financial Officer, respectively, can be held individually liable
 under the Wage Act for non-payment of wages. The lawsuit is based
 on the facts and issues raised in the arbitration regarding the
 payment of the $1.0 million separation payment under the Separation
 Agreement, and other unspecified &amp;#x201C;wages&amp;#x201D;. The statute
 provides that a successful claimant may be entitled to multiple
 damages, interest and attorney&amp;#x2019;s fees. On April&amp;#xA0;29,
 2013, the Superior Court allowed Dr.&amp;#xA0;Traber&amp;#x2019;s and
 Mr.&amp;#xA0;McGauley&amp;#x2019;s motion to dismiss. On May&amp;#xA0;28, 2013,
 Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt filed a Notice of Appeal to appeal the Superior
 Court&amp;#x2019;s order allowing the defendants&amp;#x2019; motion to
 dismiss. On April&amp;#xA0;14, 2014, the Appeals Court denied
 Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt&amp;#x2019;s appeal of the dismissal in full.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On March&amp;#xA0;29, 2013, the Company instituted arbitration before
 the American Arbitration Association, seeking to rescind or reform
 the Separation Agreement discussed above. The Company claimed that
 Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt fraudulently induced the Company to enter into the
 Separation Agreement, breached his fiduciary duty to the Company,
 and was unduly enriched from his conduct. Along with removal of the
 $1.0 million milestone payment under the Separation Agreement, the
 Company sought repayment of all separation benefits paid to
 Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt to date.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 12pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On August&amp;#xA0;1, 2013, the market capitalization of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s common stock exceeded $100 million and the Company
 received a letter dated October&amp;#xA0;1, 2013, demanding payment of
 the $1 million. As described in the preceding paragraph, the
 Company had previously instituted an arbitration proceeding against
 Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt seeking to rescind the Separation Agreement,
 including the milestone payment provision, and the Company delayed
 payment pending the outcome of this arbitration. In June 2014, the
 arbitrator issued a judgment in favor of Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt. In July
 2014, the Company paid the $1 million severance obligation.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Securities lawsuit&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On July 30, 2014, the Company became aware that a class action
 lawsuit has been filed against Galectin Therapeutics and certain
 officers of the Company alleging violations of United States
 federal securities laws. The Company disputes the allegations in
 the complaint and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Other Legal Proceedings&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 The Company records accruals for such contingencies to the extent
 that the Company concludes that their occurrence is probable and
 the related damages are estimable, except as noted above. There are
 no other pending legal proceedings except as noted above.&lt;/p&gt;

 In January 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with a
 consultant that provided for the grant of warrants for the purchase
 of 5,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.65 per
 share. The following assumptions were used to value the warrants:
 an expected life of 3 years, volatility of 87%, risk free interest
 rate of 0.42% and zero dividends. The Company recognized an expense
 of $7,000 related to these warrants during the three months ended
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2013.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 18pt"&gt;
 &lt;i&gt;Warrants Modification&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0pt; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman; MARGIN-TOP: 6pt; TEXT-INDENT: 4%"&gt;
 On May&amp;#xA0;6, 2013, the Company modified the terms of the
 Class&amp;#xA0;A-2 and Class B warrants that were originally issued to
 the 10X Fund with the Series B Preferred Stock offering. The Class
 B warrants were modified to allow for the cashless exercise of all
 4,000,000 outstanding Class B warrants. Previously, only half of
 the Class B warrants allowed for cashless exercise. The
 Class&amp;#xA0;A-2 warrants for the purchase of 1,000,000 shares of
 common and all of the Class B warrants had their exercisable life
 extended by an additional five years. In exchange for these
 modifications, the 10X Fund agreed to a future amendment of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s Series B certificate of designation to remove the
 redemption provision such that the Series B Preferred Stock will no
 longer be redeemable, if and when the Company will no longer be
 required to issue Dr.&amp;#xA0;Platt a promissory note as may currently
 be required under the separation agreement (see Note
 8).&amp;#xA0;Should the Company amend their Series B certificate of
 designation in the future as described above, the Company will be
 required at that time to evaluate whether such amendment is to be
 accounted for as a modification or an extinguishment of the
 Company&amp;#x2019;s Series B Preferred Stock.&amp;#xA0;The Company has
 accounted for the modified terms of the Class&amp;#xA0;A-2 and Class B
 warrants pursuant to ASC 718, Stock Compensation, whereby the
 Company has recognized a charge for the change in fair value of the
 warrants immediately before and immediately after the
 modification.&amp;#xA0;For the three and six month period ended
 June&amp;#xA0;30, 2013, the Company recognized a charge of $8,763,000
 related to the extension of the 5,000,000 warrants. The following
 assumptions were used to value the extension of the warrants
 immediately before and immediately after the modification: a)
 immediately before the modification&amp;#x2014;an expected life range of
 0.77 to 2.01 years, volatility range of 77% to 96%, risk free
 interest rate range of 0.11% to 0.22% and zero dividends and; b)
 immediately following the modification&amp;#x2014;an expected life range
 of 5.78 to 7.02 years, volatility range of 113% to 122%, risk free
 interest rate range of 0.74% to 1.19% and zero dividends.&lt;/p&gt;
