                                   (Unaudited)

Note 1 - General
- ----------------

These financial statements have been prepared by First American Health Concepts,
Inc. (the "Company") without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, the unaudited
financial  statements  include  all  adjustments   (consisting  only  of  normal
recurring  adjustments)  necessary to present fairly the financial position, the
results of operations, and statement of cash flows for the periods presented.

The unaudited  financial  statements  presented  herein were prepared  using the
underlying   accounting  principles  utilized  in  the  Company's  1997  audited
financial  statements,  filed on Form 10-KSB with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  on October 29,  1997.  Operating  results for the three months ended
October  31, 1997 are not  necessarily  indicative  of the  results  that may be
expected for the year ending July 31, 1998.


Note 2 - Obligation Under Capital Lease
- ---------------------------------------

The Company leases  telephone  equipment under the terms of a capital lease. The
lease terms  provide for sixty (60)  monthly  installments  of $1,867  including
principal  and interest,  through  January,  1999.  At October 31, 1997,  office
equipment included $82,052 and accumulated amortization included $64,583 related
to the asset  covered by this lease.  Following  is a schedule by year of future

Note 3 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan
- --------------------------------------

During fiscal 1994, the Company  implemented  an employee  stock  ownership plan
(First American Health Concepts,  Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan and related
Trust),  qualified  as a stock bonus plan under  Section  401(a) of the Internal
Revenue  Code.  The Plan is  designed  to  invest  primarily  in  Company  stock
exclusively for the benefit of eligible employees of the Company.  Each eligible
employee  becomes  a  participant  in the Plan  upon  completion  of one year of
service as defined by the Plan.  Company  contributions are determined each year
by the Company's  Board of Directors  (subject to certain  limitations)  and are
allocated  among the accounts of the  participants  in proportion to their total
compensation.

In October  1994,  the Trust  borrowed  $422,000  from a bank for a term of five
years  at an  annual  interest  rate of  8.42%.  The  proceeds,  along  with the
Company's 1994 ESOP  contribution,  were used to purchase 91,978 treasury shares
from the  Company.  Because  the  Company has  guaranteed  the bank loan,  it is
reported as long term debt of the Company. The shares sold by the Company to the
Trust are reflected in shareholders'  equity, and an amount corresponding to the
borrowing  (the  guaranteed  ESOP  obligation)  is reported  as a  reduction  of
shareholders' equity.

The loan agreement  requires  quarterly payments of principal and interest which
will be paid from the  Company's  contributions  to the ESOP.  As the  principal
amount of the  borrowing  is  repaid,  the  liability  and the  guaranteed  ESOP
obligation are reduced. The Company recognizes compensation expense equal to the
average fair market value of the shares  committed to be released for allocation
to participants in the ESOP, which is based on total debt service requirements.

Minimum  remaining  principal  payments  required to be made during fiscal years
ending July 31 are as follows: 1998 - $63,300; 1999 - $84,400; 2000 - $21,100.

                                                                          Page 7

Management's Discussion and Analysis
- ------------------------------------

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

Operating  revenues  for the quarter  ended  October  31,  1997 were  $2,004,000
compared to  $1,618,000  for the quarter  ended October 31, 1996, an increase of
24%.  Although  membership  in  the  Company's  traditional  vision  plan,  ECPA
Non-Insured,  increased  from the prior year to 10.2  million  members,  related
revenues increased 22% due to the addition of relatively  higher-priced  groups.
Increased  revenues were also generated by the Company's  indemnity plans,  ECPA
Insured and ECPA Self-funded,  which increased  enrollments by approximately 50%
during the past year.  Revenues  from these plans  increased 32% to $273,000 for
the first quarter.  Management expects all revenue categories to increase in the
second  quarter as a result of  increasing  market  acceptance  of the indemnity
plans and the  effect  of  increased  enrollment  of  employees  into all of the
Company's vision care plans effective January 1, 1998.

