EXPLANATORY NOTE

On February 14, 2007, Rural/Metro Corporation (“Company”) filed its Current Report on Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in which it announced that it was restating previously reported financial statements to correct certain accounting practice errors relating to its inventory. As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has determined that certain durable medical supply items should not be classified as inventory.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006 and as more fully described in Note 1 of the financial statements, the Company changed its accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients. This change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“SFAS”) Statement 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections” (“SFAS 154”). The Company now reflects revenue net of estimated uncompensated care, and this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) reflects such change. Previously, the Company recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense. This Amendment amends the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter end March 31, 2006, as filed on May 10, 2006 (“Original Filing”). The change in accounting policy retrospectively applied to the financial statements did not change the previously reported operating income, net income, earnings per share, and operating cash flows. See Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements for the amended results relating to the change in accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients and the restated results relating from the correction of certain accounting practice errors relating to inventory.

Except as required to reflect the effects of the items described above, no additional modifications or updates in this Amendment have been made to the Original Filing on Form 10-Q. Information not relating to the restatement remains unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the Original Filing. This amendment does not describe other events occurring after the original filing, including exhibits, or modify or update those disclosure affected by subsequent events, other than the events surrounding the Company’s notes and its 2005 Credit Facility, which are discussed below. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Company’s filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing, as information in such reports and documents may update or supersede certain information contained in this Amendment. Accordingly, this Amendment only amends and restates Items 1, 2 and 4 of Part I of the Original Filing, in each case, solely as a result of, and to reflect, the restatement, and no other information in the Original Filing is amended hereby. Additionally, pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Item 6 of Part II of the Original Filing has been amended to contain currently dated certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. As required by Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are attached to this Amendment as Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2.

Due to the restatement of the financial statements, the Company did not timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, the Company received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an “event of default” under the Company’s 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver of any defaults, including the event of default described above, under its 2005 Credit Facility. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23, 2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC, which the Company anticipates will occur on or about the same day that this Amendment is filed. Any or all forward-looking statements relating to the default made in this Form 10-Q/A (and in any other public filings or statements we might make) may turn out to be wrong. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. By their nature, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or quantify. Accordingly, except to the extent required by applicable law, we undertake no duty to update the forward-looking statements made in this Report on Form 10-Q/A.

2

The Company has re-evaluated its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2006, and concluded that because of the inventory restatement the Company had a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting. See Item 4 of Part II for further discussion and remediation measures that the Company is taking.

In addition to this Amendment, the Company is amending its Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 30, 2006 and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended September 30, 2006, each of which will contain restated financial information. The Company will also file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006.

RURAL/METRO CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Rural/Metro Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) is a leading provider of both emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services. These medical transportation services are provided under contracts with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities and organizations. The Company also provides fire protection and related services on a subscription fee basis to residential and commercial property owners and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial sites and airports. These services consist primarily of fire suppression, fire prevention and first responder medical care.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated financial position and results of operations. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year.

These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 14, 2005. Certain financial information for prior periods has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

(1) Revenue – Accounting Change

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company changed its accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients, defined as “uncompensated care.” This change in accounting policy was applied retrospectively in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“SFAS”) Statement No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” The Company now presents revenue net of an estimate for uncompensated care within the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Previously, the Company recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense, as is generally accepted practice under the AICPA Guide, Accounting for Health Care Organizations (Guide). The Company believes that the new method of accounting is preferable given recent industry practice and the direction of deliberations relating to proposed revisions to the Guide related to revenue recognition for self-pay patients, and its consistency with the criteria for revenue recognition pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. The retrospective application of this accounting change decreased net revenue and other operating expenses by $25.4 million and $72.1 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively and $20.5 million and $59.4 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. The change in accounting policy, retrospectively applied to the financial statements for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 did not change the previously reported income from continuing operations or net income. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the change in accounting policy.

(2) Inventory Restatement - Correction

In connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, management determined that inventory had been historically overstated by the improper inclusion of certain durable medical supply items that should have been expensed as incurred. All previously issued financial statements contained in the Original Filing have been restated for the impact of expensing these items and resulted in a reduction in net earnings of $105,000 and $16,000 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively and $0 and $11,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. The cumulative effect of this error on net income for all periods preceding fiscal 2006 was an increase in the accumulated deficit as of July 1, 2005 of $2.8 million. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the adjustment to inventory.

The effects of the adjustment for inventory on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2006 and at March 31, 2006, respectively are as follows:

(3) Liquidity

The Company’s ability to service its long-term debt, to remain in compliance with the various restrictions and covenants contained in its debt agreements and to fund working capital, capital expenditures and business development efforts will depend on its ability to generate cash from operating activities which in turn is subject to, among other things, future operating performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond its control.

If the Company fails to generate sufficient cash flow from operating activities, it may need to borrow additional funds or issue additional debt or equity securities to achieve its longer-term business objectives. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to borrow such funds or issue such debt or equity securities or, if it can, that it can do so at rates or prices acceptable to the Company. Management believes that cash flow from operating activities coupled with existing cash balances and amounts available under the Company’s $20.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and $45.0 million Letter of Credit Facility will be adequate to fund the Company’s operating and capital needs as well as enable it to maintain compliance with its various debt agreements through March 31, 2007. To the extent that actual results or events differ from the Company’s financial projections or business plans, its liquidity may be adversely impacted. See Explanatory Note to this Amendment. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

(4) Accounting for Stock Based Compensation

At March 31, 2006, the Company had two stock compensation plans, the Amended and Restated 1992 Stock Option Plan (the “1992 Plan”) and the 2000 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “2000 Plan”). The 1992 Plan expired November 5, 2002 and therefore the Company is no longer issuing options under that plan. The 1992 Plan was the only plan under which the Company could provide stock compensation to its executive officers and Board of Directors. The 2000 Plan had 477,330 common shares available for issuance at March 31, 2006.

11

On July 1, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“SFAS”) Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) using the modified prospective method. Accordingly, results for prior periods have not been restated. The Company recognized approximately $7,000 and $23,000 of stock based compensation expense in the statement of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively. At March 31, 2006, there was unrecognized stock based compensation expense totaling $11,000 related to unvested awards which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 11 months. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and amortized to expense over the vesting period of the award. There were no stock options granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

Prior to July 1, 2005, the Company accounted for its plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and related interpretations. Consistent with APB 25, stock-based compensation expense was not reflected in the consolidated statement of operations for periods prior to July 1, 2005 as all options granted under the Company’s plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates the pro forma effect on net income and income per share for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2005 (As restated)			Nine Months Ended March 31, 2005 (As restated)

(5) General Liability and Workers’ Compensation Programs

General Liability

The Company has historically maintained insurance policies for comprehensive general liability, automobile liability and professional liability (referred to collectively as “general liability”). These policies are typically renewed annually. Management periodically reviews its general liability claim reserves and engages independent actuaries to assist with the assessment of reserve adequacy. The Company adjusts its claim reserves with an associated charge or credit to expense as new information on the underlying claims is obtained.

The Company engaged independent actuaries to perform an updated valuation of its general liability claim reserves as of December 31, 2005. Based on this analysis, the Company increased its general liability claim reserves by $0.2 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 and the related expense is reflected in other operating expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

Workers’ Compensation

The Company has historically maintained insurance policies for workers’ compensation and employer’s liability. The Company is required by law and by most of its operational contracts to maintain minimum statutory limits of workers’ compensation insurance. These policies are typically renewed annually. Management periodically reviews the Company’s workers’ compensation claim reserves and engages independent actuaries to assist with the assessment of reserve adequacy. The Company adjusts its claim reserves with an associated charge or credit to expense as new information on the underlying claims is obtained.

The Company engaged its independent actuaries to perform updated valuations of its related claim reserves as a result of the resolution of certain workers’ compensation claims during the six month periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Based on these analyses, the Company reduced its workers compensation claim reserves by $1.5 million and $0.6 million during the second quarters of fiscal 2006 and 2005, respectively. The related adjustments are reflected as a reduction of payroll and employee benefits.

12

Additionally, the Company recognized estimated premium refunds and reserve adjustments totaling $1.1 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as a reduction of payroll and employee benefits based upon an updated loss assessment prepared by its independent actuaries. Of this amount, $0.8 million pertained to policy years ended April 30, 2004 and 2003 and was reflected as an increase in other assets. The remaining $0.3 million pertained to the policy year ended April 30, 2005 and was reflected as a reduction to the Company’s workers’ compensation claim reserves. The Company has recorded loss reserves for claims expected to be incurred during this policy period as the risk of loss was not effectively transferred to the insurer.

In March 2006, the Company received $1.2 million of cash collateral from Reliance Insurance Company. This amount represented the remaining balance of the Company’s worker’s compensation cash insurance deposits held by this carrier.

(6) Long-term Debt

The following is a summary of the Company’s outstanding long-term debt (in thousands):

	March 31, 2006			June 30, 2005
Senior Secured Term Loan B due March 2011	$	112,000		$	128,000
9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015		125,000			125,000
12.75% Senior Discount Notes due March 2016		57,352			52,275
Revolving Credit Facility, undrawn		—			—
Capital lease and other obligations, at varying rates from 6.0% to 12.75%, due through 2013		559			1,700
Long-term debt		294,911			306,975
Less: Current maturities		(383	)		(1,497	)
Long-term debt, net of current maturities	$	294,528		$	305,478

The Senior Secured Term Loan B due March 2011 (the “Term Loan B”) bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% per annum based on contractual periods from one to nine months in length at the Company’s option. At March 31, 2006, $100.0 million of the outstanding Term Loan B balance was accruing interest at 7.10% per annum, and $12.0 million was accruing interest at 7.18% based on the interest rate contracts in effect at that time. At June 30, 2005, $123.0 million of the outstanding Term Loan B balance was accruing interest at 6.04% per annum, and the remaining $5.0 million outstanding debt balance was accruing interest at 5.84% based on the interest rate contracts in effect at that time.

The Company originally capitalized $13.3 million of expenses associated with obtaining its outstanding debt and is amortizing these costs to interest expense over the terms of the respective agreements. Unamortized deferred financing costs were $11.3 million at March 31, 2006 and are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.

