(1)  INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

      The consolidated interim financial statements of the Company presented
herein have been prepared without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and
notes required by generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed
or omitted. In the opinion of management, these statements include all
adjustments (all of which consist only of normal recurring adjustments except as
otherwise noted herein) necessary to present fairly the Company's financial
position and results of operations for the interim periods presented. These
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements
and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended November 30, 1995. The results of
the operations for the six months ended May 31, 1996, are not necessarily
indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the fiscal year
ended November 30, 1996.

(2)  RECLASSIFICATIONS

      Certain amounts in the accompanying 1995 consolidated financial statements
have been reclassified to conform with the 1996 presentation.

(3)  SEGMENT INFORMATION

      The Company's operations are classified into two business segments: health
care management services and automated medication management. Operations within
the health care management services segment include pharmacy management
services, healthcare materials services and home infusion therapy, all provided
on a contract basis in the United States. The automated medication management
segment includes the manufacture and sale of automated medication management
systems.

      Operating income (loss) for each business segment is defined as revenues
less operating costs and expenses. Identifiable assets are those tangible and
intangible assets used exclusively in the operations of each business segment or
which are allocated when used jointly.

      The following table shows revenues, operating income (loss) and other
financial information by business segment for the six months ended May 31, 1996

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

  OVERVIEW

      Approximately 88% of Owen's revenues for the six months ended May 31, 1996
came from the management of hospital pharmacies. Owen's largest client,
Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corporation, provided 16.1% of revenues during the
six-month period ended May 31, 1996, compared to 13.8% for all of fiscal 1995.
The Company's five largest clients, all group hospitals, accounted for 44.3% of
revenues during the six months ended May 31, 1996 compared to 39.9% for all of
fiscal 1995. The Company also manufactures and sells automated pharmacy
dispensing systems, manages hospital materials departments, operates retail
pharmacies and provides home infusion pharmaceutical and certain related
services.

      Owen provides its pharmacy services under contracts with a variety of
compensation arrangements, many of which include price guarantees and other risk
sharing arrangements. In addition, factors such as patient volumes, intensity of
services, patient mix, drug price changes, physician prescribing patterns and
changes in contract terms upon renewal, affect the revenues and margins derived
from Owen's individual hospital clients. Because of the differences in Owen's
contracts among its hospital clients and the interaction of the factors
affecting revenues, Owen is unable to quantify the amount of revenue increase
attributable to any single factor. Although there has been, and continues to be,
a trend towards reduced inpatient hospital days which has limited revenue growth
at some locations and, in some cases resulted in a decline in revenues from
individual hospitals, the Company has historically been able to offset this
trend by adding new hospital contracts.

      Owen includes the costs of pharmaceuticals and supplies as well as direct
compensation and other costs in cost of goods sold and other direct expenses.
Owen has historically negotiated discounted purchasing arrangements from its
major suppliers and sought to preserve its margin by utilizing its systems to
encourage purchasing compliance with these arrangements. Inflation in drug
costs, introduction of new and sometimes expensive drugs and changes in
physician prescribing patterns can affect Owen's margins. Owen's margins can
also be affected by the extent to which it can pass through these cost
increases. Finally, margins from period to period are affected by the timing and
volume of new hospital contracts. Locations are generally more profitable as
they mature, particularly after Owen has been in a hospital for at least one
year.

      Owen is aware of three circumstances that may have a negative impact on
the level of expected growth in its revenues and results of operations for the
remainder of fiscal 1996. First, Owen is currently experiencing very strong
growth in its hospital pharmacy services business. During the six months ended
May 31, 1996, Owen began operating seventeen new pharmacies with estimated
aggregate annual revenues of approximately $34 million. In addition, the Company
has either begun or expects to begin operating pharmacies during the third and
fourth quarter of fiscal 1996 fourteen additional pharmacies providing an
estimated $56 million of annual revenues. Owen has also recently begun the
operation of a consolidated pharmacy operation for a four hospital, 1,500 bed
integrated healthcare network in Virginia and has opened a central pharmacy
facility in Oklahoma for Correctional Medical Services which is expected, by the
end of the fiscal year, to serve the pharmaceutical needs of up to sixty prisons
and jails nationwide. Many of these new contracts involve very large and complex
operations and as a result are expected to have lower margins than Owen's
historical average and to take longer to achieve those margins.

      Second, while the infrastructure build-up continues at the Company's
Meditrol(R) subsidiary to support anticipated growth, completed sales in the
first six months of fiscal 1996 were lower than expected. Meditrol contributed
approximately $6.6 million, or 3.1%, of revenues in the first six months of
fiscal 1996 principally from non-cancelable sales-type lease transactions and
outright sales. The Company is also aware of a trend which indicates that, in
the future, some of the Meditrol systems will be offered as part of the overall
Owen pharmacy management services. In installations where the Meditrol systems
are not separable from and contractually independent of the pharmacy management
agreements, revenues will be recognized over the time Owen manages the related
pharmacy rather than upon contracting for, and installation of, the systems.
Increases in this type of installation would negatively impact the timing of
revenues for the Company's automated medication management segment by postponing
the recognition of revenues. As a result of the uncertainty of the timing of the
completion of sales and the impact of installations as part of Owen's pharmacy
management services, the Company expects that revenues from Meditrol sales
during the third and fourth quarter will continue to be below expectations.

