PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following is a summary of certain information contained elsewhere or
incorporated by reference in this Prospectus. This summary is not intended to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, and should be read in
conjunction with, the detailed information, including "Risk Factors," and
supplemental and historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
appearing elsewhere herein or incorporated by reference in this Prospectus.
Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Prospectus gives effect to
the 3-for-2 stock split effected June 4, 1996 and the acquisition of the
partnership interests in Premier Rehabilitation Centers in January 1997 in a
transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests, and assumes that the
Underwriters' over-allotment option is not exercised. Unless the context
suggests otherwise, references in this Prospectus to "Res-Care" or the "Company"
include Res-Care, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
THE COMPANY
Res-Care is a leading provider of residential, training, educational and
support services to populations with special needs, including persons with
developmental and other disabilities and at-risk and troubled youths. The
services provided by the Company have historically been provided by state and
local government agencies and not-for-profit organizations. The Company's
programs include an array of services provided in both residential and
non-residential settings for adults and youths with mental retardation or other
developmental disabilities ("MR/DD") and disabilities caused by acquired brain
injury ("ABI"), and youths who have severe behavioral disorders, who are from
disadvantaged backgrounds or who have entered the juvenile justice system.
Since September 30, 1992, the Company has experienced significant growth in
the number of persons served, revenues and operating income. At February 28,
1997, Res-Care was providing services to approximately 7,600 persons with
special needs compared to approximately 3,300 persons at September 30, 1992,
representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 21%. Res-Care
currently provides services to approximately 5,000 persons with disabilities in
larger facilities, group homes, personal residences or other community-based
programs in 17 states and to approximately 2,600 at-risk and troubled youths in
federally-funded Job Corps centers and juvenile treatment programs operated for
state and local agencies in seven states and Puerto Rico. The Company's revenues
and operating income have increased from $90.8 million and $4.9 million for the
year ended December 31, 1992 to $224.3 million and $15.9 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996, representing compound annual growth rates of
approximately 25% and 34%, respectively.
There is a growing trend throughout the United States toward privatization
of social services functions for special needs populations as governments of all
types face continuing pressure to control costs and improve the quality of
services. The markets for services for special needs populations in the United
States are large, growing and highly fragmented as evidenced by the following
industry estimates:
- Approximately 1.6% of the nation's population, or 4.2 million persons,
have some level of developmental disability to the extent that
professional services are required throughout their lives;
- Funding for MR/DD services totaled approximately $23.0 billion in 1996;
- Over 4,000 providers of MR/DD services operate over 10,000 facilities and
programs;
- In 1994, an estimated 2.7 million juvenile arrests accounted for 19% of
all arrests and 35% of all property crime arrests;
- The number of youths in the United States between the ages of 14 and 17
years, the highest risk juvenile group, is expected to increase 20% from
14 million in 1994 to 17 million in 2005;
- Reports of child abuse and neglect have grown 45% from 2.0 million in
1985 to 2.9 million in 1993; and
- Most of the estimated 6,000 residential youth services providers are
small and operate in limited geographic areas.
The Company believes it has significant opportunities to participate in the
growth and consolidation of these markets because of its quality programs and
operating systems, its financial strength, the economies of scale it can achieve
and its experience working with special needs populations and government
agencies.

<PAGE> 5
Res-Care strives to provide quality and caring services through the
operation of efficient and flexible programs. To achieve this goal, the
Company's business strategy is based upon the following key elements: (i)
continuing to expand upon the Company's leadership position as a provider of
disabilities services; (ii) leveraging the Company's 20 years of experience in
providing training and support services for disadvantaged youths and other
special needs populations to become a leading provider of services to at-risk
and troubled youths; (iii) focusing on quality management of existing programs
through models of ongoing program evaluation developed by the Company and (iv)
implementing and maintaining high quality, cost-effective alternatives to
programs operated directly by governmental entities and private agencies by
providing proven management systems and procedures that assure efficient
application of financial and human resources.
Res-Care's growth strategy is to (i) pursue acquisitions; (ii) add programs
and expand its existing programs in markets in which it currently operates and
(iii) expand into additional geographic areas in the United States. The markets
for the Company's services are highly fragmented, and the Company believes that
there are significant opportunities to enhance its market positions through an
active acquisition program in the disabilities and at-risk and troubled youths
sectors that will enable the Company to expand its operations into new
geographic areas, add program offerings and establish new relationships with
governmental entities. The Company intends to build upon its established
relationships with governmental entities to expand its current programs and
obtain contracts for additional programs in existing markets, and to develop new
programs in response to societal trends and the needs of governmental agencies.
The Company also intends to expand its programs to additional geographic areas
which management identifies as having favorable reimbursement and operating
environments. Since September 1, 1996, the Company has obtained contracts for or
acquired operations of 36 facilities and programs serving approximately 800
persons with developmental and other disabilities and 20 facilities and programs
serving approximately 500 at-risk and troubled youths.
The Company was incorporated in Kentucky in 1974. Its principal executive
office is located at 10140 Linn Station Road, Louisville, Kentucky 40223, and
its telephone number is (502) 394-2100.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Company continues to expand its business largely through acquisitions
and new contracts for services. The following developments have occurred since
September 1, 1996:
Division for Persons with Disabilities ("DPD")
- In January 1997, the Company acquired the partnership interests in
Premier Rehabilitation Centers ("Premier"), a privately-owned provider of
services and support to approximately 77 persons with ABI and related
neurological disorders. Premier operates programs in St. Louis, Chicago and
Miami and generated annual revenues of approximately $5.9 million for the year
ended December 31, 1996.
- In Ohio, the Company acquired the stock of R.A.I.S.E., a privately-owned
corporation that provides an array of supported living and related services to
approximately 36 individuals with MR/DD.
- In New Jersey, approximately 50 individuals with MR/DD have selected the
Company to provide supported living services as part of a downsizing plan of a
state facility. The Company expects to begin providing these services by
mid-1997.
- In Kansas, the Company acquired a leasehold interest in an 81-bed
facility and the stock of Southwind Residential Services, a privately-owned
corporation that provides supported living services. The two operations serve a
total of approximately 100 individuals with MR/DD.
- In California, Res-Care assumed the operation of and entered into a
one-year lease agreement to provide for the orderly transition and downsizing of
Meadowview Park, a 59-bed facility in Orange County, and acquired Casa de Vida,
a 99-bed facility in San Luis Obispo. In addition, the Company has entered into
an agreement to acquire the operations of four six-bed group homes serving a
total of 24 individuals in the Los Angeles area, and was awarded grants for the
development of four six-bed group homes and a day program in the Sacramento
area.
4
<PAGE> 6
- In Texas, the Company acquired the assets of Community Voices, an
operator of day programs serving approximately 80 individuals with MR/DD,
approximately 40 of whom reside in Res-Care group homes.
- In Kentucky, the Company purchased the assets of a program serving 128
individuals with MR/DD previously owned by Agape Community Services, a
not-for-profit agency.
- In Florida, the Company entered into a transitional management agreement
on an emergency basis to manage the operations of Community Environments, a
not-for-profit provider of disabilities services and youth services, with
capacity to serve approximately 160 individuals with MR/DD and approximately 15
at-risk youths.
- In Louisiana, the Company acquired the assets of Gulf States Health, an
operator of 14 six-bed group homes in the New Orleans area.
Division for Youth Services ("DYS")
- In Colorado, the Company's 80%-owned subsidiary, Youthtrack, Inc.
("Youthtrack"), acquired the operating assets of Community Learning Centers, a
not-for-profit operator of community-based facilities and services for troubled
youths, serving approximately 400 youths at six residential treatment centers,
four medium secure detention centers, four tracker/mentor programs, two proctor
parent programs, two day treatment programs and a personalized apartment living
program.
- In Georgia, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, Alternative Youth
Services, Inc. ("AYS"), entered into a long-term management contract to operate
the Georgia Center for Youth, a program offering residential and educational
services to up to 60 at-risk youths in a 24-hour residential program on a
160-acre campus and at an alternative school the center operates off-site that
also serves additional students referred by the local school district.
- In Kentucky, AYS acquired the assets of a program previously owned by
Community Youth Services, offering residential and educational services to more
than 50 at-risk youths in community homes in Louisville, Elizabethtown and
Mayfield, Kentucky. In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with the
U.S. Department of Labor ("DOL") to perform certain support services at the
Great Onyx Job Corps Center, a 214-student center operated by the U.S.
Department of the Interior in Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, through October 31, 1997.
- In New York, the Company was awarded a new contract by the DOL to
continue to operate the 250-student South Bronx Job Corps Center, a contract
which includes the provision of certain support services at Gateway Job Corps
Center, a 224-student center operated by the U.S. Department of the Interior.

