TOTAL RENAL CARE HOLDINGS, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contains certain "forward-looking statements" as defined in the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements relating to
future events and financial performance are forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties, detailed from time to time in the Company's
various Securities and Exchange Commission filings.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended JuneSeptember 30, 1996 Compared to the Three Months Ended
JuneSeptember 30, 1995.
Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues for the second quarterthree months ended
JuneSeptember 30, 1996 (third quarter) increased $33,959,000$35,918,000 to $64,583,000$73,333,000 from
$30,624,000$37,415,000 for the second quarterthree months ended JuneSeptember 30, 1995 representing a 110.9%96.0%
increase. Of this increase, $29,126,000$34,742,000 was due to increased treatments from
acquisitions, existing facility growth and from de novo developments. The
remainder was due to an increase in net operating revenues per treatment,
$235.48$232.38 in the secondthird quarter of 1996 compared to $223.64$228.65 in the secondthird quarter of 1995, and an increase in
affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees. The increase in operating
revenues per treatment was due to increased ancillary utilization primarily in
the administration of erythropoietin ("EPO"), the addition of Total Renal Care,
Inc.'s ("TRC") end stage renal disease ("ESRD") laboratory, an overall increase
in average reimbursement rates, and the opening of an intravenous therapy ("IV")
and oral pharmaceutical program and an access management program.
Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses consist of
costs and expenses specifically attributable to the operation of dialysis
facilities, including operating and maintenance costs of such facilities,
equipment and direct labor, and supplies and service costs relating to patient
care. Facility operating expenses increased $23,820,000 to $43,318,000 in the
second quarter of 1996 from $19,498,000 in the second quarter of 1995. As a
percentage of net operating revenues, facility operating expenses increased to
67.1% in the second quarter of 1996 from 63.7% in the second quarter of 1995 due
to the significant amount of recent acquisitions and de novo development
activity with an operating epense structure that is initially higher due to
integration costs incurred in the first few months of operations coupled with a
lower base of revenue generated until the Company's ancillary programs are
added, leading to an overall lower operating margin.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative
expenses include headquarters expense and administrative, legal, quality
assurance, information systems and centralized accounting support functions.
General and administrative expenses increased $2,023,000 to $4,800,000 in the
second quarter of 1996 from $2,777,000 in the second quarter of 1995. As a
percentage of net operating revenues, general and administrative expenses
declined to 7.4% in the second quarter of 1996 from 9.1% in the second quarter
of 1995. This decline as a percentage of net revenue is a result of revenue
growth and economies of scale achieved through the leveraging of corporate staff
across a higher revenue base.
Provision for Doubtful Accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts
increased $650,000 to $1,337,000 in the second quarter of 1996 from $687,000 in
the second quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, the
provision for doubtful accounts decreased to 2.1% in the second quarter of 1996
from 2.2% in the second quarter of 1995. The provision for doubtful accounts is
influenced by the amount of net operating revenues generated from non-
governmental payor sources in addition to the relative percentage of accounts
receivable by aging category. Due to the significant acquisition activity since
the second quarter of 1995, the percentage of accounts receivable, for which the
Company provision methodology will be applied, in the more recent aging
categories has increased, causing a corresponding decrease in the provision as a
percentage of revenues.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
$2,158,000 to $3,572,000 in the second quarter of 1996 from $1,414,000 in the
second quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation
and amortization increased to 5.5% in the second quarter of 1996 from 4.6% in
the second quarter of 1995. The increase was attributable to goodwill, other
intangibles and fixed assets recorded through significant acquisition activity
and increased depreciation from new center leaseholds and routine capital
expenditures.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $5,308,000 to $11,556,000
in the second quarter of 1996 from $6,248,000 in the second quarter of 1995. As
a percentage of net operating revenues, operating income decreased to 17.9% in
the second quarter of 1996 from 20.4% in the second quarter of 1995. This
decrease in operating income is primarily due to an increase in facilities
expense and depreciation and amortization as a percentage of net operating
revenue partially offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses as
a percentage of net operating revenues.
