              Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
                               September 30, 2001

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

The financial information included herein is unaudited unless otherwise
indicated; however, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely
of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.

The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report
on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the three month and nine month periods ended
September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the full year. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" for additional information.

On January 31, 2001, the Company entered into a marketing and equity investment
agreement with e-Nable, at a total cost of $5.0 million. The Company's
investment is being accounted for under the cost method of investments, as it
owns less than 20% of e-Nable.

Note 2: Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share equals net income divided by weighted average common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share equals net
income divided by the sum of weighted average common shares outstanding during
the period plus common stock equivalents. Common stock equivalents (2,361,564
and 3,304,333 for the three months ended and 2,792,824 and 3,708,171 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively) are shares assumed
to be issued if outstanding stock options were exercised. All appropriate share
and per share amounts have been restated for the April 12, 2000 two for one
stock split.

Note 3: Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income includes net income and other comprehensive income which
refers to those revenues, expenses, gains and losses which are excluded from net
income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on
marketable securities classified as available-for-sale.

                               HOOPER HOLMES, INC.
                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operation

Results of Operation -  Three months ended September 30, 2001 compared to
                        Three months ended September 30, 2000

Revenues for the third quarter of 2001 decreased 6.6% to $57.2 million from
$61.3 million for the third quarter of 2000. The number of paramedical
examinations performed decreased to 689,000 from 767,000. The decrease in the
number of paramedical examinations is the result of a slower than expected
recovery in the life insurance industry, an increasingly difficult economic
environment, and certain competitive issues. The volume decrease in paramedical
examinations performed was partially offset by an increase in the average
revenue per unit of service of approximately .4% for the third quarter of 2001,
compared to the third quarter of 2000. This percentage increase is the result of
an increase in services performed per examination. The number of Infolink
reports decreased to 95,000 from 102,000. The decrease in the number of Infolink
reports is the result of decreased volume resulting from a slower than expected
recovery in the life insurance industry and an increasingly difficult economic
environment. Additionally, the average price per unit of service decreased
approximately 10%, as lower priced reports from one major client represented a
greater percentage of the total Infolink reports provided.

The Company's cost of operations for the third quarter of 2001 totaled $41.5
million compared to $44.7 million for the third quarter of 2000. Cost of
operations as a percentage of revenues improved to 72.5% for the third quarter
2001, compared to the 73.0% for the third quarter 2000. The reduction, as a
percentage of revenues, is due to the Company's ability to manage its field
expenses, despite a reduction in revenue.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $ 10.9 million for the
third quarter of 2001 and the third quarter of 2000, and as a percentage of
revenue totaled 19.1% compared to 17.8%, respectively. The increase, as a
percentage of revenues, is due to lower revenue levels in the third quarter of
2001.

Accordingly, the Company's operating income decreased to $4.8 million from $5.7
million and as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 8.5% from 9.3% for the
third quarter of 2001 compared to the third quarter of 2000.

Interest expense decreased to $.05 million for the third quarter of 2001 from $
 .07 million for the third quarter 2000, due to lower interest rates on borrowed
funds. Interest income decreased to $ .9 million for the third quarter of 2001
from $ 1.2 million for the third quarter 2000, due to lower levels of invested
funds.

The effective tax rate was 42% and 43% for the quarters ended September 30, 2001
and 2000, respectively.

Net income and earnings per diluted share for the third quarter of 2001 were
$3.2 million or $.05 per diluted share versus $3.9 million or $.06 per diluted
share for the third quarter of 2000. Average diluted shares for the respective
periods were 67,306,045 and 69,425,058.

