                                    Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                                                    (Unaudited)


1.   The Company

     The  Company's  operations  consist  primarily of nursing home and assisted
     living services,  infusion therapy and other medical services. Nursing home
     and assisted living services include the ownership,  leasing, operation and
     management  of  nursing  homes and  assisted  living  facilities.  Infusion
     therapy  and other  medical  services  include  enteral  and other  medical
     services,  primarily for patients in nursing  homes,  and  intravenous  and
     other infusion therapies for patients at home and in nursing homes.

     The Company is subject to certain  risks and  uncertainties  as a result of
     changes that could occur in the healthcare industry, including Medicare and
     Medicaid reimbursement rates.

     On December 1, the Company  acquired a 75% interest in a limited  liability
     company to provide  institutional  pharmacy  services  (LLC).  The minority
     interest  is  held  by  Bach's  Drug  Store,  a  Hackettstown,  New  Jersey
     Corporation  ("Bach's") which contributed its existing business to the LLC.
     The  Company  paid  $210,000  in Kuala  stock to a  principal  of Bach's in
     consideration for a four-year  employment agreement (at $120,000/year) with
     the pharmacist of Bach's (the manager of the LLC) and (b) a four-year lease
     with the  shareholders of Bach's to leasing the premises (at  $18,000/year)
     where the LLC operates. The Company has guaranteed the employment and lease
     agreements.

2.   Basis of Presentation

     The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  Kuala
     Healthcare,  Inc,  ("Kuala")  and its  subsidiaries  (the  "Company").  All
     significant  intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in
     consolidation.

     Kuala owns 58% of the common stock of Infu-Tech, Inc. ("Infu-Tech"); 42% of
     the common stock of Infu-Tech is publicly traded.  The minority interest in
     the consolidated financial statements represents the minority stockholders'
     proportionate share of equity in Infu-Tech.

     The  accompanying  unaudited  consolidated  financial  statements have been
     prepared in accordance with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
     interim financial information and pursuant to the 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 management,
     all  adjustments,  consisting  of  normal  recurring  accrual  adjustments,
     considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

     Operating results for the six month period ended December 31, 1997, are not
     necessarily indicative of the result that may be expected for year end June
     30, 1998.

     These financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the
     Company's  audited  financial  statements and notes thereto included in the
     Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 1997.

3.   Cash and Cash Equivalents

     Cash and cash  equivalents  at December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1997 includes
     $93,000 and $512,000  respectively,  held by  Infu-Tech.  A management  and
     non-competition  agreement  between  Continental  and Infu-Tech,  which, as
     extended,  expires  September 30, 2000,  prohibits  Infu-Tech  from lending
     money to (or borrowing money from) Kuala.

     The Company  classifies all highly liquid  investments  with  maturities of
     three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents.

4.   Earnings Per Share

     Options  excluded from the computation of diluted  earnings per share since
     such options would not have a diluted effect as the exercise price is above
     the average market price for the period were as follows:

5.   Subsequent Event

     On January 27, 1998  shareholders  approved was granted for a one-for three
     reverse split of its common stock.  In conjunction  with the reverse split,
     the  Company has changed  its name to Kuala  Healthcare,  Inc.  and will be
     listed on the Nasdaq Small Cap market under the symbol "KUAL".

     Common  share and per share  amounts  in the  financial  statements  do not
     reflect the impact of the reverse stock split.  If restated for the reverse
     split,  figures  in this  filing  for the six  month  periods  would  be as
     follows:

Item 2.  Management's  Discussion  and Analysis of Financial  Condition and
         Results of Operations.

The following  discussion  should be read in conjunction  with the  Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes thereto.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three  Months  ended  December  31, 1997  Compared  with Three Months Ended
December 31, 1996

Total  revenues  were  $1,455,000,  or 8% lower  for 1997  compared  with  1996,
primarily due to the sale of two facilities  whose revenues were included in the
prior period and slightly lower occupancy at the existing facilities.

Infusion  therapy and other medical services  revenues  increased by $860,000 or
13%, from $6,724,000 in 1996 to $7,584,000 in 1997.

