NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OMNICARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
UNAUDITED

Note 1 - Interim Financial Data, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Interim Financial Data

The interim financial data is unaudited; however, in the opinion of the management of Omnicare, Inc., the interim data includes all adjustments (which include only normal adjustments, except as described in the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” and “Commitments and Contingencies” notes) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows of Omnicare, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Omnicare” or the “Company”). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Omnicare’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (“Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report”) and any related updates included in the Company’s periodic quarterly Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings. Certain reclassifications of prior year amounts have been made to conform with the current year presentation.

Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s description of business and significant accounting policies have been disclosed in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report. As previously disclosed, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report and any related updates contained in the Company’s periodic quarterly SEC filings, including those presented below.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The prescription drug benefit under Medicare Part D (“Part D”) became effective on January 1, 2006. As a result, providers of long-term care pharmacy services, including Omnicare, experienced a significant shift in payor mix beginning in 2006. Approximately 42% of the Company’s revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2007 were generated under the Part D program. The Company estimates that approximately 35% of these Part D revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2007 relate to patients enrolled in Part D prescription drug plans sponsored by UnitedHealth Group and its Affiliates (“United”). Prior to the implementation of the Medicare Part D program, most of the Part D residents served by the Company were reimbursed under state Medicaid programs and, to a lesser extent, private pay sources.

Under the Part D benefit, payment is determined in accordance with the agreements Omnicare has negotiated with the Part D Plans. The remainder of Omnicare’s billings are paid or reimbursed primarily by individual residents, long-term care facilities (including revenues for residents funded under Medicare Part A) and other third party payors, including private insurers.

6

The Medicaid and Medicare programs are highly regulated. The failure, even if inadvertent, of Omnicare and/or client facilities to comply with applicable reimbursement regulations could adversely affect Omnicare’s reimbursement under these programs and Omnicare’s ability to continue to participate in these programs. In addition, failure to comply with these regulations could subject the Company to other penalties.

As noted, the Company obtains reimbursement for drugs it provides to enrollees of a given Part D Plan in accordance with the terms of the agreement negotiated between it and that Part D Plan. The Company has entered into such agreements with nearly all Part D Plan sponsors under which it will provide drugs and associated services to their enrollees. The Company continues to have ongoing discussions with Part D Plans in the ordinary course and may, as appropriate, renegotiate agreements. Further, the proportion of the Company’s Part D business serviced under specific agreements may change over time. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the reimbursement terms which currently apply to the Company’s Part D business will not change. Moreover, as expected in the transition to a new program of this magnitude, certain administrative and payment issues have arisen, resulting in higher operating expenses, as well as outstanding gross accounts receivable (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowances for doubtful accounts) for copays and rejected claims. As of June 30, 2007, copays outstanding from Part D Plans were approximately $29 million, of which approximately $20 million relates to 2006. Additionally, as of June 30, 2007, Part D rejected claims outstanding from Part D Plans for the 2006 transitional year were approximately $21 million. Until all administrative and payment issues are fully resolved, there can be no assurance that the impact of the Part D Drug Benefit on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows will not change based on the outcome of any unforeseen future developments.

On July 16, 2007, the Company commenced legal action against a group of its customers for, among other things, the collection of past-due receivables that are owed to the Company. Specifically, approximately $85 million is owed to the Company by this group of customers as of June 30, 2007, of which approximately $72 million is past due based on applicable payment terms.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

The accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) balances at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, net of aggregate applicable tax benefits of $36.0 million and $34.9 million, respectively, by component and in the aggregate, follow

Cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments	$	2,208		$	1,705
Unrealized depreciation in fair value of investments		(2,514	)		(1,423	)

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the FASB having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with earlier adoption permitted. The provisions of SFAS 157 should be applied prospectively, as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which it is initially applied, with limited exceptions. The Company currently does not believe SFAS 157 will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows, but is continuing its evaluation of the new standard.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS 159 does not affect any existing accounting literature that requires certain assets and liabilities to be carried at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company currently does not believe SFAS 159 will have a material impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows, but is continuing its evaluation of the new standard.

Note 2 - Acquisitions

Since 1989, the Company has been involved in a program to acquire providers of pharmaceutical products and related pharmacy management services and medical supplies to long-term care facilities and their residents. The Company’s strategy has included the acquisition of freestanding institutional pharmacy businesses, as well as other assets, generally insignificant in size, which have been combined with existing pharmacy operations to augment their internal growth. From time-to-time the Company may acquire other businesses, such as long-term care software companies, contract research organizations, pharmacy consulting companies, specialty pharmacy companies, medical supply companies, hospice pharmacy companies and companies providing distribution and patient assistance services for specialty pharmaceuticals, which complement the Company’s core business. During the first six months of 2007, Omnicare completed 12 acquisitions of businesses and other assets in the Pharmacy Services segment, none of which were, individually or in the aggregate, significant to the Company. Acquisitions of businesses required cash payments of $69.3 million (including amounts payable pursuant to acquisition agreements relating to pre-2007 acquisitions) in the six months ended June 30, 2007. The impact of these aggregate acquisitions on the Company’s overall goodwill balance has been reflected in the disclosures at the “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” note. Omnicare engages independent valuation firms to assist with identification and valuation of other identifiable intangible assets in connection with the purchase price allocation of certain

8

acquisitions. The Company also continues to evaluate the tax effects and other pre-acquisition contingencies relating to certain acquisitions. Omnicare is in the process of completing its allocation of the purchase price for certain acquisitions and, accordingly, the goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets balances are preliminary and subject to change. The net assets and operating results of acquisitions have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.

Note 3 - Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2007, by business segment, are as follows
(in thousands):

	Pharmacy Services		CRO Services		Total
Balance as of December 31, 2006	$	4,134,235	$	90,776	$	4,225,011
Goodwill acquired in the six months ended June 30, 2007		31,841		—		31,841
Other		17,876		35		17,911
Balance as of June 30, 2007	$	4,183,952	$	90,811	$	4,274,763

The “Other” captions above include the settlement of acquisition matters relating to prior-year acquisitions, (including, where applicable, payments pursuant to acquisition agreements such as deferred payments, indemnification payments and payments originating from earnout provisions, as well as adjustments for the finalization of purchase price allocations, including identifiable intangible asset valuations). “Other” also includes the effect of adjustments due to foreign currency translations, which relate solely to the Contract Research Organization (“CRO”) Services segment and one pharmacy located in Canada that is included in the Pharmacy Services segment.

The decrease in the net carrying amount of the Company’s other identifiable intangible assets of approximately $4.9 million from December 31, 2006, primarily relates to amortization expense recorded during the period, partially offset by increases due primarily to customer relationship assets and non-compete agreements, with a weighted average life of approximately 11 years, recorded as part of the purchase price allocation for certain acquisitions.

The Company’s debt instruments, including related terms and financial covenants, have been disclosed in further detail at the “Debt” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report.

At June 30, 2007, there was no outstanding balance under the Company’s $800 million revolving credit facility (“Revolving Loans”), maturing on July 28, 2010, and $500 million outstanding under the Company’s senior term A loan facility, maturing on July 28, 2010 (the “Term Loans”). The Company repaid $100 million on the Term Loans during the six months ended June 30, 2007. The interest rate on the Term Loans was 6.57% at June 30, 2007. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had approximately $22.6 million outstanding relating to standby letters of credit, substantially all of which are subject to automatic annual renewals. The Company amortized to expense $2.0 million of deferred debt issuance costs during the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. During the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company amortized to expense $4.1 million of deferred debt issuance costs.

At June 30, 2007, the overall weighted average interest rate on the Company’s variable interest portion of its long-term debt, excluding the interest rate swap agreement, was 6.56%. The estimated floating interest rate on the interest rate swap agreement was 7.66% at June 30, 2007.

Note 5 - Public Offering of Common Stock

During January 2006, the underwriters of the common stock offering completed by the Company in December 2005 exercised their option, in part, to purchase an additional 850,000 shares of common stock, $1 par value, at $59.72 per share. Gross cash proceeds, before underwriting discount, commission and expenses, were approximately $51 million.

10

Note 6 - Stock-Based Employee Compensation

At June 30, 2007, the Company had four stock-based employee compensation plans under which incentive awards were outstanding, which are described in further detail at the “Stock-Based Employee Compensation” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report. Omnicare believes that the incentive awards issued under these plans serve to better align the interests of its employees with those of its stockholders. As further described in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report, non-vested stock awards are granted to key employees at the discretion of the Compensation and Incentive Committee of the Board of Directors.

Total pretax stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as part of S,G&A expense for stock options and stock awards for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 is as follows (in thousands):

	Three months ended, June 30,				Six months ended, June 30,

As of June 30, 2007, there was approximately $82 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock awards and stock options granted to Omnicare employees, which is expected to be recognized as expense prospectively over a remaining weighted-average period of approximately 4.7 years. The total grant date fair value of shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2007 related to stock awards and stock options was approximately $29.2 million.

Note 7 - Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has various defined contribution savings plans under which eligible employees can participate by contributing a portion of their salary for investment, at the direction of each employee, in one or more investment funds, as further described in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report. Expense relating primarily to the Company’s matching contributions for these defined contribution plans was $1.6 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30,

12

2007, respectively, and $1.6 million and $3.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.

The Company has a non-contributory, defined benefit pension plan covering certain corporate headquarters employees and the employees of several companies sold by the Company in 1992, for which benefits ceased accruing upon the sale (the “Qualified Plan”). Benefits accruing under this plan to corporate headquarters employees were fully vested and frozen as of January 1, 1994.

The Company also has an excess benefit plan (“EBP”) that provides retirement payments to certain headquarters employees in amounts generally consistent with what they would have received under the Qualified Plan. The retirement benefits provided by the EBP are generally comparable to those that would have been earned in the Qualified Plan, if payments under the Qualified Plan were not limited by the Internal Revenue Code.

In addition, the Company has a supplemental pension plan (“SPP”) in which certain of its officers participate. Retirement benefits under the SPP are calculated on the basis of a specified percentage of the officers’ covered compensation, years of credited service and a vesting schedule, as specified in the plan document.

The Qualified Plan is funded with an irrevocable trust, which consists of assets held in the Vanguard Intermediate Term Treasury Fund Admiral Shares fund (“Vanguard Fund”), a mutual fund holding U.S. Treasury obligations. In addition, the Company has established rabbi trusts, which are also held in the Vanguard Fund and the AIM Limited Maturity Treasury Fund, to provide for retirement obligations under the EBP and SPP. The Company’s policy is to fund its pension obligations in accordance with the funding provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act.

The following table presents the components of pension cost for all pension plans for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (pretax, in thousands):

	Three months ended June 30,						Six months ended June 30,
	2007			2006			2007			2006
Service cost	$	1,087		$	561		$	2,174		$	1,122
Interest cost		2,051			1,043			4,102			2,086
Amortization of deferred amounts (primarily prior actuarial losses)		2,901			1,091			5,802			2,182
Return on assets		(47	)		(44	)		(94	)		(88	)
Net periodic pension cost	$	5,992		$	2,651		$	11,984		$	5,302

As of June 30, 2007, the aggregate defined benefit plans’ liabilities total approximately $151 million. During the first six months of 2007, the Company made payments of $17.0 million related to funding the rabbi trusts for the settlement of the Company’s pension obligations, resulting in aggregate assets with a fair value of approximately $101 million at June 30, 2007.

13

The Company currently anticipates making contributions of approximately $13 million during the remainder of the 2007 year.

Note 8 - Income Taxes

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004, and state and local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2002.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”) on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized an increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $17.9 million, $5.8 million of which was accounted for as a reduction to the January 1, 2007 retained earnings balance and $12.1 million of which was accounted for as an increase to goodwill.

As of January 1, 2007, the Company had a $60.3 million liability recorded for unrecognized tax benefits principally for U.S. federal and state tax jurisdictions. The majority of unrecognized tax benefits relate to acquisitions. The total liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits are carried in other noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, as payment of cash is not anticipated within one year of the balance sheet date for any significant amounts. In addition, the Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expenses and had approximately $6.8 million accrued, for the payment of interest and penalties, at January 1, 2007. The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits at January 1, 2007 that, if recognized, would favorably impact the effective tax rate was $15.2 million, which includes interest and penalties of approximately $4 million. The Company does not currently anticipate that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease by December 31, 2007.

Note 9 - Earnings Per Share Data

Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share include the dilutive effect of stock options, warrants and restricted stock awards, as well as convertible debentures.

14

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) computations (in thousands, except per share data):

	Three months ended June 30,
2007:	Income (Numerator)		Common Shares (Denominator)		Per Common Share Amounts

Stock options, warrants and awards		—		2,872
Diluted EPS
Net income plus assumed conversions	$	61,754		123,303	$	0.50

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the anti-dilutive effect associated with certain stock options, warrants and stock awards was excluded from the computation of diluted EPS, since the exercise price was greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during these periods. The aggregate number of stock options, warrants and stock awards excluded from the computation of diluted EPS for the quarters ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 totaled 3.7 million and 1.6 million, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, totaled 3.7 million and 1.6 million, respectively.

Note 10 - Restructuring and Other Related Charges

Omnicare Full Potential Plan

In the second quarter of 2006, the Company commenced the implementation of the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, a major initiative designed to re-engineer the Company’s pharmacy operating model to increase efficiency and enhance customer growth. The Omnicare Full Potential Plan is expected to optimize resources across the entire organization by implementing best practices and a “hub-and-spoke” model, whereby certain key support and production functions will be transferred to regional “hubs” specifically designed and managed to perform

16

these tasks, with local “spoke” pharmacies focusing on time-sensitive services and customer-facing processes.

