                           PHC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                 MARCH 31, 2000

NOTE A - THE COMPANY

     PHC, Inc. and its wholly owned  subsidiaries  (the "Company") is a national
health care company  specializing in behavioral  health  services  including the
treatment of substance  abuse,  which includes  alcohol and drug  dependency and
related  disorders and the provision of psychiatric  services.  The Company also
provides management,  administrative and online behavioral health services.  The
Company primarily operates under three business segments:

     (1) BEHAVIORAL  HEALTH  TREATMENT  SERVICES,  including two substance abuse
treatment facilities:  Highland Ridge Hospital, located in Salt Lake City, Utah;
and Mount  Regis  Center,  located  in Salem,  Virginia,  and eight  psychiatric
treatment  locations  which include Harbor Oaks Hospital,  a 64-bed  psychiatric
hospital  located in New  Baltimore,  Michigan and seven  outpatient  behavioral
health locations (two in Las Vegas, Nevada operating as Harmony Healthcare,  one
in  Shawnee  Mission,  Kansas  operating  as Total  Concept  and four  locations
operating  as Pioneer  Counseling  Center in the Detroit, Michigan  metropolitan
area);

     (2)  BEHAVIORAL  HEALTH  ADMINISTRATIVE  SERVICES,  including  delivery  of
management, administrative and help line services. PHC, Inc. provides management
and administrative services for its behavioral health treatment subsidiaries and
BSC-NY,  Inc., a subsidiary of PHC, Inc., provides management services on behalf
of  physician  owned  behavioral  health  practices in the greater New York City
metropolitan  area.  Pioneer  Development and Support Services ("PDSS") provides
help line services primarily through contracts with major railroads; and

     (3) BEHAVIORAL  HEALTH ONLINE SERVICES,  which includes  behavioral  health
education, training and products for the behavioral health professional, through
its website behavioralhealthonline.com.

     In June,  1998 the Company's sub acute  long-term care  facility,  Franvale
Nursing and Rehabilitation  Center, in Braintree,  Massachusetts was closed in a
state  receivership  action which was  precipitated  when the Company caused the
owner of the Franvale facility, Quality Care Centers of Massachusetts,  Inc., to
institute a proceeding under Chapter 11 of the Federal  Bankruptcy Code. The net
assets and liabilities of this facility are shown as discontinued  operations in
the  accompanying  financial  statements.  The  liquidation  of the  assets  and
liabilities of Franvale may result in a non-cash  financial  statement gain. The
recognition  of any  gain  has  been  deferred  until  final  resolution  of all
contingent liabilities.

NOTE B - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Item 310 of
Regulation  S-B.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring accruals)  considered necessary for a fair presentation
have been included.  Operating  results for the nine months ended March 31, 2000
are not necessarily  indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending June 30, 2000. The accompanying  financial  statements  should be read in
conjunction  with  the June  30,  1999  consolidated  financial  statements  and
footnotes  thereto included in the Company's 10-KSB filed on October 13, 1999 as
amended on October 20, 1999 and November 29, 1999.

                                       7

NOTE C - RESTATEMENT OF MARCH 31, 1999 FINANCIAL INFORMATION

     In December  1998 the Company  issued  $500,000 in  convertible  debentures
together  with  25,000  warrants  and  105,000  warrants  in lieu  of  cash  for
professional  fees.  In error the value of these  warrants was not charged as an
expense  during the December  31, 1998 and March 31, 1999  quarters as required.
The  Company  has amended  the  December  31, 1998 and March 31, 1999  financial
information to reflect the  Black-Scholes  value of these warrants as additional
expense of $69,357 and $31,400 respectively.

     The Company also amended the December  31, 1998  financial  information  to
reverse the recognition of part of the gain related to the liquidation of assets
of Quality Care Centers of  Massachusetts,  Inc.  having  determined that it was
more appropriate to defer  recognition of any gain until final resolution of all
contingent  liabilities.  The accompanying balance sheet includes  approximately
$2,600,000 in current  liabilities and $545,000 in deferred  expenses related to
the closing of the Quality Care Centers of Massachusetts facility, Franvale. The
deferred expenses are from various  litigations  brought against the subsidiary,
which  except for the  Massachusetts  litigation,  have been settled and related
legal costs.  The Company  anticipates  that the final case  pending,  which was
filed by the State of  Massachusetts,  will result in  additional  costs of less
than the reserves available when all cases are settled.  Based on existing facts
and conditions we anticipate  that the  elimination of this liability may result
in a non-cash  gain and an increase in net worth.  (See our 10-QSB for  December
31, 1999 filed with the commission on February 14, 2000, "Part II, Item 1, Legal
Proceedings" for details regarding the case filed by the State of Massachusetts)