<PAGE> 9
RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information contained or incorporated by reference
in this Prospectus, the following risk factors should be considered carefully in
evaluating an investment in the Common Stock offered hereby.
SUBSTANTIAL DEPENDENCE ON GOVERNMENTAL REIMBURSEMENT
In the year ended December 31, 1996, approximately 81% of the Company's
revenues were attributable to Medicaid-funded disabilities services programs,
and the substantial majority of the remaining revenues were attributable to
federal Job Corps contracts. Governmental agencies have undertaken cost
containment measures designed to limit payments to health care and other service
providers, and these efforts are expected to continue. Various proposals are
currently under consideration to revamp the federally-funded Medicaid programs,
including efforts to introduce managed care and other arrangements in which
financial risks associated with service delivery are retained by the provider
rather than by the funding source. State regulatory agencies which administer
Medicaid programs have substantial discretion with regard to the implementation
of Medicaid reimbursement programs and with regard to the audit and inspection
of Medicaid programs. The Company is currently engaged in litigation with the
State of Indiana regarding reimbursement rates at certain large facilities in
Indiana which, if adversely determined, could adversely affect the Company's
business and results of operations. The Commonwealth of Kentucky has challenged
in an audit proceeding certain costs associated with programs managed by the
Company in Kentucky, which could also lead to retroactive rate adjustments to
the provider of record; the provider of record has recently filed a declaratory
action against Kentucky in an effort to resolve this matter. Various other
states have initiatives underway to change Medicaid reimbursement methodologies.
No assurance can be given that developments in one or more jurisdictions will
not adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of
operations. See "Business -- Government Regulation and Reimbursement" and
"--Legal Proceedings."
GROWTH STRATEGY; RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FUTURE ACQUISITIONS AND NEW CONTRACTS
Most of the Company's facilities and programs are operating at or near full
capacity. Moreover, in light of governmental budgetary pressures and competitive
forces, there has been downward pressure on reimbursement rates. Thus, the
Company's ability to expand its revenue base is dependent to a significant
extent on its ability to effect acquisitions and to obtain new contracts. The
Company regularly reviews acquisition opportunities and opportunities for new
contracts and periodically engages in discussions regarding possible
acquisitions and contracts. Although the Company currently has no agreement or
understanding with respect to any material acquisition, the Company continually
evaluates opportunities to expand its business through acquisitions of other
companies that provide services to various special needs populations and from
time to time enters into discussions and letters of intent which may lead to
acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
identify acquisition or new contract prospects on terms favorable to the Company
or in a timely manner, enter into acceptable agreements or close any such
transactions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve
its growth strategy, and any failure to do so could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations and
ability to sustain growth. In addition, the Company believes that it will
compete for acquisition candidates and management contracts with a variety of
other prospective bidders, some of which have greater resources than the
Company. Increased competition for such acquisition candidates and management
contracts could have the effect of increasing the costs to the Company of
pursuing this growth strategy, could reduce the number of attractive candidates
to be acquired or could reduce the profitability of management contracts. Future
acquisitions and efforts to obtain management contracts could divert
management's attention from the daily operations of the Company and otherwise
require additional management, operational and financial resources. Moreover,
there can be no assurance that the Company will successfully integrate such new
operations into its business or operate such acquisitions profitably.
Acquisitions may also involve a number of special risks including adverse
short-term effects on the Company's business and results of operations;
dependence on retaining key personnel; amortization of acquired intangible
assets and risks associated with unanticipated liabilities and contingencies.
8
<PAGE> 10
The Company may require additional debt or equity financing for future
acquisitions, which may not be available to the Company on terms favorable to
it, if at all. To the extent the Company uses its capital stock for all or a
portion of the consideration to be paid for future acquisitions, dilution may be
experienced by existing shareholders, including purchasers of Common Stock in
this offering. In the event that the Company's capital stock does not maintain
sufficient value or acquisition candidates are unwilling to accept the Company's
capital stock as consideration for the sale of their businesses, the Company may
be required to utilize more of its cash resources, if available, in order to
continue its acquisition program. If the Company does not have sufficient cash
resources or is not able to use its capital stock as consideration for
acquisitions, its growth through acquisitions could be limited.
UNCERTAIN ABILITY TO EXPAND YOUTH SERVICES OPERATIONS
Although Res-Care has operated Job Corps centers since 1976 and has
provided services for youths with developmental disabilities in its disabilities
services operations since 1978, the Company began intensive efforts to expand
its at-risk and troubled youth services operations in 1996 following the
formation of its Youthtrack and AYS subsidiaries. The Company has not yet
developed significant experience in operating such programs. No assurance can be
given that the Company will be able to generate sufficient revenues or
contribution margin to enable the Company to realize adequate returns on its
investment in this sector. The market for delivery of at-risk and troubled youth
services is highly competitive. Several of the Company's competitors have more
experience than does the Company in developing and implementing these services.
Due to the highly-fragmented nature of the youth services industry, the barriers
to entry remain low, and the Company may experience intensive competition as it
seeks to expand in this area, including competition from companies with
substantially greater resources than Res-Care. Moreover, the privatized
management of programs for at-risk and troubled youths has received varying
degrees of acceptance by state and local governmental authorities, and no
assurance can be given that the level of acceptance will rise or be maintained.
There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in its goal to
significantly increase the revenues and operating income attributable to its
at-risk and troubled youth services operations.
DEPENDENCE ON GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS
The Company conducts its business primarily under contracts with federal,
state and local governments and governmental agencies, and virtually all of the
Company's revenues are attributable to such contracts. The Company's cash flow
is subject to the receipt of sufficient funding and timely payment by applicable
governmental entities. If the appropriate governmental agency does not receive
sufficient appropriations to cover its contractual obligations, a contract may
be terminated or the Company's compensation may be deferred or reduced. A number
of federal, state and local governments, including certain of those with which
the Company has contracts, have experienced fiscal difficulties. Any deferral or
reduction in payment could have a material adverse effect on the Company's cash
flow. In addition, the Company is dependent on governmental entities for
referral of a sufficient number of individuals to occupy the Company's
facilities and programs. The failure of the Company to receive a sufficient
number of such referrals may have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company's contracts are typically subject to renewal (or in the case of
Job Corps contracts, extension) annually. The renewal and financial terms of
each contract are dependent upon many factors, including the quality and type of
services provided, governmental budget constraints, changes in government or
agency personnel and priorities or philosophies of governments or agencies with
respect to provision of services to various at-risk populations. Government and
agency contracts generally are subject to audits, reviews and investigations.
These audits, reviews and investigations typically involve a review of the
contractor's performance under the contract, its reported costs and its
compliance with applicable laws and regulations. In addition, some contracts are
subject to competitive bidding, and the Company's customers generally may
terminate their contracts with the Company for cause and upon certain other
specified conditions. The loss or renewal on less favorable terms of certain of
the Company's contracts could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, financial condition and results of operations.
9
<PAGE> 11
Approximately 18% of the Company's net revenues are attributable to Job
Corps contracts, awarded by the DOL. Performance at each Job Corps center is
ranked by the DOL using certain objective and subjective criteria, and contracts
for Job Corps centers with low performance rankings may not be extended or
successfully rebid. In 1996, the Company's contract to operate the Crystal
Springs, Mississippi Job Corps center was not extended for the full term of its
final contract year due to performance issues at that center. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Supplemental Financial Condition and Results of
Operations." In addition, the DOL has recently made efforts to encourage new
participants in the program, including minority-owned businesses, and several
companies with government defense contracting experience have begun to bid for
Job Corps contracts. The five-year contract for the operation of the Company's
Gulfport, Mississippi Job Corps center expires in October 1997 and the contract
is up for re-bid. There exists the risk that the contract to operate this center
will not be awarded to the Company, which would have an adverse effect on the
Company's revenues and net income. Although the Company has been able to retain
most of its Job Corps contracts in the past and was awarded a new Job Corps
contract in 1996 to operate the Edison Job Corps center, there can be no
assurance that the DOL will continue to extend the Company's Job Corps
contracts, or award the Company additional Job Corps contracts, in the future.
The Company has contracted with providers of record in various states to
manage and operate MR/DD facilities for them. In such cases, the Company is
dependent on the relationship between the state and local governments or
governmental agencies and the providers of record with which they contract. Each
state and local government or governmental agency may terminate or declare a
breach of contract with providers of record, may be denied federal matching
funds as partial reimbursement for certain program expenses or may reduce their
placement of individuals with, or the use of, such providers of record for
reasons that may be beyond the control of the Company. Such acts could adversely
affect the ability of the providers of record to pay the Company pursuant to
their subcontracts.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The Company is subject to extensive federal, state and local regulations
governing licensure, conduct of operations at existing facilities, construction
of new facilities, purchase or lease of existing facilities, addition of new
services, capital expenditures, cost containment and reimbursement for services
rendered. Failure by the Company to meet applicable standards could result in
the loss of a license, the delay or loss of reimbursement or the loss of an
ability to expand services. To date, loss of license has not been a significant
factor in the Company's operations. There can be no assurance that federal,
state or local governments will not impose additional restrictions on the
operations of the Company that might adversely affect its business, financial
condition and results of operations. See "Business -- Government Regulation and
Reimbursement."
FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS
The Company's quarterly results of operations may fluctuate significantly
as a result of a variety of factors, including the timing of acquisitions or the
opening of new programs, the timing of rate adjustments and the cumulative
effect of rate adjustments differing from previously estimated amounts. Results
for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future quarterly or annual
results. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Supplemental Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."
VOLATILITY OF MARKET PRICE
From time to time after this offering, there may be significant volatility
in the market price of the Common Stock. The Company believes that the current
market price of the Common Stock reflects expectations that the Company will be
able to continue to operate its programs profitably and to develop additional
and new programs at a significant rate and operate them profitably. If the
Company is unable to operate its programs profitably or develop new programs at
a pace that reflects the expectations of the market, investors could sell shares
of Common Stock at or after the time that it becomes apparent that such
expectations may not be realized, resulting in a decrease in the market price of
the Common Stock. In addition to the operating results of the Company, changes
in earnings estimates by analysts, changes in general conditions in the economy
or the financial markets or other developments affecting the Company or
10
<PAGE> 12
comparable companies within the privatization services industries could cause
the market price of the Common Stock to fluctuate substantially. In recent
years, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations.
This volatility has had a significant effect on the market prices of securities
issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance.
See "Price Range of Common Stock and Dividend Policy."
OPPOSITION TO PROGRAM LOCATION AND ADVERSE PUBLICITY
The Company's success in obtaining new contracts may depend, in part, upon
its ability to locate facilities that can be leased or acquired on favorable
terms by the Company. Group homes are generally located in residential
communities. Larger facilities for persons with disabilities and at-risk and
troubled youths may be in or near populated areas and, therefore, may generate
legal action or other forms of opposition from residents in areas surrounding a
proposed site. The Company's business also is subject to public scrutiny and,
consequently, could be significantly affected by negative publicity, negative
public reaction or governmental investigations with respect to the Company's
policies or operations or the actions of consumers under its care. The Company's
reputation is very important to the retention and procurement of contracts.
Negative publicity or a governmental investigation with respect to the Company's
policies or operations or the actions of individuals under its care could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
POTENTIAL LEGAL LIABILITY
The Company's management of its residential, training, educational and
support programs exposes it to potential third-party claims or litigation by
participants or other persons for wrongful death, personal injury or other
damages resulting from contact with Company facilities, programs, personnel or
participants. In addition, the Company's contracts and the laws of certain
states generally require the Company to maintain adequate insurance for its
operations and to indemnify the governmental agency against any damages to which
the governmental agency may be subject in connection with such claims or
litigation. The Company has, on occasion, been sued by third parties and
maintains an insurance program that provides coverage for certain liability
risks faced by the Company, including wrongful death, personal injury, bodily
injury or property damage to a third party where the Company is found to be
negligent. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's insurance will
be adequate to cover potential third-party claims. See "Business -- Legal
Proceedings."
DEPENDENCE ON SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND SKILLED PERSONNEL
The success of the Company is highly dependent upon the efforts and
abilities of Ronald G. Geary, its President and Chief Executive Officer, E.
Halsey Sandford, its Executive Vice President and Jeffrey M. Cross, its
Executive Vice President, Operations, Division for Persons with Disabilities. In
addition, although the Company's senior management team has been in place for a
number of years, the Company is currently engaged in nationwide searches for a
chief financial officer and a senior officer in charge of development
activities. The Company's at-risk and troubled youth services programs are
highly dependent upon the efforts of Donald B. Rice, President of Youthtrack and
Ralph G. Gronefeld, Jr., Vice President, AYS. The Company has entered into
separate employment agreements with each of the officers listed above containing
customary noncompetition, nondisclosure and nonsolicitation covenants. The loss
of the services of one or more senior executives could have a material adverse
effect upon the Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations. See "Management."
AVAILABILITY OF QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
The Company competes with many other providers of long-term care with
respect to attracting and retaining qualified and skilled personnel. A possible
shortage of professional personnel or direct service staff or other outside
pressures, including collective bargaining efforts, may require the Company to
enhance its wage and benefits package in order to compete in the hiring and
retention of such personnel. The Company will also be dependent upon the
available labor pool of semi-skilled and unskilled employees in each of the
markets in
11
<PAGE> 13
which it operates. The Company's labor costs are expected to increase, and there
can be no assurance that the Company can match an increase in such costs by
corresponding increases in reimbursement rates for services rendered by the
Company. Any significant failure to control its labor costs or to receive
increased reimbursement for such costs through rate increases would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations. See "Business -- Competition."
CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS
After completion of this offering, Mr. and Mrs. James Fornear and their
children will beneficially own approximately 26.5% of the outstanding shares of
Common Stock. As a result, these shareholders will be able to influence
significantly the outcome of matters requiring a shareholder vote, including the
election of members of the Board of Directors, and thereby exercise a
significant degree of control over the affairs and management of the Company.
See "Principal and Selling Shareholders."
COMPETITION
The provision of disabilities and youth services are subject to a number of
competitive factors, including quality of services provided, cost-effectiveness,
reporting and regulatory expertise, reputation in the community and the location
and appearance of facilities and programs. In addition to certain not-for-profit
organizations, including organizations affiliated with advocacy and sponsoring
groups, certain proprietary competitors operate in multiple jurisdictions and
may be well capitalized. The Company faces significant competition from
not-for-profit organizations and proprietary competitors in the states in which
it now operates and expects to face similar competition in any state that it may
enter in the future. Many of the Company's competitors have greater resources
than the Company. Such competition may adversely affect the Company's ability to
obtain new contracts and complete acquisitions on favorable terms. See
"Business -- Competition."
ENVIRONMENTAL AND EMPLOYEE SAFETY LAWS
The Company must comply with various federal and state laws and regulations
that govern the handling and disposal of medical and infectious waste in the
operation of its businesses. Failure to comply with these laws or regulations
could subject the Company to fines, criminal penalties and other enforcement
actions. The Company has developed and implemented policies with respect to the
handling and disposal of medical and infectious waste and believes it is in
compliance with such laws and regulations. Federal regulations promulgated by
the Occupational Safety and Health Administration impose additional requirements
on the Company with regard to protecting employees from exposure to bloodborne
pathogens. The Company believes that it has complied, and will continue to be
able to comply, with these regulations. However, there can be no assurance that
the regulations will not adversely affect the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations.
EFFECT OF ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS
The Company's Board of Directors has the authority to issue preferred stock
and to determine the price, rights, conversion ratios, preferences and
privileges of that stock without further vote or action by the holders of the
Common Stock. The rights of the holders of Common Stock will be subject to, and
may be adversely affected by, the rights, including economic rights, of the
holders of any shares of preferred stock. Any such issuance may discourage third
parties from attempting to acquire control of the Company. Furthermore, the
Company is subject to the anti-takeover provisions of the Kentucky Business
Corporation Act prohibiting the Company from engaging in a "business
combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a period of five years after
the date of the transaction in which the person first becomes an "interested
stockholder," unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed
manner. The application of this statute and certain other provisions of the
Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation also could have the
effect of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control of the
Company not approved by the Board of Directors, which could adversely affect the
market price of the Company's Common Stock.
12
<PAGE> 14
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Upon completion of this offering, the Company will have outstanding
11,783,703 shares of Common Stock, plus 1,132,017 shares of Common Stock
reserved for issuance upon exercise of options. Sales of a substantial number of
shares of Common Stock in the public market following this offering could
adversely affect the market price for the Company's Common Stock. Substantially
all of the shares of Common Stock to be outstanding after completion of this
offering will be either freely saleable or saleable subject to certain volume
and manner of sale restrictions under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.
The Company and its directors, executive officers and Selling Shareholders
who beneficially own in the aggregate 4,923,267 shares of Common Stock have
agreed not to publicly offer, sell or otherwise dispose of any of their shares
or options for a period of 90 days after the date of this Prospectus without the
prior written consent of J.C. Bradford & Co. However, J.C. Bradford & Co. may,
in its sole discretion and at any time without notice, release all or any
portion of the securities subject to such lockup agreements. See "Underwriting."
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
In response to the "safe harbor" provisions contained in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, the Company is including the following
cautionary statements that are intended to identify certain important factors
that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those
projected in forward-looking statements concerning the Company made by or on
behalf of the Company, whether contained herein or elsewhere.
The Company's growth in revenues and earnings per share has been directly
related to a considerable increase in the number of individuals served in its
Division for Persons with Disabilities and its Division for Youth Services. This
growth is largely dependent upon development-driven activities, including the
acquisitions of other businesses or facilities or of management contract rights
to operate facilities, the award of contracts to open new facilities or start
new operations or to assume management of facilities previously operated by
governmental agencies or not-for-profit organizations and the extension or
renewal of contracts previously awarded to the Company. The Company often makes
forward-looking statements regarding its development activities.
Changes in the Company's future revenues depend significantly upon the
success of these development activities, and in particular on the Company's
ability to obtain additional contracts to provide services to the consumer bases
it serves, whether through acquisitions, awards in response to requests for
proposals for new facilities or programs or for facilities being privatized by
governmental agencies, or other development activities. Future revenues also
depend on the Company's ability to maintain and renew its existing services
contracts and its existing leases. The Company actively seeks acquisitions of
other companies, facilities and other assets as a means of increasing the number
of consumers served, and changes in the market for such acquisition prospects,
including increasing competition for and increasing pricing of such acquisition
prospects, could also adversely affect the timing and/or viability of future
development activities.
Revenues of the Company's Division for Persons with Disabilities are highly
dependent on reimbursement under federal and state Medicaid programs. Generally,
each state has its own Medicaid reimbursement regulations and formula. The
Company's revenues and operating profitability are dependent upon the Company's
ability to maintain its existing reimbursement levels and to obtain periodic
increases in reimbursement rates. Changes in the manner in which Medicaid
reimbursement rates are established in one or more of the states in which the
Company conducts its operations, such as those recently encountered by the
Company, could adversely affect revenues and profitability. Other changes in the
manner in which federal and state reimbursement programs are operated, and in
the manner in which billings/costs are reviewed and audited, could also affect
revenues and operating profitability.
The Company's cost structure and ultimate operating profitability are
significantly dependent on its labor costs and the availability and utilization
of its labor force and thus may be affected by a variety of factors, including
local competitive forces, changes in minimum wages or other direct personnel
costs, the Company's
13
<PAGE> 15
effectiveness in managing its direct service staff, and changes in consumer
services models, such as the trends toward supported living and managed care.
Additionally, the Company's continued expansion of its existing operations,
and its ability to expand into providing services to other populations utilizing
the Company's core competencies are dependent upon continuation of trends toward
downsizing, privatization and consolidation, the Company's ability to tailor its
services to meet the specific needs of these different populations, and its
success in operating in a changing reimbursement environment. The continuation
of such trends and the nature of its operating environment are subject to a
variety of political, economic, social and legal pressures, including desires of
governmental agencies to reduce costs and increase levels of services, federal,
state and local budgetary constraints and actions brought by advocacy groups and
the courts to change existing service delivery systems. Material changes
resulting from these trends and pressures could adversely affect the demand for
and reimbursement of the Company's services and its operating flexibility, and
ultimately its revenues and profitability.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the shares of Common Stock
offered by the Company hereby are estimated to be approximately $26.2 million,
assuming an offering price of $18.75 per share and after deducting the estimated
underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses ($34.2
million if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full). The
Company intends to use the entire net proceeds to repay amounts outstanding
under its revolving credit facility. The indebtedness was incurred under the
Company's $65 million revolving credit facility, including up to $10 million in
letters of credit (the "Revolving Credit Facility"). The Revolving Credit
Facility bears interest at the Company's option at either (i) LIBOR plus a range
of 0.75% to 1.75% depending upon certain financial ratios or (ii) the lead
lender's prime rate, and expires on December 31, 2001. The weighted average
interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility on February 28, 1997 was 6.7%. As
of February 28, 1997, $40.0 million of direct borrowings were outstanding under
the Revolving Credit Facility and an additional $4.6 million in letters of
credit were outstanding. This indebtedness was incurred principally to fund the
Company's growth through acquisitions and internal development activities. Upon
application of the net proceeds of the offering to repay a portion of the
Revolving Credit Facility, the balance of the Revolving Credit Facility will
continue to be available pursuant to the terms thereof including for future
acquisitions. See Note 5 to Notes to Supplemental Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Although the Company currently has no agreement or understanding with
respect to any material acquisition, the Company continually evaluates
opportunities to expand its business through acquisition of other operations
that provide services to various special needs populations and from time to time
enters into discussions and letters of intent which may lead to potential
acquisitions. No assurance can be given that future acquisitions will be
consummated.
The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Common
Stock by the Selling Shareholders. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders."