This program is expected to be completed over a 30-month period and is estimated to result in total pretax restructuring and other related charges of approximately $80 million. The charges primarily include severance pay, employment agreement buy-outs, excess lease costs, professional fees and other related costs. The Company recorded restructuring and other related charges for the Omnicare Full Potential Plan of approximately $8 million and $17 million pretax during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively, and approximately $17 million pretax during the year ended December 31, 2006, (approximately $8 million pretax in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006). The remainder of the overall restructuring and other related charges will be recognized and disclosed over the remainder of 2007 and 2008 as various phases of the project are finalized and implemented. The Company estimates that the initial phase of the program will lead to a reduction in force of approximately 1,200 positions, associated primarily with pharmacy operations. Approximately 860 of these positions have been eliminated as of June 30, 2007.

The restructuring charges primarily include severance pay, the buy-out of employment agreements, lease terminations, and other assets, fees and facility exit costs. The other related charges are primarily comprised of professional fees. Details of the Omnicare Full Potential Plan restructuring and other related charges follow (pretax, in thousands):

Restructuring charges:	Balance atDecember 31,2006		2007Provision/Accrual		Utilizedduring2007			Balance atJune 30,2007
Employee severance	$	2,690	$	940	$	(2,438	)	$	1,192
Employment agreement buy-outs		—		2,250		(215	)		2,035

Other related charges				5,288
Total restructuring and other related charges			$	17,003

As of June 30, 2007, the Company has made cumulative payments of approximately $6.4 million of severance and other employee-related costs for the Omnicare Full Potential Plan. The remaining liabilities at June 30, 2007, represent amounts not yet paid relating to actions taken in connection with the program (primarily severance and employment agreement buy-out related payments, lease payments and professional fees) and will be settled as these matters are finalized. The provision/accrual and corresponding payment amounts relating to employee severance are being accounted for primarily in accordance with SFAS No. 112 “Employers’ Accounting for Postemployment Benefits;” and the provision/accrual and corresponding payment amounts relating to employment agreement buy-outs are being accounted for primarily in accordance with SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”).

17

2005 Program

The Company previously disclosed consolidation plans and other productivity initiatives to streamline pharmacy services (related, in part, to the NeighborCare, Inc. acquisition) and contract research organization operations, including maximizing workforce and operating asset utilization, and producing a more cost-efficient, operating infrastructure (the “2005 Program”). The Company recorded restructuring and other related charges of approximately $3 million and $11 million pretax in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively. The 2005 Program initiatives required cumulative restructuring and other related charges of approximately $31 million before taxes through the third quarter of 2006. The restructuring liabilities associated with the 2005 Program were evaluated by the Company during the quarter ended June 30, 2007. During this review, it was determined that certain liabilities are no longer expected to be utilized as part of the activities remaining under the 2005 Program. In accordance with SFAS 146, the Company recorded adjustments to reduce the employee severance and employee agreement buy-out liabilities by approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million pretax, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

The restructuring charges primarily included severance pay, the buy-out of employment agreements, lease terminations and other assets, fees and facility exit costs. Details of the remaining 2005 Program restructuring charge liabilities follow (pretax, in thousands):

Restructuring liabilities:	Balance atDecember 31,2006		Adjustmentsduring2007			Utilizedduring2007			Balance atJune 30,2007

Total restructuring liabilities	$	10,310	$	(1,579	)	$	(2,117	)	$	6,614

As of June 30, 2007, the Company has made cumulative payments of approximately $7.6 million of severance and other employee-related costs. The remaining liabilities at June 30, 2007, represent amounts not yet paid relating to actions taken in connection with the program (primarily lease payments) and will be settled as these matters are finalized.

Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies

Omnicare continuously evaluates contingencies based upon the best available information. The Company believes that liabilities have been provided to the extent necessary in cases where the outcome is considered probable and reasonably estimable. To the extent that resolution of contingencies results in amounts that vary from the Company’s recorded liabilities, future earnings will be charged or credited accordingly.

18

The Company has received administrative subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts, seeking information arising out of the Company’s relationships with certain manufacturers and distributors of pharmaceutical products and certain customers, as well as with respect to contracts with certain companies acquired by the Company. The Company believes that it has complied with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to these matters.

The federal government and certain states had been investigating allegations relating to three generic pharmaceuticals provided by the Company in connection with the substitution of capsules for tablets (Ranitidine), tablets for capsules (Fluoxetine) and two 7.5 mg tablets for one 15 mg tablet (Buspirone). On November 14, 2006, the Company entered into a civil settlement agreement, under which the Company paid the federal government and participating state governments $51 million to satisfy all of the federal and state civil claims and related plaintiff legal fees. The Company recorded a special litigation charge, for the settlement and related legal fees, of $57.5 million pretax, ($45.3 million aftertax) in its financial results for 2006, including $19.3 million and $53.4 million pretax in the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively, to establish a reserve relating to the aforementioned investigation. The settlement agreement also resulted in the dismissal, with prejudice, of a number of other allegations included in complaints filed by two qui tam relators. Another issue alleged by one of the qui tam relators remains under seal and was not resolved by the settlement. As part of the settlement agreement, on November 9, 2006, the Company entered into a Corporate Integrity Agreement with the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General with a term of five years from November 9, 2006. The Corporate Integrity Agreement requires that the Company maintain its compliance program in accordance with the terms of the Corporate Integrity Agreement. The agreement contains specific requirements regarding the development and implementation of therapeutic interchange programs and the general training of certain Company employees as to the requirements of the Company’s compliance program and the Corporate Integrity Agreement. The requirements of the Corporate Integrity Agreement have resulted in increased costs to maintain the Company’s compliance program and could result in greater scrutiny by federal regulatory authorities. Violations of the Corporate Integrity Agreement could subject the Company to significant monetary and/or administrative penalties.

On July 11, 2006, the Attorney General’s Office in Michigan provided the Company’s legal counsel with information concerning its investigation relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program at Specialized Pharmacy Services, a subsidiary of the Company located in Michigan. On October 5, 2006, the Company entered into a voluntary settlement agreement and a two-year Corporate Integrity Agreement with the State of Michigan to resolve the Michigan Attorney General’s investigation relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program at Specialized Pharmacy Services. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company paid the State of Michigan approximately $43 million, with an additional amount of approximately $6 million to be paid over the following three years. The settlement agreement does not include any finding of wrongdoing or any admission of liability. With respect to claims that Specialized Pharmacy Services was not billing properly for drugs provided to hospice patients, which were not covered by the settlement agreement, the Company has reached an agreement in principle to settle the matter with the State of Michigan. Although the final details of the agreement with respect to the hospice claims have not yet been resolved, it

19

is anticipated that the Company will pay approximately $3.5 million to settle the matter. The Company recorded a special litigation charge of $54.0 million pretax ($46.7 million aftertax) in its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 based on the terms of the settlement agreement. The Corporate Integrity Agreement with the State of Michigan requires that the Company and Specialized Pharmacy Services maintain Specialized Pharmacy Services’ compliance program in accordance with the terms of the Corporate Integrity Agreement. The agreement contains specific requirements regarding compliance with Medicaid policies governing access to pharmacy facilities and records, unit dose billing agreements, consumption billing, hospice patient terminal illness prescriptions and prescriptions dispensed after a patient’s death. The requirements of the Corporate Integrity Agreement could result in increased costs to maintain Specialized Pharmacy Services’ compliance program and greater scrutiny by Michigan regulatory authorities. Violations of the Corporate Integrity Agreement could subject the Company to significant monetary and/or administrative penalties.

On February 2 and February 13, 2006, respectively, two substantially similar putative class action lawsuits, entitled Indiana State Dist. Council of Laborers & HOD Carriers Pension & Welfare Fund v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., No. 2:06cv26 (“HOD Carriers”), and Chi v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., No. 2:06cv31 (“Chi”), were filed against Omnicare and two of its officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky purporting to assert claims for violation of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeking, among other things, compensatory damages and injunctive relief. The complaints, which purported to be brought on behalf of all open-market purchasers of Omnicare common stock from August 3, 2005 through January 27, 2006, alleged that Omnicare had artificially inflated its earnings by engaging in improper generic drug substitution and that defendants had made false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business and prospects. On April 3, 2006, plaintiffs in the HOD Carriers case formally moved for consolidation and the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. On May 22, 2006, that motion was granted, the cases were consolidated, and a lead plaintiff and lead counsel were appointed. On July 20, 2006, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, adding a third officer as a defendant and new factual allegations primarily relating to revenue recognition, the valuation of receivables and the valuation of inventories. On October 31, 2006, plaintiffs moved for leave to file a second amended complaint, which was granted on January 26, 2007, on the condition that no further amendments would be permitted absent extraordinary circumstances. Plaintiffs thereafter filed their second amended complaint on January 29, 2007. The second amended complaint (i) expands the putative class to include all purchasers of Omnicare common stock from August 3, 2005 through July 27, 2006, (ii) names two members of the Company’s board of directors as additional defendants, (iii) adds a new plaintiff and a new claim for violation of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 based on alleged false and misleading statements in the registration statement filed in connection with the Company’s December 2005 public offering, (iv) alleges that the Company failed to timely disclose its contractual dispute with UnitedHealth, and (v) alleges that the Company failed to timely record certain special litigation reserves. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on March 12, 2007, claiming that plaintiffs had failed adequately to plead loss causation, scienter or any actionable misstatement or omission. That motion was fully briefed as of May 1, 2007. In response to certain arguments relating to the individual claims of the named plaintiffs that were raised in defendants’ pending motion to dismiss, plaintiffs filed a motion to add, or in the alternative, to intervene an additional named plaintiff, Alaska Electrical Pension Fund, on July 27, 2007. Oral argument was held on defendants’ motion to dismiss on August 2, 2007 and the court reserved decision.

20

On February 13, 2006, two substantially similar shareholder derivative actions, entitled Isak v. Gemunder, et al., Case No. 06-CI-390, and Fragnoli v. Hutton, et al., Case No. 06-CI-389, were filed in Kentucky State Circuit Court, Kenton Circuit, against the members of Omnicare’s board of directors, individually, purporting to assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment arising out of the Company’s alleged violations of federal and state health care laws based upon the same purportedly improper generic drug substitution that is the subject of the federal purported class action lawsuits. The complaints seek, among other things, damages, restitution and injunctive relief. The Isak and Fragnoli actions were later consolidated by agreement of the parties. On January 12, 2007, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated action on the grounds that the dismissal of the substantially identical shareholder derivative action, Irwin v. Gemunder, et al., 2:06cv62, by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky on November 20, 2006 should be given preclusive effect and thus bars re-litigation of the issues already decided in Irwin. Instead of opposing that motion, on March 16, 2007, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint, which continues to name all of the directors as defendants and asserts the same claims, but attempts to bolster those claims by adding nearly all of the substantive allegations from the most recent complaint in the federal securities class action (see discussion of HOD Carriers above) and an amended complaint in Irwin that added the same factual allegations that were added to the consolidated amended complaint in the HOD Carriers action. On April 16, 2007, defendants filed a supplemental memorandum of law in further support of their pending motion to dismiss contending that the amended complaint should be dismissed on the same grounds previously articulated for dismissal, namely, the preclusive effect of the dismissal of the Irwin action. That motion has been fully briefed and oral argument has been scheduled for August 21, 2007.

The Company believes the above-described purported class and derivative actions are without merit and will be vigorously defended.

The three and six months ended June 30, 2007 included a $9.0 million pretax charge ($5.5 million after taxes) and a $15.9 million pretax charge ($9.8 million after taxes), respectively, reflected in the “Litigation charges” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income, for litigation-related professional expenses in connection with the administrative subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts, the purported class and derivative actions, the Company’s lawsuit against United, the inquiry conducted by the Attorney General’s Office in Michigan relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program, the investigation by the federal government and certain states relating to drug substitutions and the Company’s response to subpoenas it received relating to other legal proceedings to which the Company is not a party.

During 2006, the Company experienced certain quality control and product recall issues, as well as fire damage, at one of its repackaging facilities, Heartland Repack Services (“Heartland”). As a precautionary measure, the Company voluntarily and temporarily suspended operations at Heartland. During the time that the Heartland facility was closed, the Company conducted certain environmental tests at the facility. Based on the results of these tests, which showed very low levels of beta lactam residue, and the time and expense associated with completing the necessary remediation procedures, as well as the short remaining term on the lease for the current

21

facility, the Company decided not to reopen the Heartland facility. The Company continues to work to address and resolve all issues, and restore centralized repackaging to full capacity. In order to temporarily replace the capacity of the Heartland facility, the Company ramped up production in its other repackaging facility, as well as onsite in its individual pharmacies for use by their patients. As a result, the Company has been and continues to be able to meet the needs of all of its client facilities and their residents. Addressing these issues served to increase costs and as a result, the three months ended June 30, 2007 included special charges of approximately $4.9 million pretax ($4.0 million and $0.9 million was recorded in the cost of sales and operating expenses sections of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively) ($3.0 million after taxes) for costs associated with the quality control, product recall and fire damage issues at Heartland. The associated costs for the six months ended June 30, 2007 totaled approximately $10.7 million pretax ($8.3 million and $2.4 million was recorded in the cost of sales and operating expenses sections of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively) ($6.6 million after taxes). Beginning in the third quarter, the year ended 2006 included special charges of approximately $33.7 million pretax ($27.7 million and $6.1 million was recorded in the cost of sales and operating expense sections of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively) ($21.2 million after taxes) for these increased costs, particularly relating to the write-off of inventory totaling $18.9 million pretax, as well as $14.8 million pretax for the incremental costs associated with the quality control, product recall and fire damage issues at Heartland. The Company maintains product recall, property and casualty and business interruption insurance, and the extent of insurance recovery for these expenses is currently being reviewed by its outside advisors. As of June 30, 2007, no receivables for insurance recoveries have been recorded by the Company. Further, in order to replace the repackaging capacity of the Heartland facility, on February 27, 2007, Omnicare entered into an agreement for the Repackaging Services division of Cardinal Health to serve as the contract repackager for pharmaceutical volumes previously repackaged at the Heartland facility. The agreement initially extends through October 2010.

