(9) ORGANIZATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of National Diagnostics, Inc. ("Company"), Alpha Associates, Inc.
("Associates"), Alpha Acquisitions Corp. ("Acquisitions"), SunPoint
Diagnostic Center, Inc. ("SunPoint"), National Diagnostics/Orange
Park, Inc. ("Orange Park"), National Diagnostics/Cardiology, Inc.
("Cardiology") and National Diagnostics/Riverside, Inc.
("Riverside"). Associates and Acquisitions hold 100% of the
partnership interests in Brandon Diagnostic Center, Ltd.
("Brandon"). National Diagnostics, Inc., is a holding company which
was formed in June, 1994. The Company, Associates, and Acquisitions
had common stockholders. In September, 1994, the stockholders
exchanged all of their shares of common stock of Associates and
Acquisitions for 1,200,000 shares of common stock and 1,200,000
common share purchase warrants exercisable at $7.20 per share of the
Company. The stock exchange resulted in a combination of entities
under common control and was accounted for by combining the
historical amounts of the companies (similar to a pooling of
interests).
Effective September 20, 1994, the Company completed an Initial Public
Offering (IPO) of 500,000 units wherein each unit consists of one
share of common stock and one common share purchase warrant
exercisable at $7.20 per share. The net proceeds from this sale were
approximately $2,400,000.
On November 7, 1994, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary and
opened SunPoint Diagnostic Center, Inc. (SunPoint).

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
On February 1, 1995, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary,
National Diagnostics/Orange Park, Inc. (Orange Park) and purchased
the assets of a mobile company.
On July 15, 1996, the Company opened its fourth fixed site facility,
National Diagnostics/Riverside, Inc. ("Riverside") located in
Jacksonville, Florida.
The Company provides medical imaging services to patients in Brandon
(Brandon), Ruskin (SunPoint), and greater Jacksonville area (Orange
Park and Cardiology), Florida.
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. The unaudited financial
statements and the related notes thereto for September 30, 1995 and
1996 include all normal and recurring adjustments which in the
opinion of management are necessary for a fair presentation and are
prepared on the same basis as the audited annual statements. The
interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for the full fiscal year.
(10) LEGAL ACTION
On February 9, 1996 the East Pasco Radiologist physician group, which
in December, 1995 terminated its contract for reading services with
the Brandon and SunPoint centers, filed suit against the centers
alleging the centers materially breached the contract by failing to
pay physician fees timely and incorrectly billed certain procedures.
The Company denies any material breach of the contract. The court
has denied the plaintiff's motion for partial summary judgment for
$400,000 in damages. A resolve was not reached by way of mediation
and the case continues in the discovery stage. Management feels it
has reserved an adequate loss provision in the event of an adverse
outcome.
On March 10, 1995 legal action was instituted against A.T. Brod &
Co., Inc. (a national stock brokerage firm) by a terminated employee
of A.T. Brod & Co., Inc. ("A.T. Brod"). A.T. Brod was a major market
maker for National Diagnostics, Inc. stock. The action alleges
wrongful discharge, breach of contract, defamation of character,
conspiracy and tortious interference with a contract arising out of
the alleged wrongful termination of the plaintiff by A.T. Brod. The
Company was named in the suit. Compensatory and punitive damages of
$2,830,000 are sought. On June 14, 1995, a motion was made under the
rules of the National Association of Dealers to compel arbitration of
the matter and to stay the action in entirety against the Company
pending the outcome of the arbitration. Upon receiving the motion,
the plaintiff's attorney indicated he agreed with the defendants'
position, consenting to arbitration and to stay the action pending
the outcome of that arbitration. Through November 1, 1996, the
plaintiff's attorney has taken no steps to progress his claim in
arbitration. Based upon information available to defendants' counsel
through this date, counsel indicates the claim appears to be not
meritorious. The Company feels the suit is without merit and intends
to vigorously defend itself. The ultimate outcome of this legal
matter cannot be determined at this time, and accordingly, no
adjustments have been made to the consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and
results of operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere herein.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were $6,606,240
compared to $4,307,312 for the same period in 1995, representing a 53%
increase. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in the volume
of procedures performed. The Company generated year to date net revenues of
$1,977,701 in 1996 as a result of the addition of the National
Diagnostics/Orange Park, Inc ("Orange Park") in February 1995, National
Diagnostics/Cardiology, Inc. ("Cardiology") in September 1995 and National
Diagnostics/Riverside, Inc. in July 1996. Net revenues for the three months
ending September 30, 1996 were down 7% from the preceding quarter which
management attributes to a seasonal fluctuation.