estimates that there were approximately 3,800 beneficial holders.
Since its initial public offering in December 1992, the Company has not
declared or paid a cash dividend on its Common Stock and is currently limited in
paying cash dividends under its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company currently
intends to retain earnings primarily for working capital and to finance
expansion and therefore does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Supplemental

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF SUPPLEMENTAL
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
Res-Care receives revenues primarily from the delivery of residential,
training, educational and support services to populations with special needs,
including persons with developmental and other disabilities ("disabilities
services") and at-risk and troubled youths ("youth services"). Revenues for the
Company's disabilities services operations are derived primarily from state
government agencies under the Medicaid reimbursement system and from management
contracts with private operators, generally not-for-profit providers, who
contract with state government agencies and are also reimbursed under the
Medicaid system. Reimbursement methods vary by state and are typically based on
a flat rate or cost-based reimbursement system on a per person, per diem basis.
Generally, rates are adjusted annually based primarily upon historical costs
experienced by the Company and by other service providers, and inflation. At
facilities and programs where it is the provider of record, the Company is
directly reimbursed under state Medicaid programs for services it provides and
such reimbursement is affected by occupancy levels. At most facilities and
programs that the Company operates pursuant to management contracts, the
management fee is negotiated based upon the reimbursement amount expected to be
earned by the provider of record, which is affected by occupancy levels. Under
certain management contracts, the Company is paid a fixed fee regardless of
occupancy levels. See Note 1 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated Financial
Statements for a further discussion of the Company's revenue recognition
policies with respect to Medicaid contracts.
The Company's youth services operations include seven vocational training
programs under the federal Job Corps program administered by the United States
Department of Labor ("DOL"). Under the Job Corps program, the Company is
reimbursed for direct costs related to Job Corps center operations and allowable
indirect costs for general and administrative expenses, plus a predetermined
management fee, normally a fixed percentage of facility and program expenses.
All of such amounts are reflected as revenue, and all such direct costs are
reflected as facility and program expenses. Final determination of amounts due
under Job Corps contracts is subject to audit and review by the DOL, and
renewals and extension of Job Corps contracts are based in part on performance
reviews. In July 1996, the Company began operating various programs for at-risk
and troubled youths through its Youthtrack subsidiary, 20% of which is owned by
Youthtrack's management, and the Company's wholly-owned Alternative Youth
Services subsidiary. Most of the youth services programs are funded directly by
federal, state and local government agencies. Under these contracts, the Company
is typically reimbursed based on fixed contract amounts, flat rates or
cost-based rates. The effect of Youthtrack management's ownership interest is
reflected in the Company's supplemental consolidated statement of income as a
minority interest.
Expenses incurred under federal, state and local government agency
contracts for disabilities services and youth services, as well as management
contracts with providers of record for such agencies, are subject to examination
by agencies administering the contracts and services. Any resulting adjustments
would be recorded as contractual adjustments to revenues in the period in which
the adjustment is made. See Note 1 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated
Financial Statements.
The Company's revenues and net income fluctuate from quarter to quarter, in
part because annual Medicaid rate adjustments have been announced inconsistently
and are usually retroactive to the beginning of the particular state's fiscal
reporting period. The Company expects that future adjustments in reimbursement
rates in most states will consist primarily of cost-of-living adjustments.
However, in some cases states have revised their rate-setting methodologies
which has resulted in rate decreases as well as rate increases. Current
initiatives at the federal or state level may materially change the Medicaid
system as it now exists. Retroactively calculated contractual adjustments are
accrued on an estimated basis in the periods the related services are rendered
and recorded as adjustments to revenues in future periods as final settlements
are determined. Because the cumulative effect of rate adjustments may differ
from previously estimated amounts, net income as a percentage of net revenues
for a period in which an adjustment occurs may not be indicative of expected
results in succeeding periods. Revenues in the future may be affected by changes
in rate-setting structures, methodologies or interpretations that may be
proposed or are under consideration in states where
19
<PAGE> 21
the Company operates. Also, some states have considered initiating managed care
plans for persons currently in Medicaid programs. At this time, the Company
cannot determine the impact of such changes, or the effect of various federal
initiatives that have been proposed.
The Company is currently engaged in litigation or administrative
proceedings with several state Medicaid programs regarding rate-setting and
reimbursement methodologies which, if adversely determined, could adversely
affect the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations,
especially in any period in which such adjustments exceed amounts previously
estimated. See "Business -- Legal Proceedings."
The loss of one or more contracts to operate the Company's programs or
facilities could have a material adverse effect on the Company's current or
future results of operations. In 1996, the Company's contract to operate the
Crystal Springs, Mississippi Job Corps center was not renewed. The Company
estimates that the loss of this contract represents approximately $5.7 million
in annualized revenues.
In January 1997, the Company acquired the partnership interests in Premier
in a transaction accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. Premier provides
disabilities services to clients with acquired brain injuries. The Company's
financial statements and all financial and operating data derived therefrom have
been restated for all periods presented in this Prospectus to include the
financial condition and results of operations of Premier.
In May 1995, the Company sold to a third party all of its interest in an
unconsolidated affiliate engaged in providing home health care services and
reported a gain on this transaction of $8.8 million after applicable income
taxes. The effect of the sale has been recorded in the Company's financial
statements as a discontinued operation.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth for the periods indicated certain items from
the Company's supplemental consolidated statements of income expressed as a
percentage of the Company's total net revenues and in the case of facility and
program expenses and facility and program contribution, as a percentage of
related net revenues, and the percentage change in the amounts of such items
from the prior year:

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995
Revenues
Total net revenues increased by 26.4%, or $46.8 million, to $224.3 million
in 1996 compared to 1995. Of this increase, 75.2% resulted from increased
disabilities services revenues. Disabilities services net revenues increased by
24.1%, or $35.2 million, to $181.3 million in 1996 compared to 1995. Revenues
increased primarily from the acquisition of 12 facilities and four supported
living operations in 1996, the opening of nine new facilities in 1996 and the
effect of a full year of operations of 21 new facilities and programs added in
1995. Revenues also increased due to certain cost-of-living and other rate
adjustments providing reimbursement for payroll and other expenses incurred in
prior periods. Average revenue per census day increased to $112.73 in 1996
compared to $111.68 in 1995. Average disabilities services facility and program
occupancy rates for 1996 increased 0.5% to 96.2% compared to 95.7% in 1995.
Youth services net revenues increased by 37.0%, or $11.6 million, to $43.0
million in 1996 compared to 1995, resulting primarily from the first full year
of operations of the Edison Job Corps Center and the Company's first year of
operations of Youthtrack. During 1996, the Company began providing services to
over 350 youths through an acquisition by and a new contract awarded to
Youthtrack. Revenues were also impacted by inflationary increases. In addition,
during 1996, the Company was awarded a contract by the U.S. Department of Labor
to continue operating the South Bronx Job Corps Center. In December 1996, the
Company was awarded a 10-month basic education contract to provide support
services at the Great Onyx Job Corps Center in Mammoth Cave, Kentucky.
Facility and Program Expenses
Facility and program expenses increased 24.3%, or $38.1 million, to $194.9
million in 1996 compared to 1995. Of this increase, $26.6 million, or 69.8%, was
due to payroll and payroll-related expenses. These expenses reflected additional
personnel, primarily for the facilities and programs added during the year, as
well as annual pay increases. Facility and program expenses decreased as a
percentage of total net revenues to 86.9% in 1996 from 88.3% in 1995 due to
improved operating efficiencies, higher occupancy levels and the effect of the
rate increases described above.
Disabilities services facility and program expenses increased 21.2%, or
$27.4 million, to $156.7 million in 1996 compared to 1995. Payroll and
payroll-related expenses represented 76.7% of this increase due primarily to the
additional facilities and programs that were operational during 1996 compared to
1995. As a percentage of disabilities services net revenues, disabilities
services facility and program expenses decreased to 86.4% in 1996 from 88.5% in
1995. This decrease was due to improved operating efficiencies, higher occupancy
levels and the effect of the rate increases described above.
Youth services facility and program expenses increased 38.8%, or $10.7
million, to $38.2 million in 1996 compared to 1995. The increase related
primarily to the first full year of the operation of the Edison Job Corps Center
and the initial costs of the Youthtrack operation. As a percentage of youth
services net revenues, youth services facility and program expenses increased to
88.9% in 1996 from 87.8% in 1995. The increase in facility and program expenses
as a percentage of net revenues was due primarily to the initial costs of the
Youthtrack operation incurred prior to the commencement of revenues.
Operating Expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses increased 36.6%, or $2.6
million, to $9.8 million, in 1996 compared to 1995. The increase primarily
reflected additional personnel to support the growth of the Company's
operations, as well as increased use of professional services. As a percentage
of total net revenues, such expenses increased to 4.4% in 1996 compared to 4.1%
in 1995.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased 67.7%, or $1.5 million, to
$3.7 million in 1996 compared to 1995. The increase reflects primarily the
purchase of real property and intangible assets in disabilities services during
1995 and 1996. Amortization expense also includes amortization of deferred
start-up costs relating to the development of new facilities and programs.
Deferred start-up costs include
21
<PAGE> 23
administrative and staff salaries, rent, professional fees, insurance and other
costs incurred during the period prior to operation of the facilities and
programs. Such costs are amortized using the straight-line method over periods
ranging from five to seven years, consistent with applicable state reimbursement
regulations. At December 31, 1996, unamortized start-up costs totaled $3.5
million. See Notes 1 and 4 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated Financial
Statements.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
Net interest expense increased $1.1 million, to $893,000, in 1996 compared
to net interest income of $221,000 in 1995. The difference resulted primarily
from increased borrowings for acquisitions and for working capital. In 1995,
funds held in escrow from a 1988 transaction for the sale of the assets of a
facility were returned, and the Company recognized a one-time credit of
$507,000, net of expenses. See Note 2 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated
Financial Statements.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased 17.4%, or $819,000, to $5.5 million in 1996 compared
to 1995, and reflect effective tax rates of 36.9% and 39.1% in 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The increase in income tax expense is attributable to the higher
level of operating income as discussed above.
Income From Continuing Operations and Net Income
Income from continuing operations increased 29.2%, or 2.1 million to $9.4
million in 1996 compared to 1995, resulting primarily from the revenue
contribution of acquired and new programs and facilities as well as improved
occupancy and per diem rates. Included in 1995 net income is $9.1 million, or
$0.91 per share, attributable to income from and gain on the sale of the
Company's discontinued home health care operations. This operation was sold
during 1995, resulting in an after tax gain of $8.8 million. Due to the effect
of the sale of the discontinued operation, net income was $9.4 million, or $0.91
per share, in 1996 versus $16.6 million or $1.64 per share in 1995.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1995 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1994
Revenues
Total net revenues increased 24.1%, or $34.5 million, to $177.4 million in
1995 compared to 1994. Of this increase, 92.0% resulted from increased
disabilities services revenues. Disabilities services net revenues increased by
27.7%, or $31.7 million, to $146.1 million in 1995 compared to 1994. Revenues
increased primarily from the acquisition of 21 facilities and programs in 1995
and ten facilities and programs in 1994. Disabilities services revenues also
increased due to reimbursement for general cost-of-living increases in staff and
other expenses in prior periods. Average disabilities services revenue per
census day decreased to $111.68 in 1995 compared to $112.80 in 1994 as a result
of lower reimbursement rates on certain acquired facilities. Average
disabilities services facility and program occupancy rates increased 1.1% to
95.7% in 1995 compared to 94.6% in 1994.
Youth services net revenues increased by 9.7%, or $2.8 million, to $31.4
million in 1995 compared to 1994, due principally to a new contract to operate
the Edison Job Corps Center in New Jersey and a one-year basic education
contract to provide support services at the Gateway Job Corps Center in
Brooklyn, New York. Revenues were also impacted by inflationary increases.
Facility and Program Expenses
Facility and program expenses increased 23.4%, or $29.8 million, to $156.7
million in 1995 compared to 1994. Of this increase, $21.9 million, or 73.5%, was
due to payroll and payroll-related expenses. These expenses reflected additional
personnel, primarily for the additional facilities and programs in disabilities
services, as well as annual pay increases. Facility and program expenses
decreased as a percentage of total net revenues to 88.3% in 1995 from 88.8% in
1994.
22
<PAGE> 24
Disabilities services facility and program expenses increased 27.4%, or
$27.8 million, to $129.2 million in 1995 compared to 1994. Payroll and
payroll-related expenses represented 77.7% of the increase due primarily to the
additional disabilities services facilities and programs that were operational
during 1995 compared to 1994. As a percentage of disabilities services net
revenues, disabilities services facility and program expenses decreased to 88.5%
in 1995 from 88.7% for 1994.
Youth services facility and program expenses increased 7.8%, or $2.0
million, to $27.5 million in 1995 compared to 1994. As a percentage of youth
services net revenues, youth services facility and program expenses decreased to
87.8% in 1995 from 89.3% in 1994. This decrease was due primarily to increased
recruitment and placement revenues in the Puerto Rico and South Bronx Job Corps
centers and to the new Job Corps contracts discussed above.
Operating Expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses increased 17.6%, or $1.1
million, to $7.2 million in 1995 compared to 1994. The increase reflected
additional personnel to support the growth of the Company as well as normal pay
increases, increased travel and increased use of professional services. As a
percentage of total net revenues, such expenses decreased to 4.1% in 1995
compared to 4.3% in 1994.
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 52.2%, or $753,000, to
$2.2 million in 1995 compared to 1994. The increase reflects primarily the
effect of the real property and intangible assets added in disabilities services
in 1995.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
Net interest income decreased 62.4%, or $367,000, to $221,000 in 1995
compared to 1994. The decrease resulted primarily from increased borrowings for
acquisitions.
In 1995, funds held in escrow from a 1988 transaction for the sale of the
assets of a facility were returned and the Company recognized a one-time credit
of $507,000, net of expenses. See Note 2 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated
Financial Statements.
Income Taxes
Income taxes increased 21.7%, or $837,000, to $4.7 million in 1995 compared
to 1994, and reflect effective tax rates of 39.1% and 43.0% in 1995 and 1994,
respectively. The increase in income tax expense is attributable to the higher
level of operating income as discussed above.
Income From Continuing Operations and Net Income
For the reasons described above, income from continuing operations
increased 42.7%, or $2.2 million to $7.3 million in 1995 compared to 1994. Due
to the effect of the sale of the discontinued home health care operations,
described above, net income was $16.6 million or $1.64 per share in 1995
compared to $6.2 million or $0.61 per share in 1994.
UNAUDITED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The Company's quarterly results may fluctuate significantly as a result of
a variety of factors, including the timing of acquisitions or the opening of new
programs, the timing of rate adjustments and the cumulative effect of rate
adjustments differing from previously estimated amounts. Rate adjustments have
tended to be more prevalent in the second and third quarters of the calendar
year. Income from continuing operations was favorably affected during the fourth
quarter of 1995 due to the release of funds held in escrow from a 1988
transaction for the sale of assets of a facility. Because of the potential
quarterly fluctuations in the Company's revenue and operating results, results
for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future quarterly or annual
results.

