                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

                                  THE COMPANY

    Horizon  Healthcare Corporation,  a Delaware  corporation ("Horizon"  or the
"Company"), was organized in 1986 and is a leading provider of specialty  health
care services and long-term care principally in the Midwest, Southwest, East and
Northeast  regions of  the United  States. At May  31, 1994,  the Company owned,
leased or  managed  109 long-term  care  and specialty  health  care  facilities
containing  12,251 beds in 18 states.  References herein to numbers of specialty
health care  facilities  include those  located  in discrete  areas  within  the
physical structure of the Company's long-term care facilities.

    The  Company's  long-term  care  facilities  provide  routine  basic patient
services to geriatric and other patients with respect to daily living activities
and general medical  needs. Such  basic patient services  include daily  dietary
services,  recreational  activities, social  services, housekeeping  and laundry
services, pharmaceutical  and  medical  supplies and  24  hour-a-day  access  to
registered  nurses, licensed practical nurses and related services prescribed by
the patient's physician.

    The specialty health care services provided by the Company include  subacute
care,  rehabilitation therapies (occupational, speech and physical therapies and
treatment  of  traumatic  head  injury  and  other  neurological   impairments),
institutional   pharmacy  services,   Alzheimer's  care,   non-invasive  medical
diagnostic testing services, sleep  diagnostic services and clinical  laboratory
services.   The   Company's  subacute   care   services  include   high  acuity,
multidisciplinary, complex medical  care programs. Subacute  care services  also
include  dedicated  programs  for  ventilator  care,  wound  management, general
rehabilitation, head trauma/coma stimulation and infusion therapy. Subacute care
services are provided  through the  Company's specialty  hospitals and  subacute
care  units. The  Company provides  Alzheimer's care  through 24  units with 700
beds. The  Company provides  institutional  pharmacy services  to  approximately
29,000  beds.  The  Company  provides  non-invasive  medical  diagnostic testing
services such  as  echocardiography,  peripheral venous  and  arterial  imaging,
holter monitoring and doppler scanning by way of mobile units and fixed location
operations  (generally in acute care hospitals)  through a network of physicians
and surgeons,  and  also  provides  sleep  diagnostic  services.  The  Company's
clinical  laboratory  provides  body  fluid  testing  to  assist  in  detecting,
diagnosing and monitoring diseases in  the subacute and long-term care  settings
and  currently provides services to approximately  5,875 beds, with contracts in
place to serve a  total of approximately  15,000 beds by the  end of the  fourth
quarter  of fiscal 1995. The Company's  specialty health care services typically
yield higher  per  bed  charges  and  higher  profit  margins  than  traditional
long-term care services.

THE LONG-TERM CARE INDUSTRY

    The  long-term  care  industry  encompasses a  broad  range  of  health care
services for patients with medically complex needs who can be cared for  outside
of  acute care  hospitals. The  Company believes that  it is  well positioned to
capitalize  on  favorable  industry  trends  including  increasing  demand   for
long-term  care and subacute care services, limited supply of new long-term care
beds and consolidation within the industry.

    COST CONTAINMENT IMPACT.  In response to rapidly rising costs,  governmental
and  private pay sources have adopted  cost containment measures which encourage
reduced length of stays in hospitals. These third party payors have  implemented
strong   case  management  and  utilization   review  procedures.  In  addition,
traditional private insurers have begun to limit reimbursement to  predetermined
"reasonable   charges,"  while   managed  care  organizations   such  as  health
maintenance organizations and preferred provider organizations are attempting to
limit hospitalization costs by monitoring and reducing hospital utilization  and
by negotiating discounted or capitated rates for hospital services. As a result,
average  hospital stays have been shortened, with many patients being discharged
despite a continuing need for specialty health care services or nursing care.

                                       1
<PAGE>
    Long-term care facilities such as those operated by the Company are able  to
provide   many  of  these   specialty  health  care   and  nursing  services  at
significantly lower  costs than  acute  care hospitals,  due to  long-term  care
facilities'  lower  capital  costs,  overhead  and  salary  levels.  The Company
believes that these factors tend to increase the demand for services provided by
long-term care facilities,  including specialty health  care services.  Hospital
discharge  personnel,  physicians,  managed  care  organizations  and  insurance
companies are increasingly referring patients to facilities providing  specialty
health  care services  which are viewed  as cost effective  and appropriate care
alternatives.

    ADVANCES IN TECHNOLOGY.  Advances  in medical technology have increased  the
life  expectancy of a  growing number of  patients who require  a high degree of
care  traditionally  not  available  outside  acute  care  hospitals.  For  such
patients, home health care is not a viable alternative because of the complexity
of  medical services and  equipment required. As a  result, the Company believes
that there is an increasing need for long-term care facilities which provide  24
hour-a-day  supervision and  specialty care at  a significantly  lower cost than
traditional acute care and rehabilitation hospitals.

    AGING POPULATION.  According to the U.S. Bureau of the Census, approximately
1.4% of people 65-74 years of age received care in long-term care facilities  in
1990,  while 6.1% of people 75-84  years of age and 24.5%  of people over age 85
received such  care. The  U.S. Bureau  of  the Census  estimates that  the  U.S.
population  over age 75 will increase from  approximately 13 million, or 5.2% of
the population, in 1990 to approximately  17 million, or 6.1% of the  population
by  the year  2000. In particular,  the segment  of the U.S.  population over 85
years of age, which comprises 45%-50% of residents at long-term care  facilities
nationwide,  is projected  to increase  by more  than 40%,  from approximately 3
million, or 1.2% of the population, in 1990, to more than 4 million, or 1.6%  of
the  population  in 2000.  The population  over  age 65  suffers from  a greater
incidence of chronic illnesses and disabilities than the rest of the  population
and   currently  accounts  for  more  than   two-thirds  of  total  health  care
expenditures in  the United  States. As  the  number of  Americans over  age  65
increases, the need for long-term care services is also expected to increase.

    INDUSTRY  CONSOLIDATION.  The long-term  care industry is highly fragmented.
As of June 1993,  there were approximately 16,000  long-term care facilities  in
the  United  States,  which contained  approximately  1.6 million  beds.  The 32
largest long-term care  providers comprise  approximately 20%  of the  long-term
care facilities and 22% of the total industry beds.

    Recently,  the industry has been subject to competitive pressures which have
resulted in  a trend  towards  consolidation of  smaller, local  operators  into
larger,   more  established  regional  or  national  operators.  The  increasing
complexity of medical services,  growing regulatory and compliance  requirements
and   increasingly   complicated   reimbursement   systems   have   resulted  in
consolidation of  operators who  lack the  sophisticated management  information
systems, operating efficiencies and financial resources to compete effectively.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

    The  Company's business strategy  emphasizes growth of  its specialty health
care services and long-term care operations and concentration of its  operations
in geographic regions.

    EXPANSION  THROUGH ACQUISITIONS.  The Company  intends to continue to expand
its operations through the acquisition  in select geographic areas of  long-term
care facilities and providers of specialty health care services. The acquisition
of long-term care facilities provides further opportunities for expansion of the
Company's  higher margin specialty programs.  See "Acquisitions and Expansion --
Recent Acquisitions" and "-- Pending Acquisitions."

    REVENUE ENHANCEMENT  THROUGH  EXPANDED  SPECIALTY  SERVICES.    The  Company
intends  to  continue  to  expand  its specialty  health  care  services  at its
facilities in order to  improve profit margins, occupancy  levels and payor  mix
achieved through these services.

    CONCENTRATION IN TARGETED GEOGRAPHIC AREAS.  With the exception of specialty
hospitals,  the Company concentrates its operations in clusters of approximately
six to eight operating units in

                                       2
<PAGE>
selected geographic  areas. The  Company believes  that concentrating  long-term
care  facilities within selected  geographic areas facilitates  the expansion of
its  specialty  health  care  services  and  provides  operating   efficiencies,
economies of scale and growth opportunities. These operating efficiencies enable
the  Company to  reduce corporate  overhead and  to establish  effective working
relationships with the regulatory and  legislative authorities in the states  in
which  it  operates.  In  addition,  concentration  of  facilities  enhances the
development of stronger  local referral sources  through concentrated  marketing
efforts.

LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES

    The  Company's  long-term  care  facilities  provide  routine  basic patient
services to geriatric and other patients with respect to daily living activities
and general medical  needs. Such  basic patient services  include daily  dietary
services,  recreational  activities, social  services, housekeeping  and laundry
services, pharmaceutical  and  medical  supplies and  24  hour-a-day  access  to
registered  nurses, licensed practical nurses and related services prescribed by
the patient's physician.  At May 31,  1994, the Company  operated 109  long-term
care facilities in 18 states.

SPECIALTY HEALTH CARE SERVICES

    The  Company  provides  a  variety  of  specialty  health  care  services as
described in more  detail below.  The Company  believes that  providing a  broad
range  of specialty  health care  services and  programs enables  the Company to
attract patients with more complex  health care needs. These services  typically
generate higher profit margins to the Company than basic patient services.

    SUBACUTE  CARE.   The  Company's  subacute care  program  grew significantly
during fiscal 1994 with  the opening of three  licensed specialty hospitals  and
three  subacute care units. In addition, the merger of the Company with Greenery
Rehabilitation Group, Inc.  ("Greenery"), which  was completed  on February  11,
1994  (the "Greenery Merger"), added over  1,000 subacute care beds to Horizon's
business, increasing the number of subacute beds  from 168 at the end of  fiscal
1993  to 1,331 at the end of fiscal  1994. The Company provides subacute care to
high acuity  patients with  medically complex  conditions who  require  ongoing,
multi-disciplinary  nursing and  medical supervision  and access  to specialized
equipment and services, but do not  require many of the other services  provided
by an acute care hospital. Each subacute care unit is located in a discrete area
within  the physical structure of a long-term care facility and is supervised by
a separate  medical staff  employed  by the  Company.  Such units  also  provide
ventilator  care, intravenous therapy and various  forms of coma, pain and wound
management. The  Company believes  that private  insurance companies  and  other
third  party payors, including  certain state Medicaid  programs, recognize that
treating patients  requiring subacute  care  in specialty  units such  as  those
operated  by the Company is  a cost effective alternative  to treatment in acute
care hospitals. The Company believes that it can continue to offer subacute care
at rates substantially below those typically charged by acute care hospitals for
comparable services.

    Although subacute  care units  can  be operated  by  the Company  under  its
existing  licenses,  the  Company may  choose  to operate  them  under specialty
hospital licenses due to  the higher reimbursement  rates for services  rendered
under these licenses and the Company's belief that such licenses may enhance its
marketing efforts to referral sources such as physicians, surgeons, managed care
providers  and hospital discharge planners. Seven of the Company's subacute care
units are operated under specialty hospital licenses. Once a specialty  hospital
license  has been obtained, the beds so licensed generally can no longer be used
for patients who require only basic patient care.

    With  the  completion   of  the  Greenery   Merger,  the  Company   expanded
significantly  its presence in the subacute care market. In this connection, the
Company is  now a  party to  a significantly  greater number  of contracts  with
commercial  insurers and  managed care  providers and  out-of-state special rate
Medicaid provider agreements. The Company believes that these relationships will
enable the Company to receive higher  reimbursement rates and profit margins  in
the future.