Although the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, there can be no assurance that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows or, in the case of the investigations regarding certain drug substitutions and certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program and the matters relating to the Heartland facility, that these matters will be resolved in an amount that would not exceed the amount of the pretax charges recorded by the Company.

As part of its ongoing operations, the Company is subject to various inspections, audits, inquiries and similar actions by third parties, as well as governmental/regulatory authorities responsible for enforcing the laws and regulations to which the Company is subject. The Company is also involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. These matters are continuously being evaluated and, in many cases, are being contested by the Company and the outcome is not predictable. Consequently, an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss associated with certain actions cannot be made. Although occasional adverse outcomes (or settlements) may occur and could possibly have an adverse effect on the results of operations and cash flows in any one accounting period, outside of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, the Company is not aware of any such matters whereby it is presently believed that

22

the final disposition will have a material adverse affect on the Company’s overall consolidated financial position.

The Company indemnifies the directors and officers of the Company for certain liabilities that might arise from the performance of their job responsibilities for the Company. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this involves the resolution of claims made, or future claims that may be made, against the Company, its directors and/or officers, the outcomes of which is unknown and not currently predictable. Accordingly, no liabilities have been recorded for the indemnifications.

Note 12 - Segment Information

Based on the “management approach,” as defined by SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” Omnicare has two operating segments. The Company’s larger segment is Pharmacy Services.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (“MD&A”)

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this report. In addition, see “Safe Harbor Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 Regarding Forward-Looking Information.” The reader should also refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and MD&A, including critical accounting policies, for the year ended December 31, 2006, which appear in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, (“Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report”), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 1, 2007.

Overview of Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 and Results of Operations

Omnicare, Inc. (“Omnicare” or the “Company”) is a leading geriatric pharmaceutical services company. Omnicare is the nation’s largest provider of pharmaceuticals and related pharmacy and ancillary services to long-term healthcare institutions. Omnicare’s clients include primarily skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”), assisted living facilities, retirement centers, independent living communities, hospitals, hospice, and other healthcare settings and service providers.

The following summary table presents consolidated net sales and results of operations of Omnicare for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 (in thousands, except per share amounts). In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) release entitled “Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” the Company has disclosed in this MD&A, with the exception of EBITDA (discussed below), only those measures that are in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”).

(a) “EBITDA” represents earnings before interest (net of investment income), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that certain investors find EBITDA to be a useful tool for measuring a company’s ability to service its debt, which is also the primary purpose for which management uses this financial measure. However, EBITDA does not represent net cash flows from operating activities, as defined by U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered as a substitute for operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. The Company’s calculation of EBITDA may differ from the calculation of EBITDA by others.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Total net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2007 decreased to $1,549.2 million from $1,641.1 million in the comparable prior-year period. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 was $49.2 million versus $8.4 million earned in the comparable 2006 period. Diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 30, 2007 were $0.41 versus $0.07 in the same prior-year period. EBITDA totaled $149.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007 as compared with $114.4 million for the same period of 2006.

The Company continues to be impacted by the unilateral reduction by UnitedHealth Group, Inc. and its Affiliates (“United”) in the reimbursement rates paid by United to Omnicare by switching to its PacifiCare pharmacy network contract for services rendered by Omnicare to beneficiaries of United’s drug benefit plans under the Medicare Part D program. The differential in rates that resulted from United’s action reduced sales and operating profit in the second quarter of 2007 by approximately $32.3 million (approximately $19.9 million aftertax). The unilateral reduction in reimbursement rates began in April 2006; the impact on the second quarter of 2006 was approximately $22 million (approximately $13.8 million aftertax). This matter is currently the subject of litigation initiated by Omnicare and is before the federal court in the Northern District of Illinois. See further discussion at the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

Financial results for the second quarter of 2007 also reflect a change to the equity method of accounting for certain pharmacy joint venture operations in which the Company owns less than a 100% interest, which was effective in the third quarter of 2006. Accordingly, the deconsolidation of these operations excluded net sales of approximately $28 million for the 2007 second quarter but had no impact on earnings.

Net sales for the quarter were unfavorably impacted by the United Part D contract, the deconsolidation of the pharmacy joint-venture operations, a lower number of beds served and the impact of generic drugs, partially offset by the favorable impact of drug price inflation, acquisitions and growth in hospice pharmacy and specialty pharmacy services and CRO Services revenues. See discussion of sales and operating profit results in more detail at the “Pharmacy Services Segment” and “CRO Services Segment” captions below.

The Company’s consolidated gross profit of $395.0 million decreased $5.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, from the same prior-year period amount of $400.3 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total net sales of 25.5% in the three months ended June 30, 2007, was higher than the 24.4% experienced during the comparable 2006 period. Gross profit was favorably impacted in the 2007 period largely as a result of the increased availability and utilization of higher margin generic drugs, drug purchasing improvements and the continued integration of prior-period acquisitions. Offsetting these factors was the gross profit impact of the aforementioned reduction in net sales, including the reduction in reimbursement under the United Part D contract and a lower number of beds served, as well as a special charge in the 2007 second quarter relating to the incremental costs associated with the closure of the Company’s Heartland repackaging facility as further described below.

Omnicare’s consolidated selling, general and administrative (“operating”) expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $257.9 million were higher than the comparable prior-year amount of $239.8 million by $18.1 million. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales amounted to 16.6% in the second quarter of 2007, representing an increase from the 14.6% experienced in the comparable prior-year period. Operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 were unfavorably impacted primarily by an $11.8 million increase in the provision for doubtful accounts and a $3.3 million increase in periodic pension costs. Partially offsetting the increased operating expenses were the favorable impact of the Company’s continued integration of prior-period acquisitions, and productivity enhancements, including the restructuring program

40

relating to the NeighborCare, Inc. (“NeighborCare”) acquisition and the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as further discussed in the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A.

Investment income for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $2.1 million was lower than the $3.0 million earned in the comparable prior-year period, primarily due to lower average invested cash balances versus the prior year.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2007 of $41.7 million is lower than the $43.1 million in the comparable prior-year period, primarily due to lower debt outstanding resulting from payments aggregating $200 million on the Term Loans in the latter half of 2006 and the first half of 2007, partially offset by increased interest rates for variable rate loans.

The effective income tax rate was 39.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the second quarter of 2006 rate of 81.0%. The effective tax rates in 2007 and 2006 are higher than the federal statutory rate largely as a result of the impact of state and local income taxes and various nondeductible expenses (primarily litigation costs in 2006).

Special Items:

The three months ended June 30, 2007 included the following charges/(credits), which primarily impacted the Pharmacy Services segment, that management considers to be special items, and not related to Omnicare’s ordinary course of business:

(i) Operating income included restructuring and other related charges of approximately $6.3 million pretax ($3.8 million aftertax), $7.8 million of which related to the implementation of the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, a major initiative designed to re-engineer the pharmacy operating model to increase efficiency and enhance customer growth, partially offset by a ($1.6) million credit adjustment to the previously disclosed consolidation and productivity initiatives related, in part, to the integration of the NeighborCare acquisition and other related activities. See further discussion at the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A.

(ii) During 2006, the Company experienced certain quality control and product recall issues, as well as fire damage, at one of its repackaging facilities, Heartland Repack Services (“Heartland”), as described in further detail at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addressing and resolving these issues, the Company continues to experience increased costs and as a result, the three months ended June 30, 2007 included special charges of $4.9 million pretax (approximately $4.0 million and $0.9 million was recorded in the cost of sales and operating expense sections of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively) ($3.0 million aftertax) for these increased costs. The Company maintains product recall, property and casualty and business interruption insurance, and the extent of insurance recovery for these expenses is currently being reviewed by its outside advisors. As of June 30, 2007, no receivables for insurance recoveries have been recorded by the Company.

41

(iii) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $9.0 million pretax ($5.5 million aftertax) for litigation-related professional expenses in connection with the administrative subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts, the purported class and derivative actions, the Company’s lawsuit against United, the inquiry conducted by the Attorney General’s office in Michigan relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program, the investigation by the federal government and certain states relating to drug substitutions and the Company’s response to subpoenas it received relating to other legal proceedings to which the Company is not a party. With respect to these proceedings to which the Company is a party, see further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

The three months ended June 30, 2006 included the following charges, which primarily impacted the Pharmacy Services segment, that management considers to be special items, and not related to Omnicare’s ordinary course of business:

(i) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $19.3 million pretax ($18.6 million aftertax) to increase the previously established settlement reserve relating to previously disclosed inquiries by the federal government and certain states concerning the substitution of three generic pharmaceuticals by the Company. This special litigation charge represented the Company’s estimate of the additional settlement amounts and associated costs under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 5, “Accounting for Contingencies” (“SFAS 5”). See further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

(ii) As previously disclosed, the Company recorded a special litigation charge of $54.0 million pretax, including $10.3 million and $43.7 million recorded in the net sales and litigation charges lines of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively ($46.7 million aftertax), in its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2006. This special litigation charge related to the inquiry conducted by the Attorney General’s Office in Michigan in connection with certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program, based on discussions between the Attorney General’s Office, the Company and its legal counsel. This special litigation charge represented the Company’s best estimate of the settlement amounts and associated costs under SFAS 5. See further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” notes of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

(iii) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $1.5 million pretax ($1.0 million aftertax) for litigation-related professional expenses in connection with the Company’s lawsuit against United.

(iv) Operating income included restructuring and other related charges of approximately $11.9 million pretax ($7.5 million aftertax) in connection with the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as well as the previously disclosed consolidation and productivity initiatives related, in part, to the integration of the NeighborCare acquisition and other related activities.

Pharmacy Services Segment

	Three months ended June 30,
	2007		2006
Net sales	$	1,498,918	$	1,598,604
Operating income	$	144,274	$	107,225

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Omnicare’s Pharmacy Services segment recorded sales of $1,498.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, down from the 2006 amount of $1,598.6 million by $99.7 million, or 6.2%. At June 30, 2007, Omnicare served long-term care facilities and other chronic care settings comprising approximately 1,389,000 beds as compared with approximately 1,419,000 beds served at June 30, 2006. Pharmacy Services sales were unfavorably impacted by a lower number of beds served, the effects of the reduction in reimbursement under the United Part D contract, the increased availability and utilization of generic drugs, the aforementioned deconsolidation of the pharmacy joint-venture operations and the impact of a bed mix shift toward assisted living. Partially offsetting these factors were drug price inflation, the impact of acquisitions and year-over-year growth in hospice pharmacy and specialty pharmacy services. While the Company is focused on reducing its costs to mitigate the impact of drug pricing and reimbursement issues, there can be no assurance that such issues or other pricing and reimbursement pressures will not adversely impact the Pharmacy Services segment.

Operating income of the Pharmacy Services segment was $144.3 million in the second quarter of 2007, a $37.1 million increase as compared with the $107.2 million earned in the comparable period of 2006. As a percentage of the segment’s sales, operating income was 9.6% for the second quarter of 2007, compared with 6.7% in 2006. Operating income in 2007 was impacted favorably by the year-over-year impact of the aforementioned special items, increased availability and utilization of higher margin generic drugs, drug purchasing improvements, as well as the Company’s continued integration of prior-period acquisitions and productivity enhancements, including the restructuring program relating, in part, to the NeighborCare acquisition and the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as further discussed in the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A. Partially offsetting these factors was the unfavorable impact of a lower number of beds served, the aforementioned increase in the provision for doubtful accounts and the aforementioned reduction in the reimbursement rates under the United Part D contract.

The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues directly or indirectly from government-sponsored programs, principally the federal Medicare program and to a lesser extent state Medicaid programs. As part of ongoing operations, the Company and its customers are

43

subject to regulatory changes in the level of reimbursement received from the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Since 1997, Congress has passed a number of federal laws that have effected major changes in the healthcare system.

The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (the “BBA”) mandated a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for Medicare-eligible residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”). Under PPS, Medicare pays SNFs a fixed fee per patient per day based upon the acuity level of the resident, covering substantially all items and services furnished during a Medicare-covered stay, including pharmacy services. PPS initially resulted in a significant reduction of reimbursement to SNFs. Congress subsequently sought to restore some of the reductions in reimbursement resulting from PPS. One provision gave SNFs a temporary rate increase for certain specific high-acuity patients beginning April 1, 2000, and ending when the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) implemented a refined patient classification system under PPS. For several years, CMS did not implement such refinements, thus continuing the additional rate increase for certain high-acuity patients through federal fiscal year 2005.

On August 4, 2005, CMS issued its final SNF PPS rule for fiscal year 2006. Under the rule, CMS added nine patient classification categories to the PPS patient classification system, thus triggering the expiration of the high-acuity payments add-ons. However, CMS estimated that the rule would have a slightly positive financial impact on SNFs in fiscal year 2006 because the $1.02 billion reduction from the expiration of the add-on payments would be more than offset by a $510 million increase in the nursing case-mix weight for all of the resource utilization group categories and a $530 million increase associated with various updates to the payment rates (including updates to the wage and market basket indexes), resulting in a $20 million overall increase in payments for fiscal year 2006. The new patient classification refinements became effective on January 1, 2006, and the market basket increase became effective October 1, 2005. On July 31, 2006, CMS issued the update to the SNF PPS rates for fiscal year 2007. Effective October 1, 2006, SNFs receive the full 3.1 percent market basket increase to rates, increasing payments to SNFs by approximately $560 million for fiscal year 2007. On August 3, 2007, CMS published its final SNF PPS update for fiscal year 2008. Effective October 1, 2007 SNFs will receive a 3.3 percent market basket increase, which will increase Medicare payments to SNFs by approximately $690 million in fiscal year 2008. The final rule also includes several policy and payment provisions, which were included in the proposed rule, including rebasing the market basket, which currently reflects data from fiscal 1997, to a base year of fiscal year 2004; revisions to calculate the SNF market basket (including revising the pharmacy component); changing the threshold for forecast error adjustments from the current 0.25 percentage point to 0.5 percentage point; and continuing a special adjustment made to cover the additional services required by nursing home residents with HIV/AIDS. While the fiscal year 2007 and 2008 SNF PPS rates do not decrease payments to SNFs, the loss of revenues associated with future changes in SNF payments could, in the future, have an adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company’s SNF clients which could, in turn, adversely affect the timing or level of their payments to Omnicare.

