NOTE 6: FACILITY ACQUISITIONS During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company entered into a series of transactions with Winter Haven, Gordon Jensen Health Care Association, Inc. ("Gordon Jensen"), National Assistance Bureau, Inc. ("NAB"), Southeastern Cottages, Inc. ("Southeastern"), Chamber Health Care Society, Inc. ("Chamber"), and Senior Care, Inc. ("Senior"); all are entities which principal shareholders of the Company either own or control. The result of the transactions was to eliminate all notes receivable and advances due to the Company from affiliates. The following is a summary of the transactions: -11- 12 RETIREMENT CARE ASSOCIATES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 6: FACILITY ACQUISITION (Continued) On September 30, 1996, Winter Haven sold to the Company two retirement facilities for their fair value, based on independent appraisal, totaling $19,200,000. The facilities were acquired by the Company subject to bond debt of $7,670,000, resulting in debt due to Winter Haven from the Company of $11,530,000. As part of the sales agreement, the Company and Winter Haven agreed that the debt of $11,530,000 would be applied to eliminate the receivable, totaling $11,214,320, due to the Company by Winter Haven. On September 27, 1996, Gordon Jensen contributed to the treasury of the Company 400,000 shares of stock in the Company which had a fair market value of $3,000,000. This transaction results in the elimination of the debt, totaling $2,982,000, due to the Company by Gordon Jensen and a reduction of stockholders' equity of the Company by $3,000,000. NOTE 7: OTHER TRANSACTIONS On August 6, 1996, Contour acquired all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic Medical Supply Company, Inc. ("Atlantic Medical"), a distributor of disposable medical supplies and a provider of third-party billing services to the nursing home and home health care markets. The acquisition was made retroactively to July 1, 1996. Contour paid $1.4 million in cash and $10.5 million in promissory notes for all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic Medical. The promissory notes bear interest at 7% per annum and were due in full on January 10, 1997. In the event of a default in the payment of the promissory notes, they were convertible into shares of common stock of RCA. On January 10, 1997, Contour retired all outstanding notes due to sellers of Atlantic Medical in the aggregate principal amount of $10,850,000, along with accrued interest. The retirement of these notes was funded by a loan of $9,750,000 from the Company, with the balance funded from Contour's existing line of credit with Barnett Bank. The loan from the Company was evidenced by a convertible promissory note bearing interest at 9% per annum and payable upon demand. This note was convertible into 1,950,000 shares of Contour's Common Stock, and on January 10, 1997, the Company exercised this conversion right. -12- 13 RETIREMENT CARE ASSOCIATES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 7: OTHER TRANSACTIONS (Continued) During the period from September 27 through October 2, 1996, the Company sold 1,000,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock in an offering to foreign investors at $10.00 per share. Holders of the Series F Preferred Stock have no voting rights except as required by law, and have liquidation preference of $10.00 per share plus 4% per annum from the date of issuance. The shares of Series F Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of the lessor of (a) $7.665625, or (b) 85% of the average closing bid price for the five trading days prior to the date of conversion. The maximum number of shares of common stock which can be issued upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock is 2,588,000. At the time of conversion, the holder is also entitled to additional shares equal to $10.00 per share of Series F Preferred Stock converted multiplied by 8% per annum from the date of issuance divided by the applicable conversion price. Each holder of the Series F Preferred Stock has the option to convert up to one-third of such holder's shares at any time from and after the 60th day following the date of issuance, up to an additional one-third of the shares from and after the 90th day following the date of issuance, and all remaining shares may be converted from and after the 120th day following the date of issuance. For purposes of computing earnings per share, the Series F Preferred Stock has been determined to be a common stock equivalent. Accordingly, weighted average shares outstanding includes the common shares issuable upon conversion of these shares after consideration of accumulated dividends. ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 The Company's total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1997, were $65,663,626 compared to $35,622,413 for the three months ended March 31, 1996. Due to the increased number of facilities owned or leased by the Company, patient service revenue increased from $32,004,561 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, to $53,044,270 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. The Company was operating 86 facilities for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to 54 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. The cost of patient services in the amount of $18,814,605 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, represented 59% of patient service revenue, as compared to $35,357,497 or 67% of patient service revenue during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. This increase is attributed to the Company acquiring skilled nursing facilities which require more skilled care and to delays in Medicaid rate increases discussed in the comparison of the nine month periods ended March 31 below. Medical supply revenue increased from $2,100,600 during the quarter ended March 31, 1996, to $11,736,583 during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. These revenues, which are revenues of Contour Medical, Inc. ("Contour"), a majority-owned subsidiary, increased primarily as a result of two acquisitions made by Contour. Contour acquired AmeriDyne Corporation ("AmeriDyne") effective March 1, 1997, and Atlantic Medical Supply Company, Inc. ("Atlantic") effective July 1, 1996. Cost of medical supplies sold as a percentage of medical supply revenue decreased to approximately 66.5% during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as compared to approximately 100% of such revenue during the same period last year. The reduced percentage is primarily a result of higher gross profit margins on the products sold by AmeriDyne and Atlantic. -13- 14 Management fees decreased from $1,030,882 in the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to $632,580 in the quarter ended March 31, 1997, due to the number of facilities which the Company manages. As of March 31, 1996, the Company was managing 24 facilities, and as of March 31, 1997, the Company was managing 11 facilities. The Company has leased or purchased 13 facilities it managed at March 31, 1996. Management anticipates that the number of facilities only managed by the company will continue to decline as a result of acquisition of such facilities by the Company. Owning or leasing a facility is distinctly different from managing a facility with respect to operating results and cash flows. For an owned or leased facility, the entire revenue/expense stream of the facility is recorded on the Company's income statement. In the case of a management agreement, only the management fee is recorded. The expenses associated with management revenue are somewhat indirect as the infrastructure is already in place to manage the facility. Therefore, the profitability of managing a facility appears more lucrative on a margin basis than that of an owned/leased facility. However, the risk of managing a facility is that the contract generally can be canceled on a relatively short notice, which results in loss of all revenue attributable to the contract. Furthermore, with an owned or leased property the Company benefits from the increase in value of the facility as its performance increases. With a management contract, the owner of the facility maintains the equity value. From a cash flow standpoint, a management contract is more lucrative because the Company does not have to support the ongoing operating cash flow of the facility. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were $10,619,461 representing 17% of total revenues, as compared to $6,848,798 representing 19% of total revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 1996. This increase in the dollar amount is due to the general and administrative expenses related to operating the additional facilities owned or leased by the Company and the acquisition by Contour of Atlantic Medical and AmeriDyne. For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company incurred expense for income taxes of $1,189,756 which represents an effective tax rate of 38%, as compared to expenses for income taxes of $1,106,272 which represents an effective tax rate of 39% for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. The net income of $1,962,272 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, is higher than the net income of $1,736,580 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. The net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, is a result of additional facilities the Company operates. Most of the revenue from the management services division of the Company's business is received pursuant to management agreements with entities controlled by Messrs. Brogdon and Lane, two of the Company's officers and directors. These management agreements have five year terms, however, they are subject to termination on 60 days notice, after the end of the third year of the Agreement with or without cause by either the Company or the owners. Therefore, Messrs. Brogdon and Lane have full control over whether or not these management agreements, and thus the management service revenue, continue in the future. NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1996 The Company's total revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, were $182,190,526 compared to $95,492,767 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. -14- 15 Due to the increased number of facilities owned or leased by the Company, patient service revenue increased from $86,182,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996, to $142,979,301 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. The Company was operating 86 facilities in the nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to 54 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.

