1) NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION, GOING CONCERN AND SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Med Diversified, Inc. is a diversified healthcare company that provides
home healthcare and alternate site healthcare, skilled nursing, and pharmacy
management and distribution services to more than 126,000 patients in 29 states.
We provide all products and services through a national network of owned and
franchised locations.
On November 27, 2002 (the "Petition Date"), we and five of our
domestic, wholly owned subsidiaries, Chartwell Diversified Services, Inc.
("Chartwell"), Chartwell Community Services, Inc. ("CCS"), Chartwell Care
Givers, Inc. ("CCG"), Resource and Trestle Corporation ("Trestle")
(collectively, the "Med Debtors"), filed voluntary petitions in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy
Court") under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"). The reorganization cases are being jointly administered
under the caption "In re Med Diversified, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02 88564."
The Med Debtors continue to operate their businesses as debtors-in-possession,
subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy
Court while a plan of reorganization is formulated. As a debtor-in-possession,
we are authorized to operate our business, but may not engage in transactions
outside the ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy
Court.
On November 8, 2002, our wholly owned subsidiary, Tender Loving Care
Health Care Services, Inc. ("TLCS"), along with nineteen of TLCS' subsidiaries
(the "TLCS Debtors"; collectively, with the Med Debtors, the "Debtors"), filed
voluntary petitions in the Bankruptcy Court under the Bankruptcy Code. The TLCS
reorganization cases are being jointly administered under the caption "In re
Tender Loving Care Health Care Services, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02-88020."
TLCS continues to operate its business as a debtor-in-possession, subject to the
jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court while a
plan of reorganization is formulated. As a debtor-in-possession, TLCS is
authorized to operate its business, but may not engage in transactions outside
the ordinary course of business without the approval of the Bankruptcy Court.
TLCS has not needed to obtain any debtor-in-possession financing.
The Med and TLCS Debtors' bankruptcy proceedings are each being
separately administered by the Bankruptcy Court. The TLCS Debtors' operations
represented approximately 67.4% of our consolidated net sales for the quarter
ended June 30, 2003.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
rules and regulations. These condensed financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2003.
The condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of
management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly our financial position and the results of
operations. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the entire year.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of operations and
realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the
ordinary course of business. However, as a result of the Bankruptcy proceedings
and circumstances relating thereto, including our leveraged financial structure
and cumulative losses from operations, such realization of assets and settlement
of liabilities are subject to significant uncertainty. During the pendency of
the Bankruptcy proceedings, we may sell or otherwise dispose of assets and
liquidate or settle liabilities for amounts other than those reflected in the
consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, a plan or plans of
reorganization could materially change the amounts reported in the condensed
consolidated financial statements, which do not give effect to any adjustments
of the carrying value of assets or liabilities that might be necessary as a
consequence of a plan or plans of reorganization. Our ability to continue as a
going concern is dependent upon, among other things, confirmation of a plan or
plans of reorganization, future profitable operations, the ability to comply
with the terms of our financing agreements and the ability to generate
sufficient cash from operations and/or financing arrangements to meet its
obligations and capital asset expenditure requirements.
6
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have also
been presented in conformity with the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (the "AICPA") Statement of Position ("SOP") 90-7, FINANCIAL
REPORTING BY ENTITIES IN REORGANIZATION UNDER THE BANKRUPTCY CODE ("SOP 90-7").
The statement requires a segregation of liabilities subject to compromise by the
Bankruptcy Court as of the Petition Date and identification of all transactions
and events that are directly associated with our reorganization. Pursuant to SOP
90-7, pre-petition liabilities are reported on the basis of the expected amounts
of such allowed claims, as opposed to the amounts for which claims may be
settled. Under a confirmed final plan of reorganization, those claims may be
settled at amounts substantially less than their allowed amounts.
Our history of recurring operating losses, liquidity issues and the
bankruptcy proceedings raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as
a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern and the
appropriateness of using the going concern basis of accounting depends upon,
among other things, the ability to comply with the terms of the
debtor-in-possession financing arrangement with Sun Capital Healthcare, Inc.
("Sun Capital") confirmation of a plan of reorganization, success of future
operations after such confirmation and the ability to generate sufficient cash
from operations and financing sources to meet obligations.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies we followed in preparing our
financial statements are set forth in Note 2 to the financial statements
included in our Annual Report Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003. We
have made no changes to these policies during this quarter, except as noted
below.
In May 2003, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, we sold
certain assets and liabilities of Trestle, our wholly owned subsidiary, which
made up our Distance Medicine Business Segment. The results of the operations
of Trestle have been reported as discontinued operations in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, ACCOUNTING FOR
THE IMPAIRMENT OR DISPOSAL OF LONG LIVED ASSETS ("SFAS No. 144") (see Note
7). Unless otherwise indicated, amounts in the following notes exclude the
effect of discontinued operations.
Certain other reclassifications have also been made to amounts from
prior years to conform to the 2003 presentation.
BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE
In accordance with SFAS No. 128, COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE
("SFAS No. 128"), basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net
earnings available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per
share is computed by dividing the net earnings for the period by the weighted
average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the
period.
Common equivalent shares, consisting of incremental common shares
issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants, are excluded from the
diluted earnings per share calculation if their effect is anti-dilutive. A
summary of the shares used to compute the net income (loss) per share is as
follows (unaudited, in thousands):
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,

Effect of dilutive securities 1,134 --
-------- -------
Weighted average common shares used to compute diluted net income
(loss) per share 149,795 146,804
======= =======
As of June 30, 2003 and 2002, options and warrants to purchase
approximately 63.8 million and 56.4 million shares of common stock were
outstanding, respectively. The common stock equivalents that were
anti-dilutive were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share
for the three months ended June 30, 2002 as such options and warrants were
anti-dilutive. In accordance with SFAS No. 128, the Company has included
certain options and warrants to acquire shares in fully diluted earnings per
share because they are issuable for little or no cash consideration.
7
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
As allowed by SFAS No. 123, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
("SFAS No. 123"), we elected to account for stock-based compensation at
intrinsic value with disclosure of the effects of fair value accounting on
net loss and net loss per share on a pro forma basis. At June 30, 2003, we
had two stock incentive plans. We account for awards issued to employees
under the plan using the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting
Principles Board Opinion No. 25, ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES,
and related interpretations. No compensation expense has been recognized in
connection with its stock option plans, as all options granted under the plan
had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the
underlying common stock on the date of grant. The following table illustrates
the effect on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share had we
adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 (unaudited, in
thousands, except per share information):

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In April 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 149, AMENDMENT OF STATEMENT 133 ON DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING
ACTIVITIES ("SFAS No. 149"), which amends SFAS No. 133 for certain decisions
made by the FASB Derivatives Implementation Group. In particular, SFAS No. 149
(1) clarifies under what circumstances a contract with an initial net investment
meets the characteristic of a derivative, (2) clarifies when a derivative
contains a financing component, (3) amends the definition of an "underlying"
(which is a market value guarantee) to conform it to language used in FASB
Interpretation No. 45, GUARANTOR'S ACCOUNTING AND DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS FOR
GUARANTEES, INCLUDING INDIRECT GUARANTEES OF INDEBTEDNESS OF OTHERS and (4)
amends certain other existing pronouncements. This Statement is effective for
contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003, and for hedging
relationships designated after June 30, 2003. In addition, most provisions of
SFAS 149 are to be applied prospectively. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS
149 to have a material impact upon our financial position, results of operations
or cash flows.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, ACCOUNTING FOR CERTAIN
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH CHARACTERISTICS OF BOTH LIABILITIES AND EQUITY ("SFAS
No. 150"). This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and
measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities
and equity. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or
modified after May 31, 2003. This statement does not result in any material
change to our existing reporting.
2) PROCEEDINGS UNDER CHAPTER 11 OF THE BANKRUPTCY CODE
EVENTS LEADING TO BANKRUPTCY
As has been previously disclosed in our public filings, we had, up
until October 2002, been long dependent on National Century Financial
Enterprises, Inc. ("NCFE") to provide us financing for current operations under
various Sales and Subservicing Agreements. In or around October 2002, NCFE began
to suffer financial difficulties after an ongoing audit revealed financial
inaccuracies in NCFE's accounting. During the week of October 14, 2002, we
submitted receivables for sale to NCFE under the terms of the Sales and
Subservicing Agreements, but did not receive funding from NCFE for those sales.