On February 7, 2006, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro Operating Company, LLC (“Rural/Metro LLC”), made a $9.0 million unscheduled principal payment on its Term Loan B. The Company wrote-off approximately $0.3 million of deferred financing costs during the third quarter of fiscal 2006 as a result of this payment. Inception-to-date unscheduled principal payments totaling $23.0 million have been applied towards Rural/Metro LLC’s fiscal 2006 annual principal payment requirement equal to 75% of the fiscal year Excess Cash Flow, as defined in the 2005 Credit Facility, payable in September 2006. From time to time, Rural/Metro LLC may make additional unscheduled payments at its discretion.

At March 31, 2006, letters of credit totaling $31.1 million were utilized, primarily in support of insurance deductible arrangements. At March 31, 2006, the Company had $15.1 million available under its 2005 Credit Facility, including $10.0 million available under its Revolving Credit Facility letter of credit sub-line.

The Company was in compliance with the covenants under the 2005 Credit Facility at March 31, 2006. Due to the restatement of the financial statements, the Company did not timely file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, the Company received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an “event of default” under the 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver under the 2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23, 2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC. See Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.

13

Credit Facility Amendment

On December 27, 2005, the Company amended certain terms, conditions and covenants contained in its 2005 Credit Facility (“Amendment No. 2”). Specifically, Amendment No. 2 permits the Company to use net proceeds from the issuance of qualified equity to repurchase its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due March 2016 (the “Senior Discount Notes”) issued by Rural/Metro Corporation and/or its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”) issued by Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (collectively referred to as the “Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers”), and further allows the Company to use up to $10.0 million of cash on hand to purchase any remaining Senior Discount Notes in their entirety. Following any redemption of the Senior Discount Notes, the Company’s total leverage ratio may not exceed 4.0 to 1.0.

In addition, Amendment No. 2 modified the existing covenant regarding permitted acquisitions by increasing the aggregate limit for acquisitions to $40.0 million and the individual limit for permitted acquisitions to $10.0 million, subject to an exception to allow the Company flexibility to exercise an existing option to acquire a medical transportation services entity in Las Vegas, Nevada within the next two years. The purchase option first becomes exercisable in 2006 for a one-year period at a purchase price that is the greater of $12.0 million or 6.9 times the Las Vegas, Nevada entity’s EBITDA for the 12-month period preceding the purchase date.

Amendment No. 2 also modified certain other 2005 Credit Facility covenants including an increase in the permitted level of annual capital expenditures.

Condensed Consolidating Financial Information

The Company’s Senior Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by Rural/Metro Corporation (which is referred to singularly as Parent within the schedules presented in this Note 6) and substantially all of the current and future subsidiaries of Rural/Metro LLC, excluding Rural/Metro Inc. (the “Senior Subordinated Note Guarantors”).

The Company does not believe that the separate financial statements and related footnote disclosures concerning the Senior Subordinated Notes Guarantors would provide any additional information that would be material to investors making an investment decision. Condensed consolidating financial information for the Parent, the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers, the Senior Secured Note Guarantors and the Company’s remaining subsidiary (the “Non-Guarantor”) is presented in the following tables. The Non-Guarantor consists of the Company’s joint venture with the City of San Diego, San Diego Medical Services Enterprise, LLC, which is consolidated in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51”. Certain information presented has been restated from that originally reported to reflect the effect of the change in accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients and the restated results relating from the correction of certain accounting practice errors relating to inventory discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, respectively.

The formation of the Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers became effective as of the consummation of the financing transactions that were completed on March 4, 2005. Therefore, the condensed consolidating statement of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 and the condensed consolidating statement of cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 consist solely of Rural/ Metro Corporation, the Senior Subordinated Notes Guarantors, the Non-Guarantor and related eliminations.

Note: The sole purpose of Rural/Metro Inc. was to act as co-issuer of the Senior Subordinated Notes. Rural/Metro Inc. does not conduct any operations. The Balance Sheet for Rural/Metro Inc. at March 31, 2006 consists of equity and due to affiliates totaling an amount equal to $100.

(1) For purposes of this presentation, the Senior Subordinated Notes have been reflected in the balance sheets of both Rural/Metro LLC and Rural/Metro Inc. with the appropriate offset reflected in the eliminations column. Interest expense has been allocated to Rural/Metro LLC only.

(7) Income Taxes

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company released $87.7 million of its deferred tax valuation allowances, primarily those relating to its federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, as a result of management’s determination that realization of the related deferred tax benefits was likely. Prior to the valuation allowance release, the Company recognized only current tax expense, which related primarily to expected state tax payments. Beginning in fiscal 2006, the Company is primarily recognizing deferred income tax expense, as the Company utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its federal and state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. As a result of those deferred tax benefits, minimal current cash payments are required.

The following table shows the components of the income tax (provision) benefit (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)
Current income tax expense/(benefit)	$	(163	)	$	126		$	(796	)	$	(396	)
Deferred income tax expense/(benefit)		1,982			—			(3,320	)		—
Total income tax expense/(benefit)	$	1,819		$	126		$	(4,116	)	$	(396	)
Continuing operations	$	(834	)	$	144		$	(6,750	)	$	(165	)
Discontinued operations		2,653			(18	)		2,634			(231	)
Total income tax expense/(benefit)	$	1,819		$	126		$	(4,116	)	$	(396	)

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 for continuing operations was 50.3 percent and 46.9 percent, respectively, which differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the portion of non-cash interest expense related to the Company’s 12.75% Senior Discount Notes which is not deductible for income tax purposes, non-deductible executive compensation, state income taxes, and certain adjustments to prior year tax provisions. Cash payments for income taxes for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 were $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, primarily consisting of federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 for continuing operations was 2.9 percent and (61.1) percent, respectively, which differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the valuation allowance relating to our deferred tax assets, federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes. The Company received refunds of $0.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2005, and made income tax payments of $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.

On February 3, 2006, the Company received notification from the Internal Revenue Service of its intention to examine the Company’s federal income tax return for the year ended June 30, 2004. Although the ultimate outcome is unknown, management believes that it has adequately provided for any potential adjustment that may arise from the current examination and that the final outcome will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

(8) Gain On Sale of Assets

On August 19, 2005, the Company sold real estate in Arizona for cash proceeds of $1.6 million. This transaction generated a pre-tax gain of $1.3 million which has been included in (gain) loss on sale of assets in the consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

(9) Net Income (Loss) Per Share

A reconciliation of the numerators and denominators (weighted average number of shares outstanding) utilized in the basic and diluted income (loss) per share computations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three Months Ended March 31,					Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)		2005 (As restated)			2006 (As restated)		2005 (As restated)
Income (loss) from continuing operations	$	489	$	(4,847	)	$	6,994	$	(475	)
Average number of shares outstanding—Basic		24,407		23,019			24,323		22,406
Add: Incremental shares for dilutive effect of stock options		883		—			960		—
Average number of shares outstanding—Diluted		25,290		23,019			25,283		22,406
Income (loss) per share—basic	$	0.02	$	(0.21	)	$	0.29	$	(0.02	)
Income (loss) per share—diluted	$	0.02	$	(0.21	)	$	0.28	$	(0.02	)

Approximately 1.8 million and 1.4 million option shares were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005 due to net losses from continuing operations during these periods.

Option shares with exercise prices above the average market prices during the respective periods have been excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share. Such options totaled 1.1 million and 1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and 1.1 million and 2.0 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

(10) Segment Reporting

The Company provides emergency and non-emergency medical transportation and related services, fire protection services, primarily on a subscription fee basis, and a variety of other services.

The Company reevaluated its segment disclosures in fiscal year 2005 in light of the issuance of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 04-10, “Determining Whether to Aggregate Operating Segments That Do Not Meet the Quantitative Thresholds.” As a result of this guidance, the Company has revised its segment disclosures to present four regionally-based reporting segments which correspond with the manner in which the associated operations are managed and evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer. These segments comprise operations within the following areas:

Segment	States
A	Georgia, New York, Northern Ohio, Pennsylvania
B	Alabama, California (fire), Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Dakota, Northern Florida, New Jersey (fire), Southern Florida, Southern Ohio, Tennessee, Wisconsin
C	Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon (fire)
D	California (medical transportation), Central Florida, Colorado, Oregon (medical transportation), Nebraska, South Dakota, Washington

Each reporting segment provides medical transportation and related services while the Company’s fire services are predominately centered in Segments B and C.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements have also been followed in the preparation of the accompanying financial information for each reporting segment. For management purposes, the Company’s measure of segment profitability is defined as income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization, interest, income taxes and minority interests. Additionally, corporate overhead allocations have been included within segment profits. Prior year segment disclosures have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. Certain information presented has been restated from that originally reported to reflect the effect of the change in accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients and the restated results relating from the correction of certain accounting practice errors relating to inventory discussed in Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements, respectively.

(11) Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State of New Jersey. The Company based this decision on the fact that its business consisted primarily of non-emergency medical transportation services business and the limited future potential to obtain 911 emergency transportation contracts in that specific area. As a result of the discontinuation of this service area, the Company wrote-off approximately $1.0 million of goodwill. Additionally, the Company accrued $0.5 million of closure- related costs, primarily severance and lease termination charges and an additional $2.6 million in estimate for uncompensated care. The financial results of this service area for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Also during the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recognized a $2.5 million charge related to an ongoing government investigation into certain of the Company’s former operations in the State of Texas. See Note 13, Commitments and Contingencies below for additional information. This charge has been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006.

26

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company ceased operating in the City of Augusta, Georgia upon expiration of the Company’s exclusive contract to provide medical transportation services to that area. The Company elected not to pursue renewal of this contract based upon the one-year contract term and stipulations that would have been less beneficial to the Company. As a result of the discontinuation of this service area, the Company recognized $0.3 million of closure-related costs, primarily lease termination charges, and an additional $0.7 million in estimate for uncompensated care. The financial results of this service area for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

The additional estimate for uncompensated care in New Jersey and Augusta discussed above were recorded based upon the Company’s experience with declines in accounts receivable collections for discontinued operations subsequent to exiting service areas.

