              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS




1.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and substantially in
the form prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") in instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the September 30, 1998 and 1997
unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of
normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of results for
this interim period. In the opinion of the Company's management, the
disclosures contained in this Form 10-Q are adequate to make the information
presented not misleading when read in conjunction with the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Form 10-K for the
year ended March 31, 1998. The results of operations for the three month and
six month periods ended September 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the full year or for any future period.


2.   NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of
common and dilutive shares outstanding during the period. A reconciliation of
the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted per share computations
are as follows:

THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED 
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

     REVENUES. Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased
$64.8 million, or 56%, compared to revenues for the three months ended
September 30, 1997. Approximately 62% of the increase in revenues was
attributable to a 30% increase in the number of pharmacy claims processed
during the period. The increase in claims resulted from new contracts signed
throughout the last twelve months with new clients, as well as internal growth
from existing clients. Substantially all of the new clients utilize the
Company's pharmacy network. In cases in which the Company has an independent
obligation to pay its network pharmacy providers, the Company includes payments
from its plan sponsors for these benefits as revenues and payments to its
pharmacy providers as cost of revenues. Therefore, new clients that utilize the
Company's network will generate higher revenues than new business where the
Company merely administers the client's network. The increase in claims
resulted from strong growth in new clients and from an increase in member lives
from existing clients. Approximately 19% of the increase in revenues was
attributable to additional sales of the Company's mail pharmacy services,
resulting from a 61% increase in the number of mail prescriptions dispensed.
The remaining 19% of the increase in revenues resulted from an increase in
clinical services revenues derived from formulary and disease management
services as well as clinical trials.

     COST OF REVENUES. Cost of revenues for the three months ended September
30, 1998 increased by $62.0 million, or 55%, compared to the same period in the
prior year. This increase was attributable primarily to the additional costs
associated with the Company's claims processing growth and the new clients that
are utilizing the Company's retail pharmacy network. As a percentage of
revenues, cost of revenues was approximately 95.9% in the three months ended
September 30, 1998 and 1997.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expense for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased
by $896,000, or 37%, compared to the same period in the prior year. This
increase was the result of the Company's expansion of its sales and marketing
activities, as well as increases in administrative and support staff levels and
salaries and benefits in response to volume growth in all services. In spite of
the increase, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues decreased from 2.1% for the three months ended September 30, 1997 to
1.8% in the same period in 1998 as the result of greater economies of scale and
due to the increase in revenues associated with the Company's claims processing
services. Additional revenues generated by clients utilizing the Company's
network pharmacy providers typically do not result in an increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses.

     INTEREST INCOME AND INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest income, net of interest
expense, for the three months ended September 30, 1998 increased $5,000
compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company incurred no interest
expense in the three months ended September 30, 1998 since the Company had no
outstanding indebtedness during the period.

     INCOME TAXES. For the three months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 the
Company recorded income tax expense based upon an estimated, effective tax rate
of 38%.

     NET INCOME PER SHARE. The Company reported diluted net income per share of
$.27 per share for the three months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $.17
per share for the same period in the prior year. The weighted average shares
outstanding were 11.3 million and 11.5 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The increase in the weighted average
shares resulted primarily from the increase in the Company's stock price which
has resulted in more options and warrants becoming dilutive securities. (See
Note 2 for calculation.)

SIX MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED 
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

     REVENUES. Revenues for the six months ended September 30, 1998 increased
$149.5 million, or 76%, compared to revenues for the six months ended September
30, 1997. Approximately 71% of the increase in revenues was attributable to a
33% increase in the number of pharmacy claims processed during the period. The
increase in claims resulted from new contracts signed throughout the last
twelve months with new clients, as well as internal growth from existing
clients. Substantially all of the new clients utilize the Company's pharmacy
network. In cases in which the Company has an independent obligation to pay its
network pharmacy providers, the Company includes payments from its plan
sponsors for these benefits as revenues and payments to its pharmacy providers
as cost of revenues. Therefore, new clients that utilize the Company's network
will generate higher revenues than new business where the Company merely
administers the client's network. The increase in claims resulted from strong
growth in new clients and from an increase in member lives from existing
clients. Approximately 15% of the increase in revenues was attributable to
additional sales of the Company's mail pharmacy services, resulting from a 58%
increase in the number of mail prescriptions dispensed. The remaining 14% of
the increase in revenues resulted from an increase in clinical services
revenues derived from formulary and disease management services as well as
clinical trials.