                                        8

      Finally, Owen has made a decision to curtail its home infusion services
offered to its client hospitals and to discontinue much of its infusion business
elsewhere due to an unsatisfactory trend in margins. As a result, Owen has
closed four therapy locations, leaving only two locations in operation. While
the reduction of this business segment is not expected to result in any
significant charge to earnings, the Company's revenues and earnings will be
negatively effected by the loss of the contribution that had been expected from
this business segment.

      The information in the preceding paragraphs contains forward-looking
information based on current information and expectations of the Company that
involve a number of uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause the actual
results to differ materially are: the timing of the execution of new contracts,
the costs, time and complexity involved in opening new pharmacies, changes in
competitive factors or regulations, the timing of sales of Meditrol systems, the
ability of the company to hire and train efficiently and effectively sufficient
personnel to handle its expanding business and the Company's ability to control
increases in costs associated with its increased business.

      The Company historically has been able to pass drug price increases
through to clients, but recent trends toward fixed price risk-sharing contracts
have reduced its ability to do so. The Company expects this trend may continue
and to this extent may negatively impact margins.

      The following discussion of the Company's results of operations and
financial condition should be read in conjunction with the Company's Financial
Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

  RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      The following table sets forth, as a percentage of revenues, certain

</TABLE>

      THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1996 (SECOND QUARTER) COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS
ENDED MAY 31, 1995

      Revenues were $107.2 million for the three months ended May 31, 1996
compared to $96.4 million for the same period in fiscal 1995, an increase of
$10.8 million, or 11.2%. Approximately 47.2% of the increase was due to new
pharmacy contracts begun during the first six months of 1996; approximately
79.3% of the increase was due to contracts begun in fiscal 1995 and operated for
the full second quarter in fiscal 1996, and approximately 10.2% of the increase
was due to an increase of $1.1 million in Meditrol sales, 36.9% of the increase
was offset by discontinued contracts.

      Cost of goods and other direct expenses increased $7.5 million, or 9.1%,
to $89.7 million in the quarter ended May 31, 1996 as compared to $82.2 million
in the same period in fiscal 1995. Approximately 68.7% of the increase was due
to new pharmacy contracts begun during the first six months of fiscal 1996 and
approximately 86.0% was due to contracts commenced during fiscal 1995 and
operated for the full quarter in fiscal 1996. The remainder of the increase was
related to the cost of goods due to the Company's automated medication
management system, all partially offset by discontinued contracts.

      Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $2.0 million, or
19.8%, to $12.1 million in the three months ended May 31, 1996 as compared to
$10.1 million in the same period in fiscal 1995. The increase was primarily the
result of adding resources related to the Company's automated medication
management system ($1.7 million) and healthcare management services business
($0.3 million).

      Research and development expenses increased $185,000, or 158.1%, to
$302,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 1996, as compared to $117,000 for the
same period in fiscal 1995. The Company's research and development expenditures
are related to developing products to support and complement the Meditrol
system.

      Interest expense declined $927,000, or 97.5%, to $24,000 for the second
quarter of 1996 as compared to $951,000 during the same period in fiscal 1995.
The Company paid off substantially all of its long-term debt with the proceeds
it received from the public offering of its stock in August, 1995.

      Investment income and other income, net, increased $155,000, or 120.2%, to
$284,000 for the second quarter ended May 31, 1996 as compared to $129,000 for
the same period in fiscal 1995. Interest on funds in excess of those needed to
pay off the debt in August, 1995 accounted for most of this difference.

      As a result of the foregoing, net income for the three months ended May
31, 1996 was $3.1 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 72.2%, from $1.8
million in the same quarter of fiscal 1995.

      SIX MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1996 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1995

      Revenues were $214.4 million, an increase of $27.4 million, or 14.7%, in
the six months ended May 31, 1996 compared to $187.0 million for the same period
in fiscal 1995. Approximately $6.3 million, or 23.0%, of the increase was due to
new pharmacy contracts begun during the first six months of fiscal 1996, and
approximately $23.0 million, or 83.9%, of the increase was due to contracts
commenced in fiscal 1995 and operated for the full six months of fiscal 1996.
Approximately $4.2 million, or 15.3%, of the increase was due to Meditrol sales.
A decrease of $12.1 million, or 44.2%, occurred due to discontinued contracts
while the remaining increase of approximately $6.0 million, or 1.9%, was
generated by same store pharmacies and other areas of the Company.

