ADVOCAT INC.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30, 2005 AND 2004

1. BUSINESS

Advocat Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “Advocat” or the “Company”) provides long-term care services to nursing home patients and residents of assisted living facilities in nine states, primarily in the Southeast. The Company’s facilities provide a range of health care services to their patients and residents. In addition to the nursing, personal care and social services usually provided in long-term care facilities, the Company offers a variety of comprehensive rehabilitation services as well as nutritional support services.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company’s operations consist of 57 facilities, including 43 nursing homes with 4,505 licensed beds and 14 assisted living facilities with 987 units. The Company owns 8 nursing homes and leases 35 others. The Company owns 12 assisted living facilities and leases 2 others. The Company operates facilities in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The interim consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, included herein have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at June 30, 2005 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. The Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2004 was taken from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2004.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for a full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in connection with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Advocat will continue as a going concern. Although the Company reported net income from continuing operations of $10.5 and $8.1 million in the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively, this income resulted substantially from downward adjustments in the Company’s accrual for self-insured risks associated with the settlement of certain professional liability claims, as reported in Note 3 below. While these adjustments to the accrual resulted in reported income, they did not generate cash because the accrual is not funded by the Company. The Company has recorded

total liabilities for reported professional liability claims and estimates for incurred but unreported claims of $34.5 million as of June 30, 2005. The Company does not have the cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof. The ultimate payments on professional liability claims accrued as of June 30, 2005, or other claims that could be incurred during 2005, could require in the future cash resources that would be in excess of the Company’s available cash or other resources.

The Company has limited resources available to meet its operating, capital expenditure and debt service requirements during 2005. The Company has a net working capital deficit of $41.3 million as of June 30, 2005. The Company has $38.6 million of scheduled debt maturities (including short term debt, settlement promissory notes and current portions of long term debt) during the next twelve months, and is in default of certain debt covenants contained in debt agreements.

The Company is also not in compliance with certain lease and debt agreements, including financial covenants and other obligations, that allow the holders of substantially all of the Company’s debt to demand immediate repayment. Although the Company does not anticipate that such demands will be made, the continued forbearance on the part of the Company’s lenders cannot be assured. If the Company’s lenders force immediate repayment, the Company would not be able to repay the related debt outstanding. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related debt principal amounts as current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2005. Of the total $38.6 million of matured or scheduled debt maturities (including short term debt and current portions of long term debt) during the next twelve months, the Company intends to repay approximately $4 million from cash generated from operations and will attempt to refinance the remaining balance. Given that events of default exist under the Company’s working capital line of credit, there can be no assurance that the lender will continue to provide working capital advances. Events of default under the Company’s debt agreements could lead to additional events of default under the Company’s lease agreements covering a majority of its nursing facilities. A default in the related lease agreements allows the lessor the right to terminate the lease agreements and assume operating rights with respect to the leased properties. The net book value of property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, related to these facilities total approximately $4.6 million as of June 30, 2005. A default in these lease agreements also allows the holder of the Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock the right to require the Company to redeem such stock.

The President’s proposed budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2005 includes the effects of the refinement of the Resource Utilization Group (“RUG”) system and provides for the elimination of the reimbursement add-ons for high acuity patients. The final rule issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (“CMS”) includes the elimination of the add-ons and other offsetting adjustments to the reimbursement received, including a market basket adjustment of approximately 3.1% designed to increase reimbursement for the effects of inflation. The market basket adjustment will become effective October 1, 2005, and will increase the Company’s revenue and operating cash flow by approximately $1.6 million annually. The eliminations of the add-ons and other offsetting adjustments will be effective January 1, 2006, and will decrease the Company’s revenue and operating cash flow by approximately $2.5 million annually. The net effect of the CMS rule, once all adjustments are in effect, will be to reduce the Company’s revenue and operating cash flow by approximately $0.9 million per year.

ultimate impact of the reduction could be further impacted by additional reimbursement changes as states in which the Company operates react to the implementation of this change.

At a minimum, the Company’s cash requirements during 2005 include funding operations (including settlement payments related to professional liability and other claims), capital expenditures, scheduled debt service, and working capital requirements. No assurance can be given that the Company will have sufficient cash to meet these requirements. The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements at December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 includes an explanatory paragraph concerning the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations, is unable to successfully negotiate debt or lease amendments, or is subject to a significant judgment not covered by insurance, the Company may have to explore a variety of other options, including but not limited to other sources of equity or debt financings, asset dispositions, or relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset carrying amounts or the amounts of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. INSURANCE MATTERS

Professional Liability and Other Liability Insurance-

Due to the Company’s past claims experience and increasing cost of claims throughout the long-term care industry, the premiums paid by the Company for professional liability and other liability insurance to cover future periods exceeds the coverage purchased so that it costs more than $1 to purchase $1 of insurance coverage. For this reason, effective March 9, 2001, the Company has purchased professional liability insurance coverage for its United States nursing homes and assisted living facilities that, based on historical claims experience, is likely to be substantially less than the claims that are expected to be incurred. As a result, the Company is effectively self-insured and expects to remain so for the foreseeable future.

The Company has essentially exhausted all general and professional liability insurance available for claims first made during the period from March 9, 2001 through March 9, 2005. For claims made during the period from March 10, 2005 through March 9, 2006, the Company maintains insurance with coverage limits of $250,000 per medical incident and total aggregate policy coverage limits of $500,000. The Company is self-insured for the first $25,000 per occurrence with no aggregate limit.

For claims made during the period March 9, 2000 through March 9, 2001, the Company is self-insured for the first $500,000 per occurrence with no aggregate limit for the Company’s United States nursing homes. The policy has coverage limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence, $3,000,000 per location and $12,000,000 in the aggregate. The Company also maintains umbrella coverage of $15,000,000 in the aggregate for claims made during this period. As of June 30, 2005, payments already made by the insurance carrier for this policy year have reduced the remaining aggregate coverage amount.

Prior to March 9, 2000, the Company was insured on an occurrence basis. For the policy period January 1, 1998 through February 1, 1999 and for the policy period February 1, 1999 through March 9, 2000, the Company had insurance, including excess liability coverage, in the total amount of

$50,000,000 per policy. As of June 30, 2005, payments already made by the insurance carriers for these policy years have significantly reduced the remaining aggregate coverage amount in each of the policy periods, but coverage has not been exhausted in either policy period.

Effective October 1, 2001, the Company’s United States assisted living properties were added to the Company’s insurance program for United States nursing home properties and are covered under the same policies as the Company’s nursing facilities. Prior to October 1, 2001, the Company’s United States assisted living facilities maintained occurrence based insurance and a $15,000,000 aggregate umbrella liability policy. As of June 30, 2005, payments already made by the insurance carriers have significantly reduced the remaining aggregate coverage, but coverage has not been exhausted.

Even for insured claims, the payment of professional liability claims by the Company’s insurance carriers is dependent upon the financial solvency of the individual carriers. The Company is aware that two of its insurance carriers providing coverage for prior years’ claims have either been declared insolvent or are currently under rehabilitation proceedings.

Reserve for Estimated Self-Insured Professional Liability Claims-

Because the Company anticipates that its actual liability for existing and anticipated claims will exceed the Company’s limited professional liability insurance coverage, the Company has recorded total liabilities for professional liability and other claims of $34.5 million as of June 30, 2005. This accrual includes estimates of liability for incurred but not reported claims, estimates of liability for reported but unresolved claims, actual liabilities related to settlements, including settlements to be paid over time, and estimates of legal costs related to these claims. The Company does not have cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof.

