NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with 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 accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended October 31,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending July 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2000.
NOTE 2 - SUNSTAR HEALTHCARE, INC.
SunStar Healthcare, Inc. ("SunStar") has been a publicly traded
corporation since May 1996. SunStar, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, had comprised the Company's Florida outpatient medical center
operations. In May 1996, SunStar completed its initial public offering following
a complete change in management and the adoption of a business plan by new
management for the establishment of a health maintenance organization. As a
result, SunStar was no longer consolidated with the Company for accounting
purposes. The Company had utilized the equity method of accounting for its
investment in SunStar. In February 2000, SunStar's sole operating subsidiary
effectively discontinued operations. As of October 31, 2000, the Company's
ownership percentage of SunStar was 21.6% and the Company's value of its
investment was $0.
NOTE 3 - ACQUISITIONS
On August 10, 1998, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary
Health Acquisition Corp. ("Health Acquisition"), acquired, for $1,943,000 in
cash, including acquisition costs of $8,000, certain assets of Bryan Employment
Agency, Inc., d/b/a Bryan Home Care Services ("Bryan Home Care"), a New York
licensed home health care company which provides home care services in
Westchester County, New York. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.
The purchase price was generated from internal funds. The acquisition expanded
the geographic presence of the Company and enabled Health Acquisition to become
a participating provider in the Westchester County Department of Social Services
Medicaid Program.
On November 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
shares of Accredited Health Services, Inc. ("Accredited"). Accredited is a
licensed home health care company that provides home health aide services in
Bergen, Hudson, Passaic, Essex, Morris,
-7-
<PAGE>
Union, Somerset and Middlesex Counties, New Jersey. The purchase price of
approximately $1,949,000 in cash, including acquisition costs of $85,000, was
generated from internal funds. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase.
On November 1, 1999, the Company acquired, through wholly owned
subsidiaries in Connecticut, certain assets of Optimum Care Services of
Connecticut, Inc., Optimum Home Health of Connecticut, Inc. and Optimum Home
Care of Connecticut, Inc., (the "Optimum Entities"). The assets were acquired
from a court-appointed Chapter 7 Trustee for a purchase price of $4,490,000 in
cash, including acquisition costs of $90,000, which amount was generated from
internal funds of the Company. The final purchase price was determined through
an auction process conducted at the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Massachusetts. The assets acquired included certain, but not all,
machinery, equipment, intangibles and accounts receivable. The acquisition
represented the Company's opportunity to expand its Connecticut operations into
additional areas in the state. The Company is operating the acquired assets
under the Company's pre-existing wholly-owned subsidiary in Connecticut, New
England Home Care, Inc. ("New England"), and a recently formed subsidiary,
Connecticut Staffing Works Corp. ("Ct. Staffing").
The Optimum Entities had been engaged in the business of providing home
health care, staffing and related services in Connecticut, including a Medicare
certified and licensed home health care agency and an affiliate providing
staffing services.
On April 14, 2000, the Company acquired, through New England, certain
assets of the Connecticut operations of U.S. HomeCare Corp. ("U.S.
HomeCare-Connecticut") for $311,000 in cash, including acquisition costs of
$11,000. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The purchase price was
generated from internal funds of the Company. The acquisition complemented the
Company's existing operations in the state of Connecticut.
On August 25, 2000, Accredited purchased certain assets of Health
Forced Owned, Ltd. and its affiliates ("Health Force"). Health Force's
operations included the provision of home health aide and skilled nursing
services in northern and central New Jersey. The purchase price of approximately
$1,822,000 in cash, including acquisition costs of $42,000, was generated from
internal funds. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The acquisition
complemented the Company's existing operations in New Jersey and also expanded
its services to include skilled nursing.

ITEM 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
Operations.
The following discussion and analysis provides information which the
Company's management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of
the Company's results of operations and financial condition. This discussion
should be read in conjunction with the attached consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto, and with the Company's audited financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2000.
Except for historical information contained herein, certain matters set
forth in this report are forward-looking statements that are dependent on
certain risks and uncertainties, including such factors, among others, as market
acceptance, market demand pricing, changing regulatory environment (including in
particular the impact of recent prospective payment Medicare regulations),
changing economic conditions, risks in new product and service development, the
effect of the Company's accounting policies, risks in connection with
acquisitions, ability to retain and attract qualified personnel in a strong
labor market and other risks detailed in the Company's other filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company is subject to significant external factors that could
significantly impact its business, including changes in Medicare and Medicaid
reimbursement, government fraud and abuse initiatives and other such factors
that are beyond the control of the Company. These factors, as well as future
changes in reimbursement, could cause future results to differ materially from
historical results.
