MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1998
Overview
For all periods presented, the following financial information includes
the accounts of all operating subsidiaries of the Company.
The Company's total revenue, which is comprised primarily of ambulette
and ambulance service fees charged to Medicare, Medicaid, other third party
payers such as private insurance carriers and health maintenance organizations,
and directly to patients, is presented net of contractual and other adjustments.
Forward Looking Statements
Except for the historical information contained herein, the following
statements and certain other statements contained herein are based on current
expectations. Such statements are forward looking statements that involve a
number of risks and uncertainties. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially include, but are not limited to the following (I) general
economic conditions, (ii) competitive market influences, (iii) third party
reimbursement rate changes or changes in criteria of coverage, (iv) availability
of insurance at reasonable costs, (v) customer relations and (vi) increased
competition.
Results of Operations
The Company's total revenue amounted to $4,045,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, as compared with $4,872,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998, a decrease of $827,000 or 17.0%. The decrease is due
substantially to the Company declining certain services, previously performed by
operations of acquired business, that had become unprofitable as a result of the
Company's stricter interpretations of reimbursement regulations and reduction in
reimbursement rates. These stricter interpretations caused changes in
relationships with certain customers thereby reducing revenues and increasing
competition.
Operating expenses decreased by $566,000 or 16.1% to $2,952,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 from $3,518,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1998. As a percentage of sales operating expenses increased less than
one percent Gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased to 27.0% for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 from 27.8 % for the three months ended March
31, 1998.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $251,000 or
18.1.% to $1,132,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, from $1,383,000
for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The decrease was a direct result of
reductions primarily in administrative operating costs, marketing salaries and
benefits, administrative salaries and benefits, and amortization of intangibles.
Such expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased by .4% to 28.0% for the
three months ended March 31, 1999, from 28.4% for the three months ended March
31, 1998, primarily as a result of the decreased expenses.
Interest expense decreased by $54,000 or 30.0% to $126,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $180,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998. This decrease is primarily due to the reduction in
borrowing and the pay down of debt.
Interest income decreased by $18,000 or 94.7% to $1,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $19,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1998. The reduction in interest income is primarily due to significant
expenditures in connection with the reduction of debt.

<PAGE>
The Company's income taxes amounted to a benefit of $609,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared with no tax benefit being recognized
for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The 1999 tax benefit resulted from
the recognition of deferred tax assets. The deferred tax assets were recognized
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 based on management's belief that
there is a strong likelihood that such amounts will be realized based upon their
assessment of expected future operations and the resulting taxability.
The Company's Net Income amounted to $445,000 or $.44 per share for the
three months ended March 31, 1999, as compared to a net loss of $190,000 or $.19
per share for the three months ended March 31, 1998. This increase in net income
and increase in earnings per share is attributable to the factors described
above, primarily the recognition of the deferred tax asset.
Acquisitions
On March 29, 1999 the Company announced that it has signed a letter of
intent with Lifestar Response Corporation ("Lifestar") for a merger of Lifestar
and the Company.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash used in operating activities amounted to $262,000 for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 as compared with cash provided by operating
activities of $745,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1998. The increase
in cash used in operating activities was the result of increases in accounts
receivable, prepaid and other assets and the recognition of the deferred tax
assets, partially offset by the increases in net income and accounts payable and
accrued expenses.
Cash provided by investing activities amounted to $270,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to cash used in investing
activities of $87,000 for the same period in 1998. The increase in cash provided
by investing activities was primarily the result of a reduction in short-term
investments.
Cash provided by financing activities amounted to $254,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared with cash used in financing
activities of $409,000 for the same period in 1998. The increase in cash
provided by financing activities was largely the result of additional bank
borrowings as a result of the recently completely financing agreement with
Finova Capital Corporation.
In December 1996, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 credit
facility. A portion of the $10,000,000 credit facility consisted of a $6,500,000
revolving credit arrangement, which may only be drawn down if the Company has
sufficient qualified accounts receivable. The balance of the credit facility was
available under term notes. The Company, at times was unable to draw down
desired amounts because of slow payment by reimbursement agencies and as a
result of delays in collection. In addition, the Company may be required from
time to time to repay a portion of this facility under the provisions of the
credit agreement. At March 31, 1998, there was $5,663,000 outstanding under this
facility consisting of $3,800,000 under the revolving credit arrangement and
$1,863,000 under the term notes.

<PAGE>
At December 31, 1997, the Company was not in compliance with several
financial covenants of its existing loan agreement. The lenders provided a
waiver in connection with amendment to the loan agreement, which was completed
on April 14, 1998. As a result of such amendment, the lenders amended certain
financial covenants at future measurement dates to accommodate the Company's
then current financial status. The lenders also extended the maturity date of
the revolving credit arrangements to January 18, 1999 and in conjunction with
such revisions, reduced the amount under the revolving credit arrangements from
$6,500,000 to $3,500,000.
In February 1999 the Company entered into a new financing arrangement
with Finova Capital Corporation. The Company obtained a term loan of $3,950,000
a revolving credit line of $4,000,000 and availability of $1,000,000 for future
equipment acquisitions. Under the Revolver, the Company has approximately a $2.5
million available line of credit, which the Company may use subject to the
availability of eligible accounts receivable. The prior loan was satisfied with
the proceeds of the Finova Loan.
At March 31, 1999, the Company had a working capital of $1,845,000 as
compared to a working capital deficit of $491,000 at March 31, 1998.
The Company expects that the combination of existing cash balances and
cash generated from operations based on present projections, will provide
sufficient liquidity and enable it to meet its currently foreseeable working
capital requirements for existing operations for the balance of the year.
Inflation
The Company believes that the relatively moderate rates of inflation in
recent years have not had a significant impact on its net revenues or its
profitability.
