                     CARDINAL HEALTH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS RESTATED)
                                   (UNAUDITED)

Note 1.   The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the
          accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries and all significant
          intercompany amounts have been eliminated. These consolidated
          financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
          instructions to Form 10-Q and include all of the information and
          disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for
          interim reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
          necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such
          adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.

          The consolidated financial statements included herein should be read
          in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
          related notes contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K
          for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, as amended by the Form 10-K/A
          (Amendment No. 1) filed on January 7, 1998.

Note 2.   Net earnings per Common Share are based on the weighted average
          number of Common Shares outstanding during each period and the
          dilutive effect of stock options from the date of grant, computed
          using the treasury stock method.

Note 3.   Costs related to various mergers effected in fiscal 1997 and 1996
          totaling approximately $2.2 million ($1.3 million, net of tax) and
          $0.2 million ($0.1 million, net of tax), were recorded during the
          three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively, related
          to integrating the operations of the merged companies.

          The Company estimates that it will incur additional merger related
          costs related to the various mergers of approximately $9.5 million
          ($5.7 million, net of tax) in future periods (primarily fiscal 1998)
          in order to properly integrate operations and implement efficiencies
          with regard to, among other things, information systems, customer
          systems, marketing programs and administrative functions. Such amounts
          will be charged to expense when incurred.

Note 4.   On May 27, 1997, the Company announced that it had entered into a
          definitive merger agreement with MediQual Systems, Inc. ("MediQual"),
          pursuant to which MediQual will become a wholly owned subsidiary of
          the Company in a stock-for-stock merger expected to be accounted for
          as a pooling-of-interests for financial reporting purposes. In
          connection with the merger, the Company estimates that it will issue
          approximately 0.6 million Common Shares. Upon consummation of the
          merger, the Company will record a merger-related charge to reflect
          transaction and other costs incurred as a result of the merger. The
          amount of this charge is not expected to be significant. The merger is
          expected to be completed in the first quarter of calendar 1998,
          subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including approval
          by shareholders of MediQual.

          On August 23, 1997, the Company signed a definitive merger agreement
          with Bergen Brunswig Corporation ("Bergen"), a distributor of
          pharmaceuticals and medical-surgical supplies, pursuant to which
          Bergen will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in a
          stock-for-stock merger expected to be accounted for as a
          pooling-of-interests for financial reporting purposes. Under the terms
          of the proposed merger, shareholders of Bergen will receive .775 of a
          Company Common Share in exchange for each outstanding common share of
          Bergen. The Company will issue approximately 40 million Common Shares
          in the transaction and will also assume approximately $418 million in
          long-term debt. The Company will record merger-related charges to
          reflect transaction and other costs incurred as a result of the
          proposed transaction with Bergen. Since the merger has not yet been
          consummated and transition plans are currently being developed, the
          amount of these charges cannot be estimated at this time. Merger
          related costs incurred prior to consummation of the merger will be
          deferred and expensed upon consummation. The merger is expected to be
          completed by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 1998, subject to
          the satisfaction of certain conditions, including approvals by the
          stockholders of Bergen and the Company's shareholders, and the receipt
          of certain regulatory approvals.

Note 5.   In February 1997, the Financial Standards Board ("FASB") issued
          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128,
          "Earnings per Share," which simplifies the computation of earnings per
          share, and will require retroactive adoption in the quarter ending
          December 31, 1997. Had the new standard been applied in the current
          quarter, "basic" earnings per share (replaces primary) would have 
          


                                     Page 6
<PAGE>   7


     been $.01 higher than primary and "diluted" earnings per share would
     have been the same as fully diluted in the current presentation.


     In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
     Income", and SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and
     Related Information", both of which will require adoption in fiscal 1999.
     These new statements will not impact the Company's financial statements,
     but may require additional disclosures. The Company is presently evaluating
     the applicability of SFAS No.'s 130 and 131 to its operations.

Note 6.   Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's financial statements for
          the first quarter of fiscal 1998 and following discussions with the
          Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission resulting from the
          Staff's review of the Company's financial statements in connection
          with the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 relating to the
          MediQual transaction, the Company determined: (1) that certain merger
          related costs originally recorded in the period in which the merger
          was consummated should be recorded when such cost was incurred; (2)
          that certain restructuring and other costs (which were previously
          reported as merger related or unusual items) should be reclassified as
          part of selling, general and administrative expenses; and (3) that the
          recognition of certain manufacturers incentives should be deferred as
          a reduction of the inventory value until the sale of such inventory.
          As a result, the Company's financial statements for the quarters ended
          September 30, 1997 and 1996 have been restated from amounts previously
          reported.