Moreover, on February 8, 2006, the President signed into law the Deficit Reduction Act (“DRA”), which will reduce net Medicare and Medicaid spending by approximately $11 billion over five years. Among other things, the legislation reduces Medicare SNF bad debt payments by 30 percent for those individuals who are not dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid. This

44

provision is expected to reduce payments to SNFs by $100 million over 5 years (fiscal years 2006-2010). On February 5, 2007, the Bush Administration released its fiscal year 2008 budget proposal, which includes legislative and administrative proposals that would reduce Medicare spending by approximately $5.3 billion in fiscal year 2008 and $75.8 billion over 5 years. Among other things, the budget would provide no annual update for SNFs in 2008 and a -0.65 percent adjustment to the update annually thereafter. The budget also would move toward site-neutral post-hospital payments to limit perceived inappropriate incentives for five conditions commonly treated in both SNFs and inpatient rehabilitation facilities. The budget proposal also would eliminate all bad debt reimbursements for unpaid beneficiary cost-sharing over four years. Congress may yet consider these and other proposals in the future that would further restrict Medicare funding for SNFs.

In December 2003, Congress enacted the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (“MMA”), which includes a major expansion of the Medicare prescription drug benefit under a new Medicare Part D.

Under the new prescription drug benefit, Medicare beneficiaries may enroll in prescription drug plans offered by private entities (or in a “fallback” plan offered on behalf of the government through a contractor, to the extent private entities fail to offer a plan in a given area), which provide coverage of outpatient prescription drugs (collectively, “Part D Plans”). Part D Plans include both plans providing the drug benefit on a stand-alone basis and Medicare Advantage plans providing drug coverage as a supplement to an existing medical benefit under that Medicare Advantage plan, most commonly a health maintenance organization plan. Medicare beneficiaries generally have to pay a premium to enroll in a Part D Plan, with the premium amount varying from plan to plan, although CMS provides various federal subsidies to Part D Plans to reduce the cost to beneficiaries. Medicare beneficiaries who are also entitled to benefits under a state Medicaid program (so-called “dual eligibles”) now have their prescription drug costs covered by the new Medicare drug benefit, including the nursing home residents Omnicare serves, whose drug costs were previously covered by state Medicaid programs. In 2006, approximately 41% of Omnicare’s revenue was derived from beneficiaries covered under the federal Medicare Part D program.

CMS provides premium and cost-sharing subsidies to Part D Plans with respect to dual eligible residents of nursing homes. Such dual eligibles are not required to pay a premium for enrollment in a Part D Plan, so long as the premium for the Part D Plan in which they are enrolled is at or below the premium subsidy, nor are they required to meet deductibles or pay copayment amounts. Further, all dual eligibles who had not affirmatively enrolled in a Part D Plan as of December 31, 2005 were automatically enrolled into a Prescription Drug Plan (“PDP”) by CMS on a random basis from among those PDPs meeting CMS criteria for low-income premiums in the PDP region. As is the case for any nursing home beneficiary, such dual eligible beneficiaries may select a different Part D Plan at any time through the Part D enrollment process. In sum, dual eligible residents of nursing homes are entitled to have their prescription drug costs covered by a Part D Plan, provided that the prescription drugs which they are taking are either on the Part D Plan’s formulary, or an exception to the plan’s formulary is granted. CMS requires the formularies of Part D Plans to include the types of drugs most commonly needed by Medicare beneficiaries and an exceptions process to provide coverage for medically necessary drugs.

45

Pursuant to the final Part D rule, effective January 1, 2006, the Company obtains reimbursement for drugs it provides to enrollees of a given Part D Plan in accordance with the terms of agreements negotiated between it and that Part D Plan. The Company has entered into such agreements with nearly all Part D Plan sponsors under which it will provide drugs and associated services to their enrollees. The Company continues to have ongoing discussions with Part D Plans in the ordinary course and may, as appropriate, renegotiate agreements. Further, the proportion of the Company’s Part D business serviced under specific agreements may change over time. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the reimbursement terms which currently apply to the Company’s Part D business will not change. Moreover, as expected in the transition to a new program of this magnitude, certain administrative and payment issues have arisen, resulting in higher operating expenses, as well as outstanding gross accounts receivable (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowance for doubtful accounts) for copays and rejected claims. As of June 30, 2007, copays outstanding from Part D Plans were approximately $29 million, of which approximately $20 million relates to 2006. Additionally, as of June 30, 2007, Part D rejected claims outstanding from Part D Plans for the 2006 transitional year were approximately $21 million. Until all administrative and payment issues are fully resolved, there can be no assurance that the impact of the Part D Drug Benefit on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows will not change based on the outcome of any unforeseen future developments.

The MMA does not change the manner in which Medicare pays for drugs for Medicare beneficiaries covered under a Medicare Part A stay. The Company continues to receive reimbursement for drugs provided to such residents from the SNFs, in accordance with the terms of the agreements it has negotiated with each SNF. The Company also continues to receive reimbursement from the state Medicaid programs, albeit to a greatly reduced extent, for those Medicaid beneficiaries not eligible for the Part D program, including those under age 65, and for certain drugs specifically excluded from Medicare Part D.

CMS has issued subregulatory guidance on many aspects of the final Part D rule, including the provision of pharmaceutical services to long-term care residents. CMS has also expressed some concerns about pharmacies’ receipt of discounts, rebates and other price concessions from drug manufacturers. Specifically, in a finalized “Call Letter” for the 2007 calendar year, CMS indicated that for 2007, CMS is requiring Part D sponsors to have policies and systems in place, as part of their drug utilization management programs, to protect beneficiaries and reduce costs when long-term care pharmacies are subject to incentives to move market share through access/performance rebates from drug manufacturers. For the purposes of managing and monitoring drug utilization, especially where such rebates exist, CMS instructs Part D Plan sponsors to require pharmacies to disclose to the Part D Plan sponsor any discounts, rebates and other direct or indirect remuneration designed to directly or indirectly influence or impact utilization of Part D drugs. CMS stated that Plan sponsors should provide assurances that such information will remain confidential. CMS has recently issued subregulatory guidelines specifying the information that CMS is requiring from Plan sponsors with respect to rebates paid to long-term care pharmacies. CMS has also issued draft reporting requirements for 2008 which would, among other things, require disclosure of rebates provided to long-term care pharmacies at a more detailed level. CMS has not yet issued final reporting requirements for 2008. The

46

Company is working with Plan sponsors with respect to the format, terms and conditions under which information would be provided.

CMS has indicated it will continue to issue guidance on the Part D program as it is implemented. The Company is continuing to monitor issues relating to implementation of the Part D benefit, and until further agency guidance is known and until all administrative and payment issues associated with the transition to this massive program are fully resolved, there can be no assurance that the impact of the final rule or the outcome of other potential developments relating to its implementation on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows will not change based on the outcome of any unforeseen future developments.

The MMA also changed the Medicare payment methodology and conditions for coverage of certain items of durable medical equipment prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (“DMEPOS”) under Medicare Part B. In 2006, approximately 1% of the Company’s revenue was derived from beneficiaries covered under Medicare Part B. The changes include a temporary freeze in annual increases in payments for durable medical equipment from 2004 through 2008, new clinical conditions for payment, quality standards (applied by CMS-approved accrediting organizations), and competitive bidding requirements. On April 10, 2007, CMS issued a final rule establishing the Medicare competitive bidding program. Enteral nutrients, equipment and supplies and oxygen equipment and supplies are among the 10 categories of DMEPOS included in the first round of the competitive bidding program for 10 geographic areas beginning July 1, 2008 ( a delay from the previously-announced implementation date of April 1, 2008). Additional types of DMEPOS may be included in subsequent rounds of competitive bidding when the program is expanded in 2009. The Company has submitted bids for nine competitive bidding areas. Awards are expected to be announced in February 2008.

The MMA also includes administrative reforms designed to improve Medicare program operations. It is uncertain at this time the impact that the MMA’s legislative reforms ultimately will have on the Company.

With respect to Medicaid, the BBA repealed the “Boren Amendment” federal payment standard for Medicaid payments to nursing facilities, giving states greater latitude in setting payment rates for such facilities. The law also granted states greater flexibility to establish Medicaid managed care programs without the need to obtain a federal waiver. Although these waiver programs generally exempt institutional care, including nursing facilities and institutional pharmacy services, some states do use managed care principles in their long-term care programs. Likewise, the DRA includes several changes to the Medicaid program designed to rein in program spending. These include, among others, strengthening the Medicaid asset transfer restrictions for persons seeking to qualify for Medicaid long-term care coverage, which could, due to the timing of the penalty period, increase facilities’ exposure to uncompensated care. This provision is expected to reduce Medicaid spending by an estimated $2.4 billion over 5 years. The law also gives states greater flexibility to expand access to home and community based services by allowing states to provide these services as an optional benefit without undergoing the waiver approval process, and includes a new demonstration to encourage states to provide long-term care services in a community setting to individuals who currently receive Medicaid services in nursing homes.

47

Together, these provisions could increase state funding for home and community-based services, while prompting states to cut funding for nursing facilities. No assurances can be given that state Medicaid programs ultimately will not change the reimbursement system for long-term care or pharmacy services.

The DRA also changed the so-called federal upper limit payment rules for multiple source prescription drugs covered under Medicaid. Like the current upper limit, it only applies to drug ingredient costs and does not include dispensing fees, which will continue to be determined by the states. First, the DRA redefined a multiple source drug subject to the upper limit rules to be a covered outpatient drug that has at least one other drug product that is therapeutically equivalent. Thus, the federal upper limit is triggered when there are two or more therapeutic equivalents, instead of three or more as was previously the case. Second, effective January 1, 2007, the DRA changed the federal upper payment limit from 150 percent of the lowest published price for a drug (which is usually the average wholesale price) to 250 percent of the lowest average manufacturer price (“AMP”). Congress expected these DRA provisions to reduce federal and state Medicaid spending by $8.4 billion over five years. On July 17, 2007, CMS issued a final rule to implement changes to the upper limit rules. Among other things, the final rule: establishes a new federal upper limit calculation for multiple source drugs that is based on 250 percent of the lowest AMP in a drug class; promotes transparency in drug pricing by requiring CMS to post AMP amounts on its web site; and establishes a uniform definition for AMP. Among other things, the final rule provides that sales of drugs to long-term care pharmacies for supply to nursing homes and assisted living facilities (as well as associated rebates and other price concessions) are not to be taken into account in determining AMP where such sales can be identified with adequate documentation, and that any AMPs which are not at least 40% of the next highest AMP will not be taken into account in determining the upper limit amount (the so-called “outlier” test). While final, CMS will accept comments on the AMP definition and outlier test portions of the rule for a period of 180 days. With the advent of Medicare Part D, the Company’s revenues from state Medicaid programs are substantially lower than has been the case previously. However, some of the Company’s agreements with Part D Plans and other payors have incorporated the Medicaid upper limit rules into the pricing mechanisms for its prescription drugs. Until the new upper limit amounts are published by CMS, the Company cannot predict the impact of the final rule on the Company’s business. There can be no assurance, however, that the changes under the DRA or other efforts by payors to limit reimbursement for certain drugs will not have an adverse impact on the Company’s business.

President Bush’s fiscal year 2008 budget proposal includes a series of proposals impacting Medicaid, including legislative and administrative changes that would reduce Medicaid payments by almost $26 billion over five years. Among other things, the proposed budget would further reduce the federal upper limit reimbursement for multiple source drugs to 150 percent of the AMP of the lowest priced drug in the group, and allow states to use private sector formulary management techniques to leverage greater discounts through negotiations with drug manufacturers. Many of the proposed policy changes would require congressional approval to implement. While the Company has endeavored to adjust to these types of funding pressures in the past, there can be no assurance that these or future changes in Medicaid payments to nursing facilities, pharmacies, or managed care systems, or their potential impact on payments under agreements with Part D Plans, will not have an adverse impact on its business.

48

Two recent actions at the federal level could impact Medicaid payments to nursing facilities. The Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 modified several Medicaid policies including, among other things, reducing the limit on Medicaid provider taxes from 6 percent (now in regulations) to 5.5 percent from January 1, 2008 through September 30, 2011. The Bush Administration had been expected to issue regulations calling for deeper cuts in this funding. Second, on January 18, 2007, CMS published a proposed rule designated to ensure that Medicaid payments to governmentally-operated nursing facilities and certain other health care providers are based on actual costs and that state financing arrangements are consistent with the Medicaid statute. CMS estimates that the rule, if finalized, would save $120 million during the first year and $3.87 billion over five years. On March 23, 2007, CMS published a proposed rule that would implement this legislation, and make other clarifications to the standards for determining the permissibility of provider tax arrangements.

