See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements 8 AMERICAN PHYSICIANS SERVICE GROUP, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2000 (Unaudited) 1. RESTATEMENT The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect changes in accounting for Syntera and Uncommon Care. In the previously reported consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended June 30, 1999, the Company had accounted for its ownership of Syntera on the equity method because of management's belief that majority control of Syntera was temporary based on management's initial business plan. This plan anticipated that the Company's ownership would decrease to a minority position as physician practices were acquired over a relatively short period of time. Syntera was not able to acquire the number of practices originally anticipated, accordingly Syntera has been consolidated in these restated consolidated financial statements. Syntera's business was distinct from other services offered by the Company and it had separate management that reported directly to the Company's CEO; accordingly, the results of operations of Syntera are reflected as loss from discontinued operations as Syntera was acquired by an unrelated company effective August 31, 1999. The Company's previously filed consolidated financial statements should have reflected Syntera as a discontinued operation beginning in late 1998 when management decided to dispose of the segment. In addition, in the previously reported consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 and for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, the Company had accounted for its ownership of Uncommon Care on the cost basis. The restated consolidated financial statements account for the investment in Uncommon Care on the equity method. The change from the cost to the equity method is based on management's ability to exert significant influence over the operations of Uncommon Care. A summary of the effects of these restatements on the accompanying consolidated financial statements is as follows (in thousands): June 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 ------------- ----------------- As Previously As Previously Reported As Restated Reported As Restated ------------- ----------- ------------- ----------- Assets $ 32,788 $ 28,891 $ 32,661 $ 29,835 Liabilities 11,142 10,017 11,647 10,875 Minority interest 45 64 48 48 Shareholders equity 21,601 18,810 20,966 18,912 9 Three Months Ended Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 June 30, 1999 ------------------ ------------------ As Previously As Previously Reported As Restated Reported As Restated ------------- ----------- ------------- ----------- Revenue $ 4,209 $ 4,148 $ 5,573 $ 5,467 Operating income 560 499 110 185 Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates 482 24 474 207 Earnings from continuing operations 642 299 381 359 Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations -- -- -- (229) Net earnings 642 299 381 130 Earnings per common share: Basic: Continuing operations $0.25 $0.11 $0.13 $0.12 Discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $ -- ($0.08) Net earnings $0.25 $0.11 $0.13 $0.04 Diluted: Continuing operations $0.23 $0.11 $0.13 $0.12 Discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $ -- ($0.08) Net earnings $0.23 $0.11 $0.13 $0.04 Six Months Ended Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 June 30, 1999 ------------------ ------------------ As Previously As Previously Reported As Restated Reported As Restated ------------- ----------- ------------- ----------- Revenue $ 10,766 $ 10,650 $ 9,945 $ 9,766 Operating income (loss) 889 773 (39) (38) Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates 953 28 992 394 Earnings from continuing operations 1,165 477 649 363 Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations -- -- 63 (175) Net earnings 1,165 477 712 188 Earnings per common share: Basic: Continuing operations $0.45 $0.18 $0.18 $0.10 Discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $0.02 ($0.05) Net earnings $0.45 $0.18 $0.20 $0.05 Diluted: Continuing operations $0.42 $0.17 $0.18 $0.10 Discontinued operations $ -- $ -- $0.02 ($0.05) Net earnings $0.42 $0.17 $0.20 $0.05 10 2. GENERAL The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the generally accepted accounting principles described in the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999 and reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position as of June 30, 2000 and the results of operations for the periods presented. These statements have not been audited by the Company's independent certified public accountants. The operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year. The notes to consolidated financial statements appearing in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 filed with the Securities Exchange Commission should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no significant changes in the information reported in those notes other than from normal business activities of the Company. Certain reclassifications have been made to amounts presented in prior periods to be consistent with the 2000 presentation. 