NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions
to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they 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 of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. All significant inter-company transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three months
ended March 31, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2001.

The balance sheet at December 31, 2000 has been derived from the
audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the
information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States for complete financial statements. For further information,
refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 2000 (included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed

During the second quarter of 2000, the Company began recognizing
revenues under a services agreement with HCA Information Technology & Services,
Inc., an affiliate of HCA - The Healthcare Company (collectively referred to
herein as "HCA"). The Company granted HCA a warrant to purchase HealthStream,
Inc. common stock. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Operations reflect revenues related to the services provided, net of the
amortization of the fair value of the related warrant as a reduction of the
revenues proportionately over the term of the four-year agreement. The
amortization will fluctuate based on the revenues received from this agreement
and will vary as a percentage of revenues based on the estimated revenues over
the course of the agreement.

HEALTHSTREAM, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The following unaudited pro forma results of operations give effect to
the operations of the acquired companies as if the respective acquisitions had
occurred on the first day of 2000. The pro forma results of operations do not
purport to represent what the Company's results of operations would have been
had such transactions in fact occurred at the beginning of the period presented
or to project the Company's results of operations in any future period.

THREE MONTHS ENDED
MARCH 31, 2000
--------------

Revenues................................................... $ 3,246,000
Net loss................................................... $ (4,859,000)
Net loss per share:
Basic................................................. $ (0.87)
Diluted............................................... $ (0.87)

Since the pro forma impact of the de'MEDICI acquisition is not material
to the results presented for 2001, no pro forma disclosures are presented. In
accordance with SFAS 128, escrowed shares and any shares subject to restrictions
or vesting are excluded from the weighted average shares outstanding for
purposes of calculating net loss per share since such shares are anti-dilutive.

3. NET LOSS PER SHARE

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available
to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by
dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common
and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential
common shares, composed of incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise
of stock options and warrants, escrowed or restricted shares, and common shares
issuable on assumed conversion of series A, B, and C convertible preferred
stock, are included in diluted net loss per share only when these shares are
dilutive. The total number of shares excluded from the calculations of dilutive
loss per share was approximately 12,800,000 at March 31, 2000 and approximately
6,200,000 at March 31, 2001.

4. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

On April 14, 2000, the Company completed its initial public offering
("IPO") of 5,275,000 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $42.2
million. On April 14, 2000, the Company completed a private placement of
1,111,111 shares of its common stock to WebMD, formerly Healtheon/WebMD
Corporation ("WebMD"), for net proceeds of $10.0 million. Upon consummation of
the IPO, all series A, B, and C convertible preferred stock converted by its
terms into 7,131,153 shares of our common stock. In addition, a $1,293,000
promissory note payable to Robert A. Frist, Jr., the Company's chief executive
officer and chairman, also converted into 553,711 shares of common stock. Prior
to the IPO, the Company effected a 1.85 for one common stock split. All share
and per share information has been restated to reflect the stock split.

During May 2000, the Company repaid the long-term note payable assumed
in connection with the acquisition of m3 using a portion of the proceeds of the
IPO.

5. RELATIONSHIP WITH WEBMD

In February 2000, we entered into an agreement with WebMD which
provided for us to be the exclusive provider of education, continuing education
and training services for healthcare organizations, healthcare professionals and
healthcare workers on Web sites owned or operated by WebMD. The agreement
provided for payments to WebMD of $6.0 million per year for five years on a
quarterly basis as guaranteed minimum royalties. In the first year, $2.0 million
of the $6.0 million payment was to be applied toward mutually agreed upon
branding and promotion services. Under the agreement, we were to receive 100% of
any revenues from the sale of our products and services until we recovered all
payments to WebMD, after which we would receive 75% and WebMD would receive 25%
of any revenues.

The arrangement also terminated the lock-up agreement related to the
1.1 million shares of HealthStream common stock that WebMD purchased in a
private offering just prior to the Company's IPO. In connection with this
termination, HealthStream gave WebMD the right to sell the shares back to
HealthStream at any time through March 30, 2001. On February 8, 2001, WebMD
exercised its right to sell the 1.1 million shares of HealthStream common stock
back to the Company at $1.7833 per share. The Company reacquired the shares on
February 16, 2001. In connection with the termination of the prior WebMD
agreement, HealthStream recognized a gain of $1.5 million, representing the
reversal of the scheduled $1.5 million fixed payment that was accrued during the
quarter ended September 30, 2000.

