                              EMERITUS CORPORATION
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)

CRITICAL  ACCOUNTING  POLICIES  AND  ESTIMATES

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires Emeritus
to  make  estimates  and  judgments  that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities,  revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and  liabilities.  On  an  ongoing  basis,  Emeritus  evaluates  its  estimates,
including  those  related  to  resident  programs  and  incentives,  bad  debts,
investments,  intangible  assets,  income  taxes,  financing  operations,
restructuring,  long-term  service  contracts,  contingencies,  insurance
deductibles,  and  litigation.  Emeritus  bases  its  estimates  on  historical
experience  and  on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under  the  circumstances,  the  results  of  which  form  the  basis for making
judgments  about  the  carrying  values  of  assets and liabilities that are not
readily  apparent  from  other  sources.  Actual  results  may differ from these
estimates  under  different  assumptions  or  conditions.

Emeritus  believes  the  following  critical  accounting  policies  are  most
significant  to  the  judgments  and  estimates  used  in the preparation of its
condensed  consolidated financial statements.  Emeritus maintains allowances for
doubtful  accounts  for  estimated  losses  resulting  from the inability of its
residents  to  make required payments.  If the financial condition of Emeritus's
residents  were  to  deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to
make  payments,  additional  charges  may  be  required.  Emeritus  utilizes
third-party  insurance  for  losses  and liabilities associated with general and
professional  liability claims subject to established deductible levels on a per
occurrence  basis.  Losses  up to these deductible levels are accrued based upon
Emeritus's  estimates  of the aggregate liability for claims incurred.  If these
estimates  are insufficient, additional charges may be required.  Emeritus holds
shares  in  ARV  Assisted  Living, Inc. amounting to less than 5% of its shares.
ARV  is  publicly  traded  and  has a volatile share price.  Emeritus records an
investment  impairment charge when it believes this investment has experienced a
decline in value that is other than temporary.  Future adverse changes in market
conditions  or poor operating results underlying this investment could result in
losses  or an inability to recover the carrying value of the investment that may
not  be  reflected in this investment's current carrying value, thereby possibly
requiring  an  impairment  charge  in  the future.  Emeritus records a valuation
allowance  to  reduce  its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely
than not to be realized, which at this time shows a net asset valuation of zero.
While  Emeritus  has  considered  future  taxable income and ongoing prudent and
feasible  tax  planning  strategies  in  assessing  the  need  for the valuation
allowance,  in  the  event  Emeritus  were to determine that it would be able to
realize  its  deferred  tax  assets  in the future in excess of its net recorded
amount,  an  adjustment  to  the deferred tax asset would increase income in the
period  such  determination  was  made.

BASIS  OF  PRESENTATION

The  unaudited  interim financial information furnished below, in the opinion of
the  Company's management, reflects all adjustments, consisting of only normally
recurring  adjustments,  which  are  necessary  to  state  fairly  the condensed
consolidated  financial  position,  results  of  operations,  and  cash flows of
Emeritus  as  of  June 30, 2002, and for the three and six months ended June 30,
2002  and  2001.  The Company presumes that those reading this interim financial
information  have read or have access to its 2001 audited consolidated financial
statements  and  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results  of  Operations that are contained in the 2001 Form 10-K filed March 29,
2002,  and  amended  on  April  30,  2002.  Therefore,  the  Company has omitted
footnotes  and  other  disclosures herein, which are disclosed in the Form 10-K.

DEFERRED  REVENUE

At  June  30,  2002,  deferred  revenue of $2.5 million consists of the unearned
portion  of  the  insurance  surcharge  and fees charged for move-in services as
discussed  below.

                              EMERITUS CORPORATION
         NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-CONTINUED
                                   (unaudited)


Due to dramatic increases in liability insurance premiums for the year 2002, the
Company  decided  to  institute  a  one-time  insurance  surcharge  and  billed
approximately  $1.4  million  to  the  residents of its communities in the first
quarter  of 2002.  The associated revenue is being recognized on a straight-line
basis  over  the  life  of  the  insurance  policy.

In  2001  and prior years, the Company recognized nonrefundable fees charged for
move-in  services  at  the  time  the resident occupied the unit and the related
services  were  performed.  This  treatment  was  not  materially different than
recognition  of  such  fees  over  the average period of occupancy.  However, in
2002,  the Company began charging significantly higher fees for move-in services
than  were  previously  charged.  Therefore, the Company has instituted a policy
consistent  with  SEC  Staff  Accounting  Bulletin 101 "Revenue Recognition", to
defer  such  fees  and  recognize  them  over  the  average period of occupancy,
approximately  16 months.  This resulted in deferring approximately $1.8 million
of  revenue  at June 30, 2002, of which $1.2 million and $800,000 relate to fees
charged  in  the  six-month  and  three-month  periods  ended  June  30,  2002,
respectively.  The  Company  has  not  deferred any of the costs incurred in the
performance  of  the  move-in  services.

EMERITRUST  TRANSACTIONS

The  Company  manages  46 communities referred to as the Emeritrust communities,
including  25  Emeritrust  I communities, 16 Emeritrust II Operating communities
and  five  Emeritrust  II  Development  communities, under management agreements
described  in  the  Company's  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-K for the year ended
December  31,  2001.  The  Company  does  not  recognize  management fees on the
Emeritrust  communities  as  revenue  in  its  condensed  consolidated financial
statements  to  the  extent  that  it  is funding the cash operating losses that
include  them,  although the amounts of the funding obligation each year include
management  fees  earned  by  Emeritus  under  the  management  agreements.
Correspondingly,  the  Company  recognizes  the  funding  obligation  under  the
agreement,  less  the applicable management fees, as an expense in its condensed
consolidated  financial statements under the category "Other, net".  Conversely,
if  the  applicable  management  fees exceed the funding obligation, the Company
recognizes  the  management  fees  less the funding obligation as management fee
revenue  in  its  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements.

For  the  three  months  ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, (i) total management fees
earned  and  recognized  as  revenue  for  the  Emeritrust  I  communities  were
approximately  $402,000  and  $579,000, respectively; (ii) total management fees
earned  for  the  Emeritrust  II  Development  communities  were  $229,000,  and
$126,000,  respectively,  of  which  $203,000  and  $108,000, respectively, were
recognized  as  revenue; and (iii) management fees earned and recognized for the
Emeritrust  II  Operating communities, for which there is no funding obligation,
were  $479,000 and $454,000, respectively.  Thus, the management fees recognized
for  all  of the Emeritrust communities decreased $57,000 for the second quarter
of  2002  compared  to  the  comparable  period  in  2001.
For  the  Emeritrust I communities there was no funding obligation for the three
months  ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.  The Company's funding obligations for the
Emeritrust  II  Development  communities  were $85,000 and $70,000 for the three
months  ended  June  30, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Thus, the Company's gross
funding obligations increased $15,000 for the second quarter of 2002 compared to
the  comparable  period  in  2001.