NCFE never resumed funding after that point, resulting in a breach of their
obligations under the various Sales and Subservicing Agreements. Nevertheless,
through the end of October, NCFE continued to assure us that funding would
resume and we acted in reliance on those assurances. The resulting cash
shortages caused us to fail to meet certain vendor obligations when they became
due and caused us eventually to default on certain obligations to Private
Investment Bank, Ltd. ("PIBL").
NCFE continued to fail to meet its funding obligations, having a
materially adverse effect on our operations. This forced our subsidiary, TLCS,
to file for bankruptcy protection on November 8, 2002 in the Bankruptcy Court.
During this period, NCFE interpreted the terms of the Sales and Subservicing
Agreements to mean that it had a security interest in any accounts receivable of
ours, even if we had not submitted such accounts to NCFE for sale. We disagree
with this interpretation. We believe that, at most, NCFE had a security interest
in future accounts receivable only to the extent that we might have owed NCFE
servicing fees. NCFE's continued intransigence regarding this interpretation
inhibited our ability to arrange for alternate sources of financing, because few
lenders would be willing to finance us if they were unable to take an undisputed
first priority security interest in our accounts receivable. NCFE and certain of
its affiliates filed for bankruptcy protection on November 18, 2002 in the
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Ohio, Eastern
Division. In NCFE's Chapter 11 proceeding and in other venues prior to the
filing of
8
the NCFE bankruptcy, NCFE's counsel sought temporary restraining orders
restricting our ability to access cash held by NCFE and cash that we collected
on our own account. Because of immediate cash needs and in order to obtain the
ability to access necessary cash and move forward with a new financing partner,
the Med Debtors filed for bankruptcy on November 27, 2002.
REORGANIZATION
As noted previously, the Debtors are operating their businesses as
debtors-in-possession, subject to the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and
in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders
of the Bankruptcy Court while a plan of reorganization is formulated. As such,
the Debtors are authorized to operate their business, but may not engage in
transactions outside the ordinary course of business without the approval of the
Bankruptcy Court.
Soon after the Chapter 11 filings, the Debtors notified all known or
potential creditors, in an effort to identify and quantify all pre petition
claims against them (please note that the bar date for the filing of proofs of
claim of our creditors for each of the Med Debtors and TLCS Debtors has passed).
As a result of the Debtors' filings, substantially all of their indebtedness and
lease obligations went into technical default. The Chapter 11 filings, however,
automatically stayed or enjoined the continuation of any judicial or
administrative proceedings or other actions against the Debtors or their
property to recover on, collect or secure a claim arising prior to the Petition
Date, subject to certain exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code. For example,
those creditor actions that seek to obtain property, or those that seek to
create, perfect or enforce any lien against property of the Debtors, or those
that seek to exercise rights or remedies with respect to a pre-petition claim,
are enjoined. Such claims may proceed only if the Bankruptcy Court grants relief
from the automatic stay. Under the Bankruptcy Code, actions to collect pre
petition indebtedness, as well as most other pending litigation, are stayed and
other contractual obligations against the Debtors generally may not be enforced,
absent an order of the Bankruptcy Court.
At hearings held on December 2, 2002, December 9, 2002 and December 20,
2002 the Bankruptcy Court granted the Med Debtors' various motions to stabilize
their operations and business relationships with customers, vendors, employees
and others. The Court granted the Med Debtors authority to, among other things:
(a) pay certain pre-petition and post-petition employee wages, salaries,
benefits, and other employee obligations; (b) pay vendors and other providers in
the ordinary course of business for goods and services received from and after
the Petition Date, and other similar agreements. The Bankruptcy Court also gave
interim and final approval for use of cash collateral.
On November 12, 2002, the Bankruptcy Court granted TLCS the authority
to: (a) maintain and continue to use its existing bank accounts without
interruption and in the ordinary course of business; (b) continue to use
existing business forms, including checks and other documents; and (c) collect
and utilize cash collateral on an interim basis pending further hearings before
the Bankruptcy Court. Since November 12, 2002, TLCS has maintained the authority
to use cash collateral and continued to operate its business in the ordinary
course. TLCS has taken affirmative steps to stabilize its business and preserve
assets for the benefit of its creditors. Within its rights under the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, TLCS has eliminated certain unnecessary or
burdensome obligations under various leases and contracts.
DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION FINANCING
With regard to the Med Debtors, the Bankruptcy Court, by order dated
December 23, 2002, approved a Debtor-In-Possession Master Purchase and Sale
Agreement ("DIP Facility") between certain of our subsidiaries in bankruptcy,
including Chartwell, CCG, CCS and Resource and Sun Capital. This secured
debtor-in-possession financing arrangement was approved for the payment of
certain permitted pre-petition claims, working capital needs and other general
corporate purposes. It also provided a source of outside financing in order for
us to make up potential gaps in our cash flow during the course of our
bankruptcy.
Under the DIP Facility, certain of our subsidiaries can sell
accounts receivable to Sun Capital. After such sale, Sun Capital factors the
receivables and submits an advance to the subsidiary selling the receivable.
The advance is net of offsets based on a history of collections for the
receivable or receivables submitted and a contractually permitted reserve
amount. The receivables (in addition to other receivables not sold to Sun
Capital but forwarded to Sun Capital in order to provide adequate collateral)
then are sent to lockbox accounts controlled by Sun Capital. Sun Capital
collects the receivables and provides a reconciliation of them to show which
receivables have been collected and which have not. We pay at a daily
percentage rate of .075% for each day a factored receivable remains
uncollected, which is equivalent to an annual percentage rate of 27%. Any
non-factored receivables are maintained in a reserve account at Sun Capital
and are available as cash disbursements.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2003, CCG sold approximately $6.2
million worth of receivables to Sun Capital and received advances in the amount
of $4.9 million. Receivables sold in excess of advances are reported net of fees
in prepayments and other assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet in
our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.

DEVELOPMENT OF A PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
The Debtors are developing a plan of reorganization through
negotiations with their respective key creditor constituencies. A substantial
portion of all pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under such a
plan of reorganization to be voted upon by the Debtors' creditors, and subject
to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. No assurance can be given regarding the
timing of such a plan, the likelihood that such a plan will be developed, or the
terms on which such a plan may be conditioned.
Although the Debtors expect to file a reorganization plan that provides
emergence from Chapter 11 during 2003, there can be no assurances that a plan of
reorganization will be proposed by the Debtors, or approved by the requisite
creditors, or confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, or that any such plan will be
consummated.
The Med Debtors had the exclusive right to file a plan of
reorganization during the 120 days after the Petition Date until March 27, 2003.
We sought and received by order of the Bankruptcy Court, extensions to this
exclusivity period. We now have until September 30, 2003 to file the plan. Our
creditors have until October 31, 2003 to approve such plan. TLCS filed for two
extensions of the exclusivity period and the Bankruptcy Court approved such
extension until September 7, 2003.
A plan of reorganization is deemed accepted by holders of claims
against and equity interests in the Debtors if (i) at least one-half in number
and two-thirds in dollar amount of claims actually voting in each impaired class
of claims have voted to accept the plan; and (ii) at least two-thirds in amount
of equity interests actually voting in each impaired class of equity interests
have voted to accept the plan.
The Bankruptcy Court may confirm a plan of reorganization
notwithstanding the non-acceptance of the plan by an impaired class of creditors
or equity holders if certain requirements of the Bankruptcy Code are met. For
example, if a class of claims or equity interests does not receive or retain any
property under the plan, such claims or interests are deemed to have voted to
reject the plan. The precise requirements and evidentiary showing for confirming
a plan notwithstanding its rejection by one or more impaired classes of claims
or equity interests, depends upon a number of factors. Such factors include the
status and seniority of the claims or equity interest in the rejecting class
(i.e., secured claims or unsecured claims, subordinated or senior claims,
preferred or common stock). Generally, with respect to common stock interests, a
plan may be "crammed down" if the proponent of the plan demonstrates that (i)
the common stock holders are receiving the value of their common stock interests
or no class junior to the common stock is receiving or retaining property under
the plan and (ii) no class of claims or interests senior to the common stock is
being paid more than in full.
