NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1997
1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for any
interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other
interim period or for the full year. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the June 30, 1996 consolidated financial statements.
2. Net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the period, which were 23,430,000
and 20,721,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively and
24,335,000 and 20,791,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.
3. In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS 128"). SFAS
128 supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 "Earnings Per Share"
("APB 15") and specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure
requirements for earnings per share ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 replaces "primary" and
"fully diluted" EPS under APB 15 with "basic" and "diluted" EPS. Unlike primary
EPS, basic EPS excludes the dilutive effects of options, warrants, and other
convertible securities. Dilutive EPS reflects the potential dilution of
securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to fully
diluted EPS. However, under SFAS 128, the Company would use the average market
price for its stock during the reporting period to determine the cost of options
as opposed to the greater of the closing price at the end of the period or the
average market price during the period, as currently required by APB 15. SFAS
128 is effective for years ending after December 15, 1997. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of the implementation of SFAS 128.

Forward-Looking Statements
Information provided in this Report on Form 10-Q may contain, and the
Company may from time to time disseminate material and make statements which may
contain "forward-looking" information, as that term is defined by the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). These forward-looking
statements may relate to anticipated financial performance, business prospects
and similar matters. The words "expects", "anticipates", "believes", and similar
words generally signify a "forward-looking" statement. These cautionary
statements are being made pursuant to the provisions of the Act and with the
intention of obtaining the benefit of "safe-harbor" provisions of the Act. The
reader is cautioned that all forward-looking statements are necessarily
speculative and there are certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual events or results to differ materially from those referred to in such
forward-looking statements. Among the factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially are: increased competition; technological and scientific
developments, including appetite suppressants and other drugs which can be used
in weight-loss programs; increases in cost of food or services; lack of market
acceptance of additional products and services; legislative and regulatory
restrictions or actions; effectiveness of marketing and advertising programs;
prevailing domestic and foreign economic conditions; and the risk factors set
forth from time to time in the Company's annual reports and other reports and
filings with the SEC. In particular, the reader should carefully review the
cautionary statements contained under the caption "Forward-Looking Statements"
in Item 1 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June
30, 1996.
Quarter Ended March 31, 1997 as Compared to Quarter Ended March 31, 1996
Revenues from United States Company-owned operations decreased 10% from
$83,981,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to $75,790,000 for the quarter
ended March 31, 1997. At March 31, 1996 there were 484 United States
Company-owned Centres in operation compared to 527 at March 31, 1997. The
increase in United States Company-owned Centres reflects the Company's
acquisition of 38 Centres from a franchisee in September 1996 and the net
opening of five Centres between the periods. Average revenue per United States
Company-owned Centre decreased 17% from $174,000 for the quarter ended March 31,
1996 to $144,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. Service revenues from
United States Company-owned operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1997
decreased 2%, to $5,973,000 from $6,096,000 for the comparable year earlier
period. This decrease in service revenues was due to a 4% decrease (12% on an
average per centre basis) in the number of new participants enrolled in the
Program. The decline in new enrollments also resulted in a decline in the number
of active participants in the Program and led to a 10% decline in product sales,
which consists primarily of food products, from United States Company-owned
operations from $77,885,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 to $69,817,000
for the quarter ended March 31, 1997. Revenues from foreign Company-owned
operations increased 18% from $10,378,000 to $12,277,000 for the quarters ended
March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, primarily due to an increase in the
number of new enrollments in the Program in foreign Centres. There were 102
foreign Company-owned Centres at March 31, 1996 compared to 105 at March 31,
1997. There was a 2% weighted average increase in the Australian and Canadian
currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar between the periods.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
(Continued)
In April 1996, the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA")
approved dexfenfluramine, commonly referred to by its trade name Redux, for use
as a doctor-prescribed medication for the treatment of obesity. The Company
believes that the extensive publicity that accompanied the introduction of Redux
heightened the public's interest in weight loss pharmaceuticals (including a
combination of phentermine and fenfluramine commonly known as "phen-fen") and
appears to be responsible for the softened demand being experienced by the
Company for its products and services. During the quarter ended September 30,
1996, the Company began test marketing, on a very limited basis, a new program
incorporating the weight-loss medications Redux and phen-fen in conjunction with
the traditional elements of its weight management program. In late-December
1996, following evaluation of test market results, the Company added this new
program to virtually all United States Company-owned Centres.