The Company records its estimated liability for these professional liability claims based on the results of a third-party actuarial analysis. Each quarter, amounts are added to the accrual for estimates of anticipated liability for claims incurred during that period. These estimates are assessed and adjusted quarterly as claims are actually reported, as lawsuits are filed, and as those actions are actually resolved. As indicated by the chart of reserves by policy year set forth below, final determination of the Company’s actual liability for claims incurred in any given period is a process that takes years. At each quarter end, the Company records any revisions in estimates and differences between actual settlements and reserves, with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. Any increase in the accrual decreases income in the period, and any reduction in the accrual increases income during the period. Although the Company retains a third-party actuarial firm to assist management in estimating the appropriate accrual for these claims, professional liability claims are inherently uncertain, and the liability associated with anticipated claims is very difficult to estimate. As a result, the Company’s actual liabilities may vary significantly from the accrual, and the amount of the accrual has and may continue to fluctuate by a material amount in any given quarter. Each change in the amount of this accrual will directly affect the Company’s reported earnings and financial position for the period in which the change in accrual is made.

In the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company reported net income from continuing operations of $10.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively, resulting substantially from downward adjustments in the Company’s accrual for self-insured risks associated with professional liability claims. These adjustments were primarily the result of the effects of settlements of certain

claims for amounts less than had been reserved for in prior periods and the resulting effect of these settlements on the assumptions inherent to the actuarial estimate. These downward adjustments more than offset the accrual for claims arising and expected to arise from events occurring during the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004. While each quarterly adjustment to the recorded liability for professional liability claims affects reported income, these changes do not directly affect the Company’s cash position because the accrual for these liabilities is not funded. The Company does not have cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof. In the event a significant judgment is entered against the Company in one or more legal actions in which there is no or insufficient professional liability insurance, the Company anticipates that payment of the judgment amounts would require cash resources that would be in excess of the Company’s available cash or other resources. Any such judgment could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and cash flows.

The following summarizes the Company’s accrual for professional liability and other claims for each policy year as of the end of the period:

Other Insurance-

With respect to workers’ compensation insurance, substantially all of the Company’s employees became covered under either an indemnity insurance plan or state-sponsored programs in May 1997. Prior to that time, the Company was self-insured for the first $250,000, on a per claim basis, for workers’ compensation claims in a majority of its United States nursing facilities. However, the insurance carrier providing coverage above the Company’s self insured retention has been declared insolvent by the applicable state insurance agency. As a result, the Company is completely self-insured for workers compensation exposures prior to May 1997. The Company has been and remains a non-subscriber to the Texas workers’ compensation system and is, therefore, completely self-insured for employee injuries with respect to its Texas operations. For the policy period July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003, the Company entered into a “high deductible” workers compensation insurance program covering the majority of the Company’s United States employees. Under the high deductible policy, the Company is self insured for the first $25,000 per claim, subject to an aggregate maximum out of pocket cost of $1.6 million, for the 12 month policy period. The Company has a letter of credit of $0.4 million securing its self insurance obligations under this program. The letter of credit is secured by a certificate of deposit of $0.4 million, which is included in “restricted cash” in the accompanying balance sheet. The reserve for the high deductible policy is based on known claims incurred and an estimate of incurred but not reported claims determined by an analysis of historical claims incurred. The Company has provided reserves for the settlement of outstanding self-insured claims at amounts believed to be adequate. The liability recorded by the Company for the self-insured obligations under these plans is $0.6 million as of June 30, 2005.

Effective June 30, 2003, the Company entered into new workers compensation insurance programs that provide coverage for claims incurred, with premium adjustments depending on incurred losses. The Company accounts for premium expense under these policies based on its estimate of the level of claims expected to be incurred. As of June 30, 2005, the Company has recorded estimated premium refunds due under these programs totaling approximately $3.1 million, and has included this amount in “other noncurrent assets” in the accompanying balance sheet. Any adjustments of future premiums for workers compensation policies and differences between actual settlements and reserves for self-insured obligations are included in expense in the period finalized.

The Company is self-insured for health insurance benefits for certain employees and dependents for amounts up to $150,000 per individual annually. The Company provides reserves for the settlement of outstanding self-insured health claims at amounts believed to be adequate. The liability for reported claims and estimates for incurred but unreported claims is $1.8 million at June 30, 2005. The differences between actual settlements and reserves are included in expense in the period finalized.

4. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income.” SFAS No. 130 requires the reporting of comprehensive income in addition to net income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. Information with respect to the accumulated other comprehensive income balance is presented below:

Ending balance	$	—	$	—		$	—	$	—

Positive balances represent unrealized gains.

5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock based compensation using the intrinsic value method as prescribed in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and the related Interpretations (all herein referred to as “APB No. 25”). Under APB No. 25, no compensation cost related to stock options has been recognized because all options are issued with exercise prices equal to the fair market value at the date of grant. Had compensation cost for the Company’s stock-based compensation plans been determined consistent with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income for common stock and net income per common share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004 would not have differed materially from the amounts actually reported.

6. RECLASSIFICATIONS

As discussed in Note 8, the consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reclassified to reflect as discontinued operations certain divestitures and lease terminations.

7. OPERATING SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has two reportable segments: nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Management evaluates each of these segments independently due to the reimbursement, marketing, and regulatory differences between the segments. As discussed in Note 8, the Company has made several divestitures, and the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to report the divestitures as discontinued operations.

Management evaluates performance based on income or loss from operations before income taxes not including asset impairments and other charges. Interest expense is deducted in the determination of segment operating income (loss). The following information is derived from the Company’s segments’ internal financial statements and includes information related to the Company’s unallocated corporate revenues and expenses:

8. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In February 2005, the Company sold two nursing homes in Texas that were operating with low occupancy and experiencing operating losses. The net proceeds from the transactions were approximately $375,000. In periods prior to the sale, the Company had recorded impairment provisions and reduced the property to its estimated realizable value, and no significant gain or loss was realized on the transactions.

A lease for three nursing homes in Texas expired in December 2004 and was not renewed. The Company participated in an orderly transition of the operations at the facilities to the new owner.

In November 2004, the Company sold certain assets of its medical supply business, Advocat Distribution Services. The initial purchase price was $225,000, with additional consideration based on the results of operations of the business over the two years following the sale. No material gain or loss was realized from the initial proceeds. The Company received approximately $31,000 of additional consideration in 2005 and recorded an additional gain in this amount. Any additional consideration received in the future under the terms of the agreement will be recorded when determined.

In October 2004, the Company sold an assisted living facility in North Carolina that had been closed in 2003. The net proceeds were approximately $60,000 and there was no significant gain or loss resulting from the sale.

In May 2004, the Company sold the stock of its Canadian subsidiary DCMS to DCMS Holding, Inc. (“Holding”), a privately-owned Ontario corporation. DCMS operated 14 nursing homes and 24 assisted living facilities in the Canadian provinces of Ontario, British Columbia and Alberta. The sales price was $16.5 million Canadian (approximately $11.8 million US at the May 11, 2004 exchange rate). Approximately $8.5 million Canadian ($6.1 million US) was received at closing, with the balance, $8.0 million Canadian ($5.7 million US), scheduled to be received in annual installments of $600,000 Canadian ($428,000 US) on the anniversary of the closing for the first four years and a final installment of $5.6 million Canadian ($4.0 million US) on the fifth anniversary of closing. The future payments may be accelerated upon the occurrences of certain events. The installment portion of the purchase price is evidenced by a promissory note that has been discounted to estimated fair value and was initially recorded in the accompanying balance sheet at $4.7 million US. The Company received the first installment under this note in May 2005.