3. CONTINGENCIES In conjunction with a settlement agreement, the Company's broker/dealer subsidiary, APS Financial, guaranteed the future yield of a customer's investment portfolio beginning in November 1994 for up to a five and one-half year period ending in May, 2000. On April 28, 2000 the Company liquidated the holdings in the customer's investment portfolio and tendered payment to the customer. Reflected in the earnings for the first six months of 2000 is a charge to income totaling $192,000 which represents the shortfall in the portfolio after liquidation. In connection with the development of Syntera HealthCare Corporation, the Company entered into Share Exchange Agreements ("Agreements") with the physician shareholders of Syntera. The Agreements provide that the Syntera shareholders may, at their option, exchange their shares for a fixed dollar amount of the Company's common stock in the event that the Syntera shares are not publicly traded by certain dates. The Company has the option of purchasing any or all of the shares at the weighted average dollar amount of $5.26 per share rather than exchanging its common stock. As a result of Syntera's merger with FemPartners, Inc. in 1999, the Syntera shares were converted to FemPartners shares, with such shares retaining all of the conversion features. These shares began to become eligible to exchange in the first quarter of 2000 and continue to become eligible into the first quarter of 2002. Should all eligible FemPartners shares (248,000) be presented for exchange and the Company elected to purchase the shares for cash, the amount would be approximately $3,900,000. During the second quarter of 2000, four doctors have notified the Company that they will exercise options to convert 94,000 shares of FemPartners common stock at a cost to the Company of approximately $1,600,000. 11 4. EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES At September 30, 2000 the Company owned 14.8% (2,344,000 shares) of the outstanding common stock of Prime Medical Services, Inc. ("Prime"). The Company records its pro-rata share of Prime's results on the equity method, as the Company continues to exercise significant influence over Prime's operating and financial policies, primarily through the Board of Directors and senior officers. Two of Prime Medical's seven member board are also members of American Physicians' board. Mr. Shifrin is CEO of American Physicians and chairman of the board of both companies. Mr. Hummel is a director of American Physicians and is CEO and President of Prime Medical. Mr. Searles is a director of both companies. American Physicians continues to be Prime's largest shareholder. According to information in Prime's most recent Proxy statement, American Physicians and its two directors who are also Prime directors have 18.5% beneficial ownership in Prime. Prime is primarily in the business of providing lithotripsy and refractive vision surgery services. The common stock of Prime is traded in the over-the-counter market under the symbol "PMSI". Prime is a Delaware corporation which is required to file annual, quarterly and other reports and documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which reports and documents contain financial and other information regarding Prime. Such reports and documents may be examined and copies may be obtained from the offices of the Securities and Exchange Commission. At June 30, 2000 the Company owned preferred shares of Uncommon Care, a developer and operator of dedicated Alzheimer's care facilities. The preferred shares owned by the Company are convertible into approximately a 34% common stock interest in the equity of Uncommon Care on a fully converted basis. The Company's investment entitles it to vote in certain instances and to elect two of the five members of the board of directors of Uncommon Care. In addition, pursuant to a shareholders agreement between Uncommon Care and its shareholders, one of the directors elected by the holders of the preferred stock must consent to Uncommon Care's taking certain important corporate actions specified in the shareholders agreement. As a result, APSG accounts for this investment on the equity method. The Company has applied the guidance of EITF 99-10, specifically the percentage of ownership method, in applying the equity method to its investment in Uncommon Care. Uncommon Care's common stock equity had been reduced to zero prior to the Company's investment and, accordingly, the Company has recognized 100% of the losses of Uncommon Care based on its ownership of 100% of Uncommon Care's preferred stock equity. At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company's consolidated retained earnings included losses of Uncommon Care totaling $2,314,000 and $1,041,000 respectively. 5. ACCRUED EXPENSES AND OTHER LIABILITIES Accrued expenses and other liabilities consists of the following: June 30 December 31 2000 1999 ---- ---- Taxes payable $ 116,000 $ 160,000 Deferred income (Note 7) 780,000 528,000 Contractual/legal claims 369,000 1,409,000 Vacation payable 118,000 116,000 Funds held for others 15,000 402,000 APS Systems disposition costs discontinued operations) 10,000 10,000 Other 111,000 298,000 --------- -------- $1,519,000 $2,923,000 ========= ========= 12 6. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average shares outstanding without any dilutive effects considered. Diluted earnings per share reflect dilution from all contingently issuable shares under exchangeable share agreements and employee stock option agreements. A reconciliation of income and average shares outstanding used in the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations follows: For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 ------------------------------------------- Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount --------- ----------- ------- Earnings from continuing operations $ 299,000 Basic EPS Earnings available to common stockholders 299,000 2,611,000 $0.11 Effect of Dilutive Securities -- 134,000 -------- --------- Diluted EPS Earnings available to common stockholders and assumed conversions $ 299,000 2,745,000 $0.11 ========= ========= ==== For the Three Months Ended June 30, 1999 ----------------------------------------- Income Shares Per Share (Numerator) (Denominator) Amount ---------- ----------- ------- Earnings from continuing operations $ 359,000 Basic EPS Earnings available to 359,000 2,952,000 $ 0.12 common stockholders Effect of dilutive securities 10,000 -------- Diluted EPS Earnings available to common stockholders and assumed conversions $ 359,000 2,962,000 $ 0.12 ======= ========= ==== 13 7.

