NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [UNAUDITED]
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Significant accounting policies of Primedex Health Systems, Inc. and affiliates
are set forth in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 1998 as
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(2) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and,
therefore, do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements; however, in the opinion of the management of the Company, all
adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
interim periods ended April 30, 1999 and 1998 have been made. The results of
operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results
for the full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
contained in the Registrant's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1998.
(3) Goodwill
The Company's goodwill as of April 30, 1999 is shown net of accumulated
amortization of approximately $3,650,000. Goodwill amortization expense for the
six months ended April 30, 1999 and 1998 was approximately $360,000 and
$700,000, respectively. The 1999 decrease in amortization expense is primarily
due to the write-off of goodwill in connection with the sale of Scripps Chula
Vista ["SCV"] to Diagnostic Health Services, Inc. ["DHS"] effective January 1,
1998 and the fiscal 1998 year-end recognition of an impairment loss pursuant to
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ["SFAS"] No. 121 which included a
write-off of net goodwill of $8,631,944.
The Company amortizes goodwill over the lesser of 20 years or the estimated
useful life of the assets.
(4) Due to/from Related Party
The Company has a $1,000,000 loan receivable due from its President and C.E.O.
in February 2000 at an 8% interest rate resulting in a discounted value of
$935,714 as of April 30, 1999. For the six months ended April 30, 1999, the
Company recorded interest income on the note of approximately $36,500.
As of October 31, 1998, the Company advanced $115,000 to an officer of the
Company, at no interest, which will be repaid within one year. During the six
months ended April 30, 1999, the Company advanced an additional $55,000 to the
officer with the same terms.
During the year ended October 31, 1997, the Company loaned a former officer of
the Company $25,000, with interest at 6%, for the purchase of 200,000 shares of
the Company's common stock at $.125 per share which was repaid in February 1998.
During the year ended October 31, 1998, the Company loaned an additional
$180,000 to the same former officer. Of his loans, $25,000 was utilized this
year as payment for 62,500 shares of his common stock repurchased by the Company
per the execution of his stock put, while the remaining $155,000 is due in five
years, with interest at 6.5% [of which $30,000 was used to purchase company
stock and is classified as "Stock Subscription - Related Party" on the Company's
financial statements]. As of April 30, 1999, approximately $12,000 of interest
remains accrued on these loans.

(4) Due to/from Related Party [Continued]
At April 30, 1999, the $20,000 due to related party is due to a former officer
of the Company for the acquisition of the Company's common stock that was held
by the former officer.
The notes payable related parties of $2,553,854 are due to an employee, officer
of the Company in the amount of $2,448,862 and an employee of the Company of
$104,992. The notes were incurred during the August 1996 acquisition of DIS
common stock, as these individuals were stockholders of DIS. The notes bear
interest at 6.58% paid annually. The principal is due June 2001.
(5) Litigation
An action entitled Gerald E. Dalrymple, M.D. and Gerald E. Dalrymple, M.D., Inc.
v. Primedex Health Systems, Inc., Howard Berger, M.D., Diagnostic Imaging
Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Diagnostic Imaging Services, Inc., a
California corporation and Diagnostic Health Services, Inc., was filed in the
Los Angeles Superior Court, Case No. SC 047526 on June 3, 1997. The Complaint
alleged that Diagnostic Imaging Services, Inc. ["DIS"] failed to properly pay
plaintiffs fees for performing professional services to which they were entitled
as well as damages for violation of the implied covenant of good faith and fair
dealing, fraud, conversion, breach of fiduciary duty, interference with existing
and prospective business advantage, negligent and intentional inflection of
emotional distress and defamation, and sought damages for an unspecified amount
in excess of $25,000. The Complaint also alleged that by virtue of the
investment by the Company in DIS and the sale of four of the DIS imaging centers
and its ultrasound business to Diagnostic Health Services, Inc., that DIS had
thereby effected either a reorganization, consolidation, merger or transfer of
all or substantially all of its assets to another entity thereby permitting
plaintiffs to convert a warrant for 319,488 shares of DIS's common stock, issued
in connection with the acquisition of Parkside Radiology, to either $1,000,000
cash or stock with a market value of $1,000,000 in the Company, at the election
of the Company.
A partial settlement was reached in August 1997. Pursuant to the settlement, Dr.
Dalrymple assumed ownership of Parkside Radiology and assumed responsibility for
expenses of the facility in the future. Additionally, DIS sold certain of its
equipment and leasehold improvements to Dr. Dalrymple for approximately
$400,000. Plaintiffs' remaining claims, as well as the DIS cross-claims against
Dr. Dalrymple alleging, among other things, that Dr. Dalrymple pursued a plan to
depress Parkside's business, and therefore its value, thus enabling him to
acquire the facility he previously sold to DIS at a depressed price, remained in
dispute pending the trial which concluded on August 20, 1999, with a jury
verdict finding that the Company owes damages for breach of the radiology
services agreement with Dr. Dalrymple; breach of its fiduciary duty to Dr.
Dalrymple; conversion of professional fees belonging to Dr. Dalrymple; breach of
the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in connection with the
radiology services agreement; breach of the implied covenant of good faith and
fair dealing in connection with plaintiff's claim on the warrant; and negligent
infliction of emotional distress in the aggregate amount of $1,935,995.
Additionally, the jury verdict found that Dr. Dalrymple had breached his
agreement whereby he sold Parkside Radiology to DIS and that DIS should receive
damages of $180,000 (an aggregate recovery against the Company of $1,755,995).
The plaintiffs have advised the Company that they intend to seek fees, costs and
additional damages aggregating as much as an additional $1,500,000. The Company
believes that it has reasonable grounds to expect that the damages against the
Company will be reduced prior to the entry of a final judgment. The Company will
consider an appeal pending the court's action on motions which both the
plaintiff and the Company intend to make in connection with the jury's decision.

