                       MANOR CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations
- ---------------------

   On September 15, 1997, the Company announced its intention to proceed with a
separation of its skilled nursing facility management, assisted living, pharmacy
and home health businesses (collectively, the "Health Services Business") from
its skilled nursing facility, real estate and healthcare facility development
business via a spin-off of the Health Services Business (the "Distribution").
The spin-off of the Health Services Business would be effected by a distribution
to the Company's shareholders of all the common stock of New ManorCare Health
Services, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, which as of the date
of the spin-off, would own and operate all of the Company's assisted living
operations as well as manage and lease the skilled nursing assets owned by the
Company.  Following the Distribution, New ManorCare Health Services, Inc. will
change its name to ManorCare Health Services, Inc. and the Company will change
its name to Manor Care Realty, Inc.  The Board of Directors voted to approve in
principle the transaction subject to receipt of other approvals and consents and
satisfactory implementation of the arrangements for the Distribution. The 
Distribution is conditional upon certain matters, including receipt of a
satisfactory solvency opinion, and the declaration of the special dividend by
the Company's Board of Directors.
 
   Due to the fact that the majority of the current Manor Care operations would
be transferred to ManorCare Health Services in connection with the Distribution,
the Distribution would be reported for accounting purposes as a "reverse spin-
off."  Accordingly, Manor Care, Inc. will continue to present consolidated
results (with no discontinued operations treatment) up to the date of the
Distribution.  After the Distribution, ManorCare Health Services will present
Manor Care, Inc.'s historical consolidated results for periods prior to the
Distribution and Manor Care Realty will present the historical results of
Community Hospital of Mesquite Hospital, Inc., Manor Care Realty's accounting
predecessor, for periods prior to the Distribution.

   The following discussion is based on the operations of the Company before the
Distribution and related transactions.  The operations of the skilled nursing
facilities should continue to have a material impact on ManorCare Health
Services after the Distribution because of certain skilled nursing lease
agreements which will be in place between ManorCare Health Services and Manor
Care Realty.  The information contained herein does not indicate the results of
operations or financial condition of ManorCare Health Services that would have
been reported for the periods indicated had the Distribution occurred on the
first day of the periods discussed.

   Following the Distribution, ManorCare Health Services' principal sources of
revenue are  expected to be the management and operation of the skilled nursing
facilities, assisted living revenues, pharmacy revenues and home health
revenues.  ManorCare Health Services' principal operating expenses are expected
to consist of operating and payroll expenses related to skilled nursing and
assisted living facilities, lease payments to Manor Care Realty and all of the
costs of pharmacy and home health operations.  The following review of operating
results includes the historical results of the skilled nursing facilities,
assisted living, pharmacy and home health segments' operations.

   Certain matters discussed in this Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking
statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995.  All of these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and
assumptions made by management of the Company which, although believed by
management of the Company to be reasonable, are inherently subject to risks and
uncertainties.  Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize,
or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary

materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected.  
Therefore, investors should not place undue reliance upon such estimates and 
forward-looking statements.

   Risk factors that could cause the Company's actual results, performance or
achievements to be different from any future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements include,
without limitation: (i) the Company's success in implementing its business
strategy, including its success in completing the spin-off of its Health
Services Business, and, thereafter, Manor Care Realty's and ManorCare Health
Services' success in implementing their respective business strategies, (ii)
the Company's success in arranging financing where required, (iii) the nature
and extent of future competition, (iv) the extent of future health care reform
and regulation, including cost containment measures, (v) the loss or retirement
of key members of management or significant changes in the Company's shareholder
base, (vi) increases in the Company's cost of borrowing, (vii) costs associated
with the planned transition of ManorCare Health Services and Manor Care Realty
to separate public companies, (viii) changes in the mix of payment sources for
patient services, including any decrease in the amount and percentage of
revenues derived from private payors, (ix) the ability of the Company to
continue to deliver high quality care and to attract private pay residents, and
(x) changes in general economic conditions (including the labor market) and/or
in the markets in which the Company may from time to time compete.  Many of such
risk factors are beyond the control of the Company and its management.

achievements of the Company, Manor Care Realty and ManorCare Health Services to
be different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or

(Registration No. 333-37599) and are also detailed from time to time in the
Company's, Manor Care Realty's and ManorCare Health Services' public statements
and/or filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Nine Months Ended February 28, 1998 compared to Nine Months Ended February 28,
1997

   Revenues increased $79.4 million (20.4%) and  $277.0 million (25.7%) to
$468.1 million and $1,353.8 million for the three and nine months ended February
28, 1998 as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in
revenues is principally attributable to increases in rates and capacity. The
growth in bed capacity is attributable to the expansion of three skilled nursing
facilities (34 beds), and the opening of two newly constructed Arden Court
facilities (112 beds). The increase in rates includes the incremental impact of
settlements with government agencies related to prior period cost reports of
$3.6 million and $6.8 million for the three and nine months ended February 28,
1998 as compared to the same periods in the prior year.