    REHABILITATION  THERAPIES.   The Company  provides a  comprehensive range of
rehabilitation therapies,  including  physical,  occupational,  respiratory  and
speech therapies in most of its long-term care

                                       3
<PAGE>
facilities  and  through contracts  with third  parties.  In addition,  with the
completion of the Greenery Merger, the  Company has 14 facilities which  provide
comprehensive  in-patient  rehabilitation and  skilled and  intermediate nursing
services  to  patients  who  have  sustained  traumatic  head  injury  or  other
neurological impairments. As of May 31, 1994, the Company provided comprehensive
physical,  occupational and speech therapy services  through 276 contracts in 14
states, 91  of which  are with  Company-operated long-term  care facilities  and
specialty  hospitals,  and 185  of  which are  with  third party  long-term care
facilities, home  health  agencies,  hospitals, outpatient  clinics  and  school
systems.

    INSTITUTIONAL  PHARMACY SERVICES.  The Company  has established a network of
14 regionally  located pharmacies  through which  it provides  a full  range  of
prescription  drugs and infusion  therapy services, such  as antibiotic therapy,
pain management and chemotherapy, to facilities  operated by the Company and  by
third  parties. These pharmacy operations (certain of which are managed by third
parties) enable  the  Company  to generate  revenues  from  services  previously
provided  to the Company  by third-party pharmacy  vendors. The Company provides
institutional pharmacy services in 12  states. The Company currently offers  its
pharmacy services to 80% of its facilities.

    ALZHEIMER'S  LIVING CENTERS.   The Company offers  a specialized program for
persons with Alzheimer's disease through its Alzheimer's Living Centers. At  May
31, 1994, this program had been instituted at 24 of the Company's long-term care
facilities  with  a total  of approximately  700  beds. Each  Alzheimer's Living
Center, which is located in a designated  wing of a long-term care facility,  is
designed  to address the  problems of disorientation  experienced by Alzheimer's
patients and  to  help  reduce  stress and  agitation  resulting  from  a  short
attention  span  and hyperactivity.  Each  Alzheimer's Living  Center  employs a
specially-trained nursing staff and an activities director and engages a medical
director with expertise  in the  treatment of Alzheimer's  disease. The  program
also provides education and support to the patient's family.

    NON-INVASIVE  MEDICAL DIAGNOSTICS.   During  fiscal 1994,  the Company began
providing non-invasive,  portable and  static  diagnostic testing  services  for
physicians and acute care hospitals. These services include cardiovascular (both
cardiac imaging and vascular imaging), pelvic and abdominal testing services and
sleep  diagnostic  services. The  Company has  recently expanded  its diagnostic
expertise and  its  diagnostic  market through  acquisitions.  The  Company  now
provides these diagnostic services in 12 states.

    CLINICAL  LABORATORIES.    During  fiscal 1993,  the  Company  established a
comprehensive clinical laboratory which is  centrally located in Dallas,  Texas,
to   serve  the  long-term  care  industry.   This  laboratory  has  received  a
registration number in accordance with  the Clinical Laboratory Improvement  Act
("CLIA"),  and has all necessary state  regulatory approvals to conduct business
in the  states in  which the  Company currently  operates. A  CLIA  registration
number  is  required  for  clinical laboratories  to  receive  reimbursement for
charges to  patients covered  by Medicare  and Medicaid.  At May  31, 1994,  the
laboratory  provided  services to  approximately 5,875  beds, and  currently has
contracts in place to serve a total  of approximately 15,000 beds by the end  of
the fourth quarter of fiscal 1995.

    The  clinical laboratory provides bodily fluid testing services to assist in
detecting, diagnosing and monitoring diseases. These tests, performed as ordered
by each  resident's  attending physician,  include  testing for  complete  blood
count,  blood chemistry  testing, coagulation  studies, urinalysis, microbiology
tests and therapeutic  drug level  tests. Upon  completion of  these tests,  the
laboratory  electronically communicates the results of  such testing back to the
applicable facility for inclusion on each resident's medical chart for review by
the attending physician.

PROPERTIES

    At  May  31, 1994,  the Company  operated 109  long-term care  and specialty
health care  facilities in  18  states. Most  of  the Company's  facilities  are
subject  to  long-term operating  leases  ranging from  five  to 15  years which
require the Company to pay all  taxes, insurance and maintenance costs. Many  of
the leases contain at least one renewal option to extend the term for five to 15
years.  The  Company  owns  33  of its  facilities.  The  Company  considers its
properties to be  in generally  good operating  condition and  suitable for  the
purposes for which they are being used.

    The  following table summarizes  by state certain  information regarding the

OPERATIONS

    REGIONAL  OPERATIONS.  The Company's long-term care facilities are organized
into four  regions,  each  of  which  is  supervised  by  a  Vice  President  of
Operations.  For  every six  to twelve  centers within  each region,  a District
Director, Quality Assurance  Nurse and  Dietary Consultant  are responsible  for
monitoring  operations. Each facility operated by the Company is supervised by a
licensed  administrator  and  employs  a  Director  of  Nursing  Services,   who
supervises  a staff of registered nurses,  licensed practical nurses and nurses'
aides. A Medical  Director supervises  the medical management  of all  patients.
Other  personnel include  dietary staff,  housekeeping, laundry  and maintenance
staff, activities and  social services  staff and  a business  office staff.  In
addition,  the Company's corporate and regional  staffs provide services such as
marketing assistance,  training,  quality assurance  oversight,  human  resource
management,  reimbursement expertise, accounting, cash management and management
support. Financial  control  is  maintained  through  financial  and  accounting
policies  that are established at the corporate  level for use at each facility.
The Company has standardized  operating procedures and  monitors its centers  to
assure  consistency  of  operations. The  Company's  financial  reporting system
enables it to monitor certain key financial data at each facility such as  payor
mix,  admissions and discharges, cash collections, net patient care revenues and
staffing.

    QUALITY ASSURANCE.    The  Company has  developed  a  comprehensive  quality
assurance  program intended to maintain a high standard of care in each facility
operated by the Company. Under the Company's quality assurance program, the care
and services provided  at each  facility are  evaluated quarterly  by a  quality
assurance  team which  reports directly to  the Company's management  and to the
administrator of each facility. The Company has developed a specialized  quality
assurance program for its Alzheimer's Living Centers.

    The  Company's quality assurance program is comprised of a quality assurance
checklist and  a  patient satisfaction  survey  and evaluation.  The  checklist,
completed  quarterly by  the regional quality  assurance nurses  employed by the
Company, provides  for ongoing  evaluation.  Patient satisfaction  is  evaluated
through patient satisfaction surveys. Patients and their families are encouraged
to  recognize employees who demonstrate outstanding performance. Bonuses paid to
facility administrators  are  dependent  in  part upon  the  rankings  of  their
facility  in such surveys. The Company  has also established a resident advocacy
program to assist patients and their families in resolving any concerns they may
have.

SOURCES OF REVENUES

    The Company  derives  net  patient care  revenues  principally  from  public
funding through the Medicaid and Medicare programs and from private pay patients
and non-affiliated long-term care facilities.

    Under  the  Medicare  program  and state  Medicaid  programs,  the Company's
long-term  care  facilities  are  periodically  paid  in  amounts  designed   to
approximate  the facilities' reimbursable costs  or the applicable payment rate.
Actual costs incurred are reported by each facility annually. Such cost  reports
are  subject to  audit, which  may result in  upward or  downward adjustment for
Medicare  payments  received.  Most  of  the  Company's  Medicaid  payments  are
prospective   payments  intended  to  approximate   costs,  and  no  retroactive
adjustment is made normally to such payments. See "-- Medicaid and Medicare" and
"-- Regulation and Reform Proposals."

    The Company's  charges  for private  pay  patients are  established  by  the
Company from time to time and the level of such charges is generally not subject
to  regulatory control. The Company classifies payments from individuals who pay
directly for services without government assistance as private pay revenues. The
private pay classification  includes revenues  from sources  such as  commercial
insurers  and health  maintenance organizations.  The Company  bills private pay
patients and  rehabilitation  therapy  customers (or  their  insurer  or  health
maintenance  organization)  on  a  monthly  basis  for  services  rendered. Such
billings are  due  and payable  upon  receipt. The  Company  typically  receives
payments  on a current basis from individuals and within sixty to ninety days of
billing from commercial insurers and health maintenance organizations.

                                       6
<PAGE>
    Other revenue sources include  revenues derived from institutional  pharmacy
services,   rehabilitation  therapy  services  provided  to  non-affiliates  and
Veterans Administration  and Bureau  of Indian  Affairs contracts.  The  Company
generally  receives payments from such other sources within sixty to ninety days
of billing.

    The following table identifies the  Company's revenues attributable to  each
of its revenue sources for the periods indicated below:

</TABLE>

    Changes  in the mix  of the Company's patients  among Medicaid, Medicare and
private pay sources and with respect  to different types of private pay  sources
can  significantly  affect  the  revenues  and  profitability  of  the Company's
operations. There can be no assurance that payments under governmental and third
party payor programs  will remain  at current levels  or that  the Company  will
continue  to attract  and retain  private pay  patients or  maintain its current
payor or revenue mix. In an attempt to reduce the federal budget deficit,  there
have  been,  and the  Company expects  there will  continue to  be, a  number of
proposals to  limit  Medicare  and Medicaid  reimbursement  for  long-term  care
services.  The Company cannot at this time  predict whether any of these pending
proposals will  be adopted  or, if  adopted and  implemented, what  effect  such
proposals would have on the Company.

COMPETITION

    The  Company's long-term  care facilities  principally compete  for patients
with other long-term care facilities and,  to a lesser extent, with home  health
care  providers and  acute care  hospitals. Construction  of new  long-term care
facilities near the  Company's facilities could  adversely affect the  Company's
business.   Many  states  require  a  Certificate  of  Need  or  impose  similar
restrictions before  a  new  long-term  care  facility  can  be  constructed  or
additional beds can be added to existing facilities.

    In  competing for  patients, a facility's  local reputation  is of paramount
importance. Referrals  typically come  from  acute care  hospitals,  physicians,
religious    groups,   other   community   organizations,   health   maintenance
organizations and patients' families and friends. Members of a patient's  family
generally  actively participate  in selecting  a long-term  care facility. Other
factors which  affect  a facility's  ability  to attract  patients  include  the
physical  plant condition,  the ability to  identify and  meet particular health
care  needs  in  the  community,  the  rates  charged  for  services,  and   the
availability of personnel to provide the requisite care.

    Competition  for subacute  care patients is  increasing by  virtue of market
entry by numerous other care providers. These market entrants include acute care
hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals and  other specialty service providers.  The
Company  believes that its subacute care  facilities are characterized by a high
level of acuity in patient care provided which is one of the competitive factors
that distinguish subacute  care providers. Other  important competitive  factors
include  the reputation of the facility  in the community, the services offered,
the availability of  qualified nurses,  local physicians  and hospital  support,
physical  therapists and other personnel, the appearance of the facility and the
cost of services.