Proceeds from each of these divestiture transactions were used to pay transaction costs and repay debt. Each of these facilities and businesses constitute components under the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” and, accordingly, the Company has reclassified the operations and disposed property of each of these components as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

10. FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

In April 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturities of certain borrowings from a bank lender, including the Company’s working capital line of credit, that had an aggregate outstanding balance of $7.8 million at March 31, 2005. The new agreement extends the maturity date of these borrowings to January 29, 2006 and reduces the maximum amount available under the working capital line of credit to $2.3 million. The bank has further agreed to temporarily forbear from exercising its remedies upon default subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the amendment. The interest rate on indebtedness other than the working capital line was revised to prime rate plus 1/2% up to a maximum of 7.5%, and the interest rate on the working capital line of credit remained unchanged at either LIBOR plus 2.5% or the bank’s prime rate plus 1/2% (up to a maximum of 9.5%). In connection with this transaction, the bank required that a $650,000 certificate of deposit be pledged as collateral for certain funds transfer services used by the Company. This amount is included in “restricted cash” in the accompanying balance sheet.

In April 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with a commercial mortgage lender to refinance certain loans secured by one nursing home. The new financing agreement provides $3.7 million in financing, payable in monthly installments based on a twenty-five year amortization, with a final balloon payment in 2008, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 4%.

In May 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to extend the maturities of certain borrowings from a commercial mortgage lender. Under terms of the agreement, the lender has agreed to extend the maturity dates of mortgage indebtedness with an aggregate outstanding balance of approximately $23.6 million to April 1, 2006. The interest rate and other terms of the indebtedness did not change.

11. LEASE AGREEMENTS WITH OMEGA

Pursuant to the October 2000 restructuring of its master lease agreement with Omega Healthcare Investors, Inc. (“Omega”), Omega and the Company entered into an agreement with regard to two facilities formerly leased by the Company from a third party. Under this agreement, Omega agreed to pay the Company 20% of any sales proceeds received on the sale of the properties. In April 2005, Omega sold these buildings and paid the Company $780,000 pursuant to this agreement. The Company has recorded these proceeds as a reduction of the deferred lease costs incurred in connection with the restructured master lease.

In June 2005, the Company entered into an amendment of the master lease with Omega. The amendment provides financing of up to $5 million to be used to fund renovations to seven nursing home facilities leased from Omega. The renovations will be completed over the next 18 months. The annual base rent related to these facilities will be increased to reflect the amount of capital improvements made to the respective facilities.

The amendment also included provisions to amend certain professional liability insurance requirements of the master lease agreement in order to cure certain defaults under the master lease agreement.

The Company leases four nursing home facilities in Florida that are subject to mortgages held by Omega. The Company makes the lease payments directly to Omega. The leases expire December 31, 2005. The Company is currently engaged in negotiations to renew these leases, but no assurances can be given that these negotiations will be successful.

12. PURCHASE OF LEASED FACILITY

In July 2005, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase Briarcliff Health Care Center, a 120-bed skilled nursing facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. The Company currently operates this facility under a lease agreement that was to expire in February 2006. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will acquire the nursing home for a purchase price of approximately $6.7 million and terminate the lease agreement. The Company is presently engaged in discussions with a commercial mortgage lender to arrange financing for this purchase. There can be no assurances the Company will be able to arrange this financing or purchase this facility.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

As of June 30, 2005, the Company’s operations include 57 facilities, consisting of 43 nursing homes with 4,505 licensed beds and 14 assisted living facilities with 987 units. As of June 30, 2005, the Company owns 8 nursing homes and leases 35 others, and owns 12 assisted living facilities and leases 2 others.

Divestitures. The Company has made several divestitures through sale of assets and lease terminations. The Company sold two nursing homes in Texas effective February 1, 2005. A lease covering three nursing homes in Texas expired in December 2004 and was not renewed. In November 2004, the Company sold certain assets of its medical supply business, Advocat Distribution Services. In May 2004, the Company sold the stock of its Canadian subsidiary, Diversicare Canada Management Services Co., Inc. (“DCMS”).

Basis of Financial Statements. The Company’s patient and resident revenues consist of the fees charged for the care of patients in the nursing homes and residents of the assisted living facilities owned and leased by the Company. The Company’s operating expenses include the costs, other than lease, interest, depreciation and amortization expenses, incurred in the operation of the nursing homes and assisted living facilities owned and leased by the Company. The Company’s general and administrative expenses consist of the costs of the corporate office and regional support functions. The Company’s depreciation, amortization and interest expenses include all such expenses across the range of the Company’s operations.

Fluctuations in Earnings or Losses. In the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company reported net income from continuing operations of $10.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively, resulting substantially from downward adjustments in the Company’s accrual for self-insured risks associated with professional liability claims. While these adjustments to the accrual resulted in reported income, they did not generate cash because the accrual is not funded by the Company. These self-insurance reserves are assessed on a quarterly basis, with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. Any increase in the accrual decreases income in the period, and any reduction in the accrual increases income during the period. The Company’s actual liabilities may vary significantly from the accrual, and the amount of the accrual has and may continue to fluctuate by a material amount in any given quarter. Each change in the amount of this accrual will directly affect the Company’s reported earnings and financial position for the period in which the change in accrual is made.

Critical Accounting Policies and Judgments

A “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the understanding of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments often of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company’s accounting policies that fit this definition include the following:

Revenues

Patient and Resident Revenues

The fees charged by the Company to patients in its nursing homes and residents in its assisted living facilities include fees with respect to individuals receiving benefits under federal and state-funded cost reimbursement programs. These revenues are based on approved rates for each facility that are either based on current costs with retroactive settlements or prospective rates with no cost settlement. Amounts earned under federal and state programs with respect to nursing home patients are subject to review by the third-party payors. In the opinion of management, adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from such reviews. Final cost settlements, if any, are recorded when objectively determinable, generally within three years of the close of a reimbursement year depending upon the timing of appeals and third-party settlement reviews or audits.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated utilizing current agings of accounts receivable, historical collections data and other factors. Management monitors these factors and determines the estimated provision for doubtful accounts. Historical bad debts have generally resulted from uncollectible private balances, some uncollectible coinsurance and deductibles and other factors. Receivables that are deemed to be uncollectible are written off. The allowance for doubtful accounts balance is assessed on a quarterly basis, with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified.

Self-Insurance Reserves

Self-insurance reserves primarily represent the accrual for self insured risks associated with general and professional liability claims, employee health insurance and workers compensation. The self insurance reserves include estimates of liability for incurred but not reported claims, estimates of liability for reported but unresolved claims, actual liabilities related to settlements, including settlements to be paid over time, and estimates of legal costs incurred and expected to be incurred. The Company’s policy with respect to a significant portion of the general and professional liability claims is to use a third-party actuary to support the estimates recorded for the development of known claims and incurred but unreported claims. The Company’s health insurance reserve is based on known claims incurred and an estimate of incurred but unreported claims determined by an analysis of historical claims paid. The Company’s workers compensation reserve relates to periods of self insurance prior to May 1997 and a high deductible policy issued July 1, 2002 through June 30, 2003 covering most of the Company’s employees in

the United States. The reserve for workers compensation self insurance prior to May 1997 consists only of known claims incurred and the reserve is based on an estimate of the future costs to be incurred for the known claims. The reserve for the high deductible policy issued July 1, 2002 is based on known claims incurred and an estimate of incurred but not reported claims determined by an analysis of historical claims incurred. Expected insurance coverages are reflected as a reduction of the reserves.