The Balanced Budget Act of 1997, as amended (the "Act"), was signed
into law on August 5, 1997. Under the Act, until October 1, 2000, Medicare
certified home health agencies were reimbursed under an interim payment system
("IPS") for a two-year period prior to the implementation of a prospective
payment system. Under IPS, home health care providers were reimbursed the lower
of (i) their actual costs, (ii) cost limits based on 105% of median costs of
freestanding home health agencies or (iii) an agency-specific per patient cost
limit, based on 98% of 1994 costs adjusted for inflation. Prior to the
implementation of IPS, Medicare reimbursed providers on a reasonable cost basis
subject to program-imposed cost per visit limitations. Effective October 1,
2000, under the prospective payment system, the last remaining phase of the Act,
Medicare now reimburses providers a predetermined base payment. The payment is
adjusted for the health condition and care needs of the beneficiary and is also
adjusted for the geographic differences in wages across the country. Medicare
provides home health agencies with payments for 60-day "episodes of care".
The implementation of IPS has resulted in a decrease in Medicare
revenue from the Company's Medicare certified agency. In addition, the Company's
operations in New York and New Jersey are dependent upon referrals, primarily
from Medicare certified home health care agencies, whose reimbursement has been
adversely affected. Under the prospective payment
-10-
<PAGE>
system, there can be no assurance that the Company's future referrals will not
result in reduced reimbursement rates or reduced volume of business.
Results of Operations and Effects of Inflation
----------------------------------------------
For the three months ended October 31, 2000, net patient revenue
increased $8,024,000, or 84.5%, to $17,518,000 from $9,494,000 for the three
months ended October 31, 1999. This increase is attributable to $5,908,000 of
net patient revenue from the expansion of the Company's operations in
Connecticut through the opportunity represented by the liquidation of Optimum
Entities, the acquisition on November 1, 1999 of certain assets of the Optimum
trustee, the acquisition of certain assets of U.S. HomeCare-Connecticut on April
14, 2000 and the successful penetration of the available market share. In New
Jersey, the Company's net patient revenue increased $511,000 over the periods as
a result of the acquisition of certain assets of Health Force on August 25, 2000
and in New York, net patient revenue increased $1,605,000 as a result of the
Company's ability to capitalize on additional market share resulting from the
abandonment of Health Force's operations in the state.
Gross profit margin increased slightly to 33.5% for the three months
ended October 31, 2000 from 33.4% for the three months ended October 31, 1999.
General and administrative expenses increased $1,645,000, or 68.7%, to
$4,040,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2000 from $2,395,000 for the
three months ended October 31, 1999. This increase is attributable to the
additional general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with the
expansion into the markets previously served by the Optimum Entities, U.S.
HomeCare-Connecticut and Health Force. As a percentage of net patient revenue,
general and administrative expenses decreased to 23.1% for the three months
ended October 31, 2000 from 25.2% for the three months ended October 31, 1999.
Amortization of intangibles increased $80,000, or 56.3%, to $222,000
for the three months ended October 31, 2000 from $142,000 for the three months
ended October 31, 1999. This increase is attributable to the amortization of
goodwill and intangibles associated with the acquisitions of certain assets of
the Optimum Entities, U.S. HomeCare-Connecticut and Health Force.
The Company recorded a provision of $130,000 in bad debt expense for
the three months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to $0 for the three months
ended October 31, 1999. As the Company does not have experience with many of the
new payor sources with which it now contracts as a result of the Company's
expansion into the new markets in both Connecticut and New Jersey, the Company
has established a reserve against its accounts receivable. In addition, the
Company has experienced increases in accounts receivable balances with certain
of the Medicare certified agencies with which it contracts. Accordingly, the
Company is reserving against accounts receivable in the event that some of these
accounts will have to be written off.
-11-
<PAGE>
As a result of the foregoing, income from operations increased
$853,000, or 135.2% to $1,484,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2000
from $631,000 for the three months ended October 31, 1999.
Interest income decreased ($48,000), or (56.5%) to $37,000 for the
three months ended October 31, 2000 from $85,000 for the three months ended
October 31, 1999. This decrease is attributable to cash used in investing
activities resulting from the acquisitions of certain assets of the Optimum
Entities, U.S. HomeCare-Connecticut, and Health Force over the past twelve month
period.
During the three months ended October 31, 1999, the Company recorded a
gain from sale of stock of equity investee in the amount of $943,000.