As required by the Bankruptcy Code, the United States Trustee has
appointed official committees of unsecured creditors for TLCS, the Company and
CCG (the "Official Committees"). The Official Committees, through their legal
representatives, have a right to be heard on all matters that come before the
Bankruptcy Court. There can be no assurances that the Official Committees will
support the Debtors' positions in the reorganization cases or the plan of
reorganization once proposed. Disagreements among the Debtors and the Official
Committees could protract the reorganization cases, negatively impacting the
Debtors' ability to operate during their Chapter 11 cases, thus, possibly
delaying the Debtors' emergence from Chapter 11.
On December 22, 2002, the TLCS Debtors filed, and on January 13,
2003, the Med Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court schedules and
statements of financial affairs setting forth, among other things, the assets
and liabilities of the Debtors, subject to the assumptions contained in
certain notes filed in connection therewith. Subsequent to the filing of the
schedules and statements of financial affairs, the Med Debtors filed several
amendments, setting forth potential creditors who were inadvertently omitted.
All of the schedules are subject to further amendment or modification, if
necessary. The initial deadline for filing proofs of claim against the Med
Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court was April 21, 2003, with limited exceptions
for governmental entities. The deadline for the additional creditors to file
claims against the Med Debtors, pursuant to the amended schedules, is set for
September 2, 2003. The deadline for filing proofs of claim against the TLCS
Debtors with the Bankruptcy Court was May 30, 2003, with limited exceptions
for governmental entities. Differences between amounts scheduled by the
Debtors and claims by creditors will be investigated and resolved in
connection with the claims resolution process. That process has commenced,
and in light of the number of the Debtors' creditors, may take considerable
time to complete. Accordingly, the ultimate number and amount of allowed
claims is not presently known and, because the settlement terms of such
allowed claims are subject to a confirmed plan of reorganization, the
ultimate distribution with respect to allowed claims cannot be presently
ascertained.
EFFECTS OF CHAPTER 11 ON OUR BUSINESS
The potential adverse publicity associated with the Chapter 11 filings
and the resulting uncertainty regarding our future may hinder our ongoing
business activities and our ability to operate, fund and execute our business
plan. Such potential negative publicity may impair relations with existing and
potential customers, negatively impact our ability to attract and retain key
employees, limit our ability to obtain trade credit and impair present and
future relationships with vendors and service providers.
As a result of the Chapter 11 filings, the realization of assets and
the liquidation of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as
debtors-in-possession under the protection of the Bankruptcy Code, and while
subject to Bankruptcy Court approval or
10
otherwise as permitted in the normal course of business, the Debtors may sell or
otherwise dispose of assets and liquidate or settle liabilities for amounts
other than those reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Further, a plan of reorganization could materially change the amounts and
classifications reported in the consolidated historical financial statements,
which do not give effect to any adjustments to the carrying value of assets or
amounts of liabilities that might be necessary as a consequence of confirmation
of a plan of reorganization.
Under the system of priorities of claim established by the Bankruptcy
Code, unless creditors agree otherwise, pre- and post-petition liabilities must
be satisfied in full before shareholders are entitled to receive any
distribution or retain any property under a plan. The ultimate recovery to
creditors and/or common shareholders, if any, will not be determined until
confirmation of a plan or plans of reorganization. No assurance can be given as
to what values, if any, will be ascribed in the Chapter 11 cases to each of
these constituencies, or what types or amounts of distributions, if any, they
will receive. A plan of reorganization could result in holders of our common
stock receiving no distribution on account of their interests and cancellation
of their existing stock. The value of the common stock is highly speculative. We
urge that appropriate caution be exercised with respect to existing and future
investments in our securities and the securities of the other Debtors.
REORGANIZATION EXPENSES
Reorganization expenses represent the net amounts we incurred as a
direct result of the Chapter 11 filing and are presented separately in the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. We incurred and will continue
to incur significant costs associated with the reorganization. The amount of
these costs, which are being expensed as incurred, are expected to significantly
and adversely affect our results of operations.
Reorganization expenses included in our Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2003 consist of
the following (unaudited, in thousands):
Professional services $ 1,638
Other reorganization costs 143
United States Trustee filing fees 55
-------
$ 1,836
=======
3) LIABILITIES SUBJECT TO COMPROMISE
"Liabilities subject to compromise" refers to liabilities incurred
prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 filings. These liabilities,
consisting primarily of related-party and long-term debt, certain accounts
payable and accrued liabilities, represent management's estimate of known or
potential pre-petition claims to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11
filings.
Under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may assume, assume and assign,
or reject executory contracts and unexpired leases, including leases of real and
personal property, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and certain
other conditions. Rejection constitutes a court-authorized breach of the lease
or contract in question and, subject to certain exceptions, relieves the Debtors
of their future obligations under such lease or contract, but creates a deemed
pre-petition claim for damages caused by such breach or rejection. Parties whose
contracts or leases are rejected may file claims against the rejecting Debtor
for damages. Generally, the assumption, or assumption and assignment, of an
executory contract or unexpired lease requires the Debtors to cure all prior
defaults under such executory contract or unexpired lease, including all
pre-petition arrearages, and to provide adequate assurance of future
performance. In this regard, we expect that liabilities subject to compromise
and resolution in the Chapter 11 case will arise in the future as a result of
claims for damages created by the Debtors' rejection of various executory
contracts and unexpired leases. Conversely, we would expect that the assumption,
or assumption and assignment, of certain executory contracts and unexpired
leases might convert liabilities shown as subject to compromise, into
liabilities not subject to compromise.
Under bankruptcy law, actions by creditors to collect indebtedness we
owed prior to the Petition Date are stayed and certain other pre-petition
contractual obligations may not be enforced against the Debtors. We have
received approval from the Court to pay certain pre-petition liabilities
including employee salaries and wages, benefits and other employee obligations.
Adjustments to the claims may result from negotiations, payments authorized by
Court order, additional rejection of executory contracts including leases or
other events.
Pursuant to an order of the Court, we mailed notices to all known
creditors that the deadline for filing proofs of claim with the Court was April
21, 2003 for the Med Debtors and May 30, 2003 for the TLCS Debtors. For the Med
Debtors, an estimated 647 claims were filed as of June 20, 2003 out of an
estimated 10,276 notices sent to constituents. For the TLCS Debtors, an
estimated
11
1,102 claims were filed as of May 30, 2003 out of an estimated 22,088 notices
sent to constituents. Amounts that we recorded are in many instances different
from amounts filed by our creditors. Differences between amounts scheduled by us
and claims by creditors are being investigated and resolved in connection with
our claims resolution process. Until the process is complete, the ultimate
number and amount of allowable claims cannot be ascertained. In this regard, it
should be noted that the claims reconciliation process may result in material
adjustments to current estimates of allowable claims. The ultimate resolution of
these claims will be based upon the final plan of reorganization.
The following table summarizes the components of liabilities subject
to compromise in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30,
2003 and March 31, 2003 (in thousands):

========= =========
Approximately $303.9 million and $296.2 million at June 30, 2003 and
March 31, 2003, respectively, would have been classified as current liabilities
if the Chapter 11 petitions had not been filed. Filing a petition generally
causes the payment of unsecured or undersecured liabilities to be prohibited
before the plan is confirmed. The Chapter 11 reorganization ending in
confirmation of a plan typically takes more than one year or one operating
cycle, if longer. Therefore, we classified all debt and liabilities subject to
compromise as long term.
In accordance with SOP 90-7, we discontinued accruing interest relating
to certain debt currently classified as liabilities subject to compromise
effective November 8, 2002 for the TLCS Debtors and November 27, 2002 for the
Med Debtors. Thus, contractual interest for the three months ended June 30, 2003
was $6.1 million, which is $4.5 million in excess of interest included in the
accompanying financial statements.
DIVESTITURE
The Bankruptcy Code provides a mechanism by which the Debtors may
abandon property if it is no longer beneficial to the estates and its retention
serves no purpose in effectuating the goals of the Bankruptcy Code. Abandonment
constitutes a court-authorized divestiture of all of the Debtors' interests in
the property. Abandonment gives rise to potential claims against the Debtors.
Due to the uncertain nature of many of the potential rejection and
abandonment related claims, management is unable to project the magnitude of
such claims with any degree of certainty at this time.