Personnel  costs  decreased by  $1,759,000,  or 20%. The  reduction is primarily
attributable  to the sale of two facilities in June 1997,  together with overall
reduction in staff in the nursing home division.

Costs of medical and  nutritional  products sold to patients and other customers
increased by $1,129,000  or 38%, from  $2,971,000 in 1996 to $4,100,000 in 1997.
As a percentage of infusion therapy and other medical services revenues, medical
and nutritional  product costs were 54% in 1997 and 44% in 1996. The increase in
the medical and nutritional  product costs as a percentage of sales is primarily
attributable to Infu-Tech's  increased revenues associated with Ceredase, a high
cost drug, a capitation  agreement,  and margin  reductions  from operating in a
managed care environment.

Health care and lodging expenses,  which are incurred in connection with nursing
home services,  decreased by $468,000 or 20%,  primarily as a result of the sale
of the two facilities.

Selling,  general and  administrative  costs  decreased  by $475,000 or 24% as a
result of the sale of the two facilities  partially offset by increased costs at
Infu-Tech.

The  provision for  uncollectible  accounts was 1% of revenues in 1997 and 2% in
1996.

Other income,  net of $159,000  resulted from the write-off of accounts  payable
and the  re-evaluation  of certain  accruals.  Other  expense of $74,000 in 1996
consisted  of  amortization  of  deferred  income of $32,000  and an  unrealized
foreign  currency  translation  gain of  $3,000  offset  by  $115,000  of  legal
settlements.

Minority  interest in earnings of subsidiary of $70,000 in 1997  represents  the
portion of the net income of Infu- Tech and Bach's Pharmacy  Services  allocable
to minority stockholders.

The provision for income taxes of $115,000 in 1997 and $199,000 in 1996 reflects
a full tax charge for Infu-  Tech,  a 58% owned  subsidiary  which files its own
federal tax return.

The Company has prepaid debt of  approximately  $300,000 and received a $150,000
credit, which was recorded as an extraordinary gain during the quarter.

The net income  available  to common  shareholders  in 1997 was  $26,000 or $.00
cents per share compared to a net loss applicable to common shareholders in 1996
of $14,000 or $.00 cents per share.

Six Months ended  December 31, 1997 Compared with Six Months Ended December
31, 1996

Total  revenues  were  $3,961,000,  or 11% lower for 1997  compared  with  1996,
primarily due to the sale of two facilities  whose revenues were included in the
prior period and slightly lower occupancy at the existing facilities.

Infusion therapy and other medical services revenues  increased by $1,081,000 or
8%, from $13,505,000 in 1996 to $14,586,000 in 1997.

Personnel  costs  decreased by  $3,554,000,  or 20%. The  reduction is primarily
attributable  to the sale of two facilities in June 1997,  together with overall
reduction in staff in the nursing home division.

Costs of medical and  nutritional  products sold to patients and other customers
increased by $1,651,000  or 27%, from  $6,094,000 in 1996 to $7,745,000 in 1997.
As a percentage of infusion therapy and other medical services revenues, medical
and nutritional  product costs were 53% in 1997 and 45% in 1996. The increase in
the medical and nutritional  product costs as a percentage of sales is primarily
attributable to Infu-Tech's  increased revenues associated with Ceredase, a high
cost drug, a capitation  agreement,  and margin  reductions  from operating in a
managed care environment.

Health care and lodging expenses,  which are incurred in connection with nursing
home services,  decreased by $794,000 or 16%,  primarily as a result of the sale
of the two facilities.

Selling,  general and  administrative  costs  decreased  by $382,000 or 10% as a
result of the sale of the two facilities  partially offset by increased costs on
Infu-Tech.

The  provision for  uncollectible  accounts was 1% of revenues in 1997 and 2% in
1996.

Other income , net, of $490,000  resulted from the write-off of accounts payable
and the re-evaluation of certain accruals.  Other income, net of $65,000 in 1996
consisted  of  amortization  of  deferred  income of $32,000  and an  unrealized
foreign  currency  translation  gain of  $80,000  offset  by  $115,000  of legal
settlements.