                               HOOPER HOLMES, INC.
                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operation

Results of Operation - Nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to
                       Nine months ended September 30, 2000

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 decreased 15.4% to $181.6
million from $214.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. The
number of paramedical examinations performed decreased to 2,193,000 from
2,650,000. The decrease in the number of paramedical examinations is the result
of a slower than expected recovery in the life insurance industry, an
increasingly difficult economic environment, and certain competitive issues. The
volume decrease in paramedical examinations performed was partially offset by an
increase in the average revenue per unit of service of approximately .9% for the
nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the nine months ended September
30, 2000. This percentage increase is the result of an increase in services
performed per examination. The number of Infolink reports increased slightly to
308,000 from 307,000. The increase in the number of Infolink reports is due to
increased volume of lower priced reports from one major Infolink client. The
average price per Infolink report decreased by approximately 20%, and is due to
an increase in lower priced reports from one major client which represents a
greater percentage of the total Infolink reports provided.

The Company's cost of operations for the nine month's ended September 30, 2001
totaled $130.1 million compared to $153.5 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2000. Cost of operations as a percentage of revenues increased to
71.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 71.5% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2000. Branch operating expenses for the nine months
ended September 30, 2001, are down approximately 9.0% compared to the nine
months ended September 30, 2000, however, they remain slightly higher as a
percentage of revenues, thus contributing to the modest percentage increase in
cost of sales.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $34.2 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2001 compared to $ 34.5 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000, and as a percentage of revenue totaled 18.8% compared
to 16.1%, respectively. The increase, as a percentage of revenues, is due to
lower revenue levels for the nine months ended September 30, 2001.

Accordingly, the Company's operating income decreased to $17.3 million from
$26.6 million and as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 9.5% from 12.4% for
the nine months ended September 30, 2001 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2000.

The effective tax rate was 42% and 43% for the nine months ended September 30,
2001 and 2000, respectively.

Interest expense decreased to $ .2 million for the nine months ended September
30, 2001, from $ 1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000, due
to lower interest rates on borrowed funds. Interest income decreased to $ 2.7
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, compared to $ 3.0 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

                                      - 8 -



The decrease in Other (expense) income, net, for the nine months ended September
30, 2001, as compared to September 30, 2000, is due to a one time pre-tax gain
realized in the second quarter 2000, from the sale of securities owned by the
Company of $.4 million.

Net income and earnings per diluted share for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 were $11.4 million or $.17 per diluted share versus $16.4 million or
$.24 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2000. Average
diluted shares for the respective periods were 67,820,431 and 68,234,937.

Liquidity and Financial Resources

The Company's primary sources of cash are internally generated funds, cash
equivalents, and marketable securities, as well as the Company's bank credit
facility.

On January 31, 2001, the Company entered into a marketing and equity investment
agreement with e-Nable, at a total cost of $ 5.0 million. e-Nable provides an
Internet-based business processing solutions that allow integration of data
sources, underwriting intelligence, distribution channels and insurance
products. In August 2001, the Company executed a convertible promissory note
agreement with e-Nable, to provide additional financing for up to $ 1.75
million. As of September 30, 2001, there has been no additional financing
provided to e-Nable.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September
30, 2001 was $20.6 million compared to $20.7 million for the nine month's ended
September 30, 2000. The significant sources were net income of $ 11.4 million,
$7.0 million of depreciation and amortization, and a $1.2 million increase in
accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 was
39.0 days, compared to 38.5 days for the year ended December 31, 2000, and 40.0
days at September 30, 2000.

As of September 30, 2001, the Company has outstanding borrowings against the
term loan in the amount of $ 3 million, and has no borrowings against the $ 35
million revolving loan.

The Company's current ratio at September 30, 2001 stood at 7.0:1 as compared to
7.2:1 at December 31, 2000. Inflation has not, nor is it expected to have a
material impact on the Company's financial results in 2001 and there have been
no material commitments for capital expenditures.

On May 30, 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of 2.5 million
shares of the Company's common stock during this calendar year for an aggregate
purchase price not to exceed $ 25 million. For the period ended September 30,
2001, the Company purchased 1,222,100 shares for a total cost of $ 10.1 million.

Dividends paid in February, May and August 2001 were $.0075 per share. At its
board meeting on October 24, 2001, the Company declared a quarterly dividend of
$.0075 per share.