5. CONTINGENCIES

On November 17, 2000, a complaint was filed in the Circuit Court of
Tennessee for the Thirtieth Judicial District at Memphis against us, SynQuest
Technologies, Inc. and two individual shareholders of SynQuest Technologies. The
complaint asserts that HealthStream violated the terms of a licensing agreement
entered into between HealthStream and the plaintiff and that HealthStream
allegedly failed to pay royalties due to the plaintiff pursuant to the terms of
that agreement. The plaintiff also alleges that HealthStream induced SynQuest
Technologies to breach a marketing agreement entered into between SynQuest and
the plaintiff. Alternatively, the plaintiff alleges that HealthStream, which
purchased certain assets of SynQuest, is liable for SynQuest's alleged breach of
the marketing agreement pursuant to the legal theory of successor liability. The
aggregate damages alleged total approximately $9.0 million. We believe the
allegations in the complaint are without merit, intend to defend the litigation
vigorously and do not believe this litigation will have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

OVERVIEW

HealthStream was originally incorporated in 1990 and initiated online
operations in March 1999. The Company has evolved from a multimedia content
development service provider to a facilitator of computer based training
capabilities targeted at the healthcare industry. Revenues are derived from the
following categories: provision of services through our application service
provider ("ASP") products, content subscriptions, licenses of installed learning
management systems, maintenance and technical support services, content and
courseware development, sponsorship services, sales of CD-ROM products, Web cast
events, event development and registration services, Web site development,
online products and training services. Our products and services are targeted at
healthcare organizations and pharmaceutical and medical device companies.

13

ASP-based products and services, including content subscriptions, are
provided on a monthly subscription fee basis based on the number of people
within a facility and the content offerings. Revenue derived from our ASP-based
products are recognized ratably over the term of the service agreement. The
Company also offers training services for ASP users to facilitate integration of
this technology. Fees for training are based on the time and efforts of the
personnel involved. Revenue for transaction-based online course sales is
recognized when the course is delivered. Revenues provided under a service
agreement that included the grant of a warrant to HCA are recognized as services
are rendered, net of the amortization of the fair value of the related warrant
as a reduction of the revenues proportionately over the term of the four-year
agreement. Revenue recognition policies for ASP-based products and services vary
significantly from our installed products.

Revenues from installed learning management system fees are recognized
upon shipment or installation of the software. Revenues related to installed
learning management systems may be subject to fluctuations because purchases of
these licenses typically are included in customers' capital expenditure budgets.
Charges for services such as training, maintenance and technical support are
either based on a fixed fee, estimated usage or actual time incurred.
Maintenance and technical support revenues are recognized over the term of the
service period. Sponsorship revenue is recognized ratably over the term unless
usage exceeds the ratable portion. Revenues derived from the sale of products
requiring significant modification, conversion or customization are recorded
based on the percentage of completion method using labor hours. Multimedia
development revenues are recognized based on the percentage of a project that is
completed, while revenues for live event development services are recognized
based on the percentage of completion method using labor hours. Event
registration services are recognized upon completion of the related event. All
other service revenues are recognized as the related services are performed or
products are delivered.

Historically, we have marketed our training and education delivery system
directly or licensed it to resellers to re-brand and distribute under their
private label. Our primary reseller relationship was with Lippincott Williams &
Wilkins, Inc. ("LWW"), a leading medical sciences publisher. LWW's business
unit, de'MEDICI Systems, combined its line of training content mandated by the
Occupational Safety and Hazards Administration ("OSHA") and the Joint Commission
on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations ("JCAHO") with our installed
learning management systems and their sales force sold the resulting solution
directly into healthcare organizations. In January 2001, we purchased de'MEDICI
Systems from LWW and acquired the existing base of more than 230 customers.

We expect to continue to generate revenues by marketing our products and
services to healthcare workers through healthcare organizations. We expect that
the portion of our revenues related to our ASP-based products and services will
increase. Specifically, we will seek to generate revenues from healthcare
workers by marketing to their employers or sponsoring organizations.

An integral part of the Company's strategy is to acquire companies that
complement our products and services. Because of the financial impact of the
Company's recent acquisitions, the period-to-period comparisons of our financial
results are not necessarily meaningful.