Interest Expense/Interest Income. In connection with the Total Renal
Care Holdings, Inc.'s ("TRCH" or the "Company") reorganization in 1994 and the
implementation of the Company's growth strategy, the Company incurred
substantial debt, some of which requires interest to be paid in cash and most of
which is recognized as non-cash interest expense. Interest expense, net of
interest income, decreased $1,329,000 in the second quarter of 1996 from
$2,385,000 in the second quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating
revenues, interest expense, net of interest income, decreased to 1.6% in the
second quarter of 1996 from 7.8% in the second quarter of 1995. Cash interest
expense during the second quarter of 1996 was $601,000 and non-cash interest
during the same period was $1,637,000 versus $260,000 and $2,242,000 in the
second quarter of 1995, respectively. The decrease in the second quarter of 1996
non-cash interest expense was due primarily to a scheduled accretion offset by
the redemption of 35% of the accreted value of the Company's senior subordinated
discount notes (the "Discount Notes") in December 1995. The increase in cash
interest expense was due primarily to ae under the Company's senior credit
facility (the "Senior Credit Facility") to fund the Company's acquisition of the
Nephrology Services Business of Caremark International, Inc. (the "Caremark
Acquisition"). The increase in interest income was due to investments of excess
cash generated from the Company's equity public offering, completed April 3,
1996, placed in short-term high-grade instruments.
Provision for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased
$2,758,000 to $4,110,000 in the second quarter of 1996 from $1,352,000 in the
second quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, provision for
income taxes increased to 6.4% in the second quarter of 1996 from 4.4% in the
second quarter of 1995 and the effective tax rate increased slightly to 41.8%
from 41.6% over the same period. The effective tax rate is influenced by the mix
of operations in states with varying tax rates and the taxable income earned by
minority interests recognized in two subsidiary corporations. The increase as a
percentage of net operating revenues was primarily due to the increased
profitability of the Company in the second quarter of 1996 versus the same
period in the prior year.
Minority Interests. Minority interests represent the pretax net income
earned by physicians who directly or indirectly own minority interests in all of
the Company's partnership affiliates and the net income in two of the Company's
corporate subsidiaries. Minority interests increased $51,000 to $664,000 in the
second quarter of 1996 from $613,000 in the second quarter of 1995. As a
percentage of net operating revenues, minority interest decreased to 1.0% in the
second quarter of 1996 from 2.0% in the second quarter of 1995. This decrease in
minority interest as a percentage of net operating revenues is a result of a
relative proportionate decrease in the formation of partnership affiliates and
subsidiaries as a percentage of total new acquisitions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1995
Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 increased $58,727,000 to $114,820,000 from $56,093,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1995 representing a 104.7% increase. Of this
increase $46,470,000 was due to increased treatments from acquisitions, existing
facility growth and from de novo developments. The remainder was due to an
increase in net operating revenues per treatment, $233.51 in the first six
months of 1996 compared to $215.70 in the first six months of
1995, and an increase in affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees.
The increase in operating revenues per treatment was due to the addition of the
Company's ESRD laboratory, increased ancillary utilization primarily in the
administration of EPO, an overall increase in average reimbursement rates,and
the opening of an IV and oral pharmaceutical programsprogram and an access management
program.
Facility Operating Expenses. Facility operating expenses increased
$40,227,000$25,590,000 to $76,647,000$49,474,000 in the first six monthsthird quarter of 1996 from $36,420,000$23,884,000 in the
first six monthsthird quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, facility
operating expenses increased to 66.8%67.5% in the first six monthsthird quarter of 1996 from 64.9%63.8% in
the first six monthsthird quarter of 1995 due to the significant amount of recent acquisitionacquisitions
and de novo development activity with an operating expense structure that is
initially higher due to integration costs incurred in the first few months of
operations coupled with a lower base of revenue generated until the Company's
ancillary programs are added, leading to an overall lower operating margin.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased $3,501,000$1,836,000 to $8,701,000$4,943,000 in the first six monthsthird quarter of 1996 from $5,200,000$3,107,000
in the first six monthsthird quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, general
and administrative expenses declined to 7.6%6.7% in the third quarter of 1996 from
8.3% in the first six months of 1996 from 9.3% in the first sixnine months of 1995. This decline as a percentage of net
revenue is a result of revenue growth and economies of scale achieved through
the leveraging of corporate staff across a higher revenue base.
