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, 1995.
2. Primary 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. Following the resolution of various issues pertaining to the
Company's accruals for income taxes relative to the sale of
DuBois Chemicals Inc. ("DuBois") in 1991, the Company
recorded an adjustment of $1,365,000 ($901,000 net of federal
income taxes) to its state and local income tax provision in
the first quarter of 1995. This adjustment is classified as
"discontinued operations" in the statement of income.
4. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company sold
approximately one-third of its investment in Omnicare Inc.
("Omnicare"), realizing a pretax gain of $14,208,000
($8,924,000 aftertax or $.91 per share). Similarly in the
first quarter of 1995, the Company recorded pretax gains
aggregating $3,732,000 ($2,463,000 or $.25 per share) from
the sales of portions of its investments in Omnicare and Exel
Ltd. ("Exel").

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Financial Condition
- -------------------
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities
increased from $29.3 million at December 31, 1995 to $42.0
million at March 31, 1996, largely as a result of cash generated
by the sale of a portion of the Company's investment in Omnicare,
partially offset by purchases of treasury stock during the
period. The decline in other investments from $90.2 million at
December 31, 1995 to $82.2 million is attributable to the sale of
Omnicare stock, partially offset by the appreciation of the
Company's investments, largely Omnicare and Exel.
Income taxes increased from $12.0 million at
December 31, 1995 to $18.8 million at March 31, 1996, primarily
as a result of the accrual of income taxes on the sale of
Omnicare stock in the first quarter of 1996.
At March 31, 1996 Chemed had approximately $43.1
million of unused lines of credit with various banks. Management
believes its liquidity and sources of capital are satisfactory
for the Company's needs in the foreseeable future.

================ ===============
Sales of the National Sanitary Supply segment for the
first quarter of 1996 totalled $77,277,000 as compared with
$80,793,000 in the prior year first quarter. This 4% decline was
attributable to the anticipated loss of a large fast-food
customer during the first quarter of 1996. Nonetheless, National
Sanitary Supply experienced significant growth in its core
sanitary maintenance business, especially in its western
operations, and is implementing programs to control expenses and
working capital. Additionally, management has begun new
marketing programs and is continuing geographic expansion which
should enhance future performance. Accordingly, the operating
margin for the first quarter of 1996 was 2.4%, essentially the
same as recorded during the comparable period of 1995.
Sales and service revenues for the Roto-Rooter segment
for the first quarter of 1996 totalled $47,783,000, an increase
of 9% over the $43,727,000 recorded in the first quarter of 1995.
Revenues of the plumbing services business, the drain cleaning
business and the service contract business increased 22%, 9% and
5%, respectively, for the first quarter of 1996, as compared with
Page 8 of 12
revenues recorded in the first quarter of 1995. These revenues
accounted for 25%, 33% and 27%, respectively, of Roto-Rooter's
total sales and service revenues during the 1996 period. The
operating margin of the Roto-Rooter segment in the first quarter
of 1996 was 8.8% as compared with 8.9% during the first quarter
of 1995.
Sales of the Omnia segment declined 26% in the first
quarter of 1996, from $24,858,000 in the prior year to
$18,511,000 in 1996. This expected decline is attributable to
the sale of Omnia's retail division in July 1995. Omnia's
wholesale sales for the first quarter of 1996, which includes the
sales of Central States Diversified ("CSD"), acquired in May
1995, increased 26% over wholesale sales for the first quarter of
1995. The operating margin improved from 5.8% during the first
quarter of 1995 to 8.1% during the first quarter of 1996,
primarily as a result of the acquisition of CSD and the higher
profit margins of Omnia's core wholesale and manufacturing
business.
Total revenues of the Patient Care segment increased
from $20,480,000 during the first quarter of 1995 to $23,890,000
in the first quarter of 1996. This revenue increase is
attributable to increased referrals as well as to growing demand
for home-based health care services. As a result of significant
revenue growth Patient Care leveraged its fixed expenses and
increased its operating margin from 4.2% during the first quarter
of 1995 to 4.5% during the first quarter of 1996.
Income from operations increased from $6,696,000 in the
first three months in 1995 to $7,011,000 during the first three
months of 1996, largely as a result of increases in operating
profit in the Roto-Rooter and Patient Care segments.
Other income--net increased from $5,649,000 in the
first quarter of 1995 to $16,298,000 in the first quarter of
1996, primarily as a result of larger investment gains recorded
in the 1996 period. During the first quarter of 1996 the Company
recorded gains on the sales of investments aggregating
$14,208,000 as compared with $3,732,000 during the first quarter
of 1995.
Income from continuing operations increased from
$5,385,000 aftertax ($.55 per share) in the 1995 quarter to
$12,197,00 aftertax ($1.24 per share) largely as a result of
larger investment gains recorded in the 1996 quarter. Excluding
investment gains for both periods, income from continuing
operations increased 10% from $2,922,000 aftertax ($.30 per
share) to $3,273,00 aftertax ($.33 per share) in the 1996
quarter.
Page 9 of 12
Net income increased from $6,286,000 ($.64 per share)
during the first quarter of 1995 to $12,197,000 ($1.24 per share)
during the first quarter of 1996. Discontinued operations for
1995 included a $901,000 aftertax adjustment to the tax provision
on the gain on the sale of operations discontinued in 1991.
