NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1998
(Unaudited)
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We, the management of Health Care Property Investors, Inc., believe that the
unaudited financial information contained in this report reflects all
adjustments that are necessary to state fairly the financial position, the
results of operations, and cash flows of the Company. The Company is defined as
Health Care Property Investors, Inc. and its affiliated subsidiaries and joint
ventures. We presume that users of this interim financial information have read
or have access to the audited financial statements and Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the preceding
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. Therefore, notes to the financial
statements and other disclosures that would repeat the disclosures contained in
our most recent annual report to security holders have been omitted. This
interim financial information does not necessarily represent a full year's
operations for various reasons including acquisitions, changes in rents and
interest rates, and the timing of debt and equity financings.
Facility Operations:
During 1997 and 1998, we purchased 90 - 100 percent ownership interests in nine
medical office buildings ("MOBs") that are operated by independent property
management companies on our behalf. We lease these facilities to multiple
tenants under gross or triple net leases. Any income relating to these
properties, other than rental income, is recorded as facility operating revenue
and is included in Interest and Other Income. Expenses related to the operation
of these facilities are recorded as Facility Operating Expenses.
Reclassifications:
We have made reclassifications, where necessary, for comparative financial
statement presentations.
(2) MAJOR OPERATORS
Listed below are the Company's major operators and the percentage of annualized
revenue from these operators and their subsidiaries. Each of these operators is
subject to the informational filing requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, and accordingly file periodic financial statements on Form
10-K and 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We obtained all of
the financial and other information discussed below from these filings or from
other publicly available information.

Emeritus Corporation 11,164 7
Centennial Healthcare Corporation 8,917 5
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corp. 8,214 5
Tenet Healthcare Corporation ("Tenet") 7,762 5
On May 1, 1998, Vencor, Inc. ("Old Vencor") completed a spinoff transaction
pursuant to which it became two publicly held entities - Ventas, Inc.
("Ventas"), a real estate company which intends to qualify as a REIT, and New
Vencor, a healthcare company. New Vencor currently leases 40 of the Company's
properties, of which 17 are leased to various sublessees. Both Ventas and New
Vencor are responsible for payments due under the New Vencor leases and
substantially all of the New Vencor leases are guaranteed by Tenet.
Based upon public reports, Old Vencor's revenue and net income for the year
ended December 31, 1997 were approximately $3.1 billion and $130.9 million,
respectively; Old Vencor's total assets and stockholders' equity as of December
31, 1997 were approximately $3.3 billion and $905.4 million, respectively.
Based upon a recent press release issued by New Vencor, for the three months
ended September 30, 1998, New Vencor had revenue of approximately $718.1 million
and a net loss, excluding non-recurring transactions, of approximately $1.1
million. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998, New Vencor had revenue
of approximately $2.3 billion and a net loss (including an extraordinary loss of
$77.9 million) of approximately $44.9 million.
Based upon a recent press release issued by Ventas, Ventas' revenue, income from
operations and net income for the three months ended September 30, 1998 were
approximately $56.2 million, $13.0 million and $12.9 million, respectively. As
of September 30, 1998, Ventas had total assets of $960.0 million and a
stockholders' deficit of $24.2 million.
Tenet leases and those guaranteed by Tenet represented approximately 16% of the
Company's total annualized revenue as of September 30, 1998. During 1998, 14 of
the New Vencor leases that were guaranteed by Tenet expired. All of the related
properties have been re-leased, have agreements to re-lease in place with other
operators, or have other agreements in principle and will no longer be
guaranteed by Tenet.
Based upon a recent press release issued by Emeritus, for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, Emeritus had revenue of approximately $39.0 million and a
net loss of approximately $7.1 million. For the nine months ended September
30, 1998, Emeritus had revenue of $110.8 million and a net loss of $25.0
million. Based upon public reports, as of June 30, 1998, Emeritus had total
assets of $212.0 million and a stockholders' deficit of $26.9 million.

(3) GAIN ON SALE OF REAL ESTATE
The Company sold three facilities and a partnership interest in another facility
during the third quarter, resulting in a gain of $6,230,000. In addition, three
financing leases and a mortgage loan receivable were paid off.
(4) ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK
On September 4, 1998, the Company issued 5,385,000 shares of 8.70% Series B
Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock which generated net proceeds of
$130,000,000 (net of underwriters' discount and other offering expenses).
