devoted, sufficient resources to this matter. In addition, as described on the
attachment, the Company has discovered that it overaccrued revenues in 1997,
and has been working to restate its 1997 financial statements based upon this
determination.

ATTACHMENT TO
FORM 12B-25
CORECARE SYSTEMS, INC.
COMMISSION FILE NO. 000-24807
In its Registration Statement on Form 10-SB, the Company reported a loss from
operations of $(460,259) for the year ended December 31, 1997, a loss before
income tax benefit of $(2,586,076) and net income after income tax benefit of
$1,197,656. Subsequent to the filing of the Company's Form 10-SB, the Company
determined that the reported 1997 results were overstated due to over-accrual of
revenues. The Company over-accrued amounts due from a significant third party
payor, resulting from a miscalculation of the allowable per diem charges for
in-patient services. Primarily as a result of the restatement of these
revenues, the Company's loss from operations is anticipated to be restated from
($460,259) to approximately $(2,840,000). The Company's operating loss in 1998
is anticipated to be approximately $(2,730,000).
Based on the prior calculation of the allowable per diem charges for inpatient
services, at the time the 1997 financial statements were issued and at the time
the 10-SB was filed, Management's estimates permitted the Company to record a
deferred tax benefit in 1997 in accordance with SFAS 109. Had the recalculated
per diem charge been used in Management's estimates, the deferred tax benefit
would not have been recognized. As a result, the Company's 1997 results will be
restated to eliminate the $3,783,732 income tax benefit previously reported. As
a result of the elimination of this income tax benefit and the reduction in
revenues, the Company's previously reported net income of $1,197,656 in 1997
will be restated to a net loss of $(4,960,000).
1998 revenues increased over 100% over restated 1997 revenues, but the Company
anticipates reporting a loss from operations of approximately ($2,730,000) in
1998 and a net loss of approximately ($4,590,000). The operating loss includes
amortization of deferred financing charges of approximately $2,400,000, an
increase of approximately $1,700,000 from the previous year. This amortization
is primarily related to deferred financing charges from the Company's various
debt financings. The Company considers the deferred financing charges to be
non-recurring expenses. The operating loss also includes an impaired asset
write-down of approximately $369,000, also a non-recurring expense. A summary
of the previously reported and anticipated restated 1997 results and anticipated
1998 results is as follows:
