NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the
Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to
make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial
statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1995, File No 0-22168.
In the opinion of management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited
consolidated financial statements contain all necessary adjustments to present
fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows for the
periods reported. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.
The Financial Accounting Standard Board has adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and
Equity Securities" (SFAS No. 115). The Company has adopted this standard in
fiscal 1995. In management's opinion, adopting SFAS No. 115 did not materially
affect the Company's financial statements for the three months ended December
31, 1995.
Net income per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding during each year retroactively
adjusted to give effect to the stock dividend discussed in Note 8. Net income is
reduced for the 10% cumulative preferred dividend on the Series AA preferred
stock.
NOTE 2. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND COST REIMBURSEMENTS
Accounts receivable and operating revenue include net amounts reimbursed by
Medicaid under the provisions of cost reimbursement formulas in effect. The
Company operates under a prospective payment system with Medicare, under which
annual rates are assigned based on estimated reimbursements. Differences between
estimated provisions and final settlement are reflected as adjustments to future
rates.

NOTE 6: FACILITY ACQUISITIONS
During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Company entered into a series
of transactions with Winter Haven, Gordon Jensen Health Care Association, Inc.
("Gordon Jensen"), National Assistance Bureau, Inc. ("NAB"), Southeastern
Cottages, Inc. ("Southeastern"), Chamber Health Care Society, Inc. ("Chamber"),
and Senior Care, Inc. ("Senior"); all are entities which principal shareholders
of the Company either own or control. The result of the transactions was to
eliminate all notes receivable and advances due to the Company from affiliates.
The following is a summary of the transactions:
On September 30, 1996, Winter Haven sold to the Company two retirement
facilities for their fair value, based on independent appraisal, totaling
$19,200,000. The facilities were acquired by the Company subject to bond debt of
$7,670,000, resulting in debt due to Winter Haven from the Company of
$11,530,000. As part of the sales agreement, the Company and Winter Haven agreed
that the debt of $11,530,000 would be applied to eliminate the receivable,
totaling $11,214,320, due to the Company by Winter Haven.
On September 27, 1996, Gordon Jensen contributed to the treasury of the Company
400,000 shares of stock in the Company which had a fair market value of
$3,000,000. This transaction results in the elimination of the debt, totaling
$2,982,000, due to the Company by Gordon Jensen and a reduction of stockholders'
equity of the Company by $3,000,000.

NOTE 6: FACILITY ACQUISITIONS (Continued)
On August 6, 1996, Contour acquired all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic
Medical Supply Company, Inc. ("Atlantic Medical"), a distributor of disposable
medical supplies and a provider of third-party billing services to the nursing
home and home health care markets. The acquisition was made retroactively to
July 1, 1996. Contour paid $1.4 million in cash and $10.5 million in promissory
notes for all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic Medical. The promissory notes
bear interest at 7% per annum and are due in full on January 10, 1997. In the
event of a default in the payment of the promissory notes, they are convertible
into shares of common stock of RCA.
During the period from September 27 through October 2, 1996, the Company sold
1,000,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock in an offering to
foreign investors at $10.00 per share. Holders of the Series F Preferred Stock
have no voting rights except as required by law, and have liquidation preference
of $10.00 per share plus 4% per amount from the date of issuance. The shares of
Series F Preferred Stock are convertible into shares of common stock at a
conversion price of the lesser of (a) $7.665625, or (b) 85% of the average
closing bid price for the five trading days prior to the date of conversion. The
maximum number of shares of common stock which can be issued upon conversion of
the Series F Preferred Stock is 2,588,000. At the time of conversion, the holder
is also entitled to additional shares equal to $10.00 per share of Series F
Preferred Stock converted multiplied by 8% per annum from the date of issuance
divided by the applicable conversion price. Each holder of the Series F
Preferred Stock has the option to convert up to one-third of such holder's
shares at any time from and after the 60th day following the date of issuance,
up to an additional one-third of the shares from and after the 90th day
following the date of issuance, and all remaining shares may be converted from
and after the 120th day following the date of issuance.
For purposes of computing earnings per share, the Series F Preferred Stock has
been determined to be a common stock equivalent. Accordingly, weighted average
shares outstanding includes the common shares issuable upon conversion of these
shares after consideration of accumulated dividends.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
FINANCIAL CONDITION
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 1995.