          The effect of these items on the accompanying financial statements is
          summarized as follows:

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


     Management's discussion and analysis presented below is concerned with
material changes in financial condition and results of operations for the
Company's consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 1997 and June 30,
1997, and for the consolidated statements of earnings for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996. This should be read together with management's
discussion and analysis included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997, as amended by the Form 10-K/A (Amendment
No. 1) filed on January 7, 1998.

     Portions of management's discussion and analysis presented below include
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results to
materially differ from those projected or implied. The most significant of such
risks, uncertainties and other factors are described in Exhibit 99.01 to the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1997 and
are incorporated herein by reference. The Company disclaims any obligation to
update any forward-looking statement.

     Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's financial statements for the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 and following discussions with the Staff of the
Securities and Exchange Commission resulting from the Staff's review of the
Company's financial statements in connection with the Company's Registration
Statement on Form S-4 relating to the MediQual transaction, the Company
determined: (1) that certain merger related costs originally recorded in the
period in which the merger was consummated should be recorded in the period of
incurrence; (2) that certain restructuring and other costs should be
reclassified as part of selling, general and administrative expenses; and (3)
that certain manufacturers incentives should be deferred as a reduction of the
inventory value until the sale of such inventory. As a result, the Company's
financial statements for the quarters ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 have
been restated from amounts previously reported. See Note 6 of "Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements" for a further discussion of the restatements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net Revenues. Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 increased
13% as compared to the first quarter in fiscal 1997. Distribution businesses
(those whose primary operations involve the wholesale distribution of
pharmaceuticals, representing 91% of total revenues) grew at a rate of 11% while
Service businesses (those that provide services to the healthcare industry
through pharmacy franchising, pharmacy automation equipment, pharmacy
management, and pharmaceutical packaging) grew at a rate of 46% primarily on the
strength of the Company's pharmacy automation and pharmacy management
businesses. The majority of the revenue increase (approximately 65%) came from
existing customers in the form of increased volume and price increases.
The remainder of the growth came from the addition of new customers.

     Gross Margin. For the three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, gross
margin as a percentage of net revenues was 7.87% and 7.65%, respectively. The
increase in the gross margin percentage is a result of a higher mix of Services
revenues in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 versus the same period of a year
ago (9% in fiscal 1998 versus 7% in fiscal 1997). The Service businesses gross
margin rate was 30.72% versus 34.29% last year. The decrease is primarily a
function of the relatively higher revenue growth experienced in the pharmacy
management operations, which have lower margins relative to the other Service
businesses. The Distribution gross margin remained stable at 5.56% in the
current period, as the impact of lower selling margins, due to a highly
competitive market and a greater mix of high volume customers, where a lower
cost of distribution and better asset management enable the Company to offer
lower selling margins to its customers, were offset by increases in
merchandising incentives provided by the Company's vendors.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues improved to 4.71% for
the three months ended September 30, 1997 from 4.90% for the prior period. The
improvement reflects economies associated with the Company's revenue growth, as
well as significant productivity gains resulting from continued cost control
efforts and the consolidation and selective automation of operating facilities.
Similar to gross margins, the shift in the current quarter to a greater mix of
Services business caused a higher level of expenses (Services have a 17.93%
ratio of expenses to revenues compared to Distribution with a ratio of 3.12%).
The 9% growth in selling, general and administrative expenses experienced in the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 was due primarily to increases in personnel costs
and depreciation expense.

<PAGE>   10





     Merger Related Costs. Costs of integrating the operations of the various
companies are recorded as merger costs when incurred. During the three months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, the Company recorded approximately $2.2
million ($1.3 million, net of tax) and $0.2 million ($0.1 million, net of tax),
respectively, of such costs. The effect of the merger related costs recorded
during the three months ended September 30, 1997 was to reduce net earnings by
$1.3 million to $54.0 million and to reduce reported fully diluted earnings per
common share by $.01 per share to $.49 per share.