Provision for Doubtful Accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts
increased $1,067,000$802,000 to $2,333,000$1,559,000 in the third quarter of 1996 from $757,000 in
the third quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, the
provision for doubtful accounts increased slightly to 2.1% in the third quarter
of 1996 from 2.0% in the third quarter of 1995. As a result of the recent
acquisitions, the percentage of accounts receivable has increased as the change
in ownership process, which can take approximately 30-90 days to occur, must be
completed on newly acquired facilities before any billing can be submitted or
paid.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased
$2,340,000 to $4,231,000 in the third quarter of 1996 from $1,891,000 in the
third quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, depreciation
and amortization increased to 5.8% in the third quarter of 1996 from 5.1% in the
third quarter of 1995. The increase was attributable to goodwill, other
intangibles and fixed assets recorded through acquisition activity and increased
depreciation from new center leaseholds and routine capital expenditures.
Operating Income. Operating income increased $5,350,000 to $13,126,000 in
the first sixnine months of 1996 from $1,266,000$7,776,000 in the third quarter of 1995. As a
percentage of net operating revenues, operating income decreased to 17.9% in the
third quarter of 1996 from 20.1% in the first sixnine months of 1995. This decrease
in operating income is primarily due to an increase in facility operating costs
as a percentage of net operating revenue as discussed above.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, decreased
$1,415,000 to $1,325,000 in the third quarter of 1996 from $2,740,000 in the
third quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, interest
expense, net of interest income, decreased to 1.8% in the third quarter of 1996
from 7.3% in the third quarter of 1995. Cash interest expense during the third
quarter of 1996 was $551,000 and non-cash interest during the same period was
$1,168,000 versus $504,000 and $2,309,000 in the third quarter of 1995,
respectively. The decrease in the third quarter of 1996 non-cash interest
expense was due primarily to the redemption of 35% of the accreted value of the
Company's Discount Notes in December 1995 and the additional repurchase of 27.4
million, at maturity, in July 1996. The increase in cash interest expense was
due primarily to borrowings made under the Company's Senior Credit Facility to
fund the Company's acquisitions and to repurchase additional Discount Notes
during the third quarter of 1996. The increase in interest income was due to
investments of excess cash generated from the Company's initial public offering
and secondary equity offering placed in short-term high-grade instruments.
Provisions for Income Taxes. Provision for income taxes increased
$2,612,000 to $4,386,000 in the third quarter of 1996 from $1,774,000 in the
third quarter of 1995. As a percentage of net operating revenues, provision for
income taxes increased to 6.0% in the third quarter of 1996 from 4.7% in the
third quarter of 1995 and the effective tax rate decreased to 40.2% from 41.7%
over the same period. The increase as a percentage of net operating revenues was
primarily due to the increased profitability of the Company in the first nine
months of 1996 versus the same period in the prior year.
Minority Interest. Minority interests increased $102,000 to $879,000 in the
third quarter of 1996 from $777,000 in the first nine months of 1995. As a
percentage of net operating revenues, minority interest decreased to 1.2% in the
third quarter of 1996 from 2.1% in the first nine months of 1995. This decrease
in minority interest as a percentage of net operating revenues is a result of a
relative proportionate decrease in the formation of partnership affiliates and
subsidiaries as a percentage of total new acquisitions.