Minority  interest in earnings of subsidiary of $136,000  represents the portion
of the net  income of  Infu-Tech  and  Bach's  Pharmacy  Services  allocable  to
minority  stockholders.  Minority interest in earnings of subsidiary of $231,000
represents  the  portion  of net  income  of  Infu-Tech  allocable  to  minority
stockholders.

The provision for income taxes of $227,000 in 1997 and $388,000 in 1996 reflects
a full tax charge for Infu-  Tech,  a 58% owned  subsidiary  which files its own
federal tax return.

The Company has prepaid debt of  approximately  $300,000 and received a $150,000
credit, which was recorded as an extraordinary gain during the quarter.

The net income  available  to common  shareholders  in 1997 was  $45,000 or $.00
cents per share compared to net income available to common  shareholders in 1996
of $3,000 or $.00 cents per share.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At December 31, 1997,  the Company had  stockholders'  equity of $5,895,000  and
total  liabilities  of  $60,850,000.  At  December  31,  1997 debt  amounted  to
$47,073,000 of which approximately  $35,000,000 relates to mortgages on three of
the nursing homes.

Debt also includes a mortgage secured by a facility of $2,196,000 due October 1,
1997. This mortgage is being extended while refinancing is completed.

Other debt included SFr 600,425 (approximately  $411,000) principal amount of 6%
Swiss franc  denominated bonds which remain unpaid although they matured on June
27, 1995 (the "Bonds"); SFr 619,500 (approximately $424,000) principal amount of
8% Swiss franc denominated bonds due June 27, 1998;  $1,213,000 principal amount
of 8% notes due 1999; and $3,400,000 principal amount of 6% notes due 2003.

When  the  Bonds  matured  on  June  27,  1995,  SFr  2,900,000   (approximately
$2,525,000)  principal  amount,  together  with accrued  interest of SFr 174,000
(approximately  $152,000),  was outstanding.  Between June 30, 1995 and June 30,
1996, the Company acquired SFr 2,164,000  principal  amount of Bonds,  including
accrued  interest on those Bonds, for a total of SFr 1,122,375 and $315,000 plus
a SFr 619,500  note  maturing in June 1998.  As of December 31, 1997 the Company
had acquired an additional SFr 110,000 principal amount of bonds (with interest)
for $88,500.

The Company's cash and cash  equivalents  balance  decreased from  $3,796,000 at
June 30, 1997 to $1,034,000  at December 31, 1997.  Included in the December 31,
1997 balance is $93,000 held by  Infu-Tech.  A  management  and  non-competition
agreement  with  Infu-Tech,  which,  as extended,  expires  September  30, 2000,
prohibits  Infu-Tech  from  lending  money  to (or  borrowing  money  from)  the
remainder of the Company.

The Company in total used $460,000 of cash in operating activities.

At December 31, 1997,  the balance in net accounts  receivable for Infu-Tech was
7% higher than the balance at June 30, 1997. Infu-Tech's net accounts receivable
has  increased to 106 days sales at December 31, 1997,  primarily as a result of
continued  slow  payments  from  Medicare and managed care  companies.  Medicare
payments  have been  delayed  due to changes in  reimbursement  policies,  while
managed care companies  have  experienced  delays in processing  payments due to
their higher volume of claims.

The Company has no arrangements under which it can make borrowings.  At December
31,  1997,  the Company had working  capital of $612,000.  Excluding  Infu-Tech,
which had working  capital of  $5,395,000,  the  Company  had a working  capital
deficit of $4,783,000.  Further, at December 31, 1997, Infu-Tech's cash and cash
equivalents  of $93,000 were  $419,000 less than the balance of $512,000 at June
30, 1997.

During the six months ended December 31, 1997, the Company repaid  $1,329,000 of
debt,  redeemed  $437,000 of  mandatorily  redeemable  preferred  stock and paid
preferred stock dividends of $35,000.

While the Company continues to experience cash flow constraints, it continues to
use a combination of operating cash flow and  realization of assets into cash as
a means of meeting ongoing  obligations.  It has certain assets which can be
used for this purpose if needed.