For  the  six  months  ended  June  30, 2002 and 2001, (i) total management fees
earned for the Emeritrust I communities were approximately $1.1 million for both
periods,  of  which  $1.1 million and $875,000, respectively, were recognized as
revenue;  (ii)  total  management  fees earned for the Emeritrust II Development
communities  were  $397,000,  and  $240,000, respectively, of which $358,000 and
$185,000,  respectively,  were  recognized as revenue; and (iii) management fees
earned  and  recognized  for  the

                                        5

Emeritrust  II  Operating communities, for which there is no funding obligation,
were  $965,000 and $919,000, respectively.  Thus, the management fees recognized
for  all  of  the  Emeritrust  communities  increased $444,000 for the first two
quarters  of  2002  compared  to  the  comparable  period  in  2001.

For  the  Emeritrust  I  communities there was no funding obligation for the six
months  ended  June 30, 2002, compared to $387,000 for the six months ended June
30,  2001.  The  Company's funding obligations for the Emeritrust II Development
communities  were  $121,000  and $218,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2002
and 2001, respectively.  Thus, the Company's gross funding obligations decreased
$484,000 for the first two quarters of 2002 compared to the comparable period in
2001.

PROPERTY  HELD  FOR  SALE

Emeritus  currently  has  two  properties  being  held  for  sale.  Assets to be
disposed  of  are  reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair market
value  less  costs  to  sell.

PROPERTY  AND  EQUIPMENT

In  March 2002, the Company entered into a 15-year master lease arrangement with
Health  Care  REIT, Inc. ("HC REIT") for four communities, two of which Emeritus
previously  held  an ownership interest in and two of which it previously leased
from  another  lessor.  With  respect  to  one  community, located in Fairfield,
California,  the  Company  held  a  50%  economic  interest with a related party
investor,  which  was  owned or controlled by Daniel R Baty, the Company's chief
executive  officer.  Concurrently  with  the closing of the HC REIT transaction,
Emeritus  purchased  the  related  party  investor's  economic  interest for his
investment basis of $2.1 million plus a 9% return, a $2.95 million total payment
and  then sold the Fairfield facility to HC REIT.  The Company recognized a loss
on  the  repurchase of approximately $158,000, which is included in "Other, net"
in  the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended
June  30,  2002.  Another community, located in Paso Robles, California, was 50%
owned by an outside investor.  Also concurrently with the closing of the HC REIT
transaction,  the Company purchased the remaining 50% interest in this community
for  $2.65  million  and  then  sold  the  Paso Robles facility to HC REIT.  The
remaining  two  communities,  located  in  Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and Urbana,
Illinois, were both under operating leases with a different lessor, which agreed
to  convey  those communities directly to HC REIT. Concurrently with the closing
of  these  four  purchase  and sale transactions, Emeritus entered into a master
lease arrangement with HC REIT for all four communities and recognized a loss of
approximately  $372,000,  which  is  recorded  in  "Other, net" in the condensed
consolidated  statements  of  operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002.
The  loss  is  primarily comprised of write-offs of existing loan fees and lease
acquisition  costs  for  the  four  buildings.  Additionally,  the Company had a
deferred  gain  on  sale  associated with the transaction that approximated $1.8
million  and  new  lease  acquisition  costs of $1.0 million that are both being
amortized  over  the  lease  period  of  15  years.

In  April  2002,  the  Company  entered into agreements to acquire the ownership
interest  of  one  community and the leasehold interest of seven communities for
the  assumption  of  the  mortgage  debt relating to the owned community and the
lease  obligations  relating  to the leased communities.  The eight communities,
comprising  617  units  in  Louisiana and Texas, had been operated previously by
Horizon  Bay  Management  L.L.C.,  a national seniors housing management company
that  manages  the  WHSLH Realty, L.L.C. portfolio of senior housing properties.
In  May  and  July, 2002, Emeritus assigned its rights under these agreements to
entities  wholly owned by Daniel R. Baty, the Company's chief executive officer,
and  entered  into  a five-year agreement expiring April 30, 2007, with the Baty
entities  to  manage  the  eight communities for a management fee of 5% of gross
revenue.  In  completing  the  agreements  with Horizon Bay, Mr. Baty personally
guaranteed  the  mortgage and lease obligations.  As a part of these agreements,
the  Company  has the right to acquire the interests of the Baty entities in the
eight  communities at any time prior to April 30, 2007, by assuming the mortgage
debt  and lease obligations and paying such Baty entities the amount of any cash
investment  in  the  communities,  plus  9%  per  annum.  In  the  acquisition
agreements,  Horizon  Bay  agreed to fund operating losses of the communities to
the  extent  of  $2.5  million  in  the  first  twelve  months

                                        6

 and  $870,000  in  the  second  twelve months following the closing.  Under the
management  agreements  with  the Baty entities, Emeritus has agreed to fund any
operating  losses  in  excess  of  these  limits  over the five-year term of the
management  agreement.  We  recognized  management  fee revenue of approximately
$133,000  from  these  communities  for  the  quarter  ended  June  30,  2002.

ACCRUED  DIVIDENDS  ON  PREFERRED  STOCK
Since  the  third quarter of 2000, the Company has accrued its obligation to pay
cash  dividends  to both the Series A and Series B preferred shareholders, which
amounted  to  $10.5  million  at  June  30,  2002,  including  all penalties for
non-payment.  Since  dividends  on  the  Series  A  shares were not paid for six
consecutive  quarters,  the  Series  A dividends were calculated on a compounded
cumulative  basis,  retroactively in the first quarter of 2002.  This caused the
preferred  stock dividends to be approximately $498,000 higher for the first two
quarters  of  2002  as compared to the first two quarters of 2001.  In addition,
since  the  Company  had  not paid these dividends for more than six consecutive
quarters, both the Series A and Series B shareholders became entitled to appoint
one  additional  director each to the Company's board of directors. At this time
neither  of  the  Series  A  or  Series  B shareholders has chosen to appoint an
additional  director  to  the  Company's  Board.
Series  B dividends were to be paid in cash and in additional shares of Series B
preferred  stock.  For  the paid-in-kind dividends for the first two quarters of
2000,  609  shares  of  Series  B  preferred  stock were issued.  Since then, no
additional  shares  had  been  issued  until  after  the second quarter of 2002.
Effective  July  1,  2002,  2,533  additional shares were issued as paid-in-kind
dividends  to  cover  the  period  from  July  1,  2000,  through June 30, 2002.