Extraordinary Loss. In July and September 1996 the Company retired all
outstanding Discount Notes for an aggregate payment of $68.4 million (including
consent payments of $1.1 million). The debt retirement resulted in an
extraordinary loss, net of tax, of $7.7 million during the third quarter of
1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 Compared to Nine Months Ended
September 30, 1995
Net Operating Revenues. Net operating revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 increased $94,645,000 to $188,153,000 from $93,508,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1995 representing a 101.2% increase. Of this
increase, $84,665,000 was due to increased treatments from acquisitions,
existing facility growth and from de novo developments. The remainder was due to
an increase in net operating revenues per treatment, $233.07 in the first nine
months of 1996 compared to $220.71 in the first nine months of 1995, and an
increase in affiliated and unaffiliated facility management fees. The increase

revenues, the provision for doubtful accounts decreased to 2.0% in the first
sixnine months of 1996 from 2.3%2.1% in the first sixnine months of 1995. Due to the
significant acquisition activity since the first sixnine months of 1995, the
percentage of accounts receivable, for which the Company provision methodology
will be applied, in the more recent aging categories has increased, causing a
corresponding decrease in the provision as a percentage of revenues .revenues.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $108,053,000,
including cash of $39,969,000. The Company intends to finance its working
capital needs, as well as purchases of additional property and equipment for the
operation of its existing facilities, from cash generated by operations and
borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility.
Net cash usedprovided by operating activities was $8,174,000$1,973,000 for the first sixnine
months of 1996. Net cash usedprovided by operating activities consists of the
Company's net income, increased by non-cash expenses such as depreciation,
amortization, non-cash interest, and the provision for doubtful accounts, and
adjusted by changes in components of working capital, primarily accounts
receivable, in the first sixnine months of 1996. Net cash used in investing
activities was $91,514,000$141,219,000 for the first sixnine months of 1996. The Company's
principal uses of cash in investing activities have been related to
acquisitions, purchases of new equipment and leasehold improvements for the
Company's outpatient facilities, as well as the development of new outpatient
facilities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $109,476,000$114,505,000, of
which the primary source of financing were $110,079,000 net proceeds from sale
of common stock used to finance the Caremark
Acquisition and the development of new facilities.$33,335,000 net borrowings on bank credit facility. The
remaining cash required for other acquisitions, de novo developments and
working capital needs were funded by the Company's available cash. As a
result, cash increased by $9,788,000$24,741,000 in the first sixnine months of 1996.
On April 3,In July 1996, the Company repurchased $27.4 million of the outstanding
Discount Notes for $28.4 million. In September 1996, the Company completed a
tender offer for its Discount Notes pursuant to which it purchased all
outstanding Discount Notes, with a principal amount of $37.6 million at
maturity, for $38.9 million and made aggregate consent payments of $1.1 million.
The repurchase and tender offer resulted in an equityextraordinary loss, net of tax,
of $7.7 million during the third quarter of 1996.
Effective October 17, 1996, the Company refinanced its prior bank credit
facility with the Senior Credit Facility, which permits borrowings of up to
$400,000,000. Under the Senior Credit Facility, up to $50,000,000 may be used in
connection with letters of credit, and up to $15,000,000 in short-term funds may
be borrowed the same day notice is given to the banks under a "Swing Line"
facility. In general, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest
at one of two floating rates selected by the Company: (i) the Alternate Base
Rate (defined as the higher of The Bank of New York's prime rate or the federal
funds rate plus 0.5%); and (ii) Adjusted LIBOR (defined as the 30-, 60-, 90- or
180-day London Interbank Offered Rate, adjusted for statutory reserves) plus a
margin that ranges from 0.45% to 1.25% depending on the Company's leverage
ratio. Swing Line borrowings bear interest at either a rate negotiated by the
Company and the banks at the time of borrowing or, if no rate is negotiated and
agreed, the Alternate Base Rate. Maximum borrowings under the Senior Credit
Facility will be reduced by $50,000,000 on September 30, 2000, $75,000,000 on
September 30, 2001, and another $75,000,000 on September 30, 2002, and the
Senior Credit Facility terminates on September 30, 2003. The Senior Credit
Facility contains financial and operating covenants including, among other
things, requirements that the Company maintain certain financial ratios and
satisfy certain financial tests, and imposes limitations on the Company's
ability to make capital expenditures, to incur other indebtedness and to pay
dividends. As of the date hereof, the Company is in compliance with all such
covenants.
As of September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $85,254,000,
including cash of $5,440,000. In October 1996, the Company commenced a public
offering providing
$110.1 million of netwhich is anticipated to close in November. Net proceeds to the Company. On August 14,Company
from this offering are approximately $18.2 million.