Direct operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 were
$3,403,597 compared to $2,370,481 for the same period in 1995, representing a
44% increase. The increase in direct operating expenses was primarily due to
the addition of Orange Park, Cardiology and Riverside. Direct operating
expenses as a percentage of net revenue decreased to 51.5% from 55.0% for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The decrease of
direct costs as a percent of net revenue was a result of certain cost cutting
measures taken by the Company in December 1995 including obtaining more
favorable contracts for radiology reading fees.
General and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30,
1996 were $2,488,178 compared to $1,834,269 for the same period in 1995,
representing a 26.3% increase. The increase is primarily attributable to the
addition of the Orange Park, Cardiology and Riverside facilities and additional
personnel costs. Personnel were added in response to the increase volume of
procedures performed overall and the expansion of facilities. General and
administrative expenses increased as a percent of net revenues to 46.2% for the
nine months ending September 30, 1996 compared to 43.4% for the same period in
1995 as a result of the new Riverside facility coming on line.
The increase in net revenues over that experienced in 1995 (a 32% or $517,000
increase in revenues over the quarter ending September 30, 1995) was offset by
a greater increase in operating expenses which resulted in a loss of $572,574.
Approximately 46% of the loss is attributable to the new Riverside facility
coming on line. The remainder is attributable largely to the seasonal downturn
in revenues experienced by the Company during summer months. Net income for
the Brandon Diagnostic Center ("Brandon"), the Company's most mature center,
was $174,355 on revenues of $1,212,579 for the three months ended September 30,
1996 from a loss of ($89,701) on revenues of $955,217 for the three months
ended September 30, 1995. A net loss for the SunPoint Diagnostic Center, Inc.
("SunPoint") facility decreased to $23,312 on revenues of $291,746 for the
three months ended September 30, 1996 from a loss of $(81,565) on revenues of
$230,142 for the same period in 1995 as a result of increased revenues and
decreased expenses. National Diagnostics/Orange Park, Inc. ("Orange Park") did
not become a full fixed site facility until midway into the 3rd quarter of
1995. However, Orange Park realized a loss of $(293,851) on revenues of
$542,168 for the quarter ending September 30, 1996 compared to the preceding
quarter's loss of $(43,225) on revenues of $779,580. National
Diagnostics/Cardiology, Inc. ("Cardiology") was not operational until the 3rd
quarter of 1995 and was merged into Orange Park in May 1996. The preceding
Orange Park analysis contains the pro forma merged operations. National
Diagnostics, Inc. ("Parent") company which provides executive management,
billing and accounting functions for its subsidiaries realized a loss of
$(175,667) on management fees of $163,774 for the quarter ending September 30,
1996 compared to a loss of $(106,763) on management fees of $134,347 for the
same period in 1995. The management fees charged to its subsidiaries are
eliminated upon consolidation. The billing services and costs did not commence
until the 3rd quarter of 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company used $78,000 for operations in the 3rd quarter 1996 compared to the
same period in 1995 when operations generated $6,000. Investing activities
used $282,000 for the acquisition of equipment. Financing activities generated
$387,000; approximately $151,000 was used toward debt retirement offset by
approximately $389,000 of proceeds from additional borrowing and $149,000 from
the issue of common stock. The Company increased its net cash balance after
the above transactions by approximately $27,000. The Company attributes the
loss performance experienced in the third quarter to the start up of its fourth
fixed site facility coupled with a seasonal dampening in revenues experienced
in the summer months.