On October 4, 2006, the plaintiffs in New England Carpenters Health Benefits Fund et al. v. First DataBank, Inc. and McKesson Corporation, CA No. 1:05-CV-11148-PBS (United District Court for the District of Massachusetts) and defendant First DataBank, Inc. (“First DataBank”) entered into a settlement agreement relating to First DataBank’s publication of average wholesale price (“AWP”). AWP is a pricing benchmark that is widely used to calculate a portion of the reimbursement payable to pharmacy providers for the drugs and biologicals they provide, including under State Medicaid programs, Medicare Part D Plans and certain of the Company’s contracts with long-term care facilities. The settlement agreement would require First DataBank to cease publishing AWP two years after the settlement becomes effective unless a competitor of First DataBank is then publishing AWP, and would require that First DataBank modify the manner in which it calculates AWP until First DataBank ceases publishing same. On June 6, 2007 the Court granted preliminary approval to an amended settlement agreement. Although the settlement agreement is yet subject to final approval of the court, the Company is evaluating the potential impact of the settlement in the context of certain of the contracts that it has with various payors and the actions that may be taken, if necessary, to offset or otherwise mitigate such impact. In addition, the government and private health insurance programs could discontinue or modify the use of AWP or otherwise implement payment methods that reduce the reimbursement for drugs and biologicals. There can be no assurance, however, that the First DataBank settlement, if approved, or actions, if any, by the government or private health insurance programs relating to AWP would not have an adverse impact on the Company’s reimbursement for drugs and biologicals and have implications for the use of AWP as a benchmark from which pricing in the pharmaceutical industry is negotiated, which could adversely affect the Company. In a related case, District Council 37 Health and Security Plan v. Medi-Span, CA No. 1:07-CV-10988-PBS (United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts), in which Medi-Span is accused of misrepresenting pharmaceutical prices by relying on and publishing First Databank’s price list, the parties entered into a similar settlement agreement, and the Court granted preliminary approval of the agreement on June 21, 2007.

Longer term, funding for federal and state healthcare programs must consider the aging of the population and the growth in enrollees as eligibility is expanded; the escalation in drug costs owing to higher drug utilization among seniors and the introduction of new, more efficacious but also more expensive medications; and the long-term financing of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Given competing national priorities, it remains difficult to predict the outcome and impact on the

49

Company of any changes in healthcare policy relating to the future funding of the Medicare and Medicaid programs.

Demographic trends indicate that demand for long-term care will increase well into the middle of this century as the elderly population grows significantly. Moreover, those over 65 consume a disproportionately high level of healthcare services, including prescription drugs, when compared with the under-65 population. There is widespread consensus that appropriate pharmaceutical care is generally considered the most cost-effective form of treatment for the chronic ailments afflicting the elderly and also one that is able to improve the quality of life. Further, new drug development is yielding promising new drugs targeted at the diseases of the elderly. These new drugs may be more expensive than older, less effective drug therapies due to rising research costs. However, they are more effective in curing or ameliorating illness and in lowering overall healthcare costs by reducing, among other things, hospitalizations, physician visits, nursing time and lab tests. These trends not only support long-term growth for the geriatric pharmaceutical industry but also containment of healthcare costs and the well-being of the nation’s growing elderly population.

In order to fund this growing demand, the Company anticipates that the government and the private sector will continue to review, assess and possibly alter healthcare delivery systems and payment methodologies. While it cannot at this time predict the ultimate effect of the Medicare Part D drug benefit or any further initiatives on Omnicare’s business, management believes that the Company’s expertise in geriatric pharmaceutical care and pharmaceutical cost management position Omnicare to help meet the challenges of today’s healthcare environment. Further, while volatility can occur from time to time in the contract research business owing to factors such as the success or failure of its clients’ compounds, the timing or budgetary constraints of its clients, or consolidation within our client base, new drug discovery remains an important priority of drug manufacturers. Drug manufacturers, in order to optimize their research and development efforts, will continue to turn to contract research organizations to assist them in accelerating drug research development and commercialization.

CRO Services Segment

	Three months ended June 30,
	2007		2006
Revenues	$	50,239	$	42,506
Operating income	$	2,904	$	1,301

50

Three Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Omnicare’s CRO Services segment recorded revenues of $50.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, which increased by $7.7 million, or 18.2% from the $42.5 million recorded in the same prior-year period. In accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 01-14, “Income Statement Characterization of Reimbursements Received for “Out-of-Pocket” Expenses Incurred” (“EITF No. 01-14”), the Company included $8.2 million and $6.1 million of reimbursable out-of-pockets in its CRO Services segment reported revenue and direct cost amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Revenues for 2007 were higher than in the same prior-year period primarily due to the commencement and ramp-up of projects that were awarded in 2006 and in the first quarter of 2007, exceeding project terminations and cancellations.

Operating income in the CRO Services segment was $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2007 compared with $1.3 million in 2006, an increase of $1.6 million. As a percentage of the segment’s revenue, operating income was 5.8% in the second quarter of 2007 compared with 3.1% in the same period of 2006. This increase is primarily attributable to the year-over-year decline in pretax restructuring and other related charges of approximately $0.8 million, as well as the favorable impact of the increase in revenues discussed above. Backlog at June 30, 2007 was $315.5 million, representing an increase of $13.6 million from the December 31, 2006 backlog of $301.9 million, and an increase of $28.0 million from the June 30, 2006 backlog of $287.5 million.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Total net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2007 decreased to $3,126.2 million from $3,299.7 million in the comparable prior-year period. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 was $92.2 million versus $61.6 million earned in the comparable 2006 period. Diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were $0.76 versus $0.50 in the same prior-year period. EBITDA totaled $287.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared with $272.7 million for the same period of 2006.

The Company continues to be impacted by the unilateral reduction by United in the reimbursement rates paid by United to Omnicare by switching to its PacifiCare pharmacy network contract for services rendered by Omnicare to beneficiaries of United’s drug benefit plans under the Medicare Part D program. The differential in rates that resulted from United’s action reduced sales and operating profit in the first six months of 2007 by approximately $63 million (approximately $39 million aftertax). The unilateral reduction in reimbursement rates began in April 2006; the impact on the first half of 2006 was approximately $22 million (approximately $14 million aftertax). This matter is currently the subject of litigation initiated by Omnicare and is before the federal court in the Northern District of Illinois. See further discussion at the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

Financial results for the first six months of 2007 also reflect a change to the equity method of accounting for certain pharmacy joint venture operations in which the Company owns less than a 100% interest, which was effective in the third quarter of 2006. Accordingly, the

51

deconsolidation of these operations excluded net sales of approximately $56 million for the first six months of 2007 but had no impact on earnings.

Net sales for the six months were unfavorably impacted by a lower number of beds served, the United Part D contract, the deconsolidation of the pharmacy joint-venture operations and the impact of generic drugs, partially offset by the favorable impact of drug price inflation, acquisitions and growth in hospice pharmacy and specialty pharmacy services and CRO Services revenues. See discussion of sales and operating profit results in more detail at the “Pharmacy Services Segment” and “CRO Services Segment” captions below.

The Company’s consolidated gross profit of $776.8 million decreased $40.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 from the same prior-year period amount of $816.8 million. Gross profit as a percentage of total net sales of 24.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2007, was consistent with the 24.8% experienced during the comparable 2006 period. Gross profit was favorably impacted in the 2007 period largely as a result of the increased availability and utilization of higher margin generic drugs, drug purchasing improvements, the continued integration of prior-period acquisitions and year-over-year growth in hospice pharmacy and specialty pharmacy services. Offsetting these factors was the gross profit impact of the aforementioned reduction in net sales, including the reduction in reimbursement under the United Part D contract and a lower number of beds served, as well as a special charge relating to the incremental costs associated with the closure of the Company’s Heartland repackaging facility as further described below.

Omnicare’s consolidated operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $512.4 million were higher than the comparable prior-year amount of $487.1 million by $25.3 million. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales amounted to 16.4% in the first six months of 2007, representing an increase from the 14.8% experienced in the comparable prior-year period. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2007 were unfavorably impacted primarily by a $23.6 million increase in the provision for doubtful accounts and a $6.7 million increase in periodic pension costs. Partially offsetting the increased operating expenses were the favorable impact of the Company’s continued integration of prior-period acquisitions, and productivity enhancements, including the restructuring program relating to the NeighborCare acquisition and the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as further discussed in the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A.

Investment income for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $4.0 million was slightly lower than the $4.8 million earned in the comparable prior-year period, primarily due to lower average invested cash balances versus the prior year.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007 of $83.8 million is lower than the $85.5 million in the comparable prior-year period, primarily due to lower debt outstanding resulting from payments aggregating $200 million on the Term Loans in the latter half of 2006 and the first half of 2007, partially offset by increased interest rates for variable rate loans.

The effective income tax rate was 38.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2007, as compared to the rate of 52.9% for the same prior year period. The effective tax rates in 2007 and 2006 are higher than the federal statutory rate largely as a

52

result of the impact of state and local income taxes and various nondeductible expenses (primarily litigation costs in 2006).

Special Items:

The six months ended June 30, 2007 included the following charges/(credits), which primarily impacted the Pharmacy Services segment, that management considers to be special items, and not related to Omnicare’s ordinary course of business:

(i) Operating income included restructuring and other related charges of approximately $15.4 million pretax ($9.5 million aftertax), $17.0 million of which related to the implementation of the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, a major initiative designed to re-engineer the pharmacy operating model to increase efficiency and enhance customer growth, partially offset by a ($1.6) million credit adjustment to the previously disclosed consolidation and productivity initiatives related, in part, to the integration of the NeighborCare acquisition and other related activities. See further discussion at the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements and the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A.

(ii) During 2006, the Company experienced certain quality control and product recall issues, as well as fire damage, at its Heartland repackaging facility, as described in further detail at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addressing and resolving these issues, the Company continues to experience increased costs and as a result, the six months ended June 30, 2007 included special charges of $10.7 million pretax (approximately $8.3 million and $2.4 million was recorded in the cost of sales and operating expense sections of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively) ($6.6 million aftertax) for these increased costs. The Company maintains product recall, property and casualty and business interruption insurance, and the extent of insurance recovery for these expenses is currently being reviewed by its outside advisors. As of June 30, 2007, no receivables for insurance recoveries have been recorded by the Company.

(iii) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $15.9 million pretax ($9.8 million aftertax) for litigation-related professional expenses in connection with the administrative subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts, the purported class and derivative actions, the Company’s lawsuit against United, the inquiry conducted by the Attorney General’s office in Michigan relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program, the investigation by the federal government and certain states relating to drug substitutions and the Company’s response to subpoenas it received relating to other legal proceedings to which the Company is not a party. With respect to these proceedings to which the Company is a party, see further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

53

The six months ended June 30, 2006 included the following charges, which primarily impacted the Pharmacy Services segment, that management considers to be special items, and not related to Omnicare’s ordinary course of business:

(i) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $53.4 million pretax ($42.6 million aftertax) to establish a settlement reserve relating to previously disclosed inquiries by the federal government and certain states concerning the substitution of three generic pharmaceuticals by the Company. This special litigation charge represented the Company’s estimate of the settlement amounts and associated costs under SFAS 5. See further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

(ii) As previously disclosed, the Company recorded a special litigation charge of $54.0 million pretax, including $10.3 million and $43.7 million recorded in the net sales and litigation charges lines of the Consolidated Statements of Income, respectively ($46.7 million aftertax), in its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2006. This special litigation charge related to the inquiry conducted by the Attorney General’s Office in Michigan in connection with certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program, based on discussions between the Attorney General’s Office, the Company and its legal counsel. This special litigation charge represented the Company’s best estimate of the settlement amounts and associated costs under SFAS 5. See further discussion at the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

(iii) Operating income included a special litigation charge of $1.5 million pretax ($1.0 million aftertax) for litigation-related professional expenses in connection with the Company’s lawsuit against United.

(iv) Operating income included restructuring and other related charges of approximately $19.6 million pretax ($12.4 million aftertax) in connection with the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as well as the previously disclosed consolidation and productivity initiatives related, in part, to the integration of the NeighborCare acquisition and other related activities. See further discussion at the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A.

(v) Operating income included a special charge of approximately $6.1 million pretax ($3.9 million aftertax) associated with retention payments for certain NeighborCare employees as required under the acquisition agreement.

Pharmacy Services Segment

	Six months ended June 30,
	2007		2006
Net sales	$	3,028,561	$	3,215,156
Operating income	$	279,864	$	257,731

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Omnicare’s Pharmacy Services segment recorded sales of $3,028.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, down from the 2006 amount of $3,215.2 million by $186.6 million, or 5.8%. At June 30, 2007, Omnicare served long-term care facilities and other chronic care settings comprising approximately 1,389,000 beds as compared with approximately 1,419,000 beds served at June 30, 2006. Pharmacy Services sales were unfavorably impacted by a lower number of beds served, the increased availability and utilization of generic drugs, the effects of the reduction in reimbursement under the United Part D contract, the aforementioned deconsolidation of the pharmacy joint-venture operations and the impact of a bed mix shift toward assisted living. Partially offsetting these factors were drug price inflation, the impact of acquisitions, and year-over-year growth in hospice pharmacy and specialty pharmacy services. While the Company is focused on reducing its costs to mitigate the impact of drug pricing and reimbursement issues, there can be no assurance that such issues or other pricing and reimbursement pressures will not adversely impact the Pharmacy Services segment.

Operating income of the Pharmacy Services segment was $279.9 million in the first six months of 2007, a $22.2 million increase as compared with the $257.7 million earned in the comparable period of 2006. As a percentage of the segment’s sales, operating income was 9.2% for the first six months of 2007, compared with 8.0% in 2006. Operating income in 2007 was impacted favorably by the year-over-year impact of the aforementioned special items, the increased availability and utilization of higher margin generic drugs, drug purchasing improvement, as well as the Company’s continued integration of prior-period acquisitions and productivity enhancements, including the restructuring program relating, in part, to the NeighborCare acquisition and the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, as further discussed in the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” section of this MD&A. Partially offsetting these factors was a lower number of beds served, the unfavorable impact of the aforementioned reduction in the reimbursement rates under the United Part D contract and the aforementioned increase in the provision for doubtful accounts.

