PACE HEALTH MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the
annual financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31,
1998. The financial information included herein is unaudited; such information
reflects all adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary in
order to make the financial statements not misleading.

The results of operations for the three months and nine months are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year.

NOTE 2. CASH AND RESTRICTED CASH

On October 7, 1998, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its
assets to, and the assumption of certain of its liabilities by, Minnesota Mining
and Manufacturing Company ("3M") (the "Transaction").

The purchase price of the Transaction was approximately $5.9 million, including
$4.75 million in cash, of which $750,000 was originally placed in escrow to
secure the Company's indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase
Agreement, plus the assumption of substantially all of the Company's liabilities
other than $2.1 million in line of credit balances, which were paid off from
proceeds at closing. Subsequent to the closing of the Transaction, the Company
agreed that $25,000 of the amount in escrow could be paid to 3M as part of a
purchase price adjustment contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement, leaving
an escrow balance of $725,000.

In July 1999 the Company received proceeds from the restricted escrow account
totaling $555,958, including interest of $25,671. Approximately $195,000
currently remains in the escrow account pending resolution of certain disputed
indemnification claims.

The net proceeds from the sale will be retained by the Company pending a
determination of whether to engage in a follow-on transaction. The Company has
been seeking a business combination with another entity, before considering
possible liquidation and distribution of its assets. If no suitable business
combination is identified within a reasonable period of time, the Company may
elect to liquidate and distribute the remaining net proceeds to shareholders. If
the Company liquidated at the present time, all of the net assets of the Company
would be paid to holders of the Company's preferred stock.

NOTE 3. BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, Earnings per Share,
which requires the Company to present basic and diluted loss per share amounts.
Basic loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding
during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options and
warrants (using the treasury stock method) and convertible preferred stock
(using the if-converted method). Dilutive potential common shares are excluded
from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

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

GENERAL

Prior to October 1998, PACE developed and marketed advanced patient care
management software systems that enabled healthcare providers to standardize the
delivery of care, maximize resource utilization and improve clinical outcomes.
The Company's enterprise-wide, client/server applications automated charting,
clinical workflow processes and clinical pathways. The Company's core system,
PACE CMS, was a modular suite of advanced software applications that provided
hospitals, physicians' offices, and integrated delivery systems a comprehensive
system for interdisciplinary documentation, nursing care planning, clinical
pathway management and enterprise-wide order management, all at the point of
care.

On October 7, 1998, the Company completed the sale of substantially all of its
assets to, and the assumption of certain of its liabilities by, Minnesota Mining
and Manufacturing Company ("3M") ("the Transaction"). The sale was made pursuant
to an Asset Purchase Agreement dated June 30, 1998, as amended, as described in
Company's definitive proxy statement dated September 14, 1998. The Transaction
was approved by the holders of both the common stock and the preferred stock at
a special meeting of shareholders held on October 7, 1998.

The purchase price of the Transaction was approximately $5.9 million, including
$4.75 million in cash, of which $750,000 was originally placed in escrow to
secure the Company's indemnification obligations under the Asset Purchase
Agreement, plus the assumption of substantially all of the Company's liabilities
other than $2.1 million in line of credit balances, which were paid off from
proceeds at closing. 3M offered positions to most of the Company's employees and
assumed full support of the Company's customers. Subsequent to the closing of
the Transaction, the Company agreed that $25,000 of the amount in escrow could
be paid to 3M as part of a purchase price adjustment contemplated by the Asset
Purchase Agreement, leaving an escrow balance of $725,000.

In July 1999 the Company received proceeds from the escrow account totaling
$555,958, including interest of $25,671. Approximately $195,000 currently
remains in the escrow account pending resolution of certain disputed
indemnification claims.

Following the Transaction, the Company has no ongoing operations and no revenues
and has minimal operating expenses. The Company presently has only one part-time
employee. The Company's September 30, 1999 balance sheet reflects cash
(including the escrow balance pursuant to the Transaction) of almost $2 million
and minimal debt.