4) JOINT VENTURES AND MINORITY INTEREST
As a result of the Chartwell merger in August 2001, we have investments
in eight (8) joint ventures with various healthcare providers that provide home
care services, including high-tech infusion therapy, nursing, clinical
respiratory services and durable medical equipment to home care patients. We
also provide various management services for each of the joint ventures under
Administrative Service Agreements, which range for periods from one to five
years. Our ownership in the joint ventures includes: one with 80% interest,
which is consolidated, one with 45% interest and six with 50% interest, which we
account for on an equity basis.
12
Minority interest of $395 thousand and $377 thousand, respectively at June 30,
2003 and March 31, 2003, represents the outside ownership in our joint ventures.
A condensed balance sheet at June 30, 2003 and March 31, 2003 and a

equity method for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are as follows:

Due to the failure to make scheduled payments and the commencement of
the Chapter 11 proceedings, we are in default of substantially all of our
pre-petition debt and other long-term obligations. Under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code, actions against the Debtors to collect pre-petition
indebtedness are subject to an automatic stay provision. These debt obligations
at June 30, 2003 and March 31, 2003 are classified as liabilities subject to
compromise in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in
accordance with SOP 90-7.
7) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In June 2001, e-Net Technology, Ltd. ("e-Net") filed for receivership.
In accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Abstract No. 95-18,
ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING FOR A DISCONTINUED BUSINESS SEGMENT WHEN THE
MEASUREMENT DATE OCCURS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE BUT BEFORE THE ISSUANCE OF
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ("EITF 95-18"), we reflected the discontinued operations in
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. We estimated the net realizable value of
the assets of the discontinued operations and recorded a write down of $6.4
million in fiscal 2001.
In May 2003, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, we sold
certain assets and liabilities of Trestle, our wholly owned subsidiary, which
made up our Distance Medicine Solutions Business Segment, to Trestle
Acquisition Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Sunland Entertainment
Co., Inc. The transaction included the sale of all of Trestle's intellectual
property rights, certain operating assets plus the assumption of certain
liabilities totaling approximately $1.4 million. Cash proceeds from the sale
of $1.25 million will remain in escrow pending completion of our plan of
reorganization under the bankruptcy proceedings and is included as restricted
cash in assets of discontinued operations of the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet at June 30, 2003. In accordance with SFAS No. 144, the results
of operations have been reported as discontinued operations.
The net sales, expenses, assets and liabilities of our wholly owned
subsidiaries, Trestle and e-Net, have been combined in our condensed
consolidated financial statements under discontinued operations. The following
is a condensed statement of operations for Trestle and e-Net for the three
months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, which comprises the results from

8) SEGMENT INFORMATION
We derive our net sales from two operating segments: (1) Home health
services comprised of skilled nursing care and attendant care services in the
home and (2) Pharmacy services comprised of pharmaceutical management and
distribution services.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described
in the summary of significant accounting policies, which are contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003, except as noted
below.
In May 2003, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, we sold
certain assets and liabilities of Trestle, our wholly owned subsidiary, which
made up our Distance Medicine Business Segment. The results of operations of
Trestle have been reported as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS
No. 144 (see Note 7).
We evaluate performance based on operating earnings of our respective
business segments; as such, there is no separately identifiable statement of
operations data below operating loss.
Our financial information by business segment is summarized as
follows (unaudited, in thousands). The "Other" column includes corporate
related items and other expenses not allocated to reportable segments. No
amounts from our Distance Medicine Business Segment are included in this
column (unaudited, in thousands):

commercial insurance companies, as well as directly from institutions and
patients.
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, approximately 83.3% of the
sales from these segments were reimbursable by Medicare and Medicaid.
9) CONTINGENCIES AND LEGAL MATTERS
As discussed in greater detail in Part I, Note 2 above, on the
Petition Date, we and five of our domestic, wholly owned subsidiaries,
Chartwell, CCS, CCG, Resource and Trestle, filed voluntary petitions in the
Bankruptcy Court under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The reorganization
cases are being jointly administered under the caption "In re Med
Diversified, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02-88564." On November 8, 2002, TLCS
along with nineteen of TLCS' subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions in the
Bankruptcy Court under the Bankruptcy Code. The reorganization cases are
being jointly administered under the caption "In re Tender Loving Care Health
Care Services, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02-88020." All of the entities
continue to operate their businesses as debtors-in-possession, subject to the
jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court, while a
plan of reorganization is formulated. At this time, it is not possible to
predict the outcome of the Chapter 11 cases or their effect on our business.
In connection with our filing for bankruptcy protection, all of the
litigation noted below, if it was not settled prior to the filing for
bankruptcy, has been automatically stayed under bankruptcy law, meaning, where
we are a defendant, that no adverse party may take any action in the context of
such litigation unless such party obtains relief from the automatic stay. Where
we are the plaintiff, we may pursue such litigation at our option. Except as
described below, none of such pending litigation, in our opinion, could have a
material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of
operations or businesses.
16
We are subject to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations
covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of our
business activities. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties,
and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to us.
We have established accruals for matters that are probable and reasonably
estimable. Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result
from the resolution of these matters in excess of amounts provided will not have
a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or
cash flows. We, and certain related parties, have been and continue to be
involved in litigation regarding certain of our acquisitions and strategic
relationships, material and non-material. Where we are a party to such material
litigation, a description of such litigation is set forth below.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2003, we reported on our pending legal proceedings. The following section
updates that disclosure to the extent that developments in those proceedings
have occurred since our Annual Report.
ASHE WAHBA
On April 17, 2002, Ashe Wahba ("Wahba") filed a demand for arbitration
with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") against the Company (AAA No.
11 160 01346 2). Prior to his termination in April 2002, Wahba served as
Chartwell's President of International Business. Wahba alleges that we breached
the severance and signing compensation provisions of his Executive Employment
Agreement (the "Employment Agreement"), dated August 18, 2001. The Employment
Agreement called for arbitration for disagreements arising out of or relating to
the Employment Agreement. Wahba seeks an award of salary compensation,
compensation for stock options, attorneys' fees and administrative costs. Though
we have taken part in settlement discussions with Wahba, no settlement has been
reached. We continue to disagree with Wahba's interpretation of the Employment
Agreement.
Due to our filing for bankruptcy protection, this matter was subject to
the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code. However, on February 4, 2003,
Wahba filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to modify the stay and allow the
arbitration to proceed. The Bankruptcy Court granted such motion. Therefore,
this matter will proceed in arbitration. Any award, however, will merely
liquidate the amount of Wahba's claim, which will remain subject to the
automatic stay and whatever treatment ultimately will be afforded the unsecured
creditors under our plan of reorganization.
A conference regarding potential settlement of this matter was held
on August 15, 2003. The parties agreed to have another conference in the near
future.
ADDUS HEALTHCARE
On or about April 24, 2002, we filed a complaint against Addus
Healthcare, Inc. ("Addus"), and its major shareholders, W. Andrew Wright, Mark
S. Heaney, Courtney E. Panzer, and James A. Wright (Med Diversified, Inc. v.
Addus Healthcare, Inc., et al., U.S. District Court, Central District of
California, Case No. CV 02-3911 AHM (JTLX)). We contend that Addus has been
unable to perform its obligations under a certain stock purchase agreement
relating to our acquisition of Addus. We allege that Addus breached the
warranties and representations it gave regarding its financial condition, and
Addus has been unable to obtain the consent of necessary third parties to assign
some relevant contracts. We believe that Addus has breached the agreement in
other ways, as well. Additionally, we allege that the Defendants have
misappropriated our deposit.
The complaint demands the imposition of a constructive trust for the
converted funds and an injunction against the Defendants' disposing of or
liquidating the $7.5 million deposit. Our complaint further alleges fraud on
behalf of the Defendants, stating that they never intended to complete the
transaction but planned to use the pendency of the transaction to obtain
concessions from us. Additionally, there is a claim for breach of contract. We
seek compensatory damages of approximately $10 million per claim, plus punitive
damages, along with the equitable relief previously described and attorneys'
fees.
Addus has filed a counterclaim against us, alleging that we (1)
fraudulently induced them to enter into the agreement, (2) negligently
misrepresented certain aspects of our business, (3) breached the terms of the
agreement by not closing the transaction and not having available funds to close
the transaction, and (4) breached certain other confidentiality agreements.
