PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Financial Statements

                INTRODUCTION - CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, which were of a normal recurring nature, necessary to present
fairly the consolidated financial position and results of operations and cash
flows for the periods presented have been included. These consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Retirement Care
Associates, Inc. (the "Company") for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996, File
No. 1-14114.

The Company has restated its financial information for periods commencing June
30, 1996 through the nine months ended March 31, 1997, as reflected in
amendments to the Company's Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the quarters
ended September 30, 1996, December 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997. Adjustments and
reclassifications were necessary to correct entries relating to (i) receivables
due from third-party payors, (ii) the Company's inventory for such periods,
(iii) provisions for doubtful accounts, (iv) provisions for contractual
allowances for third-party payors, (v) provisions for accrued liabilities, and
(vi) pre-recorded operating leases (collectively, "Restated Entries").

To show the impact of the Restated Entries with respect to previously reported
amounts for each period restated, the Company has provided a description of the
Restated Entries and a reconciliation of historical results for each period as
previously reported in the filed quarterly report to restated results.

Certain statements in this Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements" made
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Factors which may cause the Company's actual results in future
periods to differ materially from forecast results include, but are not limited
to: general economic and business conditions, both nationally and in the regions
in which the Company operates; industry capacity; demographic changes; existing
government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government
regulations; legislative proposals for reform; the ability to enter into lease
and management contracts and arrangements on acceptable terms; changes in
Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement levels; liability and other claims asserted
against the Company; competition; changes in business strategy or development
plans; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the significant
indebtedness of the Company; and the availability and terms of capital to fund
the expansion of the Company's business, including the acquisition of additional
facilities.

The financial information included in this report has been prepared by the
Company, without audit, and should not be relied upon to the same extent as
audited financial statements.

NOTE 7:  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of
business. In addition, the Company is in dispute with the Internal Revenue
Service ("IRS") concerning the application of certain income and payroll tax
liabilities and payments. The IRS contends that the Company is delinquent in the
payment of certain taxes and has charged penalties and interest in connection
with the alleged underpayments. The Company contends that the IRS has misapplied
payments between income and payroll taxes and between the Company and its
affiliates. The Company has estimated in the accompanying financial statements
amounts for ultimate settlement of this dispute, and has recorded an accrual of
$600,000, which is based upon the best available information after consulting

with the Company's advisors concerning this matter. Further, the Company has
filed lawsuits against the IRS related to this matter. In the opinion of
management, the ultimate resolution of pending legal proceedings and the IRS
dispute will not have a material effect on the Company's financial positions or
results of operations.

NOTE 8:  FACILITY ACQUISITIONS

During the quarter ended December 31, 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 shareholders'
equity of the Company by $3,000,000.
    

NOTE 9:  OTHER TRANSACTIONS

   
On August 6, 1996, Contour acquired all of the outstanding stock of Atlantic
Medical Supply Company, Inc. ("Atlantic"), 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. The promissory notes bear interest
at 7% per annum and were due in full on January 10, 1997. In the event of a
default in the payment of the promissory notes, they were convertible into
shares of Common Stock of the Company. On January 10, 1997, Contour retired all
outstanding notes due to sellers of Atlantic in the aggregate principal amount
of $10,850,000, along with accrued interest. The retirement of these notes was
funded by a loan of $9,750,000 from the Company, with the balance funded from
Contour's existing line of credit with Barnett Bank. The loan from the Company
was evidenced by a convertible promissory note bearing interest at 9% per annum
and payable upon demand. This note was convertible into 1,950,000 shares of
Contour's common stock, and on January 10, 1997, the Company exercised this
conversion right.

$18,814,605 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 represented 59% of patient
service revenue, as compared to $36,301,053 or 68% of patient service revenue
during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. This increase is attributed to the
Company acquiring skilled nursing facilities which require more skilled care and
to delays in Medicaid rate increases discussed in the comparison of the nine
month periods ended March 31 below.

Medical supply revenue increased from $2,100,600 during the quarter ended March
31, 1996, to $11,815,392 during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. These
revenues, which are revenues of Contour, increased primarily as a result of two
acquisitions made by Contour. Contour acquired AmeriDyne Corporation
("AmeriDyne") effective March 1, 1997, and Atlantic effective July 1, 1996. Cost
of medical supplies sold as a percentage of medical supply revenue decreased to
approximately 67.6% during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, 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 decreased from $1,030,882 in the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to
$632,580 in the quarter ended March 31, 1997, due to the number of facilities
which the Company manages. As of March 31, 1996, the Company was managing 24
facilities, and as of March 31, 1997, the Company was managing 11 facilities.
The Company has leased or purchased 13 facilities it managed at March 31, 1996.
Management anticipates that the number of facilities only managed by the company
will continue to decline as a result of 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.