   SKILLED NURSING FACILITIES.   Skilled nursing revenues increased $58.1
million (7.7%) to $809.0 million for the nine months ended February 28, 1998 as
compared to the same period in the prior year.  The increase in revenues is
principally attributable to increases in rates (4.0%) and capacity.  The growth
in bed capacity (34 beds) is attributable to the expansion of three skilled
nursing facilities.  The increase in rates includes the incremental impact of
settlements with government agencies related to prior period cost reports as
discussed above.

- ---------------------        

   Operating expenses increased $50.7 million (9.0%) to $612.4 million for the
nine months ended February 28, 1998 as compared to the same period in the prior
year.  The increase in operating expenses is attributable to additional capacity
and increased staffing necessitated by higher patient acuity and more complex
product and service offerings.  As a result, the operating profit associated
with the operation of the skilled nursing facilities for the nine months ended
February 28, 1998 increased to $196.6 million from $189.2 million in the
previous period.  

   PHARMACY.  Pharmacy revenues for the nine month period ended February 28,
1998, increased over the comparable period of fiscal year 1997 by $218.7 million
or 143.4%, primarily due to the inclusion of TeamCare revenues of $49.4 million 
and $184.0 million for the two and eight month periods ended January 31, 1998 
that were not included in prior period results.  TeamCare was acquired in
February, 1997.

   Pharmacy operating expenses increased $228.2 million or 243.4% for the nine
month period ended February 28, 1998 over the comparable period last year.
Included in operating expenses for the nine months ended February 28, 1998 is an
unusual item representing a non-recurring charge of $3.1 million relating to
costs associated with the August 1997 resignation of Vitalink's Chief Executive
Officer and the consolidation of all corporate functions in Naperville,
Illinois.  Excluding the unusual item, operating expenses increased $225.1
million to $318.9 million or 85.9% of net revenues as compared to $93.8 million
or 61.5% of net revenues in the same prior year period.  The increase is
primarily attributable to the inclusion of TeamCare results effective February
1,1997.  The increase in operating costs as a percentage of net revenues is
mainly attributable to TeamCare's higher payroll costs as a percentage of
revenues, TeamCare's higher selling, general and administration costs and the
amortization of goodwill and pharmacy contracts arising from the TeamCare merger
($5.4 million).  Operating margin decreases also resulted from a variety of
pricing related factors, including certain third party reimbursement reductions
and changes in customer base.

   ASSISTED LIVING BUSINESS.  Assisted living revenues increased by $14.2
million or 26.4% for the nine month period ended February 28, 1998 from $53.8
million for the same period last year due primarily to capacity ($4.7 million),
rate ($5.9 million) and occupancy ($3.7 million) increases. The increases in
capacity are partially attributable to the openings of two 56-unit Arden Courts
facilities in Georgia and Maryland.

   Operating expenses increased by $9.3 million or  23.1% for the nine month
period ended February 28, 1998 compared to the nine-month period ended February
28, 1997, as a result of increases in capacity and inflation.

- ---------------------        
 
   HOME HEALTH.  Home health revenues decreased $19.0 million for the nine
months ended February 28, 1998 over the same prior year period, primarily due to
adjustments to Medicare receivables in connection with  Medicare reimbursement
decisions related to the allowability of community liaison costs and required
documentation to support allowable costs.  Revenues recorded under the Medicare
program are subject to adjustment upon audit by government intermediaries.  As a
result of this decision, In Home Health increased recorded reserves for other
unresolved cost disputes by approximately $15.5 million.

   Operating expenses decreased $4.4 million or 4.7% for the nine month period
ended February 28, 1998 as compared to the same prior year period.  The decrease
was a result of a plan to restructure In Home Health's field operations and
reduce its cost structure.

   OTHER RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.  Depreciation and amortization increased $15.9
million for the nine month period ended February 28, 1998 over the same prior
year period due to increases in property and equipment resulting from additions
and renovations to existing facilities as well as new construction during the
past twelve months.

   General corporate and other expense for the nine month period ended 
February 28, 1998 decreased by $4.8 million when compared to the same period
last year. This decrease was partially due to a reduction in employees related
to the discontinued lodging operations and reengineering efforts in both
organizational and financial systems. Additionally, a gain of $2.1 million from
the sale of a corporate office building is included in general corporate and
other expense for the nine month period ended February 28, 1998. General
corporate and other expense represented 3.2% of revenue as compared to 4.5% for
the same period last year. General corporate and other expense includes risk
management, information systems, treasury, accounting, legal, human resources
and other administrative support functions.