Costs and expenses of United States Company-owned operations increased
4% from $68,352,000 to $71,358,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and
1997, respectively. Costs and expenses of United States Company-owned operations
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 were reduced by a $2,200,000 credit that
resulted from the Company's successful litigation recovery from one of its
insurance carriers. The increase in costs and expenses for the quarter ended
March 31, 1997 reflects the additional costs, principally comprised of physician
and related professional medical technicians, associated with offering the new
program component utilizing weight loss medications and increased compensation
expense related to staffing levels associated with the introduction of this
program. The effect of these increased costs on total costs and expenses for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 was offset, in part, by the decreased variable
costs, principally product costs, related to the lower level of operations.
Costs and expenses of United States Company-owned operations as a percentage of
United States Company-owned revenues increased from 81% to 94% between the
periods principally due to the increased expenses of the new program component
utilizing weight loss medications and the increased compensation expense related
to staffing levels associated with the introduction of this program, the higher
proportion of fixed costs when compared to the reduced level of revenues, and
the $2,200,000 credit which reduced the percentage in the prior period. After
including the allocable portion of general and administrative expenses, United
States Company-owned operations incurred an operating loss of $601,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared to operating income of $10,756,000 for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996. Costs and expenses of foreign Company-owned
operations increased 9% from $9,850,000 to $10,741,000 for the quarters ended
March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, principally due to the increased variable
costs related to the higher level of operations. After including the allocable
portion of general and administrative expenses, foreign Company-owned operations
had operating income of $864,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997 compared
to an operating loss of $21,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996.
Revenues from franchise operations decreased 33% from $12,945,000 to
$8,633,000 for the quarters ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. This
decline was principally due to a 17% decrease in the number of franchise Centres
in operation, from 195 at March 31, 1996 to 161 at March 31, 1997, and a
decrease in the number of new participants enrolled in the Program at franchised
Centres resulting in reduced product sales and royalties. The decrease in the
number of franchise Centres reflects the Company's acquisition of 38 Centres
from a franchisee in September 1996.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
(Continued)
Costs and expenses of franchised operations, which consist primarily of
product costs, decreased 29% from $8,560,000 to $6,073,000 for the quarters
ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, principally because of the reduced
level of franchise operations. The increase in franchise costs and expenses as a
percentage of franchise revenues was principally due to certain advertising
incentives granted to franchisees in the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
General and administrative expenses decreased 2% from $7,325,000 to
$7,194,000 but increased from 6.8% to 7.4% of total revenues for the quarters
ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The decrease was principally due to
a decrease in compensation expenses.
The elements discussed above combined to result in a 90% decrease in
operating income from $13,217,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared
to $1,334,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1997.
Other income decreased 54% from $692,000 to $317,000 for the quarters
ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. This decline was principally due to
a decrease in the average balance of cash investments between the periods,
substantially related to the Company's acquisition of 3,464,189 shares of its
common stock at a cost of $34,642,000 in late March 1996.