LONG-TERM  DEBT

On  April 1, 2002, in conjunction with the HC REIT master lease transaction more
fully  discussed under "Property and Equipment" above, the Company received $6.7
million  in  proceeds  from  a  $6.8 million debt issuance under a separate loan
agreement  with HC REIT.  The loan agreement requires interest only payments and
bears  interest  at 12% per annum with fixed annual increases of 50 basis points
for  a  term  of  36  months.

The  current  portion  of  long-term  debt  at  June  30,  2002,  has  increased
approximately  $46.5  million  since December 31, 2001, primarily due to certain
debt  instruments  having  maturity  dates  prior  to  June  30,  2003.  Most
significantly,  these debt instruments are a $6.8 million note to GMAC, which is
due  February  1,  2003,  and  notes totaling $40.6 million to Deutsche Bank AG,
which  are  due  May  31,  2003.

LOSS  PER  SHARE

Basic  net  loss  per  share  is  computed  based  on  weighted  average  shares
outstanding  and excludes any potential dilution.  Diluted net loss per share is
computed  on the basis of the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus
dilutive  potential  common shares using the treasury stock method.  The capital
structure  of  Emeritus  includes  convertible  debentures,  redeemable  and
non-redeemable  convertible  preferred  stock,  common stock warrants, and stock
options.  The  assumed  conversion  and  exercise  of these securities have been
excluded  from  the calculation of diluted net loss per share since their effect
is  anti-dilutive.  The loss per common share was calculated on a dilutive basis
without consideration of 10,193,900 and 8,087,358 common shares at June 30, 2002
and  2001,  respectively,  related to outstanding options, warrants, convertible
debentures,  and  convertible  preferred  stock.

UNREALIZED  HOLDING  GAINS  ON  INVESTMENT  SECURITIES

The  change  in  unrealized  holding  gains  on  investment  securities  for the
six-month  period  ended  June  30,  2002, represents the change in value of the
Company's  investment  in  ARV  Assisted  Living,  Inc.

LIQUIDITY

The  Company  has  incurred significant operating losses since its inception and
has a working capital deficit of $59.2 million, although $2.5 million represents
deferred  revenues  and $10.5 million of preferred cash dividends is only due if
declared  by  the  Company's  board of directors.  To date, the Company has been
dependent  upon  third  party  financing  or  disposition  of  assets  to  fund
operations.  Management  intends to continue to refinance or restructure debt as
necessary.  The Company cannot, however, guaranty that third party financing and
refinancing  or  dispositions  of  assets  will  be available timely or on terms
acceptable  to  Emeritus.  In April 2002, the Company completed a lease and debt
transaction  having  a  beneficial  impact on working capital of $6.7 million in
conjunction  with  the  HC  REIT  master lease transaction, more fully discussed
elsewhere  in  the  Notes  to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and in
Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition and Results of
Operations.  With  respect to the $40.6 million of mortgage debt that matures on
May  31,  2003,  the  Company has been in discussions with the lender and others
regarding  restructuring  or  refinancing  the  debt  and,  although the Company
believes  the  issue  will be resolved prior to the maturity of this debt, there
has been no agreement reached at this time and the Company has no commitment for
refinancing.  If  the  Company  is unable to restructure or refinance this debt,
the  lender  could  declare  the  entire  amount  immediately due and payable at
maturity  and  could  begin  foreclosure  proceedings  with respect to the seven
assisted  living  properties  that  secure  this  debt.  In addition, this would
result  in  defaults  under  other  leases  and loan agreements.  Except for the
potential  financial  impact  of  being  unable  to refinance the aforementioned
mortgage  debt,  management  believes  Emeritus  has sufficient funds to sustain
operations  at  least  through  June  30,  2003.

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                            AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

Emeritus  is  a Washington corporation organized by Daniel R. Baty and two other
founders  in  1993.  In  November 1995, we completed our initial public offering
and  began  our  expansion  strategy.

Through  1998,  we  focused  on  rapidly  expanding  our  operations in order to
assemble  a  portfolio  of  assisted  living communities with a critical mass of
capacity.  We  pursued an aggressive acquisition and development strategy during
that  time,  acquiring 35 and developing 10 communities in 1996, acquiring 7 and
developing 20 communities in 1997, and developing 5 communities in 1998.  During
1999  and  continuing  through  2001,  we  substantially  reduced  our  pace  of
acquisition and development activities. During 2002 we have resumed pursuing, on
a  selective  basis, management contract and acquisition opportunities, which we
believe  will  be  beneficial  to  the  Company.

In  our  consolidated  portfolio,  exclusive of insurance surcharges, but giving
effect  to  the  deferral  of move-in fees, our rate enhancement program brought
about an increase in average monthly revenue per occupied unit to $2,514 for the
first two quarters of 2002 from $2,375 for the first two quarters of 2001.  This
represents  an  average revenue increase of $139 per month per occupied unit, or
5.9%.  The  average occupancy rate decreased to 81.5% for the first two quarters
of  2002  from  84.8%  for  the  first  two  quarters  of  2001.

In  our  total operated portfolio, which includes managed communities, exclusive
of  insurance surcharges, but giving effect to the deferral of move-in fees, our
rate  enhancement  program  brought about an increase in average monthly revenue
per  occupied  unit to $2,513 for the first two quarters of 2002 from $2,261 for
the  first two quarters of 2001.  This represents an average revenue increase of
$252  per  month  per  occupied  unit, or 11.1%.  The larger increase in average
monthly  revenue per occupied unit in our total portfolio as compared to that in
our  consolidated  portfolio  is partially due to the addition of 16 communities
previously  managed  by Regent Assisted Living, Inc., discussed more fully below
in "Other Transactions".  A majority of the Regent communities have Special Care
(Alzheimer's)  units,  which  have  a  significantly  higher  rental  rate  than
non-Special  Care  units.  The average occupancy rate decreased to 80.7% for the
first  two  quarters  of  2002  from  82.0%  for the first two quarters of 2001.

We intend to continue a selective growth strategy through acquiring and managing
new  communities  with  operating  characteristics  consistent  with our current
emphasis  on stabilizing occupancy and enhancing our operating model and service
offerings.

(3)  The communities under development at June 30, 2001, were developed by third
parties,  but  are  currently  managed  by  Emeritus.

We rely primarily on our residents' ability to pay our charges for services from
their  own  or  familial  resources  and  expect  that  we  will  do  so for the
foreseeable  future.  Although care in an assisted living community is typically
less  expensive  than  in  a skilled nursing facility, we believe that generally
only  seniors with income or assets meeting or exceeding the regional median can
afford  to  reside  in  our  communities.  Inflation or other circumstances that
adversely  affect  seniors'  ability  to  pay for assisted living services could
therefore  have  an  adverse  effect  on  our  business.  All  sources  of
resident-related revenue other than residents' private resources constitute less
than  10%  of  our  total  revenues.