     The Company estimates that it will incur additional merger related costs
related to the various mergers it has completed of approximately $9.5 million
($5.7 million, net of tax) in future periods (primarily fiscal 1998) in order to
properly integrate operations and implement efficiencies with regard to, among
other things, information systems, customer systems, marketing programs and
administrative functions. Such amounts will be charged to expense when incurred.

     Other Income (Expense). The decrease in interest expense of $1.6 million in
the first quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to fiscal 1997 is primarily due to
extinguishment of the Company's $100 million 8% Notes on March 1, 1997. The
increase in other income is due to higher investment income, in part due to
better asset management in the current quarter when only $63 million of cash was
used, compared to a use of $179 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1997.

     Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's provision for income taxes
relative to pretax earnings was 39% and 40% for the three months ended September
30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax
rate is primarily due to a reduction in the state effective tax rate as a result
of the change in the Company's business mix.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Working capital increased to $1,160 million at September 30, 1997 from
$1,098 million at June 30, 1997. This increase included additional investments
in merchandise inventories and trade receivables of $177.9 million and $18.9
million, respectively. Offsetting the increases in working capital was a
decrease in cash and equivalents of $62.5 million and an increase in accounts
payable of $103.5 million. The increase in merchandise inventories reflects the
higher level of current and anticipated business volume in pharmaceutical
distribution activities. The increase in trade receivables is consistent with
the Company's net revenues growth (see "Net Revenues" above). The change in cash
and equivalents and accounts payable is due primarily to the timing of inventory
purchases and related payments.

     Property and equipment, at cost, increased by $15.1 million from June 30,
1997. The property acquired included increased investment in management
information systems and customer support systems.

     Shareholders' equity increased to $1,397.5 million at September 30, 1997
from $1,334.7 million at June 30, 1997, primarily due to net earnings of $54.0
million and the investment of $11.1 million by employees of the Company through
various stock incentive plans during the first quarter of fiscal 1998.


OTHER

     On May 27, 1997, the Company announced that it had entered into a
definitive merger agreement with MediQual Systems, Inc. ("MediQual"), pursuant
to which MediQual will become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in a
stock-for-stock merger expected to be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests
for financial reporting purposes. In connection with the merger, the Company
estimates that it will issue approximately 0.6 million Common Shares. Upon
consummation of the merger, the Company will record a merger-related charge to
reflect transaction and other costs incurred as a result of the merger. The
amount of this charge is not expected to be significant. The merger is expected
to be completed in the first quarter of calendar 1998, subject to the
satisfaction of certain conditions, including approval by shareholders of
MediQual.

     On August 23, 1997, the Company signed a definitive merger agreement with
Bergen Brunswig Corporation ("Bergen"), a distributor of pharmaceuticals and
medical-surgical supplies, pursuant to which Bergen will become a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company in a stock-for-stock merger expected to be accounted
for as a pooling-of-interests for financial reporting purposes. Under the terms
of the proposed merger, shareholders of Bergen will

<PAGE>   11



receive .775 of a Company Common Share in exchange for each outstanding common
share of Bergen. The Company will issue approximately 40 million Common Shares
in the transaction and will also assume approximately $418 million in long-term
debt. The Company will record merger-related charges to reflect transaction and
other costs incurred as a result of the proposed transaction with Bergen. Since
the merger has not yet been consummated and transition plans are currently being
developed, the amount of these charges cannot be estimated at this time. Merger-
related costs incurred prior to consummation of the merger will be deferred and
expensed upon consummation. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of
the third quarter of fiscal 1998, subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions, including approvals by the stockholders of Bergen and the Company's
shareholders, and the receipt of certain regulatory approvals.

     The Company utilizes computer technologies throughout its business to
effectively carry out its day to day operations. Similar to most companies, the
Company must determine whether its systems are capable of recognizing and
processing date sensitive information properly as the year 2000 approaches. The
Company has completed a preliminary assessment of its year 2000 requirements and
is currently correcting and replacing those systems which are not year 2000
compliant, in order to continue to meet its internal needs and those of its
customers. The Company believes it will be able to modify or replace its
affected systems in time to avoid any detrimental impact on its operations, and
expects this process to be substantially completed by the end of calendar year
1998. The Company is currently developing a complete cost estimate, but does not
anticipate that costs associated with this project will have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial statements in future periods.
