                     NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   _________

ITEM 1.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         1.    Preparation of Financial Statements
               -----------------------------------

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Cancer
         Treatment Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been
         prepared in  accordance  with the  instructions  of SEC Form 10-QSB and
         therefore do not include all information and footnotes  necessary for a
         fair  presentation of financial  position,  results of operations,  and
         cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
         The  financial  statements  should  be read  in  conjunction  with  the
         financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest
         SEC Form 10- KSB for the year  ended May 31,  1997.  In the  opinion of
         management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all
         adjustments  which  are  of a  normal,  recurring  nature  for  a  fair
         statement  of the  results  of  operations  for  such  interim  periods
         presented.  The results of operations for the three months ended August
         31, 1997,  are not  necessarily  indicative of the results which may be
         expected  for the entire  fiscal year.  The May 31, 1997,  consolidated
         balance sheet was derived from audited  financial  statements  but does
         not include all disclosures  required by generally accepted  accounting
         principles.

         2.    Contingencies
               -------------

         In conjunction with the current regulatory  scrutiny of the home health
         industry and, in particular the industry in South Florida,  the Company
         was randomly  selected for an on-site review of its Medicare  policies,
         procedures and medical records  related to its Medicare  certified home
         health agency in District 10, Broward  County,  Florida.  The review is
         being  conducted  by   representatives   of  the  Health  Care  Finance
         Administration,  the  Office of Audit of the  Office  of the  Inspector
         General for the Department of Health and Human Services and the Florida
         Agency for Health Care Administration.  The results of this review have
         not been concluded. The ultimate outcome of this review and its impact,
         if any, on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and
         cash flows cannot be determined at this time.

         As a general  partner,  the Company is jointly and severally liable for
         liabilities   concerning   the  actions  of  Palm  Beach   Radiotherapy
         Associates,  Ltd. ("Palm Beach"), Ocean Radiation Oncology Center, Inc.
         ("Ocean") and Logan Oncology Care  Associates,  Ltd.  ("Logan") and has
         guaranteed  certain  liabilities  of these  partnerships  amounting  to
         $2,442,000 at August 31, 1997.  Accordingly,  the Company could be held
         responsible  for any and all  liabilities  arising  from the actions of
         such partnerships.

         The Company is involved in several  legal  proceedings  arising  from a
         dispute  between the Company,  as managing  general partner of the Palm
         Beach  Partnership,  and the other  general  partner  of the Palm Beach
         Partnership.  The dispute  relates to the decision of the other general
         partner to conduct  its  radiation  therapy  business  through  its own
         affiliates  rather  than  through  the Palm Beach  Partnership.  In the
         opinion of management, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to
         these  actions  will not  materially  affect  the  financial  position,
         results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

         3.    Reclassifications
               -----------------

         Certain amounts have been reclassified in the financial  statements for
         the  three-month  period  ended  August  31,  1996,  to  conform to the
         presentation  in the financial  statements for the  three-month  period
         ended August 31, 1997.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S   DISCUSSION   AND  ANALYSIS  OF  CONSOLIDATED   FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        1.    Results Of Operations
              ---------------------

         Comparison  of the Three Months  Ended  August 31,  1997,  to the Three
         -----------------------------------------------------------------------
         Months Ended August 31, 1996
         ----------------------------

        Revenues for the  three-month  period  ended August 31, 1997,  increased
$655,000  or 16% over  the  three-month  period  ended  August  31,  1996,  from
$4,099,000  in  1996  to  $4,754,000  in  1997.   This  increase was principally
attributable to the  increase in revenues from home health and nursing  services
as discussed below.

        Patient service  revenues are derived  principally  from the home health
        and nursing  service  operations of Med Tech Services of South  Florida,
        Inc.  ("Med  Tech"),  Leader  Health Care Center,  Inc.  ("Leader")  and
        Southern Cross Home Health, Inc.  ("Southern Cross").  Approximately 93%
        of net patient service  revenues for 1997 and 1996 were derived from Med
        Tech for services provided to home healthcare  patients who are Medicare
        beneficiaries. Med Tech participates in the Medicare program under which
        services rendered to Medicare program beneficiaries are reimbursed based
        on cost-reimbursement  principles. Such revenues increased $580,000 from
        $3,476,000 in 1996 to $4,056,000 in 1997 primarily due to an increase in
        visits performed by Med Tech from approximately 35,000 visits in 1996 to
        approximately  37,500  visits  in  1997 and  an increase in the Medicare
        reimbursement  rate  from   approximately  $88  per  visit  in  1996  to
        approximately $98 per visit in 1997.

