MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
December 31, 1997
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
======================
THREE MONTHS ENDING DECEMBER 31, 1997
=====================================
Note:
Acadia National Health Systems purchased the assets of Physician Resources,
Inc. on September 27, 1996, and took over the operations of that company as of
September 28, the first day of the fiscal quarter and year. It did not
conduct operations prior to this date. All activities for the current quarter
are compared with the operations for the same quarter a year earlier.
Comparative results have not been adjusted for the difference between
Acadia's calendar quarters ending December 31, l997 in a calendar month end
and Acadia's fiscal quarters ending December 27, 1996 on the last Friday of a
calendar month.
SALES
Sales for the period were $186,883 compared to $195,339 for the corresponding
period in 1996. This minor sales decline was due to the retirement of a major
client and new clients not coming on board until March 1998.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Increases in operating expenses during the period were principally due to:
(i) ongoing consulting services incurred in taking the Company public;
(ii) further developing the Letters of Intent with three corporations; and
(iii) working with an investment banker towards capital financing. These
operating expenses were in addition to increases in depreciation, office
supplies and salaries and wages for additional members of
senior management, also incurred in preparation of becoming a reporting
Company.
OPERATING INCOME
An operating gain for the quarter was $1,392, compared to a loss of $7,590
for the three month period in 1996.
INCOME TAXES
Acadia is a C Corporation with no current accruals for State or Federal
taxes.
NET INCOME
Acadia's gain of $1,392 was ($0.0004) per share on 3,733,987 outstanding
common shares.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's non-trade accounts receivable increased to $612,244 due to the
rapid growth of the waivered foster home and non-medical billing programs.
These are clean secured receivables with the majority due from the State of
Maine. During this same period, the Company added $19,189 in property, plant
and equipment, principally computer systems and related equipment. Acadia
spent over $10,000 during this quarter in Corporate organization costs
associated with Acadia's capital financing and merger activities. Anticipated
public reporting expenses and planned acquisitions will place additional
demands on liquidity during the remainder of the next year. Management, with
its new principal lender, Northeast Bank FSB, maintain routine analysis of the
lines of credit and the Company's capital needs.
OTHER INFORMATION
===================
Acadia has spent the last few months of operation preparing its organization
for rapid sales growth and expansion. The Company has completely revised
its operating policies, installed a new financial management system and
recruited experienced, operational and management personnel. Additionally,
Acadia maintains its public reporting and trading on the OTC Bulletin Board
under the symbol OTCBB: "ACAD". During the last quarter of our 1996-97 fiscal
year, the Company negotiated three signed Letters of Intent with other medical
management service organizations and technology companies intending to merge
the alliances. Discussions continue with these and other similar businesses
for future acquisitions and mergers. Also, the Company is actively working
with an underwriter specializing in health care companies who will arrange our
first public capitalization.
MAJOR ACQUISITION
The Company has initiated discussions with various companies towards major
acquisitions that will greatly strengthen Acadia and its product lines.
SALES TRENDS
Trends in Acadia's existing business lines, medical billing services and
billing for waivered foster home care, are positive, with expected
growth throughout FY 1998.
<PAGE>
BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES OF ACADIA NATIONAL HEALTH SYSTEMS, INC.
=====================================================
HISTORY
Thomas N. Hackett founded what later became Physician Resources (PRI) in 1971
as the financial services arm of Advantage Business Services. In 1990
bookkeeping and doctor billing were separated as Bookkeeping Resources, Inc.
In 1992 doctor billing was moved to a new company, Physician Resources, Inc.,
and commercial bookkeeping operations ceased. Physician Resources provided
practice management, invoicing and accounts receivable collection services for
doctors offices, foster homes and hospital-based practices.
The doctor billing service has undergone several technical transitions since
its inception. In the early days the service supported physicians who wished
to avoid an elaborate business function or complex computer systems. As
computer systems became simpler and easier to use, the company found other
value added services to retain clients. This led to practice management
consulting and, in the last few years, electronic billing and medical service
financing. Many health service payers, led by Medicare and Medicaid, have
begun to require electronic billing to reduce processing costs. Electronic
billing brought the added benefit of improved reliability and timeliness of
third party payments. This improved medical practice asset utilization and
profitability. Since electronic billing requires complex data modalities and
sophisticated software procedures, it is more adaptable to a high volume
billing service than to a single medical practitioner. This was a very
successful service for Physician Resources and continues to grow briskly
within Acadia.
On January 13, 1997, Acadia's Registration Statement on Form 10SB was
effectuated. On May 20, 1997, the Company received NASD trading "clearance"
pursuant to filing Form 211 and its accompanying Information and Disclosure
Statement that commenced the trading of its stock on the OTC market during
the third quarter of FY 1997. This has allowed the Company to approach
capital formation specialists and initiate the raising of equity needed to
fuel growth and finalize its first series of acquisitions. Access to public
markets is critical, since the growth rates will be too rapid to
fund through earnings or debt.
Acadia completed implementation of the significantly expanded HEALTHPAC
software technology in the second quarter of FY 1997. This system includes
the capability of: automated patient appointment scheduling, electronic
charting features, client/server based medical practice management, electronic
billing and direct funds transfer. The technology is capable of distributed
data processing with multiple location data entry and discrete paper copy
printing, unlimited client accounts and patient census, all running on the
NT, PICK, D#, rational data base on Microsoft Windows platform. These
attributes will provide the technological base that will reinforce the
company's long-term objective as a major player in tertiary markets and a
clearing house for franchised medical billing activities.
The Company will grow through strategic acquisitions, joint ventures and
internal expansion. Our market capitalization will foster our national
marketing and sales programs. Promotion of our medical billing software
technology and medical practice management consulting services will add
additional growth to our front line business of medical billing. Many
smaller billing services and some practice management consultants are ill
equipped to deal with the changes occurring in the health care market and
the regulatory environment establishing them as candidates for affiliation.
Acadia intends to grow its business through mergers and acquisitions of
companies who's business philosophy is based on producing a high quality
product, who's management is dedicated to long term ethical growth and who's
organization and structure are complimentary to Acadia's vision of a superior
company with a superior product.
