REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
Shareholders and Directors
Health Care REIT, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Health Care

statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three

financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14 (a). These
financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedules based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Health Care REIT,
Inc. at December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended

Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedules, when considered
in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly

Health Care REIT, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS
INDUSTRY
The Company is a self-administered real estate investment trust that invests
primarily in long-term care facilities, which include nursing homes, assisted
living facilities, and retirement centers. The Company also invests in specialty
care facilities.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly owned subsidiaries after the elimination of all significant
intercompany accounts and transactions.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
LOANS RECEIVABLE
Loans receivable consist of long-term mortgage loans, construction-period loans
maturing in two years or less, and working capital loans. Interest income on
loans is recognized as earned based upon the principal amount outstanding. The
loans are generally collateralized by a first or second mortgage on or
assignment of partnership interest in the related facilities which consist of
nursing homes, assisted living facilities, retirement centers, behavioral care
facilities, and specialty care hospitals.
OPERATING LEASE PROPERTIES
Certain properties owned by the Company are leased under operating leases and
are recorded at cost. Impairment losses are recorded when events or changes in
circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset is greater than its fair
value. Management assesses the recoverability of the carrying value of its
assets on a property by property basis. Depreciation is provided for at rates
which are expected to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated
useful lives using the straight-line method. The leases provide for payment of
all taxes, insurance and maintenance by the lessees. In general, operating
lease income includes base rent payments plus fixed annual rent increases,
which are recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum lease period.
This income is greater than the amount of cash received during the first half of
the lease term.
DIRECT FINANCING LEASES
Certain properties owned by the Company are subject to long-term leases which
are accounted for by the direct financing method. The leases provide for payment
of all taxes, insurance and maintenance by the lessees. The leases are generally
for a term of 20 years and include an option to purchase the properties
generally after a period of five years. Option prices equal or exceed the
Company's original cost of the property. Income from direct financing leases is
recorded based upon the implicit rate of interest over the lease term. This
income is greater than the amount of cash received during the first six to seven
years of the lease term.
CAPITALIZATION OF CONSTRUCTION PERIOD INTEREST
The Company capitalizes interest costs associated with funds used to finance the
construction of facilities. 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.

Health Care REIT, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS (CONTINUED)
ALLOWANCE FOR LOSSES
The allowance for losses is maintained at a level believed adequate to absorb
potential losses in the Company's loans receivable. The determination of the
allowance is based on a quarterly evaluation of these loans, including general
economic conditions and estimated collectibility of loan payments.
DEFERRED LOAN EXPENSES
Deferred loan expenses are costs incurred in acquiring financing for properties.
The Company amortizes these costs by the straight-line method over the term of
the debt.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and cash equivalents consist of all highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of three months or less.
INVESTMENT SECURITIES
Management determines the appropriate classification of a security at the time
of acquisition and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
If there is a readily determinable fair value, available-for-sale equity
securities are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported
in a separate component of shareholders' equity. Other equity securities are
stated at historical cost. Debt securities which are classified as held to
maturity are stated at historical cost. Investment securities include the common
stock of two corporations, which were obtained by the Company at no cost, the
fair value of the common stock related to warrants in one corporation in excess
of the exercise price, the preferred stock of two private corporations and
subordinated debt securities in three corporations.
LOAN AND COMMITMENT FEES
Loan and commitment fees are earned by the Company for its agreement to provide
direct and standby financing to, and credit enhancement for, owners of health
care facilities. The Company amortizes loan and commitment fees over the initial
fixed term of the lease, the mortgage or the construction period related to such
investments.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX
No provision has been made for federal income taxes since the Company has
elected to be treated as a real estate investment trust under the applicable
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, and the Company believes that it has
met the requirements for qualification as such for each taxable year. See Note
8.
NET INCOME PER SHARE
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 128,
Earnings per Share. Statement 128 replaced the calculation of primary and fully
diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Unlike
primary earnings per share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive
effects of options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per
share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted earnings per
share. All earnings per share amounts for all periods have been presented, and
where appropriate, restated to conform to the Statement 128 requirements.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARD
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130,
Comprehensive Income, which is effective for periods beginning after December
31, 1997. Statement 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income and its components. The Company will adopt Statement 130 in
the first quarter of 1998 and the impact will not be significant.

totaling $40,567,000 into operating leases. This noncash activity is
appropriately not reflected in the accompanying statements of cash flows.
4. CONCENTRATION OF RISK
As of December 31, 1997, long-term care facilities comprised 86% of the
Company's real estate investments and were located in 29 states. Investments in
assisted living facilities comprised 48% of the Company's real estate
investments. The Company's investments with the three largest operators totaled
approximately 27%. No single operator has a real estate investment balance which
exceeds 10% of total real estate investments, including credit enhancements.