</TABLE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's needs for capital are attributable primarily to the Company's
plans to expand through acquisitions and the development of new facilities and
programs, and to have sufficient working capital for general corporate purposes.
Since most of the Company's facilities and programs are operating at or near
capacity, and budgetary pressures and other forces are expected to limit
increases in reimbursement rates received by the Company, the Company's ability
to continue to grow at its current rate is directly dependent upon such
acquisitions and development.
For 1996, net cash provided by operating activities was $8.1 million
compared to $4.1 million for 1995 and $4.2 million for 1994. The increase in
1996 was due primarily to an increase in income from continuing operations,
offset by an increase in accounts receivable.
For 1996, net cash used in investing activities was $20.7 million, related
primarily to acquisitions and the purchase of property and equipment. For 1995,
net cash used in investing activities was $17.3 million, related primarily to
acquisitions and the purchase of property and equipment, offset by dividends
from the unconsolidated affiliate sold and proceeds from the sale of the
unconsolidated affiliate net of income taxes. For 1994, net cash used in
investing activities was $4.2 million relating primarily to the purchase of
property and equipment.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $13.0 million for 1996 and
$10.3 million for 1995, both consisting primarily of borrowings against the
available line of credit. For 1994, net cash provided by financing activities
was $432,000, consisting primarily of borrowing against the line of credit
offset by repayment of notes payable.
On December 23, 1996, the Company entered into a new Revolving Credit
Facility, expiring December 31, 2001 which allows for maximum borrowings of $65
million, including up to $10 million in letters of credit. The Revolving Credit
Facility bears interest at the Company's option at either (i) LIBOR plus a range
of 0.75% to 1.75% depending upon certain financial ratios or (ii) the lead
lender's prime rate. The weighted average interest rate on the Revolving Credit
Facility on February 28, 1997 was 6.7%. At December 31, 1996, the Company had
approximately $31.0 million in outstanding indebtedness, consisting of a $26.2
million outstanding balance under its Revolving Credit Facility and $4.8 million
of notes payable. As of February 28, 1997, $40.0 million of direct borrowings
were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and an additional $4.6
million in letters of credit were outstanding. The entire net proceeds of this
offering will be used to repay amounts outstanding under the line of credit,
which thereafter will be available for reborrowing. See "Use of Proceeds" and
Note 5 of Notes to Supplemental Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net days revenue in accounts receivable for disabilities services was 50
days at December 31, 1996, compared to 46 days at December 31, 1995, and 47 days
at December 31, 1994. Accounts receivable for disabilities services at December
31, 1996, increased to $31.2 million, compared to $22.8 million at December 31,
1995, and $15.0 million at December 31, 1994. In youth services, payment is
generally received within 15 to 45 days of billings.
The Company generally prefers to provide its services under management
contracts or in facilities that are leased, which minimizes the amount of
capital expenditures required. However, in states that utilize flat-
24
<PAGE> 26
rate reimbursement structures, purchases may be made to maximize returns. Also,
acquisitions may involve significant capital expenditures. The Company has no
material commitments for capital expenditures for its current facilities,
although the Company maintains an ongoing capital improvements program.
The Company believes that borrowing under its Revolving Credit Facility
together with its cash and cash equivalents, the use of operating leases
whenever possible, the net cash generated from operations, and the net proceeds
of this offering will be able to satisfy its existing and expected commitments
for at least the next twelve months.

BUSINESS
Res-Care is a leading provider of residential, training, educational and
support services to populations with special needs, including persons with
developmental and other disabilities and at-risk and troubled youths. The
services provided by the Company have historically been provided by state and
local government agencies and not-for-profit organizations. The Company's
programs include an array of services provided in both residential and
non-residential settings for adults and youths with MR/DD and disabilities
caused by ABI, and for youths who have severe behavioral disorders, who are from
disadvantaged backgrounds or who have entered the juvenile justice system.
Since September 30, 1992, the Company has experienced significant growth in
the numbers of persons served, revenues and operating income. At February 28,
1997, Res-Care was providing services to approximately 7,600 persons with
special needs compared to approximately 3,300 persons at September 30, 1992,
representing a compound annual growth rate of approximately 21%. Res-Care
currently provides services to approximately 5,000 persons with disabilities in
larger facilities, group homes, personal residences or other community-based
programs in 17 states and to approximately 2,600 at-risk and troubled youths in
federally-funded vocational training programs and juvenile treatment programs
operated for state and local agencies in seven states and Puerto Rico. The
Company's revenues and operating income have increased from $90.8 million and
$4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1992 to $224.3 million and $15.9
million for the year ended December 31, 1996, representing compound annual
growth rates of approximately 25% and 34%, respectively.
Res-Care's growth strategy is to (i) pursue acquisitions, (ii) add programs
and expand its existing programs in markets in which it currently operates and
(iii) expand into additional geographic areas in the United States. The markets
for the Company's services are highly fragmented, and the Company believes that
there are significant opportunities to enhance its market positions through an
active acquisition program in the disabilities and at-risk and troubled youth
sectors that will enable the Company to expand its operations into new
geographic areas, add program offerings and establish new relationships with
governmental entities. The Company intends to build upon its established
relationships with governmental entities to expand its current programs and
obtain contracts for additional programs in existing markets, and to develop new
programs in response to societal trends and the needs of governmental agencies.
The Company also intends to expand its programs to additional geographic areas
which management identifies as having favorable reimbursement and operating
environments. Since September 1, 1996, the Company has obtained contracts for or
acquired operations of 36 facilities and programs serving approximately 800
persons with developmental and other disabilities and 20 facilities and programs
serving approximately 500 at-risk and troubled youths.
MARKETS FOR THE COMPANY'S SERVICES
There is a growing trend throughout the United States toward privatization
of social services functions for special needs populations historically provided
by governmental agencies as governments of all types face continuing pressure to
control costs and improve the quality of services. Although the number and scope
of privatized social services have increased dramatically in recent years, the
Company estimates that only a relatively small percentage of these services is
currently privately managed. Based on the combination of the current demographic
and societal factors affecting special needs populations, the Company believes
that the demand for privatized social services will continue to escalate.
Disabilities Services
Approximately 1.6% of the general population, or over 4.2 million
individuals, are estimated as being affected to some extent with MR/DD, often
with related medical or physical disabilities, to the extent that they require
some level of life-long supervision and support, including supervised housing
arrangements. While many of these persons are cared for by parents or other
family members, an estimated 390,000 live in supervised out-of-home residential
settings, of which approximately 54,000 live in supported living settings. It is
estimated that there are over 4,000 providers serving the MR/DD population,
including state and local governmental providers, not-for-profit organizations
and other proprietary providers, which operate over
26
<PAGE> 28
10,000 separate MR/DD facilities and programs. Funding for disabilities services
programs has increased consistently over the past two decades to its current
level of $22.9 billion annually, although only approximately 9% of persons with
MR/DD participate in these programs due to extensive waiting lists for community
living placements and day services in most states and to funding constraints.
The Company believes that demand for community-based programs will also
continue to increase as a result of a growing trend to deinstitutionalize
disabilities populations. Since 1970, 39 states have closed approximately 100
large state MR/DD facilities, representing one-third of such facilities that
existed in 1970. During this period, states have relocated individuals from
institutional facilities to less restrictive, alternative living arrangements,
such as community homes and supported living programs. Res-Care believes that
service patterns to disabilities populations will continue to shift from a
highly-structured model to an individualized, service-as-needed model. This
shift is attributable to a number of factors, including state and local
governmental budgetary constraints, changes in public and professional attitudes
toward disabilities populations, the effect of litigation and other efforts of
public advocacy groups, and an aging population that has historically cared for
family members with disabilities in their own homes.
Youth Services
The Company's Division for Youth Services provides services to at-risk and
troubled youths primarily through secure and staff-secure residential treatment
programs and federally-funded Job Corps centers. At one end of the spectrum are
at-risk youths. These are youths who may not be functioning well in school or at
home and might exhibit such behaviors as aggressive noncompliance with parents
and authority figures, chronic truancy, fighting, running away and substance
abuse. At the other end of the spectrum are troubled youths. These are youths
who have committed serious and/or violent crimes, such as sex offenses,
robberies, assaults and drug trafficking. A significant number of at-risk and
troubled youths are believed to live in poverty and have been the object of
neglect or physical and/or emotional abuse.
The Company believes the market for residential, educational and vocational
programs for at-risk and troubled youths is a large and growing market.
Additionally, as juvenile crime and the demand for special educational and
residential services for these youths continue to grow and receive increasing
levels of attention from lawmakers and the general public, many industry
observers have predicted that government funding for programs addressing the
needs of at-risk and troubled youths, provided primarily through juvenile
justice, special education and child welfare agencies at the federal, state and
local levels, will continue to increase. A recent census projection stated that
the number of youths in the United States between the ages of 14 and 17 years,
the highest-risk juvenile group, is expected to increase by 20% from
approximately 14 million in 1994 to approximately 17 million in 2005. While the
youth population is expected to increase, the juvenile crime rate continues to
increase at an even greater rate. Violent crime arrests per 100,000 juveniles
ages 10-17 have increased approximately 72% from 1983 to 1995. In 1994, there
were 2.7 million arrests of juveniles under 18 years of age, accounting for 19%
of all arrests, and 35% of all property crime arrests. Contributing to this
growth is the fact that reported incidence of child abuse and negligence has
grown significantly in the last decade. Reports of child abuse and neglect of
children have grown 45% from 2.0 million in 1985 to 2.9 million in 1993.
The market for the provision of services to at-risk and troubled youths is
highly fragmented. A 1994 National Study for Residential Care for Children
survey reported that there were over 6,700 publicly and privately operated
residential care facilities for children, with over 117,000 youths in the 5,957
facilities that responded to the survey. In addition, at December 31, 1996,
there were 110 Job Corps centers in operation in the United States, operating at
or near their capacity of approximately 40,000 students. Of such centers,
approximately 70% were managed by private contractors and 30% by the federal
government. Funding for the Job Corps program has been maintained or increased
in each of the last ten years.

