         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

       The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of
  NovaCare, Inc. (the "Company") are unaudited.  The balance sheet as
  of June 30, 1995 is condensed from the audited balance sheet of the
  Company at that date.  These statements have been prepared in
  accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
  Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the
  Company's consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
  for the year ended June 30, 1995.  Certain information and footnote
  disclosures normally in the financial statements prepared in
  accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
  condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the
  opinion of Company management, the condensed consolidated financial
  statements for the unaudited interim periods presented include all
  adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
  necessary to present a fair statement of the results for such
  interim periods.

       Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended
  December 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results that
  may be expected for a full year or any portion thereof.  Effective
  April 1, 1995, the Company sold its medical rehabilitation hospital
  operations.  Had the sale of the medical rehabilitation hosptial 
  operations taken place on July 1, 1994, pro forma unaudited net 
  revenues for the six months ended December 31, 1994 would have been
  $390,948 and pro forma unaudited income from operations would have been
  $34,946.

2.RESTRUCTURING LIABILITY

       During the first six months of fiscal 1996, the Company continued
  to implement the productivity and cost reduction program initiated in
  fiscal 1995.  This program, consisting of closing certain contract
  services offices, orthotic and prosthetic branches and outpatient
  centers in selected markets, and the consolidation of certain finance
  and other administrative functions, is in progress, and is expected to
  be substantially complete by the end of the fiscal year.

       As of December 31, 1995, the Company had completed the employee
  reduction portion of the program by notifying 660 employees of their
  termination.  There are no further employee terminations expected
  pursuant to this program.  The Company anticipates that lease 
  termination costs will be in excess of those contemplated in the
  charge taken in fiscal 1995 to close certain contract services offices.
  These additional costs will be offset by lower than anticipated 
  severance costs.  Reserves for restructuring activities at December 31,
  1995 total $2,795 for employee severance costs and $5,593 for lease
  termination and other costs.

                                                  ===========    ===========

    The Company has in place a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of
  lenders providing for a total commitment of up to $175,000, upon which no
  amounts are currently drawn.  The Company anticipates finalization of the
  amendments to the revolving credit facility by the end of the third quarter
  of fiscal 1996.  

4.CONTINGENCIES

    The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise
  in the ordinary course of its business.  In the opinion of
  management, the amount of ultimate liability, if any, with respect
  to these actions will not have a materially adverse affect on the
  financial position or results of operations of the Company.

    Certain purchase agreements require additional payments if
  specific financial targets and non-financial conditions are met.
  Aggregate contingent payments in connection with these acquisitions
  at December 31, 1995 of approximately $28,426 in cash and 742 shares
  of common stock have not been included in the initial determination
  of cost of the businesses acquired since the amount of such
  contingent consideration, if any, is not presently determinable.
  For the six months ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994,
  the Company paid $11,809 and $6,553 in cash, respectively, and
  issued 334 and 284 shares, respectively, of common stock in
  connection with businesses acquired in prior years.

     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                     AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994

  Net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 1995 decreased
from the prior year by $31.2 million or 13.5% to $201.0 million and
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and
minority interest ("EBITDA") decreased by $5.9 million or 20.3% to
$23.0 million.

  The principal reason for the decrease in net revenues for the three months 
ended December 31, 1995 compared with the same period in the prior year was
the inclusion of net revenues in the three months ended December 31, 1994
of $36.2 million from the medical rehabilitation hospital operations, which
were sold effective April 1, 1995.  This decrease coupled with a decrease
in net revenues per visit of 2.4% in outpatient rehabilitation was offset by
(i) a 1.0% increase in contract therapy services billable hours combined 
with a 1.8% increase in net revenue per billable hour, and (ii) a 6.3% 
increase in net revenue per patient in the orthotic and prosthetic business
resulting from increased sales of higher priced prosthetic devices.  The 
increase in contract therapy services billable hours results from an 
increase in therapist productivity offset by a 2.6% decrease in the number 
of therapists.  The decrease in outpatient rehabilitation net revenues per 
visit reflects increased pricing pressure, a trend that is expected to 
continue.

  The decrease in EBITDA principally resulted from the sale of the
medical rehabilitation hospital operations ($6.0 million in the second 
quarter of fiscal 1995).