    The Company also faces competition in its other specialty health care  lines
of   business  (rehabilitation   therapies,  institutional   pharmacy  services,
Alzheimer's  care,  non-invasive  medical   diagnostic  services  and   clinical
laboratory  services), and the  degree of competition  varies depending on local
market conditions.  Competitive  factors  include  nature  and  quality  of  the
services  offered,  timeliness  of  delivery  of  services  and  availability of
qualified personnel.

of  long-term  care   facilities  and   related  businesses.   In  making   such
acquisitions,  the Company competes with other providers, some of which may have
greater financial resources  than the  Company. Certain of  these providers  are
operated  by  not-for-profit  organizations  and  similar  businesses  which can
finance capital  expenditures  on  a  tax-exempt  basis  or  receive  charitable
contributions  unavailable  to  the  Company. There  can  be  no  assurance that
suitable facilities can be located, that acquisitions can be consummated or that
acquired  facilities  can   be  integrated  successfully   into  the   Company's
operations.

EMPLOYEES

    As  of July 31, 1994, the Company employed approximately 15,700 persons, and
approximately 1,000  or  6.3% of  the  Company's employees  in  Ohio,  Michigan,
Wisconsin and Montana were covered by collective bargaining contracts. Of the 18
collective  bargaining  contracts  covering the  Company's  employees,  six will
expire in calendar  year 1994, seven  will expire in  calendar year 1995,  three
will  expire in calendar year  1996, and two will  expire in calendar year 1997.
The Company  believes  it has  had  good  relationships with  the  unions  which
represent  its employees,  but it cannot  predict the effect  of continued union
representation or organizational activities on its future activities.

    Although the Company believes it is  able to employ sufficient personnel  to
staff  its facilities adequately,  a shortage of nurses  in key geographic areas
could affect  the  ability  of  the Company  to  attract  and  retain  qualified
professional  health care personnel or could increase the Company's labor costs.
The Company competes with other health care providers for both professional  and
non-professional    employees   and   with   non-health   care   providers   for
non-professional employees.

ACQUISITIONS AND EXPANSION

    Since its inception  in mid-1986,  the Company has  expanded its  operations
through  the acquisition  of long-term  care facilities  as well  as through the
development of specialty hospitals and  subacute care units. Factors  considered
by  the Company  in targeting  long-term care  facilities which  are acquisition
candidates include  community demographics,  the state's  Medicaid program,  the
local  referral  base  of  physicians  and  hospitals,  local  labor  costs, the
availability  of  nursing   personnel  and  the   historical  occupancy   rates,
reimbursement mix and physical condition of the particular facility.

    Growth through acquisition entails certain risks in that acquired facilities
could  be subject to unanticipated  business uncertainties or legal liabilities.
The Company seeks to minimize  these risks through investigation and  evaluation
of  the facilities proposed to be acquired and through transaction structure and
indemnification. The various  risks associated  with the  implementation of  the
Company's  growth strategies  and uncertainties  regarding the  profitability of
such strategies may adversely affect  the Company's performance. The ability  of
the  Company to acquire additional facilities depends upon its ability to obtain
appropriate financing and personnel.

    Many of the Company's acquisitions  have involved the leasing of  facilities
in  order to  reduce the amount  of capital expenditures.  The Company typically
accomplishes this either through a direct  lease of the facility from the  owner
or  the purchase of the  facility from the owner  followed by a sale/ lease-back
transaction  in  which  the  Company   becomes  the  lessee.  The  Company   has
periodically  purchased facilities directly from the owners and will continue to
do so in the future to the extent it deems appropriate.

    RECENT ACQUISITIONS

    GREENERY.  On February 11, 1994, Horizon and Greenery completed the Greenery
Merger. Pursuant  to  the  Greenery Merger,  the  Company  issued  approximately
2,050,000 shares of Common Stock valued at approximately $48 million and assumed
approximately $58 million in debt and, in exchange therefor, acquired Greenery's
business,  which includes the operation of 20 rehabilitation and skilled nursing
facilities.  Fourteen  of  those  facilities  specialize  in  the  treatment  of
traumatic  head injury and other neurological  impairments and the other six are
long-term care facilities serving patients with medically demanding needs. Eight
of these facilities are located in  Massachusetts and the remainder are  located
in eight other states. See "Business -- Regulation and Reform Proposals."

                                       8
<PAGE>
    Thirteen of these facilities were leased by Greenery from an affiliated real
estate investment trust. At the closing of the Greenery Merger, Greenery and the
affiliate  terminated  all these  leases. The  Company  acquired three  of these
facilities from the trust for $23.3 million in cash and a $5.1 million note.  In
addition,  the Company entered into new leases  with the trust on seven of these
facilities and acquired an option from the trust to purchase these facilities at
prices ranging from $8.3  to $25.0 million  per facility at a  rate of not  more
than one facility per year over the next ten years. The Company agreed to manage
the  three remaining facilities (located  in Connecticut) for a  period of up to
five years.

    ADVANCED CARDIOVASCULAR  TECHNOLOGY, INC.   On  April 1,  1994, the  Company
consummated the acquisition of Advanced Cardiovascular Technology, Inc. ("ACT"),
based  in Albuquerque, New Mexico. ACT provides non-invasive diagnostic services
in eight states. Under  the terms of the  stock exchange agreement, the  Company
exchanged in a tax-free transaction 163,976 shares of its Common Stock valued at
approximately  $4.1 million and  assumed approximately $2.8  million in debt for
100% of the capital stock  of ACT. The exchange price  is subject to an  earnout
adjustment under which the Company, under certain circumstances, will deliver up
to  an additional 204,985 shares  of Common Stock, depending  on the earnings of
ACT  during  the  three  calendar  years  following  its  acquisition.  Of  such
contingent  shares, 159,985 shares  were issued at  the closing and  are held in
escrow.

    PEOPLECARE HERITAGE GROUP.   On July 29, 1994,  the Company consummated  its
acquisition  of 13 peopleCARE Heritage Group nursing facilities (the "peopleCARE
Acquisition") in the greater Dallas, Texas area. The Company paid $56 million in
cash assumed capital lease obligation of approximately $48.6 million, and issued
449,438 shares of Common  Stock valued at approximately  $10 million to  acquire
capital  leases with purchase options on six  facilities and fee simple title to
seven facilities,  aggregating 2,192  beds. The  capital leases  require  annual
rental payments of approximately $5 million.

    TRI-STATE.   On  July 29, 1994,  the Company consummated  its acquisition of
substantially all of  the assets  of Tri-State  Home Respiratory  Care, a  Texas
partnership  ("Tri-State"), located in Texarkana, Texas. Tri-State provides home
respiratory care  services  in  Texas, Oklahoma,  Louisiana  and  Arkansas.  The
Company paid $4.4 million in cash for these assets and will operate them through
a wholly-owned subsidiary.

    OTHER  ACQUISITIONS.   In addition  to the  recent acquisitions  referred to
above, the  Company has  completed four  other acquisitions  since May  1,  1994
involving  the purchase of an aggregate of  469 long-term care beds, 42 personal
care beds,  20 assisted  care living  units, 20  retirement apartment  units,  a
rehabilitation  agency,  and  a  medical  diagnostic  services  company  and the
management of 810 long-term care beds. In connection therewith, the Company paid
$6.7  million  in  cash,  issued  44,220  shares  of  Common  Stock  valued   at
approximately  $1.0  million,  guaranteed approximately  $4.6  million  of lease
obligations and  became  obligated  to provide  approximately  $1.5  million  of
working capital with respect to certain managed facilities.

    PENDING ACQUISITIONS

    At  August 1, 1994, the Company had pending five acquisitions involving four
long-term care facilities  and a  portable vascular  diagnostic laboratory.  The
aggregate   purchase  price  with  respect  to  these  pending  acquisitions  is
approximately $16.0 million. There  can be no  assurance that such  acquisitions
will  be  consummated,  or that  the  terms  thereof will  not  change  prior to
consummation.

MEDICAID AND MEDICARE

    The Medicaid program is a joint federal/state medical assistance program for
individuals who meet certain income and resource standards. Participating states
administer their own Medicaid programs pursuant  to state plans approved by  the
United  States  Department  of  Health  and  Human  Services  ("DHHS").  Centers
participating in  the Medicaid  program  are required  to meet  state  licensing
requirements,  to be certified in accordance  with state and federal regulations
and to enter into a

                                       9
<PAGE>
contract with the  state to  provide services at  the rates  established by  the
state.  All long-term  care facilities operated  by the Company  (other than its
subacute care units and retirement  housing facilities) are certified under  the
appropriate state Medicaid Programs.

    Although  all state Medicaid  programs are subject  to federal approval, the
reimbursement methodologies and  rates vary significantly  from state to  state.
Reimbursement  rates are typically  determined by the  state from "cost reports"
filed annually by each facility, on a prospective or retrospective basis.  Under
a  prospective system,  per diem rates  are established (generally  on an annual
basis) based upon certain  historical costs of  providing services, adjusted  to
reflect  factors such  as inflation and  any additional services  required to be
performed. Retroactive adjustments, if any, are based on a recomputation of  the
applicable  reimbursement  rate following  an  audit of  cost  reports generally
submitted at the end of each year. Reimbursable costs normally include the costs
of providing health care services to patients, administrative and general costs,
and the costs of property and equipment. Not all costs incurred are  reimbursed,
however,  because of cost ceilings applicable to both operating and fixed costs.
However, many  state  Medicaid  programs  include  an  incentive  allowance  for
providers   whose  costs  are  less  than   the  ceilings  and  who  meet  other
requirements. A provider may  not bill a Medicaid  recipient for the portion  of
its  costs for Medicaid-covered services which are not reimbursed by Medicaid. A
provider may bill a Medicaid recipient for requested goods or services which are
not covered by Medicaid. There can  be no assurance that Medicaid  reimbursement
will be sufficient to cover actual costs incurred by the Company with respect to
Medicaid services rendered.

    Medicare  is  a  federal insurance  program  under the  Social  Security Act
("SSA") primarily  for  individuals  age  65  and  over.  The  Medicare  program
reimburses  for skilled nursing services and rehabilitative care on the basis of
the reasonable cost of providing care and for covered specialty services on  the
basis  of established  charges. Like  the various  state Medicaid  programs, the
federal Medicare  program  is regulated  and  subject to  change.  With  certain
exceptions, Medicare is a retrospective cost-based reimbursement system for long
term  care providers in  which each facility receives  an interim payment during
the year, which is later adjusted upward or downward to reflect actual allowable
direct and indirect costs of services  (subject to certain cost ceilings)  based
on  the  submission  of  a  cost  report  at  the  end  of  each  year. Medicare
reimbursement for services rendered to  Medicare patients will generally  govern
the  costs incurred by the Company in  delivering such services. There can be no
assurance that Medicare reimbursement will  be sufficient to cover actual  costs
incurred  by the  Company with  respect to  Medicare services  rendered. Special
regulations apply  to  Medicare  reimbursement for  rehabilitation  therapy  and
institutional    pharmaceutical   services   provided    by   the   Company   at
Company-operated facilities. These Medicare regulations generally require, among
other things, that  in order for  the Company to  obtain reimbursement for  more
than  merely its cost  of services (i) the  Company's rehabilitation therapy and
institutional  pharmacy  subsidiaries  must  each   be  a  bona  fide   separate
organization;  (ii) a substantial part of the rehabilitation therapy services or
institutional pharmacy services, as the case may be, of the relevant  subsidiary
must   be  transacted  with  nonaffiliated  entities,  and  there  is  an  open,
competitive market  for  the  relevant services;  (iii)  rehabilitation  therapy
services  and institutional pharmacy services, as  the case may be, are services
that commonly are obtained by long-term care facilities from other organizations
and are not  a basic element  of patient care  ordinarily furnished directly  to
patients  by such long-term care facilities; and  (iv) the prices charged to the
Company's long-term  care facilities  by  the Company's  rehabilitation  therapy
services  subsidiary and institutional pharmacy subsidiary  are in line with the
charges for such services in the open market and no more than the prices charged
by the Company's  rehabilitation therapy services  subsidiary and  institutional
pharmacy  subsidiary under  comparable circumstances  to nonaffiliated long-term
care facilities. The Company believes that each of the foregoing requirements is
satisfied with respect to its rehabilitation therapy and institutional  pharmacy
subsidiaries,  and therefore the Company  believes it satisfies the requirements
of those regulations.