NOTE D - RECEIVABLE DUE FROM UNRELATED PROFESSIONAL CORPORATION

     On November 1, 1996,  BSC-NY,  Inc. ("BSC"),  merged with Behavioral Stress
Centers,  Inc.,  a  provider  of  management  and  administrative   services  to
psychotherapy  and  psychological   practices  in  the  greater  New  York  City
Metropolitan  Area. In connection  with the merger,  the Company  issued 150,000
shares of PHC,  Inc.  Class A common  stock to the former  owners of  Behavioral
Stress  Centers,  Inc. Also, in connection  with the merger,  another entity was
formed,  Shliselberg Physician Services,  P.C. formerly Perlow Physicians,  P.C.
("Shliselberg"),  to acquire  the assets of the  medical  practices  theretofore
serviced by Behavioral Stress Centers, Inc. The Company advanced Shliselberg the
funds to acquire those assets and at March 31, 2000 Shliselberg owed the Company
$4,374,178 which includes in addition to acquisition  costs,  management fees of
approximately $2,350,927 and interest on the advances of approximately $868,770.
During fiscal 1998 the Company  established a reserve against this receivable in
the amount of  $382,000.  The Company  increased  the reserve to $782,000 in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 and to $1,162,287  through March 31, 2000. It is
expected  that  collections  will be received  over the next  several  years and
accordingly,  these amounts have been classified as noncurrent.  The Company has
no ownership interest in Shliselberg.

NOTE E - BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

     The Company's  behavioral  health treatment  services have similar economic
characteristics,  services, patients and clients.  Accordingly,  all  behavioral
health treatment  services are reported on an aggregate basis under one segment.
The Company's segments are more fully described in Note A above. Residual income
and expenses from closed facilities are included in the administrative  services
segment. The following summarizes the Company's segment data:

ITEM 2.     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

                           PHC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net patient care revenue increased 27.9% to $5,541,406 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from  $4,333,651  for the three months ended March 31, 1999
and  3.6% to  $13,599,089  for  the  nine  months  ended  March  31,  2000  from
$13,125,581  for the nine months ended March 31, 1999.  This increase in revenue
is due to a 29.8%  increase  in  census  in our in  patient  facilities  and the
expansion of treatment services at our chemical dependency facility in Salt Lake
City Utah to include dual  diagnosis  patients.  During this period of increased
inpatient  census,  we also  experienced a  substantial  increase in out patient
visits.  The quarter ended March 31, 2000 also provided more services to private
pay patients and fewer  patients  paid under lower rate  contracts  than in most
prior periods providing for a more profitable payor mix.

     Patient care expenses  increased  14.8% to $2,485,483  for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 from  $2,165,868  for the three months ended March 31, 1999
due to the increased costs of salaries,  drugs, laboratory tests, food and other
hospital  supplies  related to the  increase  in census.  Although  there was an
increase in patient  revenues  for the nine months ended March 31, 2000 over the
same period in 1999, we experienced  small decrease in patient care expenses for
the  nine  months  ended  March  31,  2000  due  to  recent   streamlining   and
consolidation  of  operations  in  prior  quarters.   Administrative   expenses,
excluding bad debt and website expenses,  have also increased 4.9% to $1,895,836
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 from  $1,808,024  for the three months
ended March 31,  1999.  This  increase is primarily  due to increased  corporate
marketing expenses and increased consultant and maintenance costs related to our
Salt Lake City Utah  facility.  Administrative  costs for the nine months  ended
March 31, 2000 decreased 10% to $5,373,104  from  $5,967,518 for the nine months
ended  March  31,  1999.  This  decrease  in  expenses  is also a result  of the
reengineering and streamlining of all operations.

     Website  expenses  include all costs  relevant to the  development  and the
operations  of  the  Behavioralhealthonline.com   website.  These  expenses  are
expected to continue to increase  while the site is in development  stages.  The
site is not expected to produce revenues until the final quarter of fiscal 2000.
We are currently pursuing equity financing for the site development. The revenue
of the  website  will  include  only  commissions  on the sale of  products  and
services. A corresponding liability will be recorded at the time of the sale for
the cost of the product or service due to the provider.  This is necessary since
the full  amount of the sale will be  charged to the end user and  processed  by
Behavioralhealthonline.com.