CRO Services Segment

	Six months ended June 30,
	2007		2006
Revenues	$	97,661	$	84,552
Operating income	$	3,634	$	2,464

Six Months Ended June 30, 2007 vs. 2006

Omnicare’s CRO Services segment recorded revenues of $97.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007, which increased by $13.1 million, or 15.5% from the $84.6 million recorded in the same prior-year period. In accordance with EITF Issue No. 01-14, the Company included $15.4 million and $12.3 million of reimbursable out-of-pockets in its CRO Services segment reported revenue and direct cost amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Revenues for 2007 were higher than in the same prior-year period primarily due to the commencement and ramp-up of projects that were awarded in 2006 and in the first quarter of 2007, exceeding project terminations and cancellations.

Operating income in the CRO Services segment was $3.6 million in the first six months of 2007 compared with $2.5 million in 2006, an increase of $1.1 million. As a percentage of the segment’s revenue, operating income was 3.7% in the first six months of 2007 compared with 2.9% in the same period of 2006. This increase is primarily attributable to the favorable impact of the aforementioned increase in revenues; offset in part by an increase in pretax restructuring and other related charges of approximately $0.8 million.

Restructuring and Other Related Charges

Omnicare Full Potential Plan

In the second quarter of 2006, the Company commenced the implementation of the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan, a major initiative designed to re-engineer the Company’s pharmacy operating model to increase efficiency and enhance customer growth. The “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan is expected to optimize resources across the entire organization by implementing best practices and a “hub-and-spoke” model whereby certain key support and production functions will be transferred to regional “hubs” specifically designed and managed to perform these tasks, with local “spoke” pharmacies focusing on time-sensitive services and customer-facing processes.

This program is expected to be completed over a 30-month period and is estimated to generate pretax savings in the range of $100 million to $120 million annually upon completion of the

56

initiative. It is anticipated that approximately one-half of these savings will be realized in cost of sales, with the remainder being realized in operating expenses. The program is estimated to result in total pretax restructuring and other related charges of approximately $80 million over this 30-month period. The charges primarily include severance pay, employment agreement buy-outs, excess lease costs, professional fees and other related costs. The Company recorded restructuring and other related charges for the “Omnicare Full Potential” Plan of approximately $17 million pretax (approximately $10.5 million aftertax) during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and approximately $17 million pretax (approximately $11 million aftertax) during the year ended December 31, 2006, (approximately $8 million pretax in the six months ended June 30, 2006). The remainder of the overall restructuring and other related charges will be recognized and disclosed over the remainder of 2007 and 2008 as various phases of the project are finalized and implemented. Incremental capital expenditures related to this program are expected to total approximately $40 million to $45 million over the 30-month period. The Company estimates that the initial phase of the program will lead to a reduction in force of approximately 1,200 positions, associated primarily with pharmacy operations. Approximately 860 of these positions have been eliminated as of June 30, 2007.

See further discussion at the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

2005 Program

In connection with the previously disclosed consolidation plans and other productivity initiatives to streamline pharmacy services (related, in part, to the NeighborCare acquisition) and contract research organization operations, including maximizing workforce and operating asset utilization, and producing a more cost-efficient, operating infrastructure (the “2005 Program”), the Company recorded restructuring and other related charges of approximately $11 million pretax (approximately $7 million aftertax) in the six months ended June 30, 2006. The 2005 Program initiatives required cumulative restructuring and other related charges of approximately $31 million before taxes through the third quarter of 2006. The restructuring liabilities associated with the 2005 Program were evaluated by the Company during the quarter ended June 30, 2007. During this review, it was determined that certain liabilities are no longer expected to be utilized as part of the activities remaining under the 2005 Program. In accordance with SFAS No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities,” the Company recorded adjustments to reduce the employee severance and employee agreement buy-out liabilities by approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million pretax, respectively, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007.

See further discussion at the “Restructuring and Other Related Charges” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2007 were $165.6 million compared with $141.8 million at December 31, 2006 (including restricted cash amounts of $14.4 million and $3.8 million, respectively).

The Company generated positive net cash flows from operating activities of $235.9 million during the six months ended June 30, 2007, compared with net cash flows from operating activities of $128.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2006. Compared to the same prior-year period, cash flow from operating activities was largely impacted by the favorable year-over-year trend in accounts receivable and accounts payable on operating cash flows. Cash flow for the first six months of 2006 was favorably impacted by the return of a deposit of approximately $38.3 million from one of the Company’s drug wholesalers. Operating cash flows were used primarily for debt payments, acquisition-related payments, capital expenditures, dividend payments, and to increase the Company’s cash position as compared with December 31, 2006.

Net cash used in investing activities was $98.8 million and $74.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Acquisitions of businesses required cash payments of $69.3 million (including amounts payable pursuant to acquisition agreements relating to pre-2007 acquisitions) in 2007, which were primarily funded by operating cash flows. Acquisitions of businesses during the first six months of 2006 required $51.1 million of cash payments (including amounts payable pursuant to acquisition agreements relating to pre-2006 acquisitions) which were primarily funded by proceeds from the issuance of common stock and operating cash flows. Omnicare’s capital requirements, in addition to the payment of debt and dividends, are primarily comprised of its acquisition program and capital expenditures, largely relating to investments in the Company’s information technology systems.

Net cash used in financing activities was $124.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007 as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $57.6 million for the comparable prior-year period. During the first six months of 2007, the Company paid down $100 million on the Company’s senior term A loan facility, maturing on July 28, 2010. Borrowings on the revolving credit facility totaled approximately $74 million during the first six months of 2007 and were completely repaid prior to the end of the period. In January 2006, the underwriters of the common stock offering completed by the Company in December 2005 exercised their option, in part, to purchase an additional 850,000 shares of common stock at $59.72 per share, for gross cash proceeds of approximately $51 million.

At June 30, 2007, there were no outstanding borrowings under the $800 million revolving credit facility, and $500 million in borrowings were outstanding under the senior term A loan facility due 2010. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had approximately $22.6 million outstanding relating to standby letters of credit, substantially all of which are subject to automatic annual renewals.

On May 25, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of 2.25 cents per common share for an indicated annual rate of 9 cents per common share for 2007,

58

which is consistent with the dividends paid in 2006. Aggregate dividends of $5.5 million were paid during each of the six month periods ended June 30, 2007 and 2006.

There were no known material commitments and contingencies outstanding at June 30, 2007, other than the contractual obligations summarized in the “Disclosures About Aggregate Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements” section of Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report, and as updated for significant changes in the six months ended June 30, 2007 in the caption below; certain acquisition-related payments potentially due in the future, including deferred payments, indemnification payments and payments originating from earnout and other provisions that may become payable; as well as the matters discussed in the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Legal Proceedings” section at Part II, Item 1 of this Filing.

The Company believes that net cash flows from operating activities, credit facilities and other short- and long-term debt financings will be sufficient to satisfy its future working capital needs, acquisition contingency commitments, debt servicing, capital expenditures and other financing requirements for the foreseeable future. The Company believes that external sources of financing are readily available and will access them as deemed appropriate (although no assurances can be given regarding the Company’s ability to obtain additional financing in the future).

To the extent that any debt would be paid off by Omnicare prior to the stated due date or refinanced, the estimated future interest costs would change accordingly.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had approximately $22.6 million outstanding relating to standby letters of credit, substantially all of which are subject to automatic annual renewals.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had two unconsolidated entities, Omnicare Capital Trust I, a statutory trust formed by the Company (the “Old Trust”) and Omnicare Capital Trust II (the “New Trust”), which were established for the purpose of facilitating the offerings of the 4.00% Trust Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities due 2033 (the “Old Trust PIERS”) and the Series B 4.00% Trust Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities (the “New Trust PIERS”), respectively. For financial reporting purposes, the Old Trust and New Trust are treated as equity method investments of the Company. The Old Trust and New Trust are 100%-owned finance subsidiaries of the Company. The Company has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the securities of the Old Trust and New Trust. The Old 4.00% Debentures issued by the Company to the Old Trust and the New 4.00% Debentures issued by the Company to the New Trust in connection with the issuance of the Old Trust PIERS and the New Trust PIERS, respectively, are presented as a single line item in Omnicare’s consolidated balance sheets and debt footnote disclosures. Additionally, the related disclosures concerning the Old Trust PIERS and the New Trust PIERS, the guarantees, and the Old 4.00% Debentures and New 4.00% Debentures are included in the “Debt” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Omnicare’s 2006 Annual Report. Omnicare records interest payable to the Old Trust and New Trust as interest expense in its consolidated statements of income.

As of June 30, 2007, the Company had no other unconsolidated entities, or any financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which might have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Collection of accounts receivable from customers is the Company’s primary source of operating cash flow and is critical to Omnicare’s operating performance and financial condition. Omnicare’s primary collection risk relates to facility, private pay and Part D customers. The Company provides a reserve for accounts receivable that could become uncollectible by establishing an allowance to reduce the carrying value of such receivables to their estimated net realizable value. Omnicare establishes this allowance for doubtful accounts using the specific identification approach, and considering such factors as historical collection experience (i.e., payment history and credit losses) and creditworthiness, specifically identified credit risks, aging of accounts receivable by payor category, current and expected economic conditions and other relevant factors. Management reviews this allowance on an ongoing basis for appropriateness. Judgment is used to assess the collectibility of account balances and the economic ability of customers to pay.

The Company computes and monitors its accounts receivable days sales outstanding (“DSO”) in order to evaluate the liquidity and collection patterns of its accounts receivable. DSO is calculated by averaging the beginning and end of quarter accounts receivable, less contractual allowances and the allowance for doubtful accounts, to derive “average accounts receivable,” and dividing average accounts receivable by the sales amount (excluding reimbursable out-of-pockets) for the related quarter. The resultant percentage is multiplied by 92 days to derive the DSO amount. Omnicare’s DSO approximated 91 days at June 30, 2007, which was higher than the December 31, 2006 DSO of approximately 86 days, partially as a result of the averaging method the Company uses in the calculation, considering that net accounts receivable at June 30, 2007 was $16.3 million lower than at December 31, 2006. As previously disclosed, the Company has experienced on-going administrative and payment issues associated with the Medicare Part D implementation, resulting in outstanding gross accounts receivable (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowances for doubtful accounts) for copays and rejected claims. As of June 30, 2007, copays outstanding from Part D Plans were approximately $29 million, of which approximately $20 million relates to 2006. Additionally, as of June 30, 2007, Part D rejected claims outstanding from Part D Plans for the 2006 transitional year were approximately $21 million. Also impacting the overall DSO is the aging in accounts receivable relating to several of the Company’s larger nursing home chain customers. On July 16, 2007, the Company commenced legal action against a group of its customers for, among other things, the collection of past-due receivables that are owed to the Company. Specifically, approximately $85 million is owed to the Company by this group of customers as of June 30, 2007, of which approximately $72 million is past due based on applicable payment terms.

The allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2007 was $205.2 million, compared with $191.0 million at December 31, 2006. These allowances for doubtful accounts represented 12.0% and 11.2% of gross receivables (net of contractual allowances) as of June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, respectively. Unforeseen future developments could lead to changes in the Company’s bad debt expense levels and future allowance for doubtful accounts percentages,

61

which could materially impact the overall financial results, financial position or cash flows of the Company. For example, a one percentage point increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of gross receivables (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowances for doubtful accounts) as of June 30, 2007 would result in an increase to the allowance for doubtful accounts, as well as bad debt expense, of approximately $17.1 million pretax.

The following table is an aging of the Company’s June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 gross accounts receivable (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowances for doubtful accounts), aged based on payment terms and categorized based on the four primary overall types of accounts receivable characteristics (in thousands):

Income Taxes

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties,

62

accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007, as required. As a result, the Company recognized an increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $17.9 million, $5.8 million of which was accounted for as a reduction to the January 1, 2007 retained earnings balance and $12.1 million of which was accounted for as an increase to goodwill.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. Except as otherwise required by law, the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Omnicare’s primary market risk exposure relates to variable interest rate risk through its borrowings. Accordingly, market risk loss is primarily defined as the potential loss in earnings due to higher interest rates on variable-rate debt of the Company. The modeling technique used by Omnicare for evaluating interest rate risk exposure involves performing sensitivity analysis on the variable-rate debt, assuming a change in interest rates of 100 basis-points. The Company’s debt obligations at June 30, 2007 include $500.0 million outstanding under the variable-rate term A loan, due 2010, at an interest rate of 6.57% at June 30, 2007 (a 100 basis-point change in the interest rate would increase or decrease pretax interest expense by approximately $5.0 million per year); $47.0 million borrowed on a variable-rate term loan, due 2010, at an interest rate of 6.47% at June 30, 2007 (a 100 basis-point change in the interest rate would increase or decrease pretax interest expense by approximately $0.5 million per year); $250.0 million outstanding under its fixed-rate 6.125% Senior Notes, due 2013; $225.0 million outstanding under its fixed-rate 6.75% Senior Notes, due 2013; $525 million outstanding under its fixed-rate 6.875% Senior Notes, due 2015; $345.0 million outstanding under its fixed-rate 4.00% Convertible Debentures, due 2033; and $977.5 million outstanding under its fixed-rate 3.25% Convertible Debentures, due 2035 (with an optional repurchase right of holders on December 15, 2015). In connection with its offering of $250.0 million of 6.125% Senior Notes, during the second quarter of 2003,

64

the Company entered into a Swap Agreement on all $250.0 million of its aggregate principal amount of the 6.125% Senior Notes. Under the Swap Agreement, which hedges against exposure to long-term U.S. dollar interest rates, the Company receives a fixed rate of 6.125% and pays a floating rate based on LIBOR with a maturity of six months, plus a spread of 2.27%. The estimated LIBOR-based floating rate (including the 2.27% spread) was 7.66% at June 30, 2007 (a 100 basis-point change in the interest rate would increase or decrease pretax interest expense by approximately $2.5 million per year). The Swap Agreement, which matches the terms of the 6.125% Senior Notes, is designated and accounted for as a fair value hedge. The Company is accounting for the Swap Agreement in accordance with SFAS No. 133, as amended, so changes in the fair value of the Swap Agreement are offset by changes in the recorded carrying value of the related 6.125% Senior Notes. The fair value of the Swap Agreement of approximately $17.2 million at June 30, 2007 is recorded as a noncurrent liability and a reduction to the book carrying value of the related 6.125% Senior Notes. At June 30, 2007, the fair value of Omnicare’s variable rate debt facilities approximates the carrying value, as the effective interest rates fluctuate with changes in market rates.