Dividends on the Preferred Stock are payable quarterly in arrears in March,
June, September and December, commencing with the quarter ending September 30,
1998. The Preferred Stock is not redeemable prior to September 30, 2003, after
which date the Preferred Stock may be redeemable at par ($25 per share or
$134,625,000 in the aggregate) any time for cash at the option of the Company.
The Preferred Stock has no stated maturity, will not be subject to any sinking
fund or mandatory redemption and is not convertible into any other securities of
the Company. The proceeds were used to pay off short-term bank debt. The
remainder was invested in short-term investments pending future acquisition and
development activity.

(6) EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accountings Standards No. 128,
Earnings Per Share, effective December 15, 1997. As a result, both basic and
diluted earnings per common share are presented for each of the quarters and
nine months ended September 30, 1998 and 1997. In prior years, only basic
earnings per common share was disclosed. Basic earnings per common share is
computed by dividing net income applicable to common shares by the weighted
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per common share is calculated including the effect of dilutive
securities. Options to purchase shares of common stock that had an exercise
price in excess of the average market price of the common stock during the
period were not included because they are not dilutive. The convertible debt
was included only in those periods when the effect on earnings per common share
was dilutive.

(7) FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
We are required to report information about our operations on the basis that we
use internally to measure performance under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise, effective
beginning in 1998.
We believe that Funds From Operations ("FFO") is our most important supplemental
measure of operating performance. Because the historical cost accounting
convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation
(except on land) such accounting presentation implies that the value of real
estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values
instead have historically risen and fallen with market conditions, presentations
of operating results for a real estate investment trust that uses historical
cost accounting for depreciation could be less informative. The term FFO was
designed by the real estate investment trust industry to address this problem.
The Company adopted the definition of FFO prescribed by the National Association
of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). FFO is defined as net income
applicable to common shares (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and
sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and real estate related
amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint
ventures. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are
calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis.
FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, is not necessarily indicative of
cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative
to net income. FFO, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to
similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts that do
not define it exactly as the NAREIT definition.
<PAGE>
Below are summaries of the calculation of FFO and FFO per share of common stock
(all amounts in thousands except per share amounts):

</TABLE>
(8) COMMITMENTS
As of November 2, 1998, the Company has acquired real estate properties and has
outstanding commitments to fund development of facilities on those properties of
approximately $84,000,000.
The Company is also committed to acquire approximately $268,000,000 of existing
health care real estate. The Company expects that a significant portion of these
commitments will be funded; however, experience suggests that some committed
transactions will not close. The letters of intent representing such commitments
permit either party to elect not to go forward with the transaction under
various circumstances. We may not close committed transactions for various
reasons including unsatisfied pre-closing conditions, competitive financing
sources, final negotiation differences or the operator's inability to obtain
required internal or governmental approvals.
(9) NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities. The Statement establishes accounting and reporting
standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the balance
sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. The Statement
requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in
earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Statement 133 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999, although earlier
implementation is allowed.
We have not yet quantified the impacts of adopting Statement 133 on our
financial statements and have not determined the timing of or method of our
adoption of Statement 133. However, the effect is not expected to be material.
During May 1998, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 98-9,
Accounting for Contingent Rent in Interim Financial Periods, was released. The
issue as it relates to the Company is how we as a lessor should account for
contingent rental income during interim periods that is based on future
specified targets within our fiscal year. In other words, if the target revenue
on which contingent rents are based has not yet been achieved for the current
year, the contingent rent should not be recognized. Recognition would be
allowed once the specified target is reached.
<PAGE>
Because the vast majority of our contingent rents are based on quarterly
revenues, we feel that our current policy of recognizing additional rent on a
quarterly basis is proper. Therefore the effect of adopting EITF 98-9 is not
material to our financial condition or results of operations.
(10) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 20, 1998 the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of
$0.67 per common share payable on November 20, 1998, to shareholders of record
on the close of business on November 3, 1998.
The Board of Directors also declared a cash dividend of $0.492188 per share on
its Series A cumulative preferred stock and $0.54375 per share on its Series B
cumulative preferred stock. These dividends will be paid on December 31, 1998
to shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 15, 1998.
