NOTE I - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components. The adoption of this
Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity.
Statement 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's marketable
securities and foreign currency translation adjustments to be included in other
comprehensive income. Prior to adoption of Statement 130, unrealized gains and
losses were reported separately in shareholders' equity. Prior year financial
statements have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement
130.

During the first six months of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income
amounted to $27,121,000 and $22,424,000, respectively.

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

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At June 30, 1998, the Company's net real estate investments totaled
approximately $890,029,000, which included 56 skilled nursing facilities, 130
assisted living facilities, 15 retirement centers, six specialty care facilities
and two behavioral care facilities. The Company funds its investments through a
combination of long-term and short-term financing, utilizing both debt and
equity.

As of June 30, 1998, the Company had shareholders' equity of $570,607,000 and a
total outstanding debt balance of $337,067,000, which represents a debt to
equity ratio of 0.59 to 1.0.

In March 1998, the Company completed the sale of $100 million of 7.625% Senior
Unsecured Notes due March 15, 2008.

In March 1998, the Company issued 913,242 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par
value per share, at the price of $27.375 per share, which generated net proceeds
to the Company of $23,721,000.

In May 1998, the Company issued 3,000,000 shares of 8.875% Cumulative Redeemable
Preferred Stock at the price of $25.00 per share, which generated net proceeds
to the Company of $72,523,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the proceeds derived from the
Company's capital raising activities were used to invest in additional health
care properties and reduce bank debt under the Company's revolving line of
credit arrangements.

As of June 30, 1998, the Company had effective shelf registrations on file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under which the Company may issue up to
$441,269,000 of securities including debt, convertible debt, common and
preferred stock. The Company anticipates issuing securities under such shelf
registrations to invest in additional health care facilities and to repay
borrowings under the Company's line of credit arrangements.

As of June 30, 1998, the Company had approximately $239,345,000 in unfunded
commitments. Under the Company's line of credit arrangements, available funding
totaled $95,400,000, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of the
line of credit arrangements. The Company believes its liquidity and various
sources of available capital are sufficient to fund operations, finance future
investments, and meet debt service and dividend requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 were $23,159,000 as compared
with $18,448,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1997. Revenue growth
resulted primarily from increased operating lease income of $4,164,000,
increased interest income of $123,000 and increased loan and commitment fees of
$569,000 as a result of additional real estate investments made during the past
twelve months.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were $44,385,000 as compared
with $35,017,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of
$9,368,000 or 27%. Revenue growth resulted primarily from increased operating
lease income of $6,845,000, increased interest income of $1,429,000, and
increased loan and commitment fees of $1,211,000 as a result of additional real
estate investments made during the past twelve months.

<PAGE>   11



The growth in income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 was
offset by prepayment fees during the second quarter of 1997 of $477,000. There
were no such prepayment fees during the first six months of 1998.

Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1998 totaled $8,420,000, an
increase of $1,900,000 from expenses of $6,520,000 for the same period in 1997.
Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1998 totaled $16,237,000, an increase
of $2,974,000 from expenses of $13,263,000 for the same period in 1997. The
increases in total expenses for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1998 were related to an increase in interest expense, an additional expense
associated with the provision for depreciation and an increase in general and
administrative expenses.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998 was $4,461,000 as
compared to $3,752,000 for the same period in 1997. For the six month period
ended June 30, 1998, interest expense totaled $8,701,000 as compared to
$7,763,000 for the same period in 1997. The increase in the 1998 period was
primarily due to the issuance of $80,000,000 Senior Notes in April 1997 and the
issuance of $100,000,000 Senior Notes in March 1998. The increases in the 1998
periods were offset by the amount of capitalized interest recorded during the
first six months of 1998.

The Company capitalizes certain interest costs associated with funds used to
finance the construction of properties owned directly by the Company. The amount
capitalized is based upon the borrowings outstanding during the construction
period using the rate of interest which approximates the Company's cost of
financing. The Company's interest expense is reduced by the amount capitalized.
Capitalized interest for the three and six month periods in 1998 totaled
$1,617,000, and $2,843,000, respectively, as compared with $381,000 and $628,000
for the same periods in 1997.

The provision for depreciation for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1998 totaled $2,292,000 and $4,162,000, respectively, increases of
$1,016,000 and $1,701,000 over the comparable periods in 1997 as a result of
additional investments in properties owned directly by the Company.