BUSINESS STRATEGY
Res-Care strives to provide quality and caring residential, training,
educational and support services through the operation of efficient and flexible
programs to growing special needs populations, including persons with
developmental and other disabilities and at-risk and troubled youths. To achieve
this goal, the Company's business strategy is based upon the following key
elements:
Continue to Expand Leadership Position in Disabilities Services. Res-Care
is the leading provider of residential, training and support services to persons
with developmental disabilities, with more than 18 years operating experience in
this field. Over this period, Res-Care has developed a reputation for being an
operator of choice for governmental agencies and not-for-profit providers due to
its established operating procedures and management infrastructure that result
in efficient delivery of quality services at low cost. At the same time,
Res-Care has developed unique skills in dealing with special needs individuals
in difficult situations. The Company's disabilities and vocational training
services operations serve as a training ground for the management and direct
service personnel needed to develop, implement, transition and operate a rapidly
increasing number of facilities and programs for an expanding consumer base. As
Res-Care seeks to expand its disabilities services operations, it remains
committed to maintaining and enhancing its "best in class" management and
operating practices.
Leverage Experience to Become a Leading Provider of Services to At-Risk and
Troubled Youths. Res-Care's 20-year history of providing training and support
services to special needs populations, including disadvantaged youths, has
enabled it to develop a depth of management and direct services talent and
established operating procedures, service delivery protocols and financial
controls. As public concern and funding focus greater attention on addressing
the growing number of at-risk and troubled youths within the U.S. population,
the Company is well positioned to utilize its experience and core competencies
to implement a broad range of programs for at-risk and troubled youths. These
capabilities are enhanced by the recent addition of personnel in its Division
for Youth Services with extensive juvenile correctional services experience.
Focus on Quality Management of Existing Programs. The Company strives to
enhance the delivery of its programs, and the competency of its staff to attain
the positive outcomes desired for the special needs populations they serve. The
Company has developed and implemented models of ongoing program evaluation and
quality management which the Company believes provide critical feedback to
measure the performance of its various programs. The Company believes its
reputation for consistency and quality in its program offerings is an important
competitive advantage which enables it to renew existing contracts and to expand
services, as well as capitalize on privatization opportunities with additional
governmental agencies.
Provide Cost-Effective Solutions. The Company believes that it has a
demonstrated ability to design, implement and operate residential, training,
educational and support facilities and programs at a lower cost than
governmental agencies and not-for-profit entities that historically have
performed such services. The Company has developed proven management systems and
procedures that assure efficient application of financial and human resources in
order to continue to implement and maintain high quality, cost-effective
alternatives to programs operated directly by governmental entities and private
agencies. The Company also has developed the ability to transition effectively
the operations of an acquired program to Res-Care's proven operating philosophy
and system, and has been engaged on an emergency basis by government agencies
and courts to manage programs where the prior operator has experienced financial
or program-related difficulties.
GROWTH STRATEGY
The Company's growth strategy involves an active acquisition program, the
development of new programs in existing markets and the expansion into new
geographic and service markets.
Pursue Acquisitions. The markets for disabilities services and at-risk and
troubled youth services are highly fragmented. In 1996, there were over 4,000
providers serving the MR/DD population and over 6,000 providers serving the
at-risk and troubled youth population. The Company believes these fragmented
markets provide significant opportunities for the Company to enhance its
position through acquisitions of for-profit and
28
<PAGE> 30
not-for-profit operations and companies in these service fields. The Company
intends to pursue acquisitions that will help it further penetrate existing
geographic and service markets, expand its operations into new geographic areas,
add complementary program types to the Company's array of service offerings and
establish new relationships with state and local governmental entities and
not-for-profit providers. Although the Company currently has no agreement or
understanding with respect to any material acquisition, the Company continually
evaluates opportunities to expand its business through acquisitions of other
companies that provide services to various special needs populations and from
time to time enters into discussions and letters of intent which may lead to
acquisitions. No assurance can be given that future acquisitions will be
consummated.
Add New Programs and Expand Operations in Existing Markets. The Company
intends to build upon established relationships with governmental contracting
agencies and their administrative staffs to expand the Company's disabilities
and youth services programs and to obtain contracts for additional programs in
states where the Company currently operates. The Company has active and on-going
development efforts focused on winning new state contracts and working with
state agencies to develop new programs to be awarded on a competitive basis. In
addition to its current array of programs, the Company also is actively seeking
to develop new services in response to societal trends affecting the special
needs populations and the requirements of governmental agencies and
not-for-profit providers.
Expand Operations into New Geographic Markets. The Company is seeking to
expand the geographic scope of its disabilities and youth services offerings
into additional states. This expansion may occur through acquisitions or
development of new facilities and programs. In pursuing this expansion strategy,
the Company seeks to identify those states or programs which have favorable
reimbursement and operational environments and are receptive to privatized
governmental services. The Company currently operates programs in 20 states,
including expansions into California, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Missouri, Ohio
and Oklahoma since the beginning of 1995.
SERVICES
Disabilities Services
Since 1978, Res-Care has provided services to persons with developmental
disabilities primarily through the operation and management of group homes
(generally serving six to eight individuals) and larger facilities (generally
serving 40 or more individuals) that provide alternatives to placement in state
institutions or traditional nursing homes or other long-term care facilities not
capable of providing specialized active treatment required by these individuals.
Some of Res-Care's clients have acquired brain injury, and service patterns to
these individuals are similar to those for individuals with mental retardation
or other developmental disabilities. Since 1992, the Company has also operated
supported living programs, in which persons with disabilities reside in their
own residences or apartments with outside support provided as needed. Some
individuals require 24-hour staffing, while others need only drop-in services,
day programs, supported employment or transportation services. Community-based
settings enable persons with developmental or other disabilities to live and
develop in an environment that encourages each person to achieve maximum
independence and self-respect.
The Company's programs are based predominately on individual habilitation
plans designed to encourage greater independence and development of daily living
skills through individualized support and training. Management believes that the
breadth and quality of the Company's services and support and training programs
makes the Company attractive to state and local governmental agencies and
not-for-profit providers who may wish to contract with it. As of February 28,
1997, the Company was providing services to approximately 5,000 individuals in
facilities and programs in 17 states. The Company's programs are designed to
offer specialized support to these individuals not generally available in larger
state institutions and traditional long-term care facilities. In each of the
Company's programs, services are administered by Res-Care employees and
contractors, such as qualified mental retardation professionals ("QMRPs"),
physicians, psychologists, therapists, social workers and other direct service
staff. These services include social, functional and vocational skills training,
and emotional and psychological counseling and therapy as needed for each
individual.
29
<PAGE> 31
Social Skills Training. The Company's social skills training focuses
on problem solving, anger management and adaptive skills to allow
individuals with disabilities to interact with others in the residential
setting and in the community. Emphasis is placed on contact with the
community at large as appropriate for each individual. The desired outcome
is to enable each to participate in home, family and community life as
fully as possible.
Many individuals with developmental and other disabilities require
behavioral intervention services. The Company provides these services
through psychiatrists, psychologists and behavioral specialists, some of
whom serve as consultants on a contract basis. All operations utilize a
non-aversive approach to behavior management which has been pioneered by
the Company and which is designed to avoid consequences involving
punishment or extreme restrictions on individual rights. Behavior
management techniques are employed by the interdisciplinary team and direct
service staff rather than psychotropic medications to modify behavior, the
goal being to minimize the use of medications whenever possible. When
necessary, medications are handled in strict compliance with federal
regulations.
Functional Skills Training. The Company's functional skills training
program encourages mastery of personal skills and the achievement of
greater independence. As needed, individual habilitation plans may focus on
basic skills training in such areas as personal hygiene and dressing, as
well as more complex activities such as shopping and use of public
transportation. Individuals are encouraged to participate in daily
activities such as housekeeping and meal preparation as appropriate.
Vocational Skills Training and Day Programs. The Company provides
extensive vocational training or specialized day programs for all
individuals served. Some individuals are able to be placed in
community-based jobs, either independently or with job coaches, or may
participate as part of a work team contracted for a specific service such
as cleaning, sorting or maintenance. Clients not working in the community
may be served through vocational workshops or day programs appropriate for
their needs. The Company operates such programs and also contracts for this
service with outside providers. The Company's philosophy is to enable all
persons served to perform productive work in the community or otherwise
develop vocational skills based on their individual abilities. Clients
served by specialized day programs may be older or have physical or health
restrictions which prevent them from being employed or participating in
vocational programs. Specialized day programs may include further training
in daily living skills, community integration or specialized recreation
activities.
Counseling and Therapy Programs. The Company's counseling and therapy
programs address the physical, emotional and behavioral challenges of
individuals with MR/DD or ABI. Goals of the programs include the
development of enhanced physical agility and ambulation, acquisition of
adaptive skills for both personal care and work, as well as the development
of coping skills and the use of alternative, responsible, and socially
acceptable interpersonal behaviors. Individualized counseling programs may
include group and individual therapies. Occupational and physical therapies
and therapeutic recreation are provided based on the assessed needs of the
individual.
At each of its operations, the Company provides comprehensive
individualized support and training programs that encourage greater independence
and the development of personal and vocational skills commensurate with the
particular individual's capabilities. As the individual progresses, new programs
are created to encourage greater independence and self-respect, and the
development of additional personal or vocational skills.
Youth Services
Since 1976, the Company has been operating programs for disadvantaged
youths through the federal Job Corps program administered by the DOL, which
provides for the educational and vocational skills training, health care,
employment counseling and other support necessary to enable disadvantaged youths
to become responsible working adults. In December 1995, the Company began a
strategic initiative to expand its Division for Youth Services and develop
services that is designed to address the specific needs of at-risk and troubled
youths to enable each youth to be transitioned back into the community. The
youths targeted to be served through the strategic initiative range from
pre-adjudicated and adjudicated youths who have entered
30
<PAGE> 32
the juvenile justice system to youths who exhibit a variety of behavioral and
emotional disorders and in some instances have been diagnosed with mental
retardation or another developmental disability. Programs offered for troubled
youths include secure and staff-secure detention programs, boot camps, long-term
treatment programs, secure transportation, tracker/mentor programs, AWOL
apprehension, proctor parent programs, day treatment programs and monitoring,
transition and after-care programs. At-risk youth programs include therapeutic
residential programs, non-residential educational programs and the operation of
an alternative school. Over time, the Company expects to continue to expand the
services provided by the Company to these youths.
The Company's programs include a variety of educational and vocational
training programs and comprehensive programs for behavior change, including
individual, group and family counseling and training in social and independent
living skills. These programs emphasize self-esteem, academic enhancement,
empathy development, critical thinking and problem solving, anger management and
coping strategies, substance abuse treatment and relapse prevention. Programs
are designed to increase self-control and effective problem-solving; to teach
youths how to understand and consider other people's values, behaviors and
feelings; to show youths how to recognize how their behavior affects other
people and why others respond to them as they do; and to enable them to develop
alternative, responsible, interpersonal behaviors. Although certain youths in
the Company's programs require both drug therapy and treatment for use or abuse
of drugs, the Company's goal is to minimize or eliminate the use of medication
whenever possible. When appropriate, medication is prescribed by independent
physicians and may be administered by Company personnel. Management believes
that the breadth of the Company's services and its history of working with
youths make the Company attractive to local, state and federal governmental
agencies.
As an integral part of its youth services program, Res-Care operates seven
Job Corps centers with a contracted capacity of 2,095 persons. The Job Corps
program is designed to address the severe unemployment problem faced by
disadvantaged youths throughout the country. The typical Job Corps student is a
16- to 24-year old high school dropout who reads at the seventh grade level,
comes from a disadvantaged background, has not held a regular job, and was
living in an environment characterized by a troubled home life or other
disruptive conditions. Each center offers training in several vocational areas
depending upon the particular needs and job market opportunities in the region.
Students are required to participate in basic education classes to improve their
academic skills and to complement their vocational training. High school
equivalency classes are available to obtain GED certificates. Upon graduation or
other departure from the program, each student is referred to the nearest Job
Corps placement agency for assistance in finding a job or enrolling in a school
or training program. Approximately 70% of the students completing the program
have obtained jobs or continued their education elsewhere.
OPERATIONS
Disabilities Services
DPD operations are under the direct supervision of the Company's Executive
Vice President, Operations, Division for Persons with Disabilities, who is
responsible for six geographic regions, each headed by a Vice President, and two
Vice Presidents responsible for ABI operations nationally. Each Vice President
supervises the senior administrators and/or administrators responsible for the
various MR/DD or ABI facilities and programs under his or her control. In
general, each cluster of group homes, supported living program and larger
facility is overseen by an administrator. In addition, a program manager
supervises a comprehensive team of professionals and community-based consultants
who participate in the design and implementation of individualized programs for
each individual served. QMRPs work with direct service staff and professionals
involved in the programs to ensure that quality standards are met and that
progress towards each individual's goals and objectives is monitored and
outcomes are achieved. Individual habilitation plans are reviewed and modified
by the team as needed. The operations utilize community advisory boards and
consumer satisfaction surveys to solicit input from professionals, family
members and advocates, as well as from the neighboring community, on how to
continue to improve service delivery and increase involvement with the
neighborhood or community.
31
<PAGE> 33
The Company's direct service staff have the most frequent contact with, and
generally are recruited from, the community in which the facility or program is
located. These staff members are screened to meet certain qualification
requirements and receive orientation, training, and continuing education.
The provision of disabilities services is subject to complex and
substantial state and federal regulation and the Company strives to ensure that
its internal controls and reporting systems comply with Medicaid reimbursement
and other program requirements, policies and guidelines. The Company designs and
implements programs, often in coordination with appropriate state agencies, in
order to assist the state in meeting its objectives and to facilitate the
efficient delivery of quality services. Management and personnel resources are
devoted to keeping abreast of new laws, regulations and policy directives
affecting the quality of or reimbursement for such services. In addition, the
Company believes it has developed expertise in accurately predicting eligibility
for Medicaid and other benefits and in processing reimbursement claims. The
Company's billing system is centralized and able to take advantage of expedited
payment procedures, such as electronic billing, that may be available.
The Company has developed a model of ongoing program evaluation and quality
management which the Company believes provides critical feedback to measure the
quality of its various operations. Each operation conducts its own quality
assurance program, the Periodic Service Review ("PSR"), which is reviewed by the
responsible Vice President, Operations. Results from the PSRs are reviewed on a
quarterly basis with the Executive Vice President, Operations, Division for
Persons with Disabilities. Management and operational goals and objectives are
established for each facility and program, as part of an annual budget and
strategic planning process. A weekly statistical reporting system and quarterly
statement of progress provides management with relevant and timely information
on the operations of each facility. Survey results from government agencies for
each operation are recorded in a database and quarterly summary reports are
reviewed by senior management. The Company believes the PSR system is a vital
management tool to evaluate the quality of its programs, and has been useful as
a marketing tool to promote the Company's programs, since it provides more
meaningful and significant data than is usually provided by routine monitoring
by government agencies.
Youth Services
At-Risk and Troubled Youths. The Company's programs are designed to
provide consistent, high quality and cost-effective education and treatment to
address the needs of the various segments of the at-risk and troubled youths
population. The Company generally is responsible for the overall operation of
its facilities and programs, including management, general administration, staff
recruitment and security and supervision of the youth in their programs.
Youthtrack operations are under the direct supervision of its President, and AYS
operations are under the direct supervision of the Company's Vice President,
Alternative Youth Services.
The Company has assembled an experienced team of managers, counselors and
staff that blends program expertise with business and financial experience. The
Company believes that its recruitment, selection and training programs generate
sufficient personnel capable of implementing the Company's systems and
procedures as it expands this segment of its business. The Company's staff
includes teachers, counselors, mental health professionals, juvenile justice
administrators and licensed clinicians.
The Company's internal training policies require its teachers, counselors,
security and other direct service staff to complete extensive training. Core
training includes courses in the major Company program components such as
behavior change education, positive peer culture, nonviolent crisis
intervention, discipline and limit-setting, anger management and social skills
training. Continuing education also is required for all staff. The Company
demonstrates its commitment to its employees' professional development by
offering classes and training programs, as well as tuition reimbursement
benefits.
The Company has also implemented its PSR system at the majority of its
youth services programs and expects to complete implementation at the Company's
remaining programs during fiscal 1997.
32
<PAGE> 34
The Company recognizes that, in the operation of programs for at-risk and
troubled youths, a primary mission is to protect the safety of the community
within a facility, as well as the neighboring community. Thus, the Company's
programs emphasize security, risk assessment and close supervision by
responsible and well-trained staff.
Job Corps Centers. The Company's Job Corps centers are operated under
contract with the DOL which provides the physical plant and equipment. The
Company is directly responsible for the management, staffing and administration
of Job Corps centers. Each center is managed by a center director, who reports
to the Vice President, Job Corps, who in turn reports to the Company's Chief
Executive Officer.
A typical Res-Care Job Corps operation consists of a three tier management
staff structure. The center director has the overall responsibility for
day-to-day management at each facility and is assisted by several senior staff
managers who typically are responsible for academics, vocational training,
social skills, safety and security, health services and behavior management.
Managers are assisted by front line supervisors who have specific
responsibilities for such areas as counseling, food services, maintenance,
finance, residential life, recreation, property, purchasing, human resources and
transportation.
A performance standards report for each center, issued by the DOL monthly,
measures and assigns ratings to three primary categories of performance: (i)
placement of graduates, (ii) education results, as measured by GED achievement
and reading and math gains and (iii) the number of students completing a
prescribed vocational curriculum to make a student job-ready. These are then
combined into an overall performance rating. The ratings are derived from a
comparison of the operator's performance results against predetermined standards
in each category. All 110 centers are ranked against each other in these
categories. Performance standards reports are reviewed by center directors and
the Vice President, Job Corps, and acted upon as appropriate to address areas
where improvement is needed. At February 28, 1997, the ratings of all of the
centers operated by the Company exceeded the national standard established by
the DOL for Job Corps centers and only one of the centers operated by the
Company was ranked in the bottom quartile in the ranking of all Job Corps
centers.