The Company anticipates that its aggregate capital requirements for
purchases of equipment and leasehold improvements for outpatient facilities
after September 30, 1996 through December 31, 1996 will be approximately $6.8
million.
The Company's strategy is to continue to expand its operations both through
development of de novo centers and through acquisitions. The development of a
typical outpatient facility generally requires $700,000 for initial
construction and equipment and $200,000 for working capital. Based on the
Company's experience, a de novo facility typically achieves operating
profitability, before depreciation and amortization, by the 12th to 15th month
of operation. However, the period of time for a development facility to break
even is dependent on many factors which can vary significantly from facility
to facility, and, therefore, the Company's past experience may not be
indicative of the performance of future developed facilities. The Company is
currently developing eight new facilities.
During the period January 1, 1996 through September 30, 1996, the Company
received firm commitmentspaid approximately $128.4 million in consideration for acquisitions, including
approximately $49.0 million for the Caremark Acquisition. From October 1, 1996
to increase its Senior Credit Facility to $100
million. On December 7, 1995 the Company redeemed 35% of the then accreted value
of its Discount Notes.
Subsequent to JuneOctober 30, 1996, the Company completed acquisitions of eight3 facilities for
consideration of $32.9$17.5 million of which $32.1$4.7 million was paid in cash;cash, the
remainder in the issuance of common stock. Alsoa letter of credit under its Senior Credit Facility
to secure a subsequent cash payment to be made in July 1996,
the first half of 1997. The
Company repurchased an additional $27.4 millionhas signed letters of intent in which it has agreed to purchase six
centers servicing approximately 300 patients and has agreed to purchase the
outstanding Discount
Notes,minority interest at maturity, for $28.4 million. The remaining Discount Notes after the
transaction will accrete to $37.6 million on August 15, 1997 at which point cash
interest will begin to accrue. The outstanding Discount Notes are due August 15,
2004.one of its existing centers.
The Company believes that it will be able to fund all capital
requirements, including interest on the remaining Discount Notes andnet proceeds from its October 1996 equity
offering, borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, with cash generated from
operations and other current sources of financing.financing will be sufficient to meet the
Company's need for capital for the foreseeable future, including working
capital, purchases of additional property and equipment for the operation of its
existing facilities, and interest on the Senior Credit Facility. To continue its
growth strategy, however, the Company may need to issue additional debt or
equity securities. There can be no assurance that additional financing and
capital, if and when required, will be available on terms acceptable to the
Company or at all.

RISK FACTORS
In evaluating the Company, its business and its financial position the
following risk factors should be carefully considered in addition to the other
information contained herein. The following factors could affect the Company's
actual future results and could cause them to differ from any forward-looking
statements made by or on behalf of the Company.
DEPENDENCE ON MEDICARE, MEDICAID AND OTHER SOURCES OF REIMBURSEMENT
The Company is reimbursed for dialysis services primarily at fixed
rates established in advance under the Medicare End Stage Renal Disease program.
Under this program, once a patient becomes eligible for Medicare reimbursement,
Medicare is responsible for payment of 80% of the composite rates determined by
the Health Care Financing Administration ("HCFA") for dialysis treatments. Since
1972, qualified patients suffering from chronic kidney failure, also known as
ESRD,end stage renal disease ("ESRD") have been entitled to Medicare benefits
regardless of age or financial circumstances. The Company estimates that
approximately 62% of itits net patient revenues during its fiscal year ended May
31, 1995, and approximately 60% during the seven months ended December 31, 1995 and
60% during the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 1996 were funded by Medicare.
Since 1983, numerous Congressional actions have resulted in changes in the
Medicare composite reimbursement rate from a national average of $138 per
treatment in 1983 to a low of $125 per treatment on average in 1986 and to
approximately $126 per treatment on average at present. The Company is not able
to predict whether future rate changes will be made. Reductions in composite
rates could have a material adverse effect on the Company's revenues and net
earnings. Furthermore, increases in operating costs that are subject to
inflation, such as labor and supply costs, without a compensating increase in
prescribed rates, may adversely affect the Company's earnings in the future. The
Company is also unable to predict whether certain services, as to which the
Company is currently separately reimbursed, may in the future be included in the
Medicare composite rate.