Addus has sought compensatory damages in excess of $4 million, a declaratory
judgment that it is entitled to retain the $7.5 million deposit, for general and
special damages. We dispute these claims vigorously and believe they are without
merit. On July 9, 2002, we filed a reply to the counterclaim. This matter has
been transferred to the Northern District of Illinois. On October 11, 2002, we
filed an Amended Complaint. We received Addus' answer to that complaint. A
status conference was held on July 25, 2003. We intend to continue pursuing this
litigation.
UNIVERSITY AFFILIATES
In January 2002, we filed a Complaint against University Affiliates IPA
("UAIPA") and its president, Sam Romeo, who at the time was also a member of our
board of directors, for breach of contract, fraud and, as to Mr. Romeo, breach
of fiduciary duty arising
17
out of a May 2, 2000 agreement between UAIPA and us (Med Diversified, Inc. v.
University Affiliates IPA a/k/a Univ. Affiliates Med Grp.; Sam J.W. Romeo,
M.D. a/k/a Sam Romeo; Doe Defendants, Superior Court of the State of
California, County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC 266500). Under the agreement,
during the quarter ended June 2000, we advanced $2 million to UAIPA for the
purpose of creating a joint venture intended to combine UAIPA's supposed
healthcare management expertise with Internet healthcare management systems
in an effort to develop new business opportunities. As of the filing of the
suit, the companies had not proceeded with the joint venture. According to
the original agreement, if a formal joint venture agreement were not entered
into between UAIPA and us by July 1, 2000, UAIPA would guarantee payment of
$2.5 million to us on or before July 1, 2001. The $2.5 million has not been
paid. We seek payment of this amount, plus any profits from the business
opportunities that were to be transferred to the joint venture, and punitive
damages.
On March 4, 2002, UAIPA served a cross-complaint against us, Sanga
E-Health, LLC, TSI Technologies, LLC, Mitchell Stein and John F. Andrews
("Andrews"), alleging breach of various contracts, breach of the implied
covenant of good faith and fair dealing, declaratory relief, promissory
estoppel, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit,
conversion, money had and received, breach of fiduciary duty, interference with
prospective business advantage and unfair business practices, seeking damages in
the aggregate of approximately $11 million plus punitive damages. The court
denied our motion to compel arbitration on May 8, 2002. We subsequently filed a
cross-complaint against UAIPA and Sam Romeo regarding their failure to adhere to
the May 2, 2000 agreement. No trial date has been set and UAIPA is currently in
bankruptcy proceedings.
Due to our filing for bankruptcy protection and UAIPA's bankruptcy
proceedings, this matter was subject to the automatic stay in both cases. On
June 16, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order settling this
litigation without payment by any party.
NATIONAL CENTURY FINANCIAL ENTERPRISES, INC., NATIONAL PREMIER FINANCIAL
SERVICES, INC., NPF VI, INC., NPF X, INC., NPF XII, INC., NPF CAPITAL, INC.
On May 30, 2003, we, along with Chartwell, CCG, CCS, and Resource,
filed a lawsuit against NCFE and five legal designees of NCFE in the Bankruptcy
Court (Med Diversified, Inc.; Chartwell Diversified Services, Inc.; Chartwell
Care Givers, Inc.; Chartwell Community Services, Inc.; and Resource Pharmacy,
Inc. v. National Century Financial Enterprises Inc.; National Premier Financial
Services, Inc.; NPF, VI, Inc.; NPF X, Inc.; NPF XII, Inc.; NPF Capital, Inc.,
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York, Adversary
Proceeding No. 1-03-01320). We contend that the defendants engaged in a course
of conduct, whereby they fraudulently promised attractive returns to investors.
We believe that the defendants diverted investments and concealed the scheme by
fraudulently manipulating the use of new investments. We believe that the
defendants used us as an instrumentality to further this fraudulent conduct,
harming our estates. We also bring causes of action under theories of unjust
enrichment and fraud.
There are certain claims against us arising from transfers of funds
from the Defendants to us, including the Defendants' purported secured and
unsecured loans, purchases of receivables and other advances. We seek to
recharacterize these claims as equity interests, and to the extent that such
claims are recharacterized as equity interests, we seek to subordinate those
interests to those of the other equity holders. Further, we seek the turnover of
overfunded reserves and accrued subservicing fees by certain of the Defendants
and recovery for breach of certain sales and subservicing agreements between the
Defendants and us. We also seek recovery for the Defendants' breach of
commitments in connection with a bond initiative sponsored by PIBL, as well as
breach of the preferred provider agreement, entered into between NCFE and us in
February 2000. We also seek recovery of fraudulent transfers.
The defendants' answer on responsive pleadings was due on August 8,
2003 and was filed on such date. This adversary proceeding is in its initial
stages, with a pretrial conference set before the Bankruptcy Court on August 15,
2003.
STEPHEN SAVITSKY, DAVID SAVITSKY, DALE R. CLIFT
On May 16, 2003 we, along with TLCS, filed a lawsuit against Stephen
Savitsky ("S. Savitsky"), David Savitsky ("D. Savitsky"), and Dale R. Clift
("Clift") in the Bankruptcy Court (Med Diversified, Inc.; Tender Loving Care
Health Care Services, Inc. v. Stephen Savitsky; David Savitsky; Dale R. Clift,
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York, Adversary
Proceeding No. 03-8244). Up until October 28, 2002, S. Savitsky served as Chief
Executive Officer of TLCS. From October 28, 2002 until his resignation on
November 6, 2002, S. Savitsky served as Executive Vice President of TLCS. Up
until or shortly after October 28, 2002, D. Savitsky served as Vice Chairman of
Governmental Affairs for TLCS. Up until February 27, 2002, Clift served as
President and Chief Operating Officer of TLCS.
We and TLCS made certain transfers and conveyances to S. Savitsky, D.
Savitsky and Clift during the course of their employment with TLCS. We and TLCS
seek to avoid and recover those transfers as preferential payments under the
Bankruptcy Code. We and TLCS also seek to avoid and recover those funds under
the theories of fraudulent transfers, fraudulent conveyances, and unjust
enrichment.
18
The defendants' answers were due on June 30, 2003 and were filed on
such date. Discovery is proceeding in this matter.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Part I, Item 2 of this report should be read in conjunction with Part
II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2003.
Statements in this quarterly report that relate to management's
expectations, intentions or beliefs concerning future plans, expectations,
events and performance are "forward-looking" within the meaning of the federal
securities laws. Forward looking statements do not relate strictly to historical
or current facts and may be identified by their use of words like "plan",
"believe", "expect", "will", "anticipate", "estimate" and other words of similar
meaning. These forward-looking statements include assumptions, beliefs and
opinions relating to our business and growth strategy based upon management's
interpretation and analysis of its own contractual and legal rights, of
management's ability to satisfy industry and consumer needs with its strategies,
and of healthcare industry trends. Management's forward-looking statements
further assume that we will be able to successfully develop and execute on our
strategic relationships and obtain approval for a plan of reorganization under
the terms of the Bankruptcy Code. Actual results or events could differ
materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to a
variety of factors, in addition to those set out above, including, without
limitation, acceptance by customers of our products, changing technology,
competition in the health-care market, government regulation of health care,
general economic conditions, availability of capital, the outcome of pending
litigation, our ability to successfully reorganize under the Bankruptcy Code and
other factors. Investors should not rely on forward
22
looking statements because they are subject to a variety of risks,
uncertainties, and other factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from our expectations. Some important factors that could cause our
actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking
statements are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
March 31, 2003.

============ ========== ========== =========
As noted above, Chartwell's income from operations under management for
the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 totaled $1.6 million and $906
thousand, respectively.
* Chartwell's ownership in the joint ventures ranges from 45% to 50%. As a
result of the Chartwell merger, we have investments in eight joint ventures with
various health care providers that provide home care services, including
high-tech infusion therapy, nursing, clinical respiratory services and durable
medical equipment to home care patients. Our ownership in the joint ventures
includes: one with 80 percent interest which is consolidated, one with 45
percent interest and six with 50 percent interest accounted for on the equity
basis of accounting. Total Chartwell revenue under management for the three
months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, which includes unconsolidated joint
ventures as well as Chartwell subsidiary revenue, was $43.8 million and $43.4
million, respectively.