We have acquired the following companies since January 1, 2000:

- KnowledgeReview, which operated a search engine, cmesearch.com,
allowing physicians to locate seminars and purchase educational
CD-ROMs and online courseware, for $310,000 in cash and 17,343
shares of our common stock;

- Quick Study, which owned over 60 Web-based hours of nursing and
OSHA content for $59,000 in cash, the assumption of $112,000 in
long-term debt and 68,066 shares of our common stock;

- m3 the Healthcare Learning Company, which provided
computer-based training to over 450 hospitals and healthcare
facilities, primarily in the areas of OSHA and JCAHO regulatory
training, for $600,000 in cash, the assumption of $1.2 million
in long-term debt and 818,036 shares of our common stock;

- EMInet, which provided Web-based educational content for
emergency medical services personnel, for $640,000 in cash and
272,072 shares of our common stock;

- Education Design Inc., which provided services for live
educational events that are supported by the medical device
industry, for $3.0 million in cash and 184,421 shares of the
Company's common stock. In addition, approximately $300,000 of
cash and 31,711 shares of the Company's common stock were
provided to the employees of EDI, subject to certain restricted
stock award agreements.

- SynQuest Technologies, Inc., which provided online training and
education to hospitals and healthcare organizations, for
787,087 shares of the Company's common stock and the assumption
of certain debt and other liabilities, $2.3 million of which
were repaid in connection with the purchase transaction.

- de'MEDICI Systems, which provided computer based education and
training to over 230 hospitals and healthcare organizations,
for approximately $360,000 and 181,250 shares of the Company's
common stock.

In February 2000, we entered into a four-year agreement with HCA
pursuant to which we will provide online training and education, courseware
development and administrative management and consulting services to HCA and its
affiliated and managed healthcare providers. Under this agreement, the Company
will be able to bill a minimum of $12 million for the aforementioned services
over the four year term, with the minimum in the first year approximating $2.0
million.

In February 2000, we entered into an agreement with WebMD which
provided for us to be the exclusive provider of education, continuing education
and training services for healthcare organizations, healthcare professionals and
healthcare workers on Web sites owned or operated by WebMD. The agreement
provided for payments to WebMD $6.0 million per year for five years on a
quarterly basis as guaranteed minimum royalties. In the first year, $2.0 million
of the $6.0 million payment was to be applied toward mutually agreed upon
branding and promotion services. Under the agreement, we were to receive 100% of
any revenues from the sale of our products and services until we recovered all
payments to WebMD, after which we would receive 75% and WebMD would receive 25%
of any revenues. WebMD purchased $10.0 million of our common stock at the
initial public offering price in a private sale.

On January 5, 2001, the Company terminated its prior agreement with
WebMD and entered into a new business arrangement. Under the new, non-exclusive
three-year agreement, the Company will be a preferred provider of continuing
medical education, continuing education and board preparation courses for
WebMD's professional portal. Under this new arrangement, financial consideration
will be based entirely on revenues generated from the sale of HealthStream's
services to WebMD's professional portal customers. The arrangement also
terminated the lock-up agreement related to the 1.1 million shares of
HealthStream common stock that WebMD purchased in a private offering just prior
to the Company's IPO. In connection with this termination, HealthStream gave
WebMD the right to sell the shares back to HealthStream at any time through
March 30, 2001. On February 8, 2001, WebMD exercised its right to sell the 1.1
million shares of HealthStream common stock back to the Company at $1.7833 per
share. The Company reacquired the shares on February 16, 2001. In connection
with the termination of the prior WebMD agreement, HealthStream recognized a
gain of $1.5 million representing the reversal of the scheduled $1.5 million
fixed payment, which was accrued during the quarter ended September 30, 2000.

To date, we have incurred substantial costs to develop our
technologies, create, license and acquire our content, build brand awareness,
develop our infrastructure and expand our business, and have yet to achieve
significant revenues. As a result, we have incurred operating losses in each
fiscal quarter since 1994. We expect operating losses and negative cash flow to
continue for the foreseeable future as we plan to increase our operating
expenses to help expand our business. These costs could have a material adverse
effect on our future financial condition or operating results. We believe that
period-to-period comparisons of our financial results are not necessarily
meaningful, and should not be relied upon as an indication of our future
performance.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES AND EXPENSE COMPONENTS

The following descriptions of the components of revenues and expenses apply to
the comparison of results of operations.

Revenues. Revenues currently consist of the provision of services through our
ASP-based products, the licensing of the Company's installed learning management
systems, maintenance and support services, content subscriptions, content and
courseware development, Web cast events, event development and registration
services, Web site development, professional and technical consulting services,
online products, sale of CD-ROMs and training services.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of salaries and employee
benefits, materials, and depreciation associated with the development of
interactive media projects as well as royalties paid to content providers and
distribution partners based on a percentage of revenues.