The Company and complaint counsel for the Federal Trade Commission have
entered into a proposed Consent Order settling all contested issues raised in a
complaint filed in September 1993 against the Company alleging that the Company
violated the Federal Trade Commission Act by the use and content of certain
advertisements for the Company's weight loss program featuring testimonials,
claims for the program's success and safety, and statements as to the program's
costs to participants. The proposed Consent Order does not admit any issue of
fact or law or any violation by the Company of any law or regulation, and does
not involve payment by the Company of any civil money penalty, damages, or other
financial relief. The proposed Consent Order requires certain procedures and
disclosures in connection with the Company's advertisements of its products and
services. If the full Commission accepts the proposed Consent Order it will be
published for public comment and, unless modified or withdrawn on the basis of
public comments, it thereafter will become effective. The Company does not
believe that compliance with the proposed Consent Order will have a material
adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements or its current
advertising and marketing practices.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL RESULTS
Nine Months Ended March 31, 1997 as Compared to Nine Months Ended March 31, 1996
Revenues from United States Company-owned operations decreased 11% from
$228,843,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to $204,602,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997. At March 31, 1996 there were 484 United States
Company-owned Centres in operation compared to 527 at March 31, 1997. The
increase in United States Company-owned Centres reflects the Company's
acquisition of 38 Centres from a franchisee in September 1996 and the net
opening of five centres between the periods. Average revenue per United States
Company-owned Centre decreased 16% from $476,000 for the nine months ended March
31, 1996 to $399,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997. Service revenues
from United States Company-owned operations for the nine months ended March 31,
1997 decreased 6% to $15,445,000 from $16,356,000 for the comparable year
earlier period. This decrease in service revenues was primarily due to a 19%
decrease (24% on an average per centre basis) in the number of new participants
enrolled in the Program between the periods, offset, in part, by an increase in
the average service fee charged per new participant. The decline in new
enrollments also resulted in a decline in the number of active participants in
the Program and led to an 11% decline in product sales, which consists primarily
of food products, from United States Company-owned operations from $212,487,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to $189,157,000 for the nine months
ended March 31, 1997. Revenues from foreign Company-owned operations increased
24% from $30,591,000 to $38,015,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and
1997, respectively, primarily due to an increase in the number of new
enrollments in the Program. There was a 4% weighted average increase in the
Australian and Canadian currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar between the
periods.
Costs and expenses of United States Company-owned operations decreased
2% from $198,129,000 to $193,595,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996
and 1997, respectively. Costs and expenses of United States Company-owned
operations for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 were reduced by a $2,200,000
credit that resulted from the Company's successful litigation recovery from one
of its insurance carriers. The decrease in costs and expenses for the nine
months ended March 31, 1997 reflects the decreased variable costs, principally
product costs, related to the lower level of operations offset, in part, by the
additional costs, principally comprised of physician and related professional
medical technicians, associated with offering the new program component
utilizing weight loss medications and increased compensation expense related to
staffing levels associated with the introduction of this program. Costs and
expenses of United States Company-owned operations as a percentage of United
States Company-owned revenues increased from 87% to 95% between the periods
principally due to the higher proportion of fixed costs when compared to the
reduced level of revenues, the increased expenses of the new program component
utilizing weight loss medications and the increased compensation expense related
to staffing levels associated with the introduction of this program, and the
$2,200,000 credit which reduced the percentage in the prior period. After
including the allocable portion of general and administrative expenses, United
States Company-owned operations incurred an operating loss of $4,162,000 for the
nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to operating income of $16,675,000 for
the nine months ended March 31, 1996. Costs and expenses of foreign
Company-owned operations increased 8% from $29,209,000 to $31,536,000 for the
nine month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, principally
because of the increased variable costs related to the higher level of
operations. After including the allocable portion of general and administrative

expenses, foreign Company-owned operations had operating income of $4,594,000
for the nine months ended March 31, 1997 compared to an operating loss of
$215,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996.
Revenues from franchise operations decreased 26% from $36,943,000 to
$27,386,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively.
This decline was principally due to a 17% decrease in the number of franchise
Centres in operation, from 195 at March 31, 1996 to 161 at March 31, 1997 and a
decrease in number of new participants enrolled in the Program at franchised
Centres resulting in reduced product sales and royalties. The decrease in the
number of franchise Centres reflects the Company's acquisition of 38 Centres
from a franchisee in September 1996.
