                    UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
     The following unaudited pro forma combining statements of income give
effect to the merger involving Capstone Pharmacy Services, Inc. and Pharmacy
Corporation of America (the "Merger"), a proposed private offering of $300
million of senior subordinated notes (the "Offering") and all acquisitions other
than certain insignificant acquisitions as though they occurred on January 1,
1997. This pro forma information has been prepared utilizing the audited
historical consolidated financial statements of PharMerica for the year ended
December 31, 1997, and the unaudited historical consolidated financial
statements of Capstone for the eleven months ended December 31, 1997. The Merger
was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and was treated as a
reverse merger/acquisition of Capstone by PCA for accounting and financial
reporting purposes. Therefore, this pro forma information reflects the
adjustment of Capstone's assets and liabilities to their fair values in
accordance with the purchase method of accounting. As a result of this
treatment, the historical financial statements of PharMerica are those of PCA
rather than those of Capstone. This information should be read in conjunction
with the historical consolidated financial statements and notes thereto that
appear elsewhere herein. The pro forma financial data are provided for
comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results
which would have occurred had the Merger, the Offering and the described
acquisitions been consummated on January 1, 1997, nor are they necessarily
indicative of future results.

               NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA STATEMENTS OF INCOME
 
 (1) Represents Capstone's actual results of operations for the eleven months
     ended November 30, 1997. The remaining month of Capstone's actual results
     is included as part of PharMerica's year end results.
 
 (2) Represents the pro forma effects of all material acquisitions made by
     Capstone and PCA, other than certain insignificant acquisitions, since
     January 1, 1997 as though they occurred on January 1, 1997. The financial
     statements underlying a significant number of these acquisitions were not
     audited or reviewed by independent public accountants, and, therefore, the
     information included herein is generally based on internally prepared
     financial statements by the selling entity. The pro forma results do not
     reflect any anticipated operating efficiencies or synergies and are not
     necessarily indicative of actual results which might have occurred had the
     operations and management teams of the Company and the acquired companies
     been combined in prior years.
 
 (3) Represents the pro forma effects of the Merger and the Offering as though
     they occurred on January 1, 1997.
 
 (4) Represents the elimination of management fees paid by the Company to
     Beverly which will not continue post-Merger.
 
 (5) Represents amortization associated with the excess of purchase price over
     the estimated fair value of net assets acquired in the Merger calculated on
     a straight line basis over 40 years.
 
 (6) Represents elimination of Merger costs recognized in the operations of
     Capstone during the period through the date of Merger and restructuring
     charges and impairments of long-lived assets directly related to the Merger
     recognized in the operations of the Company during the year ended December
     31, 1997.
 
 (7) Represents interest expense on $275.0 million of borrowings under the Bank
     Credit Facility used to partially repay PCA's intercompany balance to
     Beverly at an effective interest rate of 6.5% plus the incremental interest
     expense incurred as a result of the Offering (and use of the proceeds
     thereof) at an assumed rate of 8.5%. If the interest rate on the notes
     related to the Offering were to increase by  1/2%, pro forma interest 
     expense would increase by approximately $1.5 million for both of the years
     ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1997.
 
 (8) Represents the tax effect on the acquisition and pro forma adjustments,
     using an incremental tax rate of 40%, after affecting for permanent
     differences.
 
 (9) EBITDA is defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes,
     depreciation and amortization and non-recurring charges. The EBITDA
     calculation does not include any anticipated synergies from the Merger.
     EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined by
     generally accepted accounting principles and should not be used as an
     alternative to net income as an indicator of operating performance or to
     cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