        Other  revenues,  which  consist  principally  of  billing,  collection,
        management and consulting revenues and interest income, increased $3,000
        from  $379,000 in 1996 to $382,000 in 1997 as a result of an increase in
        revenues from the Company's  billing  contracts  offset by a decrease in
        interest income due to the maturing of notes receivable.

        The Company receives payment for its services from various sources.  The
following summarizes the Company's revenues by payor sources:

        Changes in the  current  mix of payors,  specifically  those which would
        result in a decrease  in the  percentage  of revenues  from  Medicare or
        third-party payors, may adversely effect the Company's future results of
        operations.

      Operating  expenses  for the  three-month  period  ended  August 31, 1997,
increased  $704,000 or 17% over the  three-month  period  ended August 31, 1996,
from  $4,071,000  in 1996 to  $4,775,000  in 1997.  This  increase was primarily
attributable to the following:


      Direct cost of patient  services,  which includes  primarily payroll costs
      and contracted medical services,  increased $160,000 or 9% from $1,847,000
      in 1996 to $2,007,000  in 1997.  The majority of these costs relate to the
      Company's  home  health  operations.  On a per visit  basis,  these  costs
      increased  from  $50.89  per visit in 1996 to $51.85 in 1997.  During  the
      latter part of fiscal 1997 and continuing  through the first quarter ended
      August  31,  1997,  the  Company,   in   anticipation  of  future  growth,
      significantly  increased  its base of clinical employees directly involved
      in rendering  patient  services in  anticipation  of future  growth and to
      lessen the Company's  reliance on contracting for such services.  This has
      resulted in a higher per visit cost for the quarter  ended August 31, 1997
      over the same period in 1996. The Company believes the average direct cost
      per visit for patient  services will decrease in the future as the Company
      continues to increase the number of patients it services.

      General  and  administrative  expenses,  which  include  the  general  and
      administrative  expenses of all of the Company's  subsidiaries,  increased
      $533,000  or 26%  from  $2,042,000  in 1996 to  $2,575,000  in  1997.  The
      majority  of these costs are  attributable  to the  Company's  home health
      operation.  On a per visit basis,  these costs  increased  from $32.71 per
      visit in 1996 to $41.11 in 1997. During the latter part of fiscal 1997 and
      continuing  through the first quarter ended August 31, 1997,  the Company,
      in  anticipation  of future  growth,  significantly  increased its base of
      administrative  clinical  employees,  to a level to support  significantly
      more visits  than the Company  performed  during the current  period.  The
      company believes the average cost per visit for general and administrative
      expenses will decrease in the future as the Company  continues to increase
      the number of patients it services.


      2.      Liquidity and Capital Resources
              -------------------------------

      As of August 31,  1997,  the Company had  working  capital of  $4,300,000,
including  cash of $708,500,  as compared with working  capital of $4,519,000 at
May 31, 1997. The decrease was primarily  attributable  to a decrease in cash of
$616,000,  as discussed below, and increases in current  liabilities of $484,000
offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $808,000.

      During the quarter ended August 31, 1997,  cash decreased  $616,000.  Cash
used  in  operating  activities  amounted  to  $329,000  in  1997,  compared  to
$1,314,000  in 1996.  The  principal  components  resulting  in a use of cash in
operating  activities  in 1997,  were an  increase  in  accounts  receivable  of
$808,000  offset by an  increase in  accounts  payable  and accrued  payroll and
related  benefits of  $487,000.  The increase in accounts  receivable,  accounts
payable and  accrued  expenses  is the result of the  increase  in revenues  and
personnel of Med Tech as discussed above.  The Company's  current ratio (current
assets over current  liabilities) was 3.81 for 1997 and 5.32 for 1996. Cash used
in  investing  activities  was  $234,000 in 1997,  compared to cash  provided by
investing activities of $60,000 in 1996 and was primarily the result of advances
to  partnerships  and  ventures of $304,000  offset by  collections  under notes
receivable of $100,000.  Cash used in financing  activities was $54,000 in 1997,
compared to cash  provided by financing  activities  of $693,000 in 1996 and was
primarily  the  result  of  payments  against  the  Company's  revolving  credit
agreements.