   Interest income from advances to discontinued lodging operations decreased by
$11.1 million for the nine months ended February 28, 1998 compared to the same
period last year. This reduction was attributable to the prepayment of $110.0
million of indebtedness in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 1997 and the
prepayment of the remaining $115.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal year
1998.

          Interest expense decreased $2.9 million for the three month period
ended February 28, 1998 over the same prior year period.  The decrease in
interest expense for the three months ended February 28, 1998 as compared to the
prior year period resulted primarily from a decrease in the average outstanding
balance of the $250 million competitive advance and multi-currency revolving
credit facility (the "Existing Credit Facility") as well as the redemption of
all outstanding 9 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes in November, 1997, offset by an
increase in borrowings under Vitalink's $200 million revolving credit facility
used to consummate the TeamCare merger.  Interest capitalized in conjunction
with construction programs amounted to $4.4 million for the nine months ended
February 28, 1998 and $3.6 million for the nine months ended February 28, 1997.

     Income from continuing operations before income taxes for the nine month
period ended February 28, 1998, was $127.1 million.  This compares to income
from continuing operations before income taxes in the same period last year of

$177.3 million.  Income from continuing operations excluding the gain on 
issuance of Vitalink stock and before income taxes for the nine months ended
February 28, 1997 was $115.4 million.

          On November 1, 1996, Manor Care completed the spin-off of its lodging
segment by contributing its net investment in discontinued lodging operations
totaling $165.7 million to Choice Hotels International, Inc. Manor Care
shareholders of record on October 10, 1996, received one share of Choice Hotels
International, Inc. common stock for each outstanding share of Manor Care common
stock.  Accordingly, lodging results are reported as discontinued operations for
all periods presented.  Because the spin-off was completed two months into the
second quarter, results for the nine month period ended February 28, 1998
include only five  months of income and earnings per share from the discontinued
lodging segment.

          On November 20, 1997, a consensus was reached by the Emerging Issues
Task Force regarding reengineering costs (Issue 97-13) providing that all
reengineering costs be expensed as incurred.  As a result, in the nine months
ended February 28, 1998 , Manor Care expensed $3.2 million of reengineering
costs (net of taxes) as the effect of a cumulative change in accounting
principle.
 
          The basic and diluted earnings per share amounts have been calculated
in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") 128 for
both the current and prior year.  The difference between the denominator used in
the basic earnings per share calculation and the diluted earnings per share
calculation is entirely due to dilutive stock options.  As this is the first
period that the Company has followed SFAS 128, the earnings per share for the
three and nine months ended February 28, 1997 have been restated.

Long-Term Debt
- --------------

          Long-term debt was $555.7 million at February 28, 1998 compared to
$596.5 million at May 31, 1997.   The current portion of long-term debt amounted
to $7.9 million at February 28, 1998.

   On November 17, 1997, the Company redeemed all outstanding 9 1/2% Senior
Subordinated Notes due 2002 at a redemption price of 103.56% with the proceeds
of borrowings under the Credit Facility.  The Company recorded an extraordinary
item of $3.2 million after taxes representing the premium paid on redemption.

   In October 1997, the Company received a $115.7 million prepayment on its
three year, 9% note with Choice Hotels International, Inc., the proceeds of
which were used to pay down borrowings under the Existing Credit Facility. At
February 28, 1998, bank lines totaled $275.0 million, of which $24.5 million
remained unused.

   In June 1996, the Company issued $150.0 million of 7.5% Senior Notes due 2006
(the "Old Senior Notes").  These notes are redeemable at the option of the
Company at any time at a price equal to the greater of (a) the principal amount
or (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest, discounted at the applicable treasury rate plus 15 basis
points, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.  The proceeds of this
offering were used to repay borrowings under the Company's Existing Credit
Facility. In July 1996, the Company repurchased 9.5% Senior Notes with a face
amount of $9.9 million for $10.5 million.

Acquisitions, Openings, Divestitures and Sales of Property
- ----------------------------------------------------------

   During the first nine months of fiscal year 1998, the Company opened one
newly constructed skilled nursing facility located in California and four
assisted living facilities located in Connecticut, Virginia, Georgia and
Maryland.  The Company also sold a corporate office building located in
Maryland.  During the first nine months of fiscal 1997, the Company transferred
an assisted living facility to the discontinued lodging operations with an
approximate net book value of $4.9 million.  In addition, the Company acquired a
nursing center in California for $4.4 million and a nursing center in Michigan
for $13.4 million.  In addition, the Company sold four nursing centers in
Indiana, Iowa, Illinois and Texas for $17.3 million.  The Company also opened
four newly constructed skilled nursing facilities and five assisted living
facilities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