      Cost of goods and other direct expenses increased $21.2 million, or 13.3%,
during the six months ended May 31, 1996, to $180.7 million as compared to
$159.5 million in the same period of fiscal 1995. Approximately $6.5 million, or
30.7%, of the increase was due to new pharmacy contracts begun during the first
six months of fiscal 1996 and approximately $19.4 million, or 91.5%, of the
increase was due to contracts commenced in 1995 and operated for the full six
months of fiscal 1996. Meditrol accounted for approximately $1.3 million, or
6.2%, of the increase. A decrease of approximately $10.5 million, or 49.5%, was
due to discontinued pharmacy contracts. Approximately $4.5 million, or 21.2%,
was made up of increased cost of goods in the same store pharmacies and other
areas of the Company.

      Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.7 million, or
18.9%, to $23.3 million in the six months ended May 31, 1996 as compared to
$19.6 for the same period in fiscal 1995. The increase was the result of adding
resources to the Company's automated management system ($2.5 million) and the
Company's healthcare management services business ($1.2 million).

      Research and development expenses increased $306,000, or 255.0%, during
the six months ended May 31, 1996 to $426,000 as compared to $120,000 for the
same period during fiscal 1995. These expenditures relate to Meditrol product
development and to support and complement its systems.

      Interest expense decreased $1,702,000, or 97.3%, to $48,000 for the six
months ended May 31, 1996 as compared to $1,750,000 for the same period in
fiscal 1995. The Company used proceeds of its public offering in August, 1995 to
pay off substantially all of its long-term debt.

      Investment and other income, net, increased $272,000, or 99.6%, to
$545,000 during the six months ended May 31, 1996 as compared to $273,000 during
the same period in fiscal 1995. Income from investment of excess funds from the
public offering accounted for most of the difference.

      As a result of the foregoing, net income for the six months ended May 31,
1996 was $6.2 million, an increase of $2.5 million, or 67.6%, from $3.7 million
in the same period of fiscal 1995.

  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Owen had cash and cash equivalents of $17.0 million at May 31, 1996
compared to $16.5 million at November 30, 1995. The increase of $0.5 million in
cash and cash equivalents was caused by continued collection efforts. In
addition to cash flow from operations, Owen has historically financed its
working capital and other liquidity needs through bank and other institutional
indebtedness. New pharmacy management contracts typically require funds to
acquire inventory, place personnel and equipment in the client locations and to
finance accounts receivable. The Company's automated medication management
business has also required significant expenditures to build a manufacturing,
marketing and support infrastructure, reengineer the product, enhance the
information system, and develop necessary software. Owen expects to continue to
rely on a combination of internally generated funds and borrowings to support
its capital requirements and other liquidity needs. During the first six months,
the Company expended approximately $5.2 million on capital assets and
anticipates that capital expenditures will total approximately $10.0 million in
fiscal 1996.

      On June 28, 1996, the Company announced commencement of a stock repurchase
program. Under the Company's stock repurchase program, the Company may buy back
in open market transactions, block trades or private transactions, up to 500,000
shares of the Company's common stock (approximately 3% of the outstanding
shares) at market prices. Such purchases, if made, are expected to be funded out
of general funds of the Company.

      As of May 31, 1996, the Company had working capital of $80.7 million
compared to $74.7 million at November 30, 1995, and its ratio of current assets
to current liabilities was 3.6 to 1 at May 31, 1996 compared to 3.3 to 1 at
November 30, 1995. Net accounts and notes receivable decreased $0.2 million
during the six months ended May 31, 1996 and the days in accounts and notes
receivable decreased to 41.9 days from 46.9 days as of November 30, 1995.
Inventories increased $3.9 million during the first six months of fiscal 1996.

      Outstanding debt at May 31, 1996 and November 30, 1995 was unchanged at
$3,000. Effective August 21, 1995 the Company renegotiated its revolving line of
credit with a commercial bank and at May 31, 1996 had $20.0 million of credit
available. This line of credit has been extended through March 31, 1997. During
the six months ended May 31, 1996, the Company borrowed once under this line of
credit and subsequently paid back the sums borrowed. There was no outstanding
balance at May 31, 1996. The interest rate on amounts outstanding under this
credit facility is equal to the bank's prime rate or other negotiated rates,
which approximated 8.25% at May 31, 1996.

      The Company commenced the manufacturing and marketing of its Meditrol
automated medication management system during the early part of fiscal 1995. The
Company is principally marketing its Meditrol systems under sales-type leases
whereby revenues are recognized when the systems are installed and/or accepted
by the customer and applicable lease accounting requirements are met. Reserves
for credit losses and warranty obligations are maintained. In April and May,
1995, the Company entered into two vendor finance agreements under which
sales-type lease receivables for Meditrol equipment originated by the Company
are sold on a limited credit recourse pool basis to the finance companies, after
meeting certain credit worthiness and related requirements. Under the
agreements, there is no obligation for the finance companies to purchase the
Meditrol lease receivables nor must the Company offer the receivables for sale.
There are no stated maximum amounts which can be purchased and the agreements
can be unilaterally terminated, although the Company is not aware of any intent
to do so. During the first six months of fiscal 1996, the Company received cash
of $4.0 million from the sale of lease receivables with immaterial gain or loss.
These financing facilities are not available in other than non-cancelable
sales-type lease transactions.