EARNINGS PER SHARE, continued Unexercised employee stock options to purchase 649,900 and 985,500 shares of the Company's common stock as of June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were not included in the computations of diluted EPS because the effect would be antidilutive. 7. DEFERRED INCOME The Company collects commissions on certain medical malpractice insurance policies. Such commissions are collected in advance. Income is earned ratably on the policy over the course of the life of the policy, typically twelve months. Commissions which are not yet earned are recorded as deferred income on the balance sheet. 8. SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company's segments are distinct by type of service provided.

Forward-looking statements may appear in this document or other documents, reports, press releases, and written or oral presentations made by officers of the Company to shareholders, analysts, news organizations or others. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based on information available to the Company and the declarant at the time the forward-looking statement is made, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. It is important to note that the Company's actual results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements. In addition to any risks and uncertainties specifically identified in connection with such forward-looking statements, the reader should consult the Company's reports on previous Forms 10-Q and other filings under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, for factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based on various assumptions and estimates and are inherently subject to various risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties relating to the possible invalidity of the underlying assumptions and estimates and possible changes or developments in social, economic, business, industry, market, legal and regulatory circumstances and conditions and actions taken or omitted to be taken by third parties, including customers, suppliers, business partners and competitors and legislative, judicial and other governmental authorities and officials. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgements with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Any such assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that any forward-looking statements by the Company or its officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives or employees, including those forward-looking statements contained in this Report on Form 10-Q, will prove to be accurate. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS REVENUES Revenues from operations decreased $1,319,000 (24%) for the three month period but increased $884,000 (9%) for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999. For the current year three month and six month periods revenues increased at the 17 insurance services, consulting and real estate segments while the investment services and corporate segments revenues decreased when compared to the same periods in 1999. Financial services revenues decreased $1,465,000 (53.2%) and $56,000 (1.0%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The decrease in the second quarter of 2000 was due to lower commission income at APS Financial Corp., a broker/dealer division of APS Investment Services, Inc. The April, 2000 general market sell-off of high-tech and e-commerce equity securities had an adverse effect on the bond market as well. This, coupled with interest rate tightening by the Federal Reserve Board, resulted in investor uncertainty leading to a reduction of activity in the bond market. Insurance services revenues from premium-based insurance management fees increased $226,000 (24.7%) and $307,000 (14.6%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The increase in both periods of the current year was due to an increase in commissions earned on a higher volume of new business. Partially offsetting the revenue increase was lower commissions earned on renewal business. Renewal business declined as a result of raising premiums to reduce the effective underwriting loss ratio. Although the premium increase will result in fewer renewals and lower revenues, the profitability per renewed policy is expected to be greater. Consulting revenue increased $661,000 and $1,316,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. Since the Company did not begin consolidating the financial results of APS Consulting until the third quarter of 1999, no revenues were recorded during the first six months of 1999. Real estate revenues increased $814,000 (490.4%) and $837,000 (235.1%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The current year three month increase is primarily the result of gains on the sales of office space formerly leased to the Company's outside tenants. The sales amounted to a total of approximately 8,000 square feet of the 53,000 total square feet owned by the Company and resulted in gains of approximately $770,000. Revenues in the six month period ending June 30, 2000 were also higher due to an increase in rent charged to the Company's tenants. As of June 30, 2000 the occupancy rate of the building space owned by the Company was 100%. With the continued strength of the Austin real estate market, rent revenues should be robust for the foreseeable future. Investment and other income decreased $1,555,000 (95.3%) and $1,520,000 (92.9%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. During the second quarter of 1999 the Company recorded gains totaling $1,635,000 from the exchanges of Prime Medical Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:PMSI) common stock for American Physicians Service Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMPH) common stock. No such gains were recorded in 2000. 18 EXPENSES Total operating expenses decreased $1,633,000 (31%) and increased $73,000 (1.0%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. For the current year three month period, expenses at the investment services, real estate and corporate segments decreased while expenses at the insurance services and consulting segments increased compared to the same three months in 1999. For the current year six month period, expenses at the insurance services, real estate and corporate segments decreased while those at the investment services and consulting segments increased compared to the same six months in 1999. Financial services expense decreased $1,064,000 (44.1%) but increased $89,000 (1.8%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The primary reason for the current year three month decrease is lower commission expense resulting from a decrease in commission revenue at APS Financial, the broker/dealer division of APS Investment Services, Inc. The opposite was true in the 1st quarter of 2000 where commission revenues, and subsequently commission expenses, were up substantially over the 1st quarter of 1999. This accounts for the small six month increase in expenses in the current year compared to 1999. Insurance services