Since June 1, 1989, the Medicare ESRD program has provided
reimbursement for the administration to dialysis patients of EPO.erythropoietin
("EPO"). EPO is beneficial in the treatment of anemia, a medical complication
frequently experienced by dialysis patients. Many of the Company's dialysis
patients receive EPO. Revenues from EPO (the substantial majority of which are
reimbursed through Medicare and Medicaid programs) were approximately $18.2
million, or 18% of net patientoperating revenues, in its fiscal year ended May 31, 1995;1995
and were $18.0 million, or 20% of net patientoperating revenues, during the seven
months ended December 31, 1995;1995 and approximately $21.9$37.3 million, or 19%20% of net patientoperating
revenues forduring the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 1996. EPO reimbursement
significantly affects the Company's net income. Medicare reimbursement for EPO
was reduced from $11 to $10 per 1,000 units for services rendered after December
31, 1993. EPO is produced by a single manufacturer, and any interruption of
supply or product cost increases could adversely affect the Company's
operations.
The Company provides certain of its patients with intradialytic
parenteral nutrition ("IDPN"), a nutritional supplement administered during
dialysis to patients suffering from nutritional deficiencies. The Company has
historically been reimbursed by the Medicare program for the administration of
IDPN therapy. Beginning in 1993, HCFA designated four durable medical equipment
regional carriers ("DMERCs") to process reimbursement claims for IDPN therapy.
The DMERCs recently established new, more stringent medical policies for reimbursement of
IDPN therapy which were adopted by HCFA in April 1996, and many dialysis
providers' claims have
subsequently been denied or delayed. Where appropriate, the Company
has appealed and continues to appeal such denials. In addition, the DMERCs are
reportedly reviewing the existing IDPN medical policies. The final outcome of thesome
appeals and the anticipated review is uncertain and may ultimately reduce
the number of patients eligible to receive reimbursement for IDPN therapy.uncertain. The Company's allowance for
doubtful accounts reflects a reserve that the Company believes is adequate
against the possibility of an adverse outcome. The Company has continued to
provide IDPN therapy only to a select number of its patients pending clarification of
this policy. A significant reduction inwhom the number of patients eligibleCompany
believes meet the most stringent guidelines. Although the Company fully expects
to receive reimbursement for IDPN therapy or the amount of Medicare reimbursement
therefore would have an adverse effectbe paid on the Company's net operating revenues
and net income.
16outstanding claims, there can be no certainty to that effect.

All of the states in which the Company currently operates dialysis
facilities provide Medicaid (or comparable) benefits to qualified recipients to
supplement their Medicare entitlement. The Company estimates that approximately
8% of its net patient revenues during the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, and 7% of
its net patientoperating revenues during the seven months ended December 31, 1995 and
6% of its net operating revenues during the nine month period ended September
30, 1996 were funded by Medicaid or comparable state programs. The Medicaid
programs are subject to statutory and regulatory changes, administrative
rulings, interpretations of policy and governmental funding restrictions, all of
which may have the effect of decreasing program payments, increasing costs or
modifying the way the Company operates its dialysis business.
Approximately 30% of the Company's net patient revenues during the
fiscal year ended May 31, 1995, and 33% during the seven month period ended December
31, 1995 and 34% during the nine month period ended September 30, 1996 were from
sources other than Medicare and Medicaid. These sources include payments from
third-party, non-government payors, at rates that generally exceed the Medicare
and Medicaid rates, and payments from hospitals with which the Company has
contracts for the provision of acute dialysis treatments. Any restriction or
reduction of the Company's ability to charge for such services at rates in
excess of those paid by Medicare would adversely affect the Company's net
operating revenues and net income. The Company is unable to quantify or predict
the degree, if any, of the risk of reductions in payments under these various
payment plans. The Company is a party to non-
exclusivenon-exclusive agreements with certain
third-party payors and termination of such third-party agreements could have an
adverse effect on the Company.