Forward-Looking Information
The forward-looking statements herein are based on current expectations that
involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements are
based on assumptions that the Company will have adequate financial resources to
fund the development and operation of its business, and there will be no
material adverse change in the Company's operations or business. The foregoing
assumptions are based on judgment with respect to, among other things,
information available to the Company, future economic, competitive and market
conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or
impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the Company's
control. Accordingly, although the Company believes that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any such assumption
could prove to be inaccurate and therefore there can be no assurance that the
results contemplated in forward-looking statements will be realized. There are
number of other risks presented by the Company's business and operations which
could cause the Company's financial performance to vary markedly from prior
results or results contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Management
decisions, including budgeting, are subjective in many respects and periodic
revisions must be made to reflect actual conditions and business developments,
the impact of which may cause the Company to alter its capital investment and
other expenditures, which may also adversely affect the Company's results of
operations. In light of significant uncertainties inherent in forward-looking
information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the inclusion of
such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or
any other person that the Company's objectives or plans will be achieved.

compared to a working capital deficit of $20,191,252 at October 31, 1998, an
increased deficit of $10,701,089. The deficit increase is primarily attributable

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Liquidity and Capital Resources [Continued]
The Company's working capital needs are currently provided under two lines of
credit. Under one line, due December 31, 2001, the Company may borrow the lesser
of 75% to 80% of eligible accounts receivable, $20,000,000 or the prior
120-days' cash collections. Borrowings under this line are repayable together
with interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of (a) the bank's prime
rate plus 2.5%, or (b) 8%. The lender holds a first lien on substantially all of
Radnet's [Beverly Radiology's] assets, the President and C.E.O. of PHS has
personally guaranteed $6,000,000 of the loans and the credit line is
collateralized by a $5,000,000 life insurance policy on the President and C.E.O.
of PHS. At April 30, 1999, approximately $11,970,000 was outstanding under this
line. On September 30, 1999, the Company amended this line of credit where the
Company may now borrow up to the aggregate collection of receivables in the
prior 120-days as long as the collections in any one month do not decrease by
more than 25% from the prior month.
Under a second line of credit with DVI Business Credit, due October 31, 2000,
the Company may borrow the lesser of 110% of the eligible accounts receivable or
$5,000,000. The credit line is collateralized by approximately 80% of the Tower
division's accounts receivable. Borrowings under this line are repayable
together with interest at an annual rate of the bank's prime rate plus 1.0%. At
April 30, 1999, approximately $3,110,000 was outstanding under this line.
The Company entered into an additional line of credit agreement with DVI
Business Credit, due October 31, 2000, where the Company may borrow up to
$3,500,000 to either (a) pay off the promissory note dated 10/1/94 issued to
Tower Radiology, et. al., or (b) purchase, on the open market, the subordinated
debentures of the Company at a price not to exceed 60% of the face value of such
debentures. Borrowings under this line are repayable monthly, at the rate of
1.4% of the line balance, including principal and interest, at an annual rate
equal to the bank's prime rate plus 1.0%. This line is also collateralized by
the Tower division's accounts receivable. At April 30, 1999, approximately
$3,425,000 was outstanding under this line which was utilized to repurchase bond
debentures and pay off the majority of the Tower Radiology promissory note.
The Company's future payments for debt and equipment under capital lease for the
next five years, assuming lines of credit are paid in the first year and not
renewed, will be approximately $36,155,000, $21,415,000, $17,965,000,
$14,075,000 and $11,560,000, respectively. Interest expense [excluding lines of
credit and bond debenture interest] for the next five years, included in the
above payments, will be approximately $6,320,000, $5,075,000, $3,530,000,
$2,220,000 and $1,140,000, respectively. In addition, the Company has
non-cancelable operating leases for the use of its facilities and certain
medical equipment which will average approximately $3,900,000 in annual payments
over the next five years.