The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt facilities is based on quoted market prices and is summarized as follows (in thousands):

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

	June 30, 2007				December 31, 2006
Financial Instrument:	Book Value		Market Value		Book Value		Market Value
6.125% senior subordinated notes, due 2013, gross	$	250,000	$	232,500	$	250,000	$	241,300
6.75% senior subordinated notes, due 2013		225,000		213,750		225,000		221,900
6.875% senior subordinated notes, due 2015		525,000		498,750		525,000		520,400
4.00% junior subordinated convertible debentures, due 2033		345,000		348,154		345,000		372,200
3.25% convertible senior debentures, due 2035		977,500		822,879		977,500		830,900

Embedded in the Old Trust PIERS, the New Trust PIERS and the 3.25% Convertible Debentures are two derivative instruments, specifically, a contingent interest provision and a contingent conversion parity provision. In addition, the 3.25% Convertible Debentures include an interest reset provision. The embedded derivatives are periodically valued by a third-party advisor, and at period end, the values of the derivatives embedded in the Old Trust PIERS, the New Trust PIERS and the 3.25% Convertible Debentures were not material. However, the values are subject to change, based on market conditions, which could affect the Company’s future results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

The Company has operations and revenue that occur outside of the U.S. and transactions that are settled in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, exposing it to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, the substantial portion of the Company’s operations and revenues and the substantial portion of the Company’s cash settlements are exchanged in U.S. dollars. Therefore, changes in foreign currency exchange rates do not represent a substantial market risk exposure to the Company.

The Company does not have any financial instruments held for trading purposes.

65

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Under applicable SEC regulations, management of a reporting company, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, must periodically evaluate the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures,” which are defined generally as controls and other procedures of a reporting company designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the reporting company in its periodic reports filed with the SEC (such as this Form 10-Q) is recorded, processed, accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Omnicare is an acquisitive company that continuously acquires and integrates new businesses. Throughout and following an acquisition, Omnicare focuses on analyzing the acquiree’s procedures and controls to determine their effectiveness and, where appropriate, implements changes to conform them to the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and concluded that they are effective.

(b) There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION:

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On May 18, 2006, an antitrust and fraud action entitled Omnicare, Inc. v. UnitedHealth Group, Inc., et al., 2:06-cv-00103-WOB, was filed by the Company in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky against UnitedHealth Group, Inc., PacifiCare Health Systems, Inc., and RxSolutions, Inc. d/b/a Prescription Solutions, asserting claims of violations of federal and state antitrust laws, civil conspiracy and common law fraud arising out of an alleged conspiracy by defendants to illegally and fraudulently coordinate their negotiations with the Company for Medicare Part D contracts as part of an effort to defraud the Company and fix prices. The complaint seeks, among other things, damages, injunctive relief and reformation of certain contracts. On June 5, 2006, the Company filed a first supplemental and amended complaint in which it asserted the identical claims. In an order dated November 9, 2006, a motion by defendants’ to transfer venue to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois was granted, but a motion to dismiss the antitrust claims was denied without prejudice, with leave to refile in the transferee court. On December 13, 2006, the Company and defendants submitted a joint status report in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, and the Court held a status conference on December 18, 2006. Defendants renewed their motion to dismiss the Company’s antitrust claims on December 22, 2006. The Company’s opposition to the motion

66

was filed with the court on January 22, 2007 and defendants’ reply papers were filed on January 29, 2007. The motion is now pending before the court. On March 7, 2007, the Court entered a Minute Order setting a discovery schedule for the litigation. Under the Order, fact discovery is to be completed by January 31, 2008, and expert discovery is to be completed by May 1, 2008. At the present time, both parties are engaged in fact discovery and related motion practice. The parties have engaged in extensive documentary discovery. The Court has scheduled a status conference for August 28, 2007 and on May 22, 2007 the Court entered a Minute Order setting a trial date of October 14, 2008.

The Company has received administrative subpoenas from the United States Attorney’s Office, District of Massachusetts, seeking information arising out of the Company’s relationships with certain manufacturers and distributors of pharmaceutical products and certain customers, as well as with respect to contracts with certain companies acquired by the Company. The Company believes that it has complied with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to these matters.

On July 11, 2006, the Attorney General’s Office in Michigan provided the Company’s legal counsel with information concerning its investigation relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program at Specialized Pharmacy Services, a subsidiary of the Company located in Michigan. On October 5, 2006, the Company entered into a voluntary settlement agreement and a two-year Corporate Integrity Agreement with the State of Michigan to resolve the Michigan Attorney General’s investigation relating to certain billing issues under the Michigan Medicaid program at Specialized Pharmacy Services. The settlement agreement does not include any finding of wrongdoing or any admission of liability. With respect to claims that Specialized Pharmacy Services was not billing properly for drugs provided to hospice patients, which were not covered by the settlement agreement, the Company has reached an agreement in principle to settle the matter with the State of Michigan. Although the final details of the agreement with respect to the hospice claims have not yet been resolved, it is anticipated that the Company will pay approximately $3.5 million to settle the matter. Please see the “Commitments and Contingencies” note of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Filing for a description of our Corporate Integrity Agreements.

On February 2 and February 13, 2006, respectively, two substantially similar putative class action lawsuits, entitled Indiana State Dist. Council of Laborers & HOD Carriers Pension & Welfare Fund v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., No. 2:06cv26 (“HOD Carriers”), and Chi v. Omnicare, Inc., et al., No. 2:06cv31 (“Chi”), were filed against Omnicare and two of its officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky purporting to assert claims for violation of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeking, among other things, compensatory damages and injunctive relief. The complaints, which purported to be brought on behalf of all open-market purchasers of Omnicare common stock from August 3, 2005 through January 27, 2006, alleged that Omnicare had artificially inflated its earnings by engaging in improper generic drug substitution and that defendants had made false and misleading statements regarding the Company’s business and prospects. On April 3, 2006, plaintiffs in the HOD Carriers case formally moved for consolidation and the appointment of lead plaintiff and lead counsel pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. On May 22, 2006, that motion was granted, the cases were consolidated, and a lead plaintiff and lead counsel were appointed. On July 20, 2006, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, adding a third officer as a defendant and new factual allegations primarily relating to revenue recognition, the valuation of receivables and the

67

valuation of inventories. On October 31, 2006, plaintiffs moved for leave to file a second amended complaint, which was granted on January 26, 2007, on the condition that no further amendments would be permitted absent extraordinary circumstances. Plaintiffs thereafter filed their second amended complaint on January 29, 2007. The second amended complaint (i) expands the putative class to include all purchasers of Omnicare common stock from August 3, 2005 through July 27, 2006, (ii) names two members of the Company’s board of directors as additional defendants, (iii) adds a new plaintiff and a new claim for violation of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 based on alleged false and misleading statements in the registration statement filed in connection with the Company’s December 2005 public offering, (iv) alleges that the Company failed to timely disclose its contractual dispute with UnitedHealth Group (see discussion of the UnitedHealth Group matter above), and (v) alleges that the Company failed to timely record certain special litigation reserves. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the second amended complaint on March 12, 2007, claiming that plaintiffs had failed adequately to plead loss causation, scienter or any actionable misstatement or omission. That motion was fully briefed as of May 1, 2007. In response to certain arguments relating to the individual claims of the named plaintiffs that were raised in defendants’ pending motion to dismiss, plaintiffs filed a motion to add, or in the alternative, to intervene an additional named plaintiff, Alaska Electrical Pension Fund, on July 27, 2007. Oral argument was held on defendants’ motion to dismiss on August 2, 2007 and the court reserved decision.

On February 13, 2006, two substantially similar shareholder derivative actions, entitled Isak v. Gemunder, et al., Case No. 06-CI-390, and Fragnoli v. Hutton, et al., Case No. 06-CI-389, were filed in Kentucky State Circuit Court, Kenton Circuit, against the members of Omnicare’s board of directors, individually, purporting to assert claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment arising out of the Company’s alleged violations of federal and state health care laws based upon the same purportedly improper generic drug substitution that is the subject of the federal purported class action lawsuits. The complaints seek, among other things, damages, restitution and injunctive relief. The Isak and Fragnoli actions were later consolidated by agreement of the parties. On January 12, 2007, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated action on the grounds that the dismissal of the substantially identical shareholder derivative action, Irwin v. Gemunder, et al., 2:06cv62, by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky on November 20, 2006 should be given preclusive effect and thus bars re-litigation of the issues already decided in Irwin. Instead of opposing that motion, on March 16, 2007, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint, which continues to name all of the directors as defendants and asserts the same claims, but attempts to bolster those claims by adding nearly all of the substantive allegations from the most recent complaint in the federal securities class action (see discussion of HOD Carriers above) and an amended complaint in Irwin that added the same factual allegations that were added to the consolidated amended complaint in the HOD Carriers action. On April 16, 2007, defendants filed a supplemental memorandum of law in further support of their pending motion to dismiss contending that the amended complaint should be dismissed on the same grounds previously articulated for dismissal, namely, the preclusive effect of the dismissal of the Irwin action. That motion has been fully briefed and oral argument has been scheduled for August 21, 2007.

The Company believes the above-described purported class and derivative actions are without merit and will be vigorously defended.

Although the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, there can be no assurance that the resolution of these matters will not have

68

a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

As part of its ongoing operations, the Company is subject to various inspections, audits, inquiries and similar actions by governmental/regulatory authorities responsible for enforcing the laws and regulations to which the Company is subject, including reviews of individual Omnicare pharmacy’s reimbursement documentation and administrative practices.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

The Omnicare 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K includes a detailed discussion of our risk factors. The information presented below updates and should be read in conjunction with the risk factors and information disclosed in that Form 10-K.

Risks Relating to Our Business

Federal and state healthcare legislation has significantly impacted our business, and future legislation and regulations are likely to affect us.

In recent years, federal legislation has resulted in major changes in the healthcare system, which significantly affected healthcare providers. The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (the “BBA”) mandated a prospective payment system (“PPS”) for Medicare-eligible residents of skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”). Under PPS, Medicare pays SNFs a fixed fee per patient per day based upon the acuity level of the resident, covering substantially all items and services furnished during a Medicare-covered stay, including pharmacy services. PPS initially resulted in a significant reduction of reimbursement to SNFs. Congress subsequently sought to restore some of the reductions in reimbursement resulting from PPS. One provision gave SNFs a temporary rate increase for certain specific high-acuity patients beginning April 1, 2000, and ending when the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (“CMS”) implemented a refined patient classification system under PPS. For several years, CMS did not implement such refinements, thus continuing the additional rate increase for certain high-acuity patients through federal fiscal year 2005.

On August 4, 2005, CMS issued its final SNF PPS rule for fiscal year 2006. Under the rule, CMS added nine patient classification categories to the PPS patient classification system, thus triggering the expiration of the high-acuity payments add-ons. However, CMS estimated that the rule would have a slightly positive financial impact on SNFs in fiscal year 2006 because the $1.02 billion reduction from the expiration of the add-on payments would be more than offset by a $510 million increase in the nursing case-mix weight for all of the resource utilization group categories and a $530 million increase associated with various updates to the payment rates (including updates to the wage and market basket indexes), resulting in a $20 million overall increase in payments for fiscal year 2006. The new patient classification refinements became effective on January 1, 2006, and the market basket increase became effective October 1, 2005. On July 31, 2006, CMS issued the update to the SNF PPS rates for fiscal year 2007. Effective October 1, 2006, SNFs receive the full 3.1 percent market basket increase to rates, increasing payments to SNFs by approximately $560 million for fiscal year 2007. On August 3, 2007, CMS published its final SNF PPS update for fiscal year 2008. Effective October 1, 2007 SNFs will receive a 3.3 percent market basket increase, which will increase Medicare payments to SNFs by approximately $690 million in fiscal year

69

2008. The final rule also includes several policy and payment provisions, which were included in the proposed rule, including rebasing the market basket, which currently reflects data from fiscal 1997, to a base year of fiscal year 2004; revisions to calculate the SNF market basket (including revising the pharmacy component); changing the threshold for forecast error adjustments from the current 0.25 percentage point to 0.5 percentage point; and continuing a special adjustment made to cover the additional services required by nursing home residents with HIV/AIDS. While the fiscal year 2007 and 2008 SNF PPS rates do not decrease payments to SNFs, the loss of revenues associated with future changes in SNF payments could, in the future, have an adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company’s SNF clients which could, in turn, adversely affect the timing or level of their payments to Omnicare.