CONTRACTS
State Contracts. Contracts for participation as a provider of services in
the Medicaid programs are regulated by federal and state agencies. Although the
contracts have a stated term of one year and generally may be terminated without
cause on 60 days notice, the contracts are typically renewed annually if the
Company has complied with licensing, certification, program standards and other
regulatory requirements. Serious deficiencies can result in delicensure or
decertification actions by these agencies. As provider of record, the Company
contractually obligates itself to adhere to the applicable federal and state
regulations regarding the provision of services, the maintenance of records and
submission of claims for reimbursement under the Medicaid Assistance Program,
Title XIX of the Social Security Act and pertinent state medical assistance
programs. Pursuant to provider agreements, the Company agrees to accept the
payment received from the government entity as payment in full for the services
administered to the individuals and to provide the government entity with
information regarding the owners and managers of the Company, as well as comply
with requests and audits of information pertaining to the services rendered.
Provider agreements can be terminated at any time for non-compliance with the
federal, state or local regulations. Reimbursement methods vary by state and are
typically based on a flat-rate or cost-based reimbursement system on a per
person, per diem basis. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Supplemental Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
Contracts for the Company's youth services programs, excluding Job Corps,
are regulated by state and local governmental entities. Contracts generally have
one year terms, subject to annual renewal, or cover individuals for specific
terms. The contract rate is also accepted as payment in full for services
rendered.
Management Contracts. Management contracts with states, local agencies or
other providers of record typically call for the Company to manage the
day-to-day operations of facilities or programs. Many of these contracts are
short-term (generally a year in duration) and are subject to renewal or
renegotiation provided that program standards and regulatory requirements are
met. Depending upon the state's reimbursement policies and practices, management
contracts provide fees to the Company computed on the basis of a fixed fee per
individual (which may include some form of incentive payment), a percentage of
operating expenses (so-called cost-plus contracts), a percentage of revenue or
an overall fixed fee paid regardless of occupancy. The provider of record is
generally paid a net operating income (facility gross revenues minus lease
payment, facility operating expenses and the Company's management fee), some
specified minimum amount or a fixed amount. Historically, the Company's Medicaid
provider contracts and management contracts have been renewed or satisfactorily
renegotiated. The Company believes its experience in this regard is consistent
with the overall experience of other operators in the disabilities services
business.

Job Corps Contracts. Contracts for Job Corps centers are awarded pursuant
to a rigorous bid process. After successfully bidding, the Company operates the
Job Corps centers under comprehensive contracts negotiated with the DOL. Under
Job Corps contracts, the Company is reimbursed for all facility and program
costs related to Job Corps center operations and allowable indirect costs for
general and administrative expenses, plus a predetermined management fee,
normally a fixed percentage of facility and program expense.
The contracts cover a five-year period, consisting of an initial two-year
term with three one-year renewal terms exercisable at the option of the DOL. The
contracts specify that the decision to exercise an option is based on an
assessment of (i) the performance of the center as compared to its budget, (ii)
compliance with federal, state and local regulations, (iii) qualitative
assessments of center life, education, outreach efforts and placement record and
(iv) the overall rating received by the center. Shortly prior to the expiration
of the five-year contract period (or earlier if the DOL elects not to exercise a
renewal term), the contract is rebid, regardless of the operator's performance.
The current operator may participate in the rebid process. In situations where
the DOL elects not to exercise a renewal term, however, it is unlikely that the
current operator will be successful in the rebidding process. It is the
Company's experience that there is usually an inverse correlation between the
performance ratings of the current operator and the number of competitors who
will participate in the rebidding process, with relatively fewer competitors
expected where such performance ratings are high.
The Company is currently operating seven Job Corps Centers in Gulfport,
Mississippi; South Bronx, New York; Miami, Florida; Edison, New Jersey; and
Puerto Rico(3). The five-year period covered by the Company's Job Corps
contracts generally expire in 2000, although the Gulfport and the South Bronx
contracts expire in 1997 and 2001, respectively. The Company intends to
selectively pursue additional centers through the Request for Proposals ("RFP")
process.
MARKETING AND DEVELOPMENT
The primary focus of the Company's marketing activities is on identifying
other providers who may consider an acquisition or a management contract
arrangement, and on contacting state and local governments and governmental
agencies responsible for the provision of the types of disabilities services and
youth services offered by the Company.
The Executive Vice President is responsible for the Company's development
department which directs the Company's marketing efforts for disabilities
services and provides support as needed for the youth services marketing
efforts. Responsibility for marketing activities related to youth services are
divided among the following officers of the Company and its subsidiaries: the
Vice President, Job Corps; the Vice President, Alternative Youth Services; and
the President and Vice President, Development, of Youthtrack. Marketing
activities are reviewed on a regular basis by senior management.
In its pursuit of government contracts, the Company contacts governments
and governmental agencies in geographical areas in which it operates and in
others in which it has identified expansion potential. Contacts are made and
maintained by both regional operations personnel and corporate development
personnel, augmented as appropriate by other senior management. The Company
targets new areas based largely on its assessment of the needs for its services,
the system of reimbursement, the receptivity to out-of-state and proprietary
operators, expected changes in the service delivery system (i.e., privatization
or downsizing), the labor climate and existing competition.
The Company also seeks to identify service needs or possible changes in the
service delivery or reimbursement system of governmental entities that may be
driven by changes in administrative philosophy, budgetary considerations, or
pressure or legal actions brought by advocacy groups. As needs or possible
changes are identified, the Company attempts to work with and provide input to
the responsible governmental personnel and to work with provider associations
and consumer advocacy groups to this end. If an RFP results from this process,
the Company then determines whether and on what terms it will respond and
participate in the competitive process.
36
<PAGE> 38
With regard to identifying other providers who may be acquisition or
management contract candidates, the Company attempts to establish relationships
with providers through presentations at national and local conferences,
membership in national and local provider associations, direct contact via mail,
telephone or personal visit and follow up with information packets including
video presentation.
In some cases, the Company may be contacted directly and requested to
submit proposals or become a provider in order to provide services to address
specific problems. These may include an emergency takeover of a troubled
operation or the need to develop a large number of community placements within a
certain time period.
REFERRAL SOURCES
The Company receives substantially all of its new MR/DD clients from
referrals from third parties. Generally, family members of persons with MR/DD
are first made aware of available residential or alternative living arrangements
through a state or local case management system. Case management systems are
operated by governmental or private agencies. The Company's ABI services receive
referrals from doctors, hospitals, private and workers' compensation insurers
and attorneys. In either case, where it is determined that some form of MR/DD or
ABI service is appropriate, a referral of one or more providers of such services
is then made to family members or other interested persons. The Company
generally receives referrals or placements of individuals to its AYS and
Youthtrack programs through state or local agencies or entities responsible for
such services, and individuals are recruited to its Job Corps programs largely
through private contractors. The Company's reputation and prior experience with
agency staff, case workers and others in positions to make referrals to the
Company are important for building and maintaining census in the Company's
operations.
COMPETITION
The provision of disabilities services and youth services is subject to a
number of competitive factors, including range and quality of services provided,
cost-effectiveness, reporting and regulatory expertise, reputation in the
community, and the location and appearance of facilities and programs. These
markets are highly fragmented, with no single company or entity holding a
dominant market share. The Company competes with other for-profit companies,
not-for-profit entities and governmental agencies.
With regard to disabilities services, individual states remain a major
provider of MR/DD services, primarily through the operation of large
institutions, and not-for-profit organizations are active in all states and
range from small agencies serving a limited area with specific programs to
multi-state organizations. Many of these organizations are affiliated with
advocacy and sponsoring groups, such as community mental health and mental
retardation centers and religious organizations.
The youth services business in which the Company engages is one that other
entities may easily enter without substantial capital investment or experience
in management of education or treatment facilities. In addition, certain
not-for-profit entities may offer education and treatment programs at a lower
cost than the Company due in part to government subsidies, foundation grants,
tax deductible contributions or other financial resources not available to
for-profit companies.
Currently, only a limited number of companies actively seek Job Corps
contracts because the bidding process is highly specialized and technical and
requires a significant investment of personnel and other expenses over a period
of several months. Approximately one-half of the privately-operated centers are
operated by the three largest operators. Competition for Job Corps contracts has
increased as the DOL has made efforts to encourage new participants in the
program, particularly minority-owned businesses, and as several companies with
government defense contracting experience have entered the Job Corps market.
Certain proprietary competitors operate in multiple jurisdictions and may
be well capitalized. The Company also competes in some markets with smaller
local companies that may have a better understanding of the local conditions and
may be better able to gain political and public acceptance. Such competition may
adversely affect the Company's ability to obtain new contracts and complete
acquisitions on favorable terms.
37
<PAGE> 39
The Company faces significant competition from all of these providers in the
states in which it now operates and expects to face similar competition in any
state that it may enter in the future.
Professional staff retention and development is a critical factor in the
successful operation of the Company's business. The competition for talented
professional personnel, such as therapists and QMRPs, is intense. The Company
utilizes a standard professional service agreement for provison of services by
certain professional personnel, which is generally terminable on 30 or 60 day
notice. The demands of providing the requisite quality of service to persons
with special needs contribute to a high turnover rate of direct service staff.
Consequently, a high priority is placed on recruiting, training and retaining
competent and caring personnel.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND REIMBURSEMENT
The operations of the Company are subject to compliance with various
federal, state and local statutes and regulations. Compliance with state
licensing requirements is a prerequisite for participation in
government-sponsored health care assistance programs, such as Medicaid. The
following sets forth in greater detail certain regulatory considerations
applicable to the Company:
Funding Levels. Federal and state funding for the Company's disabilities
services business is subject to statutory and regulatory changes, administrative
rulings, interpretations of policy, intermediary determinations and governmental
funding restrictions, all of which may materially increase or decrease program
reimbursement. Congress has historically attempted to curb the growth of federal
funding of such programs, including limitations on payments to facilities under
the Medicaid program. These efforts have intensified recently. Federal law
requires Medicaid programs to pay rates that are reasonable and adequate to meet
the costs which must be incurred by an efficient provider in order to provide
services conforming with applicable laws, regulations and quality and safety
standards. Although states in general have historically increased rates to
compensate for inflationary factors, some have curtailed funding due to state
budget deficiencies or for other reasons. In several such instances providers,
acting through their state health care trade associations, have been able to
negotiate or employ legal action in order to reach a compromise settlement.
Revenues in the future may be affected by changes in rate-setting
structures, methodologies or interpretations that may be proposed or under
consideration in states where the Company operates.
Reimbursement Requirements. To qualify for reimbursement under Medicaid
programs, facilities and programs are subject to various requirements of
participation and other requirements imposed by federal and state authorities.
In order to maintain a Medicaid or state contract, certain statutory and
regulatory requirements must be met. These participation requirements relate to
client rights, quality of services, physical plant and administration. Long-term
providers, like the Company, are subject to periodic unannounced inspection by
state authorities, often under contract with the appropriate federal agency, to
assure compliance with the requirements of participation in the Medicaid or
state program.
Licensure. In addition to the requirements to be met by the Company for
participation in the Medicaid program, the Company's facilities and programs are
usually subject to annual licensing and other regulatory requirements of state
and local authorities. These requirements relate to the condition of the
facilities, the quality and adequacy of personnel and the quality of services.
State licensing and other regulatory requirements vary from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction and are subject to change.
Regulatory Enforcement. From time to time, the Company receives notices
from regulatory inspectors that in their opinion there are deficiencies for
failure to comply with various regulatory requirements. The Company reviews such
notices and takes corrective action as appropriate. In most cases, the Company
and the reviewing agency agree upon the steps to be taken to bring the facility
or program into compliance with regulatory requirements. Serious deficiencies
can result in decertification or delicensure actions by the Health Care
Financing Administration or state regulatory agencies.
Restrictions on Acquisitions and Additions. All states in which the
Company currently operates have adopted laws or regulations which generally
require that a state agency approve the Company as a provider and many require a
determination that a need exists prior to the addition of beds or services.
38
<PAGE> 40
Cross Disqualifications and Delicensure. In certain circumstances,
conviction of abusive or fraudulent behavior with respect to one facility or
program may subject other facilities and programs under common control or
ownership to disqualification from participation in the Medicaid program.
Executive Order 12549 prohibits any corporation or facility from participating
in federal contracts if it or its principals (including but not limited to
officers, directors, owners and key employees) have been debarred, suspended or
declared ineligible, or have been voluntarily excluded from participating in
federal contracts. In addition, some state regulations provide that all
facilities licensed with a state under common ownership or control are subject
to delicensure if any one or more of such facilities are delicensed.
Regulation of Certain Transactions. The Social Security Act, as amended by
the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (the "Health
Insurance Act"), provides for the mandatory exclusion of providers and related
persons from participation in the Medicaid program if the individual or entity
has been convicted of a criminal offense related to the delivery of an item or
service under the Medicaid program or relating to neglect or abuse of residents.
Further, individuals or entities may be, but are not required to be, excluded
from the Medicaid program under certain circumstances including, but not limited
to, the following: convictions relating to fraud; obstruction of an
investigation of a controlled substance; license revocation or suspension;
exclusion or suspension from a state or federal health care program; filing
claims for excessive charges or unnecessary services or failure to furnish
medically necessary services; or ownership or control by an individual who has
been excluded from the Medicaid program, against whom a civil monetary penalty
related to the Medicaid program has been assessed, or who has been convicted of
a crime described in this paragraph. The illegal remuneration provisions of the
Social Security Act make it a felony to solicit, receive, offer to pay or pay
any kickback, bribe or rebate in return for referring a resident for any item or
service, or in return for purchasing, leasing or ordering any good, service or
item, for which payment may be made under the Medicaid program. Other provisions
in the Health Insurance Act proscribe false statements in billing and in meeting
reporting requirements and in representations made with respect to the
conditions or operations of facilities. A violation of the illegal remuneration
statute is a felony and may result in the imposition of criminal penalties,
including imprisonment for up to five years and/or a fine of up to $25,000.
Further, a civil action to exclude a provider from the Medicaid program could
occur. There are also other civil and criminal statutes applicable to the
industry, such as those governing false billings and anti-supplementation
restrictions and the new health care offenses contained in the Health Insurance
Act, such as health care fraud, theft or embezzlement, false statements and
obstruction of criminal investigation of health care offenses. Criminal
sanctions for these new health care criminal offenses can be severe. Sanctions
for the newly-enacted health care fraud offense, for example, include
imprisonment for up to 20 years. The agencies administering the Medicaid program
have increased their criminal and civil enforcement activity in the prevention
of program fraud and abuse, including the payment of illegal remuneration.
Environmental Laws. Certain federal and state laws govern the handling and
disposal of medical, infectious and hazardous waste. Failure to comply with
those laws or the regulations promulgated thereunder could subject an entity
covered by these laws to fines, criminal penalties and other enforcement
actions.
OSHA. Federal regulations promulgated by the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration impose additional requirements on the Company including
those protecting employees from exposure to elements such as bloodborne
pathogens. The Company cannot predict the frequency of compliance, monitoring or
enforcement actions to which it may be subject as regulations are implemented
and there can be no assurance that such regulations will not adversely affect
the operations of the Company.
INSURANCE
The Company maintains professional malpractice and general liability
insurance on professionals and other staff employed in each of its locations in
addition to coverage for the customary risks inherent in the operation of
business in general. While the Company believes its insurance policies to be
adequate in amount and coverage for its current operations, there can be no
assurance that coverage will continue to be available in adequate amounts or at
a reasonable cost.

