              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                               September 30, 1998

                                   (Unaudited)

1.       Basis of Presentation:

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
         of Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Pediatrix")
         presented herein do not include all disclosures required by generally
         accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
         the opinion of management, these financial statements include all
         adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary
         for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods.

         The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September
         30, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations
         to be expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. The interim
         condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
         conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes
         thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with
         the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 1998.

2.       Business Acquisitions:

         During the first nine months of 1998, the Company completed the
         acquisition of thirteen physician group practices. Total consideration
         for these acquisitions approximated $79 million in cash and 5,455,334
         shares of stock in a subsidiary of the Company.

         The Company has accounted for the acquisitions using the purchase
         method of accounting and the excess of cost over fair value of net
         assets acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25
         years. The results of operations of the acquired practices have been
         included in the consolidated financial statements from the dates of
         acquisition.

         The following unaudited pro forma information combines the consolidated
         results of operations of the Company and the physician group practices
         acquired during 1997 and 1998 as if the acquisitions had occurred on
         January 1, 1997:

</TABLE>

         The pro forma results do not necessarily represent results which would
         have occurred if the acquisitions had taken place at the beginning of
         the period, nor are they indicative of the results of future combined
         operations.

4.       Net Income Per Share:

         Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the
         weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
         Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by
         the weighted average number of common and potential common shares
         outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the
         dilutive effect of outstanding options calculated using the treasury
         stock method.

5.       Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued:

         During 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130,
         "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires that all items
         recognized under accounting standards as components of comprehensive
         income be reported in the financial statements. The Company's
         comprehensive income was as follows:

6.       Contingencies:

         During the ordinary course of business, the Company has become a party
         to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, most of which
         involve claims of medical malpractice and are generally covered by
         insurance. These lawsuits are not expected to result in judgments which
         would exceed professional liability insurance coverage, and, therefore
         will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results
         of operations, financial position or liquidity, notwithstanding any
         possible insurance recovery.

the Company provides services as a result of acquisitions. Same unit patient
service revenue increased $2.5 million, or 7.4%, for the three months ended
September 30, 1998. Same units are those units at which the Company provided
services for the entire period for which the percentage is calculated and the
entire comparable period.

         Salaries and benefits increased $8.4 million, or 38.7% to $30.3 million
for the three months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $21.9 million
for the same period in 1997. Of this $8.4 million increase, $5.7 million, or
67.9%, was attributable to hiring new physicians, primarily to support new unit
growth, and the remaining $2.7 million was primarily attributable to increased
support staff and resources added in the areas of nursing, management and
billing and reimbursement. Supplies and other operating expenses increased $1.1
million, or 44.9% to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998,
as compared with $2.5 million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result
of new units. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.1 million,
or 85.6% to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 1998, as
compared with $1.3 million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of
amortization of goodwill in connection with acquisitions.

         Income from operations increased $4.3 million, or 48.1%, to $13.1
million for the three months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $8.8
million for the same period in 1997. The increase in income from operations was
primarily due to increased volume, principally from acquisitions.

         The Company earned investment income of approximately $38,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with approximately $422,000
for the same period in 1997. The decrease in investment income resulted
primarily from the use of funds in connection with acquisitions.

         The effective income tax rate was approximately 40% for the three month
periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

         Net income increased 38.7% to $7.6 million for the three months ended
September 30, 1998, as compared with $5.5 million for the same period in 1997.
Net income as a percentage of net patient service revenue decreased to 15.5% for
the three months ended September 30, 1998, compared to 16.0% for the same period
in 1997 primarily as a result of a decrease in cash and investments and an
increase in borrowings.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1998 as Compared to Nine Months Ended 
September 30, 1997

         The Company reported net patient service revenue of $133.3 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $92.1 million for the
same period in 1997, a growth rate of 44.8%. Of this $41.2 million increase,
$37.3 million, or 90.5% was attributable to new units at which the Company
provides services primarily as a result of acquisitions. Same unit patient
service revenue, increased $3.9 million, or 5.5%, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998. Same units are those units at which the Company provided
services for the entire period for which the percentage is calculated and the
entire comparable period.

