To Our Shareholders

We will remember 1995 as a defining year for Hooper Holmes, one in which the
Company sharpened its operating focus and firmly established itself as a leader
in its industry. The Company executed a major business transaction that allowed
us to focus solely on alternate-site health information services -- a successful
business for us for over 25 years. The completion and subsequent integration of
the transaction have required a substantial commitment of management's
attention, but even so, Hooper Holmes turned in a solid financial performance in
1995, with growth in sales and operating income. We ended the year a revitalized
company with an optimistic eye toward the future.

A Unique Opportunity

Our transaction with Olsten Corporation, which closed September 29, 1995,
represented a unique opportunity for Hooper Holmes. Structured as a swap
transaction, it enabled us to divest our Nurse's House Call home healthcare
division in return for ASB/Meditest and a cash payment of approximately $27.3
million, which is being used to retire existing debt. ASB was previously a
respected competitor of our Portamedic division, with a strong branch network
and excellent relationships with many of the country's largest life and health
insurers.

The result of the transaction is a transformed Hooper Holmes with strong growth
opportunities. We now serve roughly 30% of the life and health insurance market
for alternate-site health information. This expanded presence improves our
position as one of the leading information sources for the country's largest
life and health insurers, while ASB/Meditest provides the opportunity for
expansion in the potentially lucrative wellness/health screening niche market.
Meanwhile, the integration of the businesses presents attractive margin
improvement opportunities. Alternate-site services is a higher margin business
than home healthcare, and we are making it more attractive by streamlining the
Portamedic and ASB office networks and leveraging Portamedic's established
infrastructure.

Improved Operating Base

Income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 1995 totaled
$1.7 million, or $0.25 per share, an increase of 13% over $1.5 million, or $0.22
per share in 1994. Revenues totaled $111.3 million for the year. Approximately
$98.5 million of revenues were attributable to the full-year contribution of
Portamedic, with the remainder consisting of the fourth quarter contribution
from ASB. In 1994, Portamedic's revenues totaled $92.5 million.

Hooper Holmes accounted for its Nurse's House Call healthcare business as a
discontinued operation in the second quarter and concluded that in the fourth
quarter, with the disposal, as a discontinued operation, of its occupational
health business, resulting in a charge of $14.7 million, or $2.19 per share. As
a result, the Company reported a net loss for the full year of $13.0 million, or
$1.94 per share. In 1994, Hooper Holmes earned $2.7 million, or $0.40 per share.

As the increase in income from continuing operations indicates, Hooper Holmes
enjoys a much-improved operating base going forward. In addition to synergistic
and new business opportunities, we expect operating margins to benefit from the
substantial reduction in interest expense made possible by the cash portion of
the transaction. Outstanding bank debt was cut to $35.1 million in 1995, and
interest expense in 1996 should be substantially below the level of the prior
year. The Company expects to reduce its debt further in 1996.

Industry and Business Growth

As a healthier, more profitable company, Hooper Holmes is well-prepared to
compete in what we see as a growth industry. Life and health insurers are more
focused than ever on minimizing their exposure to serious health risks in an era
when the healthcare industry's cost structure is rapidly being lowered. Already,
we see stricter underwriting standards and lower thresholds for mandatory
pre-screening of applicants, two key trends that indicate increasing demand for
alternate-site health information. Moreover, insurers are striving to maximize
their own efficiency and are increasingly outsourcing the medical testing and
information gathering functions.

As we head into 1996, Hooper Holmes is positioned to realize the maximum
benefits of these industry trends. Our primary goal is to complete the effective
integration of ASB/Meditest, and we have already succeeded by eliminating
operating redundancies and preserving relationships with existing ASB customers.
We will continue to exploit the cost savings opportunities and will use the
advantages of a larger, more focused company to address attractive business
opportunities. In all of our endeavors, we are committed to using our position
as the leader in our industry as a platform to support stronger growth and
profitability.

Our thanks go to our customers, employees and shareholders. We look forward to a
successful 1996.


Sincerely,



/s/ Frederick D. King                     /s/ James M. McNamee

Defining Alternate-Site Health Information

Alternate-site health information provided to life and health insurance
companies is a $600 million industry in the United States. In a time of
increasing cost pressures on businesses and rapid changes in the structure of
the healthcare delivery network, insurance underwriters around the nation regard
the delivery of timely, accurate health information as a critical service with a
growing value.