<PAGE>
HEALTH CARE PROPERTY INVESTORS, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
The Company is in the business of acquiring health care facilities that we lease
on a long-term basis to health care providers. On a more limited basis, we have
provided mortgage financing on health care facilities. As of September 30, 1998,
the Company's portfolio of properties, including equity investments, consisted
of 302 facilities located in 42 states. These facilities are comprised of 145
long-term care facilities, 83 congregate care and assisted living facilities, 39
physician group practice clinics, 21 medical office buildings, seven acute care
hospitals, six freestanding rehabilitation facilities and one psychiatric care
facility. The gross acquisition price of the properties, which includes joint
venture acquisitions, was approximately $1,343,000,000 at September 30, 1998.
We have commitments to purchase and construct health care facilities totaling
approximately $352,000,000 for funding during 1998 and 1999. We expect that a
significant portion of these commitments will be funded but that a portion may
not be funded (see Note (8) to the Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements).
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Income applicable to common shares for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1998 totaled $22,836,000 and $55,679,000 or $0.72 and $1.81 of
diluted earnings per share on revenue of $42,166,000 and $116,448,000,
respectively. This compares to $15,553,000 and $48,066,000 or $.54 and $1.66 of
diluted earnings per share on revenue of $32,307,000 and $94,925,000,
respectively, for the same periods in 1997. Net Income for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 1998 included a $6,230,000 and $6,742,000, or $0.18
and $0.20 per diluted share, gain on the sale of real estate properties. Net
Income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 included a $2,047,000 or
$0.07 per diluted share gain on the sale of real estate properties.
Base Rental Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased by $6,508,000 and $15,310,000 to $30,075,000 and $83,647,000 as
compared to the same period in the prior year. The majority of the increase in
Base Rental Income was generated by new investments of approximately
$250,000,000 and $262,000,000 made during 1998 and 1997. Interest and Other
Income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased
$3,076,000 and $5,695,000 to $6,608,000 and $16,462,000. The increase was
primarily from growth in the lending portfolio and from an increase in income
from the operations of nine medical office buildings purchased during 1997
and 1998. There were $1,466,000 and $3,211,000 in related Facility Operating
Expenses during the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998.
Interest Expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998
increased by $2,844,000 and $5,320,000. The increase is primarily the
result of an increase in short-term borrowings used to fund the acquisitions
made during 1998 and interest related to the MOPPRS senior debt issuance
during June 1998. The increase in Depreciation/Non Cash Charges for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 of $1,845,000 and $4,694,000
to $8,366,000 and $23,750,000 is the direct result of the new investments
made during 1997 and 1998.
<PAGE>
We believe that Funds From Operations ("FFO") is an important supplemental
measure of operating performance. (See Note (7) to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements.)
FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1998 increased $3,230,000
and $8,442,000 to $24,307,000 and $70,573,000, respectively. The increase is
attributable to increases in Base Rental Income and Interest and Other Income,
as offset by increases in Interest Expense and Facility Operating Expenses,
which are discussed above.
FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, is not necessarily indicative of
cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative
to net income. FFO, as we defined it, may not be comparable to similarly
entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts that do not use
the NAREIT definition.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has financed acquisitions through the sale of common and preferred
stock, issuance of long-term debt, assumption of mortgage debt, use of short-
term bank lines and through internally generated cash flows. Facilities under
construction are generally financed by means of cash on hand or short-term
borrowings under our existing bank lines. At the completion of construction and
commencement of the lease, short-term borrowings used in the construction phase
are generally refinanced with new long-term debt, including Medium Term Notes
("MTNs"), or with equity offerings.

SENIOR DEBT OFFERINGS
- ---------------------
During June 1998, the Company issued $200 million of 6.875% MandatOry Par Put
Remarketed Securities ("MOPPRS") due June 8, 2015 which are subject to mandatory
tender on June 8, 2005. We received total proceeds of approximately
$203,000,000 (including the present value of a put option associated with the
debt) which was used to repay borrowings under our revolving lines of credit.
The weighted average cost of the debt including the amortization of the option
and offering expenses is 6.77%. The MOPPRS are senior, unsecured obligations of
the Company.