6. BORROWINGS UNDER LINE OF CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS
AND RELATED ITEMS
The Company has an unsecured credit arrangement with a consortium of twelve
banks providing for a revolving line of credit (revolving credit) in the amount
of $175,000,000 which expires on March 31, 2000. The agreement specifies that
borrowings under the revolving credit are subject to interest payable in periods
no longer than three months on either the agent bank's base rate of interest or
1.125% over LIBOR interest rate (based at the Company's option). The effective
interest rate at December 31, 1997 was 7.08%. In addition, the Company pays a
commitment fee ranging from an annual rate of 0.20% to 0.375% and an annual
agent's fee of $50,000. Principal is due upon expiration of the agreement. The
Company has another line of credit with a bank for a total of $10,000,000 which
expires January 31, 1999. Borrowings under this line of credit are subject to
interest at the bank's prime rate of interest (8.5% at December 31, 1997) and
are due on demand.
The following information relates to aggregate borrowings under the line of
credit arrangements (in thousands except percentages):
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
Year Ended December 31

---------------------------------------------------------------
<S> <C> <C> <C>
Balance outstanding at December 31 $ 78,400 $ 92,125 $ 106,700
Maximum amount outstanding at any
month end 158,950 142,600 119,100
Average amount outstanding (total
of daily principal balances
divided by days in year) 78,826 110,667 88,851
Weighted average interest rate
(actual interest expense divided
by average borrowings outstanding) 7.63% 7.72% 8.41%
</TABLE>
At December 31, 1997, the Company's variable interest rate debt exceeded its
variable interest rate assets, presenting an exposure to rising interest rates.
The Company may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to
hedge variable interest rate exposure. Such decisions are principally based on
the Company's policy to match its variable rate investments with comparable
borrowings, but is also based on the general trend in interest rates at the
applicable dates and the Company's perception of future volatility of interest
rates.
Interest paid amounted to $16,444,000, $14,211,000 and $13,084,000 for 1997,
1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company capitalized interest costs of
$2,306,000 and $287,000 during 1997 and 1996, respectively, related to
construction of real property owned by the Company.
7. SENIOR NOTES AND OTHER LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
The Company has $162,000,000 of unsecured Senior Notes with interest ranging
from 7.06% to 8.34% and maturing at various dates to 2003.

$90,000; 2000 - $35,099,000; 2001 - $10,109,000; and 2002 - $20,121,000; 2003
and beyond - $82,009,000.
8. STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS AND RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS
The Company's 1995 Stock Incentive Plan authorized up to 2,200,000 shares of
Common Stock to be issued at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The 1995
Plan replaced the 1985 Incentive Stock Option Plan. The options granted under
the 1985 Plan continue to vest through 2005 and expire ten years from the date
of grant. Officers and key salaried employees of the Company are eligible to
participate in the 1995 Plan. The 1995 Plan allows for the issuance of stock
options, restricted stock grants and DERs. In addition, during 1997 the Company
adopted a Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors which authorizes up to
142,000 shares to be issued.
The following summarizes the activity in the Plans for the years ended December
31 (shares in thousands):

Weighted average fair value

year $ 1.97 $ 1.78 $ 1.54
</TABLE>
The stock options generally vest over a five year period and expire ten years
from the date of grant.
The Company issued 157,000 restricted shares during 1997, including 2,000 shares
for directors. Vesting periods range from six months for directors to periods of
five to ten years for officers. Expense, which is recognized as the shares vest
based on the market value at the date of the award, totalled $257,000 in 1997.
The Company has elected to follow APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees in accounting for its employee stock options as permitted
under FASB statement No. 123 ("FASB 123"), Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation, and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense for the stock
option grants when the market price on the underlying stock on the date of grant
equals the exercise price of the Company's employee stock option.
Pro forma information has been determined as if the Company had accounted for
its employee stock options and restricted shares under the fair value method.
The pro forma disclosures are not likely to be representative of the effects on
reported net income for future years because they do not take into consideration
stock based incentives granted prior to 1995. The fair value of each option
grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following range of assumptions: risk-free interest rates from
5.10% to 7.60%, dividend yields of 8%, expected lives of seven years, and
expected volatility of .18% to .21%. Had compensation cost for the stock based
compensation plans been determined in accordance with FASB 123, net income would
have been reduced by $212,000, $105,000, and $32,000 in 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.
The Company has a 401-(k) Profit Sharing Plan covering all eligible employees.
Under the Plan, eligible employees may make contributions, and the Company may
make a profit sharing contribution. Company contributions to this Plan totaled
$110,000, $90,000, and $6,000 in 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively.