The results of service areas where the Company ceased operations during fiscal 2005 are included in income from discontinued operations in the statement of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005.

Net income (loss) from discontinued operations excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others which are expected to continue. These ongoing services and related costs will be redirected to support new markets or for the expansion of existing service areas. Net revenue and income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, is shown by segment in the tables below (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,					Nine Months Ended March 31,

Income (loss) from discontinued operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 is presented net of income tax benefit of $2.6 million and income tax provision of $0.2 million, respectively.

(12) Defined Benefit Plan

The following table presents the components of net periodic benefit cost for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

	2006		2005
Discount rate	5.00	%	6.25	%
Rate of increase in compensation levels	2.5	%	4.0	%
Expected long-term rate of return on assets	7.5	%	7.5	%

27

The Company contributed approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and $0.8 million and $0.7 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Company’s fiscal 2006 contributions are anticipated to approximate $1.0 million.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and regulatory investigations arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending claims or legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, the Company is unable to predict with certainty the outcome of pending litigation and regulatory investigations. In some pending cases, insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all liabilities in excess of its deductible or self-insured retention arising out of such claims. Unfavorable resolutions of pending or future litigation, regulatory reviews and/or investigations, either individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company’s subsidiary, Sioux Falls Ambulance Inc. (“Sioux Falls”) had been conducting settlement discussions with the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Health and Human Services (“OIG”) regarding alleged improper billing practices in South Dakota. Although Sioux Falls did not admit any liability with respect to the OIG’s claims, Sioux Falls, the United States of America and the OIG entered into a settlement agreement, effective October 25, 2005. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the government agreed to release Sioux Falls from any civil or administrative monetary claims the government may have had against Sioux Falls relating to the alleged improper practices. In exchange for such release, Sioux Falls paid the United States $0.5 million on October 28, 2005.

As with other medical transport companies, the Company has provided certain discounts to healthcare facilities that the Company serves. The U.S. government is conducting an investigation into alleged discounts that the government believes were made in violation of the federal Anti-Kickback Statute in connection with certain of the Company’s contracts that were in effect when the Company had operations in the State of Texas. The Company believes that such alleged discounts complied with applicable law when they were provided. The Company is currently in negotiations with the government regarding a mutually agreeable settlement regarding these allegations. Although there can be no assurances that a settlement agreement will be reached, any such settlement agreement may require the Company to make a substantial payment to the government and enter into a Corporate Integrity Agreement. Management believes that the $2.5 million charge recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2006 is adequate to cover any potential losses relating to this matter. If a settlement is not reached, the government has indicated that it will pursue further civil action. There can be no assurances that this matter will be fully resolved by settlement or that other investigations or legal action related to these matters will not be pursued against the Company in other jurisdictions or for different time frames.

Regulatory Compliance

The Company is subject to numerous laws and regulations of federal, state and local governments. These laws and regulations include, but are not necessarily limited to, matters such as licensure, accreditation, government healthcare program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse. Government activity is ongoing with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations by healthcare providers. See “Legal Proceedings” above. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in exclusion from government healthcare programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. The Company believes that it is substantially in compliance with fraud and abuse statutes and their applicable governmental interpretation.

The Company is from time to time subject to investigations relating to Medicare and Medicaid laws pertaining to its industry. The Company cooperates fully with the government agencies that conduct these investigations. Such reviews cover periods prior to and following the Company’s acquisition of certain operations. Management believes that reserves established for specific contingencies of $2.9 million as of March 31, 2006 and $0.9 million as of June 30, 2005 (including $0.5 million related to Sioux Falls paid during the second quarter 2006) are adequate based on information currently available.

(14) Subsequent Events

Unscheduled principal payment

On May 9, 2006, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro LLC, made a $5.0 million unscheduled principal payment on its Term Loan B. In connection with this payment, the Company wrote-off approximately $0.1 million of deferred financing costs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Credit Facility Amendment No. 3

On May 5, 2006, the Company amended certain terms and conditions contained in its 2005 Credit Facility (“Amendment No. 3”). Specifically, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on the Company’s Term Loan B from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus 2.25%. Additionally, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on the Company’s Letter of Credit Facility from 2.50% to 2.25%. As permitted under the original Credit Facility Agreement, the Company also expanded its Letter of Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $45.0 million, which will be utilized towards continuing enhancement of the Company’s insurance programs.

2005 Credit Facility Waiver

On March 13, 2007, the Company obtained a waiver under the 2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely filing of this Form 10-Q. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements.

Restatement and Accounting Change

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, and as more fully described in Note 1 of the financial statements, we changed our accounting policy relating to the classification of estimated uncollectible amounts related to self-pay patients, defined as “uncompensated care.” This change in accounting was applied retrospectively in accordance with SFAS 154. We now present revenue net of an estimate for uncompensated care within the Consolidated Statement of Operations, and this Amendment reflects such change. Previously, we recorded revenue at full established rates and recorded a provision for estimated amounts not expected to be realized as an operating expense, as is generally accepted practice under the AICPA Guide, Accounting for Health Care Organizations (“Guide”). We believe that the new method of accounting is preferable given recent industry practice and the direction of deliberations relating to proposed revisions to the Guide related to revenue recognition for self-pay patients, and its consistency with the criteria for revenue recognition pursuant to Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104. The retrospective application of this accounting change decreased net revenue and other operating expenses by $25.4 million and $72.1 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively and $20.5 million and $59.4 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. The change in accounting policy, retrospectively applied to the financial statements for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 did not change the previously reported income from continuing operations or net income. The change in accounting policy, retrospectively applied to the financial statements for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 did not change the previously reported income from continuing operations or net income. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the change in accounting policy.

30

As more fully described in Note 2 of the financial statements, in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the second quarter of fiscal 2007, management determined that inventory had been historically overstated by the inclusion of certain durable medical supply items that should instead have been expensed as incurred. All previously issued financial statements contained in the Original Filing have been restated for the impact of expensing these items and resulted in a reduction in net earnings of $105,000 and $16,000 for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively and $0 and $11,000 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively. The cumulative effect of this error on net income for all periods preceding fiscal 2006 was an increase in the accumulated deficit as of July 1, 2005 of $2.8 million. There was no material effect on cash flows from operating, investing or financing activities as a result of the adjustment to inventory. See Item 4—Controls and Procedures.

Management’s Overview

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, our net revenue increased 3.6 percent and 8.0 percent, respectively, over the same period of the prior year. The current quarter declining net revenue growth rate is attributable to the increase we experienced in uncompensated care, changes in the collection patterns associated with certain Medicaid payers within our Segment C and collection delays related to the consolidation of three regional billing centers, all of which are driving an increase in our estimate for uncompensated care netted against revenue. Net income (loss) for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 was ($4.1) million and $2.3 million, respectively. The net loss in the third quarter is directly attributable to two discontinued operations. First, we made the decision to exit the New Jersey ambulance market, primarily due to competitive factors that limited our ability to secure exclusive contracts within municipalities for 911-emergency medical transport services, which resulted in a $3 million after tax loss. Secondly, management made the decision to record a $1.6 million after tax reserve relating to the government’s investigation into certain of our discontinued Texas operations for the years 1993 through 2002.

Executive Summary

We provide both emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to approximately 350 communities in 23 states. We provide these medical transportation services under contracts with governmental entities, hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare facilities and organizations. As of March 31, 2006, we had approximately 95 exclusive contracts to provide 911 emergency medical transportation services and approximately 625 contracts to provide non-emergency medical transportation services.

We believe that providing a mix of emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services diversifies our revenue base and permits us to utilize our medical transportation vehicles and personnel more efficiently. We derive revenue from our medical transportation services through reimbursements we receive from private insurance companies and government-funded healthcare programs such as Medicare and Medicaid and, to a lesser extent, from fees paid to us directly by our individual patients. In addition, under certain of our 911 emergency medical transportation contracts we receive local government subsidies to offset the cost of providing uncompensated care to their respective communities.

Our medical transport revenue depends on various factors, including the mix of payers, the mix of rates within existing markets and the mix of activity between emergency medical transportation services and non-emergency transportation services, as well as other competitive factors. Results of operations are discussed below on the basis of actual transports because transports are more directly related to revenue.

We are also a provider of fire protection and related services, and offer such services on a subscription-fee basis to residential and commercial property owners in three states and under long-term contracts with fire districts, industrial sites and airports at 16 sites located in 11 states. Our fire protection services consist primarily of fire suppression, fire prevention and first responder medical care.

Operating Statistics

In evaluating our business, we monitor a number of key operating and financial statistics, including net/net EMS Average Patient Charge, (“net/net EMS APC”), average daily deposits (see further discussion in “Liquidity and Capital Resources”), days sales outstanding, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”, see further discussion in “Liquidity and Capital Resources”) and medical transport volume, among others.

The following is a summary of certain key operating statistics. Medical transports and net/net EMS APC statistics have been adjusted to eliminate discontinued operations.

31

	Three Months Ended March 31,				Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 As restated		2005 As restated		2006 As restated		2005 As restated
Medical Transports (1)		263,157		260,373		783,142		751,512
Net/Net EMS APC (2)	$	341	$	333	$	343	$	328

(1) Medical transports from continuing operations are defined as actual emergency and non-emergency patient transports.

(2) Net/Net EMS APC is defined as gross medical transport revenue less provisions for discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers and uncompensated care divided by emergency and non-emergency transports from continuing operations.

For the last 12 months ended March 31, 2006, Average Days’ Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) increased from 53 days to 60 days. The 7 day increase is primarily due to our fiscal 2005 exit from fixed-fee contracts in Scottsdale, Arizona and Fort Worth, Texas, which contributed to a three-day increase in DSO, as well as a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. Additionally, we have experienced an extension of the payment cycle related to a change in claims processing procedures implemented by the State of Arizona for its Medicaid patients. DSO is calculated using the average accounts receivable balance on a rolling 13-month average and net revenue on a rolling 12-month basis and has not been adjusted to eliminate discontinued operations.

Factors Affecting Our Operating Results

Our fiscal 2006 third quarter and year-to-date results reflect our continued focus on growing and strengthening our base of core operations. We continued our emphasis on expanding service areas that we have identified for future long-term growth, seeking targeted new contract opportunities and improving operating efficiencies.