Product Development. Product development expenses consist primarily of salaries
and employee benefits, depreciation, third-party content acquisition costs,
costs associated with the development of content and expenditures associated
with maintaining and operating our Web sites and training delivery and
administration platforms.

Selling, General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and employee benefits, facility costs, depreciation,
amortization of intangibles, fees for professional services and royalties paid
to content providers that are of a fixed nature. Sales and marketing expenses
consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, bonuses, advertising,
promotions and related marketing costs.

Other Income/Expense. The primary component of other expense is interest expense
related to debt, loans from related parties and capital leases. The primary
component of other income is interest income related to interest earned on cash,
cash equivalents and investments.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2001

Revenues. Revenues increased $1.7 million, from $1.4 million in 2000 to
$3.1 million in 2001, due to revenues attributable to acquired businesses and
organic growth. Of the increase, $1.0 million is attributable to live event and
development services associated with the EDI acquisition, $0.3 million related
to the SynQuest acquisition and the full quarter impact of the m3 acquisition,
and $0.3 million related to organic growth associated with our ASP-based
products. Revenues were split almost evenly between services to healthcare
organizations and services to pharmaceutical and medical device companies,
including revenues from the Web distribution network.

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues increased $0.7 million from $0.8
million in 2000 to $1.5 million in 2001. Of the increase, $0.5 million is
attributable to the costs associated with live event and development services
and related personnel. The remainder of the increase is associated with the
increase in personnel associated with our ASP-based products and services. Cost
of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased from 52.5% in 2000 to 49.3% in
2001 primarily as a result of increased revenues related to our ASP-based
products and services.

Product Development. Product development expenses were $1.2 million in
both 2000 and 2001. Product development as a percentage of revenues decreased
from 82.4% in 2000 to 39.4% in 2001 as a result of increased growth in revenues
from ASP-based products and reduced focus on our client server products.

Selling, General and Administrative. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $2.1 million from $3.2 million in 2000 to $5.3
million in 2001. General and administrative expenses, excluding a one-time gain
of $1.5 million on renegotiation of the WebMD agreement, increased from $1.1
million in 2000 to $3.1 million in 2001. Sales and marketing expenses, including
personnel costs, increased from $1.1 million in 2000 to $1.4 million in 2001.
Depreciation and amortization

13
16

expenses increased from $1.0 million in 2000 to $2.3 million in 2001. General
and administrative expenses increased by $2.0 million due to increased facility
costs, increases in administrative personnel related to the EDI and SynQuest
acquisitions, increases in fixed royalty payments and severance expenses related
to consolidation of duplicative functions. Sales and marketing expenses
increased $0.3 million to $1.4 million as a result of sales personnel added as a
result of the SynQuest acquisition. The $1.3 million increase in depreciation
and amortization is attributable to the amortization of intangibles including
goodwill, non-competition agreements and customer lists related to the
acquisitions. As a percentage of revenues, selling, general and administrative
expenses, excluding the one-time gain on renegotiation of the WebMD agreement,
increased from 220% in 2000 to 223% in 2001 as a result of the increases in
personnel and infrastructure discussed above.

Other Income/Expense. Other income and expense increased $0.4 million
from approximately $0.2 million in 2000 to $0.6 million in 2001 related to
increased interest income which resulted from the investment of the proceeds of
the Company's IPO during the second quarter of 2000. This increase in interest
income was offset by a loss of approximately $100,000 related to the write off
of an investment. Interest expense decreased approximately $50,000 related to
the conversion of related party notes and repayment of debt in connection with
the Company's IPO.

Net Loss. Net loss increased $0.9 million from $3.5 million in 2000 to
$4.4 million in 2001 due to the factors described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Since our inception, we have financed our operations largely through
the public and private placements of equity securities, loans from related
parties and, to a lesser extent, from revenues generated from custom development
fees and product sales. In April 2000 we completed an initial public offering of
common stock resulting in net proceeds of $42.2 million and a concurrent private
placement of common stock to WebMD resulting in net proceeds of $10.0 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was $3.0 million in the first
quarter of 2000 and $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2001. Cash used in
operating activities during the quarter ended March 31, 2000, which excludes the
effects of acquisitions, was attributable to a $3.5 million net operating loss
and increases in prepaid expenses and other current assets, other assets and
decreases in deferred revenue which were partially offset by increases in
depreciation and amortization as well as increases in accrued liabilities and a
decrease in accounts receivable. Cash used in operating activities during the
quarter ended March 31, 2001 related to the $4.4 million net loss, the non-cash
gain on the WebMD renegotiation, increases in prepaid development, prepaid
expenses and other current assets, decreases in accounts payable, accrued
liabilities and deferred revenue, which were partially offset by increases in
depreciation and amortization as well as decreases in interest receivable.