Total operating  expenses  increased 34% to $1,980,000  reflecting the increased
costs of business and network development as well as marketing and servicing the
indemnity  plans.  Management  expects  total  operating  expenses  to reflect a
moderate  increase  over the prior year as the Company  continues to upgrade its
customer service and computer processing  capabilities,  and expand its provider
network.

Sales and  marketing  costs of $733,000 for the quarter  ended  October 31, 1997
increased  42% over the same period in fiscal 1997.  The increase was the result
of the addition of marketing,  account services, and sales support personnel and
increased  focus  on  quality  assurance  activities  including  an  intensified
provider  credentialing  program.  The increasing focus on ECPA Insured and ECPA
Self-Funded   products  will  not  require  more  sales  support   personnel  to
accommodate  these sales efforts.  This focus will result in moderate  increased
sales and  marketing  costs  during  fiscal  1998 that  will  serve to  increase
business and projected rate increases which will, in turn, benefit the Company's
managed care margins.

Direct  membership  costs,  those costs  associated  with supplying  vision plan
members with membership  materials,  maintaining a national locator service, and
administering  claims  processing  functions,  increased  from  $472,000 for the
quarter  ended  October 31, 1996 to $503,000 for the quarter  ended  October 31,
1997.  This  7%  increase  resulted  from  the  addition  of  customer  service,
enrollment,   and   claims   administration   personnel,   and   higher   claims
administration costs, both tied to increased insured and self-funded membership.
Management expects direct membership costs to rise as the anticipated membership
growth continues, especially in the indemnity programs.

General and  administration  costs,  amounting  to $599,000 for the three months
ended  October 31, 1997,  show an increase  compared to the same period in 1996.
The increase was the result of expanded employment support services and expenses
related to the Company's overall increased employment levels.

Depreciation  was $131,000 for the quarter  ended  October 31, 1997  compared to
$75,000 for the corresponding three months of 1996.  Depreciation  increased due
to purchases of computer systems and mail processing and telephone  equipment to
accommodate personnel additions and increased member communication requirements.

ESOP compensation expense represents  contributions committed for the periods in
accordance with the Company's  employee stock ownership plan implemented  during
fiscal 1994. Expense recognized is affected by compensation  expense of eligible
participating  employees and the average  market price of the  Company's  common
stock during the quarter.

                                                                          Page 8
<PAGE>
Interest income was $40,000 for the three months ended October 31, 1997 compared
to $57,000  in 1996  reflecting  the  Company's  use of cash to promote  further
infrastructure  development.  For the quarter  ended  October 31, 1997,  average
invested  cash and  marketable  investment  securities  (current  and long term)
decreased compared to the same period in 1996. This decrease was a direct result
of the Company's internal investment.  Disregarding rate fluctuations,  interest
income should show a modest  increase in fiscal 1998 as management  continues to
seek improved investment opportunities.

Interest  expense  increased  compared to the first  quarter of fiscal 1997 as a
result of interest on  borrowings  by the ESOP trust  which are  guaranteed  and
therefore recorded by the Company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
- -------------------------------

Working capital was $4,896,000 and the current ratio was 2.8 to 1 at October 31,
1997  while  cash and  cash  equivalents  comprised  $1,834,000.  The  Company's
principal source of funds during the first quarter was from operations. Maturing
long-term  investments  were also  reinvested in  securities  classified as cash
equivalents.

Major uses of funds during the quarter included investing  activities related to
increased   marketable  security  investments  and  purchases  of  property  and
equipment. The Company did not repurchase any treasury stock during the quarter,
though  the  Board  of  Directors  has  authorized  up to $1  million  for  such
acquisitions as market conditions present attractive opportunity.

Management   anticipates   continuing   expansion  efforts  through   additional
management and staff support  personnel,  capital  additions and  infrastructure
expenditures to accommodate future growth. The Company believes its ongoing cash
flow will support all anticipated expenditures and operating expenses.

                                                                          Page 9