     Interest  expense  decreased  40.6% to $601,071  for the nine months  ended
March 31, 2000 from  $1,013,046  for the nine months ended March 31, 1999.  This
decrease is primarily due to one time  interest  charges on debt renewal and the
charge of the black  scholes  value of warrants  issued in  connection  with the
renewal of the debt in the last fiscal year.

     Provision for taxes represents State income taxes. The company has recorded
no provision  for Federal  income taxes for the nine months ended March 31, 2000
and 1999 due to available net operating loss carry forwards.

     Preferred stock dividends increased to $533,318 for the quarter ended March
31, 2000 from $62,547 for the quarter ended March 31, 1999.  The increase in the
price of the class A common  stock in January  prompted  the  conversion  of all
outstanding  preferred stock. This preferred stock carried a minimum  conversion
price of $2.00 with an additional  dividend due for the  difference  between the
actual conversion price and the minimum conversion price.  Dividends recorded in
the  quarter  ended March 31,  2000 of  $530,252  were a result of this  minimum
conversion price and were paid in restricted class A common stock.


                                       10
<PAGE>

     We continue to view  receivables  most  conservatively  by maintaining  the
ratio of reserves  for bad debt to  receivables  at  approximately  32% which is
evidenced  by a 14.7%  increase in bad debt  expense  for the nine months  ended
March 31,  2000 over the same  period  last  year.  This  amount is based on the
current  age of  accounts  receivable  and is  expected  to decrease as our more
aggressive  collection  practices  decrease  the  number  of  days  our  patient
receivables  remain  unpaid.  In addition to  decreasing  the number of days our
patient receivables remain  outstanding,  our more timely follow-up practice has
resulted in fewer accounts  charged to bad debt due to untimely filing of claims
since errors on claims are identified and corrected in a more timely manner than
in prior years. The $639,000 shown as non-current patient accounts receivable is
presented at net  realizable  value.  These amounts are due from  individuals in
payment for treatment on which extended payment plans have been arranged and are
being met.

     During the nine months  ended March 31, 2000 we  increased  deferred  costs
related  to  discontinued  operations  by  $327,335  to  $546,778.  These  costs
represent  additional  legal fees paid and  accrued  as a result of the  ongoing
Quality Care Centers of Massachusetts litigation and investigation.  This amount
will be offset by this discontinued  segments liabilities of $2,641,537 when the
bankruptcy  proceedings  of that  subsidiary  have been  finalized and result in
increased equity in that amount.

     We also  increased  other assets by 28.7% to $100,849 as of March 31, 2000.
This is directly  related to increases in deposits on expanded  leased  property
and    deferred     costs    related    to    the    equity     financing    for
Behavioralhealthonline.com.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     A  significant  factor in the liquidity and cash flow of the Company is the
timely  collection  of its accounts  receivable.  Net accounts  receivable  from
patient  care  increased  during  the  quarter  ended  March  31,  2000 by 4.8%,
approximately  $335,381.  The Company  continues to closely monitor its accounts
receivable  balances and is working to reduce amounts due consistent with growth
in revenues.

     During the quarter ended March 31, 2000 the Company met its cash flow needs
through  ongoing  accounts  receivable  financing  and  through  debt and equity
transactions as follows:

     During the quarter ended March 31, 2000 the Company issued 1,221,860 shares
of class A common  stock in exchange  for the  remaining  781 shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock and $533,318 in dividends.

     In January 2000 the Company issued 13,572 shares of class A common stock in
conjunction with a consultant agreement.

     In March 2000 the Company  issued  warrants to  purchase  10,000  shares of
class A common stock  exercisable at $1.50 in exchange for $10,000 in consultant
services provided to Behavioral Health Online, Inc.

      Also in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 the Company  issued 12,330 shares
     of class A common stock as part of the employee stock purchase plan, 3,000
shares of class A common stock as an employee  bonus and 5,000 shares of class A
common stock upon the exercise of employee stock options at $1.25 each.