EMPLOYEES
As of February 28, 1997, the Company employed 8,218 employees, including
7,308 in its Division for Persons with Disabilities, 762 in its Division for
Youth Services, and 148 in its corporate offices. As of that date, the Company
was not subject to collective bargaining agreements with any of its employees.
PROPERTIES
As of December 31, 1996, the Company owned 153 properties and operated
facilities and programs at 268 leased properties. All other facilities and
programs are operated under management contracts.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is a party to legal and/or administrative proceedings involving
state program administrators and others, that, in the event of unfavorable
outcomes, may affect revenues and period-to-period comparisons. In Indiana, in
July 1995, the Company and other providers were notified of reimbursement rates
issued retroactive to July 1, 1994 which were lower than the Company and certain
other providers projected based on a settlement that had been reached with the
State concerning the rate-setting methodology for larger facilities. The Company
and another provider filed a lawsuit and an agreement was reached with the State
under which the implementation of the new rate structure was delayed until March
1, 1996, at which time the State prospectively implemented the new rates. A
preliminary injunction was denied and testimony in the trial on the merits was
concluded in August 1996. There has been no decision in the case. If the State
is ultimately successful on all issues it could result in a reduction of net
revenues to the Company of approximately $1.3 million for the thirty months
ended December 31, 1996. Any reduction would be recorded against the Company's
allowance for contractual adjustments and/or net revenues, as appropriate, in
the period in which the issues are resolved. Based on the outcome of the
preliminary injunction proceedings, the Company is unable to predict whether it
will prevail on the merits of all issues in the litigation but the opinion of
its legal counsel in the case is that there is a significant likelihood that the
Company will ultimately prevail on the merits of the principal issues involved,
in which case the Company believes that the ultimate net effect on the results
of its operations, cash flow or financial condition will not be material.
In January 1995, the Company filed an action for declaratory judgment
against the landlord of four of the Company's large facilities in Indiana to
enforce a provision in the leases for such facilities to the effect that the
parties would renegotiate the terms of the leases if any change in the Medicaid
program becomes effective or is implemented such that reimbursement is reduced
to the extent that the economic feasibility of the lease is materially and
adversely affected. The parties have agreed to suspend the litigation pending
the outcome of the Indiana rate litigation, and the Company is unable at this
time to determine whether it will ultimately prevail in the matter. The Company
subleased three other large facilities in Indiana from the same landlord. The
sublease, which did not include a renegotiation provision, expired on July 31,
1996, and the parties have entered into a new nine-month lease, on essentially
the same terms and conditions as the previous sublease, which will expire on
April 30, 1997 and are currently in discussions regarding further extension of
the lease. These three facilities account for approximately $6.0 million in
annual revenues. As a result of these matters, the Company may be compelled or
may elect ultimately to reduce certain of its facility-based operations in
Indiana.
The Kentucky Department of Medicaid Services ("Kentucky") has notified the
provider of record of a larger facility managed by the Company of certain
adjustments to the facility cost report for the 1991 fiscal year as a result of
the completion of its audit for that year. Kentucky has also audited the
facility for fiscal years 1992 through 1995, but has not yet issued its audit
report with respect to these years. The Company and the provider believe that
Kentucky does not have the legal and factual basis for these adjustments and
thus, since receipt of the notification in August 1995, have engaged in various
administrative and other efforts with Kentucky to have the proposed adjustments
withdrawn. To date, the parties have been unable to resolve the matter. The
provider has filed an action for declaratory judgment and injunctive relief
against Kentucky in which it seeks a judicial determination concerning the
adjustments. The provider and the Company, in the opinion of their respective
counsel for this matter, believe that there is a significant likelihood that the
provider
40
<PAGE> 42
will ultimately prevail on the merits of its argument that the improper legal
standards have been applied in the adjustments. The Company believes that upon
application of the appropriate legal standards, the ultimate net effect of the
adjustments on the results of its operations, cash flow or financial condition
will not be material. However, if Kentucky ultimately prevails in the litigation
and requires similar adjustments for the subsequent years under audit (fiscal
years 1992 through 1995), up to $3.4 million of the provider's costs in the
aggregate could be disallowed. The Company is unable at this time to determine
the effect on the Company if Kentucky should prevail.
In May 1996, legislation was passed in Florida that would significantly
reduce rates effective September 1, 1996 for the operations that the Company
manages in that state. Both individual consumers and a trade association filed
motions in pre-existing lawsuits to stop implementation of the new rates. A
preliminary injunction has been granted in one of the actions which requires the
State to continue full funding of Intermediate Care Facilities/Developmental
Disabilities services pending approval of an alternate plan by the Health Care
Financing Administration. In Tennessee, new regulations were scheduled to take
effect October 1, 1996, which would reduce certain allowable costs to providers
which could affect the management fees of the Company under its management
contracts with not-for-profit providers for group homes. These regulations have
been withdrawn and regulations have been proposed, but not yet enacted, that are
acceptable to the providers and managers. The Company is unable, at this time,
to determine the extent of the effect any such regulations will have on revenues
and profit contributions.
In addition, the Company is a party to various other legal proceedings
encountered in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that many
of such lawsuits are without merit. Further, such claims are generally covered
by insurance. The Company does not believe the results of such litigation will
have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition or
results of operations.

severally, to purchase from the Company and the Selling Shareholders, the number
of shares of Common Stock set forth below opposite their respective names.

</TABLE>
In the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters have agreed, subject to the
terms and conditions therein set forth, to purchase all shares of Common Stock
offered hereby if any of such shares are purchased.
The Company and the Selling Shareholders have been advised that the
Underwriters propose initially to offer the shares of Common Stock to the public
at the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus and
to certain dealers at such price less a concession not in excess of $
per share. The Underwriters may allow and such dealers may reallow a concession
not in excess of $ per share to certain other dealers. After the
initial public offering, the public offering price and such concessions may be
changed.
The offering of the shares of Common Stock is made for delivery when, as
and if accepted by the Underwriters and subject to prior sale and to withdrawal,
cancellation or modification of the offer without notice. The Underwriters
reserve the right to reject any order for the purchase of the shares.
The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable not
later than 30 days from the date of this Prospectus, to purchase up to an
aggregate of 450,000 additional shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments.
To the extent the Underwriters exercise this option, each of the Underwriters
will have a firm commitment to purchase approximately the same percentage
thereof which the number of shares of Common Stock to be purchased by it shown
in the above table bears to the total and the Company will be obligated,
pursuant to the option, to sell such shares to the Underwriters. The
Underwriters may exercise such option only to cover over-allotments made in
connection with the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby. If
purchased, the Underwriters will sell such additional shares on the same terms
as those on which the 3,000,000 shares are being offered.
In connection with this offering, certain Underwriters may engage in
passive market making transactions in the Common Stock on the Nasdaq National
Market immediately prior to the commencement of sales in the offering in
accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M. Passive market making consists of
displaying bids on the Nasdaq National Market limited by the bid prices of
independent market makers and making purchases limited by such prices and
effected in response to order flow. Net purchases by a passive market maker on
each day are limited to a specified percentage of the passive market maker's
average daily trading volume in the Common Stock during a specified period and
must be discontinued when such limit is reached. Passive market making may
stabilize the market price of the Common Stock at a level above that which might
otherwise prevail and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
Subject to applicable limitations, the Underwriters, in connection with the
Offering, may place bids for or make purchases of the Common Stock in the open
market or otherwise, for long or short account, or cover short positions
incurred, to stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the price of the Common
Stock, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the
open market. There can be no assurance that the price of the Common Stock will
be stabilized, or that stabilizing, if commenced, will not be discontinued at
46
<PAGE> 48
any time. Subject to applicable limitations, the Underwriters may also place
bids or make purchases on behalf of the underwriting syndicate to reduce a short
position created in connection with the Offering.
The Company, its executive officers and directors and the Selling
Shareholders have agreed that they will not, without the prior written consent
of J.C. Bradford & Co., issue, sell, transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of
any shares of the Common Stock or options, warrants, or rights to acquire Common
Stock owned by them prior to 90 days from the date of this Prospectus.
The Underwriting Agreement provides that the Company and the Selling
Shareholders will indemnify the Underwriters and controlling persons, if any,
against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities
Act, or will contribute to payments which the Underwriters or any such
controlling persons may be required to make in respect thereof.
J.C. Bradford & Co. and Equitable Securities Corporation have, from time to
time, provided investment banking and financial advisory services for the
Company.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Res-Care, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying supplemental consolidated balance sheets
of Res-Care, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the
related supplemental consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity,
and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31,
1996. These supplemental consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these supplemental consolidated financial statements 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.
The supplemental consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect
to the merger of Res-Care, Inc. and the partnership interests in Premier
Rehabilitation Centers effective January 1, 1997, which has been accounted for
as a pooling-of-interests as described in notes 1 and 13 to the supplemental
consolidated financial statements. Generally accepted accounting principles
proscribe giving effect to a consummated business combination accounted for by
the pooling-of-interests method in financial statements that do not include the
date of consummation. These financial statements do not extend through the date
of consummation; however, they will become the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Company after annual financial statements covering the date of
consummation of the business combination are issued.
In our opinion, the supplemental consolidated financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of
Res-Care, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the
three-year period ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles applicable after financial statements are issued for a
period which includes the date of consummation of the business combination.