Hooper Holmes and other top alternate-site providers typically conduct
paramedical pre-screening of life and health insurance applicants, utilizing
physicians, nurses and other medically trained professionals to obtain reliable
health information in a location convenient to the applicant such as the home or
office. Services performed can be as routine as a physical exam but may be
broadened to include blood and other lab tests, electrocardiograms and personal
health interviews yielding information on lifestyles and health histories. This
data is packaged for ready reference by insurance underwriters, facilitating
better-informed risk-assessment and decision-making on the part of insurance
companies.

An estimated 6.5 million insurance applicants are pre-screened each year, 30% by
Hooper Holmes' examiners. As the industry leader, Hooper Holmes serves most of
the largest life insurers in the country and a broad base of local and regional
insurance agents, offering the industry's widest geographic coverage and
strongest technological capabilities. Many smaller players only conduct business
at the local and regional level and/or specialize in niche services such as drug
and substance abuse screening.

Service providers must be highly responsive and well-attuned to the needs of
their clients. Major insurers approve and recommend use of a specific providers
primarily based on their accuracy, geographic presence and technological
reporting capabilities. Local insurance agents then rely on the recommendations
of their affiliated corporations in selecting service providers for applicants.
The local agent, whose motivation is closing sales of new policies, places a
high priority on timely information delivery.

The value of accurate health information in the risk-assessment process is on
the rise as insurers increasingly react to cost-containment trends in healthcare
delivery and managed care programs. Heightened concerns about the impact of AIDS
and other major health issues, as well as indications

from regulators that certain home testing products might be approved for
consumer use, are leading insurers to reconsider the minimum threshold at which
they require insurer-sponsored applicant pre-screening. As a result of these
industry dynamics, greater value is being placed on health information and
underwriting standards are tightening.

At the same time, demand for alternate-site services is benefitting from the
increased outsourcing of paramedical testing. Increasingly, insurers are
stripping away the layers of their processing organizations, offering outside
providers the opportunity to bridge the gap with rapidly obtained information
that is transmitted directly to the underwriter.

Clearly, the providing of alternate-site health information is a growing
industry. Portamedic's revenues grew at an average annual rate of 16% during the
first half of this decade, and the business trends point to continued volume
expansion. Hooper Holmes is also targeting attractive new health information
opportunities designed to help employers, HMOs and other organizations discern
and address potential risks among their insured bases.

Hooper Holmes' Portamedic and ASB/Meditest together form the nation's largest
provider of alternate-site health information. The combined operations offer an
industry-leading 200 company-owned office locations operating in all 50 states
and major U.S. territories. Hooper Holmes utilizes a network of experienced
medical professionals including physicians, RNs and LPNs, ECG technicians and
phlebotomists. This integrated network accommodates well over 200,000 requests
for services each month, including medical testing, personal inspection
reporting, wellness screenings and other services, from customers such as
Prudential Insurance, Metropolitan Life and State Farm. Hooper Holmes now counts
46 of the nation's 50 largest life and health insurers among its clientele.

Through an established, state-of-the-art information infrastructure, Hooper
Holmes possesses an ability to gather and communicate information on a level
that is unmatched in its industry. The Company is the first testing provider
delivering paramedical exam results electronically and within 24 hours. Hooper
Holmes' Infolink Services Group, which operates out of four regional service
centers and now serves both Portamedic and ASB/Meditest clients, permits
customers immediate access to inspection reports covering pertinent applicant
data such as financial and health histories. Also, each Portamedic and ASB
branch is linked to corporate headquarters via an automated reporting system.
Hooper Holmes professionals are equipped to supply paramedical information to
specified insurers via laptop computers, a service which saves the insurer money
by cutting into the multiple layers of processing staff traditionally needed to
review applications. These integrated systems help Hooper Holmes maintain its
reputation for high quality service and the industry's best turnaround.

Hooper Holmes uses a two-tier marketing approach, led by seven seasoned
professionals who concentrate on corporate-level account relationships. Their
efforts include establishing preferred provider relationships with major
insurers which then recommend Hooper Holmes to their agent networks. The
corporate sales staff is also instrumental in identifying expanded relationship
opportunities. On the second tier, each Portamedic and ASB branch employs a
local sales representative who serves as a point of contact for insurance agents
and is responsible for ensuring fast, accurate service.