NET SALES
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are
summarized as follows (unaudited, in thousands):
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
SEGMENT 2003 2002
------- ---------------------------
Home Health/Alternate Site Services $ 71,502 $ 83,656
Pharmacy Management and Distribution 12,641 14,154
--------- ----------
Total $ 84,143 $ 97,810
========= ==========
Home Health/Alternate Site Services revenues decreased from $83.7
million to $71.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2003 over the
comparable prior year a decrease of $12.2 million, or 14.5%. This decrease
consists of a reduction in revenue of $6.0 million resulting from the sale or
closure of 14 locations from our TLCS subsidiary and approximately $6.1 million
primarily from changes in payor mix, particularly at TLCS. All operations in the
Home Health/Alternative Site Services segment have taken steps to reduce
business with low margin payor sources and concurrently expand services to
Medicare eligible patients, for whom we have clinical platforms that are cost
effective and generate improved gross margins.
Pharmacy Management and Distribution revenues decreased $1.5 million or
10.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002. This decrease is due
primarily to the Company's reductions in referrals and focus on higher-margin
therapies. The Company has and continues to take steps to reduce business from
low-margin referral sources and expand its services to referral sources with
higher-margin therapies.

COSTS AND EXPENSES
Cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002 are
summarized as follows (unaudited, in thousands):

SEGMENT 2003 2002
------- -----------------------------
Home Health/Alternate Site Services.... $ 39,069 $ 46,266
Pharmacy Management and Distribution... 7,657 8,698

Total.................................. $ 46,726 $ 54,964
======== ========
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales for the three months ended June
30, 2003 and 2002 are summarized as follows:
SEGMENT 2003 2002
------- ----------------------------
Home Health/Alternate Site Services........... 54.6% 55.3%
Pharmacy Management and Distribution.......... 60.6% 61.5%
Both Home Health/Alternate Site Services and Pharmacy Management and
Distribution cost of sales decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2003 as
compared to the same periods in 2002 because of reduced sales. The reduction in
cost of sales as a percentage of sales reflects the previously mentioned focus
on payor and therapy mix.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased $10.4
million or 23.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2003 as compared to the
comparable period in 2002. The decrease is attributed to the full impact of
certain cost reduction programs implemented in 2002, especially at our TLCS
subsidiary, which included the sale or closure of fourteen locations,
reduction in personnel and related costs in its operating locations, regional
support and corporate office. Additionally, a decrease in expense of $3.4
million related to executive non-cash compensation and a reduction in
professional fees (classified as SG&A expenses) favorably impacted SG&A
expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2003.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)
Interest expense decreased $11.2 million, from $12.8 million to $1.6
million, for the three months ended June 30, 2003. As compared to the comparable
period in 2002, it was an 87.9% reduction. The decrease is attributed primarily
to the reduction of $5.9 million in deferred financing fees from 2002 and the
discontinued accruing of $4.5 million of interest related to certain unsecured
debt, as prescribed by SOP 90-7.
RESULTS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In May 2003, with the approval of the Bankruptcy Court, we sold
certain assets and liabilities of Trestle Corporation ("Trestle"), our wholly
owned subsidiary, which made up our Distance Medicine Solutions Business
Segment, to Trestle Acquisition Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of
Sunland Entertainment Co., Inc. The transaction included the sale of all of
Trestle's intellectual property rights, certain operating assets plus the
assumption of certain liabilities totaling approximately $368 thousand.
Proceeds from the sale of $1.25 million will remain in escrow pending
completion of our plan of reorganization under the bankruptcy proceedings and
is included as restricted cash in assets of discontinued operations of the
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2003. In accordance with
SFAS No. 144, the results of operations have been reported as discontinued
operations.
In June 2001, e-Net Technology, Ltd. ("e-Net") filed for receivership.
In accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Abstract No. 95-18,
ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING FOR A DISCONTINUED BUSINESS SEGMENT WHEN THE
MEASUREMENT DATE OCCURS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE BUT BEFORE THE ISSUANCE OF
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ("EITF 95-18"), we reflected the discontinued operations in
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. We estimated the net realizable value of
the assets of the discontinued operations and recorded a write down of $6.4
million in fiscal 2001.
For further information regarding our discontinued operations,
please see Part I, Note 7 of this quarterly report.
24
LIQUIDITY
There are significant uncertainties about our ability to continue as a
going concern. We have incurred accumulated losses of $682.9 million since our
inception, including $417.3 million of goodwill and asset impairment charges.
While we have reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2003,
there are no guarantees that we will be profitable in the future.
In addition, we have consistently had negative working capital and cash
flow from continuing operations, and lower than anticipated levels of cash
($13.7 million and $10.1 million of cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2003
and March 31, 2003, respectively).
We have consistently used cash in operations, including cash used in
operating activities of $21.3 million in the fiscal year ended March 31,
2003. However, during the three months ended June 30, 2003, cash provided by
operating activities approximated $1.8 million, primarily due to the net
income for the period and non cash charges, such as bad debt expenses of $1.6
million, non cash compensation and expenses of $47 thousand and by
depreciation and amortization expense of $1.4 million. During the three
months ended June 30, 2002, cash used in operating activities of $14 million
was primarily due to the net loss from the period of $16.2 million and the
cash used by the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $10
million.
We are authorized under the Bankruptcy Code to act as a
debtor-in-possession during the course of the bankruptcy case. Being a
debtor-in-possession means that current management, the board of directors and
the shareholders remain in place during the pendency of the case or until such
time as an examiner or trustee is appointed. No trustee or examiner has been
appointed in our case, although it is possible that one might be appointed at a
future time.
In connection with being a debtor-in-possession, we obtained financing
from Sun Capital. By order of the bankruptcy court dated December 23, 2002, Sun
Capital has been approved to act as our source for outside financing in order
for us to make up potential gaps in our cash flow during the course of our
bankruptcy. For the quarter ended June 30, 2003, CCG has sold approximately $6.2
million worth of receivables to Sun Capital and has received advances in the
amount of $4.9 million. Receivables sold in excess of advances are reported net
of fees in prepayments and other assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2003.
During the three months ended June 30, 2003 and 2002, cash provided
in investing activities of $2.6 million and $1 million, respectively, was
primarily from distributions from our joint ventures.
During the three months ended June 30, 2003, we repaid cash from
financing activities of approximately $807 thousand, primarily due to net
payments from credit facilities. During the three months ended June 30, 2002, we
used cash of $15.4 million in financing activities primarily due to borrowings
from credit facilities.
The following represents a summary of our estimated contractual
obligations and commercial commitments:

========= ========= ======= ======= ====
Due to the failure to make scheduled payments and the commencement of
Chapter 11 proceedings, we are in default of substantially all of our
pre-petition debt and other long-term obligations. Under Chapter 11 of the
Bankruptcy Code, actions against the Debtors to collect pre-petition
indebtedness are subject to an automatic stay provision. These debt obligations
at March 31, 2003 and June 30, 2003 are classified as liabilities subject to
compromise in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets in
accordance with SOP 90-7.
Letters of Credit are purchased guarantees that ensure our performance
or payment to third parties in accordance with specified terms and conditions.
The following table presents our letters of credit for amounts committed but not
drawn-down. These instruments may exist or expire without being drawn-down.
Therefore, the amounts committed but not drawn-down, do not necessarily
represent future cash flows.

On August 12, 2000, our board of directors approved the repurchase
in the open market of up to 2 million shares of our common stock over an
eighteen-month period. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2002, 273
thousand shares were acquired for approximately $429 thousand and during the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2001, 187 thousand shares were acquired for
approximately $937 thousand. No subsequent repurchases have been made and
none are currently contemplated.
On August 18, 2001, we entered into two offshore financing
agreements with Societe Financiere du Seujet, Limited ("SFSL"), a
Securities/Purchase Agreement and a Debenture and Equity Agreement, providing
for up to $83 million financing and $54 million in debenture financing,
respectively. No funding was provided under either of those agreements. In
August 2002, in conjunction with the Company's $70 million debenture
refinancing, these agreements were terminated.