The Company's effective tax rate increased to 42.7% for the three
months ended October 31, 2000 from 34.2% for the three months ended October 31,
1999. This increase is attributable to a lower effective tax rate on the gain
resulting from the sale of stock of equity investee recorded for the three
months ended October 31, 1999. Excluding the gain from the sale of stock of
equity investee in the prior three month period, the effective rate was 42.7%.
Net income decreased ($219,000), or (20%), to $872,000, or $0.17 per
share in the three months ended October 31, 2000 from $1,091,000, or $.21 per
share, in the three months ended October 31, 1999. This decrease is attributable
solely to the gain resulting from the sale of stock of equity investee, net of
tax in the amount of $682,000, or $.13 per share, in the prior three month
period.
The rate of inflation had no material effect on operations for the
three months ended October 31, 2000.
Financial Condition and Capital Resources
-----------------------------------------
Current assets increased to $21,742,000 and current liabilities
increased to $3,138,000, respectively, at October 31, 2000. This resulted in a
decrease in working capital of ($708,000), from $19,312,000 at July 31, 2000 to
$18,604,000 at October 31, 2000. Cash and cash equivalents decreased ($672,000),
to $4,184,000 at October 31, 2000 from $4,856,000 at July 31, 2000. The decrease
in cash and working capital is primarily attributable to the acquisition of
certain assets of Health Force on August 25, 2000 for a purchase price of
$1,822,000 in cash.
The Company provided net cash from operating activities of $1,197,000
for the three months ended October 31, 2000 as compared to net cash provided by
operating activities of $378,000 for the three months ended October 31, 1999.
The increase in cash provided by operating activities of $819,000, or 216.7%, is
attributable to an increase in operating cash flow of $791,000, net increases in
operating liabilities of $300,000, offset by net increases in
-12-
<PAGE>
operating assets of ($272,000). Net cash used in investing activities for the
three months ended October 31, 2000 consisted of the purchase of assets of
Health Force and equipment, offset by the sale of assets. The cash provided by
investing activities for the three months ended October 31, 1999 consisted of
proceeds from sale of stock of equity investee and proceeds of investments,
offset by the purchase of equipment. Net cash used in financing activities for
the three months ended October 31, 2000 and October 31, 1999 reflects the
purchase of treasury shares.
The nature of the Company's business requires weekly payments to health
care personnel at the time services are rendered. The Company typically receives
payment for these services on a basis of 90 to 120 days with respect to
contracted and insurance business and 15 to 45 days with respect to certain
governmental payors, such as Medicare and Medicaid programs. Accounts receivable
turnover was 74 days at October 31, 2000.
The Company has available a $2,000,000 secured line of credit with its
bank. In addition, a subsidiary of the Company has a secured advised line of
credit. The maximum amount that can be borrowed under the secured advised line
of credit may not exceed the lesser of eligible accounts receivable or
$2,000,000. Both credit facilities bear interest at the alternate base
commercial lending rate of the bank and expire January 31, 2001. At October 31,
2000, there was no outstanding balance under either line of credit. The Company
is currently considering increasing its credit facilities to finance operations,
including continuing to make acquisitions in the home health care field.
The Company intends to meet its short term and long term liquidity need
with its current cash balances, cash flow from operations and existing and
future lines of credit.
In October 2000, the Board of Directors extended for one year its
program to repurchase its Common Stock. Purchases in the aggregate of up to
$1,000,000 in purchase price during the one-year extension would be made from
time to time in the open market and through privately negotiated transactions,
subject to general market and other conditions. The buyback program will be
financed out of existing cash or cash equivalents.
Year 2000 Compliance
--------------------
The Year 2000 issue is the result of date-sensitive devices, systems
and computer programs that were deployed using two digits rather than four to
define the applicable year. Any such technologies may recognize a year
containing "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in
a system failure or miscalculation causing disruption of operations including,
among other things, a temporary inability to process transactions or engage in
similar normal business activities.
The Company did not experience any significant malfunctions or errors
in its information or business systems when the date changed from 1999 to 2000.
Based on its operations since
-13-
<PAGE>
January 1, 2000, the Company does not expect any significant problems related to
the Year 2000 issue. However, it is possible that the full impact of the date
change has not been fully recognized. For example, it is possible that Year 2000
or similar issues, such as leap-year related problems, may occur with financial
closings. The Company believes that any such problems will be minor and easily
corrected. In addition, the Company could still be negatively impacted if the
Year 2000 or similar issues adversely affect its customers or suppliers.
Currently, the Company is not aware of any significant Year 2000 or similar
problems that have arisen with its customers or suppliers.