Moreover, on February 8, 2006, the President signed into law the Deficit Reduction Act (“DRA”), which will reduce net Medicare and Medicaid spending by approximately $11 billion over five years. Among other things, the legislation reduces Medicare SNF bad debt payments by 30 percent for those individuals who are not dually eligible for Medicare and Medicaid. This provision is expected to reduce payments to SNFs by $100 million over 5 years (fiscal years 2006-2010). On February 5, 2007, the Bush Administration released its fiscal year 2008 budget proposal, which includes legislative and administrative proposals that would reduce Medicare spending by approximately $5.3 billion in fiscal year 2008 and $75.8 billion over 5 years. Among other things, the budget would provide no annual update for SNFs in 2008 and a -0.65 percent adjustment to the update annually thereafter. The budget also would move toward site-neutral post-hospital payments to limit perceived inappropriate incentives for five conditions commonly treated in both SNFs and inpatient rehabilitation facilities. The budget proposal also would eliminate all bad debt reimbursements for unpaid beneficiary cost-sharing over four years. Congress may yet consider these and other proposals in the future that would further restrict Medicare funding for SNFs.

In December 2003, Congress enacted the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (“MMA”) which includes a major expansion of the Medicare prescription drug benefit under a new Medicare Part D.

Under the new prescription drug benefit, Medicare beneficiaries may enroll in prescription drug plans offered by private entities (or in a “fallback” plan offered on behalf of the government through a contractor, to the extent private entities fail to offer a plan in a given area), which provide coverage of outpatient prescription drugs (collectively, “Part D Plans”). Part D Plans include both plans providing the drug benefit on a stand alone basis and Medicare Advantage plans providing drug coverage as a supplement to an existing medical benefit under that Medicare Advantage plan, most commonly a health maintenance organization plan. Medicare beneficiaries generally have to pay a premium to enroll in a Part D Plan, with the premium amount varying from plan to plan, although CMS provides various federal subsidies to Part D Plans to reduce the cost to beneficiaries. Medicare beneficiaries who are also entitled to benefits under a state Medicaid program (so-called “dual eligibles”) now have their prescription drug costs covered by the new Medicare drug benefit, including the nursing home residents Omnicare serves, whose drug costs were previously covered by state Medicaid programs. In 2006, approximately 41% of Omnicare’s revenue was derived from beneficiaries covered under the federal Medicare Part D program.

70

CMS provides premium and cost-sharing subsidies to Part D Plans with respect to dual eligible residents of nursing homes. Such dual eligibles are not required to pay a premium for enrollment in a Part D Plan, so long as the premium for the Part D Plan in which they are enrolled is at or below the premium subsidy, nor are they required to meet deductibles or pay copayment amounts. Further, all dual eligibles who had not affirmatively enrolled in a Part D Plan as of December 31, 2005 were automatically enrolled into a Prescription Drug Plan (“PDP”) by CMS on a random basis from among those PDPs meeting CMS criteria for low-income premiums in the PDP region. As is the case for any nursing home beneficiary, such dual eligible beneficiaries may select a different Part D Plan at any time through the Part D enrollment process. In sum, dual eligible residents of nursing homes are entitled to have their prescription drug costs covered by a Part D Plan, provided that the prescription drugs which they are taking are either on the Part D Plan’s formulary, or an exception to the plan’s formulary is granted. CMS requires the formularies of Part D Plans to include the types of drugs most commonly needed by Medicare beneficiaries and an exceptions process to provide coverage for medically necessary drugs.

Pursuant to the Part D final rule, effective January 1, 2006, we obtain reimbursement for drugs we provide to enrollees of a given Part D Plan in accordance with the terms of agreements negotiated between us and that Part D Plan. We have entered into such agreements with nearly all Part D Plan sponsors under which we provide drugs and associated services to their enrollees. We continue to have ongoing discussions with Part D Plans in the ordinary course and may, as appropriate, renegotiate agreements. Further, the proportion of the Company’s Part D business serviced under specific agreements may change over time. Consequently, there can be no assurance that the reimbursement terms which currently apply to the Company’s Part D business will not change. Moreover, as expected in the transition to a new program of this magnitude, certain administrative and payment issues have arisen, resulting in higher operating expenses, as well as outstanding gross accounts receivable (net of allowances for contractual adjustments, and prior to allowance for doubtful accounts) for copays and rejected claims. As of June 30, 2007, copays outstanding from Part D Plans were approximately $29 million, of which approximately $20 million relates to 2006. Additionally, as of June 30, 2007, Part D rejected claims outstanding from Part D Plans for the 2006 transitional year were approximately $21 million. Until all administrative and payment issues are fully resolved, there can be no assurance that the impact of the Part D Drug Benefit on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows will not change based on the outcome of any unforeseen future developments.

The MMA does not change the manner in which Medicare pays for drugs for Medicare beneficiaries covered under a Medicare Part A stay. We continue to receive reimbursement for drugs provided to such residents from the SNFs, in accordance with the terms of the agreements we have negotiated with each SNF. We also continue to receive reimbursement from the state Medicaid programs, albeit to a greatly reduced extent, for those Medicaid beneficiaries not eligible for the Part D program, including those under age 65, and for certain drugs specifically excluded from Medicare Part D.

CMS has issued subregulatory guidance on many aspects of the final Part D rule, including the provision of pharmaceutical services to long-term care residents. CMS has also expressed some concerns about pharmacies’ receipt of discounts, rebates and other price concessions from drug manufacturers. Specifically, in a finalized “Call Letter” for the 2007 calendar year, CMS

71

indicated that for 2007, CMS is requiring Part D sponsors to have policies and systems in place, as part of their drug utilization management programs, to protect beneficiaries and reduce costs when long-term care pharmacies are subject to incentives to move market share through access/performance rebates from drug manufacturers. For the purposes of managing and monitoring drug utilization, especially where such rebates exist, CMS instructs Part D Plan sponsors to require pharmacies to disclose to the Part D Plan sponsor any discounts, rebates and other direct or indirect remuneration designed to directly or indirectly influence or impact utilization of Part D drugs. CMS stated that Plan sponsors should provide assurances that such information will remain confidential. CMS has recently issued subregulatory guidelines specifying the information that CMS is requiring from Plan sponsors with respect to rebates paid to long-term care pharmacies. CMS has also issued draft reporting requirements for 2008 which would, among other things, require disclosure of rebates provided to long-term care pharmacies at a more detailed level. CMS has not yet issued final reporting requirements for 2008. The Company is working with Plan sponsors with respect to the format, terms and conditions under which information would be provided.

CMS has indicated it will continue to issue guidance on the Part D program as it is implemented. We are continuing to monitor issues relating to implementation of the Part D benefit, and until further agency guidance is known and until all administrative and payment issues associated with the transition to this massive program are fully resolved, there can be no assurance that the impact of the final rule or the outcome of other potential developments relating to its implementation on our business, results of operations, financial position or cash flows will not change based on the outcome of any unforeseen future developments.

The MMA also changed the Medicare payment methodology and conditions for coverage of certain items of durable medical equipment prosthetics, orthotics, and supplies (“DMEPOS”) under Medicare Part B. In 2006, approximately 1% of the Company’s revenue was derived from beneficiaries covered under Medicare Part B. The changes include a temporary freeze in annual increases in payments for durable medical equipment from 2004 through 2008, new clinical conditions for payment, quality standards (applied by CMS-approved accrediting organizations), and competitive bidding requirements. On April 10, 2007, CMS issued a final rule establishing the Medicare competitive bidding program. Enteral nutrients, equipment and supplies and oxygen equipment and supplies are among the 10 categories of DMEPOS included in the first round of the competitive bidding program for 10 geographic areas beginning July 1, 2008 (a delay from the previously-announced implementation date of April 1, 2008). Additional types of DMEPOS may be included in subsequent rounds of competitive bidding when the program is expanded in 2009. The Company has submitted bids for nine competitive bidding areas. Awards are expected to be announced in February 2008.

With respect to Medicaid, the BBA repealed the “Boren Amendment” federal payment standard for Medicaid payments to nursing facilities, giving states greater latitude in setting payment rates for such facilities. The law also granted states greater flexibility to establish Medicaid managed care programs without the need to obtain a federal waiver. Although these waiver programs generally exempt institutional care, including nursing facilities and institutional pharmacy services, some states do use managed care principles in their long-term care programs. Likewise,

72

the DRA includes several changes to the Medicaid program designed to rein in program spending. These include, among others, strengthening the Medicaid asset transfer restrictions for persons seeking to qualify for Medicaid long-term care coverage, which could, due to the timing of the penalty period, increase facilities’ exposure to uncompensated care. This provision is expected to reduce Medicaid spending by an estimated $2.4 billion over 5 years. The law also gives states greater flexibility to expand access to home and community based services by allowing states to provide these services as an optional benefit without undergoing the waiver approval process, and includes a new demonstration to encourage states to provide long-term care services in a community setting to individuals who currently receive Medicaid services in nursing homes. Together, these provisions could increase state funding for home and community based services, while prompting states to cut funding for nursing facilities. No assurances can be given that state Medicaid programs ultimately will not change the reimbursement system for long-term care or pharmacy services.

The DRA also changed the so-called federal upper limit payment rules for multiple source prescription drugs covered under Medicaid. Like the current upper limit, it only applies to drug ingredient costs and does not include dispensing fees, which will continue to be determined by the states. First, the DRA redefined a multiple source drug subject to the upper limit rules to be a covered outpatient drug that has at least one other drug product that is therapeutically equivalent. Thus, the federal upper limit is triggered when there are two or more therapeutic equivalents, instead of three or more as was previously the case. Second, effective January 1, 2007, the DRA changed the federal upper payment limit from 150 percent of the lowest published price for a drug (which is usually the average wholesale price) to 250 percent of the lowest average manufacturer price (“AMP”). Congress expected these DRA provisions to reduce the federal and state Medicaid spending by $8.4 billion over five years. On July 17, 2007, CMS issued a final rule to implement changes to the upper limit rules. Among other things, the final rule: establishes a new federal upper limit calculation for multiple source drugs that is based on 250 percent of the lowest AMP in a drug class; promotes transparency in drug pricing by requiring CMS to post AMP amounts on its web site; and establishes a uniform definition for AMP. Among other things, the final rule provides that sales of drugs to long-term care pharmacies for supply to nursing homes and assisted living facilities (as well as associated rebates and other price concessions) are not to be taken into account in determining AMP where such sales can be identified with adequate documentation, and that any AMPs which are not at least 40% of the next highest AMP will not be taken into account in determining the upper limit amount (the so-called “outlier” test). While final, CMS will accept comments on the AMP definition and outlier test portions of the rule for a period of 180 days. With the advent of Medicare Part D, our revenues from state Medicaid programs are substantially lower than has been the case previously. However, some of our agreements with Part D Plans and other payors have incorporated the Medicaid upper limit rules into the pricing mechanisms for our prescription drugs. Until the new upper limit amounts are published by CMS, we cannot predict the impact of the final rule on our business. There can be no assurance, however, that the changes under the DRA or other efforts by payors to limit reimbursement for certain drugs will not have an adverse impact on our business.

President Bush’s fiscal year 2008 budget proposal includes a series of proposals impacting Medicaid, including legislative and administrative changes that would reduce Medicaid

73

payments by almost $26 billion over five years. Among other things, the proposed budget would further reduce the federal upper limit reimbursement for multiple source drugs to 150 percent of the AMP of the lowest priced drug in the group, and allow states to use private sector formulary management techniques to leverage greater discounts through negotiations with drug manufacturers. Many of the proposed policy changes would require congressional approval to implement. While we have endeavored to adjust to these types of funding pressures in the past, there can be no assurance that these or future changes in Medicaid payments to nursing facilities, pharmacies, or managed care systems, or their potential impact on payments under agreements with Part D Plans, will not have an adverse impact on our business.

Two recent actions at the federal level could impact Medicaid payments to nursing facilities. The Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006 modified several Medicaid policies including, among other things, reducing the limit on Medicaid provider taxes from 6 percent (now in regulations) to 5.5 percent from January 1, 2008 through September 30, 2011. The Bush Administration had been expected to issue regulations calling for deeper cuts in this funding. Second, on January 18, 2007, CMS published a proposed rule designated to ensure that Medicaid payments to governmentally-operated nursing facilities and certain other health care providers are based on actual costs and that state financing arrangements are consistent with the Medicaid statute. CMS estimates that the rule, if finalized, would save $120 million during the first year and $3.87 billion over five years. On March 23, 2007, CMS published a proposed rule that would implement this legislation, and make other clarifications to the standards for determining the permissibility of provider tax arrangements.

Further, in order to rein in healthcare costs, we anticipate that federal and state governments will continue to review and assess alternate healthcare delivery systems, payment methodologies and operational requirements for healthcare providers, including long-term care facilities and pharmacies. Given the continuous debate regarding the cost of healthcare, managed care, universal healthcare coverage, and other healthcare issues, we cannot predict with any degree of certainty what additional healthcare initiatives, if any, will be implemented or the effect any future legislation or regulation will have on our business. Further, the Company receives discounts, rebates and other price concessions from pharmaceutical manufacturers pursuant to contracts for the purchase of their products. There can be no assurance that any changes in legislation or regulations, or interpretations of current law, that would eliminate or significantly reduce the discounts, rebates and other price concessions that the Company receives from manufacturers would not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s overall consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Longer term, funding for federal and state healthcare programs must consider the aging of the population and the growth in enrollees as eligibility is expanded; the escalation in drug costs owing to higher drug utilization among seniors and the introduction of new, more efficacious but also more expensive medications; the impact of the Medicare Part D benefit for seniors; and the long-term financing of the entire Medicare program. Given competing national priorities, it remains difficult to predict the outcome and impact on us of any changes in healthcare policy relating to the future funding of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Further, Medicare, Medicaid and/or private payor rates for pharmaceutical supplies and services may not continue to be based on current methodologies or remain comparable to present levels. Any future healthcare legislation or regulation may adversely affect our business.