   The Company has available cash balances of $51.8 million as of February 28,
1998.  In connection with the Distribution, Manor Care Realty, through its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Manor Care Real Estate, anticipates offering $350.0
million Senior Notes due 2008.  Concurrent with the sale of the Notes, the
Company anticipates entering into new credit facilities (the "New Credit
Facilities") to be provided by a group of banks consisting of a $300.0 million
revolving credit facility and a $150.0 million term loan facility.  The gross
proceeds from the issuance of the Notes, together with borrowings under the New
Credit Facilities, are anticipated to be used to effect the Distribution,
including financing the cash portion of the capital contribution to New
ManorCare Health Services, refinancing certain debt of Manor Care and paying
related fees and expenses.  Additionally, Manor Care plans to offer to exchange
each $1,000 principal amount of its 7 1/2 % Senior Notes due 2006 (the "New MCHS
Senior Notes") for each $1,000 principal amount of the Old Senior Notes properly
tendered (the "Exchange Offer").  In addition, consents to certain amendments of
the covenants governing the Old Senior Notes will be sought in connection with
the Exchange Offer.  Consummation of the Exchange Offer is conditional upon,
among other things, acceptance of the Exchange Offer by holders of at least a
majority in principal amount of the Old Senior Notes (the "Minimum Tender
Condition") and consummation of the Distribution.  As a result of the Exchange
Offer, ManorCare Health Services, not Manor Care Realty, will be the obligor on
the New MCHS Senior Notes; and Manor Care Realty, not ManorCare Health Services,
will remain the obligor on the Old Senior Notes.

   In connection with the Distribution, it is anticipated that ManorCare Health
Services will receive cash of approximately $250 million and the Real Estate
Note in an aggregate principal amount of up to $250.0 million.   ManorCare
Health Services has agreed not to transfer the Real Estate Note on or prior to
the six month anniversary of the date of issuance thereof.  In addition, on or
after the third anniversary of the issuance of the Real Estate Note, Manor Care
Real Estate may not have adequate funds to effect such redemption and in such
case may seek to obtain funds through additional debt or equity financing.
There can be no assurance that Manor Care Real Estate would be able to obtain
such financing.  In addition, the terms of Manor Care Real Estate's outstanding
indebtedness may prohibit such redemption.  In the event that ManorCare Health
Services requests that Manor Care Real Estate redeem the Real Estate Note and
Manor Care Real Estate does not redeem the Real Estate Note, the interest rate
on the Real Estate Note will increase by 200 basis points; provided that such
interest rate will not be so increased unless, as of the time such request for
redemption is made, the aggregate amount of rent paid by ManorCare Health
Services under the skilled nursing facility lease agreements with respect to all

properties subject to such lease agreements shall be equal to or exceed the
aggregate Priority Sum for all such properties on a cumulative basis from the
Effective Date through the third anniversary thereof, (such aggregate amount of
rent being herein referred to as the "Threshold Rent").  Solely for purposes of
calculating the Threshold Rent, (i) the aggregate Priority Sum for the fiscal
year ended May 31, 1999 shall be deemed to be the aggregate Priority Sum
calculated pursuant to the Lease Agreements plus $5 million and (ii) the
aggregate Priority Sum for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2000 and thereafter
shall be deemed to be the aggregate Priority Sum calculated pursuant to the
Lease Agreements plus $10 million. Manor Care Real Estate's high degree of
leverage could adversely affect Manor Care Real Estate's ability to pay
principal and interest on or to redeem the Real Estate Notes and may adversely
effect the ability of ManorCare Health Services to sell the Real Estate Note.
The failure of Manor Care Real Estate to pay principal and interest on the Real
Estate Note in a timely manner or the inability of ManorCare Health Services to
sell the Real Estate Note to a third party for its principal amount could have a
material adverse effect on ManorCare Health Services and could require ManorCare
Health Services to seek alternate sources of liquidity for its operations. There
can be no assurances that such alternate sources of liquidity will be available.

   ManorCare Health Services believes that cash flows from operations, together
with the proceeds from the Capital Contribution and available borrowings under
the Existing Credit Facility, will provide it with sufficient resources to meet
its working capital needs, to finance projected capital expenditures and to meet
its liquidity requirements through fiscal year 2001.

   ManorCare Health Services' five year strategic plan includes the acquisition
of 170 Arden Courts and 38 Springhouse facilities from Manor Care Real Estate
pursuant to the Development Agreement.  The aggregate capital required to
complete these acquisitions over the 5 year period is estimated at $1.5 billion.
Principal capital sources planned to fund the acquisitions include $500 million
of cash and notes received in connection with the Distribution and cash provided
from operations.  ManorCare Health Services' plans call for the acquisition of 9
Arden Courts and 4 Springhouse facilities during fiscal year 1999.  Total
expenditures for these acquisitions are projected to be approximately $90
million in fiscal year 1999.  Additionally, ManorCare Health Services expects to
incur minor expenditures for routine renovation and maintenance of existing
properties.