REGULATION AND REFORM PROPOSALS

    The federal government and all states in which the Company operates regulate
various  aspects  of  the  Company's  business.  The  Company's  long-term  care
facilities are subject to certain federal

                                       10
<PAGE>
certification  statutes and  regulations and  to state  statutory and regulatory
licensing requirements. In  addition, long-term care  facilities are subject  to
various  local  building  codes and  other  ordinances, with  which  the Company
believes it is in compliance.

    All of the Company's long-term care facilities (other than its subacute care
units and retirement housing facilities) are licensed under applicable state law
and are certified or approved  as providers under one  or more of the  Medicaid,
Medicare  or  Veterans  Administration  programs.  Both  initial  and continuing
qualification of a long-term care center to participate in such programs depends
upon many factors, including accommodations, equipment, services, patient  care,
safety,  personnel, physical  environment and adequate  policies, procedures and
controls. Licensing,  certification and  other  applicable standards  vary  from
jurisdiction to jurisdiction and are revised periodically. State agencies survey
all  long-term  care facilities  on a  regular basis  to determine  whether such
facilities  are  in  compliance  with  the  requirements  for  participation  in
government-sponsored third party payor programs.

    The  Company believes that its facilities are in substantial compliance with
the various Medicare  and Medicaid regulatory  requirements applicable to  them.
However, in the ordinary course of its business, the Company receives notices of
deficiencies  for failure  to comply  with various  regulatory requirements. The
Company reviews such notices  and takes appropriate  corrective action. In  most
cases,  the Company and the  reviewing agency will agree  upon the measure to be
taken to  bring the  facility into  compliance.  In some  cases or  upon  repeat
violations,  the  reviewing agency  has the  authority  to take  various adverse
actions against  a  facility,  including  the  imposition  of  fines,  temporary
suspension  of  admission  of  new  patients  to  the  facility,  suspension  or
decertification from participation in the  Medicare or Medicaid program and,  in
extreme  circumstances, revocation of a  facility's license. These actions would
adversely affect a facility's ability to continue to operate, the ability of the
Company to  provide certain  services,  and eligibility  to participate  in  the
Medicare, Medicaid or Veterans Administration programs. Additionally, conviction
of  abusive or  fraudulent behavior with  respect to one  facility could subject
other facilities  under common  control or  ownership to  disqualification  from
participation  in the Medicare  and Medicaid programs.  Certain of the Company's
facilities have received  notices in  the past from  state agencies  that, as  a
result  of certain alleged deficiencies, the  agency was assessing a fine and/or
taking steps  to  decertify the  facility  from participation  in  Medicare  and
Medicaid  programs. In  all cases,  such deficiencies  were remedied  before any
facilities were  decertified.  In  addition,  to  date  none  of  the  Company's
facilities has had its license revoked.

    The  SSA and DHHS regulations provide for exclusion of providers and related
persons from participation in  the Medicare and Medicaid  programs if they  have
been  convicted of  a criminal  offense related  to the  delivery of  an item or
service under either  of these programs  or if they  have been convicted,  under
state  or federal  law, of a  criminal offense  relating to neglect  or abuse of
residents in connection  with the  delivery of a  health care  item or  service.
Further,  individuals or entities and their  affiliates may be excluded from the
Medicaid and Medicare  programs under certain  circumstances including, but  not
limited  to conviction relating  to fraud, license  revocation or suspension, or
filing claims  for  excessive charges  or  unnecessary services  or  failure  to
furnish services of adequate quality. The illegal remuneration provisions of the
SSA,  which  are  broadly  stated prohibitions  against  referrals  for clinical
laboratory and other designated health services,  make it a felony to  knowingly
and  willfully solicit,  receive, offer or  pay any  remuneration, including any
kickback, bribe or  rebate, in  return for,  or to  induce, the  referral of  an
individual  for the furnishing of  any item or service, or  in return for, or to
induce, the purchase, lease or order of any good, facility, item or service  for
which  payment may be made under the Medicaid or Medicare program. Penalties for
violation include imprisonment for up to five years, a fine of up to $25,000, or
both. Further,  the  provider could  also  be  excluded from  the  Medicaid  and
Medicare  programs. In addition, Executive Order 12549 prohibits any corporation
or facility from participating in federal contracts if it or its principals have
been debarred, suspended or  are ineligible, or  have been voluntarily  excluded
from  participating in federal contracts. The federal agencies administering the
Medicaid and Medicare programs have recently stepped up

                                       11
<PAGE>
their criminal and civil enforcement activity in prevention of program fraud and
illegal remuneration. On July 29, 1991, DHHS issued final regulations  outlining
certain"safe  harbor" practices, which although  potentially capable of inducing
prohibited referrals  of  business under  Medicare  or Medicaid,  would  not  be
subject to enforcement action under the anti-remuneration provisions of the SSA.
Proposed  regulations clarifying these regulations  to conform to DHHS' original
intent were published on July 31, 1994.  In addition, two new safe harbors  were
established  on November 5,  1992 to provide protection  for certain health care
plans and seven more safe harbors were proposed on September 21, 1993.  Recently
published  regulations  to  become  effective  September  13,  1994  expand  the
Secretary of DHHS' authority  to impose intermediate  sanctions and civil  money
penalties  in  certain  circumstances. In  addition,  some states  in  which the
Company operates  have laws  that govern  civil or  criminal fraud  or abuse  or
financial arrangements between health care providers, and enforcement activities
may  increase  at  the state  level.  The  Company believes  its  operations and
practices comply  with these  illegal  remuneration provisions.  If any  of  the
Company's   financial   practices  failed   to   comply  with   the   fraud  and
anti-remuneration laws, the Company could be materially adversely affected.  The
Company  does not  believe that  the impact  of the  DHHS' recently  issued safe
harbor regulations will  have a  material adverse  effect on  its business.  The
Company,  however, is unable  to predict the effect  of future administrative or
judicial  interpretations  of  these  laws,  or  whether  other  legislation  or
regulations on the federal or state level in any of these areas will be adopted,
what  form such  legislation or  regulations may  take, or  their impact  on the
Company. There can be no assurance that such laws will ultimately be interpreted
in a manner consistent with the Company's practices.

    As of August 1,  1994, 115 of the  Company's long-term care facilities  were
certified  to receive benefits provided under  Medicare. In order to participate
in the Medicare program, a facility must be licensed and certified as a provider
of skilled  nursing services.  In areas  where the  demand for  skilled  nursing
services  is low or  where the availability of  the requisite registered nursing
personnel is limited, the Company has  opted not to seek such skilled  licensure
and certification.

    The  Company's rehabilitation therapy  and institutional pharmacy businesses
provide Medicare and Medicaid  covered services and  supplies to long-term  care
facilities under arrangements with both long-term care facilities of the Company
and  nonaffiliated  long-term  care facilities.  Under  these  arrangements, the
Company's rehabilitation therapy  and institutional  pharmacy subsidiaries  bill
and  are paid by the long-term care  facility for the services actually rendered
and the  details of  billing  the Medicare  and  Medicaid programs  are  handled
directly   by  the  long-term   care  facility.  As   a  result,  the  Company's
rehabilitation therapy and institutional  pharmacy businesses generally are  not
Medicare  and Medicaid certified and do  not enter into provider agreements with
the Medicare  and Medicaid  programs. The  only exception  to this  is that  the
Company's  institutional pharmacy  business is  authorized to  bill the Medicare
program directly for parenteral and enteral services, which encompasses a narrow
range of supplies, equipment and nutrients.

    Effective October 1,  1990, the  Omnibus Budget Reconciliation  Act of  1987
("OBRA")  eliminated  the different  certification  standards for  "skilled" and
"intermediate care" nursing facilities under the Medicaid program in favor of  a
single  "nursing facility" standard. This standard requires, among other things,
that the Company have at  least one registered nurse on  each day shift and  one
licensed  nurse  on each  other shift  and  increases training  requirements for
nurses aides by requiring a minimum number of training hours and a certification
test before a nurses aide can commence  work. States continue to be required  to
certify  that  nursing  facilities provide  "skilled  care" in  order  to obtain
Medicare reimbursement. Regulations implementing  the requirements of OBRA  were
published  on  September 26,  1991 and  corrected on  September 23,  1992. Other
regulations  affecting  survey  and   certification  requirements  for   nursing
facilities were proposed August 28, 1992, but have not been finalized.

    All  states in which the Company operates,  other than Texas, New Mexico and
Kansas, have adopted Certificate of Need or similar laws which generally require
that a  state agency  approve certain  acquisitions and  determine that  a  need
exists  prior to the addition  of beds or services,  the implementation of other
changes, or the incurrence of certain capital expenditures. State approvals  are
generally

                                       12
<PAGE>
issued  for a  specified maximum expenditure  and require  implementation of the
proposal within a  specified period  of time.  Failure to  obtain the  necessary
state  approval can result in  the inability to provide  the service, to operate
the facility, to  complete the acquisition,  addition or other  change, and  can
also  result in the imposition of sanctions  or adverse action on the facility's
license and adverse reimbursement action.

    In connection with the Greenery  Merger, in December 1993 the  Massachusetts
Department  of Public Health (the "Department") deemed the Company to be neither
suitable nor  responsible in  connection  with its  initial application  to  the
Department  for a  license to acquire  and operate  the Massachusetts facilities
then operated by Greenery, due in part to the Company's historical certification
and decertification  experiences  in other  states.  The Company  appealed  that
determination.  In  order to  resolve the  matter, the  Company entered  into an
agreement with  the Department  under which  the Department  agreed, subject  to
compliance  by  the Company  with the  terms  of the  agreement, to  issue three
successive six-month probationary  licenses to the  Company for the  acquisition
and  operation  of those  facilities and,  during the  18-month duration  of the
agreement, the  Company agreed  to commit  the management  of the  Massachusetts
facilities and patient care oversight to a management company owned and operated
by  the Company's regional  vice president. In addition,  the Company has agreed
not to seek to acquire any other  facility in Massachusetts for the duration  of
the  agreement.  During  the  pendency of  the  agreement,  the  Company derives
substantially all of the financial  benefits from operation of these  facilities
as anticipated by the Company in structuring the Greenery Merger. The first such
probationary licenses were issued on May 24, 1994.