     COST OF REVENUES. Cost of revenues for the six months ended September 30,
1998 increased by $143.6 million, or 77%, compared to the same period in the
prior year. This increase was attributable primarily to the additional costs
associated with the Company's claims processing growth and the new clients that
are utilizing the Company's retail pharmacy network. As a percentage of
revenues, cost of revenues was approximately 95.8% in the six months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to 95.6% in the same period in the prior year.

     SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expense for the six months ended September 30, 1998 increased by
$2.0 million, or 45%, compared to the same period in the prior year. This
increase was the result of the Company's expansion of its sales and marketing
activities, as well as increases in administrative and support staff levels and
salaries and benefits in response to volume growth in all services. In spite of
the increase, selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
revenues decreased from 2.3% for the six months ended September 30, 1997 to
1.9% in the same period in 1998 as the result of greater economies of scale and
due to the increase in revenues associated with the Company's claims processing
services. Additional revenues generated by clients utilizing the Company's
network pharmacy providers typically do not result in an increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses.

         INTEREST INCOME AND INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest income, net of interest
expense, for the six months ended September 30, 1998 increased $118,000
compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company incurred no interest
expense in the three months ended September 30, 1998 since the Company had no
outstanding indebtedness during the period. The increase also resulted from
higher cash balances invested in cash management programs which utilized the
Company's short-term excess cash to generate interest income through investment
in money market funds and high-grade commercial paper. The increase in interest
income was reduced due to lower interest rates in the six months ended
September 30, 1998 compared to the prior year.

     INCOME TAXES. For the six months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997 the
Company recorded income tax expense based upon an estimated, effective tax rate
of 38%.

     NET INCOME PER SHARE. The Company reported diluted net income per share of
$.51 per share for the six months ended September 30, 1998 compared to $.30 per
share for the same period in the prior year. The weighted average shares
outstanding were 11.1 million and 11.6 million for the six months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The increase in the weighted average
shares resulted primarily from the increase in the Company's stock price which
has resulted in more options and warrants becoming dilutive securities. (See
Note 2 for calculation.)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     As of September 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of $33.8
million. The Company's net cash used in operating activities was $17.8 million
for the six months ended September 30, 1998 due to the timing of the collection
of certain receivables and the payment of certain payables prior to the end of
the quarter. During the six months ended September 30, 1998 the Company used
cash of $2.9 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment associated
with the growth and expansion of the Company's systems and facilities. The
Company anticipates that cash from operations, combined with the proceeds
remaining from its initial public offering will be sufficient to meet the
Company's internal operating requirements and expansion programs, including
capital expenditures, for at least the next 18 months.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         The Company's operations are dependent upon its computer systems and
information technology. In fiscal year 1998 the Company began addressing the
Year 2000 issue by forming a Year 2000 project team. Year 2000 compliance
relates to: technology, including but not limited to, information technology,
embedded systems, or any other electro-mechanical or processor-based system.
Such technology, when used in accordance with its associated documentation, is
capable of accurately processing, providing and/or receiving date data from,
into and between the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and the years 1999
and 2000, including leap year calculations. In the quarter ending June 30,
1998, the Company completed the "inventory" portion of its Year 2000 project.
The Company documented all internal hardware, software or equipment that was
date sensitive.

                                     - 10 -


<PAGE>   12

     In the quarter ending September 30, 1998, the Company completed the second
stage of the Year 2000 project which involved assessing all of the items that
had been "inventoried" to determine whether they were Year 2000 compliant. This
assessment stage also included surveying all external vendors and customers
that transact business with the Company to determine whether their systems were
Year 2000 compliant.

     The third stage involves the development of code to convert systems that
are not compliant to Year 2000 compliant systems. This stage is expected to be
completed by the end of November 1998. The final stage involves the testing of
all technical systems to verify Year 2000 compliance. All systems are expected
to be tested and implemented by the end of March 1999.

     The Company has and will incur internal and external personnel costs as
well as other expenses related to this project. Although the Company is still
evaluating the overall costs associated with the Year 2000 project, the Company
does not believe the associated costs are or will be material to the Company's
results of operations or financial condition. However, there can be no
assurance that the Company's efforts to address the Year 2000 issue will be
entirely successful. In addition, there can be no assurance that the software
and systems of other companies from which the Company transacts business will
become Year 2000 compliant in a timely manner. Any such failures could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's systems and operations.