We  have  incurred  net  operating losses since our inception and as of June 30,
2002,  we  had  an  accumulated  deficit of approximately $150.7 million.  These
losses  resulted  from  a  number  of  factors,  including:

* occupancy levels at our communities that were lower for longer periods than we
originally  anticipated  and have declined in the last two years consistent with
industry  patterns;

*  financing  costs  that  we  incurred  as  a  result of multiple financing and
refinancing  transactions;  and

*  administrative  and  corporate  expenses  that we increased to facilitate our
growth  and  maintain  operations.

During  1998,  we  decided  to reduce acquisition and development activities and
dispose of select communities that had been operating at a loss. We believe that
slowing  our  acquisition  and  development activities has enabled us to use our
resources  more  efficiently  and  increase  our  focus  on  enhancing community
operations.

                                       10



EMERITRUST  TRANSACTIONS

We manage 46 communities referred to as the Emeritrust communities, including 25
Emeritrust  I  communities,  16  Emeritrust  II  Operating  communities and five
Emeritrust  II Development communities, under management agreements described in
our  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.  We do not
recognize  management  fees  on  the  Emeritrust  communities  as revenue in our
condensed  consolidated  financial  statements to the extent that we are funding
the cash operating losses that include them, although the amounts of the funding
obligation  each  year include management fees earned by us under the management
agreements.  Correspondingly,  we  recognize  the  funding  obligation under the
agreement,  less  the applicable management fees, as an expense in our condensed
consolidated  financial statements under the category "Other, net".  Conversely,
if  the  applicable  management fees exceed the funding obligation, we recognize
the management fees less the funding obligation as management fee revenue in our
condensed  consolidated  financial  statements.

For  the  three  months  ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, (i) total management fees
earned  and  recognized  as  revenue  for  the  Emeritrust  I  communities  were
approximately  $402,000  and  $579,000, respectively; (ii) total management fees
earned  for  the  Emeritrust  II  Development  communities  were  $229,000,  and
$126,000,  respectively,  of  which  $203,000  and  $108,000, respectively, were
recognized  as  revenue; and (iii) management fees earned and recognized for the
Emeritrust  II  Operating communities, for which there is no funding obligation,
were  $479,000 and $454,000, respectively.  Thus, the management fees recognized
for  all  of the Emeritrust communities decreased $57,000 for the second quarter
of  2002  compared  to  the  comparable  period  in  2001.
For  the  Emeritrust I communities there was no funding obligation for the three
months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001.  Our funding obligations for the Emeritrust
II  Development  communities were $85,000 and $70,000 for the three months ended
June  30,  2002  and  2001,  respectively.  Thus,  our gross funding obligations
increased  $15,000  for  the  second  quarter of 2002 compared to the comparable
period  in  2001.

For  the  six  months  ended  June  30, 2002 and 2001, (i) total management fees
earned for the Emeritrust I communities were approximately $1.1 million for both
periods,  of  which  $1.1 million and $875,000, respectively, were recognized as
revenue;  (ii)  total  management  fees earned for the Emeritrust II Development
communities  were  $397,000,  and  $240,000, respectively, of which $358,000 and
$185,000,  respectively,  were  recognized as revenue; and (iii) management fees
earned  and  recognized  for  the Emeritrust II Operating communities, for which
there is no funding obligation, were $965,000 and $919,000, respectively.  Thus,
the  management  fees recognized for all of the Emeritrust communities increased
$444,000 for the first two quarters of 2002 compared to the comparable period in
2001.

For  the  Emeritrust  I  communities there was no funding obligation for the six
months  ended  June 30, 2002, compared to $387,000 for the six months ended June
30, 2001.  Our funding obligations for the Emeritrust II Development communities
were  $121,000  and  $218,000  for  the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.  Thus,  our  gross  funding obligations decreased $484,000 for the
first  two  quarters  of  2002  compared  to  the  comparable  period  in  2001.

OTHER  TRANSACTIONS

In  January  2002, we entered into management and accounting services agreements
with  Regent  Assisted  Living,  Inc.  of Portland, Oregon, to manage or provide
administrative  services  to 18 of their communities. The agreements provide for
the  Company  receiving a fixed base management/service fee with some agreements
having  provisions for incentive fees based upon improved community performance.
In  February  2002,  two of the communities were sold to a third party, owned or
controlled by Dan Baty. Concurrently, we entered into agreements with these Baty
entities  to  continue  managing  these communities for 5% of gross revenues. In
March  2002,  we  began  managing  one  additional  Regent  community.  In April

                                       11


2002,  one  community  that  we had been managing for Regent was sold to another
entity  and our management agreement terminated. Management fees recognized from
managing  the  Regent  communities  were approximately $743,000 in the first two
quarters  of  2002.

In  March  2002,  we entered into a 15-year master lease arrangement with Health
Care  REIT,  Inc.  ("HC  REIT") for four communities, two of which we previously
held an ownership interest in and two of which we previously leased from another
lessor.  With  respect  to  one  community, located in Fairfield, California, we
held  a  50% economic interest with a related party investor, which was owned or
controlled by Daniel R Baty, our chief executive officer.  Concurrently with the
closing  of  the  HC REIT transaction, we purchased the related party investor's
economic  interest  for his investment basis of $2.1 million plus a 9% return, a
$2.95 million total payment and then sold the Fairfield facility to HC REIT.  We
recognized a loss on the repurchase of approximately $158,000, which is included
in  "Other,  net" in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the
six  months  ended  June  30,  2002.  Another community, located in Paso Robles,
California,  was  50%  owned by an outside investor.  Also concurrently with the
closing  of  the HC REIT transaction, we purchased the remaining 50% interest in
this  community  for  $2.65 million and then sold the Paso Robles facility to HC
REIT.  The  remaining  two communities, located in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and
Urbana,  Illinois,  were  both  under  operating leases with a different lessor,
which agreed to convey those communities directly to HC REIT.  Concurrently with
the  closing  of  these  four  purchase and sale transactions, we entered into a
master  lease arrangement with HC REIT for all four communities and recognized a
loss  of  approximately  $372,000,  which  is  recorded  in  "Other, net" in the
condensed  consolidated  statements  of operations for the six months ended June
30,  2002.  The  loss is primarily comprised of write-offs of existing loan fees
and  lease  acquisition  costs  for  the four buildings.  Additionally, we had a
deferred  gain  on  sale  associated with the transaction that approximated $1.8
million  and  new  lease  acquisition  costs of $1.0 million that are both being
amortized  over  the  lease  period  of  15  years.