Because the Company anticipates that its actual liability for existing and anticipated claims will exceed the Company’s limited professional liability insurance coverage, the Company has recorded total liabilities for reported professional liability claims and estimates for incurred but unreported claims of $34.5 million as of June 30, 2005. The Company does not have cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof.

The Company’s self insurance reserves are assessed on a quarterly basis based on currently available information, with changes in estimated losses and effects of settlements being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. The amounts recorded for professional and general liability claims are adjusted for revisions in estimates and differences between actual settlements and reserves as determined each period with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. Any increase in the accrual decreases income in the period, and any reduction in the accrual increases income during the period.

The Company retains a third-party actuarial firm to estimate the appropriate accrual for incurred professional liability claims. The actuarial estimate represents the ultimate cost for all professional liability claims incurred in a period and includes estimates for both claims reported and claims incurred but not reported. All losses are projected on an undiscounted basis.

The Company provides the actuary information with regard to historical losses incurred by the Company for professional liability claims. The actuary uses losses covering a 10 year period as the basis for estimates. Based on this historical data, the actuary develops estimates of the average cost per claim and the frequency of claims per occupied bed. The average cost per claim includes legal and other expenses incurred. These averages are used to generate the initial estimate of the ultimate professional liability cost for a given period in relation to the Company’s occupancy for that period.

The actuary evaluates claims and potential claims incurred for periods beginning March 9, 2000. Prior to that time, the Company had adequate insurance in place to cover claims on a claims-incurred basis without significant uninsured risk to the Company. Beginning with the March 9, 2000 policy period, insurance coverage was on a claims made basis. See “Insurance - Professional Liability and Other Liability Insurance” for a description of the Company’s insurance coverage.

On a quarterly basis, as claims are reported and lawsuits filed, the Company obtains reports of claims incurred by the Company from insurers and a third party claims administrator. These reports contain information relevant to the liability actually incurred to date with that claim as well as the third-party administrator’s estimate of the anticipated total cost of the claim (this estimate is initially developed based on the third-party administrator’s initial review of the facts giving rise to the claim). This information is reviewed by management and provided to the

actuary. The actuary uses this information to determine the timing of claims reporting and the development of reserves, and compares the information obtained to its original estimates of liability based on the average-frequency and cost-per-claim methodology. Based on the actual claim information obtained and on estimates regarding the number and cost of additional claims anticipated in the future, the reserve estimate for a particular period may be revised upward or downward on a quarterly basis. Thus, the accrual for older periods is determined by using currently-known information to adjust the initial reserve that was created almost exclusively by the “frequency times severity” methodology. For information regarding the amount of accrual by period, see “Insurance — Reserve for Estimated Self-Insured Professional Liability Claims.”

Any estimate of the Company’s exposure for professional liability claims is inherently uncertain. Some key factors that could lead to differences between amounts estimated and the ultimate amount of any loss are addressed below. One of the key assumptions in the actuarial analysis is that historical losses provide an accurate forecast of future losses. The loss data is developed from ten years of historical data, and includes losses incurred in periods with significant insurance coverage. The Company’s ability to pay may limit losses in periods of lower insurance or self insurance. The Company’s ability to pay in the future is not considered in the actuarial estimates. Changes in legislation such as tort reform may affect the severity and frequency of claims incurred in future periods. Changes in risk management practices may also affect the frequency of future claims.

Another key assumption is the limit of claims to a maximum of $4.5 million. The actuary has selected this limit based on the Company’s historical data. While most of the Company’s claims have been for amounts less than the $4.5 million, there have been claims at higher amounts, and there may be claims above this level in the future. The facts and circumstances of each claim vary significantly, and the amount of ultimate liability for an individual claim may vary due to many factors, including whether the case can be settled by agreement, the quality of legal representation, the individual jurisdiction in which the claim is pending, and the views of the particular judge or jury deciding the case. To date, the Company has not experienced an uninsured loss in excess of this limit. Management’s policy is to review the actuary report and assumptions each quarter. In the event that management believes it has incurred a loss in excess of this limit, an adjustment to the reserves determined by the actuary would be necessary.

Management believes that the use of actuarial methods that are based on the expected frequency of claims and their average severity over a long period of time, based on historical trends and adjusted quarterly based on known claim development information, provides a valid and reasonable method to estimate its liability for professional and general liability claims. Management also believes that expertise in actuarial methodologies is required to estimate liabilities using this methodology and thus employs a third-party actuary to provide this service. Because of the difficulties discussed above, any estimate of the Company’s professional liability claims is inherently uncertain and therefore actual professional liability costs may differ materially from the accrual, regardless of the assumptions or methodology used. Professional liability costs are material to the Company’s financial position, and differences between estimates and the ultimate amount of loss may cause a material fluctuation in the Company’s reported results of operations. The liability recorded at June 30, 2005, was $34.5 million, compared to current assets of $27.3 million and total assets of $73.3 million. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, the Company’s professional liability expense was a negative $5.8 million and a negative $4.7 million, respectively, representing net benefits resulting from downward revisions in previous estimates. These amounts are material in relation to the

Company’s reported net income from continuing operations for the related six month periods of $10.5 million and $8.1 million, respectively.

While each quarterly adjustment to the recorded liability for professional liability claims affects reported income, these changes do not directly affect the Company’s cash position because the accrual for these liabilities is not funded. The Company does not have cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof. In the event a significant judgment is entered against the Company in one or more of these legal actions in which there is no or insufficient professional liability insurance, the Company anticipates that payment of the judgment amounts would require cash resources that would be in excess of the Company’s available cash or other resources. Any such judgment could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and cash flows.

Asset Impairment

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying values of its properties on a property by property basis. On a quarterly basis, the Company reviews its properties for recoverability when events or circumstances, including significant physical changes in the property, significant adverse changes in general economic conditions, and significant deteriorations of the underlying cash flows of the property, indicate that the carrying amount of the property may not be recoverable. The need to recognize an impairment is based on estimated future cash flows from a property compared to the carrying value of that property. If recognition of an impairment is necessary, it is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the property exceeds the fair value of the property.

Insurance

Professional Liability and Other Liability Insurance-

Reserve for Estimated Self-Insured Professional Liability Claims-

Other Insurance-

Health Care Industry

The health care industry 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 health care program participation requirements, reimbursement for patient services, quality of resident care and Medicare and Medicaid fraud and abuse (collectively the “Health Care Laws”). Changes in these laws and regulations, such as reimbursement policies of Medicare and Medicaid programs as a result of budget cuts by federal and state governments or other legislative and regulatory actions, have had a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial

position, results of operations, and cash flows. Future federal budget legislation and federal and state regulatory changes may negatively impact the Company.

Medicare Reimbursement-

During 1997, the federal government enacted the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (“BBA”), which has negatively impacted the entire long-term care industry. Since that time, certain amendments to the BBA were enacted, including the Balanced Budget Reform Act of 1999 (“BBRA”) and the Benefits Improvement and Protection Act of 2000 (“BIPA”) in an effort to provide some legislative relief to the negative impact of the BBA. However, there can be no assurances that payments from the Medicare program will remain at levels comparable to present levels or will, in the future, be sufficient to cover the costs allocable to Medicare patients. Any reduction in government spending for long-term health care would have an adverse effect on the operating results and cash flows of the Company.

