ATTACHMENT TO FORM 12B-25 OF
AMERICAN SHARED HOSPITAL SERVICES
DATED AUGUST 14, 1995
_________________________________
PART III
The Registrant is unable to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarterly period ended June 30, 1995 on August 14, 1995 because additional
time is required to complete the financial statements for such period, without
unreasonable effort and expense, to reflect the registrant's recent adoption of
FASB Rule 121 ("Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of").
PART IV
The Registrant anticipates that its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarterly period ended June 30, 1995 will reflect a significant change in
results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year,
including:
1) An extraordinary gain of approximately $20,378,000 resulting from the
Registrant's repurchase of approximately 96% of its outstanding Senior
Subordinated Notes as previously announced on May 18, 1995, and
2) An extraordinary charge for an amount not yet determined, resulting
from the Registrant's adoption of FASB Rule 121 as described above. The
Registrant is not currently able to provide a reasonable estimate of
the amount of such charges, because it still is calculating the effect
of adopting FASB 121.