We have observed the following trends and events that have had an impact on our financial condition and results of operations or are likely to have an impact on our financial condition and results of operations in the future.

Insurance Programs

Throughout fiscal 2006 we have continued to close worker’s compensation insurance-related claims as soon as possible. We have also worked to minimize future insurance-related losses through proactive risk management and workplace safety initiatives. Our efforts have given rise to favorable historical claims experience, which, in part, resulted in a $2.6 million reduction in our worker’s compensation claim reserves in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Income Taxes

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, we released $87.7 million of our deferred tax valuation allowances, primarily those relating to our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, as a result of management’s determination that realization of the related deferred tax benefits was likely. Beginning in fiscal 2006, we are primarily recognizing deferred income tax expense, with minimal current cash payments, as we utilize our net operating loss carryforwards to reduce our federal and state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. In addition, the income tax provision includes the impact of certain tax adjustments recorded discretely in the third quarter. See “Income Tax Provision” section of “Results of Operations” for further discussion.

Gain on Sale of Real Estate

On August 19, 2005, we sold real estate in Arizona for cash proceeds of $1.6 million resulting in a pre-tax gain of $1.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

Discontinued Operations

During fiscal 2006, we discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State of New Jersey and Augusta, Georgia. The results of operations for these service areas have been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations. See “Results of Operations—Discontinued Operations” for further discussion.

Contract Activity

New Contracts

Contract activities through March 31, 2006 include our new five-year contract for exclusive emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services to the City of Salem, Oregon, which became effective July 1, 2005. We also commenced our new two-year contract as the exclusive emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services provider for the City of Roswell, New Mexico and surrounding Chaves County on July 1, 2005.

New contracts also included a new three-year contract that commenced September 10, 2005 to assume all non-emergency medical transportation services from Orlando Regional Healthcare System, one of Central Florida’s largest healthcare providers. Our contract enabled us to acquire Orlando Regional’s existing fleet of ambulances and hire all eligible medical personnel.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, we were awarded an exclusive contract to provide emergency medical transportation services in Salt Lake City, Utah. The contract, which commenced on April 3, 2006, has an initial four-year term, followed by two four-year renewal periods.

Contract Renewals

Material contract renewals awarded through March 31, 2006 included a two-year renewal of our long standing contract as the 911 medical transportation services provider in Aurora, Colorado, a five-year renewal of our contract to provide 911 medical transportation services in Blount County, Tennessee, a three-year extension to continue as the exclusive 911 emergency medical transportation provider in Knox County, Tennessee, a five-year renewal contract to continue providing exclusive emergency and non-emergency ambulance services in Louden County, Tennessee, a one-year contract renewal to continue as the exclusive provider of 911 emergency ambulance services in Youngstown, Ohio and a two-year option renewal to continue to provide exclusive 911 emergency medical transportation services in the City of Rochester, New York.

Contract Non-Renewals

In an effort to strengthen our base of core operations, we often perform periodic financial reviews of contracts for profitability. Based upon such a review, we made a strategic decision to exit our Augusta, Georgia 911 emergency medical services contract upon its expiration on December 31, 2005. This contract generated approximately $0.8 million in income from discontinued operations, during fiscal 2005. Net income excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, in a competitive bidding process we were not selected to continue as the 911 emergency medical transportation provider to the City of Scottsdale, Arizona. Our services contract ended on February 17, 2006; however, due to our continuing involvement in the City of Scottsdale’s non-emergency medical transportation services market and our role as the back-up 911 emergency medical transportation provider, this service area remains a continuing operation. This contract generated approximately $6.0 million and ($0.4) million in net revenue and loss from continuing operations, respectively, during fiscal 2005.

Our exclusive 911 emergency medical services contract with the City of Chandler, Arizona expired on December 17, 2005. Prior to the expiration, we were notified by the Chandler City Council that it had voted to continue our services in approximately half of the City. This contract, in its entirety, generated approximately $0.4 million in net income from continuing operations, during fiscal 2005. As a result of this change, we have re-deployed certain of our emergency medical transportation resources to expand our non-emergency medical transportation market share.

New Accounting Standards

SFAS 123R

On July 1, 2005, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“SFAS”) Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”) using the modified prospective method. As a result of the adoption, we recognized approximately $7,000 and $23,000 of stock based compensation expense in the statement of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3, “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards” (“FSP 123(R)-3”). Under the provisions of FSP 123(R)-3, entities may follow either the transition guidance for the additional-paid-in-capital pool as prescribed by SFAS 123(R), or elect to use the alternative transition method as described in the FSP. An entity that adopts SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application method may make a one-time election to adopt the transition method described in the FSP. We are currently evaluating the available transition alternatives and have until November 2006, which is one year from the effective date of the FSP, to finalize our one-time election.

Net revenue growth of $3.9 million, or 3.6 percent, resulted from a $2.8 million, or 3.0 percent increase in medical transportation and related services revenue, a $1.2 million, or 7.6 percent increase in fire and other services revenue.

As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses were 120 basis points higher for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the prior period primarily due to an 80 basis point increase in payroll and employee benefits and a 30 basis point increase in other operating expenses, both as a percentage of net revenue. These fluctuations are described in further detail below.

Income from continuing operations per diluted share for the three months ended March 31, 2006 includes an increase in the average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period from 23.0 million shares at March 31, 2005 to 25.3 million shares at March 31, 2006 due to common shares issued as a result of stock option exercises as well as an increase in the number of unexercised stock options which were in the money at the end of the period.

Net Revenue

The following table shows a comparison of consolidated net revenue by business (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006		2005		$ Change		% Change
	(As restated)		(As restated)
Medical transportation and related services	$	95,974	$	93,212	$	2,762	3.0	%
Fire and other services		16,535		15,361		1,174	7.6	%
Total net revenue	$	112,509	$	108,573	$	3,936	3.6	%

Medical Transportation and Related Services

Approximately $2.4 million of the increase in medical transportation and related services revenue is due to an increase in the number of transports and approximately $0.4 million is due to an increase in rates. Same service area revenue accounted for $0.2 million of the increase, while the remaining $2.6 million of the increase resulted from revenues generated under new contracts in Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico and the Orlando Regional Medical Center.

A comparison of transports is included in table below:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006	2005	Transport Change	% Change
Medical transportation	263,157	260,373	2,784	1.1	%
Alternative transportation	21,728	17,436	4,292	24.6	%
Total transports from continuing operations	284,885	277,809	7,076	2.5	%

Medical transports in areas that we served in both three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 decreased by approximately 5,400 transports, while medical transports related to new contracts in Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico and the Orlando Regional Medical Center totaled approximately 8,200 for the three months ended March 31, 2006. The 24.6% increase in transports for our alternative transportation services business can be directly attributed to growth in our non-emergency medical transportation business.

Consolidated net/net EMS APC for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $341 compared to $333 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. The 2.4 percent increase in net/net EMS APC is primarily a result of rate escalators and other general rate increases that are contained or allowed in contracts to provide EMS services as well as a change in payer mix in select markets.

Discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers (“contractual allowances”) related to continuing operations, which are reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation revenue, totaled $64.3 million and $56.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such discounts represented 35.8 percent and 34.4 percent of gross medical transportation fees for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase of 140 basis points is primarily a result of rate increases and a change in payer mix in certain markets. Such rate increases are applicable to commercial insurance and private pay patients. We are unable to pass on these rate increases to Medicare, Medicaid and certain other payers. The estimate for uncompensated care related to continuing operations, which are also reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation revenue, totaled $25.5 million and $20.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such discounts represented 14.2 percent and 12.5 percent of gross medical transportation fees for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The increase in the estimate for uncompensated care is primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. Additionally, we experienced an extension of the payment cycle related to a change in claims processing procedures implemented by the State of Arizona for its Medicaid patients. Our uncompensated care reserve methodology is based on a standardized procedure that includes periodic reviews of subsequent historical receipts to determine actual historical collection percentages. These percentages are used in the determination of current anticipated collection percentages that are applied to gross revenues in calculating net revenue. We believe this change in collection patterns is short-term in nature, however, in accordance with our reserving methodology, we recorded additional reserves until such time that subsequent receipts reflect improved collections results.

35

Fire and Other Services

The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to fire subscription revenue growth totaling $1.1 million, or 11.1 percent, of which $0.6 million was related to higher subscription rates and $0.5 million was related to an increase in the number of subscribers. Additionally, master fire fees increased by $0.3 million due to increases in various master fire contract rates and other revenue decreased $0.3 million due to a decline in home healthcare revenues.

Operating Expenses

Payroll and Employee Benefits

The overall increase in payroll and employee benefits is primarily due to greater medical transport activity, including higher salary expense of $1.1 million related to the impact of new service areas in Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico and the new Orlando Regional Medical Center contract, a $0.7 million increase in health insurance expense and general wage rate increases. These increases were partially offset by a $2.3 million reduction in management incentive pay primarily due to one-time bonuses paid in fiscal 2005 associated with the refinancing transaction.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses was due to higher professional fees of $0.6 million primarily associated with market share protection efforts in our Arizona markets, a $0.6 million increase in fuel expense driven by an overall increase in the cost of fuel, higher contractual service and management fees totaling $0.5 million related to the increased number of transports and increases in other miscellaneous operating expenses, none of which was individually significant. These increases were partially offset by a $0.8 million decrease in general liability insurance costs resulting from favorable historical claims experience in recent years and a $0.6 million decrease in costs associated with our joint venture with the City of San Diego primarily due to insurance savings realized when the policy was transferred from the Company to the City.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average effective interest rate including a $1.2 million increase in non-cash interest expense related to the accretion of our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

In connection with the fiscal 2005 debt refinancing transaction, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in the three months ended March 31, 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the retired debt and $0.1 million related to unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

Income Tax Provision

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, we released $87.7 million of our deferred tax valuation allowances, primarily those relating to our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards as a result of management’s determination that realization of the related deferred tax benefits was likely. Beginning in fiscal 2006, the Company is primarily recognizing deferred income tax expense, as the Company utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its federal and state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. As a result, minimal current cash payments are required. Deferred income tax benefit recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $2.0 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded a $0.8 million income tax benefit related to continuing operations, including a deferred income tax benefit of $0.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 50.3 percent. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the portion of non-cash interest expense related to our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes which is not deductible for income tax purposes, non-deductible executive compensation, state income taxes, and certain adjustments to prior year tax provisions. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2006 recorded a $2.7 million income tax benefit related to discontinued operations. Cash payments for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $0.2 million, primarily consisting of federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.