In an industry with promising growth opportunities, Hooper Holmes has two key
growth strategies. First, the Company is working to increase its market share
and further solidify its position as the industry's leading service provider.
This effort is being driven by the primary competitive advantage of integrated
information systems, which enables Hooper Holmes to provide services with value,
helping insurers eliminate processing costs from their systems by gathering
information quickly and reporting directly to underwriters.

Second, the Company is leveraging its information infrastructure to expand its
position in the industrial and health information services markets. Services in
this segment can include pre-employment physicals, personnel reporting and
employee health profile and risk assessment programs. The Company believes the
potential for growth in this area is tremendous. With a broad geographic scope
and integrated reporting capabilities, Hooper Holmes is working with employers
and managed care providers to establish "wellness programs," whereby aggregated
health information on employees or covered lives can be used as a basis for
education on potential health risks. Thus, Hooper Holmes can facilitate a degree
of preventive care on behalf of clients who otherwise have little or no means of
managing risk.

Hooper Holmes, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

Results of Operations

1995 Compared to 1994

Total revenues for 1995 increased 20.3% to $111.3 million from $92.5 million for
1994. This growth results from a 19% unit increase in the number of paramedical
examinations performed and a 26% increase in inspection and attending physician
statement units. Of the overall increase, approximately 14% reflects new revenue
provided in the fourth quarter by the acquisition of ASB Meditest and 6% stems
from revenue growth of the existing offices. Management believes this latter
increase is the result of marketshare gains, partially offset by pricing
pressures and volume discounting. In 1995, the Company discontinued its
healthcare operations including its occupational health operations. See Note 2
to the consolidated financial statements for information related to discontinued
operations. The results reported herein are representative of the Company's
continuing operations.

   The Company's cost of operations in 1995 totaled $85.9 million compared to
$70.7 million for 1994. Cost of operations as a percentage of revenues totaled
77.2% for 1995 versus 76.4% for 1994. This increase was primarily due to
competitive pricing pressures in the marketplace and higher branch operating
expenses, partly due to the ASB Meditest acquisition. The Company believes that
additional branch operating savings will be realized as planned consolidations
of the ASB Meditest acquisition are completed.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased
to $21.3 million for 1995 from $18.1 million for 1994. The increase
of $3.2 million is largely attributed to SG&A expenses related to ASB Meditest's
corporate functions which were duplicative of existing company SG&A. The Company
believes that as the integration of ASB Meditest continues, additional cost
savings may be realized.

   Accordingly, the Company's operating income for 1995 increased
to $4.1 million versus $3.8 million for 1994, and as a percentage of revenues,
decreased to 3.6% for 1995 compared to 4.1% for 1994.

   Interest expense increased in 1995 over 1994 due to higher amounts borrowed,
but this increase was offset by certain other income items. See note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements.

   As a result of the foregoing, net income from continuing operations in 1995
totaled $1.7 million or $0.25 per share compared to $1.5 million or $0.22 per
share for 1994. The 1995 net loss from discontinued operations totaled $14.7
million, or $2.19 per share, compared to a net income of $1.2 million, or $0.18
per share for the prior year.

   The net loss for 1995 was $13.0 million compared to net income of $2.7
million for 1994. The net loss in 1995 includes a $14.7 million or $2.19 per
share, net loss from discontinued operations. See Note 2 to the consolidated
financial statements.

   In the second quarter of 1995, the Company discontinued its Nurse's House
Call healthcare business and entered into a contract to sell this business. In
the fourth quarter of 1995 the Company discontinued its occupational health
business recently acquired as part of ASB Meditest which primarily consisted of
drug testing and immunizations. These disposals are in connection with the
Company's strategy to focus on its core business of providing health information
services.

   Inflation did not have a significant effect on the Companies operations in
1995.

1994 Compared to 1993

Total revenues for 1994 increased to $92.5 million from $80.6 million for 1993.
This 14.8% increase results from a 12.4% growth in the number of paramedical
examinations due in part to the acquisition of Lifedata Medical Services, in
September 1993. Management believes that this increase results from Portamedic
continuing to be a preferred provider of examination services. Management also
believes it will continue to gain marketshare as well as being able to develop
new health information related products to the managed care industry. Prudential
Insurance Company of America accounted for more than 10% of Health Information
Services revenues in the amount of $11.0 million.