This increase is attributed to the Company acquiring skilled nursing facilities which require more skilled care and to delays in Medicaid rate increases discussed below. Medical supply revenues increased from $5,294,915 during the quarter ended March 31, 1996, to $34,592,701 during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. These revenues, which are revenues of Contour, a majority-owned subsidiary, increased primarily as a result of two acquisitions made by Contour. Contour acquired AmeriDyne Corporation ("AmeriDyne") effective March 1, 1996, and Atlantic Medical effective July 1, 1996. Cost of medical supplies sold as a percentage of medical supply revenue decreased to approximately 66.5% during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, as compared to approximately 100% of such revenue during the same period last year. The reduced percentage is primarily a result of higher gross profit margins on the products sold by AmeriDyne and Atlantic Medical.

General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 were $31,765,530 representing 18% of total revenues, as compared to $15,619,316 representing 16% of total revenues, for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. This increase is due to the general and administrative expenses related to operating the additional facilities owned or leased by the Company, and the acquisition by Contour of Atlantic Medical. For the nine months ended March 31, 1997, the Company incurred expenses for income taxes of $2,800,000 which represents an effective tax rate of 38%, as compared to expenses for income taxes of $3,854,135 which represents an effective rate of 39% for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The net income of $3,746,932 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, is less than the net income of $6,115,311 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The decrease in net income for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, is a result of (1) an extraordinary charge relating to a restructuring of debt, and (2) the and the result of delays in annual Medicaid rate increases, which are usually in effect on July 1 of each year. This year the rate increases in Georgia were delayed until August 16, 1996, and the rate increases in Tennessee were delayed until November 1, 1996. Most of the long-term care facilities operated by the Company are located in these two states. Most of the revenue from the management services division of the Company's business is received pursuant to management agreements with entities controlled by Messrs. Brogdon and Lane, two of the Company's officers and directors. These management agreements have five year terms, however, they are all subject to termination on 60 days notice, with or without cause by either the Company or the owners. Therefore, Messrs. Brogdon and Lane have full control over whether or not these management agreements, and thus the management services revenue, continue in the future. -15- 16 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At March 31. 1997, the Company had $8,169,095 in working capital compared to $4,573,744 at June 30, 1996.

IMPACT OF PENDING FEDERAL HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION Management is uncertain what the financial impact will be of the pending federal health care reform package since the legislation has not been finalized. However, based on information which has been released to the public thus far, management does not believe that there will be cuts in reimbursements paid to nursing homes. Legislative and regulatory action at the state and federal level, has resulted in continuing changes in the Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement programs. The changes have limited payment increases under those programs. Also, the timing of payments made under Medicare and Medicaid programs are subject to regulatory action and governmental budgetary constraints. Within the statutory framework of the Medicare and Medicaid programs, there are substantial areas subject to administrative rulings and interpretations which may further affect payments made under these programs. Further, the federal and state governments may reduce the funds available under those programs in the future or require more stringent utilization and quality review of health care facilities. -16- 17 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this Report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