During the three months ended March 31, 2005, we recorded a $0.1 million income tax benefit, resulting in an effective tax rate of 2.9 percent. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the valuation allowance relating to our deferred tax assets, federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes. We also recorded $18,000 in income tax provision related to discontinued operations during the three months ended March 31, 2005. We made income tax payments of $0.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2005.

36

Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State of New Jersey. We based this decision on our predominate share of non-emergency medical transportation services business, and the limited future potential to obtain 911 emergency transportation contracts in that specific area. The financial results of this service area for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations. Additionally, the results of operations for service areas where we have ceased operations prior to January 1, 2006 have been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, net revenue associated with discontinued service areas totaled $0.1 million and $14.5 million, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $4.6 million, which includes an income tax benefit of $2.7 million. Net income from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $1.9 million, which includes no income tax provision. A net loss was generated during the current period due to the accrual of $0.5 million of closure-related costs, primarily severance and lease termination charges, an additional $2.6 million in estimate for uncompensated care and a $1.0 million goodwill write-off. The additional estimates for uncompensated care were recorded based upon the Company’s experience with accounts receivable collections for discontinued operations compared to historical levels. Net income (loss) from discontinued operations excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others. These ongoing services and associated costs will be redirected to support new markets or for the expansion of existing service areas.

Also during the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we recorded an accrual of $2.5 million related to an ongoing government investigation into certain of our former operations in the State of Texas. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. This charge has been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2005—Segments

Overview

We provide emergency and non-emergency medical transportation services, fire protection services, primarily on a subscription fee basis, and a variety of other services. We have four regionally-based reporting segments which correspond with the manner in which the associated operations are managed and evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer. These segments comprise operations within the following areas:

Segment	States
A	Georgia, New York, Northern Ohio, Pennsylvania
B	Alabama, California (fire), Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Dakota, Northern Florida, New Jersey (fire), Southern Florida, Southern Ohio, Tennessee, Wisconsin
C	Arizona, New Mexico, Oregon (fire)
D	California (medical transportation), Central Florida, Colorado, Oregon (medical transportation), Nebraska, South Dakota, Washington

Each reporting segment provides medical transportation services while our fire services are predominantly centered in Segments B and C.

The accounting policies used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements have also been followed in the preparation of the accompanying financial information for each reporting segment. For management purposes, segment profitability is defined as income from continuing operations before depreciation and amortization, interest, income taxes and minority interests. Additionally, corporate overhead allocations have been included within segment profits. Segment results presented below reflect continuing operations only.

The key drivers that impact net medical transportation revenues include rates charged for such services, payer mix, number of transports and government subsidies. These factors can vary significantly from market to market and also can change over time. The main drivers of fire and other revenue are fire subscription rates and the number of subscribers.

37

Segment A

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment A for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC and medical transports):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	23,004		$	23,755		$	(751	)	(3.2	%)
Other services		1,035			925			110		11.8	%
Total net revenue	$	24,039		$	24,680		$	(641	)	(2.6	%)
Segment profit	$	2,949		$	3,037		$	(88	)	(2.9	%)
Operating margin		12.3	%		12.3	%
Medical transports		71,466			75,571			(4,105	)	(5.4	%)
Net/net EMS APC	$	299		$	293		$	6		2.2	%

Transportation rate increases did not contribute to the decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue for the quarter, while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.8 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. Uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 9.4 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 10.8 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. The decrease in medical transports can be attributed to increased competition in certain areas and reduced call volume. The operating margin as a percentage of revenue remained constant after factoring in the 140 basis point increase in the estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue and a $0.4 million increase in general liability insurance. These increases are partially offset by a 60 basis point reduction in payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 59.2 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 58.6 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to reductions in headcount, health insurance costs and workers’ compensation expense partially offset by increased overtime. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue grew from 21.7 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 24.0 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily driven by $0.4 million increase in general liability insurance costs and a $0.1 million increase in fuel costs, partially offset by declines in vehicle maintenance expense and operating supplies.

The increase in net/net EMS APC was primarily a result of rate increases and the change in payer mix in certain markets.

Segment B

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment B for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC, medical transports and fire subscriptions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	15,464		$	16,771		$	(1,307	)	(7.8	%)
Fire and other services		5,278			5,146			132		2.6	%
Total net revenue	$	20,742		$	21,917		$	(1,175	)	(5.4	%)
Segment profit	$	1,740		$	1,964		$	(224	)	(11.4	%)
Operating margin		8.4	%		9.0	%
Medical transports		58,449			60,549			(2,100	)	(3.5	%)
Net/net EMS APC	$	248		$	261		$	(13	)	(5.2	%)
Fire subscriptions at period end		34,870			35,196			(326	)	(0.9	%)

Transportation rate decreases contributed to a $0.7 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.6 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 10.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 13.8 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. The decline in medical transports was primarily due to greater competition in certain markets. The net decrease in medical transportation and related service revenue was partially offset by higher master fire contract fees and fire subscription rates despite a slight decline in the number of fire subscriptions.

The 60 basis point decrease in operating margin is primarily due to a 330 basis point increase in the estimate for uncompensated care and a 3.5% decrease in medical transports and increased payroll related expenses as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 59.7 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 64.4 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to increases in overtime and temporary staffing wages partially offset by decreased worker’s compensation expense. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue declined from 24.0 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 23.2 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $0.3 million decrease in general liability insurance costs and declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

Segment C

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment C for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC, medical transports and fire subscriptions):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	33,969		$	31,387		$	2,582		8.2	%
Fire and other services		9,957			8,983			974		10.8	%
Total net revenue	$	43,926		$	40,370		$	3,556		8.8	%
Segment profit	$	5,243		$	6,526		$	(1,283	)	(19.7	%)
Operating margin		11.9	%		16.2	%
Medical transports		67,005			63,708			3,297		5.2	%
Net/net EMS APC	$	496		$	482		$	14		3.0	%
Fire subscriptions at period end		82,373			76,895			5,478		7.1	%

Approximately $2.3 million of the increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue is a result of an increase in the number of transports including our new service area in Roswell, New Mexico and approximately $0.3 million is a result of an increase in rates. The increase in the number of medical transports was primarily a result of the significant population growth experienced in the states in which Segment C operates and the new Roswell, New Mexico service area, which contributed approximately 1,200 additional medical transports during the third quarter of fiscal 2006. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 10.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 11.2 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to an extension of the payment cycle related to a change in claims processing procedures implemented by the State of Arizona for its Medicaid patients. The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to 7.1% growth in the number of fire subscriptions and higher fire subscription rates.

Operating margins deteriorated primarily as a result of higher estimates for uncompensated care and payroll-related and other operating expense as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 52.9 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 56.7 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to increased overtime, fill-in and temporary staffing expense to support the increase in transports. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 24.4 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 26.6 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $0.4 million increase in vehicle maintenance costs associated with a greater number of vehicles and a $0.3 million increase in professional fees associated with contract negotiations, partially offset by declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

40

Segment D

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment D for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC and medical transports):

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	23,537		$	21,299		$	2,238		10.5	%
Other services		265			307			(42	)	(13.7	%)
Total net revenue	$	23,802		$	21,606		$	2,196		10.2	%
Segment profit	$	2,274		$	1,510		$	764		50.6	%
Operating margin		9.6	%		7.0	%
Medical transports		66,237			60,545			5,692		9.4	%
Net/net EMS APC	$	312		$	299		$	13		4.2	%

The entire $2.2 million increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue is the result of an increase in rates. Our new service area in Salem, Oregon and the new Orlando Regional Medical Center contract resulted in approximately 2,800 and 4,200 additional transports, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2006. This new contract transport growth is partially offset by a decline in same service area transports is primarily due to lower interfacility transports, specifically in the Seattle and San Diego markets. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 19.1 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 19.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to a change in payer mix in certain markets. The change in payer mix partially resulted from our decision to expand certain of our 911 emergency medical transportation markets to provide opportunities to achieve greater resource utilization and leverage of our fixed asset base, despite a somewhat higher level of uncompensated care. The increase in Segment D’s profit was primarily due to a substantial improvement in operating margins driven by a reduction in other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue, partially offset by an increase in the estimate for uncompensated care. The new Orlando Regional Medical Center contract contributed to the increase in operating margin as a result of economies of scale associated with higher utilization and redeployment of existing resources.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 51.3 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 52.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily due to increased general wage expense and overtime to support the increase in medical transports. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 36.5 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 to 32.7 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2006 primarily driven by a $0.2 million decrease in general liability insurance costs, half of which relates to switching to the City of San Diego’s general liability insurance policy, and decreases in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant. These declines were partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in first-responder fees and a $0.2 million increase in fuel expense due to increases in the cost per gallon of fuel.

The increase in net/net EMS APC can primarily be attributed to rate increases in certain markets and the Orlando Regional Medical Center economies of scale as discussed above.

Note > Variances over 100% not displayed.

Net revenue growth of $25.0 million or 8.0 percent is primarily a result of a $21.8 million or 8.2 percent increase in medical transportation and related services revenue, and a $3.2 million, or 7.0 percent increase in fire and other services revenue.

As a percentage of net revenue, operating expenses were 150 basis points lower for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the prior period primarily due to a 170 basis point decline in payroll and employee benefits as a percentage of net revenue. Additionally, the recognition of a $1.3 million pre-tax gain from the sale of real estate in Arizona in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 contributed 40 basis points to the decrease in total operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue. These fluctuations are described in further detail below.

Income from continuing operations per diluted share for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 includes a $1.3 million pretax gain on the sale of real estate in Arizona and an increase in the average number of diluted shares outstanding during the period from 22.4 million shares at March 31, 2005 to 25.3 million shares at March 31, 2006. The increase in the average number of shares outstanding is due to common shares issued as a result of stock option exercises as well as an increase in the number of unexercised stock options that were in the money at the end of the period.