Costs and expenses of franchised operations, which consist primarily of
product costs, decreased 25% from $24,792,000 to $18,517,000 for the nine month
periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively, principally because of the
reduced level of franchise operations. Franchise costs and expenses as a
percentage of franchise revenues remained relatively constant at 67% for the
nine months ended March 31, 1996 compared to 68% for the nine months ended March
31, 1997.
General and administrative expenses increased 5% from $20,751,000 to
$21,718,000 and increased from 7.0% to 8.0% of total revenues for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The increase was principally
due to an increase in consulting expenses, primarily pertaining to information
systems.
The elements discussed above combined to result in an 80% decrease in
operating income from $23,496,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1996 to
$4,637,000 for the nine months ended March 31, 1997.
Other income decreased 43% from $2,286,000 to $1,300,000 for the nine
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. This decline was principally
due to a decrease in the average balance of cash investments between the
periods, substantially related to the Company's acquisition of 3,464,189 shares
of its common stock at a cost of $34,642,000 in late March 1996.
In March 1994 the Company accrued a provision for loss of $5,029,000 in
connection with the planned closure of 55 Company-owned centres, $2,529,000 of
which was designated for 30 United States centres and $2,500,000 for 25 foreign
centres. As previously reported by the Company, substantially all of the
expenses accrued in connection with the United States centres were incurred
prior to June 30, 1995. Management's original estimate of the $2,529,000
provision was comprised of $1,643,000 for lease termination costs, $622,000 for
the write-off of fixed assets and leasehold improvements, $147,000 for severance
pay to employees, and $117,000 for customer refunds. The Company actually
determined to close 51 United States Centres. Actual costs and expenses charged
against the $2,529,000 accrual were $1,329,000 for lease termination costs,
$1,151,000 for the write-off of fixed assets and leasehold improvements, $8,000
for severance pay and $41,000 for customer refunds. Additionally, the Company
expensed $106,000 in fiscal 1996 in connection with the closures. With respect
to the original $2,500,000 provision for foreign centre closures, as previously
disclosed, the results of most of these centres improved substantially during
the latter quarters of fiscal 1995. As a result, $1,843,000 was reversed during
fiscal 1995 and was reflected in fiscal 1995 operating results. During fiscal
1996 one additional foreign centre was closed. The Company, encouraged by the

operating results of the remaining foreign centres, opened three additional
foreign centres in fiscal 1997. Accordingly, $400,000 of the remaining accrual
was reversed during the quarter ended December 31, 1996. At March 31, 1997 the
amount remaining in the accrual account was not material ($138,000).
Financial Condition
At March 31, 1997, the Company had cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments of $40,005,000 compared to cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments of $50,580,000 at June 30, 1996. Sources of cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments during the nine months ended March 31,
1997 include $2,337,000 provided from operations and $5,975,000 from a note
payable to finance the purchase of the Company's executive office building. Uses
of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments during the nine months
ended March 31, 1997, include $15,604,000 for the purchase of property and
equipment (which includes $8,360,000 for the purchase of the executive office
building), $1,803,000 for the acquisition of franchised centres and $1,562,000
for the purchase of treasury stock. The Company believes that its cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments and its cash flow from operations are
adequate for its needs in the foreseeable future.
Effects of Recent Accounting Pronouncement
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" ("SFAS
128"). SFAS 128 supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 15 "Earnings
Per Share" ("APB 15") and specifies the computation, presentation, and
disclosure requirements for earnings per share ("EPS"). SFAS No. 128 replaces
"primary" and "fully diluted" EPS under APB 15 with "basic" and "diluted" EPS.
Unlike primary EPS, basic EPS excludes the dilutive effects of options,
warrants, and other convertible securities. Dilutive EPS reflects the potential
dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity, similar to
fully diluted EPS. However, under SFAS 128, the Company would use the average
market price for its stock during the reporting period to determine the cost of
options as opposed to the greater of the closing price at the end of the period
or the average market price during the period, as currently required by APB 15.
SFAS 128 is effective for years ending after December 15, 1997. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of the implementation of SFAS 128.