     We utilize our accounts receivable funding facilities to the maximum extent
available to meet current cash needs and sustain existing  operations.  Although
our existing  operations  are  operating at a profit,  expenses  incurred by our
non-revenue  producing start-up Company,  Behavioral Health Online,  Inc., cause
negative cash flow from operations and create the need for additional financing.
We are currently  aggressively  pursuing financing for our website operations to
help relieve the strain on cash flow from our behavioral health  facilities.  If
financing  for our  website  operations  does not become  available  in the near
future or should our existing operations result in unanticipated  losses, we may
be required to borrow funds on less favorable  terms than have been available in
the past.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

     As  reported  in the  company's  December  31,  1999  10-QSB  the  required
modifications to the Company's billing and receivable software were completed in
a  timely  manner  to  preclude  major  problems  with  the  change  over to the
eight-digit  date on January 1, 2000.  Some minor  problems arose in the area of
reporting,  which were  immediately  corrected  without any major delays in work
progress.

     We did not  experience  any  stoppage  or delays in  receipt  of  essential

                          CONSULTANT WARRANT AGREEMENT

     THIS  AGREEMENT  is made and entered into as of this 3rd day of March 1997,
by  and  between  PHC,  INC.  (the  "Company")  and  C.C.R.I.  CORPORATION  (the
"Consultant") (together, the "Parties").

                                    RECITALS

     A. As of March 3, 1997,  the  Company  and the  Consultant  entered  into a
Consulting  Agreement,  under which the Consultant received warrants to purchase
common stock of the Company ("Common Stock").

     B. The  Consulting  Agreement  provides for the issuance to  Consultant  of
warrants  to  purchase  40,000  shares  of the  common  stock  of  the  Company,
exercisable at a price of $1.00 per share.

     C. The  Company  has  agreed to issue and the  Consultant  is  desirous  of
obtaining the warrants on the terms and conditions herein contained.

     IT IS THEREFORE agreed by and between the parties, for and in consideration
of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained and for other good and
valuable consideration, as follows:

     1. The Company hereby confirms and acknowledges  that it has granted to the
Consultant,  on March 3 1997,  warrants to purchase  shares of Common Stock (the
"Warrant")  upon the terms and conditions  herein set forth subject to the terms
and  conditions of the  Consulting,  Agreement.  The Warrant shall have a 5 year
life and is granted as compensation for services.

     2. The purchase price of the shares of Common Stock underlying the warrants
which may be purchased pursuant to the Warrant is outline below.

     3. The Warrant  shall  continue  for five years after the date of grant set
forth in paragraph 1, unless sooner  terminated or modified under the provisions
of this Agreement or the Consulting Agreement, and shall automatically expire at
midnight on the fifth anniversary of such date.

     4. The Warrant shall vest in equal increments of 40,000 shares  exercisable
as follows upon the occurrence of certain conditions set forth below:

     a. The Warrant shall become exercisable at a price of $1.00 per share as to
40,000 shares upon execution and delivery of this Warrant Agreement.

                                       15
<PAGE>

     5. The shares of Common Stock  issuable  upon exercise of the Warrant shall
be included in a Registration Statement which shall be filed with the Securities
and  Exchange  Commission  to permit  Consultant's  public  resale of any shares
obtained  upon  exercise  of the  Warrant.  The  Company  agrees  to cause  such
Registration  Statement  to be  filed  prior  to  December  31,  1997,  with the
understanding  that  "consultant"  warrants would be piggy-backed on any earlier
Registrations  initiated by the Company.  Warrant  issuance  will require  Board
approval.  The Company agrees to bear the reasonable  costs and expenses of such
registration,  and the costs and  expenses  of  obtaining  the  registration  or
qualification of the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant.

     6.  Subject  to the terms of  paragraph  8 hereof,  this  Warrant  shall be
transferable  upon  surrender  of  this  Warrant  Agreement,  with  the  form of
assignment  attached  hereto duly executed by Consultant,  to the Company at its
office in the State of  Massachusetts.  Upon such  surrender,  the Company shall
cause a Warrant Certificate  containing terms identical to those of this Warrant
Agreement,  to be issued in the name of the transferee or  transferees.  If this
Warrant  Agreement  is assigned  in respect of less than all the shares  covered
hereby, Consultant shall be entitled to receive a new Warrant Agreement covering
the number of shares not so assigned.

     7. Subject to the vesting  requirements  of paragraph 4 above,  the Warrant
may be exercised in whole or in part by delivering to the Company written notice
of exercise on the Purchase Form included  herein  together with payment in full
for the shares  being  purchased  upon such  exercise.  The Company  will,  upon
receipt  of said  notice  and  payment,  issue  or  cause  to be  issued  to the
Consultant a stock certificate for the number of shares purchased hereby.