Net Revenue

The following table shows a comparison of consolidated net revenue by business (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006		2005		$ Change		% Change
	(As restated)		(As restated)
Medical transportation and related services	$	287,744	$	265,984	$	21,760	8.2	%
Fire and other services		49,494		46,264		3,230	7.0	%
Total net revenue	$	337,238	$	312,248	$	24,990	8.0	%

Medical Transportation and Related Services

Approximately $8.5 million of the increase in medical transportation and related services revenue is due to an increase in the number of transports and approximately $13.3 million is due to an increase in rates. Same service area revenue accounted for $14.6 million of the increase, while the remaining $7.2 million of the increase resulted from revenues generated under new contracts in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington, Roswell, New Mexico and the Orlando Regional Medical Center.

A comparison of transports is included in the table below:

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
			Transport	%
	2006	2005	Change	Change
Medical transportation	783,142	751,512	31,630	4.2	%
Alternative transportation	59,633	51,136	8,497	16.6	%
Total transports from continuing operations	842,775	802,648	40,127	5.0	%

Medical transports in areas that we served in both nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 increased by approximately 10,300 transports, or 1.4 percent, as a result of an overall aging population, increase in population density where we have significant operations and increased patient travel between specialized treatment health care facilities. Additionally, medical transports related to new contracts in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington, Roswell, New Mexico and the Orlando Regional Medical Center totaled approximately 21,300 for the nine months ended March 31, 2006. The 16.6% increase in transports for our alternative transportation services business can be directly attributed to growth in our non-emergency medical transportation business.

Consolidated net/net EMS APC for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $343 compared to $328 for the nine months ended March 31, 2005. The 4.6 percent increase in net/net EMS APC is primarily a result of rate escalators and other general rate increases that are contained or allowed in contracts to provide EMS services as well as a change in payer mix in selected markets.

Discounts applicable to Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party payers (“contractual allowances”) related to continuing operations, which are reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation revenue, totaled $183.3 million and $156.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such discounts represented 35.0 percent and 33.9 percent of gross medical transportation fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase of 110 basis points is primarily a result of a rate increases and a change in payer mix in certain markets. Such rate increases are applicable to commercial insurance and private pay patients. We are unable to pass on these rate increases to Medicare, Medicaid and certain other payers. The estimate for uncompensated care related to continuing operations, which is also reflected as a reduction of gross medical transportation revenue, totaled $71.4 million and $59.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Such discounts represented 13.6 percent and 12.8 percent of gross medical transportation fees for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The increase in the uncompensated care is primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. Additionally, we experienced an extension of the payment cycle related to a change in claims processing procedures implemented by the State of Arizona for its Medicaid patients. Our uncompensated care reserve methodology is based on a standardized procedure that includes periodic reviews of subsequent historical receipts to determine actual historical collection percentages. These percentages are used in the determination of current anticipated collection percentages that are applied to gross

43

revenues in calculating net revenue and the estimate for uncompensated care. We believe this change in collection patterns is short-term in nature, however, in accordance with our reserving methodology, we recorded additional reserves until such time that subsequent receipts reflect improved collections results.

Fire and Other Services

The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to fire subscription revenue growth totaling $3.1 million, or 10.7 percent, of which $1.8 million was related to higher subscription rates and $1.3 million was related to an increase in the number of subscribers. Master fire fees increased by $1.0 million due to increases in various master fire contract rates, and other revenue decreased by $1.2 million primarily due to decreases in home health care revenue and one-time consulting fees recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 partially offset by revenue associated with Hurricanes Rita and Katrina relief efforts recognized during the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Operating Expenses

Payroll and Employee Benefits

The overall increase in payroll and employee benefits is primarily due to greater medical transport activity, including higher salary expense of $3.8 million related to the impact of new service areas in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington, Roswell, New Mexico and the new Orlando Regional Medical Center contract and general wage rate increases. These increases were partially offset by a $2.6 million reduction in workers’ compensation expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 due to improved claims history and continuing overall favorable insurance trends and a $1.4 million decline in management incentive expense due in part to one-time bonuses of $1.8 million paid during the third quarter of fiscal 2005 associated with our debt refinancing activities.

Payroll and employee benefits as a percentage of net revenue decreased primarily due to the reduction in worker’s compensation expense described above.

Depreciation and Amortization

The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to higher depreciation expense as a result of increased capital expenditures during fiscal 2006 and 2005, partially offset by a $0.4 million write-off of a non-compete covenant in the prior year.

Other Operating Expenses

The increase in other operating expenses was principally due to higher professional fees of $3.8 million primarily related to our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, a one-time $0.5 million fee paid during the second quarter of fiscal 2006 related to an amendment of our credit facility and higher professional fees associated with market share protection efforts in our Arizona markets. Additional increases include a $2.1 million increase in fuel expense primarily driven by an overall increase in the cost of fuel, higher contractual service and management fees totaling $1.8 million related to the increased number of transports, and increases in other miscellaneous operating expenses, none of which were individually significant. These increases were partially offset by a $2.9 million reduction in general liability insurance costs resulting from favorable historical claims experience in recent years.

Gain on Sale of Assets

We recognized a $1.3 million pre-tax gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Cash proceeds from this transaction totaled $1.6 million.

Interest Expense

The increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average effective interest rate including a $4.6 million increase in non-cash interest expense related to the accretion of our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes, partially offset by interest savings related to inception-to-date unscheduled Term Loan B principal payments totaling $23.0 million through March 31, 2006.

Loss on Early Extinguishment of Debt

In connection with the fiscal 2005 debt refinancing transaction, we recorded $8.2 million of debt extinguishment costs in the nine months ended March 31, 2005. These costs included non-cash charges of $5.6 million related to the write-off of debt issuance costs associated with the retired debt and $0.1 million related to unamortized discounts as well as cash redemption premiums of $2.5 million.

44

Income Tax Provision

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, we released $87.7 million of our deferred tax valuation allowances, primarily those relating to our federal and state net operating loss carryforwards , as a result of management’s determination that realization of the related deferred tax benefits was likely. Beginning in fiscal 2006, the Company is primarily recognizing deferred income tax expense, as the Company utilizes its net operating loss carryforwards to reduce its federal and state taxes currently payable and the associated deferred tax benefits are realized. As a result, minimal current cash payments are required. Deferred income tax expense recognized during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $3.3 million.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded a $6.8 million income tax provision related to continuing operations, including a deferred income tax expense of $5.8 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 46.9 percent. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the portion of non-cash interest expense related to our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes which is not deductible for income tax purposes, non-deductible executive compensation, state income taxes, and certain adjustments to prior year tax provisions. Additionally, during the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded a $2.6 million income tax benefit related to discontinued operations. Cash payments for income taxes for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 were $0.6 million and consisted primarily of federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2005, we recorded a $0.2 million income tax provision related to continuing operations, resulting in an effective tax rate of (61.1) percent. This rate differs from the federal statutory rate of 35.0% primarily as a result of the valuation allowance relating to our deferred tax assets, federal alternative minimum taxes and state income taxes. The Company received refunds of $0.2 and made income tax payments of $0.5 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2005.

Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we discontinued all medical transportation services provided in the State of New Jersey. We based this decision on the fact that our business primarily consisted of non-emergency medical transportation services and the limited future potential to obtain 911 emergency transportation contracts in that specific area. The financial results of this service area for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Effective December 31, 2005 we ceased operating in the City of Augusta, Georgia upon expiration of our exclusive contract to provide medical transportation services to that area. We elected not to pursue renewal of this contract based upon the one-year contract term and stipulations that would have been less beneficial to us. The financial results of this service area for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations.

Additionally, the results of operations for service areas where we have ceased operations during fiscal 2005 have been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2005.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, net revenue associated with these discontinued service areas totaled $9.4 million and $43.2 million, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $4.7 million, which includes an income tax benefit of $2.6 million. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 was $5.0 million, which includes an income tax provision of $0.2 million. A net loss was generated during the current period due to the accrual of $0.9 million of closure-related costs, primarily severance and lease termination charges, an additional $3.4 million in estimate for uncompensated care and a $1.0 million goodwill write-off related to the closure of the New Jersey operation. The additional estimate for uncompensated care was recorded based upon the Company’s experience with accounts receivable collections for discontinued operations compared to historical levels. Net income from discontinued operations excludes the allocation of certain shared services costs such as human resources, financial services, risk management and legal services, among others. These ongoing services and associated costs will be redirected to support new markets or for the expansion of existing service areas.

Also during the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we recorded an accrual of $2.5 million related to an ongoing government investigation into certain of our former operations in the State of Texas. See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. This charge has been included in income (loss) from discontinued operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

Medical transports		216,463			220,898			(4,435	)	(2.0	)%
Net/net EMS APC	$	302		$	296		$	6		1.8	%

Transportation rate increases contributed to a $0.1 million increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.4 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 9.7 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 10.5 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations. The entire decrease in transports can be attributed to third quarter fiscal 2006 activity due to increased competition in certain areas and reduced call volume.

Operating margins improved principally due to lower payroll-related costs as a percentage of net revenue partially offset by higher other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 60.0 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 58.4 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to reductions in temporary staffing, health insurance costs and workers’ compensation expense partially offset by higher training wages. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue grew from 20.0 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 21.9 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily driven by a $1.1 million increase in general liability insurance costs and a $0.5 million increase in fuel costs partially offset by declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

Net/net EMS APC increased slightly due to rate increases and the change in payer mix in certain markets.

Segment B

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment B for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC, medical transports and fire subscriptions):

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	48,556		$	48,103		$	453		0.9	%
Fire and other services		15,998			15,662			336		2.1	%
Total net revenue	$	64,554		$	63,765		$	789		1.2	%
Segment profit	$	7,250		$	5,767		$	1,483		25.6	%
Operating margin		11.2	%		9.0	%
Medical transports		175,511			175,887			(376	)	(0.2	)%
Net/net EMS APC	$	258		$	257		$	1		0.4	%
Fire subscriptions at period end		34,870			35,196			(326	)	(0.9	)%

Transportation rate increases contributed to a $0.8 million increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue while a decline in the number of transports contributed to a $0.3 million decrease in net medical transportation and related services revenue. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 11.4 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 13.3 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to a change in collection patterns stemming from the consolidation of three regional billing locations and an increase in private pay patients with lower receivable collectibility in certain sectors of the Tennessee, Florida and Indiana markets which are included in this segment. Higher master fire contract fees and fire subscription rates also contributed to net revenue growth despite a slight decline in the number of fire subscriptions.