   The Company's cost of operations in 1994 increased to $70.7 million from
$60.8 million, in 1993, representing an increase of 16.3%. This increase is
attributed to the 12.4% increase in volume offset by certain pricing pressures
beginning in late 1993. Cost of operations as a percent of revenues totaled
76.4% in 1994 compared to 75.4% in 1993, somewhat due to pricing pressures in
the form of volume discounting.

   Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to $18.1
million in 1994 from $14.8 million in 1993. The increase, was the result of an
expansion in the number of offices nationwide resulting from the Lifedata
Services, Inc. acquisition in September 1993, plus other increases in personnel
in administrative groups, especially the financial and system departments,
required to support the Health Information Services business.

   Operating income declined from $5.0 million in 1993 to $3.8 million in 1994,
and as a percentage of revenues, decreased to 4.1% from 6.2%.

   Net income from continuing operations decreased from $2.7 million in 1993 to
$1.5 million in 1994, representing a decrease of 46.0%. This decrease is
attributable to the previously noted costs, as well as an increase in interest
costs attributed to borrowing to fund the acquisition, accounts receivable
growth and working capital needs. Also impacting net income was a higher
effective state tax rate due to a change in the mix of income amongst the
states. Earnings per share from continuing operations decreased in 1994 to $.22
from $.41 per share in 1993, and earnings from discontinued operations increased
to $.18 per share in 1994 from $.13 per share in 1993.

   Net Income for 1994 decreased to $2.7 million in 1994 from $3.6 million in
1993.

Liquidity and Financial Resources

The Company's historical primary sources of cash are internally generated funds
and the Company's bank credit facility. Acquisitions in late 1993 required
significantly greater amounts of cash due to increasing accounts receivable
balances and other working capital needs. The Company borrowed from its banks
significant amounts to finance these acquisitions and for operating cash needs.
In the second quarter of 1995, the Company discontinued its Nurse's House Call
(NHC) health care operations and entered into a contract to sell those
operations and in return receive cash and a health information services company,
ASB Meditest, from the buyer. The transaction closed September 29, 1995 and the
Company received $12.3 million in cash after finalizing the net asset values of
NHC and ASB Meditest, and an additional $15 million was placed into an interest
bearing escrow account to be released to the Company to the extent that certain
accounts receivable sold as part of the transaction are collected.

   For the year ended December 31, 1995, the net cash provided by operating
activities for continuing operations was $5.6 million and for discontinued
operations, the net cash used in operating activities was $3.3 million. The
significant sources include the increase in liabilities of approximately $3.0
million. The increases in other assets and refundable taxes of $1.9 million were
the significant uses of cash. Through February 29, 1996, collections of the sold
accounts receivables were at a level which allowed the release of $9.8 million
of the $15 million escrow. Management is confident that the remainder of the
escrow will be collected within the terms of the accounts receivable collection
agreement.

   The Company replaced its term loan and revolving credit facility in November
1995 with a $40 million revolving credit facility which can be extended one year
beyond its January 1998 expiration date. The revolver loan will accrue interest
at the bank's base rate less 1/4% or at LIBOR plus 2.25%, at the option of the
Company. The total amount of the facility declines over the period of the
agreement to $20 million as of June 1997. At December 31, 1995 the total
available to the Company was $39 million, of which $31.5 million had been
borrowed. The current maturities of long-term debt will be paid with the escrow
funds as they are released from escrow. Capital expenditures for 1996 are
anticipated at less than $2.0 million. Due to the loss on the sale of Nurse's
House Call operations, the Company anticipates an income tax refund in 1996 of
approximately $9.0 million.

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

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In March 1995, the Financial Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of, which became
effective on January 1, 1996. SFAS No. 121 established accounting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and
goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and for long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed. Adoption of SFAS No. 121 is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
position and operating results, nor will it affect the Company's cash flows.

