(1) The Company obtained its investment in MMI in the fourth quarter of 1994 in
    connection with the merger of MEDIQ Equipment and Maintenance Services, Inc.
    with MMI.
 
NOTE D -- LONG-TERM DEBT
 
     Under the terms of its 7.25% convertible debentures due 2006, the Company
is required to offer to repurchase a portion of the debentures if stockholders'
equity is $40 million or less at the end of two consecutive fiscal quarters. For
the quarters ended June 30, 1994, September 30, 1994 and December 31, 1994 the
Company's stockholders' equity was less than $40 million. The requirement to
repurchase debentures at December 31, 1994 and the potential requirement to
repurchase debentures at June 30, 1995 are satisfied through the Company's
previous acquisition of $23.3 million principal amount of debentures. If
stockholders' equity continues to be less than $40 million, the Company will
be required to repurchase approximately $10.5 million of debentures on
December 31, 1995 and $11.25 million of debentures semi-annually thereafter
until all debentures are repurchased or stockholders' equity is more than
$40 million. As of December 31, 1994, $10.5 million of the debentures have
been classified as a current obligation.
 
NOTE E -- SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
     On January 20, 1995, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
formed a Special Committee for the purpose of exploring alternative ways to
maximize shareholder value. Among those matters to be considered by the Special
Committee are the possible sale of all or substantially all of the stock or
assets of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its interests in its
partially-owned subsidiaries to a buyer or group of buyers, which may include
members of the management of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Special
Committee has retained the investment banking firm of Lazard Freres & Co. to
act as its exclusive financial advisor to assist it in considering these
alternatives. The Company has not made a decision to sell any specific asset
or subsidiary at this time.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS
 
     The following discussion addresses the financial condition of the Company
as of December 31, 1994 and results of operations for the three month periods
ended December 31, 1994 and 1993. This discussion should be read in conjunction
with the Management's Discussion and Analysis section included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K (pages 12-18) to which the reader is directed for
additional information.
 
     On September 30, 1994, the Company acquired the critical care and life
support rental equipment inventory of Kinetic Concepts, Inc. ('KCI'), a
competitor of MEDIQ/PRN, for a purchase price of approximately $88 million,
including transaction costs and the assumption of certain capital lease
obligations.
 
     In August 1994, the Company merged its MEDIQ Equipment and Maintenance
Services, Inc. ('MEMS') subsidiary with MMI Medical, Inc. ('MMI'), and the
Company received approximately 40% of the outstanding shares of MMI common
stock. The Company accounts for its investment in MMI under the equity method of
accounting.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
     Revenues were $50.9 million for the first quarter of 1995, as compared to
$40.5 million in the prior year period. MEDIQ/PRN's revenues for the first
quarter of 1995 increased 62%, to $30.7 million, as compared to 1994 revenues of
$18.9 million. This increase was primarily attributable to an expanded customer
base as a result of the acquisition of KCI. Revenues from the Diagnostic Imaging
Services Group for the first quarter of 1995 were $12.9 million, as compared to
$10.2 million in the prior year period. This segment experienced an increase in
procedures as a result of geographic expansion, primarily through acquisitions,
while reductions in third party reimbursement rates continued to adversely
impact revenues. Revenues from the Company's other operating activities were
$6.6 million in the current quarter, as compared to $6.2 million in the prior
year period, after excluding $4.6 million of revenues from MEMS.
 
     Operating income increased to $6.6 million, or 13% of revenues, for the
first quarter of 1995, as compared to $1.3 million, or 3% of revenues, in the
prior year period. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable
to MEDIQ/PRN and the Diagnostic Imaging Services Group. MEDIQ/PRN's operating
income increased $4.1 million, and was primarily attributable to additional
revenue and economies of scale experienced as a result of the acquisition of
KCI. Operating income from the Diagnostic Imaging Services Group increased
$.7 million as a result of increased volume and reduced overhead, partially
offset by reductions in reimbursement rates. Operating income from other
operating activities increased $.3 million.
 
     Interest expense increased 33% to $8.3 million for the first quarter of
1995 from $6.2 million as a result of increased borrowings associated with the
expansion of MEDIQ/PRN and the Diagnostic Imaging Services Group and increases
in the prime lending rate.
 
