REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of Thrifty Medical
Systems (Systems) as of June 30, 1996, and the related combined statements of
income and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are
the responsibility of Systems' management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the combined financial position of Thrifty Medical
Systems at June 30, 1996, and the combined results of its operations and its

THRIFTY MEDICAL SYSTEMS
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 1996
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Thrifty Medical of Tulsa, LLC which is a limited liability company,
Northside Pharmacy, Inc., a C Corporation, and Thrifty Medical Supply, Inc., a C
Corporation are under common control and are combined as Thrifty Medical Systems
(Systems). All entities operate in one business segment providing a broad range
of health care services primarily to long-term care, assisted living facilities
and other institutional settings. These services include pharmacy, pharmacy
consulting, infusion therapy and home care services.
On August 13, 1996 NCS Healthcare, Inc. purchased substantially all of the
assets of Thrifty Medical Supply of Tulsa, LLC and all of the outstanding stock
of Northside Pharmacy, Inc. and Thrifty Supply, Inc.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
Revenue is recognized when products or services are provided to the
customer. A significant portion of Systems' revenues from sales of
pharmaceutical and medical products are reimbursable from third-party payors
(principally Medicaid and Medicare). Systems monitors its receivables from these
reimbursement sources under policies established by management and reports such
revenues at the net realizable amount expected to be received from these
third-party payors. In addition, an allowance for doubtful accounts is provided
for the estimated losses that will be incurred in the collection of outstanding
accounts receivable balances. Estimated losses are based on a review of the
current status of outstanding accounts receivable balances.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Systems considers all investments in highly liquid instruments with
original maturities of three months or less at the date purchased to be cash
equivalents. Investments in cash equivalents are carried at cost which
approximates market value.
INVENTORIES
Inventories consist primarily of purchased pharmaceuticals and medical
supplies and are stated at the lower of cost or market, determined using
primarily the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment are on the basis of cost. Depreciation (including
amortization of capital leased assets) on property and equipment is computed
using an accelerated method for all property and equipment over the estimated
useful lives of the assets or lease period, whichever is less.
INCOME TAXES
Systems follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109,
Accounting for Income Taxes. This accounting standard requires that the
liability method be used in accounting for income taxes. Under this accounting
method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the differences between
the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and
are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that apply in the periods in
which the deferred income tax asset or liability is expected to be realized or
settled.
<PAGE> 11
THRIFTY MEDICAL SYSTEMS
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
USE OF ESTIMATES IN PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results can differ from these estimates.
2. LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt consists of the following:

Notes payable due in monthly installments through October,

Systems' deferred income tax asset is due to the temporary effects of the
allowance for doubtful accounts and accrued expenses.
The differences between the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% and
the effective income tax rate of 40% is due primarily to state income taxes, net
of federal benefit.

PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
The following unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet
as of June 30, 1996 and Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended June
30, 1996 are based on the historical consolidated financial statements of the
Company. The Consolidated Balance Sheet is adjusted to give effect to
acquisitions completed subsequent to June 30, 1996 and prior to August 28, 1996,
and to the sale of 3,650,000 shares of Class A Common Stock by the Company
pursuant to a registered public offering in September 1996 and the application
of the estimated net proceeds therefrom as if these events had occurred on June
30, 1996, but does not give effect to borrowings of approximately $3.1 million
occurred subsequent to August 28, 1996. The Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of
Income is adjusted to give effect to the completion of acquisitions completed
subsequent to June 30, 1995 and prior to August 28, 1996, and to the sale by the
Company in February 1996 of 4,476,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and the
application of net proceeds therefrom as if these events had occurred as of July
1, 1995. The Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Income combine the historical
operations of the Company with the historical operations of the acquired
businesses prior to the dates the Company made such acquisitions, using the
purchase method of accounting. The pro forma operating results are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results that would have been achieved
had the acquisitions actually occurred at July 1, 1995. These Pro Forma
Consolidated Financial Statements are based on the assumptions set forth in the
notes to such statements.

(C) The adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses consists
of (i) a reduction of $1,012 to acquired companies' historical amounts
of compensation for owners and certain employee benefits for the
difference between such historical amounts and amounts specified in the
post-acquisition employment contracts for such individuals and
continuing benefit programs and (ii) a $1,393 adjustment to increase
amortization of the excess of cost over the fair value of net assets of
the acquired companies, using a 30-year amortization schedule.
(D) The adjustments reflect the reduction in interest expense and the
elimination of interest income, had the entire net proceeds of
approximately $67.0 million from the Company's initial public offering
in February 1996 been used to reduce certain outstanding indebtedness
and to fund the acquisitions, as if such offering had occurred on July
1, 1995.