In addition, the CMS’s proposed rule includes a provision for the reduction of reimbursement for cross-over bad debt expense. If implemented, this provision may reduce the Company’s revenue and operating cash flow by approximately $150,000 per year once fully phased in. However, the ultimate impact of the reduction could be further impacted by additional reimbursement changes as states in which the Company operates react to the implementation of this change.

Licensure and other Health Care Laws-

All of the Company’s facilities are required to obtain annual licensure renewal and are subject to annual surveys and inspections in order to be certified for participation in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. In order to maintain their state operating license and their certification for participation in Medicare and Medicaid programs, the nursing facilities must meet certain statutory and administrative requirements. These requirements relate to the condition of the facilities, the adequacy and condition of the equipment used therein, the quality and adequacy of personnel, and the quality of resident care. Such requirements are subjective and subject to change. There can be no assurance that, in the future, the Company will be able to maintain such licenses and certifications for its facilities or that the Company will not be required to expend significant sums in order to comply with regulatory requirements.

A 2003 fire at a skilled nursing facility in Tennessee with which the Company had no connection has caused legislators and others to focus on existing fire codes. In some instances these codes do not

require that sprinklers be installed in all nursing facilities. Some of the Company’s facilities do not have sprinkler systems, although the Company expects to install or upgrade sprinklers in seven facilities over the next three years. While the Company works to comply with all applicable codes and to ensure that all mechanical systems are working properly, a fire or a failure of such systems at one or more of the Company’s facilities, or changes in applicable safety codes or in the requirements for such systems, could have a material adverse impact on the Company.

Recently, state and federal government activity has increased with respect to investigations and allegations concerning possible violations by health care providers of fraud and abuse statutes and regulations, as well as of elder abuse statutes and regulations. Violations of these laws and regulations could result in exclusion from government health care programs together with the imposition of significant fines and penalties, as well as significant repayments for patient services previously billed. Compliance with such laws and regulations can be subject to future government review and interpretation as well as regulatory actions unknown or unasserted at this time. The Company is currently subject to certain ongoing claims and investigations, as described in Part II. Other Information – Item 1. Legal Proceedings. There can be no assurance that the Company will not be subject to other claims, investigations or allegations concerning possible violations by health care providers of fraud and abuse and elder abuse statutes and regulations. Any material fine, penalty or repayment obligation incurred as a result of a governmental investigation or claim or any limitation on the Company’s ability to participate in federal or state health care reimbursement programs imposed as a result of such an investigation or claim would have a material adverse impact upon the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

Future cash obligations for interest expense have been excluded from the above table. The Company’s cash payments for interest were approximately $2,652,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004, and $1,443,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2005.

The Company has employment agreements with certain members of management that provide for the payment to these members of amounts up to 2.5 times their annual salary in the event of a termination without cause, a constructive discharge (as defined), or upon a change of control of the Company (as defined). The maximum contingent liability under these agreements is approximately

$1.1 million. The terms of such agreements are from one to three years and automatically renew for one year if not terminated by the employee or the Company. In addition, upon the occurrence of any triggering event, certain executives may elect to require the Company to purchase options granted to them for a purchase price equal to the difference in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the date of termination versus the stated option exercise price.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared With Three Months Ended June 30, 2004

As noted in the overview, the Company has entered into several divestiture and lease termination transactions in recent periods, and the consolidated financial statements of the Company have been reclassified to present such transactions as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the related revenue, expenses, assets, liabilities and cash flows have been reported separately, and the discussion below addresses principally the results of the Company’s continuing operations.

Revenues. Net revenues increased to $52.6 million in 2005 from $49.0 million in 2004, an increase of $3.6 million, or 7.5%. Patient revenues increased to $49.5 million in 2005 from $45.9 million in 2004, an increase of $3.6 million, or 7.8%. The increase in patient revenues is due to Medicare rate increases that became effective October 1, 2004, increased Medicare utilization, and increased Medicaid rates in certain states, partially offset by a 0.2% decline in census in 2005 as compared to 2004. As a percentage of total census, Medicare days increased to 13.4% in 2005 from 12.9% in 2004. Medicare revenues were 30.8% of patient revenue in 2005 and 29.5% in 2004, while Medicaid and similar programs were 57.9% in 2005 compared to 59.3% in 2004.

Resident revenues increased to $3.2 million in 2005 from $3.1 million in 2004, an increase of $0.1 million, or 2.6%. This increase is attributable to increased rates in 2005 as compared to 2004 and to a 1.4% increase in census in 2005 as compared to 2004.

Ancillary service revenues, prior to contractual allowances, increased to $10.3 million in 2005 from $9.1 million in 2004, an increase of $1.2 million, or 12.9%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased utilization of ancillary service programs. Certain per person annual Medicare reimbursement limits on therapy services have been suspended until December 31, 2005. The limits impose a $1,590 per patient annual ceiling on physical, speech and occupational therapy services. While the Company is unable to quantify the impact that these limitations will have, it is expected that the reimbursement limitations, if not suspended further, will significantly reduce therapy revenues, and negatively impact the Company’s operating results and cash flows.

Operating expense. Operating expense increased to $40.0 million in 2005 from $38.6 million in 2004, an increase of $1.4 million, or 3.6%. As a percentage of patient and resident revenues, operating expense decreased to 75.9% in 2005 from 78.7% in 2004. The increase in operating expense is primarily attributable to cost increases related to wages and benefits. The decrease in operating costs as a percent of patient and resident revenues is primarily due to the effects of increases in Medicare and Medicaid rates and increased Medicare utilization, as discussed above.

The largest component of operating expenses is wages, which increased to $23.7 million in 2005 from $22.6 million in 2004, an increase of $1.1 million, or 5.0%. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in wages as a result of competitive labor markets in most of the areas in which the Company operates and increased Medicare census. Partially offsetting this increase, the Company experienced a decrease in wages as a result of reduced costs associated with reduced Medicaid census.

Lease expense. Lease expense increased to $4.1 million in 2005 from $3.8 million in 2004. The increase in rent expense is primarily due to contingent rent expense incurred in connection with certain leases, and to increased expense in connection with a lease for one facility that was renewed effective April 2005.

Professional liability. Professional liability expense in 2005 resulted in an expense of $1.5 million, compared to a net benefit of $1.7 million in 2004, an increase in expense of $3.2 million. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company increased its total recorded liabilities for self-insured professional liability risks to $34.5 million, compared to $34.4 million at March 31, 2005. The provision for current liability claims recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2005 was partially offset by downward adjustments in the liability primarily resulting from the quarterly actuarial valuations, resulting in a net expense of $1.5 million in the period. These reductions from the quarterly actuarial valuation were primarily the result of the effects of settlements of certain claims for amounts less than had been reserved in prior periods and the resulting effect of these settlements on the assumptions inherent to the actuarial estimate. These self-insurance reserves are assessed on a quarterly basis, with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. Professional liability costs include cash and non-cash charges recorded based on current actuarial reviews. The actuarial reviews include estimates of known claims and an estimate of claims that may have occurred, but have not yet been reported to the Company.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense increased to $3.6 million in 2005 from $2.9 million in 2004, an increase of $0.7 million or 23.4%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased compensation costs. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expense was approximately 6.8% in 2005 and 5.9% and 2004.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $1.2 million in 2005 and 2004.

