ENCORE MEDICAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Encore Medical Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (individually and
collectively referred to as the "Company"). All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by
generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 28, 1997 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Joint
Proxy/Prospectus dated February 27, 1997 (the "Joint Proxy/Prospectus").

2.   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     The Company designs, manufactures, markets and sells products for the
orthopedic implant industry primarily in the United States, Europe and Asia.
The Company's products are subject to regulation by the Food and Drug
Administration ("FDA") with respect to their sale in the United States, and the
Company must obtain FDA authorization to market each of its products before
they can be sold in the United States. Additionally, the Company is subject to
similar regulations in many of the international countries in which it sells
products.

     As explained in Note 3, Encore Orthopedics, Inc. ("Encore") merged with
Healthcare Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Healthcare
Acquisition Corp. ("HCAC").

3.   HCAC MERGER

     In November 1996, Encore, HCAC, a publicly traded, specified purpose 
acquisition company, and a wholly owned subsidiary of HCAC, executed a
definitive agreement and plan of merger. The merger was contingent upon, among
other things, the approval of the shareholders of both Encore and HCAC at
meetings which were held in March 1997. Effective March 25, 1997, the merger
was completed and HCAC's name was changed to Encore Medical Corporation.

     The merger was effected by HCAC issuing 0.8884 HCAC common shares and
0.13326 HCAC warrants with an exercise price of $7.00 ("HCAC $7.00 warrants")
for each common share of Encore and 1.11049 HCAC common shares and 0.16657 HCAC
$7.00 warrants for each preferred share of Encore in accordance with the
exchange ratio set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger. In addition,
outstanding options and warrants to purchase common stock of Encore were
exchanged for options and warrants to purchase HCAC common stock and HCAC $7.00
warrants based on the exchange ratio discussed above.

     For financial reporting and accounting purposes, the merger was accounted
for as a recapitalization of Encore, with the issuance of shares by Encore for
the net assets of HCAC, consisting primarily of cash. As such, Encore is
considered the predecessor company, and the accompanying balance sheet at
December 31, 1996 and statement of income for the three months ended March 29,
1996 are those of Encore and do not include the accounts or results of
operations of HCAC. The capital accounts of Encore at December 31, 1996,
however, have been reflected on an equivalent share basis to give effect to the
exchange ratios discussed above. The accompanying statement of income for the
three months ended March 28, 1997 includes the results of operations of HCAC
from the effective date of the merger (March 25, 1997) through the end of the
period.

5.   NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

     Net income (loss) per share is computed based on the weighted average
number of outstanding common and common equivalent shares, using the modified
treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are not included in the per
share calculation where the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended March 28, 1997, the application of the modified
treasury stock method resulted in an assumed reduction of interest expense and
amortization of debt discount, net of the related tax benefit, of approximately
$66,000 which has been added to net income available to common stockholders for
purposes of calculating earnings per share.

6.   RECENT PRONOUNCEMENT

     The Financial Accountings Standards Board has issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("FAS 128")
establishing a new methodology for calculating earnings per share. FAS 128 must
be adopted as of December 31, 1997, and earlier adoption is not permitted. Had
net income (loss) applicable to common stock per share been determined under
this new standard, there would have been no change for the three months ended
March 29, 1996 from amounts reported, but for the three months ended March 28,
1997, basic earnings per share would have been $0.05 and diluted earnings per
share would have been $0.03.

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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 28, 1997, AS COMPARED TO
THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 29, 1996

     Net sales increased 58% to $5,740,000 for the first quarter of 1997, when
compared to $3,634,000 for the same period in 1996. U.S. sales increased 70.8%
to $3,011,000 and sales outside the U.S. increased 45.9% to $2,729,000. This
increase was primarily a result of the Company's continued penetration of the
reconstructive device market led by the Foundation(R) Total Knee System.

     Gross margin was $3,816,000 or 66.5% of sales, up from $2,429,000 or 66.8%
of sales for the same period in 1996. The increase in gross margin resulted
from increased sales.

     Operating income was $682,000 or 11.9% of sales, up from $174,000 or 4.8%
of sales for the same period in 1996. Increased operating income resulted from
increased sales and non-recurring costs of $192,000 in 1996 associated with the
acquisition of Applied Osteo Systems, Inc. Costs associated with expanding the
infrastructure partially offset the increase in operating income.

     Net income was $305,000 or 5.3% of sales, up from $9,000 or 0.2% of sales
for the same period in 1996. Increased net income resulted primarily from
increased sales. The increase in net income was partially offset by costs
associated with expanding the infrastructure, increased interest expense and
federal income taxes.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Since inception, the Company has financed its operations through the sale
of equity securities, borrowings and cash flow from operations. At March 28,
1997, the Company had cash of $8,456,000 compared to $472,000 at December 31,
1996. On March 25, 1997, the merger with HCAC was completed, resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of $7,446,000 after deduction of HCAC stock
conversions, investment banking, legal, accounting and 

                                      -6-
<PAGE>   7

other related costs. The Company intends to use the proceeds from the merger to
primarily fund working capital, specifically inventory and the expected
increase in accounts receivable, as well as capital expenditures.

     The Company projects that through the combination of cash generated from
operations, its credit facilities and the funds from the merger with HCAC, the
cash available will be sufficient to fund operations and expand the business
for at least the next twelve months.
