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, 1993.
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. Equity in earnings of affiliate represents Chemed's aftertax
share of the net income of Omnicare, Inc. ("Omnicare"), a
public company operating in the health care industry whose
stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange. At
March 31, 1994, the Company's investment in Omnicare of
$29,913,000 was $3,239,000 in excess of its 26% equity
interest ($3,451,000 at December 31, 1993). The market value
of the Company's investment at March 31, 1994, based on that
day's closing market price of $29 3/4, was $71,117,000.
Chemed received cash dividends totaling $114,000 during the
first quarter of 1994 (1993 - $102,000).
During the first quarter of 1994, Chemed sold 149,900 shares
of its investment in Omnicare, realizing a pretax gain of
$3,184,000 ($1,817,000 aftertax).
4. Effective January 1, 1994, Chemed acquired all of the capital
stock of Patient Care Inc. ("Patient Care") for cash payments
aggregating $20,582,000, including deferred payments with a
present value of $6,271,000, plus 17,500 shares of Chemed
Capital Stock. Additional cash payments of up to $10,400,000
may be made, the amount being contingent upon the earnings of
Patient Care during the three-year period ended
Page 6 of 15
December 31, 1995. Patient Care emphasizes personal care in
the home, with services including skilled nursing; medical
and social work; nutrition; and other specialized services.
The aggregate purchase price of Patient Care and other
purchase business combinations completed in the first three
months of 1994 has been allocated as follows (in thousands):
Working capital $ 9,669
Goodwill 15,990
Long-term debt (7,000)
Other assets and liabilities - net 3,116
------------
Total net assets 21,775
Less: cash and cash
equivalents acquired (182)
Less: deferred payments (6,271)
Less: capital stock issued (500)
------------
Net cash used $ 14,822
============
Unaudited pro forma sales and service revenues, which assume
that the acquisitions of Patient Care and Encore Service
Systems Inc. (acquired in July 1993) were completed on
January 1, 1993 are as follows (in thousands):
For the three months
ended March 31,
--------------------
1994 1993
-------- --------
Total sales and service
revenues $152,069 $137,904
======== ========
These acquisitions did not materially impact income before
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle for
1993 or 1994. In conjunction with the purchase of Patient
Care, an application for the transfer of ownership of one
region of Patient Care has been made with a state regulatory
agency and is expected to be approved during 1994.
5. Effective January 1, 1994, Chemed adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 ("SFAS 115"),
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity
Securities." Accordingly, the Company has classified its
cash equivalents and marketable securities as "trading
securities" under SFAS 115 and its investments included in
Page 7 of 15
other investments as "available for sale." The resultant
cumulative effect of adopting SFAS 115 on the Company's
statement of income in 1994 was immaterial. The cumulative
effect of adopting SFAS 115 on the Company's balance sheet as
of January 1, 1994 was to increase stockholders' equity by
$12,975,000.
As a result of adopting SFAS 115, investments in debt and
marketable equity instruments are recorded at their fair
value at March 31, 1994 and nonmarketable equity investments
are recorded at cost. Such investments at December 31, 1993
were recorded at amortized cost, which approximated their
fair value.
In computing realized gains or losses on the sale of
investments, the Company uses the "specific identification"
method to determine the cost of investments sold.
6. On March 4, 1994, the Company entered into a $10,000,000 term
loan agreement ("Agreement") with Fifth Third Bank. The
interest rate is variable and is based on current market
conditions, or that the option of the Company, the rate may
be fixed based on a stipulated formula. The loan matures on
March 4, 1999 and may be prepaid without penalty. The
current variable interest rate is 4.9%
7. On April 15, 1994, the Company's 89%-owned subsidiary,
National Sanitary Supply company ("National Sanitary"),
finalized the purchase of two southern California facilities
at a total cost of $3,282,000 in cash. These facilities had
been previously leased from the former owners of National
Sanitary since 1983. The lease had included an option to
purchase these facilities at their fair market value as of
November 1983.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Financial Condition
- - -------------------
Increases in accounts receivable, goodwill and accounts
payable from recorded amounts at December 31, 1993 to balances as
of March 31, 1994 are primarily attributable to the Company's
acquisition of Patient Care Inc. ("Patient Care") effective
January 1, 1994. The increase in other investments from
$37,657,000 at December 31, 1993 to $50,940,000 at March 31, 1994
is primarily attributable to the Company's adoption of Statement
of Financial Standards No. 115 ("SFAS 115") effective January 1,
1994. Such investments are classified as "available for sale"
and include $14,885,000 of unrealized appreciation on debt and
marketable equity investments at March 31, 1994. The aftertax
impact of this unrealized gain is included in stockholders'
equity and amounts to $9,824,000 at March 31, 1994.