<PAGE>
EQUITY OFFERINGS
- ----------------
During the past year, we have completed four equity offerings. On September 26,
1997, we issued $60,000,000, 7-7/8% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Stock. During December 1997 we raised $55,000,000 of equity in a common stock
offering of 1,437,500 shares at $38.3125 per share. During April 1998, we sold
698,752 shares of common stock in a common stock offering at $33.2217 per share.
On September 4, 1998 we issued $135,000,000, 8.70% Series B Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock. We used the net proceeds of $57,810,000,
$51,935,000, $23,000,000 and $130,000,000 from the respective equity offerings
to pay down or pay off short-term borrowings under the Company's revolving lines
of credit. We invested any excess funds in short-term investments until they
were needed for acquisitions or development.
At September 30, 1998, stockholders' equity totaled $592,871,000 and the debt to
equity ratio was 0.99 to 1.00. For the nine months ended September 30, 1998,
FFO (before interest expense) covered Interest Expense 3.64 to 1.00.
AVAILABLE FINANCING SOURCES
- ---------------------------
During June 1998, the Company registered $600,000,000 of debt and equity
securities under a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. As of September 30, 1998 we had $518,280,000 remaining on
shelf filings for future financings. Of that amount, we had approximately
$202,905,000 available under our MTN senior debt programs. These amounts may be
issued from time to time in the future based on Company needs and then existing
market conditions. On September 30, 1998 we renegotiated our lines of credit
with a group of seven banks. We have two revolving lines of credit, one for
$135,000,000 that expires on September 30, 2003 and one for $45,000,000 that
expires on September 30, 1999. As of September 30, 1998, the Company had all
$180,000,000 available on these lines of credit. Since 1986 the debt rating
agencies have rated our Senior Notes and Convertible Subordinated Notes
investment grade. Current ratings are as follows:
Moody's Standard & Poor's Duff & Phelps
--------------------------------------------------
Senior Notes Baa1 BBB+ A-
Convertible
Subordinated Notes Baa2 BBB BBB+
Since inception in May 1985, the Company has recorded approximately $664,786,000
in cumulative FFO. Of this amount, we have distributed a total of $558,111,000
to stockholders as dividends on common stock. We have retained the balance of
$106,675,000 and used it as an additional source of capital.
At September 30, 1998, the Company held approximately $41,000,000 in irrevocable
letters of credit from commercial banks to secure the obligations of many
lessees' lease and borrowers' loan obligations. We may draw upon the letters of
credit if there are any defaults under the leases and/or loans. Amounts
available under letters of credit could change based upon facility operating
conditions and other factors and such changes may be material.
<PAGE>
We paid the third quarter 1998 dividend of $0.66 per common share or $20,436,000
in the aggregate on August 20, 1998. Total dividends paid during the nine
months ended September 30, 1998, as a percentage of FFO was 85%. The Company
declared a fourth quarter dividend of $0.67 per common share or approximately
$20,752,000 in the aggregate, payable on November 20, 1998.
FACILITY ROLLOVERS
- ------------------
The Company has concluded a significant number of "facility rollover"
transactions in 1995, 1996, 1997 and 1998 on properties that have been under
long-term leases and mortgages. "Facility rollover" transactions principally
include lease renewals and renegotiations, exchanges, sales of properties, and,
to a lesser extent, payoffs on mortgage receivables.

1995 Completed 20 facility rollovers including the sale
of ten facilities with concurrent "seller financing"
for a gain of $23,550,000. $ 900,000
1996 Completed 20 facility rollovers including the sale
of nine facilities in Missouri and the exchange of
the Dallas Rehabilitation Institute for the HealthSouth
Sunrise Rehabilitation Hospital in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida. (1,200,000)
1997 Completed 12 facility rollovers. (1,600,000)
1998 Completed or agreed to complete 37 facility rollovers
including the sale of ten facilities and the payoff of
three mortgage loans. (2,100,000)
</TABLE>
Through December 31, 2000, we have 29 more facilities that are subject to lease
expiration, mortgage maturities or purchase options (which management believes
may be exercised). These facilities currently represent approximately 13% of
annualized revenues.