Operating margins increased due to operational efficiencies, primarily lower other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 61.5 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 62.2 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to a $0.4 million reduction in workers’ compensation expense partially offset by higher scheduled overtime and fill-in wages. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue declined from 23.5 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 21.9 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily driven by a $0.8 million decrease in general liability insurance costs and declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in fuel costs.

47

Segment C

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment C for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC, medical transports and fire subscriptions):

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change		% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	99,510		$	85,098		$	14,412	16.9	%
Fire and other services		30,416			26,594			3,822	14.4	%
Total net revenue	$	129,926		$	111,692		$	18,234	16.3	%
Segment profit	$	19,968		$	16,126		$	3,842	23.8	%
Operating margin		15.4	%		14.4	%
Medical transports		194,999			178,527			16,472	9.2	%
Net/net EMS APC	$	499		$	466		$	33	7.1	%
Fire subscriptions at period end		82,373			76,895			5,478	7.1	%

Approximately $4.9 million of the increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue is a result of a greater number of transports, including our new service area in Roswell, New Mexico and approximately $9.5 million is a result of an increase in rates. The increase in the number of transports was primarily a result of the significant population growth experienced in the states in which Segment C operates and the new Roswell, New Mexico service area, which contributed approximately 3,300 transports during the nine months ended March 31, 2006. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 10.9 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 11.3 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to an extension of the payment cycle related to a change in claims processing procedures implemented by the State of Arizona for its Medicaid patients. The increase in fire and other services revenue is primarily due to 7.1% growth in the number of fire subscriptions, higher fire subscription rates, increased forestry fees and one-time Hurricane Rita relief revenue of $0.5 million recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

The increase in Segment C’s profit includes a $1.3 million gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Excluding the gain on the sale of real estate, operating margins remained relatively flat for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 as compared to the nine months ended March 31, 2006.

Payroll related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased 10 basis points from 56.3 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 56.4 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to payroll efficiencies achieved while servicing a greater number of transports. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue increased from 24.1 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 25.4 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily driven by a $1.3 million increase in vehicle maintenance expense due to an increase in the number of vehicles year over year, a $1.0 million increase in professional fees associated with contract negotiations, a $0.8 million increase in fuel costs and a $0.6 million increase in operating supplies partially offset by a slight decrease in insurance costs and declines in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant.

The increase in net/net EMS APC is a result of rate increases in certain markets primarily offset by increased estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of net revenue.

48

Segment D

The following table presents financial results and key operating statistics for Segment D for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands, except net/net EMS APC and medical transports):

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006 (As restated)			2005 (As restated)			$ Change			% Change
Net Revenue
Medical transportation and related services	$	69,158		$	61,968		$	7,190		11.6	%
Other services		341			1,253			(912	)	(72.8	)%
Total net revenue	$	69,499		$	63,221		$	6,278		9.9	%
Segment profit	$	6,965		$	4,843		$	2,122		43.8	%
Operating margin		10.0	%		7.7	%
Medical transports		196,169			176,200			19,969		11.3	%
Net/net EMS APC	$	309		$	299		$	10		3.3	%

Approximately $0.3 million of the increase in net medical transportation and related services revenue is the result of a greater number of transports and approximately $6.9 million as a result of an increase in rates. Our new service areas in Salem, Oregon, Tacoma, Washington and our new Orlando Regional contract resulted in approximately 8,400, 1,900 and 7,700 additional transports, respectively, for the nine months ended March 31, 2006. The estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of gross medical transportation revenue increased from 18.8 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 18.9 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to rate increases and a change in payer mix in certain markets. The change in payer mix partially resulted from our decision to expand certain of our 911 emergency medical transportation markets to provide opportunities to achieve greater resource utilization and leverage of our fixed asset base, despite a somewhat higher associated estimate. The decline in other services revenue is primarily due to consulting fees recognized in the prior year.

The increase in Segment D’s profit was primarily driven by reductions in other operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue partially offset by an increase in the estimate for uncompensated care. The new Orlando Regional contract contributed to the increase in operating margin as a result of economies of scale associated with higher utilization and redeployment of existing resources.

Payroll-related expense as a percentage of net revenue increased from 52.4 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 53.5 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily due to payroll efficiencies achieved associated with the Orlando Regional Medical Center contract, partially offset by an increase in headcount related to our new Salem, Oregon operation. Other operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased from 36.0 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2005 to 33.5 percent during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily driven by a $1.1 million decrease in general liability insurance costs, of which $0.7 million related to switching to the City of San Diego’s general liability insurance policy and decreases in other miscellaneous operating costs, none of which were individually significant, partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in first-responder fees and a $0.4 million increase in fuel costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity needs are primarily to service long-term debt and fund working capital requirements, capital expenditures and business development activities. Our ability to generate cash from operating activities is subject to, among other things, our operating performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

We believe that cash flow from operations coupled with existing cash balances and funds available through our $20.0 million Revolving Credit Facility and $45.0 million Letter of Credit Facility will be adequate to fund our operating and capital needs through March 31, 2007. To the extent that actual results or events differ from our financial projections or business plans, our liquidity may be adversely impacted. See Explanatory Note and Notes 1 and 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

Cash Flow

Throughout the year, we periodically experience significant outflows of cash for debt service, insurance premiums, 401(k) matching contributions, defined benefit pension plan contributions, capital expenditures and management bonuses. These outflows include $6.2 million in semi-annual interest payments on our 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015 payable on September 15 and March 15, as well as estimated quarterly interest payments on our Term Loan B of approximately $2.0 million.

49

Deposits on our annual workers’ compensation and general liability insurance premiums as well as self-insurance retentions are paid in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. These deposits totaled $5.8 million and $7.3 million in fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. During fiscal 2005, we began using letters of credit in place of cash deposits to fund anticipated self-insurance retention obligations. Additionally, in March 2006, we received $1.2 million of cash collateral from Reliance Insurance Company. This amount represented the remaining balance of our worker’s compensation cash insurance deposits held by this carrier.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2006 we made unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B totaling $16.0 million, made $12.9 million of capital expenditures, made payments under the 2005 Management Incentive Program of $4.0 million, funded the calendar 2004 employer match 401(k) liability of $1.6 million, made defined benefit pension plan payments of $0.8 million, paid a settlement in conjunction with a legal matter in Sioux Falls, South Dakota of $0.5 million and paid fees associated with an amendment to our credit facility of $0.5 million. These combined cash outflows contributed to the $11.8 million decline in cash at March 31, 2006. Additionally, we expect to make defined benefit pension plan payments totaling approximately $0.3 million during the last quarter of fiscal 2006.

The table below summarizes cash flow information for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2006			2005
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	15,397		$	8,085
Net cash used in investing activities		(11,312	)		(10,221	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(15,854	)		(3,573	)

Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $15.4 million compared to $8.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2005. Net income for the current period includes $2.5 million of non-cash deferred income tax expense relating to the utilization of a portion of our net operating loss carryforwards, while net income for the prior period includes the $5.7 million non-cash portion of our loss on early extinguishment of debt. Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 also includes $5.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of accretion on our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes which represents non-cash interest expense that is included in net income but does not require cash payments.

The change in net operating assets and liabilities balances resulted in additional net cash used in operations of $2.7 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the previous year. Additional cash was used to fund our $16.0 million unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B and our 2005 Management Incentive Plan payment of $4.0 million discussed above. In the normal course of business, these accounts can vary significantly due to the amount and timing of various payments.

Average daily cash deposits totaled $1.8 million and $1.9 million for the nine month periods ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. There are several variables regarding the timing and amount of cash collected during any period. While management believes that we have a predictable method of determining the realizable value of our accounts receivable, based upon the complexities of determining healthcare reimbursements, there can be no assurance that there will not be additional provisions for doubtful accounts required in the future.

We had working capital of $45.5 million at March 31, 2006, including cash and cash equivalents of $5.9 million, compared to working capital of $39.7 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $17.7 million, at June 30, 2005. The increase in working capital as of March 31, 2006 is primarily related to higher net accounts receivable and current deferred tax assets combined with lower accrued liabilities and current debt partially offset by lower prepaid expenses. These changes were primarily driven by higher operating income during the period as well as the impact of non-cash interest expense, non-cash insurance adjustments and the gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona during the first quarter of fiscal 2006.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures and proceeds from the sale of property and equipment. We had capital expenditures totaling $12.9 million and $10.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $2.6

50

million increase in current year capital expenditures is primarily due to fiscal 2006 new operations in Salem, Oregon, Roswell, New Mexico and Salt Lake City, Utah partially offset by capital expenditures related to our fiscal 2005 new operation in Tacoma, Washington. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2005, we received proceeds from the sale of property and equipment of $1.6 million primarily due to the sale of real estate in Arizona.

Financing Activities

Financing activities include the issuance and repayment of debt, minority shareholder distributions, tax benefits from the exercise of stock options and proceeds from the issuance of common stock. During the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we made unscheduled principal payments on our Term Loan B totaling $16.0 million. We anticipate annual interest savings of approximately $1.1 million as a result of these payments. Additionally, we made a $0.2 million distribution to the City of San Diego, the minority shareholder in our medical services joint venture. The reduction in current year stock option exercises contributed to a $1.0 million decrease in cash provided by the issuance of common stock, which was partially offset by a $0.8 million increase in the tax benefit realized from the exercise of such options.

Debt Covenants

The 2005 Credit Facility, Senior Subordinated Notes and Senior Discount Notes include various financial and non-financial covenants applicable to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro LLC as well as quarterly and annual financial reporting obligations.