     8. The consultant  represents and agrees that: (i) the Warrant shall not be
exercisable  unless the  purchase  of Warrant  shares  upon the  exercise of the
Warrant is pursuant to an applicable effective  registration statement under the
Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"),  or unless in the opinion of counsel for the
Company,  the proposed  purchase of such Warrant shares would be exempt from the
registration requirements of the Act, and from the qualification requirements of
any state securities law; (ii) upon exercise of the Warrant, it will acquire the
Warrant  shares for its own  account for  investment  and not with any intent or
view to any  distribution,  resale or other  disposition  of the Warrant  shares
except as  permitted  hereby;  (iii) it will not sell or  transfer  the  Warrant
shares,  unless they are registered under the Act. The Company may require, as a
condition of the exercise of the Warrant,  that the consultant sign such further
representations  and  agreements as it reasonably  determines to be necessary or
appropriate to assure and to evidence  compliance  with the  requirements of the
Act.

     9. In case the Company shall at any time subdivide (by way of a stock split
or stock  dividend)  or combine  the  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock,  the
exercise  price shall be  forthwith  proportionately  decreased  (in the case of
subdivision) or increased (in the case of combination)  and the number of shares
of  Common  Stock  deliverable  upon  the  exercise  of this  Warrant  shall  be
proportionately  adjusted.  If financing  activities  completed  during the time
period of this contract increase fully diluted  capitalization by more than 25%,
the before mentioned warrant numbers shall be increased proportionately.  In the
event of a reduction  in exercise  price,  the date for this  calculation  shall
correspond with the date of exercise price change.

     10. The  Consultant  shall have no rights as a stockholder  with respect to
the shares of Common Stock which may be purchased  pursuant to the Warrant until
such shares are issued to the Consultant.

     11. THIS AGREEMENT IS ENTERED INTO AND SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,  CONSTRUED AND
ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS.

     12. The terms and conditions contained in Consulting  Agreement,  and as it
may be amended from time to time  hereafter,  are  incorporated  into and made a
part of this  Agreement  by  reference,  as if the same were set forth herein in
full, and all provisions of the Warrant are made subject to any and all terms of
the Consulting Agreement.

     13. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be given
in accordance with Section 10 of the Consulting Agreement.

Revolving Credit Loans to Borrower upon or after any Event of Default,  the Term

periods thereafter upon the mutual written agreement of the parties.

     SECTION  6.  AMENDMENT  TO LOAN  AGREEMENT.  The Loan  Agreement  is hereby
amended as follows:

     (a) A new Section 1.32a shall be added to read as follows:

     "SECTION 1.32A MINIMUM  TERMINATION  FEE.  `Minimum  Termination Fee' shall
mean the amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Maximum Loan Amount."

     (b) A new Section 1.46 shall be added to read as follows:

     "SECTION 1.46 YIELD MAINTENANCE  AMOUNT.  `Yield Maintenance  Amount' shall
mean the product  obtained by  multiplying  (i) the  difference  between (A) the
all-in  effective  yield  (measured as a percentage  per annum) earned by Lender
under this  Agreement  during  the three (3) full  calendar  months  immediately
preceeding  the  Termination  Date minus (B)  Heller  Financial  Inc's  weighted
average cost of capital (measured as a percentage per annum) for the most recent
publicly disclosed quarterly financial period;  TIMES (ii) the average principal
amount of outstanding  Revolving  Credit Loans for the three (3) calendar months
immediately preceeding the Termination Date; TIMES (iii) the quotient of (A) the
number of months  (full or partial)  then  remaining  in the Term DIVIDED BY (B)
twelve (12)."

     (c) Section  2.8(c) is hereby  deleted and replaced in its entirety to read
as follows:

     "2.8(c)  Upon at least  (30) days  prior  written  notice  to  Lender  (the
`Termination  Notice  Period'),  Borrower may  terminate  this  Agreement  after
February 18, 2001,  PROVIDED HOWEVER, at the effective date of such termination,
Borrower  shall pay to Lender (in  addition to the then  outstanding  principal,
accrued interest and other  Obligations  owing under the terms of this Agreement
and any other Loan  Documents) as yield  maintenance for the loss of bargain and
not as a penalty,  an amount equal to the greater of (i) the applicable  minimum
Termination  Fee or (ii)  the  Yield  Maintenance  Amount.  Consistent  with the
foregoing.  Borrower  has no right  to  terminate  this  Agreement  until  after
February 18, 2001."
