                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
     interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
     Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the
     information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
     principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management,
     all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the
     financial statements, primarily consisting of normal recurring adjustments,
     have been included. Operating results for the six months ended March 1,
     1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for
     the year ending August 30, 1997 or any other interim period.

     These statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
     financial statements, notes and other information included in the Company's
     latest Form 10-K.

(2)  SUPPLEMENTAL PRO FORMA NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Supplemental pro forma net income per share for the three and six month
     periods ended March 1, 1997 and March 2, 1996 have been calculated, as if
     as of September 3, 1995, the Company had sold the 3.9 million shares of
     Common Stock sufficient to fund the July 3, 1995 Recapitalization and repay
     indebtedness incurred to finance two acquisitions.

     The weighted average number of shares is the actual weighted average number
     of shares of Common Stock or equivalents thereof outstanding plus the 3.9
     million shares of Common Stock that were sold in connection with the public
     offering, assuming issuance occurred on September 3, 1995.  For the period
     subsequent to October 15, 1996, weighted average shares reflect actual
     weighted average shares computed consistent with the treasury stock method.

(3)  RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share
     (SFAS 128).  This Statement establishes standards for computing and
     presenting earnings per share and applies to entities with publicly traded
     common stock or potential common stock.  SFAS 128 is effective for
     financial statements for both interim and annual periods ending after
     December 15, 1997 and early adoption is not permitted.  When adopted, the
     statement will require restatement of prior years' earnings per share.  The
     Company will adopt this statement for its quarter ended February 28, 1998.
     Assuming that SFAS 128 had been implemented, basic earnings per share would
     have been $0.13 and $0.10 for the three month periods ended March 1, 1997
     and March 2, 1996, respectively and $0.25 and $0.20 for the six month
     periods ended March 1, 1997 and March 2, 1996, respectively.  Under this
     Statement, diluted earnings per share would not have differed from the net
     income per share disclosed on the income statement.

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

        THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 1, 1997 (13 WEEKS) VERSUS THREE MONTHS
                        ENDED MARCH 2, 1996 (13 WEEKS)

     Net sales increased by $6.3 million, or 39%, to $22.8 million for the
quarter ended March 1, 1997 from $16.5 million for the prior year period. The
number of customer orders filled increased 30% to approximately 128,300 orders
for the quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus approximately 98,900 for the prior
year period. Same store growth in gross sales was approximately 10% and was
primarily attributable to increased volume from national home health care chains
and managed care organizations. The average order size increased to $182 for the
quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $171 for the same period ended March 2, 1996.

     Gross margin increased by $1.6 million, or 41%, to $5.5 million for the
quarter ended March 1, 1997 from $3.9 million for the prior year period. Gross
margin increased to 23.9% versus 23.5% over the same period. The increase in
gross margin was primarily attributable to increased prices of products sold by
the Company's acquisitions to attain consistent pricing company wide.

     Operating expenses increased by $0.9 million, or 47%, to $2.9 million for
the quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $2.0 million for the prior year period,
and as a percentage of net sales, increased to 13% versus 12% for the prior year
period. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was
primarily attributable to increased costs due to a change in shipping policy.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $127,000, or 138%,
to $219,000 for the quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $92,000 for the prior
year period due to the amortization of goodwill associated with previous
acquisitions.

     Operating income increased by $525,000, or 29%, to $2.3 million for
the quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $1.8 million for the prior year period.
Operating income decreased as a percentage of net sales to 10% for the quarter
ended March 1, 1997 from 11% for the prior year period.  The decrease in
operating income as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to
increased operating expenses and the amortization of goodwill.

     Interest expense decreased by $593,000, or 98.3%, to $10,000 for the
quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $603,000 for the prior year period.  Interest
expense also decreased as a percentage of net sales for the quarter ended March
1, 1997.  This decrease in interest expense was primarily due to the repayment
of substantially all long-term debt with the net proceeds of the public offering
in October 1996.

     Provision for income taxes was $1,028,000, an effective tax rate of 44% of
pre-tax income, for the quarter ended March 1, 1997 versus $496,000, or an
effective tax rate of 42%, for the quarter ended March 2, 1996, primarily due to
non-deductible goodwill amortization.

          SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 1, 1997 (26 WEEKS) VERSUS SIX MONTHS
                        ENDED MARCH 2, 1996 (26 WEEKS)

     Net sales increased by $14.8 million, or 49%, to $44.8 million for the six
months ended March 1, 1997 from $30.0 million for the prior year period. The
number of customer orders filled increased 41% to approximately 253,800 orders
for the six months ended March 1, 1997 versus approximately 179,000 for the
prior year period. Same store growth in net sales was approximately 10% and was
primarily attributable to increased volume from national home health care chains
and managed care organizations. The average order size increased to $181 for the
six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $172 for the same period ended March 2,
1996.

     Gross margin increased by $3.4 million, or 47%, to $10.6 million for
the six months ended March 1, 1997 from $7.2 million for the prior year period.
Gross margin decreased to 23.6% versus 24.0% over the same period.  The decrease
in gross margin was primarily attributable to competitive pricing of products
sold by the Company to maintain or increase market share, particularly with
respect to volume based pricing incentives and in the acquisitioned business.

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
     Operating expenses increased by $2.1 million, or 58%, to $5.7 million
for the six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $3.6 million for the prior year
period, and as a percentage of net sales, increased to 13% versus 12% for the
prior year period.  The increase in operating expenses was due to the support
required for higher sales volume.  The increase in operating expenses as a
percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to increased costs due to a
change in shipping policy.

     Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $285,000, or 194%,
to $432,000 for the six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $147,000 for the prior
year period due to the amortization of goodwill associated with previous
acquisitions.

     Operating income increased by $1.0 million, or 29%, to $4.4 million
for the six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $3.4 million for the prior year
period.  Operating income decreased as a percentage of net sales to 10% for the
six months ended March 1, 1997 from 11% for the prior year period.  The decrease
in operating income as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to
decreased gross margin and the amortization of goodwill.

     Interest expense decreased by $695,000, or 62%, to $425,000 for the
six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $1,120,000 for the prior year period.
Interest expense decreased as a percentage of net sales to 1% for the six months
ended March 1, 1997 versus 4% for the prior year period.  This decrease in
interest expense as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to the repayment
of substantially all long-term debt with the net proceeds of the public offering
in October 1996.

     Provision for income taxes was $1.8 million, an effective tax rate of
44% of pre-tax income, for the six months ended March 1, 1997 versus $951,000,
or an effective tax rate of 41%, for the six months ended March 2, 1996,
primarily due to non-deductible goodwill amortization.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Until its recent public offering, the Company financed its operations
primarily through cash flow from operations and from bank borrowings secured by
Company assets.  In October 1996 the Company completed an initial public
offering of shares of its common stock.  Pursuant to the offering the Company
sold 4,192,500 shares of its common stock, raising proceeds of approximately
$46,000,000 net of approximately $773,000 in offering costs.  The Company used
$42,472,000 of the proceeds to pay down virtually all of its long term debt and
redeem all of the Company's preferred stock.  The remaining proceeds, along with
cash from operations, is currently being invested in short-term investments.

The above contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and
uncertainties inherent in the Company's business. The Company's actual results
could differ materially from those anticipated in those forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth in
documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission including the
prospectus dated October 9, 1996, related to the Company's recently completed
initial public offering, and the recently filed Form 10-K.