We were in compliance with all of our covenants under our 2005 Credit Facility at March 31, 2006. Due to the restatement of the financial statements, we did not timely file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, as disclosed on Form 12b-25 filed on February 12, 2007. As a result, we received a notice of default on February 22, 2007 from the trustee of its 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015, and its 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due 2016. Any default under the Indentures that govern the notes also constitutes an “event of default” under the 2005 Credit Facility and could lead to an acceleration of the unpaid principal and accrued interest under the 2005 Credit Facility, unless a waiver is obtained. On March 13, 2007, we obtained a waiver under the 2005 Credit Facility for any defaults relating to the restatement and the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006. In addition, any default under the notes relating to the untimely filing of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006, will be cured within the 60-day cure period (expires April 23, 2007) upon the filing of such report with the SEC. See Explanatory Note to this Amendment.

Credit Facility Amendment

On December 27, 2005, we amended certain terms, conditions and covenants contained in our 2005 Credit Facility ( “Amendment No. 2”). Specifically, Amendment No. 2 permits us to use net proceeds from the issuance of qualified equity to repurchase our 12.75% Senior Discount Notes due March 2016 (the “Senior Discount Notes”) issued by Rural/Metro Corporation and/or our 9.875% Senior Subordinated Notes due March 2015 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”) issued by Rural/Metro LLC and its subsidiary, Rural/Metro (Delaware) Inc. (collectively referred to as the “Senior Subordinated Notes Issuers”), and further allows us to use up to $10.0 million of cash on hand to purchase any remaining Senior Discount Notes in their entirety. Following any redemption of the Senior Discount Notes, our total leverage ratio may not exceed 4.0 to 1.0.

In addition, Amendment No. 2 modified the existing covenant regarding permitted acquisitions by increasing the aggregate limit for acquisitions to $40.0 million and the individual limit for permitted acquisitions to $10.0 million, subject to an exception to allow us flexibility to exercise an existing option to acquire a medical transportation services entity in Las Vegas, Nevada within the next two years. The purchase option first becomes exercisable in 2006 for a one-year period at a purchase price that is the greater of $12.0 million or 6.9 times the entity’s EBITDA for the 12-month period preceding the purchase date.

Amendment No. 2 also modified certain other Credit Facility covenants including an increase in the permitted level of annual capital expenditures.

Debt Rating

On March 21, 2006, Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) upgraded the credit ratings on our 2005 Credit Facility from B2 to B1, Senior Subordinated Notes from Caa1 to B3, and Senior Discount Notes from Caa2 to Caa1. Moody’s also affirmed our overall rating at B2 and changed its outlook on the Company from stable to positive, reflecting top-line growth, improved margins, and lower financial leverage measured by the ratio of free cash flow to total debt. The ratings upgrade followed Moody’s annual review of the Company, during which management discussed our results, strategic objectives, and deleveraging strategy.

EBITDA

EBITDA is a key indicator that management uses to evaluate our operating performance. While EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered as an indicator of operating performance or an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity, we believe this measure is useful to investors in assessing our ability to meet our future debt service, capital expenditure and working capital requirements. This calculation may differ in method of calculation from similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table sets forth our EBITDA for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, as well as a reconciliation to cash provided by operating activities, the most directly comparable financial measure under generally accepted accounting principles (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2006, consolidated EBITDA of $5.6 million, including the negative impact of EBITDA discontinued operations totaling $6.3 million and a 300 basis point increase in the estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of net medical transportation revenue, declined from consolidated EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2005 of $6.9 million, which included the negative impact of a $8.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2006, consolidated EBITDA of $38.6 million, including the negative impact of EBITDA discontinued operations totaling $6.1 million and a 160 basis point increase in the estimate for uncompensated care as a percentage of net medical transportation revenue, increased from consolidated EBITDA for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 of $35.4 million, including the negative impact of a $8.2 million loss on early extinguishment of debt. Additionally, a gain on the sale of real estate located in Arizona contributed $1.3 million to EBITDA in fiscal 2006.

Subsequent Events

Unscheduled principal payment

On May 9, 2006, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Rural/Metro LLC, made a $5.0 million unscheduled principal payment on our Term Loan B. We anticipate annual interest savings of approximately $0.4 million as a result of this payment. In connection with this payment, we wrote-off approximately $0.1 million of deferred financing costs during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006.

Credit Facility Amendment No. 3

On May 5, 2006, we amended certain terms and conditions contained in our 2005 Credit Facility (“Amendment No. 3”). Specifically, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Term Loan B from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus 2.25%. Additionally, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Letter of Credit Facility from 2.50% to 2.25%. As permitted

52

under the original Credit Facility Agreement, we also expanded our Letter of Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $45.0 million, which will be utilized towards continuing enhancement of our insurance programs. We anticipate that these modifications will result in annual interest savings of approximately $0.4 million.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

Our primary exposure to market risk consists of changes in interest rates on our borrowing activities. Under our 2005 Credit Facility, amounts outstanding under Term Loan B bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% and amounts drawn under our Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.25%. Based on amounts outstanding under Term Loan B at March 31, 2006, a 1% increase in the LIBOR rate would increase our interest expense on an annual basis by approximately $1.1 million. The remainder of our debt is primarily at fixed interest rates. We monitor the risk associated with interest rate changes and may enter into hedging transactions, such as interest rate swap agreements, to mitigate the related exposure. In addition, we are exposed to the risk of interest rate changes on our short-term investment activities. We had no investments in auction rate securities at March 31, 2006.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Restatement

As discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Form 10-Q/A for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006, and in Note 2 of the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements contained in Part I, Item 1 of this Amendment, along with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, Item 4.02, dated February 13, 2007, management of the Company has amended its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. This Amendment is being filed in connection with the Company’s restatement of its annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, the interim consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters within the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. The determination to restate these consolidated financial statements was made as a result of the Company’s identification of certain accounting practice errors relating to its inventory. Specifically, the Company has determined that certain durable medical supply items were incorrectly included in inventory. Historically, the Company has counted these items as inventory and valued them within its inventory balance.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Report (the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006).

Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2006 because of the material weaknesses described below. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In the Original Filing, management identified the following material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2006.

• The Company did not maintain effective controls over the accounting for income taxes. Specifically, personnel in the accounting and finance areas had inadequate knowledge relating to deferred tax asset valuation allowances resulting in errors in our accounting for deferred income tax benefits. This control deficiency resulted in audit adjustments to the fiscal fourth quarter 2005 financial statements. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a misstatement of the income tax accounts that would result in a material misstatement to annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

In connection with the restatement discussed above, management identified the following additional material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2006.

• The Company did not maintain effective internal controls over the classification of certain durable medical supply items within inventory. Specifically, the Company did not have effective review procedures to detect that certain durable medical supply items was improperly included in inventory. This control deficiency resulted in the restatement of the Company’s fiscal 2006, 2005 and 2004 annual consolidated financial statements, the interim consolidated financial statements for each of the quarters within the fiscal years in 2006 and 2005, and the interim consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006. Additionally, this control deficiency could have resulted in a material misstatement of inventory and operating expenses that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

As previously disclosed under Item 9A, Controls and Procedures, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2005, filed with the SEC on September 28, 2005, management concluded that as of June 30, 2005, we did not maintain effective internal controls over the accounting for income taxes. As of the end of the period covered by this report, we have made significant progress towards remediation of the material weakness in our internal control related to the accounting for deferred income taxes. Our remediation efforts have included the hiring of a director of taxation, the improvement of processes and procedures used in the preparation of the annual and interim tax provisions as well as implementation of a comprehensive training program for accounting and finance personnel with regard to accounting for income taxes. Based on these actions, we believe that this material weakness will be remediated by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. As disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006, management concluded that the material weakness was remediated as of June 30, 2006.

Additionally, as of September 30, 2005, we determined that we did not maintain effective control over the completeness and accuracy of our condensed consolidating financial information, including the identification of our guarantor subsidiaries. Specifically, our supervisory review and approval controls did not detect that certain guarantor subsidiaries had been incorrectly classified as non-guarantor subsidiaries in the condensed consolidating financial information. This control deficiency made it necessary to restate Note 10 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for fiscal 2005 included in the Current Report on Form 8-K that we filed on October 28, 2005. In addition, this control deficiency, if not remediated, could have resulted in a misstatement to the condensed consolidating financial information that could result in a material misstatement to annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management had determined that this control deficiency constituted a material weakness. Our remediation efforts focused on the implementation of additional controls and review procedures relating to the preparation of the condensed consolidating financial information. The design and operating effectiveness of the controls implemented were tested and determined to be effective, and management has concluded that the material weakness has been remediated as of March 31, 2006.

In an effort to remediate the material weakness in the Company’s internal controls over classification of certain durable medical supply items within inventory, as described above, and in connection with the preparation of its Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for fiscal 2006, and its Amended Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q/A for the interim periods ended March 31, 2006 and September 30, 2006, as described in the Restatement above, the Company has conducted and completed a review of its controls relating to accounting for inventory, and corrected its method of accounting. These steps were completed subsequent to March 31, 2006 but prior to the filing date of this Amendment. While the remediation measures have improved the design effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, the newly designed controls have not yet operated for a sufficient period of time to demonstrate operating effectiveness. We continue to monitor and assess our remediation activities to ensure that the material weakness discussed above is remediated as soon as practicable. Additionally, management intends to enhance its procedures related to the performance and analysis of periodic physical inventory counts so as to properly identify items that should be excluded from the inventory balance. Management currently expects that these steps will be completed by June 30, 2007.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The items noted above were changes in internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information.

Item 5. Other Information

Our subsidiary, Rural/Metro LLC, entered into Amendment No. 3 and a related Joinder Agreement on May 5, 2006. Specifically, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Term Loan B from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus 2.25%. Additionally, Amendment No. 3 reduced the interest rate payable on our Letter of Credit Facility from 2.50% to 2.25%. As permitted under the original Credit Facility Agreement, we also expanded our Letter of Credit Facility from $35.0 million to $45.0 million, which will be utilized towards continuing enhancement of our insurance programs. We anticipate that these modifications will result in annual interest savings of approximately $0.4 million. The foregoing description of the Amendment No. 3 and Joinder Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment No. 3 and Joinder Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, to this Report and incorporated by reference herein.