The net proceeds from the sale will be retained by the Company pending a
determination of whether to engage in a follow-on transaction. The Company has
been seeking a business combination with another entity, before considering
possible liquidation and distribution of its assets. The Company believes that
with the cash on hand and net operating loss carryforwards, subject to the
limitation of such carryforwards under the Internal Revenue Code, such a
combination may be attractive to potential partners and would better serve the
interests of the Company's shareholders. As of the date of this Form 10-QSB, no
definitive agreement has been signed for a follow-on transaction. If no suitable
business combination is identified within a reasonable period of time, the
Company may elect to liquidate and distribute the remaining net proceeds to
shareholders. If the Company liquidated at the present time, all of the net
assets of the Company would be paid to holders of the Company's preferred stock.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET REVENUES, COST OF SYSTEMS REVENUE, CLIENT SERVICES, PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT, AND
SALES AND MARKETING: Net revenues included systems revenues and customer support
services. Cost of systems revenues included hardware purchases, third party
software, commissions and royalties. Client services expenses included salaries
and expenses related to implementation, installation and customer support.
Product development expenses included salaries and expenses related to
development and documentation of software systems, net of capitalized software
development costs. Sales and marketing expenses included salaries, advertising,
trade show costs and travel expenses related to the sale and marketing of the
Company's systems. Following the Transaction, the Company has no ongoing
operations, no revenues and has minimal operating expenses. The Company
presently has only one part-time employee, reflected in general and
administrative expenses. As a result, all of the above categories reflect no
costs for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 1999.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE: General and administrative expenses include salaries
and expenses for the corporate administration and finance, legal, insurance and
depreciation expenses. General and administrative expenses were $17,855 and
$151,106 for the three months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively,
representing a decrease of 88.2%. General and administrative expenses were
$128,232 and $807,835 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998,
respectively, representing a decrease of 84.1%. These decreases are directly
related to the elimination of operating expenses following the sale of assets.
The 1999 expenses consist primarily of salary and salary related expenses,
insurance costs, and expenses associated with shareholder relations and SEC
reporting requirements. Included in the 1999 year-to-date expenses is
approximately $57,000 in costs related to annual insurance renewals, primarily
for directors and officers liability insurance.

OTHER INCOME, NET: Other income, net is comprised primarily of interest income
and other expenses. Other income, net was $35,203 and $13,488 for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and $77,192 and
($169,013) for the nine months ended September 30 1999 and 1998, respectively.
These increases in other income were a result of increased interest income
related to the increased cash balances following the sale of assets to 3M and
the decreased interest expense following the repayment of the Company's line of
credit. Include in the September 30, 1999 and 1998 third quarter and
year-to-date other income is $17,394 and $51,000, respectively, for state R&D
tax credits. Also included in the 1998 year-to-date figure is other expense
related to the amortization of unearned debt guarantee fees in the amount of
$133,142.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES: No provision for income tax benefit has been
recorded due to the Company recording a valuation allowance on the deferred tax
assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash used operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 1999
and 1998 was $47,886 and $975,007, respectively. Following the Transaction, the
Company has no ongoing operations and no revenues and has minimal operating
expenses. The Company's September 30, 1999 balance sheet reflects cash
(including the escrow balance pursuant to the Transaction) of almost $2.0
million and minimal debt.

The net proceeds from the sale will be retained by the Company pending a
determination of whether to engage in a follow-on transaction. The Company has
been seeking a business combination with another entity, before considering
possible liquidation and distribution of its assets. As of the date of this Form
10-QSB, no definitive agreement has been signed for a follow-on transaction. If
no suitable business combination is identified within a reasonable period of
time, the Company may elect to liquidate and distribute the remaining net
proceeds to shareholders. If the Company liquidated at the present time, all of
the net assets of the Company would be paid to holders of the Company's
preferred stock.