Foreign currency transaction loss. A foreign currency transaction loss of $66,000 was recorded in 2005, compared to a gain of $193,000 in 2004. These gains and losses result from foreign currency translation of a note receivable from the sale of the Company’s Canadian operations.

Interest income. Interest income increased to $152,000 in 2005 from $39,000 in 2004, an increase of $113,000. The increase in interest income is primarily due to non-cash interest income related to a note receivable recorded in connection with the 2004 sale of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary.

Interest expense. Interest expense was approximately $0.8 million in 2005 and 2004. Interest expense increased as a result of promissory notes issued in connection with the settlement of certain professional liability claims and other disputes, and interest rate increases on the Company’s variable rate debt. These increases were offset by reduction in interest as a result of the payment of debt.

Income from continuing operations before income taxes; income from continuing operations per common share. As a result of the above, continuing operations reported income before income taxes of $1.6 million in 2005 compared to income before income taxes of $3.7 million in 2004. The provision for income taxes was $20,000 in 2005, compared to $122,000 in 2004. The Company’s effective tax rate differs materially from the statutory rate mainly due to changes in the Company’s valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets. The basic and diluted income per share from continuing operations were $0.27 and $0.25, respectively, in 2005, as compared to a basic and diluted income per share from continuing operations of $0.61 and $0.55, respectively, in 2004.

Income from discontinued operations. As discussed in the overview at the start of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Company has

completed several divestitures, and has reclassified its consolidated financial statements to present these divestitures as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, was approximately $1.2 million in 2004, while there was no loss from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2005, as the related divestitures were completed in periods prior to the second quarter of 2005. Gains from the disposition of discontinued operations of $7,000, net of related taxes, were recorded in the second quarter of 2005, compared to a gain of $82,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2004.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2005 Compared With Six Months Ended June 30, 2004

Revenues. Net revenues increased to $104.5 million in 2005 from $97.5 million in 2004, an increase of $7.0 million, or 7.2%. Patient revenues increased to $98.2 million in 2005 from $91.4 million in 2004, an increase of $6.8 million, or 7.4%. The increase in patient revenues is due to Medicare rate increases that were effective October 1, 2004, increased Medicare utilization and increased Medicaid rates in certain states, partially offset by a 0.8% decline in census in 2005 as compared to 2004. As a percentage of total census, Medicare days increased to 13.4% in 2005 from 13.1% in 2004. Medicare revenues were 30.5% of patient revenue in 2005 and 29.7% in 2004, while Medicaid and similar programs were 58.1% in 2005 compared to 59.1% in 2004.

Resident revenues increased to $6.3 million in 2005 from $6.0 million in 2004, an increase of $0.3 million, or 4.4%. This increase is attributable to increased rates in 2005 as compared to 2004 and to a 1.2% increase in census in 2005 as compared to 2004.

Ancillary service revenues, prior to contractual allowances, increased to $20.2 million in 2005 from $18.5 million in 2004, an increase of $1.7 million, or 9.1%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased utilization of ancillary service programs. Certain per person annual Medicare reimbursement limits on therapy services have been suspended until December 31, 2005. The limits impose a $1,590 per patient annual ceiling on physical, speech and occupational therapy services. While the Company is unable to quantify the impact that these limitations will have, it is expected that the reimbursement limitations, if not suspended further, will significantly reduce therapy revenues, and negatively impact the Company’s operating results and cash flows.

Operating expense. Operating expense increased to $80.8 million in 2005 from $76.7 million in 2004, an increase of $4.1 million, or 5.4%. As a percentage of patient and resident revenues, operating expense decreased to 77.3% in 2005 from 78.6% in 2004. The increase in operating expense is primarily attributable to cost increases related to wages and benefits. The decrease in operating costs as a percent of patient and resident revenues is primarily due to the effects of increases in Medicare and Medicaid rates and increased Medicare utilization, as discussed above.

The largest component of operating expenses is wages, which increased to $47.2 million in 2005 from $44.5 million in 2004, an increase of $2.7 million, or 5.9%. This increase is primarily attributable to an increase in wages as a result of competitive labor markets in most of the areas in which the Company operates and increased Medicare census. Partially offsetting this increase, the

Company experienced a decrease in wages as a result of reduced costs associated with reduced Medicaid census.

Lease expense. Lease expense increased to $8.0 million in 2005 from $7.7 million in 2004. The increase in rent expense is primarily due to contingent rent expense incurred in connection with certain leases, and to increased expense in connection with a lease for one facility that was renewed effective April 2005.

Professional liability. Professional liability expense in 2005 resulted in a net benefit of $5.8 million, compared to a benefit of $4.7 million in 2004, an increase in net benefit of $1.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2005, the Company reduced its total recorded liabilities for self-insured professional liability risks to $34.5 million, down from $42.9 million at December 31, 2004. Downward adjustments in the liability primarily resulting from the quarterly actuarial valuations were partially offset by the provision for current liability claims recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2005, resulting in a net benefit of $5.8 million in the period. These reductions were primarily the result of the effects of settlements of certain claims for amounts less than had been reserved in prior periods and the resulting effect of these settlements on the assumptions inherent to the actuarial estimate. These self-insurance reserves are assessed on a quarterly basis, with changes in estimated losses being recorded in the consolidated statements of operations in the period identified. Professional liability costs include cash and non-cash charges recorded based on current actuarial reviews. The actuarial reviews include estimates of known claims and an estimate of claims that may have occurred, but have not yet been reported to the Company.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expense increased to $7.2 million in 2005 from $5.9 million in 2004, an increase of $1.3 million or 21.4%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased compensation costs. As a percentage of total net revenues, general and administrative expense was approximately 6.9% in 2005 and 6.1% and 2004.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $2.4 million in 2005 and 2004.

Foreign currency transaction loss. A foreign currency transaction loss of $122,000 was recorded in 2005, compared to a gain of $193,000 in 2004. These gains and losses result from foreign currency translation of a note receivable from the sale of the Company’s Canadian operations.

Interest income. Interest income increased to $269,000 in 2005 from $44,000 in 2004, an increase of $225,000. The increase in interest income is primarily due to non-cash interest income related to a note receivable recorded in connection with the 2004 sale of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary.

Interest expense. Interest expense was approximately $1.5 million in 2005 and 2004. Interest expense increased as a result of promissory notes issued in connection with the settlement of certain professional liability claims and other disputes, and interest rate increases on the Company’s variable rate debt. These increases were offset by reduction in interest as a result of the payment of debt.

effective tax rate differs materially from the statutory rate mainly due to changes in the Company’s valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets. The basic and diluted income per share from continuing operations were $1.80 and $1.60, respectively, in 2005, as compared to a basic and diluted income per share from continuing operations of $1.42 and $1.27, respectively, in 2004.

Income from discontinued operations. As discussed in the overview at the start of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Company has completed several divestitures, and has reclassified its consolidated financial statements to present these divestitures as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Loss from discontinued operations, net of taxes, was approximately $0.3 million in 2005 compared to a loss of $1.0 million in 2004. In addition, gains from the disposition of discontinued operations of $0.4 million and $0.1 million, net of related taxes, were recorded in 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2005, the Company had negative working capital of $41.3 million and a current ratio of 0.40, compared with negative working capital of $45.5 million and a current ratio of 0.36 at December 31, 2004. Although the Company reported profits for the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, such profits resulted substantially from downward adjustments in the Company’s accrual for self-insured risks associated with professional liability claims. The Company has recorded total liabilities for reported professional liability claims and estimates for incurred but unreported claims of $34.5 million as of June 30, 2005. The Company does not have cash or available resources to pay these accrued professional liability claims or any significant portion thereof. The Company has limited resources available to meet its operating, capital expenditure and debt service requirements during 2005.