In  April  2002, we entered into agreements to acquire the ownership interest of
one community and the leasehold interest of seven communities for the assumption
of  the  mortgage debt relating to the owned community and the lease obligations
relating to the leased communities.  The eight communities, comprising 617 units
in  Louisiana  and Texas, had been operated previously by Horizon Bay Management
L.L.C.,  a  national  seniors  housing management company that manages the WHSLH
Realty,  L.L.C.  portfolio of senior housing properties.  In May and July, 2002,
we assigned our rights under these agreements to entities wholly owned by Daniel
R. Baty, the our chief executive officer, and entered into a five-year agreement
expiring  April 30, 2007, with the Baty entities to manage the eight communities
for  a management fee of 5% of gross revenue.  In completing the agreements with
Horizon  Bay, Mr. Baty personally guaranteed the mortgage and lease obligations.
As a part of these agreements, we have the right to acquire the interests of the
Baty  entities  in the eight communities at any time prior to April 30, 2007, by
assuming  the  mortgage debt and lease obligations and paying such Baty entities
the amount of any cash investment in the communities, plus 9% per annum.  In the
acquisition  agreements,  Horizon  Bay  agreed  to  fund operating losses of the
communities  to  the  extent  of  $2.5  million  in  the first twelve months and
$870,000  in  the  second  twelve  months  following  the  closing.  Under  the
management  agreements  with  the Baty entities, Emeritus has agreed to fund any
operating  losses  in  excess  of  these  limits  over the five-year term of the
management  agreement.  We  recognized  management  fee revenue of approximately
$133,000  from  these  communities  for  the  quarter  ended  June  30,  2002.


RESULTS  OF  OPERATIONS

Critical  Accounting  Policies  and  Estimates.

Management's  discussion  and analysis of our financial condition and results of
operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which
have  been  prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in  the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us

                                       12


to  make  estimates  and  judgments  that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities,  revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those
related  to resident programs and incentives, bad debts, investments, intangible
assets,  income  taxes,  financing  operations, restructuring, long-term service
contracts,  contingencies,  insurance  deductibles  and  litigation. We base our
estimates  on  historical  experience  and  on various other assumptions that we
believe  to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis  for  making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from
these  estimates  under  different  assumptions  or  conditions.

We  believe  the  following critical accounting policies are more significant to
the  judgments  and  estimates  used  in  the  preparation  of  our  condensed
consolidated  financial  statements.  Revisions in such estimates are charged to
income  in  the  period in which the facts that give rise to the revision become
known.  We  maintain  allowances  for  doubtful  accounts  for  estimated losses
resulting from the inability of our residents to make required payments.  If the
financial  condition  of  our  residents  were  to  deteriorate, resulting in an
impairment  of  their  ability  to  make  payments, additional allowances may be
required.  We  utilize  third-party  insurance  for  losses  and  liabilities
associated with general and professional liability claims subject to established
deductible  levels  on  a  per  occurrence basis.  Losses up to these deductible
levels  are  accrued  based upon Emeritus's estimates of the aggregate liability
for  claims  incurred.  If  these estimates are insufficient, additional charges
may  be required.  We hold shares in ARV Assisted Living, Inc. amounting to less
than  5%  of its shares.  ARV is publicly traded and has a volatile share price.
We  record  an  investment impairment charge when we believe this investment has
experienced  a  decline  in  value that is other than temporary.  Future adverse
changes  in  market  conditions  or  poor  operating  results  underlying  this
investment  could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value
of  the  investment  that  may  not  be  reflected  in this investment's current
carrying  value,  thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.
We  record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to the amount
that  is  more  likely  than  not to be realized, which at this time shows a net
asset  valuation  of  zero.  While  we have considered future taxable income and
ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for a
valuation  allowance, in the event we were to determine that we would be able to
realize  our  deferred  tax  assets  in the future in excess of our net recorded
amount,  an  adjustment  to  the deferred tax asset would increase income in the
period  such  determination  was  made.

The  following  discussion  for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, is
exclusive  of insurance surcharges and the move-in fee deferral unless otherwise
noted.

Comparison  of  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2002  and  2001
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Total  Operating  Revenues:  Total operating revenues for the three months ended
June 30, 2002, decreased by $1.2 million to $34.0 million from $35.2 million for
the  comparable  period  in  2001,  or  3.3%.

The change in revenue is primarily the result of a decrease in community revenue
of  approximately  $2.4  million,  which  resulted  from  the combined effect of
several  factors.  In  2001,  we  disposed  of  two  communities, which were not
included  in  our  consolidated portfolio in the second quarter of 2002 but were
included  in  the  comparable quarter of 2001. In the second quarter of 2002, we
changed  our  accounting  method for resident move-in fees to amortize such fees
over  the  average period residents stay, where we had previously recognized all
fees  as  revenues upon payment. This change resulted in recording approximately
$1.8  million  of  deferred  revenue  at  June  30,  2002.  These decreases were
partially offset by the net effect of an increase in average monthly revenue per
unit  and  a  decrease  in  the occupancy rate. The occupancy rate decreased 3.3
percentage  points  to  81.0%  for the second quarter of 2002 from 84.3% for the
second  quarter  of  2001.  Average  monthly revenue per unit was $2,533 for the
second quarter of 2002 compared to $2,404 for the comparable quarter of 2001, an
increase  of  approximately  5.4%.

The  decrease  in  community  revenue  was  partially  offset  by an increase in
management  fee  revenue of $700,000 and other service fees of $490,000, most of
which  were  insurance  surcharges  of  approximately $342,000 recognized in the
second  quarter  of  2002.  Management  fee  revenue increased partly due to the
increased  number  of  communities  under  management  agreements.  In addition,
improved  performance  of managed communities allowed us to recognize additional
base  management  fees  and  performance-driven  contingent  management  fees.

Community  Operations:  Community  operating expenses for the three months ended
June  30, 2002, increased by $1.2 million to $21.1 million from $19.9 million in
the  second quarter of 2001, or 5.9%.  The change was comprised of a decrease of
$650,000  due  to  the disposal of two communities and an increase totaling $1.8
million,  primarily  due  to  increases in liability, workers' compensation, and
health  insurance  costs  of $1.1 million and added personnel expense associated
with  our  increasing  emphasis  on  dementia  care  (Alzheimer's).  Community
operating expenses as a percentage of total operating revenue increased to 58.9%
in  the  second  quarter  of  2002  from  56.6%  in  the second quarter of 2001.

General  and  Administrative:  General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the
three  months  ended June 30, 2002, increased $197,000 to $4.9 million from $4.7
million  for  the  comparable period in 2001, or 4.2%.  As a percentage of total
operating  revenues,  G&A expenses increased to 13.6% for the three months ended
June  30, 2002, compared to 13.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2001.  G&A
expenses  rose  primarily due to increases in the number of employees and normal
increases  in  employee  salaries.  Recent  growth  in total communities managed
through  additional  contracts  has  led  to  some  added  operational  and
administrative  employees.  Since  more  than half of the communities we operate
are  managed,  G&A  expense  as  a  percentage  of  operating  revenues  for all
communities,  including  managed  communities,  may  be  more  meaningful  for
industry-wide  comparisons.  These  percentages were 5.7% and 6.8% for the three
months  ended  June  30,  2002  and  2001,  respectively.

