Page 5 of 16 CHEMED CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X. Consequently, they do not include all the disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, in the opinion of the management of Chemed Corporation (the "Company"), the financial statements presented herein contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Chemed"). For further information regarding Chemed's accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in Chemed's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1994. 2. Earnings per common share are computed using the weighted average number of shares of capital stock outstanding and exclude the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options as it is not material. 3. Discontinued operations include the following (in thousands):

4. During the second quarter of 1995, the Company's Veratex Group acquired the business and assets of the CSD Medical Division ("CSDM") of Central States Diversified Inc. for $7,650,000 in cash. CSDM is a manufacturer and distributor of disposable paper products marketed under the ProTexMor brand. The results of operations of CSDM are immaterial to the consolidated results of the Company. Page 6 of 16 The aggregate purchase price of CSDM and other purchase accounting business combinations completed during the first nine months of 1995 was allocated on a preliminary basis as follows (in thousands): Working capital $ 2,445 Goodwill 7,448 Other-net 947 ------- Total Net Assets 10,840 Less-cash and cash equivalents acquired (103) ------- Net cash used $10,737 ======= 5. In July 1995 the Company's Tidi Products Group (formerly Veratex Group) completed the sale of the business and assets of its Veratex Retail division to Henry Schein Inc. ("HSI") for $10 million in cash plus a $4.1 million note receivable due March 31, 1996. An additional payment of up to $2 million dollars, contingent upon the combined sales of Veratex Retail and HSI's retail group for the year ended July 7, 1996, may be due from HSI in 1996. This divestiture will permit the Tidi Products Group to focus its efforts on its wholesale manufacturing and distribution operation. Additionally, the divestiture agreement stipulates that HSI will purchase annual minimum quantities of medical and dental supplies from Tidi for the next ten years. The sale of Veratex Retail and resultant modest gain are not expected to have a material impact on Chemed's results for the year. 6. Nonrecurring expenses amounting to $538,000 pretax ($355,000 aftertax; $208,000 after minority interest or $.02 per share) were incurred by Roto-Rooter in the third quarter of 1995 in evaluating Chemed's proposal to acquire the 42% minority interest in Roto-Rooter common stock. The proposal was withdrawn in August 1995. Also, during the third quarter of 1994, the Company recorded $1,705,000 pretax expenses ($1,107,000 aftertax or $.11 per share) as the result of downsizing staffs at various locations and refocussing marketing efforts within its Tidi Product's Group. Page 7 of 16 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Financial Condition - ------------------- The increase in cash and marketable securities from $24,239,000 at December 31, 1994 to $34,172,000 was attributable to the reclassification of a U.S. Treasury Note maturing in January 1996 ($9,618,000) to current assets (marketable securities). The increase in current portion of notes receivable from $5,740,000 at December 31, 1994 to $9,773,000 at September 30, 1995 is attributable to the note receivable from Henry Shein, Inc. (due March 1996) received from the sale of the Veratex Retail division in July 1995. Other investments increased from $85,073,000 at December 31, 1994 to $92,578,000 primarily as a result of market appreciation of the Company's investments during the first nine months of 1995, partially offset by the above mentioned reclassification of a U.S. Treasury note to current assets. The decline in the noncurrent note receivable from $5,455,000 at December 31, 1994 to nil at September 30, 1995 is due to the reclassification of the last installment of a five- year note (due April 1, 1996) to current assets. At September 30, 1995 Chemed had approximately $38,125,000 of unused lines of credit with various banks. Based on the Company's current financial position and its available credit lines, management believes its sources of capital and liquidity are satisfactory for the Company's needs in the foreseeable future.

