MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS CoreCare Systems, Inc. (the "Company") is a regional behavioral health care network operating in Eastern Pennsylvania. The Company's headquarters are located at c/o Kirkbride Center, 111 North 49th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19139 having recently moved its executive offices from 940 West Valley Road, Suite 2102, Wayne, PA 19087. Its telephone number at its new location is (215) 471-2600. In 1996, the Company transferred its state of incorporation from Nevada to Delaware. Management's discussion and analysis is based upon the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the nine month periods ended September 30, 1998 and 1997, and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after elimination of any inter-company balances and transactions. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS: Revenue - Revenue in the nine month period ending September 30, 1998, ------- was $15,985,008, representing an increase of approximately 80% over total income in the comparable 1997 period. The material increase in total income in the first nine months of 1998, compared with the prior year period, is attributable to a number of factors, including the following: (a) Nine months operation of Kirkbride Center during 1998 as compared to seven months during 1997; (b) Patient days at the Kirkbride Center and Westmeade at Warwick tripled during 1998 from 1997; (c) Outpatient revenues at the Kirkbride Center and Penn Interpersonal Communications, Inc. doubled in 1998 over 1997; (d) New programs at the Kirkbride Center consisting of geriatric partial hospitalization and 43 drug and alcohol rehabilitation beds opened in July,1998; (e) Dual diagnosis program at the Kirkbride Center expanded during 1998; and (f) One of the Company's subsidiaries, Managed Careware, Inc. d/b/a CoreCare Management, Inc. ("CMI"), had three months of operations in 1997 versus nine months in 1998. Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses - Operating ---------------------------------------------------------- expenses increased by approximately $900,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1998 over 1997, however, as a percentage of total income the expense declined from 59% in 1997 to 39% in 1998. This was due primarily to the improvement in selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, which declined to 15% in 1998 from 37% in 1997. This was partially offset by increase salary and employee benefit expense from 9% in 1997 to 18% in 1998. The SG&A declined by $900,000 due to cost savings realized from cancellation of a management services contract for the Kirkbride Center for five months in 1997 and consolidation savings following the acquisition of CMI in July 1997. The salary expenses increased by approximately $2.1 million to $2.9 million due to an increase in volume and cancellation of the management services agreement. Direct Costs - Direct costs include costs principally related to ------------- patient care such as costs of nursing, physicians, technicians, pharmacy, dietary, laboratory, housekeeping and supplies. The ratio of direct costs to revenue was 45% in 1998 versus 54% in 1997. The improvement in gross profit was due to the stabilization of operations compared to the less efficient utilization of resources following the acquisition of the Kirkbride Center. Net Income - Net income in the nine months ended September 30, 1998 ----------- was $1,251,761 (approximately 7.8% of revenue) compared to a net loss in the first nine months of 1997 of ($1,126,933), principally as the result of the increase in total income and decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total income, as discussed above. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES: Due to the Company's rapid growth during 1998, the Company has experienced liquidity constraints from time to time. This was offset by a completion of a major financing with WRH Mortgage, Inc. during the first quarter of 1998. These funds provided capital for improvements to the Kirkbride Center, reduction of more expensive debt, and working capital. The Company is in the process of attempting to consolidate its short-term debt and to refinance the Kirkbride Center mortgage at a lower interest rate. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