   
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1997
were $10,026,455, representing 15% of total revenues, as compared to $6,848,798,
representing 19% of total revenues, for the three months ended March 31, 1996.
This increase in the dollar amount is due to the general and administrative
expenses related to operating the additional facilities owned or leased by the
Company and the acquisition by Contour of Atlantic and AmeriDyne.

For the quarter ended March 31, 1997, the Company incurred expense for income
taxes of $420,000, which represents an effective tax rate of 24%, as compared to
expenses for income taxes of $1,106,272, which represents an effective tax rate
of 39%, for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
    

During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company recorded an
extraordinary charge of $490,000, net of taxes of $300,000. The gross
extraordinary charge consists of $790,000 of charges associated with the early
extinguishment of approximately $9.2 million of long term debt.

   
The net income of $1,293,737 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997, decreased
from the net income of $1,736,580 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996. The
decrease of net income for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 is a result of the
increase in the cost of patient services as described above.

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 terms. However, each such agreement is
subject to termination on 60 days notice after the end of the third year of each
such 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.
    

NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1997 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31,
1996

The Company's total revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, were
$182,180,929 compared to $95,492,767 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.

   
Due to the increased number of facilities owned or leased by the Company,
patient service revenue increased from $86,182,000 for the nine months ended
March 31, 1996, to $142,969,704 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. The
Company was operating 86 facilities in the nine months ended March 31, 1997
compared to 54 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The cost of patient
services in the amount of $101,622,310 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997,
represented 71% of patient service revenue, as compared to $52,466,995 or 61% of
patient service revenue during the nine months ended March 31, 1996. This
increase is attributed to the Company acquiring skilled nursing facilities which
require more skilled care and to delays in Medicaid rate increases discussed
below.

Medical supply revenues increased from $5,294,915 during the quarter ended March
31, 1996, to $34,592,701 during the quarter ended March 31, 1997. These
revenues, which are revenues of Contour, a majority-owned subsidiary, increased
primarily as a result of two acquisitions made by Contour. Contour acquired
AmeriDyne effective March 1, 1996, and Atlantic effective July 1, 1996. Cost of
medical supplies sold as a percentage of medical supply revenue decreased to
approximately 67.5% during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, 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 decreased from $2,834,677 in the nine months ended March 31,
1996 to $2,125,201 in the nine months ended March 31, 1997 because the Company
purchased or leased 13 facilities it managed at March 31, 1996. As of March 31,
1996, the Company was managing 24 facilities, and as of March 31, 1997 the
Company was managing 11 facilities.

   
General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended March 31, 1997
were $32,630,996, representing 18% of total revenues, as compared to
$15,619,316, representing 16% of total revenues, for the nine months ended March
31, 1996. This increase is due to the general and administrative expenses
related to operating the additional facilities owned or leased by the Company,
and the acquisition by Contour of Atlantic Medical.

For the nine months ended March 31, 1997, the Company received an income tax
benefit of $40,000 which represents an effective tax benefit of 25%, as compared
to expenses for income taxes of $3,854,135 which represents an effective rate of
39% for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.

The net loss of $607,895 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, compares to
net income of $6,115,311 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996. The net loss
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997, is a result of (1) an extraordinary
charge relating to a restructuring of debt, and (2) the increase in the cost of
patient services as described above, and the 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 August 16, 1996, 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. The delays in Medicaid rate increases are not related to the
extraordinary charge.
    

During the quarter ended December 31, 1996, the Company recorded an
extraordinary charge of $490,000, net of taxes of $300,000. The gross
extraordinary charge consists of $790,000 of charges associated with the early
extinguishment of approximately $9.2 million of long term debt.

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 terms, however, they are all subject to
termination on 60 days notice, 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 services revenue,
continue in the future.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   
At March 31, 1997, the Company had a deficit of $1,230,244 in working capital
compared to a deficit of $1,496,160 at June 30, 1996.

During the nine months ended March 31, 1997, cash used by operating activities
was $14,635,461 as compared to $8,288,044 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
The $6,347,417 increase was primarily due to the increase in accounts receivable
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 of $21,314,820. These increases in
non-cash assets were partially offset by increases in accounts payable and
accrued expense of $13,158,812.

Cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 1997
was 32,518,396. The expenditures related to purchases of equipment, securities,
investments in subsidiaries and advances to affiliates.

Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended March 31,
1997 consisted of $37,196,676 in long term loans and $9,340,000 in issuance of
preferred stock. Cash used in financing activities consisted of $1,644,579 in
payments of long term debt and the purchase and retirement of common stock of
3,800,403.
    

The Company has no commitments to make material capital expenditures.

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 does not 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 health care facilities.