9. DISTRIBUTIONS
To qualify as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes,
95% of taxable income (not including capital gains) must be distributed to
shareholders. Real estate investment trusts which do not distribute a certain
amount of current year taxable income in the current year are also subject to a
4% federal excise tax. The Company's excise tax expense was $360,000, $317,000
and $326,000 for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Undistributed net income for federal income tax purposes amounted to $15,926,000
at December 31, 1997. The principal reasons for the difference between
undistributed net income for federal income tax purposes and financial statement
purposes are the use of the operating method of accounting for leases for
federal income tax purposes and the provision for losses for reporting purposes
versus bad debt expense for tax purposes.
Cash distributions paid to shareholders, for federal income tax purposes, are as
follows:

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
At December 31, 1997, the Company had outstanding commitments to provide
financing for facilities in the approximate amount of $275,017,000. The above
commitments are generally on similar terms as existing financings of a like
nature with rates of return to the Company based upon current market rates at
the time of the commitment.
The Company has entered into several agreements to purchase health care
facilities, or the loans with respect thereto, in the event that the present
owners default upon their obligations. In consideration for these agreements,
the Company receives and recognizes fees annually related to these agreements.
Although the terms of these agreements vary, the purchase prices are equal to
the amount of the outstanding obligations financing the facility. These
agreements expire through the year 2005. At December 31, 1997, obligations under
these agreements for which the Company was contingently liable aggregated
approximately $15,565,000, all of which were with related parties.
11. MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
Through November 30, 1995, the Company had a management agreement with First
Toledo Advisory Company (the Manager). Two of the Company's directors were
officers and co-owners of the Manager. The Company accrued a fee to the Manager
as defined in the Management Agreement. On November 30, 1995, the Manager merged
with and into the Company pursuant to a Revised Merger Agreement (the "Merger").
Consideration for this transaction totaled approximately $5,048,000 which was
solely comprised of 282,407 shares of the Company's common stock. In addition,
the Company acquired approximately $46,000 in net assets and incurred
approximately $792,000 of related transaction expenses. The Merger was a
tax-free reorganization. The consideration, plus related transaction expenses,
were accounted for as a settlement of a management contract.

12. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS PLAN
Under the terms of a Shareholder Rights Plan approved by the Board of Directors
in July 1994, a Preferred Share Right (Right) is attached to and automatically
trades with each outstanding share of Common Stock.
The Rights, which are redeemable, will become exercisable only in the event that
any person or group becomes a holder of 15% or more of the Common Stock, or
commences a tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in that
person or group owning at least 15% of the Common Stock. Once the Rights become
exercisable, they entitle all other shareholders to purchase one one-thousandth
of a share of a new series of junior participating preferred stock for an
exercise price of $48.00. The Rights will expire on August 5, 2004 unless
exchanged earlier or redeemed earlier by the Company for $.01 per Right at any
time before public disclosure that a 15% position has been acquired.

14. DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of
each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that
value.
Mortgage Loans--The fair value of all mortgage loans, except those matched with
debt, is estimated by discounting the future cash flows using the current rates
at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings
and for the same remaining maturities. Mortgage loans matched with debt are
presumed to be at fair value.
Working Capital and Construction Loans--The carrying amount is a reasonable
estimate of fair value for working capital and construction loans because the
interest earned on these instruments is variable.
Cash and Cash Equivalents--The carrying amount approximates fair value because
of the short maturity of these financial instruments.
Investment Securities --The assets are recorded at their fair market value.

14. DISCLOSURE ABOUT FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
Health Care REIT, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Borrowings Under Line of Credit Arrangements--The carrying amount of the line of
credit approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate
adjustable.
Senior Notes and Industrial Development Bonds--The fair value of the senior
notes payable and the industrial development bonds was estimated by discounting
the future cash flow using the current borrowing rate available to the Company
for similar debt.
Mortgage Notes Payable--Mortgage notes payable is a reasonable estimate of fair
value because they are matched with loans receivable.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company's financial
instruments at December 31, 1997 and 1996 are as follows (in thousands):