     The pretax loss was $.4 million for the first quarter of 1995, as compared
to $1.7 million in the prior year period. The Company recorded income of $1.2
million in the first quarter of 1994 relating to the Company's investment in New
West Eyeworks, Inc., which completed an initial public offering in December
1993.
 
     The Company's equity in the earnings of its unconsolidated affiliates
was consistent with the prior year period.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
     The Company's effective tax rates were disproportionate compared to the
statutory rate as a result of goodwill amortization and the non-recognition of
certain operating losses for state income tax purposes.
 
                                       7

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     Cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 million in the current
quarter, as compared to $4.0 million in the prior year period. While the
Company experienced significant improvements in operating income, cash
flows from operations were affected in the current period by the increase
in accounts receivable attributable to the growth in MEDIQ/PRN's business.
The Company anticipates significant improvements in future cash flows as
MEDIQ/PRN takes advantage of its significant economies of scale and market
share. As of December 31, 1994, the Company had cash and cash equivalents
of $1.2 million and a working capital deficit of $23.3 million. Current
liabilities include $10.5 million representing the portion of the 7.25%
convertible debentures expected to be repurchased December 31, 1995.
 
     Net cash used in investing activities consisted principally of capital
expenditures for equipment of $.5 million.
 
     Net cash used in financing activities consisted of borrowings of $2.6
million and debt repayments of $5.4 million. As of December 31, 1994, the
Company had $11.7 million outstanding under available lines of credit
aggregating $18.0 million. The amount of available credit fluctuates based upon
the amount of eligible accounts receivable. Based upon management's analysis of
eligible accounts receivable, approximately $4.8 million of credit was available
at December 31, 1994.
 
     Under the terms of its 7.25% convertible debentures due 2006, the Company
is required to offer to repurchase a portion of the debentures if stockholders'
equity is $40 million or less at the end of two consecutive fiscal quarters. For
the quarters ended June 30, 1994, September 30, 1994 and December 31, 1994 the
Company's stockholders' equity was less than $40 million. The requirement to
repurchase debentures at December 31, 1994 and the potential requirement to
repurchase debentures at June 30, 1995 are satisfied through the Company's
previous acquisition of $23.3 million principal amount of debentures. If
stockholders' equity continues to be less than $40 million, the Company will
be required to repurchase approximately $10.5 million of debentures on
December 31, 1995 and $11.25 million of debentures semi-annually thereafter
until all debentures are repurchased or stockholders' equity is more than
$40 million. As of December 31, 1994, $10.5 million of the debentures have
been classified as a current obligation.
 
     The Company expects that its primary sources of liquidity for operating
activities will be generated through internal cash flows from consolidated
subsidiaries and proceeds from the sale of assets. The Company's ability to
obtain cash from MEDIQ/PRN is limited by provisions in certain of MEDIQ/PRN's
debt agreements. For the first quarter of 1995, such provisions did not permit
MEDIQ/PRN to pay any dividends to the Company. As a result of increased revenues
and operating income related to the acquisition of equipment from KCI, it is
anticipated that the Company will be able to obtain a portion of its cash
requirements from MEDIQ/PRN. Accordingly, the Company believes that sufficient
funds will be available from operating cash flows and the sale of assets to meet
the Company's anticipated corporate and subsidiary operating and capital
requirements. The Company is continuing its program to maximize shareholder
value and as a result may divest certain subsidiaries or assets in the future.
Proceeds from any such divestitures will be used to reduce debt and/or for
general corporate purposes.
 
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
 
     On January 20, 1995, the Company announced that its Board of Directors
formed a Special Committee for the purpose of exploring alternative ways to
maximize shareholder value. Among those matters to be considered by the Special
Committee are the possible sale of all or substantially all of the stock or
assets of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries or its interests in its
partially-owned subsidiaries to a buyer or group of buyers, which may include
members of the management of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Special
Committee has retained the investment banking firm of Lazard Freres & Co. to
act as its exclusive financial advisor to assist it in considering these
alternatives. The Company has not made a decision to sell any specific
asset or subsidiary at this time.
