                            U.S. HOMECARE CORPORATION


              NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1        -   Unaudited Information

        In the opinion of the management of U.S. HomeCare Corporation (the
        "Company"), the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements
        contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals)
        necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position as of
        September 30, 1999 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
        for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998. These
        consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
        Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
        31, 1998.

        The results of operations for the nine month period ended September 30,
        1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
        the full year.

Note 2        -   Revenue Recognition

       The Company recognizes revenues as the services are performed. The
       Company receives retroactive increases and decreases to certain service
       rates. The Company records such amounts as changes in revenue when it is
       notified by the payors or when the amounts are estimable. Certain of the
       Company's revenues and related disbursements are subject to audit by
       third party payors; these revenues are accrued on an estimated basis in
       the period the related services are rendered. Net revenues are adjusted,
       as required in subsequent periods, based on final settlement.


                                      -7-

Note 3   -    Commitments and Contingencies

       Medicare revenues are based in part on cost reimbursement principles and
       per beneficiary limits as specified by the Interim Payment System ("IPS")
       and are subject to audit and retroactive adjustment by the respective
       third-party fiscal intermediaries. Included in accounts payable at
       September 30, 1999 and at December 31, 1998 was approximately $1.3
       million and $2.1 million, respectively, which are estimates of the net
       liability to be paid upon finalization of certain cost reports. In the
       opinion of management, additional retroactive adjustments, if any, are
       not expected to be material to the consolidated financial statements of
       the Company.

Note 4   -    Debt and Accounts Receivable Securitization

        The Company's Receivables Purchase and Servicing Agreement (the
        "Securitization Program"), allows the Company to sell for cash an
        undivided percentage ownership interest in a designated pool of eligible
        receivables, as defined. The Company relies, in part, on this accounts
        receivable financing to fund working capital for current operations. The
        maximum amount of cash advances (based on eligible accounts receivable)
        allowed under the program was $9.3 million as of September 30, 1999. The
        net proceeds from the sale of accounts receivable through the
        Securitization Program at September 30, 1999 and December 31, 1998 were
        $6.7 million. The Securitization Program expired during January 1999 and
        has been renewed monthly since that time.

        The Company's Revolving Line of Credit ("RLOC") and the Company's $3
        million subordinated credit facility also expired during January 1999.
        The RLOC and the subordinated credit facility have been renewed monthly
        through July 1999. On July 23, 1999, the lenders under the RLOC notified
        the Company that defaults currently exist under the RLOC and that,
        pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement among the RLOC lenders, the
        subordinated lender, the guarantor and the Company, the Company is not
        permitted to make any further payments on its subordinated debt.
        Subsequently, the subordinated lender notified the Company that it had
        decided to terminate ongoing discussions for further extension of the
        subordinated loan and was reserving all of its rights and remedies. The
        Company has been informed that the subordinated lender has made a demand
        for payment of the amount of the subordinated credit facility, under a
        guarantee from the Connecticut Development Authority, and that the
        outstanding amount of the loan was paid by the guarantor to the lender
        in late August 1999. The Company's senior lenders have continued to
        renew the RLOC on a month to month basis. In light of the above, all of
        the Company's outstanding debt has been classified as current
        liabilities at September 30, 1999. Both lenders noted above effective
        July 1999 are deferring the collection of interest on their respective
        debt facilities.

                            U.S. HOMECARE CORPORATION

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations


         This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements of a
forward-looking nature relating to future events or the future financial
performance of the Company. Such statements are only predictions and the actual
events or results may differ materially from the results discussed in the
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include those discussed below as well as those discussed in other
filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

R E S U L T S    O F   O P E R A T I O N S

Three Months Ended September 30, 1999
Compared With Three Months Ended September 30, 1998

     Net revenues reported for the three month period ended September 30, 1999
were $11,506,000 compared to $11,239,000 for the third quarter of 1998. The
increase is principally the result of $611,000 total revenue charge taken in the
third quarter of 1998 to offset 1996 Medicare Cost Report settlement charges.
Additionally, there were Medicare rate increases in 1999 in all of the Company's
certified locations.

     Cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues was 63.4% for the third
quarter of 1999, compared with 70.5% in the third quarter of 1998. The decrease
in cost of revenues is partially the result of the above described rate
increases which resulted in a higher gross margin and partially due to the fact
that 1998's margin was affected by negative prior period revenue adjustments.
The resulting gross profits were $4,200,000 and $3,321,000 or 36.5% and 29.5%,
for the quarters ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $3,557,000 in the third
quarter of 1999 as compared to $4,488,000 in the third quarter of 1998. The
decrease was due to a company wide reduction in branch staffing and other
expenses as well as from the consolidation of two branches, one in Connecticut
and one in New York City.

     Interest and other financing expenses were $605,000 for the third quarter
of 1999 compared to $433,000 in the third quarter of 1998. The increase was due
to greater borrowings as total bank debt was $17,275,000 at September 30, 1999
as compared to $15,061,000 at September 30, 1998. Amortization and depreciation
were $161,000 for the third quarter of 1999 as compared to $327,000 for the
third quarter of 1998.

     The Company's net operating losses eliminated any Federal income tax
liability. The income tax provision relates to state tax obligations.

