                                        (Unaudited)


Note 1. - Basis of Presentation
-------------------------------

     The   condensed   consolidated   balance   sheets  and  related   condensed
consolidated  statements of earnings and cash flows contained in this Form 10-Q,
which are  unaudited,  include the  accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries.  All  significant  intercompany  accounts and  activity  have been
eliminated  in  consolidation.  In the opinion of  management,  all  adjustments
necessary  for a fair  presentation  of  such  financial  statements  have  been
included.  Adjustments  consisted only of normal recurring items. The results of
operations  for the three  months and six months  ended June 30,  2000,  are not
necessarily  indicative  of the  results to be  expected  for the  fiscal  year.
Certain prior years' amounts have been  reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.

     The  condensed   consolidated  financial  statements  do  not  include  all
information  and footnotes  necessary for a complete  presentation  of financial
position,  results of  operations  and cash flows in conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles.  Reference  is made to the  Company's  audited
consolidated  financial statements and the related notes as of December 31, 1999
and 1998 and for each of the years in the three year period  ended  December 31,
1999, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K on file with the Securities and
Exchange  Commission,   which  provide  additional  disclosures  and  a  further
description of accounting policies.


Note 2. - Expansion of Borrowing Capacity
-----------------------------------------

     Effective  May 11,  2000,  the  Company  amended  its  loan  agreement  and
increased  its  borrowing  capacity on its  revolving  line of credit from $30.0
million to $40.0  million.  The increased  revolving  commitment  will remain in
effect  until the close of  business on August 14,  2000,  at which time it will
reduce to $30.0  million.  The terms of the  amended  revolving  commitment  are
identical to those of the original credit agreement. The Company has commitments
to  significantly  expand  its  term  loan  and  expects  to close on a new loan
agreement during the third quarter. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources".


Note 3. - Common Stock Split
----------------------------

     On May 10, 2000,  the Company's  Board of Directors  approved a two-for-one
split of the Company's  Common Stock in the form of a stock dividend,  which was
distributed  on June 19,  2000,  to  stockholders  of record as of May 31, 2000.
Share and per share amounts in the condensed  consolidated  financial statements
and accompanying notes have been restated to reflect the split.

Note 6. - Current Developments in Accounting and Reporting
----------------------------------------------------------

     In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC") released
Staff   Accounting   Bulletin  No.  101,   "Revenue   Recognition  in  Financial
Statements." This bulletin summarizes certain views of the SEC staff on applying
generally  accepted  accounting  principles to revenue  recognition in financial
statements.  Management is currently in the process of evaluating  the impact of
this  bulletin,  but  does not  expect a  material  effect  on the  consolidated
financial statements. This bulletin is effective beginning the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2000.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1999
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Operating  revenues  during  the second  quarter  2000  increased  by $34.0
million,  or 46.2%, to $107.7 million as compared to the second quarter of 1999.
Acquisitions accounted for 22.7% of the net increase.  Inpatient program revenue
increased by $101,000 to $29.3 million,  primarily reflecting a 1.7% increase in
the average number of inpatient programs from 130.9 to 133.1 and a 0.3% increase
in average  per diem  billing  rates,  offset by a 1.6%  decrease in the average
daily  billable  census per inpatient  program to 14.4. The decrease in billable
census per program for inpatient  programs is primarily  attributable  to a 2.4%
decrease  in  average  length  of stay  to 14.1  offset  by a 0.7%  increase  in
admissions  per program.  Outpatient  revenue  increased  37.6% to $9.8 million,
reflecting an increase in the average number of outpatient  clinics managed from
37.1 to 48.3 and an increase in units of service  per clinic.  Contract  therapy
revenue increased 103.2% to $6.7 million,  reflecting an increase in the average
number of contract therapy locations managed from 84.3 to 144.5, and an increase
in revenue per location.

     Staffing revenue increased 81.8% to $61.9 million,  reflecting $1.7 million
from the July 1, 1999  acquisition  of  AllStaff,  Inc.,  $5.9  million from the
December 20, 1999 acquisition of eai Healthcare Staffing  Solutions,  Inc. ("eai
Healthcare  Staffing"),  and a 46.6% increase in weeks worked at existing travel
and supplemental offices from 30,322 to 44,452.

     Operating  expenses for the three  months ended June 30, 2000  increased by
$23.7 million,  or 44.7%, to $76.6 million as compared to the three months ended
June  30,  1999.  Acquisitions  accounted  for  approximately  28.5%  of the net
increase.  The remaining  increase in operating  expenses is attributable to the
increase in outpatient units of services,  increased contract therapy locations,
and increased weeks worked from travel and supplemental staffing offices, offset
by decreased costs in inpatient programs.

     General and administrative  expenses  increased $6.7 million,  or 54.3%, to
$19.0  million,  reflecting  increases in corporate  office  expenses as well as
marketing, business development, operations and professional services in support
of the increase in outpatient  clinics,  contract therapy locations and staffing
offices,  plus the addition of general and administrative  expenses of companies
acquired.

     Depreciation and amortization  increased $362,000 reflecting an increase in
goodwill from acquisitions and depreciation on equipment purchased.

     Interest expense increased $331,000  reflecting interest on additional debt
funding the  acquisitions,  borrowings  under the  revolving  line of credit for
working capital purposes and an increase in interest rates.