Depreciation  and  Amortization:  Depreciation  and  amortization  for the three
months  ended  June  30, 2002, was $1.7 million compared to $1.9 million for the
comparable  period  in  2001.  This  decrease  is  primarily  due  to  decreased
depreciable  assets  because  of  sales/leaseback  arrangements.  In  2002,
depreciation  and

                                       14


amortization  represents  4.7% of total operating revenues, compared to 5.3% for
the  comparable  period in 2001. The decrease as a percentage of revenues is due
to  decreased depreciable assets. Facility Lease Expense: Facility lease expense
for  the  three  months  ended  June 30, 2002, was $7.4 million compared to $6.8
million for the comparable period of 2001, representing an increase of $563,000,
or 8.2%. While we leased 44 communities as of both June 30, 2002 and 2001, there
were changes in the composition of the leased communities during the periods. As
part  of  the  HC REIT transaction discussed above, we refinanced two previously
mortgaged  communities  with  leases.  Of  the total increase in operating lease
expense,  approximately two-thirds resulted from the refinancing and the balance
was  attributable  to  rent  escalation  provisions in existing leases. Facility
lease  expense  as a percentage of revenues was 20.7% for the three months ended
June  30,  2002,  and  19.5%  for  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2001.

Interest  Income:  Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2002, was
$113,000  versus  $318,000  for the comparable period of 2001.  This decrease is
primarily  attributable  to  smaller  balances  in  interest-bearing  notes from
affiliates, declining interest rates, and an adjustment in the second quarter of
2001  of  $122,000  increasing  interest  income  in  the  prior  period.

Interest  Expense:  Interest  expense  for the three months ended June 30, 2002,
was  $2.9  million  compared  to $3.5 million for the comparable period of 2001.
This  decrease of $683,000, or 19.3%, is attributable to lower interest rates on
our  variable  rate debt and to the sale/leaseback of two communities as part of
the  master  lease  arrangement  with  HC  REIT, discussed above, which replaced
mortgage  interest  with new operating lease payments.  As a percentage of total
operating  revenues, interest expense decreased to 8.0% from 10.0% for the three
months  ended  June  30,  2002 and 2001, respectively, reflecting lower interest
rates  .

Preferred  dividends:  For  the  three  months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, the
preferred  dividends  were  approximately  $1.7  million  and  $1.6  million,
respectively.  Since  dividends  on  the  Series  A shares were not paid for six
consecutive  quarters,  the  Series  A dividends were calculated on a compounded
cumulative  basis,  retroactively  in the first quarter of 2002. This caused the
preferred dividends to be approximately $112,000 higher in the second quarter of
2002  as  compared to the second quarter of 2001. In addition, since we have not
paid  these dividends for six consecutive quarters, both our Series A and Series
B  shareholders  became  entitled  to  elect one additional director each to our
board  of  directors  at each annual shareholders' meeting until such time as we
have  paid  the  accrued  dividends,  but  have  not  chosen  to  do  so.

 Comparison  of  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2002  and  2001
 -------------------------------------------------------------------

Total  Operating  Revenues:  Total  operating  revenues for the six months ended
June 30, 2002, increased by $202,000 to $70.2 million from $70.0 million for the
comparable  period  in  2001,  or  0.3%.

The change in revenue is primarily the result of a decrease in community revenue
of  approximately  $2.9  million,  which  resulted  from  the combined effect of
several factors. In 2001, we disposed of three communities, the results of which
were  not  included  in  our consolidated portfolio in the first two quarters of
2002 but were included in the comparable quarters of 2001. In the second quarter
of  2002, we changed our accounting method for resident move-in fees to amortize
such  fees  over  the  average  period  residents  stay, where we had previously
recognized  all  fees as revenue upon payment. This change resulted in recording
approximately  $1.8 million of deferred revenue at June 30, 2002.  This decrease
was partially offset by the net effect of an increase in average monthly revenue
per  unit and a decrease in the occupancy rate. The occupancy rate decreased 3.3
percentage points to 81.5% for the first two quarters of 2002 from 84.8% for the
comparable  period  in 2001. Average monthly revenue per unit was $2,514 for the
first  two  quarters  of  2002 compared to $2,375 for the comparable quarters of
2001,  an  increase  of  approximately  5.9%.

                                       15


The  decrease  in  community revenue was offset by an increase in management fee
revenue of $2.2 million and other service fee revenue of $950,000, most of which
were  insurance surcharges of approximately $683,000 recognized in the first two
quarters  of 2002.  Management fee revenue increased partly due to the increased
number  of  communities  under  management  agreements.  In  addition,  improved
performance  of  managed  communities  allowed  us  to recognize additional base
management  fees  and  performance-driven  contingent  management  fees.

Community  Operations:  Community  operating  expenses  for the six months ended
June  30, 2002, increased by $1.1 million to $41.6 million from $40.5 million in
the first two quarters of 2001, or 2.7%.  The change was comprised of a decrease
of  $1.0  million  due  to  the  disposal  of  three communities and an increase
totaling  $2.1  million,  primarily  due  to  increases  in  liability, workers'
compensation,  and  health  insurance  costs of $1.7 million and added personnel
expense  associated with our increasing emphasis on dementia care (Alzheimer's).
Community  operating  expenses  as  a  percentage  of  total  operating  revenue
decreased  to  57.9%  in  the  second  quarter  of 2002 from 58.0% in the second
quarter  of  2001.

General  and  Administrative:  General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the
six  months  ended  June  30, 2002, increased $953,000 to $9.8 million from $8.8
million  for  the comparable period in 2001, or 10.8%.  As a percentage of total
operating  revenues,  G&A  expenses  increased to 13.6% for the six months ended
June  30,  2002,  compared to 12.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2001.  G&A
expenses  rose  primarily  due  to  increases in the number of employees, normal
increases  in  employee  salaries, and costs related to various employee benefit
programs.   Recent  growth  in  total  communities  managed  through  additional
contracts  has  led  to  some  added  operational  and administrative employees.
Since more than half of the communities we operate are managed, G&A expense as a
percentage  of  operating  revenues  for  all  communities,  including  managed
communities,  may  be  more  meaningful  for  industry-wide  comparisons.  These
percentages  were 5.7% and 6.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization:  Depreciation and amortization for the six months
ended June 30, 2002, was approximately $3.5 million compared to $3.7 million for
the six months ended June 30, 2001.  This decrease is primarily due to decreased
depreciable  assets  because  of  sales/leaseback  arrangements.   In  2002,
depreciation  and  amortization  represents  4.9%  of  total operating revenues,
compared  to  5.2%  for  the  comparable  period  in  2001.  The  decrease  as a
percentage  of  revenues  is  due  to decreased depreciable assets and increased
revenues.