    The  Clinton Administration  has proposed  a plan  to overhaul  the national
health care system.  HR 3600,  the "American Health  Security Act  of 1993"  was
introduced  in Congress in November 1993. Two  committees of the House (Ways and
Means and  Education  and  Labor)  and  Senate  (Finance  and  Labor  and  Human
Resources)  have each reported out a health  care reform bill. Each is different
and each differs significantly  from the legislation  introduced by the  Clinton
Administration.  At the present time, majority  leaders Mitchell and Gephart are
completing drafts of  compromise bills that  will attempt to  meld the  concepts
contained  in the committee bills plus other concepts on health care reform they
believe will be necessary to  gain a majority vote  in each house. A  conference
committee  of the two houses will work through the differences between these two
bills in August and September and, if the process is successful, a final version
of a  health care  bill is  expected to  be voted  on by  the Congress  in  late
September  or  early  October.  The  ultimate  form  and  effect  of legislative
initiatives to change the  methods of providing and  accessing health care,  and
their impact to the Company, are not possible to assess at this time.

INSURANCE

    The  Company  maintains malpractice  and public  liability insurance  in the
amount of $2 million per occurrence with umbrella coverage in the amount of  $10
million  per occurrence. This policy,  which is renewable by  the carrier at the
beginning of each policy period, was most  recently renewed on July 1, 1994  for
the  policy period terminating  on June 1,  1995. The Company  believes that the
insurance coverage which it maintains is adequate and customary in the long-term
care industry. However, there  can be no assurance  that such insurance will  be
adequate  to cover the Company's liabilities or that the Company will be able to
continue its present  insurance coverage on  satisfactory terms, if  at all.  To
date the Company has not been subject to a judgment or entered into a settlement
agreement  with  respect  to  an  insured  liability  claim  which  required  an
out-of-pocket expenditures  by the  Company. The  Company is  self-insured  with
respect  to the health  insurance benefits made available  to its employees. The
Company is also self-insured with respect to its workers' compensation  coverage
in Nevada, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Kansas and Montana. In Texas, the Company
is  a  non-subscriber to  the state's  workers'  compensation pool.  The Company
believes that it has  adequate resources to cover  any self-insured claims,  and
the  Company maintains excess  liability coverage to  protect it against unusual
claims in these areas. However, there can be no assurance that the Company  will
continue  to have such resources available to it or that substantial claims will
not be made against the Company.

    NEAL  M.  ELLIOTT,  the  Company's President,  Chief  Executive  Officer and
Chairman of  the Board,  has served  in those  capacities since  July 1986.  Mr.
Elliott,  a certified public accountant, worked for Price Waterhouse & Co. prior
to joining The Hillhaven  Corporation, a health  care company ("Hillhaven"),  as

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATION

OVERVIEW

    The  Company  adopted a  strategic  business plan  in  1990 to  increase its
specialty health care services as a  percent of operating revenues. The  Company
has pursued this strategy by acquiring long-term care facilities and integrating
its specialty health care services into those facilities, by acquiring providers
of  specialty health care services, and by offering the Company's broad range of
specialty health care  services to  third parties.  As a  result, the  Company's
operating  revenues have grown from  $105.7 million in fiscal  1990 to $375.1 in
fiscal 1994.  Moreover, specialty  health care  services have  grown from  $17.4
million,  or 16.5% of  operating revenues in  fiscal 1990 to  $141.7 million, or
37.8% of operating revenues in fiscal  1994, and to 43.8% of operating  revenues
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994. The Company now provides a broad range of
specialty   health  care   services  including   subacute  care,  rehabilitation
therapies,  Alzheimer's  care,  institutional  pharmacy  services,  non-invasive
medical diagnostic and sleep diagnostic testing services and clinical laboratory
services.

    The Company's strategic business plan emphasizes operating and expanding its
long-term  care and specialty  programs and services  in regionally concentrated
areas, including  the Midwest,  Southwest and  Northeast regions  of the  United
States. The Company is expanding its specialty health care programs and services
through the development of institutional pharmacies, acquisition and development
of  therapy companies  and medical diagnostic  companies and  the conversion and
renovation or acquisition of  specialty hospitals. In  turn, the acquisition  of
long-term care facilities in certain geographic areas has enhanced the Company's
expansion  of its specialty programs. Specifically, in certain geographic areas,
the Company's long-term care presence is a platform from which it can vertically
integrate its specialty health care programs and services.

    These growth objectives have been, and will  continue to be, the basis of  a
strategic  business plan  which has resulted  in net earnings  of $16.6 million,
$7.7 million and $5.0 million for the fiscal years ended May 31, 1994, 1993  and
1992,  respectively, and $14.7 million for the year ended May 31, 1994, on a pro
forma basis  to give  effect to  the Greenery  Merger. See  Note 7  of Notes  to
Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein.

</TABLE>

YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 1994 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 1993

    Total operating revenues increased approximately $142.9 million or 61.5% for
fiscal 1994 as compared with fiscal  1993. The largest portion of such  increase
is   the  result  of  the  Company's  expansion,  both  internally  and  through
acquisition, since May 31, 1993. Greenery, which was acquired effective February
11, 1994, contributed $46.2 million of operating revenues in fiscal 1994. At May
31, 1994 (without giving  effect to the Greenery  Merger), the Company  operated
three  more long-term care facilities, three  more specialty hospitals and three
more subacute  care units  than it  did at  May 31,  1993. As  a result  of  the
consummation  of the Greenery Merger on February 11, 1994, the Company added the
operations of 17 rehabilitation and skilled nursing facilities and three managed
facilities. During  fiscal 1994,  the Company  also expanded  its  institutional
pharmacy  services, its rehabilitation  services in Ohio,  Nevada and Texas, and
its clinical laboratory services in Texas.  An additional cause of the  increase
in  revenues is the  increase in Medicare,  Medicaid and private  pay rates. The
average increase in rates per patient day across all pay types was approximately
9.7%. The increase in operating revenues attributable to such rate increases was
approximately $18.8 million. The average  occupancy of the Company's  facilities
remained  essentially flat  at 90%  and as  a consequence  had no  effect on the
operating revenues.

                                       16
<PAGE>
    Routine expenses increased  approximately $113.7  million or  61% in  fiscal
1994  from $187.6 million in fiscal 1993.  This increase is due primarily to the
increase in the  number of  long-term care facilities,  specialty hospitals  and
subacute  care units operated  by the Company,  as well as  the costs associated
with the  expansion of  specialty health  care services  and programs.  Greenery
accounted for $37.9 million of such increase.

    Facility  lease expense,  depreciation and  amortization and  other property
expense increased  approximately  43% for  the  same period.  This  increase  is
directly  related to the  increased number of facilities  operated. Of the total
increase, Greenery accounted for approximately 20%.

    Interest expense  increased  approximately  47%  during  this  period.  This
increase  is related  to draws under  the Credit Facility,  discussed below, and
assumption of certain bonds and secured real property indebtedness in connection
with facility acquisitions during fiscal  1994. Of the total increase,  interest
expense related to Greenery accounted for approximately 10%.

    As  a  result of  the  foregoing factors,  net  earnings increased  to $16.6
million or $.91 per share for the year ended May 31, 1994. This compares to  net
earnings of $7.7 million or $.62 per share for fiscal 1993. The Greenery Merger,
which  was  accounted  for as  a  purchase,  had no  significant  effect  on the
Company's results of operations for the year ended May 31, 1994.

YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 1993 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED MAY 31, 1992

    Total operating revenues  increased to  $232.2 million in  fiscal 1993  from
$159.0  million in  fiscal 1992. This  46% increase resulted  primarily from the
continuation of the Company's expansion  program. Fiscal 1993 revenues  included
revenues  from a full year of operation  of seven long-term care facilities that
were acquired at  various times during  fiscal 1992. Fiscal  1993 revenues  also
included  revenues  from eight  long-term care  facilities purchased  during the
year, 11 long-term  care facilities leased  during the year  and four  long-term
care  facilities which the Company undertook to manage during the year. Revenues
for fiscal  1993  also reflect  the  opening  of two  specialty  hospitals,  the
operation  of three additional rehabilitation  companies, the establishment of a
clinical laboratory  and  the expansion  of  the Company's  pharmacy  operations
during  the year. The increase  in revenues is also due  in part to increases in
Medicare, Medicaid  and  private  pay  rates during  fiscal  1993.  The  average
increase in rates per patient day across all pay types was approximately 8%. The
increase   in  operating  revenues  attributable  to  such  rate  increases  was
approximately $15.6 million. The average  occupancy of the Company's  facilities
remained  essentially flat  at 89%  and as  a consequence  had no  effect on the
operating revenues.

    Total routine expenses increased 48% to  $187.6 million in fiscal 1993  from
$127.1  million in fiscal 1992. This increase is due to the additional number of
facilities operated as  well as the  continued growth in  specialty health  care
services and programs. Total property expenses increased 30% to $32.9 million in
fiscal  1993 from $25.2 million in  fiscal 1992, reflecting the increased number
of facilities operated in fiscal 1993.

    Interest expense increased approximately 93% to $4.3 million in fiscal  1993
from  $2.2  million in  fiscal  1992. This  increase  was due  primarily  to the
Company's 6.75% convertible subordinated notes  being outstanding during all  of
fiscal  1993, whereas they were outstanding  three and one-half months of fiscal
1992.

    As a result of the foregoing factors, net earnings increased to $7.7 million
or $.62 per share in fiscal 1993 as  compared to $5.0 million or $.44 per  share
in fiscal 1992.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    OPERATIONS.    At May  31,  1994, the  Company's  working capital  was $58.6
million and included cash and cash equivalents of $6.5 million as compared  with
$18.9  million in working capital and $5.9  million in cash and cash equivalents
at May 31, 1993. During the two years  ended May 31, 1993, the cash provided  by
operating  activities more than offset the amount  of cash used in the Company's

                                       17
<PAGE>
operating activities. The net cash provided by operating activities in these two
periods was $9.4  million in  1992 and  $0.6 million  in 1993.  In fiscal  1994,
however,  the  Company's  operating  activities  used  $21.8  million  net cash,
primarily as a result  of an increase in  patient care and settlements  accounts
receivable  in fiscal 1994. Patient care  accounts receivable, net of allowances
for doubtful accounts, increased $46.2 million to $76.9 million at May 31,  1994
as  compared with May 31,  1993. Of this amount,  $16.2 million was generated by
the acquisition of  such accounts receivable  in the Greenery  Merger and  other
acquisitions,  and the balance of $30.0 million represents an increase generated
by existing facilities or by new facilities after the date of acquisition.

    EXPANSION PROGRAM.  The net cash used by the Company's investing  activities
increased  from $19.7 million in fiscal 1992  to $47.4 million in fiscal 1993 to
$49.5 million in fiscal 1994. The primary uses of cash from investing activities
have been capital expenditures and, in fiscal 1994, the Greenery Merger. Capital
expenditures increased from  $10.3 million in  fiscal 1992 to  $53.4 million  in
fiscal  1993;  in  fiscal 1994,  capital  expenditures were  $40.6  million. The
principal purpose of the capital expenditures  during each of these periods  has
been  to  fund  the Company's  internal  and external  expansion  program. While
capital expenditures during the three years ended May 31, 1994 aggregated $104.3
million,  only  $18.4  million  were   expended  for  maintenance  of   existing
facilities.  In addition, the  Greenery Merger consumed $7.8  million in cash in
fiscal 1994.