The Company's total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996, were
$55,139,631 compared to $28,640,177 for the three months ended September 30,
1995. Due to the increased number of facilities owned or leased by the Company,
patient service revenue increased from $25,835,329 for the quarter ended
September 30, 1995, to $41,984,567 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The
Company was operating 75 facilities for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
compared to 42 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The cost of patient
services in the amount of $30,480,566 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996,
represented 72% patient service revenue, as compared to $16,044,110 or 62% of
patient service revenue during the quarter ended September 30, 1995. This
increase is attributed to the Company acquiring skilled nursing facilities which
have higher personnel costs and to the delays in Medicaid rate increases
discussed below.
Medical supply revenue increased from $1,589,073 during the quarter ended
September 30, 1995, to $11,224,782 during the quarter ended September 30, 1996.
These revenues, which are revenues of Contour Medical, Inc. ("Contour"), a
majority-owned subsidiary, increased primarily as a result of two acquisitions
made by Contour. Contour acquired AmeriDyne Corporation ("AmeriDyne") effective
March 1, 1996, and Atlantic Medical Supply Company, Inc. ("Atlantic") effective
July 1, 1996. Cost of medical supplies sold as a percentage of medical supply
revenue decreased to approximately 66.5% during the quarter ended September 30,
1996, as compared to approximately 100% of such revenue during the same period
last year. The reduced percentage is primarily a result of higher gross profit
margins on the products sold by AmeriDyne and Atlantic.
Management fees increased from $907,879 in the quarter ended September 30, 1995
to $934,046 in the quarter ended September 30, 1996. As of September 30, 1995,
the Company was managing 26 facilities, and as of September 30, 1996, the
Company was only managing 20 facilities. Although the number of managed
facilities declined, revenues increased slightly as a result of increased
management fees charged by the Company. The reduced number of facilities managed
by the Company is due to the fact that the Company has acquired, by lease or
purchase, a number of facilities which it previously only managed. Management
anticipates that the number of facilities only managed by the Company will
continue to decline as a result of the acquisition of such facilities by the
Company.
Owning or leasing a facility is distinctly different from managing a facility
with respect to operating results and cash flows. For an owned or leased
facility, the entire revenue/expense stream of the facility is recorded on the
Company's income statement. In the case of a management agreement, only the
management fee is recorded. The expenses associated with management revenue are
somewhat indirect as the infrastructure is already in place to manage the
facility. Therefore, the profitability of managing a facility appears more
lucrative on a margin basis than that of an owned/leased facility. However, the
risk of managing a facility is that the contract generally can be canceled on a
relatively short notice, which results in loss of all revenue attributable to
the contract. Furthermore, with an owned or leased property the Company benefits
from the increase in value of the facility as its performance increases. With a
management contract, the owner of the facility maintains the equity value. From
a cash flow standpoint, a management contract is more lucrative because the
Company does not have to support the ongoing operating cash flow of the
facility.
-11-
<PAGE> 12
Most of the revenue from the management services division of the Company's
business is received pursuant to management agreements with entities controlled
by Messrs. Brogdon and Lane, two of the Company's officers and directors. These
management agreements have five year terns, however, they are subject to
termination on 60 days notice, after the end of the third year of the Agreement
with or without cause by either the Company or the owners. Therefore, Messrs.
Brogdon and Lane have full control over whether or not these management
agreements, and thus the management service revenue, continue in the future.
Other operating revenue increased from $307,896 during the quarter ended
September 30, 1995, to $996,236 during the quarter ended September 30, 1996. The
increase was primarily a result of one-time referral fees of $300,000 received
from a building contractor, and approximately $180,000 in interest income.
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30,
1996 were $9,606,489 representing 17% of total revenues, as compared to
$4,455,581 representing 16% of total revenues, for the three months ended
September 30, 1995. The increase in the dollar amount is primarily due to the
general and administrative expenses related to operating the additional
facilities owned or leased by the Company. The increased percentage is
attributed to higher payroll costs of general and administrative personnel which
took effect at the beginning of the fiscal year.
Interest expense rose from $928,852 during the quarter ended September 30, 1995,
to $2,375,601 during the quarter ended September 30, 1996, as a result of the
increased amount of debt carried by the Company as a result of acquisitions made
over the last twelve months. At September 30, 1995, the Company had
approximately $47 million in long-term debt, as compared to approximately $137
million in long-term debt at September 30, 1996.
For the quarter ended September 30, 1996, the Company incurred expense for
income taxes of $491,210 which represents an effective tax rate of 39%, as
compared to expenses for income taxes of $1,285,265 which represents an
effective tax rate of 39% for the quarter ended September 30, 1995.
The net income of $801,447 for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, is lower
than the net income of $2,058,720 for the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The
reduced net income for the quarter ended September 30, 1996, is primarily a
result of delays in annual Medicaid rate increases, which are usually in effect
on July 1 of each year. This year the rate increases in Georgia were delayed
until mid-August, and the rate increases in Tennessee were delayed until
November 1, 1996. Most of the long-term care facilities operated by the Company
are located in these two states.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 30, 1996, the Company had $2,777,737 in working capital compared to
$2,925,302 at June 30, 1996.