Item 1: Legal Proceedings
On June 10, 1990, the Trustee in that Chapter 11 Proceeding in the Matter of
Robert E. Brennan commenced a legal action entitled Donald F. Conway, Chapter 11
Trustee v. John J. Petillo, Robert T. Caruso, Robert Berkson, Howard G. Berger
and Primedex Health Systems in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of New Jersey bearing case number 98-3287. On or about June 7, 1999,
the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving a settlement of the matter as to
Dr. Berger and Primedex Health Systems. The allegations upon which the matter
was based arose out of the June 1, 1995 purchase by Dr. Berger (the president
and chairman of the Board and largest stockholder of Registrant) of 10,000,000
shares of Registrant from Robert Brennan. The sales price was $1,400,000 ($.14
per share) with Dr. Berger paying $300,000 cash and a $700,000 promissory note
together with an agreement to deliver certain shares of Care Advantage, Inc..
The agreement also provided for a 25% sharing of any increase over $.14 per
share in the public market price of Registrant's stock during the five years
ending June of 2000 and a lesser amount in the four ensuing years. In January
1993, Mr. Brennan loaned $7,500,000 to Registrant pursuant to a secured note due
August 1, 1994. On July 7, 1994, Registrant paid $3,500,000 on said note and
agreed to pay the remaining $4,000,000 in 12 monthly payments. On August 5,
1994, Registrant paid $3,000,000 to Mr. Brennan in consideration of his
agreement to waive any further obligation if he received said sum by August 5,
1994. The Trustee agreed to settle any further claims against Dr. Berger and the
Registrant provided Dr. Berger discharge the remaining $700,000 note by payment
of $481,600 cash plus 8% interest per annum on the $420,000 outstanding
principal balance until paid and Registrant pay $120,000 and deliver 283,334
shares of CareAdvantage, Inc. common stock. Dr. Berger and the Registrant agreed
to such settlement.
An action entitled Gerald E. Dalrymple, M.D. and Gerald E. Dalrymple, M.D., Inc.
v Primedex Health Systems, Inc., Howard Berger, M.D., Diagnostic Imaging
Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Diagnostic Imaging Services, a
California corporation and Diagnostic Health Services, Inc., was filed in the
Los Angeles Superior Court, Case No. SC 047526 on June 3, 1997. The Complaint
alleged that Diagnostic Imaging Services, Inc. ["DIS"] failed to properly pay
plaintiff's fees for performing professional services to which they were
entitled as well as damages for violation of the implied covenant of good faith
and fair dealing, fraud, conversion, breach of fiduciary duty, interference with
existing and prospective business advantage, negligent and intentional
infliction of emotional distress and defamation, and sought damages for an
unspecified amount in excess of $25,000. The Complaint also alleged that by
virtue of the investment by the Company in DIS and the sale of four of the DIS
imaging centers and its ultrasound business to Diagnostic Health Services, Inc.
that DIS had thereby effected either a reorganization, consolidation, merger or
transfer of all or substantially all of its assets to another entity thereby
permitting plaintiffs to convert a warrant for 319,488 shares of DIS's common
stock, issued in connection with the acquisition of Parkside Radiology, to
either $1,000,000 cash or stock with a market value of $1,000,000 in the
Company, at the election of the Company. A partial settlement was reached in
August 1997. Pursuant to the settlement, Dr. Dalrymple assumed ownership of
Parkside Radiology and assumed responsibility for expenses of the facility in
the future. Additionally, DIS sold certain of its equipment and leasehold
improvements to Dr. Dalrymple for approximately $400,000. Plaintiffs' remaining
claims, as well as the DIS cross-claims against Dr. Dalrymple alleging, among
other things, that Dr. Dalrymple pursued a plan to depress Parkside's business,
and therefore its value, thus enabling him to acquire the facility he previously
sold to DIS at a depressed price, remained in dispute pending the trial which
concluded on August 20, 1999, with a jury verdict finding that the Company owes
damages for breach of the radiology services agreement with Dr. Dalrymple;
breach of its fiduciary duty to Dr. Dalrymple; conversion of professional fees
belonging to Dr. Dalrymple; breach of the implied covenant of good faith and
fair dealing in connection with the radiology services agreement; breach of the
implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in connection with plaintiff's
claim on the warrant; and negligent infliction of emotional distress in the
aggregate amount of $1,935,995. Additionally, the jury verdict found that Dr.
Dalrymple had breached his agreement whereby he sold Parkside Radiology to DIS
and that DIS should receive damages of $180,000 (an aggregate recovery against
the Company of $1,755,995). The plaintiffs have advised the Company that they
intend to seek fees, costs and additional damages aggregating as much as an
additional $1,500,000. The Company believes that it has reasonable grounds to
expect that the damages against the Company will be reduced prior to the entry
of a final judgment. The Company will consider an appeal pending the court's
action on motions which both the plaintiff and the Company intend to make in
connection with the jury's decision.