    The Company's expansion program requires funds (i) to acquire assets and  to
expand  and improve  existing and newly  acquired facilities;  (ii) to discharge
funded indebtedness  assumed  or  otherwise  acquired  in  connection  with  the
acquisitions  of facilities and properties; and (iii) to finance the increase in
patient care  and  other accounts  receivable  resulting from  the  acquisitions
effected pursuant to the program. The funds necessary to meet these requirements
have  been provided principally by the  Company's financing activities and, to a
lesser extent, from  the sale  of marketable securities  and the  sale of  land,
buildings  and equipment.  During the three  years ended May  31, 1994, proceeds
from the  issuance  and  sale  of  Company debt,  net  of  debt  repayments  and
purchases,  amounted  to  $58.0  million. In  addition,  the  proceeds  from the
issuance of Common Stock totaled $75.6 million.

    SOURCES.  At May 31, 1994,  the available credit under the Credit  Facility,
before  the amendment described below, was $47.2 million. To the extent that the
Company's operations and expansion program  require cash expenditures in  excess
of  the amounts  available to  it under the  Credit Facility,  management of the
Company believes that the Company can  obtain the necessary funds through  other
financing  activities,  including  the  issuance and  sale  of  debt  and equity
securities in public and private markets.

CREDIT FACILITY

    The Company is the Borrower under  an Amended and Restated Revolving  Credit
Loan  Agreement  dated  July  29,  1994,  as  thereafter  amended  (the  "Credit
Facility"), with The  Boatmen's National Bank  of St. Louis,  as Agent, and  the
lenders  party  thereto. Subject  to  reduction through  application  of certain
financial ratios, the  aggregate revolving  credit commitment  under the  Credit
Facility  is $150 million, of which the  Company had borrowed $127.75 million at
July 31,  1994. Borrowings  under  the Credit  Facility bear  interest,  payable
monthly,  at a rate equal to either the Adjusted Corporate Base Rate (as therein
defined) of the Agent in effect from time to time, or the London InterBank Offer
Rate plus 1.25% to 2.00%  per annum, depending on the  rating and amount of  the
Company's  outstanding long-term debt, in each case, as selected by the Company.
The applicable interest rate at July 31, 1994 was 7.25%. In addition, borrowings
thereunder mature in March 1997 and are secured by a pledge of certain  accounts
receivable  of the Company  and its subsidiaries,  a pledge of  the stock of all
subsidiaries of  the  Company  and  the guaranties  of  each  of  the  Company's
subsidiaries. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is required to
maintain  certain financial ratios and  is not permitted to  pay any dividend or
distribution with respect to  its outstanding Common Stock  in excess of 25%  of
the  Company's net income for  the prior fiscal year.  The credit agreement: (a)
requires the Company  to maintain  certain financial ratios,  (b) restricts  the
Company's

                                       18

ability  to  make capital  expenditures  beyond certain  specified  amounts, (c)
prohibits transactions  with affiliates  not  at arm's  length, (d)  allows  the
Company  to make only permitted investments, (e) restricts certain indebtedness,
liens, dispositions of property and issuances of securities and (f) prohibits  a
change  in control or a fundamental change in the business of the Company except
under certain limited circumstances.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
 of Horizon Healthcare Corporation:

    We  have  audited the  accompanying consolidated  balance sheets  of Horizon
Healthcare Corporation (a Delaware corporation)  and subsidiaries as of May  31,
1994   and  1993,   and  the   related  consolidated   statements  of  earnings,
stockholders' equity and cash flows  for each of the  three years in the  period
ended  May 31, 1994.  These consolidated financial  statements and the schedules
referred to  below  are the  responsibility  of the  Company's  management.  Our
responsibility  is  to  express  an  opinion  on  these  consolidated  financial
statements and schedules based on our audits.

    We conducted  our  audits in  accordance  with generally  accepted  auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable  assurance about  whether the  consolidated financial  statements are
free of material  misstatement. An audit  includes examining, on  a test  basis,
evidence  supporting the amounts  and disclosures in  the consolidated financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used  and
significant  estimates made  by management,  as well  as evaluating  the overall
financial  statement  presentation.  We  believe  that  our  audits  provide   a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In  our  opinion, the  consolidated financial  statements referred  to above
present fairly,  in all  material respects,  the financial  position of  Horizon
Healthcare  Corporation and subsidiaries  as of May  31, 1994 and  1993, and the
results of their  operations and their  cash flows  for the three  years in  the
period  ended May  31, 1994,  in conformity  with generally  accepted accounting
principles.

    Our audits were  made for the  purpose of  forming an opinion  on the  basic
financial  statements taken  as a  whole. The schedules  listed in  the index of
financial statements are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities
and Exchange  Commission's  rules  and  are not  part  of  the  basic  financial
statements.  These  schedules have  been  subjected to  the  auditing procedures
applied in the  audit of  the basic financial  statements and,  in our  opinion,
fairly  state in  all material  respects the financial  data required  to be set
forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS AMENDED)

                FOR THE YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1994, 1993 AND 1992

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    NATURE OF BUSINESS

    Horizon  Healthcare  Corporation  and  its  subsidiaries  (collectively  the
Company)  is  a leading  provider of  long-term care  and specialty  health care
services. The Company's long-term care  facilities provide skilled nursing  care
and  basic patient  services with  respect to  daily living  and general medical
needs. The Company also provides specialty health care services to its long-term
care facilities and third parties.  Such specialty health care services  include
licensed  specialty  hospital services  and  subacute units,  rehabilitation and
other therapies, institutional pharmacy services, Alzheimer's care, non-invasive
medical diagnostic testing services, home respiratory care services and clinical
laboratory  services.  Substantially  all  of  these  services  are  within  the
long-term  care market  and accordingly,  the Company  operates within  a single
industry segment.

    PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

    The consolidated financial  statements include the  accounts of the  Company
and  its majority owned subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

    NET PATIENT CARE REVENUES

    Net patient care revenues  are recorded at established  billing rates or  at
the  amount  realizable  under  agreements  with  third-party  payors, primarily
Medicaid and Medicare.  Revenues under third-party  payor agreements in  certain
states  are  subject to  examination  and retroactive  adjustments,  and amounts
realizable may change  due to  periodic changes in  the regulatory  environment.
Provisions  for  estimated third-party  payor  settlements are  provided  in the
period the  related  services  are rendered.  Differences  between  the  amounts
accrued  and subsequent  settlements are recorded  in operations in  the year of
settlement.

    A significant  portion of  the Company's  revenue is  derived from  patients
under  the  Medicaid and  Medicare  programs. There  have  been and  the Company
expects that there will continue to be  a number of proposals to limit  Medicare
and  Medicaid  reimbursement, as  well as  revenues  from certain  private payor
sources for long-term  care services. The  Company cannot predict  at this  time
whether  any of these proposals will be  adopted or, if adopted and implemented,
what effect such proposals would have on the Company.

    CASH EQUIVALENTS

    For purposes of the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows,  the
Company  considers its  highly liquid  debt instruments  purchased with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

    DEPRECIATION

    Buildings and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method  over
the  estimated useful lives of the assets (buildings -- 40 years; equipment -- 3
to 10 years). Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  Major
renewals or improvements are capitalized.

    LEASE PURCHASE COSTS

    Lease  purchase costs represent amounts paid  by the Company to obtain lease
rights to  long-term care  facilities and  are amortized  over the  initial  and
renewal terms (where applicable) of the leases expected to be renewed.

                                       25

      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AS AMENDED) (CONTINUED)

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    GOODWILL

    Goodwill  has resulted  from various acquisitions  made by  the Company. All
acquisitions were  accounted  for as  purchases  and  the excess  of  the  total
acquisition  cost over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as
goodwill. Currently, goodwill is being amortized on the straight-line basis over
40 years.

    The Company maintains separate  financial records for  each of its  acquired
entities  and  performs  periodic  strategic and  long-range  planning  for each
entity. The  Company evaluates  its goodwill  quarterly to  determine  potential
impairment by comparing the carrying value to the undiscounted future cash flows
of the related assets. The Company modifies the life or adjusts the value of its
goodwill if any impairment is identified.

    OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

    Costs  incurred in obtaining long-term debt financing are amortized over the
term of the related indebtedness, generally using the effective interest method.
Costs to initiate and implement therapy operations and new nursing or  specialty
units are amortized on a straight-line basis for periods up to five years.

    DEFERRED LEASE CREDIT

    The deferred lease credit represents obligations for above market rate lease
terms  on operating  leases recorded under  purchase accounting.  This credit is
amortized over the terms  of the related leases  to yield level lease  payments,
net of discount accretion.

    INCOME TAXES

    The  Company and  certain of  its subsidiaries  file a  consolidated Federal
income tax return.  Deferred taxes  are provided for  the income  tax effect  of
temporary differences in reporting transactions for financial and tax purposes.

    On  June  1, 1993,  the Company  adopted  Statement of  Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109 (FAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes." The adoption of  FAS
109  changes  the  Company's method  of  accounting  for income  taxes  from the
deferred method (APB  11) to  an asset  and liability  approach. Previously  the
Company deferred the past tax effects of temporary differences between financial
reporting  and taxable  income. The  asset and  liability approach  requires the
recognition of deferred tax liabilities and  assets for the expected future  tax
consequences  of temporary differences between the  carrying amounts and the tax
bases of assets and liabilities.

    MARKET VALUE DISCLOSURES

    The market value  of all financial  instruments approximates their  carrying
value  unless indicated  otherwise in the  applicable notes  to the consolidated
financial statements.

    WORKERS' COMPENSATION

    Workers' compensation  coverage  is effected  through  deductible  insurance
policies  and qualified self insurance  plans which vary by  the states in which
the Company operates. Provisions for  estimated settlements are provided in  the
period  of the  related coverage.  Differences between  the amounts  accrued and
subsequent settlements are recorded in operations in the year of settlement.

    EARNINGS PER SHARE

    Earnings per share is calculated  based upon the weighted-average number  of
common  shares  and common  equivalent  shares outstanding  during  each period.
Common equivalent shares include stock  purchase warrants and options.  Earnings
per common and common equivalent share are based upon 16,751,078 shares in 1994,
11,711,911   shares  in  1993  and  11,401,537  shares  in  1992.  Earnings  per

common share-assuming full dilution is based upon 19,724,461 shares in 1994  and
16,275,875  shares in 1993, including the effect of the convertible subordinated
notes. In 1992, the  computation of earnings per  common share -- assuming  full
dilution was anti-dilutive.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS

    Certain   amounts  in  the  prior  years'  financial  statements  have  been
reclassified to conform to the 1994 presentation.