During the quarter ended September 30, 1996, cash used by operating activities
was $(6,532,048) as compared to $1,250,797 provided by operating activities
during the quarter ended September 30, 1995. The cash used during the current
period was primarily a result of an increase in accounts receivable of
$8,837,558, and an increase in inventory of $5,112,633. These increases are
partially a result of Contour's acquisition of Atlantic effective July 1, 1996.
The increases in non-cash assets were partially offset by increases in accounts
payable and accrued expense of $6,031,801.
-12-
<PAGE> 13
Cash flows used in investing activities during the quarter ended September 30,
1996, totaled $(9,477,384) as compared to $(10,497,990) during the quarter ended
September 30, 1995. During the current period, the Company expended $22,178,364
on the purchase of property and equipment, primarily through acquisitions, and
incurred $2,562,121 in deferred lease costs. These expenditures were partially
offset by repayments of advances from affiliates of $14,440,766.
Cash provided by financing activities during the quarter ended September 30,
1996, totaled $19,035,246 as compared to $6,889,296 during the same period last
year. During the current period the Company received $6,598,179 from the sale of
preferred stock and the placement of $17,547,656 in long-term debt. These were
partially offset by the purchase and retirement of common stock in the amount of
$3,149,713, payments on long-term debt of $444,250, a reduction of line of
credit borrowings of $1,456,535 and payment of $60,000 in dividends on preferred
stock.
On September 30, 1994, the Company purchased a majority of the stock of Contour
Medical, Inc. in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock and preferred
stock. The Company is obligated to redeem the preferred stock issued in the
transaction over the five years for $3,000,000 in cash. $600,000 was paid on
October 11, 1996 pursuant to this obligation. Management intends to fund future
redemptions from cash flow generated from operations.
The Company believes that its long-term liquidity needs will generally be met by
income from operations. If necessary, the Company believes that it can obtain an
extension of its current line of credit and/or other lines of credit from
commercial sources. Except as described above, the Company is not aware of any
trends, demands, commitments or understandings that would impact its liquidity.
The Company maintains various lines of credit with interest rates ranging from
prime plus .25% to prime plus 1.25%. At September 30, 1996, the Company had
approximately $3,500,000 in unused credit available under such lines.
On August 6, 1996, Contour Medical, Inc. ("Contour"), a majority-owned
subsidiary, acquired all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic Medical Supply
Company, Inc. ("Atlantic"), a distributor of disposable medical supplies and
provider of third-party billing services to the nursing home and home health
care markets. The acquisition was made effective retroactively to July 1, 1996.
Contour paid $1,400,000 in cash and promissory notes totaling $10,500,000 for
the stock of Atlantic, and subsequently paid an additional $50,000 in cash and
issued a promissory note for $350,000 to acquire a minority interest in a
subsidiary of Atlantic Medical Supply, Inc. The promissory notes bear interest
at 7% per annum and are due in full on January 10, 1997. In the event of a
default in the payment of the promissory notes, they are convertible into shares
of common stock of the Company (Retirement Care Associates, Inc.) The cash for
this transaction came from a $5 million debenture placement by Contour that was
completed on July 12, 1996. Contour intends to pay the promissory notes from the
proceeds of an offering of securities to be conducted by Contour. However, if
Contour is unable to pay these promissory notes, a default could occur and the
holders could exercise their conversion rights. In such event the Company could
be required to issue shares of its Common Stock equal to $10,850,000 based on a
conversion price of 85% of the average daily closing price on the New York Stock
Exchange for the five consecutive trading days prior to the conversion date. In
such event, the Company has agreed to register such shares for resale under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

IMPACT OF PENDING FEDERAL HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION
Management is uncertain what the financial impact will be of the pending federal
health care reform package since the legislation has not been finalized.
However, based on information which has been released to the public thus far,
management doesn't believe that there will be cuts in reimbursements paid to
nursing homes.
Legislative and regulatory action at the state and federal level, has resulted
in continuing changes in the Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement programs. The
changes have limited payment increases under those programs. Also, the timing of
payments made under Medicare and Medicaid programs are subject to regulatory
action and governmental budgetary constraints. Within the statutory framework of
the Medicare and Medicaid programs, there are substantial areas subject to
administrative rulings and interpretations which may further affect payments
made under these programs. Further, the federal and state governments may reduce
the funds available under those programs in the future or require more stringent
utilization and quality review of healthcare facilities.