Certain of the Company’s debt agreements contain various financial covenants, the most restrictive of which relate to current ratio requirements, tangible net worth, cash flow, net income (loss) and limits on the payment of dividends to shareholders. As of June 30, 2005, the Company was not in compliance with certain of the financial covenants contained in the Company’s debt and lease agreements. The Company has not obtained waivers of the non-compliance. Cross-default or material adverse change provisions contained in the debt agreements allow the holders of substantially all of the Company’s debt to demand immediate repayment. The Company would not be able to repay this indebtedness if the applicable lenders demanded repayment. Accordingly, the Company has classified the related debt principal amounts as current liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2005. Although the Company does not anticipate that such demand will be made, the continued forbearance on the part of the Company’s lenders cannot be assured at this time. Given that events of default exist under the Company’s working capital line of credit, there can be no assurance that the lender will continue to provide working capital advances.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company has $38.6 million of scheduled debt maturities that must be repaid or refinanced during the next twelve months. As a result of these maturities, covenant non-compliance and other cross-default provisions, the Company has classified a total of $43.9 million of debt as current liabilities as of June 30, 2005.

date of these borrowings to January 29, 2006 and reduces the maximum amount available under the working capital line of credit to $2.3 million. The bank has further agreed to temporarily forbear from exercising its remedies upon default subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the amendment. The interest rate on indebtedness other than the working capital line was revised to prime rate plus 1/2% up to a maximum of 7.5%, and the interest rate on the working capital line of credit remained unchanged at either LIBOR plus 2.5% or the bank’s prime rate plus 1/2% (up to a maximum of 9.5%). In connection with this transaction, the bank required that a $650,000 certificate of deposit be pledged as collateral for certain funds transfer services used by the Company. This amount is included in “restricted cash” in the accompanying balance sheet.

The existing events of default under the Company’s debt agreements could lead to actions by the lenders that could result in an event of default under the Company’s lease agreements covering a majority of its nursing facilities. Should such a default occur in the related lease agreements, the lessor would have the right to terminate the lease agreements and assume operating rights with respect to the leased properties. The net book value of property and equipment, including leasehold improvements, related to these facilities total approximately $4.6 million as of June 30, 2005. A default in these lease agreements would also give the holder of the Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock the right to require the Company to redeem those shares.

If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow from its operations, is unable to successfully negotiate debt or lease amendments, or is subject to a significant judgment not covered by insurance, the Company may have to explore a variety of other options, including but not limited to other sources of equity or debt financings, asset dispositions, or relief under the United States Bankruptcy Code. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset carrying amounts or the amounts of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The report of the independent registered public accounting firm on the Company’s financial statements at December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 includes a paragraph with regards to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As of June 30, 2005, and for the six months then ended, the Company had no borrowings under its working capital line of credit. The maximum outstanding balance of the working capital line of credit is $2.3 million. There are certain limitations based on borrowing base restrictions. The working capital line of credit matures in January 2006 with interest at either LIBOR plus 2.5% or the bank’s prime rate plus 0.50% (up to a maximum of 9.5%). Given that events of default exist under the Company’s debt agreements, no assurance can be given that the bank will allow the Company to draw under its working capital line of credit. At a minimum, the Company’s cash requirements during 2005 include funding operations (including potential payments related to professional liability

claims), capital expenditures, scheduled debt service, and working capital requirements. No assurance can be given that the Company will have sufficient cash to meet these requirements.

The Company has numerous pending liability claims, disputes and legal actions for professional liability and other related issues. The Company has limited, and sometimes no, professional liability insurance with respect to many of these claims. In the event a significant judgment is entered against the Company in one or more of these legal actions in which there is no or insufficient professional liability insurance, the Company does not anticipate that it will have the ability to pay such a judgment or judgments. As of June 30, 2005, future committed settlements total $2.0 million over the next twelve months, and $2.9 million in total. Certain of these commitments have been evidenced by promissory notes which have been included with debt in the accompanying balance sheet. Additionally, payments made or due in connection with settlement of disputed claims could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due.

Net cash provided by operating activities of continuing operations totaled $3.4 million and $4.8 million in the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. These amounts primarily represent the cash flows from net operations plus changes in non-cash components of operations and by working capital changes. Discontinued operations used cash of $59,000 and $189,000 in the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively.

Investing activities used cash of $0.8 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2005, and provided cash of $4.2 million in the six month period ended June 30, 2004. These amounts primarily represent purchases of property plant and equipment, and in 2004 include proceeds from the sale of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary. The Company has used between $2.5 million and $4.0 million for capital expenditures of continuing operations in the three calendar years ending December 31, 2004. Substantially all such expenditures were for facility improvements and equipment, which were financed principally through working capital. For the year ending December 31, 2005, the Company anticipates that capital expenditures for improvements and equipment for its existing facility operations will be approximately $4.0 million.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $2.3 million and $6.2 million in the six month periods ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The net cash used in financing activities primarily represents net repayments of debt. Proceeds from the sale of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary in 2004 were used to pay debt.

Receivables

The Company’s operations could be adversely affected if it experiences significant delays in reimbursement of its labor and other costs from Medicare, Medicaid and other third-party revenue sources. The Company’s future liquidity will continue to be dependent upon the relative amounts of current assets (principally cash, accounts receivable and inventories) and current liabilities (principally accounts payable and accrued expenses). In that regard, accounts receivable can have a significant impact on the Company’s liquidity. Continued efforts by governmental and third-party payors to contain or reduce the acceleration of costs by monitoring reimbursement rates, by increasing medical review of bills for services, or by negotiating reduced contract rates, as well as any delay by the Company in the processing of its invoices, could adversely affect the Company’s liquidity and results of operations.

Accounts receivable of continuing operations attributable to the provision of patient and resident services at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004 totaled $18.5 million and $17.6 million, respectively, representing approximately 32 and 30 days revenue in accounts receivable, respectively. The allowance for bad debt was $1.9 million and $1.7 million at June 30, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.

The Company continually evaluates the adequacy of its bad debt reserves based on patient mix trends, aging of older balances, payment terms and delays with regard to third-party payors, collateral and deposit resources, as well as other factors. The Company continues to evaluate and implement additional procedures to strengthen its collection efforts and reduce the incidence of uncollectible accounts.

Stock Exchange

The Company’s stock is quoted on the NASD’s OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol AVCA.

Inflation

Management does not believe that the Company’s operations have been materially affected by inflation. The Company expects salary and wage increases for its skilled staff to continue to be higher than average salary and wage increases, as is common in the health care industry.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets — An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. This Statement amends APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Non-monetary Transactions. The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of non-monetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The provisions of SFAS 153 are effective for non-monetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted SFAS 153 beginning July 1, 2005. The future effect of SFAS 153 on the Company’s financial statements will depend on whether the Company enters into certain non-monetary transactions. The Company, however, does not expect the adoption of this Statement to have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. SFAS 123R requires that the compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. That cost will be measured based on the fair value of the equity or liability instruments issued. The Company will be required to apply this Statement beginning January 1, 2006. The scope of SFAS 123R includes a wide range of share-based compensation arrangements including share options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights, and employee share purchase plans. The future effect of SFAS 123R on the Company’s financial statements will depend on whether the Company enters into any transactions involving share-based payment.