expenses at the insurance management subsidiary increased $69,000 (7.0%) but decreased $2,000 (0.1%) for the three and six month periods June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The current period three month increase is due primarily to higher personnel costs resulting from annual merit increases and higher advertising expenses within the business development department. Consulting expense increased $620,000 and $1,209,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. Since the Company did not begin consolidating the financial results of APS Consulting until the third quarter of 1999, no expenses were recorded during the first six months of 1999. Real estate expenses decreased $3,000 (2.3%) and $5,000 (1.9%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The cause for the decline in expenses in both the three and six month periods of 2000 was primarily due to lower depreciation resulting from some assets becoming fully depreciated since the first six months of 1999. In addition, the sale of office space mentioned above lowered depreciation, taxes and building maintenance fees. General and administrative expense decreased $1,264,000 (76%) and $1,283,000 (61%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The 2nd quarter of 1999 contained charges to bad bebt resulting from a write-down of a note receivable ($996,000) as well as a separate charge to bad debt ($343,000) pertaining to receivables from Syntera HealthCare, Inc. (now FemPartners, Inc.). No such bad debt write-offs occurred in 2000. 19 Interest expense increased $21,000 (38%) and $65,000 (72.2%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. The primary cause of the current year rise is additional draws taken by the Company on its line of credit increasing the balance due the bank by $1,100,000. EQUITY IN EARNINGS/(LOSS) OF UNCONSOLIDATED AFFILIATES The Company's equity in earnings of Prime Medical Services, Inc. ("Prime") decreased $127,000 (20.1%) and $215,000 (18.4%) for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1999. Although net income before non-recurring items was up at Prime for both periods in 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999, Prime recorded $1.1 million of non-recurring income in 1999 which caused net earnings after non-recurring items to be lower in 2000. In addition, the Company holds a smaller percentage ownership in Prime resulting from the common stock exchanges to acquire treasury shares that occurred in the second quarter of 1999. As a result of these exchanges, the Company's percentage ownership of Prime dropped from an average of 15.9% during the first six months of 1999 to an average of 14.4% during the first six months of 2000. During the first six months of 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded losses from its equity investment in Uncommon Care of $(925,000) and $(774,000), respectively. These losses were expected during Uncommon Care's early growth stage. The expenses incurred to develop new facilities and to bring them to full occupancy exceed profits from the limited early operations and will continue to do so until the operations are sufficiently large to cover the development expenses, or until a slowdown in development of new facilities. Uncommon Care continues to develop new projects and plans to do so through the end of 2000. MINORITY INTEREST Minority interest represents the combination of two outside interests in subsidiaries of the Company: a twenty percent interest of Insurance Services owned by Florida Physicians Insurance Group, Inc., an A- (Excellent) rated insurance company as rated by AM Best; and a five percent interest of APS Asset Management, a division of the financial services subsidiary of the Company (APS Investment Services), owned by key individuals within APS Asset Management. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Current assets exceeded current liabilities by $2,738,000 and $1,036,000 at June 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, respectively. The primary cause of the rise in working capital is cash received from the sale of office space formerly leased by the Company's outside tenants. Capital expenditures through the three month period ended June 30, 2000 were approximately $40,000. Total capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $125,000 in 2000. 20 Historically, the Company has maintained a positive working capital position and, has been able to satisfy its operational and capital expenditure requirements with cash generated from its operating and investing activities. These same sources of funds have also allowed the Company to pursue investment and expansion opportunities consistent with its growth plans. To further its ability to meet its liquidity requirements and to accelerate its growth, the Company established a $7,500,000 revolving line of credit with Bank of America. Funds advanced under the agreement bear interest at the prime rate less 1/4%. The Company will pledge shares of Prime Medical to the bank as funds are advanced under the line. A balance of $4,400,000 was owed under this credit line as of June 30, 2000. The Company believes that its positive working capital position together with its ability to draw upon its line of credit will provide sufficient working capital for its foreseeable future needs. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities as amended by SFAS No. 138, Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities, in June 2000. The Company is required to implement these standards effective with our 2001 fiscal year (after deferral by SFAS No. 137). SFAS No. 133 and 138 address the accounting for derivative instruments, including certain instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. Under these statements, the Company will be required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities and measure those at fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as a hedge, an unrecognized firm commitment, an available-for-sale security, or a foreign-currency-dominated forecasted transaction. The Company does not believe that these statements will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No.44, Accounting for Certain Transactions involving Stock Compensation. FIN No. 44 clarifies the application of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. This interpretation is effective July 1, 2000. We do not believe that this interpretation will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations. 21 PART II OTHER INFORMATION 22 Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the liability provision in its financial statements is sufficient to cover any unfavorable outcome related to lawsuits in which it is currently named. Management believes that liabilities, if any, arising from these actions will not have a significant adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. However, due to the uncertain nature of legal proceedings, the actual outcome of these lawsuits may differ from the liability provision recorded in the Company's financial statements. Item 4.