During 1997, the Company reached agreement with Tenet (the holder of
substantially all the option rights of the New Vencor leases) and with Beverly
Enterprises, Inc. ("Beverly") whereby they agreed to waive renewal and purchase
options, and related rights of first refusal, on up to 57 facilities. As part of
these agreements, we have the right to continue to own the facilities. Leases
on 27 of those 57 facilities had expiration dates through December 31, 2000. We
have increased rents on six of the facilities with leases that have already
expired during 1998, and believe we will be able to increase rents on other
facilities whose lease terms expire through 2001. However, there can be no
assurance that we will be able to realize any increased rents on future
rollovers. The Company has completed certain facility rollovers earlier than the
scheduled lease expirations or mortgage maturities and will continue to pursue
such opportunities where it is advantageous to do so.
We believe that the Company's liquidity and sources of capital are adequate to
finance its operations as well as its future investments in additional
facilities.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The Year 2000 issue is the result of widely used computer programs that identify
the year by two digits, rather than by four. It is believed that continued use
of these programs may result in widespread computer-generated malfunctions and
miscalculations beginning in the year 2000, when the digits "00" are interpreted
as "1900." Those miscalculations could cause disruption of operations including
the temporary inability to process transactions such as invoices for payment.
Those computer programs that identify the year based on all four digits are
considered "Year 2000 compliant." The statements in the following section
include "Year 2000 readiness disclosure" within the meaning of the Year 2000
Information and Readiness Disclosure Act of 1998.
STATUS OF YEAR 2000 ISSUES WITH THE COMPANY'S OWN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS
AND NON-IT SYSTEMS. The Company's primary use of information technology ("IT")
is in its financial accounting systems, billing and collection systems and other
information management software. The Company's operations are conducted out of
its corporate offices in Newport Beach, California where it uses and is exposed
to non-IT systems such as those contained in embedded micro-processors in
telephone and voicemail systems, elevators, heating, ventilation and air
conditioning (HVAC) systems, lighting timers, security systems, and other
property operational control systems.
We believe that we do not have significant exposure to Year 2000 issues with
respect to our own accounting and information software systems or with respect
to non-IT systems contained in embedded chips used in our corporate offices. We
have been working with our computer consultants to test and continually upgrade
our management information systems and we have reasonable assurance from our
vendors and outside computer consultants that our financial and other
information systems are Year 2000 compliant. The cost to bring our management
information systems into Year 2000 compliance has not been material. While any
disruption in services at our corporate offices due to failure of non-IT systems
may be inconvenient and disruptive to normal day-to-day activities, it is not
expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial performance or
operations.
EXPOSURE TO THIRD PARTIES' YEAR 2000 ISSUES. Because we believe our own
accounting and information systems are substantially Year 2000 compliant, we do
not feel there will be material disruption to our transaction processing on
January 1, 2000. However, the Company depends upon its tenants for rents and
cash flows, its financial institutions for availability of working capital and
capital markets financing and its transfer agent to maintain and track investor
information. If our primary lessees and mortgagors are not Year 2000 compliant,
or if they face disruptions in their cash flows due to Year 2000 issues, we
could face significant temporary disruptions in our cash flows after that date.
These disruptions could be exacerbated if the commercial banks that process our
cash receipts and disbursements and our lending institutions are not Year 2000
compliant. Furthermore, to the extent there are broad market disruptions as a
result of widespread Year 2000 issues, our access to the capital markets to
raise cash for investing activity could be impaired.
To address this concern, during the second quarter of 1998, we commenced a
written survey of all of our major tenants, Bank of New York in its capacity as
agent under our credit facilities, and as common stock Transfer Agent and
Trustee under our senior debt indenture, each other lender under our credit
facility, our primary investment banker for our capital raising activities, and
our independent public accountants and our primary outside legal counsel. Our
survey asked each respondent to assess its exposure to Year 2000 issues and
asked what preparations each has made to deal with the Year 2000 issue with
respect to both information technology and non-IT systems. In addition we asked
each respondent to inform us about their exposure to third party vendors,
customers and payers who may not be Year 2000 compliant.
<PAGE>
Through this process we have been informed in writing by approximately 95% of
those surveyed that they believe that they have computer systems that are or
will be Year 2000 compliant by the end of 1999. (The balance or 5% is in the
process of responding to us in writing.) All continue to assess their own
exposure to the issue. However neither we nor our lessees and mortgagors can be
assured that the federal and state governments, upon which they rely for
Medicare and Medicaid revenue, will be in compliance in a timely manner.
