ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
- -----------------------------

Fiscal 1997 - First Quarter

On July 31, 1996, The Company acquired Medisco Pharmacies, Inc., located in San
Bernardino, California for $5,291,000 in cash plus the assumption of $2,510,000
in liabilities and future payments totalling $1,150,000.

Fiscal 1996

On November 3, 1995, the Company acquired the institutional pharmacy business
of Brentview Clinical Pharmacy, located in Los Angeles, California for
$3,206,000 in cash plus the assumption of $45,000 in liabilities and future
contingent payments based on the achievement of future profitability
objectives.

On July 6, 1995, the Company acquired the infusion therapy business of Home
Intravenous Care, Inc., located in Loveland, Colorado, for $2,325,000 in cash
plus the assumption of $105,000 in liabilities and future contingent payments
based on the achievement of certain future profitability objectives.

The above acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting with the assets recorded a their estimated fair market values at the
date of acquisition.  The estimated fair market values of pharmacy contracts
acquired are amortized over the expected remaining lives of 10 years including
estimated contract renewals.  Goodwill, representing the excess of acquisition
costs over the fair market value of acquired assets, is amortized over 40
years.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

The Company meets its ongoing capital requirements and operating needs from
operating cash flows.  Cash flows provided by operating activities were
$4,579,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to $1,900,000 in the
year earlier period.  Operating cash flows not used to acquire pharmacies or
invest in new property and equipment is held in the form of a receivable due
from Manor Care.  The balance due is classified as due from parent on the
consolidated balance sheets and totalled approximately $14,800,000 at August
31, 1996.

Acquired businesses were paid for with operating cash flows.  The purchase
contracts for acquisitions generally stipulate future payments contingent upon
achievement of future profitability objectives.

In connection with the acquisition of Medisco, Vitalink made payments of
$1,144,000 in August, 1996 to pay-off certain liabilities assumed.

Effective June 1, 1995, the Company assumed the responsibility of billing the
revenues and collecting the receivables derived from the private pay residents
of Manor Care facilities.  Previously, the Company was paid monthly for these
services by Manor Care which in turn billed and collected the receivables from
private pay residents.  The Company had paid Manor Care a 3% administrative fee
on the related revenues for this service.  The increase in accounts receivable
during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 is primarily the result of this change.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)
- -------------------------------------------

On June 1, 1991, the Company entered into an "Intercompany Debt and Credit
Agreement" with Manor Care, Inc. pursuant to which Manor Care, Inc. provides
the Company with a line of credit of $10,000,000.  To date, the line of credit
has not been utilized and the entire $10,000,000 balance on the line of credit
remains available to the Company.  The line of credit and approximately
$15,200,000 of cash and amounts due from the Company's parent are available for
general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions of pharmacies, the
internal development of additional pharmacies, working capital and capital
expenditures.

The Company believes that cash generated from operations, the $10,000,000 line
of credit and the remaining amounts due from the Company's parent will be
adequate to meet the Company's foreseeable capital and other cash requirements.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Net revenues for the three months ended August 31, 1996, were $39,373,000, an
increase of $7,551,000 or 23.7% over the same period last year.  The increase
in net revenues was principally attributable to increases in the number of
nursing facility beds serviced by the Company and the continuing rise in
patient acuity levels which results in increased revenues per bed.  At August
31, 1996, the Company provided services to approximately 52,900 nursing
facility beds, including 19,800 Manor Care beds and 33,100 non-affiliate beds.
At August 31, 1995, the Company provided services to approximately 42,900 beds,
including 16,400 Manor Care beds and 26,500 non-affiliate beds.

Increases in beds serviced were achieved through acquisitions and marketing
efforts to customers in existing markets and service to new and existing
affiliate facilities.

Gross profit for the three months ended August 31, 1996 was $19,368,000, an
increase of $3,519,000 or 22.2% over the same period last year.   The gross
profit margin was 49.2% for the three months ended August 31, 1996, compared to
49.8% for the same period last year.

Operating expenses increased $2,624,000 to $13,403,000 or 34.0% of net revenues
in the first quarter of 1997 compared to $10,779,000 or 33.9% of net revenues
in the first quarter of 1996. Payroll and selling, general and administrative
expenses increased to support the growth in beds serviced.

The decrease in interest income and other, net, which consists principally of
interest earned on the balance due from parent, is primarily due to the
slightly lower average balance due from parent and a slightly lower interest
rate.  The interest earned on the loan is equal to the average 3-month Treasury
Bill rate plus 100 basis points.