DEBENTURES
In addition to the above-mentioned agreements with SFSL, we entered
into a series of ten short form convertible debentures, dated September 5, 2001
(some of which were amended as of September 10, 2001), with SFSL and its
affiliate, Sangate. On October 1, 2001, a total of $40 million, less a
commission of $3.7 million, was funded and 13.2 million shares of our common
stock were pledged and were issuable as collateral of these debentures. The
funds were raised principally to fund the planned acquisition of TLCS. In
December 2001, these debentures were paid off with the proceeds of new
debentures and the pledged shares were released and repledged to holders of the
new debentures.
On December 28, 2001, debentures 1 and 2 were funded for a total of $40
million and the aggregate amount of 13.2 million shares were pledged to PIBL as
collateral for the repayment of debentures 1 and 2. The proceeds of debentures 1
and 2 were used to retire certain of our outstanding debentures with SFSL with a
maturity date of December 20, 2001. On December 28, 2001, debentures 3, 4 and 5
were funded for a total of $30 million. In connection with funding of debentures
3, 4 and 5, we entered into a Commission Agreement pursuant to which, as
consideration for arranging for the financing, we provided SFSL with a
commission of $2.7 million, 3 million shares of our common stock and a warrant
to purchase an additional 2 million shares of our common stock at a purchase
price of $4.20 per share. Additionally, 10 million shares of our common stock
were pledged to SFSL as collateral for the January 4, 2002 funding and SFSL has
the right to purchase bondholder position rights of the 10 million shares at
$3.00 per share.
In August 2002, we reached an agreement to refinance the $70 million of
original debentures issued by Private Investment Bank, Limited ("PIBL") held by
the holders of our outstanding debentures (the "Debenture Holders"). Pursuant to
the agreement entered into with PIBL, as agent for the Debenture Holders, we
issued five new amended debentures with a total principal balance of $57.5
million. The new debentures mature on June 28, 2004 unless there is an event of
default that would cause acceleration of the amount due. The original
debentures, which totaled $70 million and were due on June 28, 2002, have been
cancelled. The reduced total of the new debentures reflects the $12.5 million of
principal represented by a contractually subordinated debenture that was
purchased by TEGCO Investments, LLC ("TegCo"). The new agreement is subject to
standard terms and conditions including a schedule of payment obligations and
the grant security interests in our assets. Also refer to our Form 8-K, dated
August 19, 2002, reported under Item 5 the refinance of $70 million debentures
held by PIBL. Due to our filing for bankruptcy protection, we are technically in
default under these agreements.
On June 9, 2003, Chartwell Home Therapies, L.P. ("CHT") and Chartwell
Management Company, Inc. ("CMC") entered into a Proceeds Distribution Agreement
with PIBL. Under the terms of this agreement, CHT has agreed to split proceeds
with PIBL from cash distributions from joint ventures owned by CHT. CHT and CMC
have also granted to PIBL a security interest in all such proceeds and on
substantially all of the assets of CHT and CMC. PIBL has agreed to remove
permanently certain liens it placed on the joint ventures. The obligations to
split proceeds from distributions terminate at the time when a reorganization
plan is confirmed in our Bankruptcy Case.
Going forward, our principal focus will be to generate positive cash
flow from our continuing operations primarily from our business units. We plan
to continue to eliminate redundancies at all staff levels and locations
consistent with this objective.
In order for us to continue our operations, we must be successful in
obtaining additional funding by 1) maintaining our arrangement with Sun Capital
as our source for debtor-in-possession financing; 2) successfully managing the
reorganization of the TLCS and Med Debtors; and 3) preparing, filing and
obtaining approval of plans of reorganization for the Med Debtors.
Other factors, including those risk factors identified in our Form 10-K
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003, adversely affect our ability to obtain
additional funding.
Our independent auditors stated in their "Report of Independent
Accountants" on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years
ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 that there is substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern.
We may be unable to raise any additional amounts on reasonable terms,
or at all, when needed. If we are unable to raise such additional funding, we
would have to curtail operations, which in turn would have an adverse effect on
our financial position and results of operations and our ability to operate.
CAPITAL EXPENDITURES
There were no material commitments for capital expenditures during the
quarter ended June 30, 2003, and no material commitments are anticipated in the
near future.
26
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
MARKET/PRICE RISK
We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business
operations. We face competition and must offer our products and services at
prices the market will bear. Management believes that we are well positioned
with our mix of products and services to take advantage of future price
increases for these products and services. However, should the prices for our
products or services decline, this could adversely affect our future
profitability and competitiveness.
INTEREST RATE RISK
Our debt portfolio as of June 30, 2003 is composed entirely of fixed
and variable rate debt denominated in United States currency. Changes in
interest rates have different impacts on the fixed and variable rate portions of
our debt portfolio. A change in interest rate on the variable portion of the
debt portfolio impacts the interest incurred and cash flows but does not impact
the net financial instrument position. If interest rates significantly increase,
we could incur additional interest expenses, which would negatively affect its
cash flow and future profitability.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to provide
reasonable assurance as to the reliability of the financial statements and
other disclosures included in this report, as well as to safeguard assets
from unauthorized use or disposition. We evaluated the effectiveness of the
design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in
Exchange Act Rule 13a-14 under supervision and with the participation of
management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer
and Chief Accounting Officer, within 90 days of filing this report. Based
upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer
and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information
required to be included in our periodic Securities and Exchange Commission
filings. No significant changes were made to our internal controls or other
factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date
of their evaluation. The design of any future system of controls and
procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in
achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions regardless
of how remote.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
As discussed in greater detail in Part I, Note 2 above, on the
Petition Date, we and five of our domestic, wholly owned subsidiaries,
Chartwell, CCS, CCG, Resource and Trestle, filed voluntary petitions in the
Bankruptcy Court under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The reorganization
cases are being jointly administered under the caption "In re Med
Diversified, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02-88564." On November 8, 2002, TLCS
along with nineteen of TLCS' subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions in the
Bankruptcy Court under the Bankruptcy Code. The reorganization cases are
being jointly administered under the caption "In re Tender Loving Care Health
Care Services, Inc., et al., Case No. 8-02-88020." All of the entities
continue to operate their businesses as debtors-in-possession, subject to the
jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court, while a
plan of reorganization is formulated. At this time, it is not possible to
predict the outcome of the Chapter 11 cases or their effect on our business.
In connection with our filing for bankruptcy protection, all of the
litigation noted below, if it was not settled prior to the filing for
bankruptcy, has been automatically stayed under bankruptcy law, meaning, where
we are a defendant, that no adverse party may take any action in the context of
such litigation unless such party obtains relief from the automatic stay. Where
we are the plaintiff, we may pursue such litigation at our option. Except as
described below, none of such pending litigation, in our opinion, could have a
material adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of
operations or businesses.
We are subject to various claims, legal proceedings and investigations
covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of our
business activities. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties,
and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably to us.
We have established accruals for matters that are probable and reasonably
estimable.
27
Management believes that any liability that may ultimately result from the
resolution of these matters in excess of amounts provided will not have a
material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash
flows. We, and certain related parties, have been and continue to be involved in
litigation regarding certain of our acquisitions and strategic relationships,
material and non-material. Where we are a party to such material litigation, a
description of such litigation is set forth below.
In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2003, we reported on our pending legal proceedings. The following section
updates that disclosure to the extent that developments in those proceedings
have occurred since our Annual Report.
ASHE WAHBA
On April 17, 2002, Ashe Wahba ("Wahba") filed a demand for arbitration
with the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") against the Company (AAA No.
11 160 01346 2). Prior to his termination in April 2002, Wahba served as
Chartwell's President of International Business. Wahba alleges that we breached
the severance and signing compensation provisions of his Executive Employment
Agreement (the "Employment Agreement"), dated August 18, 2001. The Employment
Agreement called for arbitration for disagreements arising out of or relating to
the Employment Agreement. Wahba seeks an award of salary compensation,
compensation for stock options, attorneys' fees and administrative costs. Though
we have taken part in settlement discussions with Wahba, no settlement has been
reached. We continue to disagree with Wahba's interpretation of the Employment
Agreement.