         Salaries and benefits increased $23.2 million, or 39.2% to $82.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $59.3
million for the same period in 1997. Of this $23.2 million increase, $17.1
million, or 73.7%, was attributable to hiring new physicians, primarily to
support new unit growth, and the remaining $6.1 million was primarily
attributable to increased support staff and resources added in the areas of
nursing, management and billing and reimbursement. Supplies and other operating
expenses increased $2.8 million, or 39.5% to $9.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $6.9 million for the same period in
1997, primarily as a result of new units. Depreciation and amortization expense
increased by $3.1 million, or 101.5% to $6.2 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, as compared with $3.1 million for the same period in 1997,
primarily as a result of amortization of goodwill in connection with
acquisitions.

         Income from operations increased approximately $12.2 million, or 53.4%,
to $35.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with
$22.8 million for the same period in 1997. The increase in income from
operations was primarily due to increased volume, principally from acquisitions.

         The Company earned investment income of approximately $529,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 1998, as compared with $1.7 million for the same
period in 1997. The decrease in investment income resulted primarily from the
use of funds in connection with acquisitions.

         The effective income tax rate was approximately 40% for the nine month
periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997.

         Net income increased 43.1% to $20.9 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 1998, as compared with $14.6 million for the same period in 1997.
Net income as a percentage of net patient service revenue decreased to 15.6% for
the nine months ended September 30, 1998, compared to 15.8% for the same period
in 1997, primarily as a result of a decrease in cash and investments and an
increase in borrowings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


         As of September 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of
approximately $14.7 million, a decrease of $39.2 million from the working
capital of $53.9 million available at December 31, 1997. The decrease is
principally a result of funds utilized for acquisitions during the first nine
months of 1998, offset by cash generated from operations.

         The Company anticipates that funds generated from operations together
with cash and funds available under its $75 million credit facility, will be
sufficient to meet its working capital requirements and finance any required
capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

Year 2000

         The Company has conducted a comprehensive review of its computer 
systems to identify the systems that could be affected by the transition to the
year 2000 and has developed an implementation plan to resolve any related
issues. The Year 2000 problem is the result of computer programs being written
using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the
Company's programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a major
system failure or miscalculations. The Company presently believes that, by
modifying and upgrading its existing software, the transition to the year 2000
will not pose significant operational problems. The Company has not had any
discussions with its payors to determine the status of their systems. However,
if the Company or its vendors or payors do not make the modifications and
conversions required on a timely basis it could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
           -----------------
 
           During the ordinary course of business, the Company has become a
           party to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, most
           of which involve claims of medical malpractice and are generally
           covered by insurance. These lawsuits are not expected to result in
           judgments which would exceed professional liability insurance
           coverage, and, therefore will not have a material impact on the
           Company's consolidated results of operations, financial position or
           liquidity, notwithstanding any possible insurance recovery.

           During 1998, the Internal Revenue Service concluded its examination
           of the Company for the tax years ended December 31, 1992, 1993 and
           1994. The resolution of the examination did not have a material
           effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of
           operations.

Item 2.    Changes in Securities
           ---------------------

           Not applicable.

           Not applicable.

Item 5.    Other Information
           -----------------

           Rule 14a-4, adopted June 29, 1998, included certain changes with
           respect to a company's use of its discretionary proxy voting
           authority for proposals to be considered at annual meetings of
           shareholders. Pursuant to the Rule, if a proposal by a shareholder is
           not received at least 45 days prior to the month and day of mailing
           of a company's prior year's proxy statement (or by an earlier or
           later date established by an overriding advance notice provision in
           the company's charter or bylaws), then management proxies will be
           allowed to use their discretionary voting authority when the proposal
           is raised at the annual meeting, without discussion of the matter.
           The proxy statement for the Company's 1998 Annual Meeting of the
           Shareholders held on May 18, 1998, was mailed to its shareholders on
           or about April 6, 1998.