    In October 1995, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. This statement establishes an alternative method of accounting for
stock based compensation awarded to employees, such as stock options granted by
the Company to employees. The standard provides for the recognition of
compensation expense based on the fair value of the stock-based award, but
allows companies to continue to measure compensation cost in accordance with
Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees. Companies electing to retain this method must make pro forma
disclosures of net income and earnings per share as if the fair value based
method had been applied. The Company plans to continue to use APB No. 25, which
does not require the Company to record compensation expense for the stock
options it awards to employees. In 1996, the Company will disclose the pro forma
effect of the fair value method on 1996 and 1995 net income and earnings per
share.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 -- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hooper Holmes,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). All significant
intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Description of the Business
The Company provides alternate-site health information. The Company's network of
experienced medical professionals conduct physical examinations, testing, and
personal health interviews, primarily for the life and health insurance
industry. Information gathered in these activities is used by insurance
underwriters to assess risks and make informed decisions. The Company is subject
to certain risks and uncertainties as a result of changes that could occur in
the life and health insurance industry's underwritng requirements and standards,
and in the Company's customer base.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and disclosures in
these financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities at date of
purchase of less than ninety days to be cash equivalents.

Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is computed
using the straight line and accelerated method over the assets estimated useful
life. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to income as incurred;
significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Intangibles
Cost in excess of net assets of acquired companies and other intangible assets
are being amortized using the straight line method over lives ranging from 10-25
years and 3-15 years, respectively. Intangible assets are periodically reviewed
to determine recoverability by comparing their carrying values to expected
future cash flows.

Revenues
Revenues from services rendered are recognized when services are performed.

Income taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company's accounts receivable are due primarily from insurance companies.
Prudential Insurance Company of America continues as a major customer but due to
overall revenue growth, fell below 10% of total revenues for 1995. In 1994 and
1993 however, Prudential provided revenues of $11.0 million and $12.0 million
respectively

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying value of long-term debt approximates its fair value due
to the variable interest rate and short interest rate reset period. For all
other financial instruments, their carrying value approximates fair value, due
to the short maturity of these instruments.

Advertising
Costs related to space in publications are expensed the first time the
advertising occurs. Advertising expense was approximately $318,000, $230,000,
and $179,000 in 1995, 1994, and 1993, respectively.


Note 2 -- Discontinued Operations

The Company transferred substantially all of the assets and business
of its Nurse's House Call health care division (the "NHC division") to Olsten
Corporation, (the "NHC Transaction"), pursuant to an Agreement of Acquisition
between the Company and Olsten, dated May 26, 1995.

   The transaction closed September 29, 1995 subject to the final adjustment of
the cash portion of the purchase price as discussed below. Pursuant to the
Acquisition Agreement Olsten transferred, to the Company all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock ("ASB Meditest Stock") of American Service Bureau,
Inc., engaged in the business of providing paramedical examinations and related
services to the life and health insurance industries under the name ASB Meditest
("ASB Meditest"), $27.3 million in cash as adjusted to reflect changes in the
NHC Division Net Asset Amount between November 30, 1994 and the Closing Date,
and in the ASB Meditest Net Asset Amount between December 31, 1994 and the
Closing Date and assumed certain specified liabilities of approximately $5.1
million relating to the NHC Division. Included in accounts receivable other, are
amounts due from Olsten for liabilities paid by the Company on Olsten's behalf.

   Net sales for the NHC Division for the period ended September 29, 1995 were
$117.2 million, and for the years ending December 1994 and 1993 were $159.3
million and $106.8 million, respectively.

   Earnings (loss) from operations of such business, for the period ending
September 29, 1995, were ($4.1) million, and for the years ending December 31,
1994 and 1993 were $1.2 million and $.9 million, respectively, and are net of
taxes (benefits) of ($2.2) million for the period

ending September 29, 1995, and $1.1 million and $.7 million for the years ended
December 31, 1994, and 1993, respectively. Interest expense was allocated to
discontinued operations based on the increase in debt required to fund the NHC
Division's accounts receivable growth. Interest expense allocated to the NHC
Division was approximately $1.9 million, $1.7 million, and $.3 million in 1995,
1994, and 1993, respectively.

   The Company has recorded a loss in the amount of $10.3 million, net of tax
benefits of $7.6 million, on the disposal of the NHC Division. The Company
recorded a provision for certain costs related to the disposal including the
transaction loss, severance and other expenses, transaction fees, and accounts
receivable collection fees.