    On  May 27, 1994, the Company completed a $100,000,000 revolving credit loan
agreement which replaced  the revolving  loan agreement outstanding  at May  31,
1993.  This credit agreement bore interest at either prime plus up to .25% or at
the LIBOR  rate plus  1.25% to  2.00%.  The weighted  average interest  rate  on
amounts  outstanding under the credit  agreement was 6.92% at  May 31, 1994. The
credit agreement (a) requires the Company to maintain certain financial  ratios,
(b)  restricts the Company's ability to make capital expenditures beyond certain
specified amounts,  (c)  prohibits transactions  with  affiliates not  at  arm's
length, (d) allows the Company to make only permitted investments, (e) restricts
certain   indebtedness,  liens,  dispositions  of   property  and  issuances  of
securities and (f) prohibits a change in control or a fundamental change in  the
business  of the Company except under  certain limited circumstances. The credit
facility also restricts  the payment of  dividends by the  Company to an  amount
which  shall not  exceed 25% of  the Company's  net income for  the prior fiscal
year, and any  such payment is  subject to continued  compliance by the  Company
with the financial ratio covenants contained in the credit agreement. The credit
agreement  further  provides  that an  event  of  default under  certain  of the
Company's and its  subsidiaries' obligations  which would result  in a  material
adverse  effect will constitute an event  of default under the credit agreement.

(4) LONG-TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
Certain subsidiaries  of the  Company  have guaranteed  the obligations  of  the
Company  under the credit  agreement. The credit agreement  expires on March 10,
1997, and is secured by a pledge of the stock of all subsidiaries of the Company
and certain accounts receivable of the Company.

    Subsequent to May 31,  1994, the Company increased  the credit agreement  to
$150,000,000. The terms of the increased agreement are substantially the same as
the  existing agreement, except certain accounts  receivable of the Company were
taken as additional collateral. The amount of such collateral was  approximately
$67.7 million at May 31, 1994.

    The approximate aggregate maturities of long-term debt are as follows:

(5) CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES
    On  February 14, 1992,  the Company issued  $57,500,000 of 6.75% convertible
subordinated notes (the Notes) due February 1, 2002. The Notes were  convertible
at  any time prior to maturity  into shares of common stock  of the Company at a
conversion price of $12.00 per share,  subject to adjustment in certain  events.
Interest on the Notes was payable semi-annually on each February 1 and August 1,
commencing  August 1,  1992. During  the year  ended May  31, 1992,  the Company
repurchased $3,230,000 of Notes at approximately 80% of par value, resulting  in
a  gain of $475,000, net of  allocable deferred financing costs of approximately
$140,000. During the third quarter of  1994, the remaining $54,270,000 of  Notes
were  converted into the  Company's common stock at  the conversion price stated
above. In connection therewith,  approximately $1,900,000 of deferred  financing
costs  and $506,000 of  conversion costs were  offset against additional paid-in
capital at the time of conversion.

    In connection  with  the  merger  of  Greenery  Rehabilitation  Group,  Inc.
(Greenery)  into  the Company  (discussed in  Note 7),  the Company  assumed the
obligations under  Greenery's  6.5%  convertible subordinated  notes  and  8.75%
convertible  senior  subordinated notes,  in the  aggregate principal  amount of
$26,631,000  and  $28,150,000,  respectively,   at  February  11,  1994.   These
obligations  were recorded at their fair market value under purchase accounting,
resulting  in  a  discount  on  the  6.5%  convertible  subordinated  notes   of
$2,663,100.

    The   6.5%  convertible  subordinated  notes  are  due  June  2011  and  are
convertible into common stock  of the Company  at a price  of $69.32 per  share.
These  notes may  be redeemed in  whole or in  part at 103.25%  of par declining
annually to par  on June 15,  1996, plus accrued  interest. Commencing June  15,
1996,  the Company  is obligated to  retire 5%  of the issue  amount annually to
maturity.

    The 8.75%  convertible  senior  subordinated  notes are  due  2015  and  are
convertible into common stock of the Company at a price of $54.00 per share. The
Company  may redeem the notes, in whole or  in part at 106.125% of par declining
annually to par  on April 1,  2000, plus accrued  interest. Commencing April  1,
2000, the Company is required to retire 5% of the original issue amount annually
to  maturity.  The  notes  are  senior  to  the  6.5%  debentures,  but  will be
subordinated to any future senior indebtedness.

(5) CONVERTIBLE SUBORDINATED NOTES (CONTINUED)
    During the fourth quarter  of 1994, the  Company repurchased $15,520,000  of
the  6.5% convertible subordinated notes and $7,243,750 of the 8.75% convertible
senior  subordinated  notes.  The  Company  recorded  a  gain  of  approximately
$734,000,  net  of  the write-off  of  $1,552,000 debt  discount  recorded under
purchase accounting and income taxes of approximately $480,000.

    The market value of  the outstanding convertible  subordinated notes at  May
31,  1994 and 1993 was  approximately $27,500,000 and $66,200,000, respectively.
The market value  is a  function of  both the  conversion feature  and the  debt
instrument.  It is impracticable to allocate  the market value between those two
components. The market value is not representative of the amounts that would  be
currently required to retire the debt obligation.

(6) LEASE COMMITMENTS
    The  Company has noncancelable operating leases primarily for facilities and
equipment. Certain leases provide  for purchase and renewal  options of 5 to  15
years,  contingent  rentals  primarily  based  on  operating  revenues,  and the
escalation of  lease  payments coincident  with  increases in  certain  economic
indexes. Contingent rent expense for the years ended May 31, 1994, 1993 and 1992
was approximately $1,060,000, $680,000 and $554,000, respectively.

leases on managed facilities.

    For the year ended May 31, 1994, the Company leased eight facilities from an
affiliate of two director nominees of  the Company. The aggregate lease  expense
for  these  facilities  for  the  year  ended  May  31,  1994  was approximately

interest in two rehabilitation companies during 1993 in Texas and Nevada.

    On  February 11, 1994, the Company completed its previously announced merger
of Greenery into  the Company.  Pursuant to  the merger,  the Company  exchanged
approximately  2,050,000  shares of  its common  stock, valued  at approximately
$48,000,000, for  all  of  the  outstanding shares  of  Greenery  common  stock,
resulting in the recording of goodwill of approximately $43,200,000. This merger
added  the operations of 17 rehabilitation  and skilled nursing facilities and 3
managed facilities to the Company's current operations. In addition, the Company
had other acquisitions during 1994 which in the aggregate were insignificant.

    The Company has accounted  for all acquisitions  using the purchase  method.
The  following unaudited condensed  pro forma combined  statements of operations
reflects the combined results of operations for the years ended May 31, 1994 and
1993 as  if the  Greenery and  other significant  acquisitions and  dispositions
during 1994 and 1993 had been consummated on June 1, 1992:

    The statement of operations of Greenery for the twelve months ended June 30,
1993  includes a $20,272,000  non-recurring expense related  to the write-off of
certain capital costs. This non-recurring expense was reduced to $11,788,000  in
the  pro forma statement of operations in  order to eliminate the effect of that
portion of the  non-recurring expense applicable  to Greenery assets  sold to  a
related party prior to the merger.

(8) INCOME TAXES
    On  June  1, 1993,  the Company  adopted  Statement of  Financial Accounting
Standards (FAS 109) No.  109 "Accounting for  Income Taxes" through  retroactive
restatement  of its financial statements from June  1, 1990. FAS 109 requires an
asset and liability approach  for financial accounting  and reporting of  income
taxes.  This statement recognizes (a) the  amount of taxes payable or refundable
for the current year and (b) deferred tax liabilities and assets for the  future
tax  consequences  of  events  that have  been  recognized  in  the consolidated
financial statements or tax returns.

(8) INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)
    In accordance with FAS  109, the income tax  expense (benefit) for the  year
ended  May 31, 1994  is equal to the  sum of deferred  tax expense (benefit) and
income taxes currently  payable or  refundable. Deferred  tax expense  (benefit)
results  from  changes  in  deferred tax  liabilities  or  assets.  Deferred tax
liabilities and  assets are  recognized  for the  estimated future  tax  effects
attributable   to  temporary  differences  between   the  bases  of  assets  and
liabilities for  tax  and  financial  statement  purposes.  Income  tax  expense

    The Company also has an employee stock purchase plan (the 'Plan'). The  Plan
allows substantially all full-time employees to contribute up to five percent of
their  compensation for the purchase of the Company's common stock at 85 percent
of market value at the  date of purchase. As of  May 31, 1994, 16,020 shares  of
the Company's stock had been purchased under the Plan.

    In  addition and in connection with  the Greenery merger, the Company issued
to one of the Company's directors a five year option to purchase 125,000  shares
of the Company's common stock at $17 per share.

    The  total number of  shares allocated, granted  and outstanding pursuant to
the Company's  employee and  directors  stock option  plans and  employee  stock
purchase  plan together  with other shares  issued or allocated  for issuance to
employees and directors pursuant to option, incentive or similar plans, may  not

(10) EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
    In 1993, the Company established  a deferred compensation plan for  selected
employees  that work full-time  and have been  employed by the  Company for more
than one year. This  plan, which is  not required to be  funded by the  Company,
allows  eligible employees to defer portions of their current compensation up to
10%. The Company then matches up to 4% of the employee's deferred  compensation.
Employee  contributions are vested immediately. Employer contributions vest on a
graduating basis,  with full  vesting achieved  at  the end  of six  years.  The
Company  contributed approximately  $124,000 and  $39,000 to  this plan  for the
years ended May 31, 1994 and 1993 respectively. No contribution was made for the
year ended May 31, 1992.

    The Company also has  a 401(k) savings plan  available to substantially  all
employees who have been with the Company for more than six months. Employees may
defer  up to 20% of  their salary, subject to the  maximum permitted by law. The
Company may, at its discretion, match a portion of the employee's  contribution.
Employee  contributions are vested immediately. Employer contributions vest on a
graduating basis,  with full  vesting achieved  at the  end of  five years.  The
Company  contributed approximately  $136,000 and  $15,000 to  this plan  for the
years ended May 31, 1994 and 1993 respectively. No contribution was made for the
year ended May 31, 1992.

    In addition, the Company also has a profit-sharing plan to which it may make
contributions at its discretion. The Company  has not made any contributions  to
this  plan. Although it has  not expressed any intent to  do so, the Company may
terminate any of the above plans at any time.

    Greenery had additional employee benefit plans in place prior to the merger.
The Company  is  currently  in the  process  of  merging these  plans  into  the
Company's existing employee benefit plans.

(12) COMMITMENTS

    LETTERS OF CREDIT

    The Company  was  contingently  liable for  letters  of  credit  aggregating
$8,550,684  at May 31,  1994. The letters of  credit were used  in lieu of lease
deposits for facilities operated by the  Company and for deposits under  various
workers' compensation programs.

    EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

    Under  annual employment  agreements with two  of the officers/stockholders,
the Company  is committed  to  pay minimum  annual salaries  totaling  $700,000,
subject to certain covenants. In addition, the employment agreements provide for
annual  retirement benefits  and disability  benefits equal  to a  maximum of 50
percent  of  each  officer's  base  salary.  The  retirement  benefits  vest  in
equivalent  increments over 10 years and  the disability benefits terminate upon
retirement or  age  65. Further,  an  annual death  benefit  is payable  to  the
surviving  spouse  or minor  children equal  to  one-half the  vested retirement
benefit at the  time of  the officer's death.  Amounts recorded  for the  annual
retirement   and  disability  benefits  have  been  included  in  other  accrued
liabilities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company's
management believes  the implementation  of  Statement of  Financial  Accounting
Standards  No. 112 "Employers' Accounting  for Postemployment Benefits" will not
have a material impact on the results of operations or financial position of the
Company.