Page 9 of 16 Third Quarter 1995 Versus Third Quarter 1994 - ---------------------------------------------- Net sales of the National Sanitary Supply segment for the third quarter of 1995 totaled $89,396,000, an increase of 10% over sales recorded during the third quarter of 1994. Most locations throughout the United States experienced sales volume increases resulting from enhanced sales and marketing efforts such as a full-line product catalog and promotional programs. Price increases also helped fuel sales growth during the third quarter. The operating margin of this segment improved from 3.9% during the third quarter of 1994 to 4.3% during the third quarter of 1995. Sales and service revenues of the Roto-Rooter segment for the third quarter of 1995 totaled $45,280,000, an increase of 5% over the $43,057,000 of revenues recorded for the third quarter of 1994. For the third quarter of 1995, plumbing revenues, which account for approximately one-fourth of total revenues, and sewer and drain cleaning revenues, which account for approximately one-third, increased 20% and 9%,respectively, over amounts recorded in the comparable quarter of 1994. Revenues of Roto-Rooter's service contract business (Service America) for the third quarter of 1995, which account for approximately one-third of this segment's total revenue, declined 8% as compared with revenues recorded in the third quarter of 1994. Excluding the sales of the maintenance and management subsidiary, which was sold effective March 31, 1995, Service America's revenues for the third quarter of 1995 were 2% greater than revenues of the third quarter of 1994. The sale of this marginal business permits management to focus its efforts on the core appliance and air conditioning repair and maintenance business. The operating margin of the Roto-Rooter segment declined from 9.8% during the third quarter of 1994 to 8.0% during the third quarter of 1995 largely as a result of nonrecurring costs ($538,000) incurred by Roto-Rooter in evaluating Chemed's proposal to acquire the 42% minority interest in Roto-Rooter (the proposal was withdrawn in August 1995). In addition, Roto-Rooter's operating margin was impacted by declining margins of Service America, as a result of a higher- than-expected number of service calls in the third quarter of 1995. Sales of the Tidi Products segment (formerly the Veratex segment) declined from $24,068,000 during the third quarter of 1994 to $19,501,000 during the third quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of the sale of the retail division in July 1995. Excluding the sales of the retail division, and of Central States Diversified (acquired in May 1995), the sales of Tidi Products for 1995's third quarter increased 14% over sales recorded in the third quarter of 1994. The operating margin of Page 10 of 16 this segment increased from 3.0% in the third quarter of 1994 to 8.0% in the third quarter of 1995. Excluding nonrecurring marketing and severance costs incurred in 1994, the operating margin during the third quarter of 1994 would have been 5.7%. The operating margin for 1995 was also favorably impacted by the Central States acquisition and the higher profit margins of the remaining wholesale and manufacturing business. Total revenues of the Patient Care segment increased from $17,732,000 in the third quarter of 1994 to $23,377,000 in the third quarter of 1995. This 32% revenue increase is attributable to the opening of several new branches in 1994 and the first part of 1995. As a result of the significant revenue growth, Patient Care was able to leverage its fixed costs and improve its operating margin from 4.1% during the third quarter of 1994 to 5.6% during the third quarter of 1995. Income from operations increased from $6,348,000 in the third quarter of 1994 to $8,681,000 during the third quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of increases in operating profit reported by National Sanitary Supply, Tidi Products and Patient Care. In addition, the increase in income from operations was aided by a lower level of nonrecurring expenses in the third quarter of 1995 ($538,000) as compared with such charges in the third quarter of 1994 ($1,705,000 for costs of downsizing staffs at various locations and refocusing marketing efforts within Tidi Products). Other income for the third quarter of 1995 totalled $4,775,000 as compared with $2,640,000 for the third quarter of 1994. This increase was attributable to larger gains on sales of investments in the 1995 quarter coupled with increased interest income due to larger balances of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities during 1995. During the third quarter of 1995 the Company's effective income tax rate was 38.6% as compared with 34.2% during the comparable period of 1994. The higher rate in 1995 was attributable primarily to lower favorable tax adjustments and E.S.O.P. dividend tax credits (as a percentage of pretax income) in the 1995 period. Chemed's income from continuing operations increased from $3,210,000 ($.33 per share) during the third quarter of 1994 to $5,708,000 ($.58 per share) during the third quarter of 1995. Earnings for the third quarter of 1995 include aftertax gains aggregating $1,561,000 ($.16 per share) from the sale of various investments and Chemed's share of Roto-Rooter's nonrecurring expenses ($208,000 after income taxes and minority interest--$.02 per