RES-CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation and Description of Business
The supplemental consolidated financial statements have been prepared to
give retroactive effect of the acquisition of the partnership interests in
Premier Rehabilitation Centers (Premier) as described in Note 13. Generally
accepted accounting principles proscribe giving effect to a consummated business
combination accounted for by the pooling-of-interests method in financial
statements that do not include the date of consummation. These financial
statements reflect the consolidated financial position of Res-Care, Inc. and its
wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries (the Company) prior to the date of
consummation; however, they will become the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Company after annual financial statements covering the date of
consummation of the business combination are issued. Intercompany transactions
and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
The Company receives revenues primarily from the delivery of residential,
training, educational and support services to various populations with special
needs, including persons with mental retardation and other developmental
disabilities and at-risk troubled youths that have typically been provided by
state and local government agencies and not-for-profit organizations.
Net Revenues
Disabilities Services: Client services are provided at rates established
at the time services are rendered. Payments for services rendered to clients
covered by Medicaid are generally less than the Company's established rates.
Contractual allowances and adjustments are recorded to reflect the difference
between established rates and expected reimbursement. Retroactively calculated
contractual adjustments are accrued on an estimated basis in the periods the
related services are rendered and recorded as adjustments to revenues in future
periods when final settlements are determined.
Revenues are derived primarily from state government agencies under the
Medicaid reimbursement system and from management contracts with private
operators, generally not-for-profit providers, who contract with state
government agencies and are also reimbursed under the Medicaid system.
Revenues in the future may be affected by changes in rate-setting
structures, methodologies or interpretations that may be proposed in states
where the Company operates. Some states are considering initiating managed care
plans for persons served in the Medicaid programs. At this time, the Company
cannot determine the impact of such changes, or the effect of any possible
Congressional actions.
Youth Services: Revenues include amounts reimbursable under cost
reimbursement contracts with the U.S. Department of Labor for operating Job
Corps centers. The contracts provide for payments based on per diem rates or
cost reimbursement formulas. Under government regulations, the Company is
reimbursed its allowable indirect costs for general and administrative expenses,
plus a predetermined fee. Final determination of amounts due under the contracts
is subject to audit and review by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Juvenile treatment revenues are derived primarily from state awarded
contracts and from state agencies under various reimbursement systems.
Reimbursement from state or locally awarded contracts varies per facility or
program, and is typically paid via fixed contract amounts, flat rates, or
cost-based rates.
For both disabilities services and youth services, expenses are subject to
examination by agencies administering the contracts and services. Management
believes that adequate provisions have been made for potential adjustments
arising from such examinations. Revenues and accounts receivable are recorded
net of estimated allowances and adjustments. Provision for bad debt expense, if
any, is provided for in the period the expense is determined by management.

NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all
highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less
to be cash equivalents.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization are provided over the estimated useful lives
of the assets, principally by the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives
for buildings are 20-40 years. Leasehold improvements are generally amortized
over the life of the respective leases. The useful lives of furniture and
equipment vary from three to seven years. The Company acts as custodian of
assets where the Company has contracts to operate facilities or programs owned
or leased by the U.S. Department of Labor, various states and private providers.
The excess of acquisition cost over net assets acquired and the cost of
licenses are amortized over 20-30 years using the straight-line method. The
Company assesses the recoverability of goodwill and other intangibles as events
or circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover their carrying amount.
Such evaluation is based on various analyses, including cash flow and
profitability projections that incorporate, as applicable, the impact on
existing company businesses. The analyses necessarily involve significant
management judgment to evaluate the capacity of an acquired business to perform
within projections.
Inventories
Inventories consist principally of supplies, food and linens and are stated
at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Deferred Start-Up Costs
Deferred start-up costs are reimbursable under applicable state regulations
and include administrative and staff salaries, rent, professional fees,
insurance and other costs incurred during the period prior to operation of the
various facilities. These costs are amortized on a straight-line method over
periods ranging from five to seven years, consistent with applicable state
reimbursement regulations.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method.
Under such method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Pro forma summarized information has been presented as an addendum to the
supplemental consolidated statements of income to include the impact of income
taxes as if Premier's partnership operations had been taxed as a corporation.
Per Share Data
The Company's Board of Directors authorized a three-for-two stock split to
be distributed on June 4, 1996, to shareholders of record on May 24, 1996. All
share and per share data included in this annual report have been restated to
reflect the stock split. Per share data is based on the weighted average number
of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during the period.
F-8
<PAGE> 58
RES-CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
Per share amounts have also been restated to reflect the issuance of
409,250 shares of common stock in the Premier acquisition.
Insurance
The Company maintains insurance in the form of commercial general liability
and commercial umbrella liability policies, which include malpractice insurance.
Management intends to maintain such coverages in the future and is of the
opinion that insurance coverages are adequate to cover any potential losses on
asserted claims. Management is unaware of any incidents which would ultimately
result in a loss in excess of the Company's insurance coverages. In addition,
the Company self-insures group health insurance for its employees. Such
self-insurance costs are accrued based upon the aggregate of the liability for
reported claims and an estimated liability for claims incurred but not reported.
The Company has an annual stop-loss limit of $125,000 for each covered
individual.
Workers' compensation policies covering all operations except for New York,
West Virginia, Ohio and Puerto Rico are covered under large deductible or
retrospective policies. The Company is responsible for paying the first $250,000
of each claim until the total of all claims exceeds the aggregate stop loss. The
insurance company is responsible for the claim in excess of the deductible and
for all claims in excess of the aggregate stop loss. At this time, no claim is
likely to exceed the deductible and all claims are not likely to exceed the
aggregate stop loss. Estimated future payments have been expensed.
Financial Instruments
Various methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its
fair value disclosures for significant financial instruments. Fair values of
cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts and notes receivable
and trade accounts payable approximate their carrying amount because of the
short maturity of those investments. The fair value of short-term debt
approximates its carrying amount. The fair value of long-term debt is based on
the present value of the underlying cash flows discounted at the current
estimated borrowing rates available to the Company, and approximates its
carrying value as interest rates are variable.
Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions
relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in 1994 and 1995 have been reclassified to conform with the
1996 presentation.
2. CASH HELD IN ESCROW
On May 31, 1988, the Company sold the assets of a facility. In conjunction
with the sale, $541,000 of the sale proceeds were deferred to provide for
certain contingencies relating to periods prior to sale. In the fourth quarter
of 1995, funds held in escrow were returned and the Company recognized a
one-time credit of $507,000, net of expenses.
3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On May 31, 1995, the Company sold all of its stock in its unconsolidated
affiliate, Home Care Affiliates, Inc. ("HCAI"), to Housecall Medical Resources,
Inc. of Atlanta, Georgia, for $17.5 million in cash before
F-9
<PAGE> 59
RES-CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO SUPPLEMENTAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
accounting for other costs of $2.0 million. The Company owned 68% of the stock
of HCAI, a provider of home nursing and related home health services, a business
separate from that of the Company. Due to certain provisions of the shareholder
agreement, HCAI was accounted for as an unconsolidated affiliate. The effect of
the sale of the Company's interest in HCAI has been reported in the accompanying
financial statements as a discontinued operation.
The Company provided managerial and administrative services to a division
of HCAI under an administrative management agreement. Administrative expenses
include personnel, management, accounting, risk management, benefits management,
purchasing and various other services, and amounted to approximately $838,000
for the year ended December 31, 1994. For the five months ended May 31, 1995,
the approximate amount was $433,000. The Company will continue to provide these
services under a separate administrative services agreement that expires May 31,
1999.

On December 23, 1996, the Company entered into a new revolving credit
facility with its banks: PNC Bank, Kentucky, Inc.; National City Bank of
Kentucky; SunTrust Bank, Nashville, N.A.; and Bank One, Kentucky, N.A. The
facility provides for a maximum borrowing of $65 million, including up to $10
million in letters of credit. It expires and is due at maturity in December
2001, subject to extension. The credit facility is secured by all accounts
receivable and general intangibles of the Company. As of December 31, 1996,
letters of credit in the amount of $3.5 million were outstanding. Under the
facility, the Company is provided a cash management system in which accounts are
replenished daily for checks clearing the previous day. Account replenishments
are applied against the outstanding borrowing.
As of December 31, 1996, uncleared checks in the amount of $3.1 million
were outstanding and are reflected in long-term debt. The agreement contains
certain covenants pertaining to net worth, current ratio, debt service coverage
ratios and ratio of total indebtedness to cash flow from operations. The Company
was in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 1996. The interest rate
was 6.9% and 6.4% as of December 31, 1995, and 1996, respectively.
Interest expense was $164, $630, and $1,351 in the years 1994, 1995 and
1996, respectively. During 1995, $136 of interest paid was capitalized as part
of the purchase and renovation of a corporate office building.

No valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was required as of December
31, 1994, 1995 or 1996, nor was there any change in the total valuation
allowance for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996. The realization of
deferred tax assets is dependent upon the Company generating future taxable
income when temporary differences become deductible. Based upon the historical
and projected levels of taxable income, management believes it is more likely
than not the Company will realize the benefits of the deductible differences.
See the pro forma information included as an addendum to the supplemental
consolidated statements of income for a summary of the impact of income taxes as
if Premier's partnership operations had been taxed as a corporation.
8. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company's continuing operations, all of which are in the United States
and Puerto Rico, are broken into two business segments as described in note 1.
Operating income is defined as net revenues less facility, program and
operating expenses. Identifiable assets are those assets used in the operations
of each business segment. The following table shows net revenues, operating
income and other financial information by business segment.

9. BENEFIT PLANS
(In thousands, except share and per share data)
On January 1, 1995, the Company amended and restated its Money Purchase
Pension Plan in its entirety as the Res-Care, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan. In
connection with this plan, the Company contributed an amount equal to 3% of
eligible employee salary and an additional 3% of employee salary in excess of
$40. Total expenses relating to this plan for the years ended December 31, 1994,
1995 and 1996, were $1,360, $1,357 and $1,883, respectively.
On January 1, 1995, as part of the Retirement Savings Plan, the Company
established a 401(k) plan in which eligible employees may participate. In
connection with the plan, the Company matches one-half of the employee's
contribution up to a maximum of 2%. The total expense relating to this plan for
the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 was $344 and $354 respectively.
The Company has stock-based compensation plans, which are described below.
The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related Interpretations in accounting
for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its
fixed stock option plans. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based
compensation plans been determined consistent with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, the Company's net income and income per share
amounts would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below.

The Company's stock-based compensation plans are fixed stock option plans.
Under the 1991 Incentive Stock Option Plan, the Company may grant options to its
salaried officers and employees for up to 2,534,062 shares of common stock.
Under the plan, the exercise price of each option equals the market price of the
Company's stock on the date of grant, and an option's maximum term is normally
five years. All options, except those granted to its president and chief
executive officer, vest 20 percent per year over five years. Options for 97,500
shares granted to the president and chief executive officer on October 26, 1995
vested immediately, and options for 112,797 shares granted to the president and
chief executive officer on November 5, 1996 vest 100% on March 15, 1997.
Under a stock option plan adopted October 28, 1993, 60,000 shares are
available for issuance to nonemployee members of the Board of Directors at an
exercise price which cannot be less than the fair market value on the date of
grant.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average
assumptions used for grants in 1995 and 1996: no dividends paid, as it has been
the Company's policy not to declare or pay dividends since its initial public
offering in 1992 and the Company does not anticipate paying dividends in the
foreseeable future; expected volatility, 49%; risk-free interest rate, 6.368%;
and expected lives, five to six years.

from the date of its acquisition. Except for the acquisitions of the 12 Beverly
facilities and the 44 group homes in Texas, pro forma results of operations have
not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions were not
significant.
On August 31, 1993, the Company entered into an agreement with several
companies controlled by a single shareholder to acquire up to 59 group homes in
Texas under leasing arrangements with certain obligations and options to
purchase over a three-year period. In 1995, the Company completed the purchase
under the agreement acquiring 44 group homes. The purchase price of the 44 group
homes and other assets was $5.7 million, of which $3.5 million was paid in cash
and the balance by mortgages previously acquired and other accrued expenses. The
Company has been operating 57 of the group homes since September 1, 1993. The
allocation of the purchase price for the 44 group homes was as follows:

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Section 271B.8-510 of the Kentucky Business Corporation Act (the "Act")
permits the indemnification by a corporation of any director who is made party
to a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding because he is
or was a director of such corporation. To be eligible for indemnification, such
person must have conducted himself in good faith and reasonably believed that
his conduct, if undertaken in his official capacity with the corporation, was in
the corporation's best interests, and, if not in his official capacity, was at
least not opposed to the corporation's best interests. In the case of a criminal
proceeding, the director must also not have had reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful. A director may not be indemnified under the
above-referenced section in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of
the corporation in which the director was adjudged liable to the corporation or
in connection with any other proceeding charging improper personal benefit to
him, whether or not involving action in official capacity, in which he was
adjudged liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received by
him. Indemnification permitted under Section 271B.8-510 of the Act in connection
with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation shall be limited to
reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the proceeding. Section
271B.8-560 of the Act provides that a Kentucky corporation may indemnify its
officers, employees and agents to the same extent as directors. Mandatory
indemnification against reasonable expenses incurred in connection with a
proceeding is provided for by the Act, unless otherwise limited by the
corporation's articles of incorporation, where a director or officer has been
wholly successful on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding
to which he was a party because he is or was a director or officer of the
corporation. A court of competent jurisdiction may also order indemnification if
the director is fairly and reasonably entitled thereto in view of all relevant
circumstances, whether or not he met the applicable standard of conduct or was
adjudged liable to the corporation, but if he was adjudged liable, his
indemnification shall be limited to reasonable expenses incurred.
The Act provides that indemnification pursuant to its provisions is not
exclusive of other rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled
under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or
otherwise. Additionally, the Act provides that a corporation may purchase and
maintain insurance on behalf of directors, officers, employees or agents of the
corporation against liability asserted against or incurred by such party in
their respective capacity with the corporation.
Article X of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation
and Article X of the Company's Bylaws provide for indemnification of its
directors, officers, employees and other agents to the maximum extent permitted
by law.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(b) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such
II-3
<PAGE> 73
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
(c) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part
of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in
a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of
prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