    In addition and  in connection  with the  Greenery merger,  the Company  has
entered  into  a  seven year  consulting  agreement  with one  of  the Company's
directors for which  the Company  has agreed to  pay annual  consulting fees  of
$175,000.

    LIFE INSURANCE PREMIUMS

    In  fiscal 1994, the Company agreed to  fund life insurance premiums for two
of its officers.  To date  such advances  total approximately  $563,000 and  are
reflected  in other assets. These advances will  be repaid to the Company by the
officers' estates upon the earlier of  cancellation of the policies or death  of
the officers.

    PURCHASE COMMITMENTS

    Under  the  terms of  one of  the Company's  facility lease  agreements, the
Company has the option to purchase the facility and the lessor has the option to
require the Company to purchase the facility should the Company fail to exercise
the purchase option for  $5.5 million at  the end of the  lease term (August  1,
1998).

    MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

    In  connection with the Greenery merger, the Company has committed to manage
three Connecticut facilities for  an affiliate of two  director nominees of  the
Company.  The Company  is committed  to manage these  facilities for  up to five
years, subject to the affiliate's right to terminate sooner at any time with  90
days notice.

    In connection with the management agreement, the affiliate acquired from the
Company  the  leasehold  improvements  of  these  facilities  for  approximately
$903,000. A  receivable for  this amount  is recorded  by the  Company in  other
assets at May 31, 1994.

(13) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
    In  June 1994, the Company entered  into agreements to acquire substantially
all of the  assets of peopleCARE  Heritage Group, a  13 facility long-term  care
company  located in Texas. Under  the terms of the  agreements, the Company will
pay $56 million in cash and issue  approximately $10 million in common stock  to
acquire  fee  simple  title to  seven  facilities  and leasehold  rights  to the
remaining six facilities, including purchase  options on the leased  facilities.
The cash portion of the purchase price is

ITEM 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

    Upon  consummation of the Horizon merger  with Greenery, Horizon sold to HRP
for cash the leasehold improvements of three Greenery facilities in  Connecticut
that  Horizon determined not to operate on  a long-term basis. Horizon agreed to
operate these  facilities  for  a  specified period  on  behalf  of  Connecticut
Subacute  Corporation II ("Tenant"), an entity  wholly owned by Gerard M. Martin
and Barry M. Portnoy,  nominees to the  Board of Directors  of Horizon. HRP  now
leases these previous Greenery facilities to Tenant. Horizon continues to manage
these  facilities for  Tenant for a  management fee  equal to 7%  of net patient
revenues for a period that will extend for up to five years from the date of the
merger, subject to the Tenant's right to terminate upon certain conditions.  The
management  fee was negotiated at arms'  length, and Horizon believes the amount
of the fee is competitive with prevailing market rates based upon the management
obligations involved.  Under  the  terms  of the  agreement  with  HRP,  Horizon
guarantees  Tenant's lease obligations under the  leases and provides Tenant the
working capital  reasonably  required  for the  operation  of  such  facilities,
including  operating deficits, should they occur.  For the fiscal year ended May
31, 1994,  there were  working capital  advances of  approximately $700,000  and
correspondingly, no amounts had been paid by Tenant to Horizon.

    Prior  to the  merger with  Horizon, Greenery  sold to  B&G Partners Limited
Partnership ("B&G"), an entity owned by  Messrs. Martin and Portnoy, (a) a  $7.8
million  promissory note of Advisors bearing annual  interest at 12% and due and
payable in 1994; (b) all of  the outstanding capital stock of Greenery  Holding,
Inc.;  (c) Greenery's home office in Newton, Massachusetts; and (d) certain real
property and improvements in  Framingham, Massachusetts. Greenery Holding,  Inc.
was  a wholly owned  subsidiary of Greenery,  the sole assets  of which were (x)
500,000 restricted shares of  HealthVest, a Maryland trust;  (y) a $7.0  million
promissory note of HealthVest; and (z) certain real property and improvements in
Austin,  Texas. The aggregate  purchase price for  such non-operating assets was
$20 million. B&G  delivered to Horizon  a promissory note  for $20 million  with
annual  interest thereon at  the lesser of  8% or 2.25%  over the 6-month London
Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"),  and one-half of the  payment of such note  is
guaranteed  by each  of Mr.  Martin and  Mr. Portnoy.  Interest on  this note is
payable semi-annually,  and a  principal payment  of $7.0  million plus  accrued
interest  was paid  on March  1, 1994, with  all remaining  unpaid principal and
interest due in 2008.  In the event  of any default with  respect to payment  of
such note, Horizon will diligently pursue

                                       38
<PAGE>
all  available remedies.  Horizon does  not expect  that any  such default would
materially impair the on-going health care operations of the Company as  Horizon
is not relying on repayment of the note to fund its operations.

    Mr.  Portnoy, upon  consummation of the  merger with  Greenery, received, in
exchange for an option held by him to purchase 500,000 shares of Greenery common
stock at  $4.25 per  share, a  five-year option  to purchase  125,000 shares  of
Horizon  Common Stock  at a  price of  $17.00 per  share. Mr.  Portnoy also held
additional options  to  purchase 18,000  shares  of Greenery  common  stock,  at
exercise  prices that  ranged from  $3.06 to $7.00  per share,  which, under the
terms of the Merger Agreement, he was entitled upon consummation of the  merger,
to  either cash out for $1 per share  or exchange for options to acquire Horizon
Common Stock. Prior to the consummation of the merger, these additional  options
were cashed out.

    Upon  consummation  of  the merger,  Mr.  Martin entered  into  a consulting
agreement with Horizon, as described below under the caption "-- Employment  and
Consulting Agreements." Mr. Martin and his wife were controlling shareholders of
Greenery,  and  Mr.  Portnoy  was  a  shareholder  of  Greenery.  As  such, upon
consummation of  the merger  they received  shares of  Horizon Common  Stock  in
exchange  for their respective  shares of Greenery common  stock. Mr. Martin and
his wife were also  granted certain registration rights  in connection with  the
shares of Horizon Common Stock received by them in the merger.

    In  April 1994,  Horizon acquired  Advanced Cardiovascular  Technology, Inc.
("ACT"). Klemett  L. Belt,  Jr., Executive  Vice President  and Chief  Financial
Officer  of Horizon,  prior to  such acquisition,  had loaned  ACT approximately
$400,000, which was  evidenced by  a convertible subordinated  debenture in  the
principal  amount  of  $400,000.  The  convertible  subordinated  debenture bore
interest at the prime rate  as published in The  Wall Street Journal plus  3.5%,
interest  being  payable monthly,  with  principal being  due  May 1,  1995. The
convertible subordinated debenture  was secured  by substantially  all of  ACT's
assets  that  were  not  subject  to capital  lease  obligations  and  was fully
subordinated to the bank financing  of ACT. At any time  prior to May 1995,  the
convertible  subordinated  debenture  was  convertible  into  ACT  common  stock
representing a 7.5% equity interest  in ACT on a  fully diluted basis. Mr.  Belt
extended  the loan to ACT to provide for certain of ACT's working capital needs.
Additionally, Mr.  Belt  held  an  option,  expiring  in  1996,  to  acquire  an
additional 25% ownership in ACT on a fully diluted basis for a purchase price of
$1,300,000.  Upon the closing of the acquisition of ACT, Horizon funded ACT with
sufficient amounts  to  allow ACT  to  pay in  full  to Mr.  Belt  the  $400,000
convertible subordinated debenture and Horizon purchased Mr. Belt's option for a
cash  payment at the closing of $100,000. An additional cash payment of $100,000
will be paid by Horizon to Mr. Belt if and when ACT achieves pre-tax earnings of
$6 million within the first three years of Horizon ownership.

    As previously disclosed  to stockholders, on  October 11, 1993,  Albuquerque
Centre Ltd., Co., a New Mexico limited liability company ("Albuquerque Centre"),
bought  the Albuquerque  Centre Building in  which Horizon leases  space for its
corporate offices.  The  members of  Albuquerque  Centre are  Neal  M.  Elliott,
Chairman  and Chief Executive  Officer of Horizon  (33.33% interest), Klemett L.
Belt, Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Horizon,  and
his wife (together, 30.67% interest), Charles H. Gonzales, Senior Vice President
of  Horizon  (5.34%  interest),  and  two  unrelated  parties  (together, 30.67%
interest). The  purchase  price was  $3,400,000.  At  the time  of  purchase  by
Albuquerque Centre the Albuquerque Centre Building had a 45% vacancy rate. Under
Horizon's lease with the previous owner of the Albuquerque Centre Building dated
April  1, 1987, as  amended, Horizon leases  about 39,269 square  feet, or about
50.67% of the net rentable space in the Albuquerque Centre Building. As with all
other leases in  the Albuquerque  Centre Building, the  previous owner  assigned
Horizon's  lease to Albuquerque Centre. In  turn, Albuquerque Centre assumed the
previous owner's  duties under  Horizon's lease.  Horizon now  pays  Albuquerque
Centre  annual  rent of  about  $360,000, plus  its  proportionate share  of the
Albuquerque Centre Building's common operating expenses. This is the same amount
of rentals and operating expenses Horizon

                                       39
<PAGE>
would otherwise  have paid  to  the previous  owner  of the  Albuquerque  Centre
Building  had Albuquerque  Centre not bought  the building.  During fiscal 1994,
Horizon paid approximately  $220,000 in rental  payments to Albuquerque  Centre.
Horizon's  lease term ends on June 30,  1995. Horizon has not determined whether
it will continue to  lease space in the  Albuquerque Centre Building after  that
date.

    On  July  27, 1994,  the  Board of  Directors  of the  Company  approved the
Company's purchase of usage of a  Cessna/Citation II aircraft from AMI  Aviation
II,  L.L.C., a  Delaware limited liability  company ("AMI II").  Neal M. Elliott
owns 99%  of  the membership  interests  of AMI  II.  Under the  aircraft  usage
agreement,  the Company will purchase a maximum  of 30 hours usage per month for
$25,000 per month for a five year period,  and will pay $650 per hour for  usage
over  30 hours in a  month. In addition, the  Company will pay certain operating
expenses, such as take-off and landing  fees, ground services and certain  other
expenses. The Company believes that the amounts payable under this agreement are
comparable  to  those it  would  pay to  other  third party  vendors  of similar
aircraft services.

    Each director and each officer of the  Company who is subject to Section  16
of  the Securities  Exchange Act  of 1934, as  amended (the  "Exchange Act"), is
required by Section 16(a) of  the Exchange Act to  report to the Securities  and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), by a specified date, his or her transactions in
the  Company's securities.  Certain of  such directors  and officers  have filed
reports after  the  dates specified  for  such  reporting: Mr.  Elliott  --  two
reports,  five transactions;  Mr. Belt  -- five  reports, ten  transactions; Mr.
Jeffries -- seven  reports, 10 transactions;  Mr. Gonzales --  five reports,  24
transactions;  Mr. Schofield  -- five  reports, 20  transactions; Mr.  McCord --
three reports, three transactions; Mr. Noveck -- four reports, six transactions.