Net cash used in investing activities was $1.8 million in the first
quarter of 2000 and $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2001. Cash used in
investing activities during the first quarter of 2000 related to the m3, EMInet,
Quick Study and KnowledgeReview acquisitions totaled $1.5 million and cash paid
for the purchase of property and equipment totaled $0.4 million. In the first
quarter of 2000, these outflows were partially offset by the receipt of $0.1
million from the sale of investments by the Company. During the first quarter of
2001, cash outflows related to the purchase of de'MEDICI Systems and the
purchase of property and equipment.

Cash provided by financing activities was $0.1 million in the first
quarter of 2000 while $2.1 million was used in financing activities in the first
quarter of 2001. During the first quarter of 2000, cash provided by financing
activities related to $0.2 million received in connection with the exercise of
stock options, which was offset by $0.1 million of repayments of debt and
capital leases. Cash used in financing activities during the first quarter of
2001 related primarily to $2.0 million related to the repurchase of common stock
from WebMD.

In connection with our agreement with HCA, HCA will pay us revenues of
at least $12.0 million over the four-year term of the agreement. As discussed
above, the Company expects to amortize the estimated fair value of the warrant
($8.8 million) as a reduction of revenues proportionately over the term of the
agreement. This amortization will fluctuate based on the revenues

14
17

received from this agreement and will vary as a percentage of revenues based on
the estimated revenues over the course of the agreement.

We also expect to incur additional product development costs, some of
which will be capitalized, and sales and marketing costs to grow our business.
As a result of the anticipated growth in personnel, development and online
transactions, we expect that our capital expenditures will be approximately $3.0
million during the remainder of 2001.

Our arrangements with distribution, content and development partners
have typically provided for payments based on revenues, and we expect to
continue similar arrangements in the future. In addition to such percentage
payments, we have fixed payment commitments of approximately $250,000 during the
remainder of 2001. We also have fixed educational grant commitments of
approximately $100,000 during the remainder of 2001. We have variable
commitments of approximately $100,000 related to agreements under which other
organizations have agreed to provide content development services for us.
Payments under these development arrangements are contingent upon the delivery
of services.

As of March 31, 2001, our primary source of liquidity was $34.7 million
of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, investments and related interest
receivable. As of April 30, 2001, the Company had cash, restricted cash,
investments and related interest receivable of $32.6 million. We believe that
our existing cash, restricted cash, investments and interest receivable will be
sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for working capital, capital
expenditures and acquisitions for at least the next 12 months. Our growth
strategy may include acquiring companies that complement our products and
services. We anticipate that these acquisitions, if any, will be effected
through issuance of our common stock and to a lesser extent, the payment of
cash. Our inability to use our common stock to finance acquisitions or failure
to generate sufficient cash flow from operations or raise additional capital
when required in sufficient amounts and on acceptable terms could harm our
business, results of operations and financial condition.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. We do not
have any foreign currency exchange rate risk or commodity price risk.

As of March 31, 2001, we had no outstanding indebtedness other than
capital lease arrangements. Accordingly, the Company is not exposed to
significant market risk. The Company is exposed to market risk with respect to
the cash and cash equivalents that it invests. At April 30, 2001, we had
approximately $32.6 million of cash, restricted cash, investments and accrued
interest that were invested in a combination of short and long-term
investments. At this investment level a hypothetical 10% decrease in the
interest rate would decrease interest income and increase net loss on an
annualized basis by approximately $326,000.

The Company manages its investment risk by investing in corporate debt
securities, foreign corporate debt and secured corporate debt securities with
minimum acceptable credit ratings. For certificates of deposit and corporate
obligations, ratings must be A2/A or better; A1/P1 or better for commercial
paper; A2/A or better for taxable or tax advantaged auction rate securities and
AAA or better for tax free auction rate securities. The Company also requires
that all securities must mature within 24 months from the original settlement
date, the average portfolio shall not exceed 18 months, and the greater of 10%
or $5.0 million shall mature within 90 days. Further, the Company's investment
policy also limits concentration exposure and other potential risk areas.

The above market risk discussion and the estimated amounts presented
are forward-looking statements of market risk assuming the occurrence of certain
adverse market conditions. Actual results in the future may differ materially
from those projected as a result of actual developments in the market.