General and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1998 totaled $1,336,000 and $2,717,000, respectively, as compared with
$1,181,000 and $2,361,000 for the same periods in 1997. The expenses for the
three and six month periods in 1998 were 5.77% and 6.12% of revenues as compared
with 6.40% and 6.74% for the same periods in 1997.

Dividend expense, associated with the Company's outstanding preferred stock, for
the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 totaled $832,000 and
$832,000 respectively. There were no such dividend payments in the same periods
in 1997.

As a result of the various factors mentioned above, net income available to
common shareholders for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1998 was
$13,907,000, or $0.54 per diluted share, and $27,316,000, or $1.09 per diluted
share, respectively, as compared with $11,928,000, or $0.54 per diluted share,
and $21,754,000, or $1.05 per diluted share for the comparable periods in 1997.
Net income for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 1997 included
$477,000, or $0.02 per share, of prepayment fees. There were no such prepayment
fees in the same period in 1998.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

During the past three years, inflation has not significantly affected the
earnings of the Company because of the moderate inflation rate. Additionally,
earnings of the Company are primarily long-term investments with fixed interest
rates. These investments are mainly financed with a combination of equity,
senior notes and borrowings under the revolving lines of credit. During
inflationary periods, which generally are accompanied by rising interest rates,
the Company's ability to grow may be adversely affected because the yield on new
investments may increase at a slower rate than new borrowing costs. Presuming
the current inflation rate remains moderate and long-term interest rates do not
increase significantly, the Company believes that equity and debt financing will
continue to be available.

OTHER INFORMATION

This document and supporting schedules may contain "forward-looking" statements
as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties,
which may cause the Company's actual results in the future to differ materially
from expected results. These risks and uncertainties include, among others,
competition in the financing of health care facilities, the availability of
capital, and regulatory and other changes in the health care sector, as
described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company has assessed its current computer software for proper functioning
with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The year 2000 issue and
related costs are not expected to have a material impact on the operations of
the Company.

Toledo, Ohio, April 21, 1998........HEALTH CARE REIT, INC. (NYSE/HCN) today
reported record operating results for the first quarter of 1998. Funds from
operations (FFO) achieved a record level of $15,279,000, or $0.62 per diluted
share, for the three months ended March 31, 1998, an 8.8 percent per share
increase from $11,011,000, or $0.57 per diluted share, in the prior year.

In addition, the company announced that upon a review of its operating results
and financial condition, the Board of Directors voted to declare a dividend for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998, of $0.545 per share as compared with $0.525
per share for the same period in 1997.

The dividend is a one-half cent increase from the dividend paid for the fourth
quarter of 1997 and represents the 108th consecutive dividend payment. The
dividend will be payable May 20, 1998, to shareholders of record on May 5, 1998.

Net income for the first quarter of 1998 totaled $13,409,000, or $0.54 per
diluted share, on revenue of $21,226,000, as compared with net income of
$9,826,000, or $0.51 per diluted share, on revenue of $16,569,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997.

In comparing the results for the first quarter of 1998 with the corresponding
period of the prior year, George Chapman, chairman and chief executive officer,
noted that the increased level of earnings was positively influenced by a higher
level of rental income. Operating lease revenue for the three months ended March
31, 1998, increased $2,681,000 over the corresponding period in 1997 from
$4,963,000 to $7,644,000. The growth in rental income resulted primarily from
additional real estate investments made in 1997 and the first quarter of 1998 of
$262,646,000 and $110,175,000, respectively.

Chapman further noted that the first quarter investment activity contributed to
a 37 percent increase in total assets, which at March 31, 1998, totaled
$836,006,000 as compared with total assets of $608,432,000 at March 31, 1997.

"The first quarter investment activity reflects the strength and breadth of our
investment strategy," added Chapman. "Our continued focus on providing growth
capital to emerging health care operators has produced consistent investment
results and generated strong earnings growth. At the end of the first quarter
our unfunded commitments totaled $257 million, which we anticipate funding
during the next 12 to 15 months. We expect continued success throughout the
balance of the year."

During the first quarter of 1998, the company completed the sale of $100 million
of 7.625 percent senior unsecured notes due March 15, 2008. The notes are rated
"Ba1" by Moody's Investors Service, "BBB-" by Standard & Poor's Corporation and
"BBB-" by Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co.

During the first three months of 1998, the company completed a secondary sale of
913,242 shares of common stock, which generated net proceeds of approximately
$23.7 million. The net proceeds derived from the offering of common stock and
the sale of notes were used to invest in additional health care properties and
repay borrowings under the company's revolving credit lines.