OPERATIONS SUBJECT TO GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The Company is subject to extensive regulation by both the federal
government and the states in which the Company conducts its business. The
Company is subject to the illegal remuneration provisions of the Social
Security Act and similar state laws, which impose civil and criminal sanctions
on persons who solicit, offer, receive or pay any remuneration, directly or
indirectly, for referring a patient for treatment that is paid for in whole or
in part by Medicare, Medicaid or similar state programs. In July 1991 and
November 1992, the federal government published regulations that provide
exceptions or "safe harbors" for certain business transactions. Transactions
that are structured within the safe harbors are deemed not to violate the
illegal remuneration provisions. Transactions that do not satisfy all elements
of a relevant safe harbor do not necessarily violate the illegal remuneration
statute, but may be subject to greater scrutiny by enforcement agencies.
Neither the arrangements between the Company and the physician directors of
its facilities ("Medical Directors") nor the minority ownership interests of
referring physicians in certain of the Company's dialysis facilities fall
within the protection afforded by these safe harbors. Although the Company has
never been challenged under these statutes and believes it complies in all
material respects with these and all other applicable laws and regulations,
there can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to change its
practices or relationships with its Medical Directors or with referring
physicians holding minority ownership interests or that the Company will not
experience material adverse effects as a result of any such challenge.
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 includes certain
provisions ("Stark I") that restrict physician referrals for clinical laboratory
services to entities with which a physician or an immediate family member has a
"financial relationship." In August 1995, HCFA published regulations
interpreting Stark I. The regulations specifically provide that services
furnished in an ESRD facility that are included in the composite billing rate
are excluded formfrom the coverage of Stark I. The Company believes that the
language and legislative history of Stark I indicate that Congress did not
intend to include laboratory services provided incidental to dialysis services
within the Stark I prohibition; however, laboratory services not included in the
Medicare composite rate could be included within the coverage of Stark I.
Violations of Stark I are punishable by civil penalties which may include
exclusion or suspension of a provider from future participation in Medicare and
Medicaid programs and substantial fines. Due to the breadth of the statutory
provisions, it is possible that the Company's practices might be challenged
under this law. Any suchA broad interpretation of Stark I would apply to the Company's
competitors as well.
1710
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 includes certain
provisions ("Stark II") that restrict physician referrals for certain
"designated health services" to entities with which a physician or an immediate
family member has a "financial relationship." The Company believes that the
language and legislative history of Stark II indicate that Congress did not
intend to include dialysis services and the services and items provided incident
to dialysis services within the Stark II prohibitions; however, certain
services, including the provision of, or arrangement and assumption of financial
responsibility for, outpatient prescription drugs, including EPO, and clinical
laboratory services, could be construed as designated health services within the
meaning of Stark II. Violations of Stark II are punishable by civil penalties,
which may include exclusion or suspension of athe provider from future
participation in Medicare and Medicaid programs and substantial fines. Due to
the breadth of the statutory provisions and the absence of regulations or court
decisions addressing the specific arrangements by which the Company conducts its
business, it is possible that the Company's practices might be challenged under
these laws. A broad interpretation of Stark II to include dialysis services and
items provided incident to dialysis services would apply to the Company's
competitors as well.
A California statute that became effective January 1, 1995 makes it
unlawful for a physician who has, or a member of whose immediate family has, a
financial interest with or in an entity to refer a person to that entity for,
among other services, laboratory services. The Company currently operates
centers in California, which accounted for a significant percentage of net
operating revenues for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1995 and the seven months
ended December 31, 1995. Although the Company does not believe that the statute
is intended to apply to laboratory services that are provided incident to
dialysis services, it is possible that the statute could be interpreted to apply
to such laboratory services. If the California statute were so interpreted, the
Company would be required to restructure some or all of its relationships with
referring physicians who serve as Medical Directors of the Company's facilities
and with the physicians who hold minority interests in certain of the Company's
facilities.
At present, ESRD patients eligible for California's Medicaid program,
MediCal, are reimbursed for their transportation costs relating to ESRD
treatments. From time to time, the Company pays Medicare supplemental insurance
premiums for patients with a financial need. If this practice is deemed to
violate applicable federal or state law, the Company may be forced to halt this
practice and the Company cannot predict the effect the foregoing would have on
the desire of such patients to use the Company's services.