  Depreciation and amortization for the three months ended December 31,
1995 increased by $337,000 as compared with the prior year, primarily
due to the full-year effect of acquisitions made during fiscal 1995 and
the placing in service of certain internally-developed software offset by
the inclusion in the three months ended December 31, 1994 of depreciation
related to the medical rehabilitation hospital operations.

  Interest expense, net of investment income, decreased $4.0 million
compared with the prior period principally as a result of the payoff of
amounts borrowed under the Company's credit facility and increased cash 
as a result of the medical rehabilitation hospital division sale.

  Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income increased to
43.0% for the three months ended December 31, 1995 from 41.5% for the
previous year.  The increase in the rate principally resulted from the
impact of non-deductible goodwill on lower income subject to income tax
and from higher income subject to income taxes for state tax purposes.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1995 AND 1994

  Net revenues for the six months ended December 31, 1995 decreased
from the prior year by $63.9 million or 13.8% to $399.1 million and
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and
minority interest ("EBITDA") decreased by $12.9 million or 21.8% to
$46.2 million.

  The principal reason for the decrease in net revenues for the six months
ended December 31, 1995 compared with the same period in the prior year
was the inclusion of net revenues in the six months ended December 31, 1994
of $72.0 million from the medical rehabilitation hospital operations, which
were sold effective April 1, 1995.  This decrease was offset by (i) a 1.6% 
increase in contract therapy services billable hours combined with a 1.0%
increase in net revenue per billable hour, (ii) a 11.9% increase in 
outpatient rehabilitation visits, resulting primarily from the full effect 
of 25 acquisitions in fiscal 1995, offset by a 3.0% decrease in net 
revenue per visit, and (iii) a 6.3% increase in orthotic and prosthetic 
net revenue per patient resulting from increased sales of higher priced 
prosthetic devices.  The slight increase in contract therapy services 
billable hours results from an increase in therapist productivity offset 
somewhat by a decrease of approximately 1.0% in the number of therapists.  
The decrease in outpatient rehabilitation net revenues per visit reflects 
increased pricing pressure, a trend that is expected to continue.

  The decrease in EBITDA principally resulted from the sale of the
medical rehabilitation hospital operations ($12.2 million in the first 
six months of fiscal 1995).

  Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended December 31,
1995 increased by $858,000 as compared with the prior year, primarily
due to the full-year effect of acquisitions made during fiscal 1995 and
the placing in service of certain internally-developed software offset by
the inclusion in the six months ended December 31, 1994 of depreciation
related to the medical rehabilitation hospital operations.

  Interest expense, net of investment income, decreased $7.3 million
compared with the prior period principally as a result of the payoff of
amounts borrowed under the Company's credit facility and increased cash 
as a result of the medical rehabilitation hospital division sale.

  Income tax expense as a percentage of pre-tax income increased to 43.0%
for the six months ended December 31, 1995 from 40.1% for the previous
year.  The increase in the rate principally resulted from the impact of 
non-deductible goodwill on lower income subject to income tax and from
higher income subject to income taxes for state tax purposes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

  At December 31, 1995, the Company's working capital decreased $24.9
million to $230.2 million compared with $255.1 million at June 30,
1995.  The decrease in working capital principally resulted from the
purchase of approximately 3.4 million shares of the Company's stock for
$24.9 million.

  The Company used $14.5 million of cash for capital expenditures
during the first six months of fiscal 1996 compared with $11.7 million
in the first six months of fiscal 1995.  Capital expenditures generally
relate to the costs incurred in connection with internally-developed
software and normal leasehold renovations and equipment replacement.
In the first six months of fiscal 1996, the Company paid $2.0 million
for acquisitions of four outpatient rehabilitation and three orthotic
and prosthetic companies. The Company also paid $11.8 million for
earnout arrangements relating to previous acquisitions.

  In connection with the sale of the hospital division, the Company is
in the process of amending the credit facility, upon which no amounts
are currently drawn, to reflect the sale of the medical rehabilitation
hospital operations and other matters.  At December 31, 1995, commitment 
availability had been reduced by $560,000 for issued letters of credit.

  The Company believes that the cash flows generated by the Company's
operations, together with its existing cash and availability of credit
under the credit facility, will be sufficient to meet the Company's
short and long-term cash needs.