Due to our filing for bankruptcy protection, this matter was subject to
the automatic stay under the Bankruptcy Code. However, on February 4, 2003,
Wahba filed a motion with the Bankruptcy Court to modify the stay and allow the
arbitration to proceed. The Bankruptcy Court granted such motion. Therefore,
this matter will proceed in arbitration. Any award, however, will merely
liquidate the amount of Wahba's claim, which will remain subject to the
automatic stay and whatever treatment ultimately will be afforded the unsecured
creditors under our plan of reorganization.
A conference regarding potential settlement of this matter was held
on August 15, 2003. The parties agreed to have another conference in the near
future.
ADDUS HEALTHCARE
On or about April 24, 2002, we filed a complaint against Addus
Healthcare, Inc. ("Addus"), and its major shareholders, W. Andrew Wright, Mark
S. Heaney, Courtney E. Panzer, and James A. Wright (Med Diversified, Inc. v.
Addus Healthcare, Inc., et al., U.S. District Court, Central District of
California, Case No. CV 02-3911 AHM (JTLX)). We contend that Addus has been
unable to perform its obligations under a certain stock purchase agreement
relating to our acquisition of Addus. We allege that Addus breached the
warranties and representations it gave regarding its financial condition, and
Addus has been unable to obtain the consent of necessary third parties to assign
some relevant contracts. We believe that Addus has breached the agreement in
other ways, as well. Additionally, we allege that the Defendants have
misappropriated our deposit.
The complaint demands the imposition of a constructive trust for the
converted funds and an injunction against the Defendants' disposing of or
liquidating the $7.5 million deposit. Our complaint further alleges fraud on
behalf of the Defendants, stating that they never intended to complete the
transaction but planned to use the pendency of the transaction to obtain
concessions from us. Additionally, there is a claim for breach of contract. We
seek compensatory damages of approximately $10 million per claim, plus punitive
damages, along with the equitable relief previously described and attorneys'
fees.
Addus has filed a counterclaim against us, alleging that we (1)
fraudulently induced them to enter into the agreement, (2) negligently
misrepresented certain aspects of our business, (3) breached the terms of the
agreement by not closing the transaction and not having available funds to close
the transaction, and (4) breached certain other confidentiality agreements.
Addus has sought compensatory damages in excess of $4 million, a declaratory
judgment that it is entitled to retain the $7.5 million deposit, for general and
special damages. We dispute these claims vigorously and believe they are without
merit. On July 9, 2002, we filed a reply to the counterclaim. This matter has
been transferred to the Northern District of Illinois. On October 11, 2002, we
filed an Amended Complaint. We received Addus' answer to that complaint. A
status conference was held on July 25, 2003. We intend to continue pursuing this
litigation.
UNIVERSITY AFFILIATES
In January 2002, we filed a Complaint against University Affiliates IPA
("UAIPA") and its president, Sam Romeo, who at the time was also a member of our
board of directors, for breach of contract, fraud and, as to Mr. Romeo, breach
of fiduciary duty arising out of a May 2, 2000 agreement between UAIPA and us
(Med Diversified, Inc. v. University Affiliates IPA a/k/a Univ. Affiliates Med
Grp.; Sam J.W. Romeo, M.D. a/k/a Sam Romeo; Doe Defendants, Superior Court of
the State of California, County of Los Angeles, Case No. BC 266500). Under the
agreement, during the quarter ended June 2000, we advanced $2 million to UAIPA
for
28
the purpose of creating a joint venture intended to combine UAIPA's supposed
healthcare management expertise with Internet healthcare management systems
in an effort to develop new business opportunities. As of the filing of the
suit, the companies had not proceeded with the joint venture. According to
the original agreement, if a formal joint venture agreement were not entered
into between UAIPA and us by July 1, 2000, UAIPA would guarantee payment of
$2.5 million to us on or before July 1, 2001. The $2.5 million has not been
paid. We seek payment of this amount, plus any profits from the business
opportunities that were to be transferred to the joint venture, and punitive
damages.
On March 4, 2002, UAIPA served a cross-complaint against us, Sanga
E-Health, LLC, TSI Technologies, LLC, Mitchell Stein and John F. Andrews
("Andrews"), alleging breach of various contracts, breach of the implied
covenant of good faith and fair dealing, declaratory relief, promissory
estoppel, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit,
conversion, money had and received, breach of fiduciary duty, interference with
prospective business advantage and unfair business practices, seeking damages in
the aggregate of approximately $11 million plus punitive damages. The court
denied our motion to compel arbitration on May 8, 2002. We subsequently filed a
cross-complaint against UAIPA and Sam Romeo regarding their failure to adhere to
the May 2, 2000 agreement. No trial date has been set and UAIPA is currently in
bankruptcy proceedings.
Due to our filing for bankruptcy protection and UAIPA's bankruptcy
proceedings, this matter was subject to the automatic stay in both cases. On
June 16, 2003, the Bankruptcy Court has entered an order settling this
litigation without payment by any party.
NATIONAL CENTURY FINANCIAL ENTERPRISES, INC., NATIONAL PREMIER FINANCIAL
SERVICES, INC., NPF VI, INC., NPF X, INC., NPF XII, INC., NPF CAPITAL, INC.
On May 30, 2003, we, along with Chartwell, CCG, CCS, and Resource,
filed a lawsuit against NCFE and five legal designees of NCFE in the Bankruptcy
Court (Med Diversified, Inc.; Chartwell Diversified Services, Inc.; Chartwell
Care Givers, Inc.; Chartwell Community Services, Inc.; and Resource Pharmacy,
Inc. v. National Century Financial Enterprises Inc.; National Premier Financial
Services, Inc.; NPF, VI, Inc.; NPF X, Inc.; NPF XII, Inc.; NPF Capital, Inc.,
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York, Adversary
Proceeding No. 1-03-01320). We contend that the defendants engaged in a course
of conduct, whereby they fraudulently promised attractive returns to investors.
We believe that the defendants diverted investments and concealed the scheme by
fraudulently manipulating the use of new investments. We believe that the
defendants used us as an instrumentality to further this fraudulent conduct,
harming our estates. We also bring causes of action under theories of unjust
enrichment and fraud.
There are certain claims against us arising from transfers of funds
from the Defendants to us, including the Defendants' purported secured and
unsecured loans, purchases of receivables and other advances. We seek to
recharacterize these claims as equity interests, and to the extent that such
claims are recharacterized as equity interests, we seek to subordinate those
interests to those of the other equity holders. Further, we seek the turnover of
overfunded reserves and accrued subservicing fees by certain of the Defendants
and recovery for breach of certain sales and subservicing agreements between the
Defendants and us. We also seek recovery for the Defendants' breach of
commitments in connection with a bond initiative sponsored by PIBL, as well as
breach of the preferred provider agreement, entered into between NCFE and us in
February 2000. We also seek recovery of fraudulent transfers.
The defendants' answer on responsive pleadings was due on August 8,
2003 and was filed on such date. This adversary proceeding is in its initial
stages, with a pretrial conference set before the Bankruptcy Court on August 15,
2003.
STEPHEN SAVITSKY, DAVID SAVITSKY, DALE R. CLIFT
On May 16, 2003 we, along with TLCS, filed a lawsuit against Stephen
Savitsky ("S. Savitsky"), David Savitsky ("D. Savitsky"), and Dale R. Clift
("Clift") in the Bankruptcy Court (Med Diversified, Inc.; Tender Loving Care
Health Care Services, Inc. v. Stephen Savitsky; David Savitsky; Dale R. Clift,
United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of New York, Adversary
Proceeding No. 03-8244). Up until October 28, 2002, S. Savitsky served as Chief
Executive Officer of TLCS. From October 28, 2002 until his resignation on
November 6, 2002, S. Savitsky served as Executive Vice President of TLCS. Up
until or shortly after October 28, 2002, D. Savitsky served as Vice Chairman of
Governmental Affairs for TLCS. Up until February 27, 2002, Clift served as
President and Chief Operating Officer of TLCS.
We and TLCS made certain transfers and conveyances to S. Savitsky, D.
Savitsky and Clift during the course of their employment with TLCS. We and TLCS
seek to avoid and recover those transfers as preferential payments under the
Bankruptcy Code. We and TLCS also seek to avoid and recover those funds under
the theories of fraudulent transfers, fraudulent conveyances, and unjust
enrichment.
The defendants' answers were due on June 30, 2003 and were filed on
such date. Discovery is proceeding in this matter.
