NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
     The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30,
1997, and condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and 1996 are unaudited. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair
presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented have
been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1996 is
derived from the Lincare Holdings Inc. (the "Company") audited balance sheet as
of that date.
 
NOTE 2 -- BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
 
     During the nine months ended September 30, 1997, the Company acquired, in
unrelated acquisitions, the stock of four companies and certain assets of ten
companies. Each acquisition was accounted for as a purchase. The results of the
acquired companies are included in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations since the respective date of acquisition.
 
     The aggregate cost of these acquisitions was as follows:

     Net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1997, increased by
$25,139,000 (or 28.1%) compared with the three months ended September 30, 1996,
and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, increased $70,111,000 (or
27.6%) compared with the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Approximately
$11,487,000 of the net revenue increase for the three months ended September 30,
1997 and $35,173,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, is
attributable to acquisitions, while $13,652,000 for the three months ended
September 30, 1997, and $34,938,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
reflects internal growth.
 
     On August 5, 1997, the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 ("BBA") was signed into
law. The legislation, among other things, reduces Medicare expenditures by $115
billion over five years. The BBA reduces Medicare payment amounts for oxygen and
oxygen equipment furnished after January 1, 1998, to 75 percent of the fee
schedule amounts in effect during 1997. Payment amounts for oxygen and oxygen
equipment furnished after January 1, 1999, and each subsequent year are reduced
to 70 percent of the fee schedule amounts in effect during 1997.
 
     The BBA freezes the Consumer Price Index (U.S. urban average) update for
covered items of durable medical equipment for each of the years 1998 through
2002 while limiting fees for parenteral and enteral nutrients, supplies and
equipment to 1995 reasonable charge levels over the same period. The BBA reduces
payment amounts for covered drugs and biologicals to 95 percent of the average
wholesale price of such covered items for each of the years 1998 through 2002.
 
     The BBA authorizes the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct
up to five competitive bidding demonstration projects for the acquisition of
durable medical equipment and requires that one such project be established for
oxygen and oxygen equipment. Each demonstration project is to be operated over a
three-year period and is to be conducted in not more than three competitive
acquisition areas. The BBA also includes provisions designated to reduce health
care fraud and abuse including a surety bond requirement for durable medical
equipment providers.
 
     On August 10, 1993, Congress passed the Omnibus Reconciliation Act of 1993
("OBRA 93"). The OBRA 93 legislation provided for a consumer price index update,
effective January 1, 1997, of approximately 2.8% on Medicare products and
services. No additional impact from OBRA 93 is expected for 1997.
 
     Cost of goods and services as a percentage of net revenues was 14.7% for
the three months ended September 30, 1997, compared with 15.5% for the three
months ended September 30, 1996. Cost of goods and services as a percentage of
net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was 15.1% compared
with 15.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996.
 
     Operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues was 21.1% for the three
months ended September 30, 1997, compared with 21.4% for the three months ended
September 30, 1996. Operating expenses as a
 
                                        7
<PAGE>   8
 
percentage of net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, was
21.2% compared with 21.4% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996. This
improvement was primarily due to the Company's successful integration of
acquired businesses into its existing locations. The company has been able to
maintain a cost structure that, with increases in net revenue, allows the
Company to spread its overhead over the larger base of revenue, resulting in
improvements in operating income.
 
     Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net
revenues decreased to 20.1% for the three months ended September 30, 1997,
compared with 20.4% for the three months ended September 30, 1996, and 20.2% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared with 20.4% for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. The improvement is attributable to the
Company's continued ability to leverage its infrastructure, with selling,
general and administrative expenses increasing by 26.3% and 25.9% while revenues
grew by 28.1% and 27.6%, respectively, for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997.
 
     Amortization expense for the three months ended September 30, 1997,
increased to $3,580,000 compared with $3,266,000 for the three month period
ending September 30, 1996. Amortization expense increased to $10,643,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared with $9,586,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. This increase is attributable to the
amortization of intangible assets acquired during 1996 and the first nine months
of 1997.
 
     Operating income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1997,
increased to $38,498,000 and $107,318,000, respectively, compared with
$28,787,000 and $81,506,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996. The increases in operating income are attributable to the continued
internal and acquisition revenue growth and efforts to control costs.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
     Net cash provided from operating activities was $90,170,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, compared with $80,615,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 1996.
 
     Net cash used in investing and financing activities was $88,279,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, compared with $74,060,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. Activity in the nine months ended September 30,
1997, included the Company's investment of $48,114,000 in business acquisitions,
investment in capital equipment of $37,355,000, the borrowing of $68,000,000
from its revolving line of credit, payments of $69,000,000 on the revolving line
of credit and payments of $5,285,000 related to deferred acquisition
obligations. The company believes that internally generated funds, together with
funds that may be borrowed under such credit facility, will be sufficient to
meet the Company's anticipated capital requirements over the foreseeable future.
 
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
     Statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not based on historical