                                      -10-
<PAGE>   11

     As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended September 30, the
Company had a net loss of $160,000 compared to a net loss of $1,965,000 for the
corresponding quarter in 1998.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1999
Compared With Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998

     Net revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 1999 were
$34,791,000 compared to $35,938,000 for the first nine months in 1998. The
decline is principally the result of $611,000 total revenue charge taken in the
third quarter of 1998 to offset 1996 Medicare Cost Report settlement charges.
This revenue loss was partially offset by Medicare rate increases in 1999 in all
of the Company's certified locations.

      Cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues was 64.2% for the first
nine months in 1999, compared with 67.4% in the first nine months in 1998. The
decrease in cost of revenue in 1999 is principally the result of the above
described rate increases, which resulted in a higher gross margin. The resulting
gross profits were $12,446,000 and $11,713,000 or 35.8% and 32.6%, for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses were $10,589,000 for the first
nine months in 1999, as compared to $12,103,000 for the first nine months in
1998. The net decrease was due to a company wide reduction in branch staffing
and other expenses as well as from the consolidation of two branches, one in
Connecticut and one in New York City.

   Interest and other financing expenses were $1,728,000 for the first nine
months in 1999 as compared to $1,246,000 for the first nine months in 1998.
Total bank debt was $17,275,000 at September 30, 1999 as compared to $15,061,000
at September 30, 1998.

    The Company's net operating loss carryforwards offset any Federal tax
liability. The income tax provision relates to state tax obligations.

    As a result of the foregoing, for the nine months ended September 30, 1999,
the Company had a net loss of $473,000 compared to net loss of $2,891,000 for
the corresponding periods in 1998.


FINANCIAL CONDITION

   As of September 30, 1999, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled
$304,000 compared to $267,000 at December 31, 1998. There were no funds
available from the Company's Revolving Line of Credit at September 30, 1999.

     The Company is not in compliance with the financial covenants of the RLOC
or its subordinated credit facility. Non-compliance with financial covenants
gives the lenders the right to declare the amounts outstanding under the
Company's credit facilities immediately due and payable. See Note 4 Notes to
Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12

     The Company's current credit facilities, together with cash generated from
operations, are not sufficient to fund the Company's operations through 1999
even if the credit facilities continue to be renewed. U.S. HomeCare will need to
raise equity capital and/or restructure its existing credit facilities to ensure
sufficient funding of its operations. U.S. HomeCare is currently discussing with
its current creditors and others such expanded and extended financing. There can
be no assurance that U.S. HomeCare will obtain such expanded and extended
financing. Failure to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect
on U.S. HomeCare's business, financial condition and results of operations. Both
the RLOC lender and the subordinated credit facility lender have deferred the
collection of interest on their respective debt facilities effective July 1999.


FACTORS AFFECTING THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS

     U.S. HomeCare's future business, financial condition and results of
operations are dependent on the Company's ability to successfully raise equity
capital and/or increase and extend or replace its existing credit facilities to
ensure sufficient funding of its operations.

     Additionally, U.S. HomeCare's future business and results of operations are
subject to the following risks: dependence on referral sources; dependence on
reimbursement by third party payors including Medicaid and Medicare; pricing
pressures which the health care industry is currently experiencing as a result
of market-driven reforms; complying with the federal and state regulations which
apply to home health care agencies; fundamental changes in the health care
industry which could be brought about by health care reform; competing
effectively with other home health care providers; attracting and retaining
senior management personnel and branch level management as well as qualified
health care professionals and paraprofessionals; and maintaining adequate
liability insurance. The failure to manage such risks successfully could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.

   In October 1999 the Company was notified by a customer that its annual
contract will not be renewed. Revenues for the nine months ended September 30,
1999 from this contract accounted for approximately 5.6% of total revenues for
the same period.

                              YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

     The inability of computers, software and other equipment utilizing
microprocessors to recognize and properly process data fields containing a
2-digit year is commonly referred to as the Year 2000 Compliance issue. As the
year 2000 approaches, such systems may be unable to accurately process certain
date-based information.

   U.S. HomeCare has identified all significant applications that will require
modification to ensure Year 2000 Compliance. Internal and external resources are
being used to make the required modifications and test Year 2000 Compliance.
U.S. HomeCare plans on completing the testing and upgrade of all significant
applications by December 31, 1999.

     U.S. HomeCare is also engaged in ongoing discussions with its significant
suppliers, large customers and financial institutions to determine that those
parties have appropriate plans to remediate Year 2000 issues where their systems
interface with the U.S. HomeCare's system or otherwise impact its operations.
U.S. HomeCare is assessing the extent to which its operations are vulnerable
should those organizations fail to properly remediate their computer systems,
and as of the date hereof is not able to quantify the impact on the Company, if
any, of failures of those organizations to remediate Year 2000 issues properly.

         The total cost to U.S. HomeCare of those Year 2000 Compliance
activities has not been and is not anticipated to be material to its financial
position or results of operations in any given year. These costs and the date on
which U.S. HomeCare plans to complete the Year 2000 modification and testing
processes are based on management's best estimates, which were derived utilizing
numerous assumptions of future events including the continued availability of
certain resources, third party modifications plans and other factors. However,
there can be no guarantee that these estimates will be achieved and actual
results could differ from those plans.

              Company's Annual Meeting and its intention to seek shareholders'
              approval to effect a 1-for-1,500 reverse stock split of the
              Company's Common Stock. The reverse stock split would reduce the
              number of shareholders of record of the Company below 300, which
              will enable the Company to deregister its Common Stock under the
              Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This proxy statement is under