share). During the third quarter of 1994 the Company recorded aftertax gains of $735,000 ($.08 per share) from the Page 11 of 16 sale of a portion of its investments and nonrecurring expenses of $1,107,000 aftertax ($.11 per share). Net income for 1995's third quarter totalled $7,550,000 ($.77 per share) as compared with $5,094,000 ($.52 per share) for the third quarter of 1994. Discontinued operations for the third quarter of 1995 included a $1,842,000 ($.19 per share) adjustment to the tax provision on the gain on the sale of operations discontinued in 1991. For the third quarter of 1994, discontinued operations amounted to $1,884,000 aftertax ($.19 per share) and included $1,471,000 from adjustments to accruals related to operations discontinued in 1991 and $413,000 equity earnings from Omnicare, Inc. ("Omnicare"), an equity investment discontinued in November 1994. Nine Months Ended September 30, 1995 Versus September 30, 1994 - -------------------------------------------------------------- The National Sanitary Supply segment recorded sales of $255,760,000 during the first nine months of 1995, an increase of 11% over amounts recorded in the comparable period of 1994. Sales increases were recorded in most areas of the country and were the result of both sales price and sales volume increases in 1995. National Sanitary's operating margin increased from 3.1% during the first nine months of 1994 to 3.4% during the comparable period of 1995. Sales and service revenues of the Roto-Rooter segment for the first nine months of 1995 increased by 5% as compared with amounts recorded during the first nine months of 1994. This modest sales growth was attributable to an 8% decline in the revenues of Roto-Rooter's service contract business (Service America) coupled with revenue increases of 11% and 16%, respectively, in Roto-Rooter's sewer, drain cleaning and plumbing repair business for the 1995 period. The decline in Service America's revenues during 1995 is primarily attributable to the sale of the management and maintenance business during the first quarter of 1995. Roto-Rooter's operating margin declined from 8.9% during the first nine months of 1994 to 8.5% during the first nine months of 1995. Excluding $538,000 of nonrecurring expenses, the operating margin for the first nine months of 1995 would have been 8.9%. Sales of the Tidi Products segment declined from $72,965,000 in the first nine months of 1994 to $70,202,000 in the first nine months of 1995. Excluding the sales of the retail division (sold in July 1995) and of Central States Diversified (acquired in May 1995), this segment's sales for the first nine months of 1995 increased 14% versus sales recorded during the comparable period of 1994. The operating margin of this segment improved from 5.6% in the first nine months to 6.4% in the first Page 12 of 16 nine months of 1995, largely as a result of nonrecurring severance and marketing costs incurred in 1994. The Patient Care segment recorded sales of $66,516,000 during the first nine months of 1995, an increase of 32% over the $50,417,000 recorded in the first nine months of 1994. As a result, the operating profit margin of this segment improved from 3.5% during the first nine months of 1994 to 5.0% during the first nine months of 1995, primarily as a result of branch openings during the latter part of 1994 and the first part of 1995. Income from operations increased from $18,597,000 in the first nine months of 1994 to $23,228,000 during the comparable period of 1995. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in the operating profit reported by National Sanitary Supply and Patient Care during the 1995 nine- month period. Additionally, this increase was aided by a lower level of nonrecurring expenses incurred in the 1995 period versus those recorded in 1994. Other income for the first nine months of 1995 totalled $15,151,000 as compared with $9,927,000 for the first nine months of 1994. The increase during the 1995 period was primarily attributable to larger gains on the sales of investments during the 1995 period, coupled with increased interest income in 1995. The Company's effective income tax rate increased from 37.1% during the first nine months of 1994 to 38.1% during the comparable period of 1995, primarily as a result of larger favorable tax adjustments in the 1994 period. Chemed's income from continuing operations increased from $10,875,000 ($1.10 per share) during the first nine months of 1994 to $16,398,000 ($1.66 per share) during the first nine months of 1995. Earnings for the periods included aftertax gains from sales of investments of $5,882,000, or $.59 per share, and $3,298,000, or $.33 per share, in 1995 and 1994, respectively. In addition, nonrecurring charges of $208,000 after income taxes and minority interest ($.02 per share) were recorded in 1995 and nonrecurring charges of $1,107,000 ($.11 per share) were recorded in 1994. Net income for the first nine months of 1995 totalled $19,141,000 ($1.94 per share) as compared with $18,788,000 ($1.91 per share) for the first nine months of 1994. Net income for the first nine months of 1995 and 1994 include favorable adjustments relative to discontinued operations amounting to $2,743,000 and $3,807,000, respectively. In addition, income from discontinued operations for the 1994 period included equity earnings from Omnicare Inc. and gains on the sale of Omnicare stock.