                                      - 9 -



Management believes that the combination of cash and cash equivalents, other
working capital sources, and borrowings under the Company's credit facility
along with the anticipated cash flows from operations, will provide sufficient
capital resources for the foreseeable future.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, Business Combinations, and
Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement 141 requires
that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations
initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business
combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Statement 141 also specifies
criteria that intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business
combination must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting
that any purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted
for separately.

Statement 142 will require that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite
useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at
least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142. Statement 142
will also require that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized
over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values,
and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of.

The Company is required to adopt the provisions of Statement 141 immediately,
and Statement 142 effective January 1, 2002. Furthermore, any goodwill and any
intangible asset determined to have an indefinite useful life that are acquired
in a purchase business combination completed after June 30, 2001 will not be
amortized, but will continue to be evaluated for impairment in accordance with
the appropriate pre-Statement 142 accounting literature. Goodwill and intangible
assets acquired in business combinations completed before July 1, 2001 will
continue to be amortized prior to the Company's adoption of Statement 142.

Statement 141 will require upon adoption of Statement 142, that the Company
evaluate its existing intangible assets and goodwill that were acquired in a
prior purchase business combination, and to make any necessary reclassifications
in order to conform with the new criteria in Statement 141 for recognition apart
from goodwill. Upon adoption of Statement 142, the Company will be required to
reassess the useful lives and residual values of all intangible assets acquired
in purchase business combinations, and make any necessary amortization period
adjustments by the end of the first interim period after adoption. In addition,
to the extent an intangible asset is identified as having an indefinite useful
life, the Company will be required to test the intangible asset for impairment
in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142 within the first interim
period. Any impairment loss will be measured as of the date of adoption and
recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the
first interim period.

In connection with the transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, Statement
142 will require the Company to perform an assessment of whether there is an
indication that goodwill is impaired as of the date of adoption. To accomplish
this the Company must identify its reporting units and determine the carrying
value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including
the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the
date of adoption. The Company will then have up to six months from the date of
adoption to

                                     - 10 -



determine the fair value of each reporting unit and compare it to the reporting
unit's carrying amount. To the extent a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds
its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit's goodwill may be
impaired and the Company must perform the second step of the transitional
impairment test.

In the second step, the Company must compare the implied fair value of the
reporting unit's goodwill, determined by allocating the reporting unit's fair
value to all of its assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities in a
manner similar to a purchase price allocation in accordance with Statement 141,
to its carrying amount, both of which would be measured as of the date of
adoption. This second step is required to be completed as soon as possible, but
no later than the end of the year of adoption. Any transitional impairment loss
will be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle
in the Company's consolidated statement of earnings.

As of September 30, 2001, the Company has unamortized goodwill in the amount of
$81.5 million and unamortized identifiable intangible assets in the amount of
$12.5 million, all of which will be subject to the transition provisions of
Statements 141 and 142. Amortization expense related to goodwill was $ 3.2
million and $ 2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2000 and the nine
months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. Because of the extensive effort
needed to comply with adopting Statements 141 and 142, it is not practicable to
reasonably estimate the impact of adopting these Statements on the Company's
consolidated financial statements at the date of this report, including whether
any transitional impairment losses will be required to be recognized as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk. The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates
relates primarily to the Company's investment portfolio. The Company places its
investments with high quality issuers and, by policy, limits the amount of
credit exposure to any one issuer. The Company does not invest in portfolio
equity securities or commodities or use financial derivatives for trading
purposes. The Company's debt security portfolio represents funds held
temporarily pending use in our business and operations. The Company mitigates
their risk by investing in only high credit quality securities that it believes
to be low risk and by positioning its portfolio to respond to a significant
reduction in a credit rating of any investment issuer or guarantor. The
portfolio includes only marketable securities with active secondary or resale
markets to ensure portfolio liquidity.

The table below presents the principal amounts and related weighted average
interest rates by year of maturity for our investment portfolio as of September
30, 2001.