In December 2004, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 109-2, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004. The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the “Act”) introduces a special one-time dividends received deduction on the repatriation of certain foreign earnings to a U.S. taxpayer, provided certain criteria are met. The FASB staff believes that the lack of clarification of certain provisions within

the Act and the timing of the enactment necessitate a practical exception to the Statement 109 requirement to reflect in the period of enactment the effect of a new tax law. Accordingly, an enterprise is allowed time beyond the financial reporting period of enactment to evaluate the effect of the Act on its plan for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings for purposes of applying Statement 109. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the Act on its financial position and results of operations but does not believe that the Act will likely provide the Company with the ability to recognize a reduction of income tax expense.

In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. This new standard replaces APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements. Among other changes, SFAS 154 requires that a voluntary change in accounting principle be applied retrospectively with all prior period financial statements presented on the new accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. Statement 154 also provides that (1) a change in method of depreciating or amortizing a long-lived non-financial asset be accounted for as a change in estimate (prospectively) that was effected by a change in accounting principle, and (2) correction of errors in previously issued financial statements should be termed a “restatement.” The new standard is effective for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Thus, the statement becomes effective for the Company for accounting changes and error corrections made on or after January 1, 2006. Early adoption of this standard is permitted for accounting changes and error corrections made in fiscal years beginning after June 1, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement 154 to have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

The foregoing discussion and analysis provides information deemed by Management to be relevant to an assessment and understanding of the Company’s consolidated results of operations and its financial condition. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. Certain statements made by or on behalf of the Company, including those contained in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere, are forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements involve risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, changes in governmental reimbursement, government regulation and health care reforms, the increased cost of borrowing under the Company’s credit agreements, covenant waivers from the Company’s lenders, possible amendments to the Company’s credit agreements, ability to control ultimate professional liability costs, the accuracy of the Company’s estimate of its anticipated professional liability expense, the impact of future licensing surveys, changing economic conditions as well as others. Investors also should refer to the risks identified in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as risks identified in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 for a discussion of various risk factors of the Company and that are inherent in the health care industry. Given these risks and uncertainties, the Company can give no assurances that these forward-looking statements will, in fact, transpire and, therefore, cautions investors not to place undue reliance on them. Actual results may differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements. Such cautionary statements identify important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to materially differ from those projected in forward-looking statements. In addition, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The chief market risk factor affecting the financial condition and operating results of the Company is interest rate risk. As of June 30, 2005, the Company had outstanding borrowings of approximately $44.5 million, including $3.7 million in fixed-rate borrowings and $40.8 million in variable-rate borrowings. In the event that interest rates were to change 1%, the impact on future cash flows would be approximately $408,000 annually, representing the impact of increased interest expense on variable rate debt.

The Company has a note receivable denominated in Canadian dollars related to the sale of its Canadian operations. This note was initially recorded on the Company’s balance sheet at $4.7 million US based on the exchange rate as of the date of the note (May 11, 2004). The carrying value of the note in the Company’s financial statements will be increased or decreased each period based on fluctuations in the exchange rate between US and Canadian currencies, and the effect of such changes will be included as income or loss in the Company’s statement of operations in the period of change. In the six month period ended June 30, 2005, the Company reported a transaction loss of $122,000 as a result of the effect of changes in the currency exchange rates on this note. A further change of 1% in the exchange rate between US and Canadian currencies would result in a corresponding increase or decrease to other income (expense) of approximately $52,000.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company, with the participation of its principal executive and financial officers has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of March 31, 2005. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive and financial officers have determined that such disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.

There has been no change (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has occurred during the Company’s fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2005 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The provision of health care services entails an inherent risk of liability. Participants in the health care industry are subject to an increasing number of lawsuits alleging malpractice, product liability, or related legal theories, many of which involve large claims and significant defense costs. The entire long-term care profession in the United States has experienced a dramatic increase in claims related to alleged negligence in providing care to its patients and the Company is no exception in this regard. The Company has numerous pending liability claims, disputes and legal actions for professional liability and other related issues. It is expected that the Company will continue to be subject to such suits as a result of the nature of its business. Further, as with all health care providers, the Company is potentially subject to the increased scrutiny of regulators for issues related to compliance with health care fraud and abuse laws.

As of June 30, 2005, the Company is engaged in 16 professional liability lawsuits. Some of these matters are currently scheduled for trial within the next year and additional cases may be set for trial during this period. The ultimate results of these or any other of the Company’s professional liability claims and disputes cannot be predicted. The Company has limited, and sometimes no, professional liability insurance with regard to most of these claims. In the event a significant judgment is entered against the Company in one or more of these legal actions in which there is no or insufficient professional liability insurance, the Company would not have available cash resources to satisfy the judgment. Further, settlement of these and other cases may require cash resources that would be in excess of the Company’s available cash or other resources. These potential future payments, whether of a judgment or in settlement of a disputed claim, could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and cash flows.

On September 8, 2004, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the attorney General of the State of Arkansas setting forth the terms by which the Company resolved all civil claims and investigations commenced by the State of Arkansas prior to the entry of the agreement, including seven lawsuits then pending in the Circuit Court of Pulaski County, Arkansas alleging violations of the Arkansas Abuse of Adults Act and violation of the Arkansas Medicaid False Claims Act with respect to certain residents of facilities operated by the Company in Arkansas. This agreement was subsequently amended to settle one additional case. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company is obligated (i) to pay $417,000 in equal monthly installments of $16,667 beginning on September 1, 2004 and ending on September 1, 2006, and (ii) to pay by no later than September 1, 2007, no less than $600,000 to install sprinkler systems in nursing homes within the State of Arkansas to be selected by the Company. The Company has incurred expenditures of approximately $274,000 through June 30, 2005 toward the requirement to install sprinkler systems.

In 2003, the Company’s insurance carriers for claims incurred in 1997 and 1998 were ordered to pay one-half respectively of a final judgment entered against the Company in a professional liability case tried in Mena, Arkansas in 2001. The Company’s 1997 policy included primary coverage of up to $1 million through one carrier that has been declared insolvent. The umbrella carrier has demanded that the Company pay this $1 million portion of the judgment. The Company has denied responsibility for this liability, and the carrier has not filed any action seeking to recover this amount.

In January 2005, the Company’s Medicare Fiscal intermediary implemented a prepayment review on approximately 80 Medicare Part B occupational therapy claims at 26 of the Company’s facilities. As

a result, payments for occupational therapy and any other services on the same bill were initially withheld, and payment was denied on approximately 22 of these claims. The Company believes that this prepayment review was a widespread review of occupational therapy services and was not limited to the Company’s facilities. The amounts billed are believed to be appropriate, and the Company is appealing the denied claims. A widespread denial of claims of this type or a material change in reimbursement for these services could have an adverse impact on the Company.

The Company cannot currently predict with certainty the ultimate impact of any of the above cases on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations. An unfavorable outcome in any of the lawsuits, any investigation or lawsuit alleging violations of fraud and abuse laws or of elderly abuse laws or any state or Federal False Claims Act case could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations and could also subject the Company to fines, penalties and damages. Moreover, the Company could be excluded from the Medicare, Medicaid or other state or federally-funded health care programs, which would also have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

The Company is not currently in compliance with certain covenants of its loan agreements and certain other indebtedness. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