     Earnings before income taxes  increased by $3.0 million,  or 48.5%, to $9.2
million.  The provision  for income taxes for 2000 was $3.6 million  compared to
$2.5 million in 1999,  reflecting effective income tax rates of 39.7% and 39.8%,
respectively. Net earnings increased by $1.8 million, or 48.8%, to $5.5 million.
Diluted earnings per share increased 34.6% to $.35 from $.26 on an 8.5% increase
in the weighted-average shares and assumed conversions outstanding. The increase
in weighted average shares outstanding is attributable primarily to stock option
exercises  and the increase in the dilutive  effect of stock options as a result
of an increase in the average  market price of the Company's  stock  relative to
the underlying exercise prices of outstanding options.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1999
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Operating  revenues  during the first six months of 2000 increased by $70.8
million,  or 49.6%,  to $213.7  million as  compared  to the first six months of
1999.  Acquisitions  accounted for 23.2% of the net increase.  Inpatient program
revenue  increased  by $1.6  million to $59.8  million.  A 2.1%  increase in the
average  number of  inpatient  programs  from 131.1 to 133.9  programs  plus one
additional  day in February  2000 offset by a 0.7% decrease in the average daily
billable  census per  inpatient  program to 14.6  resulted in a 2.1% increase in
billable  patient  days to  356,256.  The  increase in  billable  patient  days,
combined  with a 0.7%  increase in average per diem billing  rates,  generated a
2.8%  increase in revenue  from  inpatient  programs.  The  increase in billable
census per program for inpatient  programs is primarily  attributable  to a 0.9%
increase in admissions per program.  Outpatient revenue increased 44.4% to $19.5
million,  reflecting $1.4 million from the May 20, 1999 acquisition of Salt Lake
Physical  Therapy  Associates,  Inc.,  an  increase  in the  average  number  of
outpatient  clinics  managed  from  36.4 to 47.2,  and an  increase  in units of
service per clinic.  Contract therapy revenue increased 112.4% to $12.9 million,
reflecting  an  increase in the average  number of  contract  therapy  locations
managed from 79.9 to 139.8, and an increase in revenue per location.

     Staffing revenue increased 86.4% to $121.5 million, reflecting $3.2 million
from the July 1, 1999  acquisition  of AllStaff,  Inc.,  $11.7  million from the
December 20, 1999 acquisition of eai Healthcare  Staffing,  and a 52.2% increase
in weeks  worked at  existing  travel and  supplemental  offices  from 57,752 to
87,911.

     Operating  expenses  for the first six  months of 2000  increased  by $49.4
million,  or 48.2%,  to $151.9  million as  compared  to the first six months of
1999.  Acquisitions  accounted for approximately 25.2% of the net increase.  The
remaining  increase in  operating  expenses is  attributable  to the increase in
outpatient  units  of  services,   increased  contract  therapy  locations,  and
increased weeks worked from travel and supplemental staffing offices.

     General and administrative  expenses increased $13.5 million,  or 55.8%, to
$37.6  million,  reflecting  increases in corporate  office  expenses as well as
marketing, business development, operations and professional services in support
of the increase in outpatient  clinics,  contract therapy locations and staffing
offices,  plus the addition of general and administrative  expenses of companies
acquired.

     Depreciation and amortization  increased $670,000 reflecting an increase in
goodwill from acquisitions and depreciation on equipment purchased.

     Interest expense increased $590,000  reflecting interest on additional debt
funding the  acquisitions,  borrowings  under the  revolving  line of credit for
working capital purposes and an increase in interest rates.

     Earnings before income taxes increased by $6.6 million,  or 55.9%, to $18.5
million.  The provision  for income taxes for 2000 was $7.4 million  compared to
$4.7 million in 1999,  reflecting  effective  income tax rates of 39.7% for each
period.  Net earnings  increased by $4.0 million,  or 55.9%,  to $11.2  million.
Diluted  earnings per share increased 42.0% to $.71 from $.50 on a 6.6% increase
in the weighted-average shares and assumed conversions outstanding. The increase
in weighted average shares outstanding is attributable primarily to stock option
exercises  and the increase in the dilutive  effect of stock options as a result
of an increase in the average  market price of the Company's  stock  relative to
the underlying exercise prices of outstanding options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

     As of June 30,  2000,  the  Company  had $4.2  million in cash and  current
marketable securities and a current ratio of 1.8:1. Working capital increased by
$11.0 million to $38.1 million as of June 30, 2000, compared to $27.1 million as
of December  31,  1999.  The  increase in working  capital is  primarily  due to
working capital from the acquisition of eai Healthcare Staffing, working capital
generated from operations and exercise of stock options.

     Net accounts  receivable  were $74.8 million at June 30, 2000,  compared to
$65.8  million at December 31, 1999.  The number of day's average net revenue in
net receivables was 63.2 at June 30, 2000 compared to 65.6 at December 31, 1999.

     The  Company's  operating  cash  flows  constitute  its  primary  source of
liquidity and  historically  have been  sufficient to fund its working  capital,
capital  expenditure,  business  expansion  and debt service  requirements.  The
Company  expects  to meet  its  future  working  capital,  capital  expenditure,
business expansion and debt service  requirements from a combination of internal
sources and outside financing. The Company has a $40.0 million revolving line of
credit  with a balance  outstanding  as of June 30, 2000 of $16.0  million.  The
Company has commitments to significantly expand its borrowing capacity under its
bank  loans  and  expects  to close on a new loan  agreement  during  the  third
quarter.