A number of proposals for health care reform have been made in recent
years, some of which have included radical changes in the health care system.
Health care reform could result in material changes in the financing and
regulation of the health care business, and the Company is unable to predict the
effect of such changes on its future operations. It is uncertain what
legislation on health care reform, if any, will ultimately be implemented or
whether other changes in the administration or interpretation of governmental
health care programs will occur. There can be no assurance that future health
care legislation or other changes in the administration or interpretation of
governmental health care programs will not have a material adverse effect on the
results of operations of the Company.
RISKS INHERENT IN GROWTH STRATEGY
Following the Company's reorganization in August 1994 Transaction, the Company began an aggressive
growth strategy. This growth strategy is dependent on the continued availability
of suitable acquisition candidates and subjects the Company to the risks
inherent in assessing the value, strengths and weaknesses of acquisition
candidates, integrating and managing the operations of acquired companies and identifying suitable
locations for additional facilities. The Company's growth is expected to place
significant demands on the Company's financial and management resources. In
recent years, acquisition prices and competition for facilities has increased.
To the extent the Company is unable to acquire or develop facilities in a cost-
effective manner, its ability to expand its business and enhance results of
operations would be adversely affected. In addition, although the Company
believes it has a demonstrable track record of integrating the operations of
acquired companies with its historic operations, the process for integrating
acquired
11
operations, particularly for newly acquired regional clusters, presents a
significant challenge to the Company's management and may lead to
unanticipated costs or a diversion of management's attention from day-to-day
operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
continue its growth strategy or that this strategy will ultimately prove
successful. A failure to successfully continue its growth strategy could have
an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.
COMPETITION
The dialysis industry is fragmented and highly competitive,
particularly in terms of acquisitions of existing dialysis facilities and
developing relationships with referring physicians. Certain of the Company's
competitors have substantially greater financial resources than the Company and
may compete with the Company for acquisitions of facilities in markets targeted
by the Company. Competition for acquisitions has increased the cost of acquiring
existing dialysis facilities. The Company has from time to time experienced
competition from referring physicians who have opened their own dialysis
facilities. A portion of the Company's business consists of monitoring and
providing supplies for ESRD treatments in patients' homes. Certain physicians
also provide similar services and, if the number of such physicians were to
increase, the Company could be adversely affected.
18
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
The Company is dependent upon the services and management experience
of the Company's executive officers, and accordingly has entered into employment
agreements with, and provided a variety of equity incentives to, each of these
executives. The Company's continued growth depends upon its ability to attract
and retain skilled employees, in particular highly skilled nurses, for whom
competition is intense. The Company believes that its future success will also will
be significantly dependent uponon its ability to attract and retain qualified
physicians to serve as Medical Directors of its dialysis facilities. The Company
does not carry key-man life insurance on any of its officers.
DEPENDENCE ON PHYSICIAN REFERRALS
The Company's facilities are dependent upon referrals of ESRD patients
for treatment by physicians specializing in nephrology and practicing in the
communities served by the Company's dialysis facilities. As is generally true in
the dialysis industry, at each facility one or a few physicians account for all
or a significant portion of the patient referral base. The loss of one or more
key referring physicians at a particular facility could have a material adverse
effect on the operations of that facility and could adversely affect the
Company's overall operations. Referring physicians own minority interests in 1221
of the Company's dialysis facilities. If such interests are deemed to violate
applicable federal or state law, such physicians may be forced to dispose of
their ownership interests. The Company cannot predict the effect such
dispositions would have on its business. SIGNIFICANT INFLUENCE BY DLJMB
DLJ Merchant Banking Partners, L.P. and certain of its affiliates
("DLJMB") own approximately 10% of the outstanding Common Stock of the Company.
In addition, pursuantSee "Risk Factors--Operations Subject
to a Shareholders Agreement, DLJMB has the right to
nominate four of the five members of the Company's Board of Directors. As a
result of its significant stock ownership and its rights under such Shareholders
Agreement, DLJMB will be able to influence significantly the outcome of certain
corporate transactions, including any "going private" transaction, merger,
consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets.