Facility  Lease  Expense:  Facility  lease expense for the six months ended June
30,  2002, was $14.1 million compared to $13.7 million for the comparable period
of  2001,  representing  an  increase  of $459,000, or 3.4%.  While we leased 44
communities  as  of  both  June  30,  2002  and  2001, there were changes in the
composition  of  the  leased  communities  during  the periods.  The increase in
expense  was  primarily  due  to  lease escalator provisions in existing leases.
Facility  lease  expense  increases  associated  with  the  HC  REIT transaction
discussed  above,  were  offset through reduced costs from the disposal of three
communities  in  the  first, third, and fourth quarters of 2001.  Facility lease
expense  as  a  percentage  of  revenues  remained  virtually  unchanged and was
approximately  19.6%  for  the  six  months  ended  June  30,  2002  and  2001.
Interest  Income:  Interest  income  for the six months ended June 30, 2002, was
$222,000  versus  $558,000  for the comparable period of 2001.  This decrease is
primarily  attributable  to  smaller  balances  in  interest-bearing  notes from
affiliates, declining interest rates, and an adjustment in the second quarter of
2001  of  $122,000  increasing  interest  income  in  the  prior  period.

Interest  Expense:  Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2002, was
$5.8  million  compared  to $7.1 million for the comparable period of 2001. This
decrease  of  $1.3 million, or 18.3%, is attributable to lower interest rates on
our  variable  rate debt and to the sale/leaseback of two communities as part of
the  master  lease  arrangement with HC REIT, as discussed above, which replaced
mortgage  interest  with  new operating lease payments. As a percentage of total
operating  revenues,  interest  expense  decreased  to  8.0%

                                       16


from  10.0%  for  the  six  months  ended  June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively,
reflecting  increased  revenues  in conjunction with lower interest rates in the
first  two  quarters  of  2002.

Other,  net:  Other, net (expense) increased by $489,000 to $741,000 for the six
months  ended  June  30,  2002,  from $252,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2001.  The  net change is predominately comprised of the following items: During
the  first  two  quarters  of  2002,  we  repurchased a related party's economic
interest  in  a  172-unit  community  resulting  in  an  expense  of  $158,000.
Additionally,  the  sale/leaseback  of  two  communities  and  re-lease  of  two
additional  communities  resulted  in a transaction-related expense of $372,000,
for  a  combined  impact  of  $530,000 for the first two quarters of 2002. These
expenses  compare to sale/leaseback related gains in the two quarters ended June
30, 2001, of $189,000. This increase of $719,000 is offset by both a decrease of
$198,000 in our net funding obligation expense associated with our obligation to
fund  operating  deficits  of  the  Emeritrust  I  and Emeritrust II Development
communities  and  a  property  tax  refund  of  approximately  $64,000.

Preferred  dividends:  For  the  six  months  ended  June 30, 2002 and 2001, the
preferred  dividends  were  approximately  $3.7  million  and  $3.2  million,
respectively.  Since  dividends  on  the  Series  A shares were not paid for six
consecutive  quarters,  the  Series  A dividends were calculated on a compounded
cumulative  basis,  retroactively in the first quarter of 2002.  This caused the
preferred  dividends  to  be  approximately  $498,000  higher  in  the first two
quarters  of  2002  as compared to the first two quarters of 2001.  In addition,
since  we  have  not paid these dividends for six consecutive quarters, both our
Series  A  and  Series  B  shareholders  became entitled to elect one additional
director  each  to  our  board of directors at each annual shareholders' meeting
until such time as we have paid the accrued dividends, but have not chosen to do
so.

Same  Community  Comparison

We  operated  60  communities on a comparable basis during both the three months
ended  June  30,  2002 and 2001.  The following table sets forth a comparison of
same  community  results  of  operations,  excluding  general and administrative
expenses,  for  the  three  months  ended  June  30,  2002  and  2001.

The  same communities represented $31.2 million or 91.8% of our total revenue of
$34.0 million for the second quarter of 2002.  Same community revenues decreased
by  $890,000  or  2.8%  for the quarter ended June 30, 2002, from the comparable
period  in  2001.  In  the  second  quarter of 2002, we began deferring resident
move-in fees to amortize such fees over the average period residents stay, where
we  had  previously recognized all fees as revenue upon payment.  Excluding this
deferral  of move-in fees, revenues would have increased approximately $903,000,
partially  due  to  insurance  surcharges to residents of approximately $338,000
recognized  in  the period and the combined effects of declines in occupancy and
rate  increases.  Average  occupancy decreased to 81.2% in the second quarter of
2002 from 84.6% in the second quarter of 2001.  Giving effect to the deferral of
move-in  fees,  average  revenue  per  unit  increased  by  5.3%.

                                       17


Community  operating  expenses  increased  approximately  $2.0  million due to a
combination of factors, including higher liability insurance costs that were not
fully offset by rate surcharges, normal salary increases, increases in workman's
comp  charges,  health  insurance  and  other  employee costs, as well as normal
increases in other operating expense categories.  Occupancy expenses, consisting
of  facility  lease  expense, depreciation and amortization and interest expense
rose  approximately  $246,000  as  a  result  of  net  effect  of sale/leaseback
transactions  relating  to  two  communities,  rent  escalation related to other
communities  and  new  subordinated  debt  financing,  partially offset by lower
interest  rates.

For  the quarter ended June 30, 2002, net income decreased to a loss of $582,000
from  $2.4  million income for the comparable period of 2001, as a result of the
combined  effect  of  the  deferral  of  move-in fees and increases in community
operating  expenses.

LIQUIDITY  AND  CAPITAL  RESOURCES

For  the  six  months ended June 30, 2002, net cash used in operating activities
was $1.7 million compared to $1.8 million for the comparable period in the prior
year.  The  primary  components of operating cash used were the net loss of $5.2
million  and  the  net  increase  in  other  operating assets and liabilities of
$477,200,  partially  offset  by  depreciation and amortization of $3.5 million.
The  primary components of operating cash used for the six months ended June 30,
2001,  were  the  net  loss of $3.5 million, the net increase in other operating
assets  and  liabilities  of  $1.4 million, and amortization of deferred gain of
$380,000,  partially  offset  by  depreciation and amortization of $3.7 million.