The Company secured a $2,000,000 line of credit in September with DVI Business
Credit with a qualified borrowing base of approximately $913,000 to be used
toward financing current operations. Approximately 57% of the loan proceeds
were used to payoff existing lines of credit with banking institutions. In
September, 1996, Brandon Diagnostic Center, Ltd. secured refinancing with
South Hillsborough Community Bank of West Florida for an existing equipment
loan, consisting of a $216,000 four-year term loan. Interest on loan is
payable at prime plus one percent. However, due to the rapid expansion of
facilities and increase in additional personnel and related costs the Company
has continued to experience difficulty in meeting timely its current
obligations. The Company believes additional capital is needed to reduce the
cash flow pressures the Company is experiencing. Additionally, the Company
foresees the possibility of a competing out patient clinic in its Brandon
location in early 1997. Pursuant to these factors the Company is exploring
various alternatives which may allow the Company to satisfy its working capital
shortage. ( See also the Company's growth strategy below). There is no
assurance that these short-term needs can be met.
Medical equipment, capital improvements, acquisitions and new center
development historically have been funded through the Company's initial public
offering in September 1994, third party capital lease and debt obligations and
internally generated cash flow. The leases are generally secured by the
equipment, and sometimes other assets, of particular facilities. Interest
rates in connection with the leases and borrowings range from fixed rates of up
to 12.25% to a variable rate equal to the bank prime rate plus 1%.
The Company's remaining growth strategies will require additional funds. In
the event the Company proceeds with the establishment of additional facilities,
or encounter favorable acquisition opportunities in the near future, the
Company may incur, from time to time, additional indebtedness and attempt to
issue equity or debt securities in public or private transactions. The Company
entered into a contract effective April 1, 1996 with financial consultants.
They will assist in the formulation and execution of the Company's continued
acquisition and financing program. As partial compensation the Company intends
to issue warrants to purchase 40,000 common shares exercisable at $2.50 per
share and 40,000 common shares exercisable at $3.00 per share. Additionally,
the Company entered into a consulting contract effective April 1, 1996 to
structure the Company's management and financial information systems for future
expansion. As partial compensation on July 25, 1996 the Company issued
warrants to purchase 100,000 shares, exercisable at $3.00 per share.
Subsequently, in the third quarter 50,000 of the warrants were exercised at
$3.00 in exchange for 50,000 common shares. There is no assurance that the
Company will be successful in securing additional financing or capital through
equity or debt securities.
The Company has over the last few years experienced increased pressures on
reimbursement from third parties. The Company expects such pressures to cause
reduced pricing in the aggregate for diagnostic procedures in the future. Due
primarily from the Company's revenue mix the effects of reduced pricing have
been minimized . Approximately 47% of which has been derived from private
insurance carriers, individuals, worker's compensation and other sources that
have not experienced reimbursement pressures characteristic of managed care
providers, Medicare and Medicaid. Additionally, the Company has entered into
certain capitation contracts with minimum flooring reimbursements which the
Company believes will ultimately bring new found business to the Centers.
The capitation contracts are fixed fee arrangements made with HMO's wherein the
Company receives a fixed fee per HMO participant regardless of whether the
participant receives patient services or not. A minimum floor reimbursement
(example: 65% of the Medicare allowable rate) is agreed to which serves to
minimize the risk to the Company should an excess number
16
<PAGE> 17
of participants require patient services. The advantage to the Company results
when the aggregated fixed fee per HMO participant exceeds the fees earned from
actual HMO participant patient services rendered. Additionally, the Company
may obtain regular fee for service revenues from referred HMO participants for
services not covered under the capitation contract.