We are in the process of assessing our exposure to failures of embedded
microprocessors contained in elevators, electrical and HVAC systems, security
systems and the breakdown of other non-IT systems due to the Year 2000 issue at
the properties operated by our tenants. Under a significant portion of our
leases, the Company is not responsible for the cost to repair such items and is
indemnified by the tenants for losses caused by their operations on the
property. For the Medical Office Buildings where the Company may be responsible
for repairing such items, we do not believe that the costs of repair will be
material to the Company and any such costs will be expensed as incurred.
RISKS TO THE COMPANY OF YEAR 2000 ISSUES. The Company's exposure to the Year
2000 issue depends primarily on the readiness of our significant tenants and
commercial banks, who in turn, are dependent upon suppliers, payers and other
external parties, all of which is outside the Company's control. We believe the
most reasonably likely worst case scenario faced by the Company as a result of
the Year 2000 issue is the possibility that reimbursement delays caused by a
failure of federal and state welfare programs responsible for Medicare and
Medicaid could adversely affect our tenant's cash flow, resulting in their
temporary inability to meet their obligations under our leases. Depending upon
the severity of any reimbursement delays and the financial strength of any
particular operator, the operations of our tenants could be materially adversely
affected, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our results of
operations.
In September 1998, the General Accounting Office reported that the Health Care
Financing Administration ("HCFA"), which runs Medicare, is behind schedule in
taking steps to deal with the Year 2000 issue and that it is highly unlikely
that all of the Medicare systems will be compliant in time to ensure the
delivery of uninterrupted benefits and services into the year 2000. The General
Accounting Office also reported in November 1998 that, based upon its survey of
the states, the District of Columbia and three territories, less than 16% of the
automated systems used by state and local government to administer Medicaid are
reported to be Year 2000 compliant. We do not know at this time whether there
will in fact be a disruption of Medicare or Medicaid reimbursements to our
lessees and mortgagors and we are therefore unable to determine at this time
whether the Year 2000 issue will have a material adverse effect on the Company
or its future operations.
CONTINGENCY PLANS. If there are severe temporary disruptions in our cash flow as
a result of disruptions in our tenants' or mortgagors' cash flow because of
delays in Medicare or Medicaid reimbursements or due to other Year 2000 issues
encountered by our tenants and mortgagors, we would slow our investment activity
or seek additional liquidity from our lenders.
Readers are cautioned that most of the statements contained in the "Year 2000
Issue" paragraphs are forward looking and should be read in conjunction with the
Company's disclosures under the heading "CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE REGARDING FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS" set forth below.
<PAGE>
CAUTIONARY LANGUAGE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical factual
statements are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The statements include, among other
things, statements regarding the intent, belief or expectations of the Company
and its officers and can be identified by the use of terminology such as "may",
"will", "expect", "believe", "intend", "plan", "estimate", "should" and other
comparable terms or the negative thereof. In addition, the Company, through its
senior management, from time to time makes forward looking oral and written
public statements concerning the Company's expected future operations and other
developments. Shareholders and investors are cautioned that, while forward
looking statements reflect the Company's good faith beliefs and best judgment
based upon current information, they are not guarantees of future performance
and are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Actual results
may differ materially from the expectations contained in the forward looking
statements as a result of various factors. Such factors include (i)
legislative, regulatory, or other changes in the healthcare industry at the
local, state or federal level which increase the costs of or otherwise affect
the operations of the Company's lessees; (ii) changes in the reimbursement
available to the Company's lessees and mortgagors by governmental or private
payors, including changes in Medicare and Medicaid payment levels and the
availability and cost of third party insurance coverage; (iii) competition for
lessees and mortgagors, including with respect to new leases and mortgages and
the renewal or roll-over of existing leases; (iv) competition for the
acquisition and financing of health care facilities; (v) the ability of the
Company's lessees and mortgagors to operate the Company's properties in a manner
sufficient to maintain or increase revenues and to generate sufficient income to
make rent and loan payments; and, (vi) changes in national or regional economic
conditions, including changes in interest rates and the availability and cost of
capital to the Company and (vii) the general uncertainty inherent in the Year
2000 issue, particularly the uncertainty of the Year 2000 readiness of third
parties who are material to the Company's business, such as public or private
healthcare reimbursers, over whom the Company has no control with the result
that the Company cannot ensure its ability to timely and cost-effectively avert
or resolve problems associated with the Year 2000 issue that may affect its
operations and business.