   Consistent with the Company's decision to discontinue its healthcare
business, the Company, in the 4th quarter of 1995, also discontinued the
operations of its Occupational Health segment acquired as part of the ASB
Meditest acquisition, and has reflected in its discontinued operations, a loss,
net of taxes of $.3 million. In October 1995, the Company sold the Drug Screen
portion of its Occupational Health segment for $700,000 in cash, and a $500,000,
one year promissory note, which is included in accounts receivable - other. The
assets consisted primarily of computer equipment and software and customer
lists. There was no gain or loss to be recognized on this transaction. The
Company concluded its seasonal Flu vaccination commitments late in 1995, and
will not continue this business in 1996.

   The 1995 consolidated financial statements exclude amounts for discontinued
operations from captions applicable to continuing operations. The 1994 and 1993
consolidated financial statements have been restated to conform with the 1995
presentation.

Note 3 -- Acquisitions and Dispositions

On September 29, 1995, in connection with the NHC transaction the Company
acquired all of the outstanding common stock of ASB Meditest, a national health
information services company. As a result of an independent appraisal, the
Company has recorded costs in excess of net assets acquired of approximately
$12.3 million, and intangible assets in the amount of $10.8 million, comprised
of assembled work force $2.3 million, contractor network $2.4 million, referral
base $4.1 million, and a non competition agreement valued at $2.0 million. These
amounts are all being amortized over their useful lives.

     The NHC transaction called for a portion of the purchase price to be placed
in escrow until collections of the trade receivables of NHC sold to Olsten are
reduced to below $30.0 million. At that point the escrow funds are released
dollar for dollar until the balance is reduced to $15.0 million. As of February
29, 1996, the Company has received $8.2 million of the escrowed funds. The
escrowed funds as released, are utilized to pay down existing debt.

   On September 24, 1993, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common
stock of Lifedata Medical Services, Inc., a national health information services
company, headquartered in Overland Park, Kansas. The purchase price was in the
amount of $6.0 million. Cost in excess of net assets acquired was approximately
$3.1 million. Additionally, a noncompetition agreement was entered into in the
amount of $.2 million.

   The acquisitions discussed above have been accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting and the purchase price of each acquisition has been
assigned to the net assets based on the fair value of such assets and
liabilities at the date of acquisition. The consolidated financial statements
include the results of operations of Lifedata Medical Services, Inc. from
September 24, 1993, and ASB Meditest from September 29, 1995.

   In 1992 the Company sold its Direct Marketing business and received cash and
a six year promissory note. The Company determined that the gain on this
transaction should be recognized as note payments are received. During 1995, the
Company received $364,000 which is included in other income.

   The following unaudited pro forma information has been prepared as if the
1995 acquisition of ASB Meditest had occurred on January 1, 1994, and excludes
the NHC Division. This pro forma information does not purport to be an
indication of the results that actually would have been obtained if the
operations had been combined during the periods.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



   Annual maturities for the two years subsequent to December 31, 1996 are as
follows: 1997 - $5.0 million and 1998 - $21.3 million. The 1993 term loan and
1993 revolving loan were refinanced in November 1995 with a $40.0 million
revolving loan which decreases over the term to $20.0 million in June 1997. The
1995 revolving loan accrues interest at the bank's base rate minus 1/4% or LIBOR
plus 2 1/4%. The rate at December 31, 1995 was 8.1% and the maximum available
credit amount was $39.0 million. Also, commitment fees of 1/4% of the unused
credit are charged and the loan is secured by the Company's assets, largely
accounts receivable. Dividend payments are limited to quarterly amounts of $.02
to $.05 through the agreement term based on maintaining certain financial
ratios. At December 31, 1994 the interest rates on the 1993 term loan and the
1993 revolving loan were 8.3% and 7.2% respectively. The mortgage is composed of
two components, one accrues interest at 6.9% and the other at 5.65%.

   The Company has entered into a one year renewable Letter of Credit to the
benefit of an insurance company relating to workers' compensation insurance. At
December 31, 1995 the amount was $4.5 million.

Note 7 -- Commitments and Contingencies

The Company leases branch field offices under a number of operating leases which
expire in various years through 2000. These leases generally contain renewal
options and require the Company to pay all executory costs (such as property
taxes, maintenance and insurance). The Company also leases telephone, computer
and other miscellaneous equipment which are classified as operating leases and
expire in the years 1996 through 2000. The following is a schedule of future
minimum lease payments for operating leases (with initial or remaining terms in
excess of one year) as of December 31, 1995:



- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total minimum lease payments       $14,610,594
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Rental expenses, under operating leases were $3,908,709, $3,740,373 and
$2,780,268 in 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively.

