                        NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (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,
results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

The unaudited  financial  statements  presented  herein were prepared  using the
underlying   accounting  principles  utilized  in  the  Company's  1998  audited
financial  statements,  filed on Form 10-KSB with the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission on October 28, 1998.  These  financial  statements  should be read in
conjunction with the 1998 audited  financial  statements.  Operating results for
the three months ended  October 31, 1998 are not  necessarily  indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ending July 31, 1999.

Certain  accounts  related to prior years have been  reclassified  to conform to
current year presentation.

NOTE 2 - 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 or unearned ESOP shares (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: 1999 - $63,300; 2000 - $21,100.

                                                                          Page 6

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total  revenue for the first  quarter  ended  October  31,  1998 was  $1,836,000
compared  to  $2,004,000  for the  quarter  ended  October  31,  1997.  Revenues
generated from the Company's  indemnity  plans increased 27% to $578,000 for the
first  quarter,  as compared to $456,000  for the same period in the prior year.
During  the  first  quarter  1998,   revenues  from  the  indemnity  plans  were
essentially fee-based. FAHC formed a captive reinsurance company, First American
Reinsurance  Company (FARC) in order to share in underwriting  gains achieved on
the book of  business.  The  associated  premium  revenue was  $219,000  for the
quarter ending October 31, 1998. Revenue's from the Company's traditional vision
care savings  product were  $1,024,000 for the first quarter 1999 as compared to
$1,378,000  for first quarter 1998.  The decrease was due to the  non-renewal of
two large  accounts.  While  management  does  expect a gradual  shift  from the
traditional vision care savings product to indemnity products over time, it does
not believe that the first quarter  decrease is  indicative  of future  periods.
Management expects all revenue categories to increase in the second quarter as a
result of the successful  implementation  of a new marketing  strategy that will
result in new enrollees in the company's vision plans effective January 1, 1999.

Total  operating  expenses  decreased 1% for the first  quarter to $1,970,000 as
compared to $1,980,000 for the same period last year. The decrease is related to
the decrease in revenue.

Sales and  marketing  costs  decreased  41% to $351,000  for the  quarter  ended
October 31,  1998,  as compared to $591,000  for the quarter  ended  October 31,
1997. The decrease is due to a cost containment  program  implemented last year.
The program  centralized  the sales support  function and  streamlined the sales
process which resulted in reduced office,  travel,  administrative  and printing
expense.

Direct  membership  costs,  those costs  associated  with supplying  vision plan
members with membership  materials,  maintaining a national locator service, and
administering  claims processing  functions decreased almost 12% to $660,000 for
the three months  ended  October 31,  1998.  The  decrease is due to  processing
efficiencies  gained  through the  completed  implementation  of a managed  care
information system.

General and administration expenses totaled $657,000 for the first quarter ended
October 31, 1998,  as compared to $498,000 for the first  quarter  ended October
31,  1997.  The  increase  was due to  timing  differences  in legal  and  audit
expenses, and the addition of staff and associated expenses required to complete
the specialized  Knox-Keene Health Care licensing and begin preparation for ECPA
of California to administer vision plans.

Depreciation was $135,000 for the quarter ended October 31, 1998, as compared to
$131,000 for the corresponding  period in the prior year. The slight increase is
due to minor  capital  additions  associated  with the upgrade of telephone  and
computer systems.

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 7
<PAGE>
Interest  income for the first quarter 1999 was $79,000,  as compared to $40,000
for  the  corresponding   period  in  1998.  While  investment  yields  remained
consistent with those of the first quarter of 1998, the increase resulted from a
gain on the sale and reinvestment of certain U.S. Treasury Securities.

Interest  expense  decreased  compared to the first  quarter 1998 as a result of
repayments of borrowings by the ESOP trust,  which are  guaranteed and therefore
recorded by the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Working capital was $2,548,530 and the current ratio was 2.7 to 1 at October 31,
1998,  while  cash,  cash  equivalents  and  marketable   securities   comprised
$1,799,000.  The Company's principal source of funds during the quarter was from
investing activities.

YEAR 2000

The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer  programs  being written using two
digits (rather than four) to define the applicable year.  Computer programs that
have time-sensitive software may not recognize dates beginning in the year 2000,
which could result in miscalculations or system failures.

The  Company  formed a Year 2000  Task  Force  over two  years ago to  perform a
comprehensive review of its core business  applications (i.e. those systems that
the Company is dependent upon for the conduct of daily business operations). The
review was  performed  in  conjunction  with  planning  efforts  to enhance  the
Company's  existing  infrastructure  and to support  the  Company's  addition of
full-benefit  insured and  self-funded  group  vision care  products.  From this
effort,  a managed vision care software  system was purchased to support the new
products and to replace the software system utilized for the vision care savings
product. In addition,  other information systems were identified for upgrade. In
no case was a system  replaced or purchased  solely because of Year 2000 issues.
Thus, the Company does not believe the costs of these software  replacements are
specifically Year 2000 related.

The Company recently received  improvements,  related to Year 2000 issues,  from
its software vendors.  These improvements are being tested and are scheduled for
implementation  by the first half of 1999. The Company believes that it will not
incur additional  material costs in the implementation of the improvements.  All
personal computers and related equipment have already been reviewed and upgraded
(if necessary) for any imbedded software that was not Year 2000 capable.

The Year 2000 Task Force  also  assessed  additional  Year 2000  issues  such as
non-information  technology systems (i.e. telephone systems).  Some improvements
and/or  upgrades  were  identified  as a  result  of the  review.  As  with  the
information technology systems, the review was made in conjunction with a formal
planning  process to enhance  infrastructure.  All upgrades will be completed by
November 1998. The Task Force is also reviewing the Company's relationships with
vendors,  financial institutions,  customers and other third parties to identify
possible Year 2000 issues.

The Company is aware that it could be adversely  affected by Year 2000 issues in
that purchasing  patterns of customers or potential customers may be affected by
Year 2000 issues as companies  expense  significant  resources to correct  their
current  systems  for Year 2000  compliance.  These  expenditures  may result in
reduced  funds  available  to  purchase  services  such as those  offered by the
Company, which could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results and financial condition.  Given the information  available at this time,

                                                                          Page 8
<PAGE>
management believes that this issue should not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's liquidity, its results of operations or its customers.

The Company has not at this time established a formal Year 2000 contingency plan
but will consider  and, if necessary,  address doing so as part of its Year 2000
Task Force activities.  The Company does maintain  contingency plans designed to
address  other  potential  business  interruptions  that may be  usable  in this
situation.