Net  cash provided by investing activities amounted to $19.8 million for the six
months  ended  June  30,  2002, and was comprised primarily of funds from the HC
REIT  transaction  previously  discussed  under  "Other Transactions".  Net cash
provided  by  investing  activities  amounted to $4.4 million for the six months
ended  June  30,  2001,  and was comprised primarily of repayment of advances by
third  parties  and  affiliates  of  $4.3  million  and  proceeds  from  the
sale/leaseback  of  one community, which was partially offset by the acquisition
of  property  and  equipment  and  investment  in  lease  acquisition  costs.

For  the  six  months ended June 30, 2002, net cash used in financing activities
was  $16.9  million primarily from long-term debt repayments, which include debt
repayments  related to the HC REIT transaction previously discussed under "Other
Transactions", partially offset by decreases in restricted deposits and proceeds
of  long-term borrowings.  For the six months ended June 30, 2001, net cash used
in  financing  activities  was  $2.8  million  primarily  from  the repayment of
short-term  and  long-term  borrowings.

In  February 2002, through Heller Healthcare Finance, we refinanced three of the
properties  in  our $71.8 million Deutsche Bank AG loan portfolio.  The new loan
of  $30.6  million  matures  February  2004  and  provides for monthly principal
payments  of  approximately  $39,000  in addition to interest at LIBOR plus four
percent.  This  refinancing  in turn satisfied our extension agreement dated May
31,  2001,  with Deutsche Bank AG to extend to May 31, 2003 the maturity date of
the  remaining  $46.3  million  of debt, which is secured by the remaining seven
properties  in  the  original  portfolio.  The remaining balance of our Deutsche
Bank AG loan of $40.6 million was reclassified from long-term to current portion
of  long-term  debt  during  the  second  quarter  of  2002.

We  have  incurred  significant  operating losses since our inception and have a
working  capital  deficit  of  $59.2  million,  although $2.5 million represents
deferred  revenues  and $10.5 million of preferred cash dividends is only due if
declared  by our board of directors.  To date, we have been dependent upon third
party  financing  or  disposition  of  assets  to fund operations.  We intend to
continue  to  refinance  or restructure debt as necessary with our current third
party  lenders.  We  cannot,  however,  guaranty  that third party financing and
refinancing  or  dispositions  of  assets  will  be available timely or on terms
acceptable  to  us.  In  April  2002,  we completed a lease and debt transaction
having  a  beneficial  impact  on working capital of $6.7 million in conjunction
with  the HC REIT master lease transaction, more fully discussed in the

                                       18


Notes  to  Condensed  Consolidated  Financial  Statements  and  elsewhere  in
Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis  of  Financial  Condition and Results of
Operations.  With  respect to the $40.6 million of mortgage debt that matures on
May  31,  2003, we have been in discussions with the lender and others regarding
restructuring or refinancing of the debt and, although we believe the issue will
be  resolved  prior  to  the  maturity of this debt, there has been no agreement
reached at this time and we have no commitment for refinancing. If we are unable
to  restructure  or  refinance  this  debt,  the lender could declare the entire
amount  immediately  due  and  payable  at  maturity and could begin foreclosure
proceedings  with  respect  to  the seven assisted living properties that secure
this debt. In addition, this default would result in defaults under other leases
and  loan  agreements. Except for the potential financial impact of being unable
to  refinance  the  aforementioned  mortgage debt, we believe we have sufficient
funds  to  sustain  operations  at  least  through  June  30,  2003.

Many  of  our  debt  instruments  and  leases contain "cross-default" provisions
pursuant  to  which a default under one obligation can cause a default under one
or  more other lease and loan obligations.  Such cross-default provisions affect
14  owned assisted living properties and 36 operated under leases.  Accordingly,
any  event  of  default  could  cause a material adverse effect on our financial
condition  if such debt or leases are cross-defaulted.  At June 30, 2002, we are
in  compliance  with  our  debt  and  lease  covenants.


IMPACT  OF  INFLATION

To  date,  inflation  has  not  had a significant impact on Emeritus.  Inflation
could,  however,  affect  our  future  revenues  and operating income due to our
dependence  on  the  senior resident population, most of whom rely on relatively
fixed  incomes  to  pay  for our services.  The monthly charges for a resident's
unit  and  assisted  living  services  are  influenced  by  the  location of the
community and local competition.  Our ability to increase revenues in proportion
to  increased  operating expenses may be limited.  We typically do not rely to a
significant  extent  on  governmental  reimbursement  programs.  In  pricing our
services,  we  attempt  to  anticipate  inflation  levels,  but  there can be no
assurance  that  we  will  be  able  to respond to inflationary pressures in the
future.

FORWARD-LOOKING  STATEMENTS

"Safe  Harbor"  Statement  under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995:  A  number  of the matters and subject areas discussed in this report that
are  not  historical  or  contain  current  facts  deal  with  potential  future
circumstances,  operations,  and prospects.  The discussion of these matters and
subject  areas  is qualified by the inherent risks and uncertainties surrounding
future  expectations  generally,  and also may materially differ from our actual
future experience as a result of such factors as: the effects of competition and
economic  conditions  on  the  occupancy  levels in our communities; our ability
under current market conditions to maintain and increase our resident charges in
accordance  with  our  rate  enhancement  program  without  adversely  affecting
occupancy  levels;  our  ability to control community operation expenses without
adversely  affecting  the  level of occupancy and the level of resident charges;
the  ability  of  our operations to generate cash flow sufficient to service our
debt  and  other  fixed  payment  requirements;  our  ability to find sources of
financing and capital on satisfactory terms to meet our cash requirements to the
extent  that  they are not met by operations.  We have attempted to identify, in
context,  certain  of  the  factors  that  we currently believe may cause actual
future  experience and results to differ from our current expectations regarding
the  matter or subject area discussed in this report.  These and other risks and
uncertainties are detailed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission,  including  our Annual Reports on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on
Form  10-Q.

ITEM  3.   QUANTITATIVE  AND  QUALITATIVE  DISCLOSURES  ABOUT  MARKET  RISK

Our  earnings  are  affected  by  changes  in  interest rates as a result of our
short-term  and  long-term  borrowings.  We  manage this risk by obtaining fixed
rate  borrowings  when  possible. At June 30, 2002, our variable rate borrowings
totaled  approximately  $71.0 million.  If market interest rates were to average
2%  more,  our annual interest expense and net loss would increase approximately
$1.4  million.  This  amount  is  determined  by  considering  the  impact  of
hypothetical  interest  rates  on our outstanding variable rate borrowings as of
June  30,  2002, and does not consider changes in the actual level of borrowings
that  may  occur  subsequent  to  June  30,  2002.  This  analysis also does not
consider  the  effects  of  the  reduced level of overall economic activity that
could  exist in such an environment, or our current funding requirements for the
Emeritrust  communities,  nor  does it consider actions that management might be
able to take with respect to our financial structure to mitigate the exposure to
such  a  change.