     On April 4, 1995, the Company was served with a Civil Investigative Demand
which relates to an investigation by the U.S. Deptartment of Justice of
allegations that a specific office of Hooper Holmes, Inc's discontinued Nurse's
House Call division falsified records and submitted false claims for
reimbursement under Medicare and/or Medicaid. The Company is cooperating to
resolve this matter and management does not anticipate that the final resolution
of this matter will have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of
operation or its financial condition. On January 24, 1990, the Company entered
into an employment retention contract with the President for a two year period
from the date a change in control occurs as further defined in the contract.

Note 8 -- Litigation

The Company is a party to a number of legal actions arising in the ordinary
course of its business. In the opinion of management, the Company has adequate
legal defense and/or insurance coverage respecting each of these actions and
does not believe their ultimate disposition will materially affect the Company's
operations or financial position.

   Deferred tax assets (liabilities) are reflected in the consolidated balance
sheets at December 31, 1995 as follows, prepaid expenses and other $2,003 and
deferred income taxes (noncurrent) $(4,993) and at December 31, 1994 in accrued
expenses other ($109).

   At December 31, 1995, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
approximately $365,000 that will expire in the year 2010.

   No valuation allowance has been provided on deferred tax assets since
management believes that it is more likely than not that such assets will be
realized through the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities and future
taxable income.

   The principal components of the deferred tax provision in 1995 and 1994
include differences between financial and tax reporting for depreciation,
amortization, and allowance for accounts receivable.

Note 10 -- Earnings (loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share of common stock have been computed based on the
weighted average number of shares outstanding. No effect has been given in the
calculation for common stock equivalents since the equivalents are either not
materially dilutive to earnings per share or are antidilutive to loss per share.

Note 11 -- Capital Stock

Stockholder Rights Plan -- On January 23, 1990, the Board of Directors adopted a
Stockholder Rights Plan, which was amended and restated on May 10, 1991 and
further amended on July 12, 1995. The Board declared a dividend of one Common
Share Right for each outstanding share of Common Stock distributable on April 2,
1990. Such rights only become exercisable ten business days after (a) the
Company or a person or group announces that such person or group (other than
certain specified persons, such as the Company, any wholly-owned subsidiary,
employee benefit plans of the Company and persons who held at least 20% of the
Common Stock when the Rights Plan was adopted, until the occurrence of certain
events, or as the result of an acquisition of shares by the Company) has
acquired beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock or
(b) the commencement of a tender offer by a person or group to acquire 30% or
more of the Company's Common Stock (such date, the "Separation Date"). Upon the
Separation Date, each right shall constitute the right to purchase one share of
Common Stock of the Company for $24.00, subject to adjustment. After (x) the
announcement of the acquisition by a person or group of 20% or more of the
Company's Common Stock (other than in a tender offer for all shares which has
been approved by the Board of Directors), or (y) the Company enters into or
consummates a merger or other similar business transaction, or a sale of more
than 50% of the assets or earning power, each right shall be adjusted to
constitute the right to purchase that number of shares of Common Stock of the
Company or capital stock of the acquiring company, as the case may be, having an
aggregate market 



                                                                        page. 17

or occurrence of the transaction equal to twice the exercise price of $24.00,
also subject to adjustment. The rights may be redeemed for $0.05 per right at
any time until the tenth day following public announcement that a 20% position
has been acquired. The rights will expire on March 16, 2000, unless sooner
redeemed.

Stock Awards -- The Company's president is entitled to receive stock awards
based on the attainment of performance goals established for any given year. For
the years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993, awards of 6,000 (paid in cash
at its fair value at the time of grant), 5,250 (shares issued in 1995), and
11,000 shares, respectively, have been granted.

totaling 300,000 and 500,000 shares, respectively, in 1988 and 1992, and 500,000
shares in 1994, which provide that options may be granted to management. Options
were granted at market value on the dates of the grants and are exercisable as
follows: 25% after two years and 25% on each of three anniversary dates
thereafter, and terminate after 10 years. As of December 31, 1995, 253,038

Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Hooper Holmes, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hooper Holmes,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1995. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hooper
Holmes, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year
period ended December 31, 1995 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