The increase in income taxes from $20,448,000 at
December 31, 1993 to $23,513,000 at March 31, 1994 is primarily
attributable to the recognition of gains ($4,827,000 before
income taxes) from the sales of investments in the first quarter
of 1994. The taxes on these gains will not be paid until the
second quarter of 1994.
Increases in other current liabilities and other
liabilities and deferred income as of March 31, 1994 versus
balances at December 31, 1993 are primarily attributable to the
recording of deferred payments for the purchase of Patient Care
in January 1994. The current portion of these payments included
in other current liabilities amounts to $2,938,000 at
March 31, 1994 and the non-current portion amounts to $3,386,000.
In addition, to assist with financing the purchase of Patient
Care, the Company entered into a credit agreement with the Fifth
Third Bank of Cincinnati, Ohio in March 1994 to borrow
$10,000,000 for a period of five years.
At March 31, 1994 Chemed had approximately $34,250,000
of unused lines of credit with various banks.

================ ===============
Sales of the National Sanitary Supply segment for the
first quarter of 1994 increased by 3% over sales for the first
quarter of 1993, despite the business disruptions caused by the
earthquake in National Sanitary's large Southern California
market. The operating margin of this segment improved slightly
from 2.0% during 1993 to 2.1% during 1994.
Sales and service revenues of the Roto-Rooter segment
for the first quarter of 1994 totaled $41,536,000, an increase of
51% over the $27,568,000 recorded for the first quarter of 1993.
Excluding the revenues of Encore Service Systems Inc. ("Encore"),
acquired jointly by the Company and Roto-Rooter in July 1993,
Roto-Rooter's total revenues for 1994 increased 16% versus
revenues for 1993. Revenues from plumbing repair and maintenance
services for 1994, which comprise approximately 21% of Roto-
Rooter's total revenues, increased by 29% when compared with
amounts recorded for 1993. Roto-Rooter's operating margin
declined from 10.0% during 1993 to 8.5% during 1994 primarily as
a result of the acquisition of Encore. The economies achieved as
Encore is integrated into the existing service contract business
should enable Encore to reach the margin achieved in Roto-
Rooter's other businesses. Partially offsetting the lower
margins of the Encore business was a favorable decline in
insurance costs as a percent of sales from 5.0% in the first
three months of 1993 to 3.1% in the first three months of 1994 as
a result of continuing improvements in Roto-Rooter's safety
record.
Sales of the Veratex segment, for the first three
months of 1994 increased by 2% over amounts recorded during the
first three months of 1993, reflecting the impact of severe
winter weather which made it impossible for a large number of
Veratex's customers to see their normal number of patients. The
Page 11 of 15
operating margin of this segment increased from 6.0% during 1993
to 6.8% during 1994. This increase was largely due to an
increase in the gross profit margin during the 1994 period as a
result of improved pricing and lower manufacturing costs.
Patient Care, acquired at the beginning of 1994,
contributed $15,107,000 and $496,000 to sales and operating
profit, respectively, during the first quarter of 1994. Compared
with its 1993 first quarter results, revenues of Patient Care
increased by 26% in 1994.
On a consolidated basis, Chemed's sales and service
revenues for the first quarter of 1994 increased 26% over amounts
recorded during the first quarter of 1993. Excluding the sales
of Encore and Patient Care, sales for 1994 increased by 6% over
amounts recorded during 1993. The total operating margin of
Chemed improved slightly from 4.6% during 1993 to 4.7% during
1994.
Income from operations increased from $3,892,000 during
the first quarter of 1993 to $5,670,000 during the first quarter
of 1994, primarily as a result of the acquisitions of Encore in
July 1993 and of Patient Care in January 1994.
Interest expense for the first quarter of 1994 totaled
$2,047,000 as compared with $2,273,000 during the first quarter
of 1993. This decline was primarily due to the maturity of the
Company's Series A Senior Notes in November 1993, which carried
an interest rate of approximately 10%. This debt has been
replaced with short-term and long-term borrowings carrying
interest rates of approximately 5%.
Other income for 1994 totaled $6,313,000 as compared
with $4,670,000 for the first quarter 1993. This increase was
attributable to larger gains on the sales of investments
($4,827,000 in 1994 versus $2,637,000 in 1993) partially offset
by lower interest income in 1994 (due primarily to lower interest
rates on cash equivalents and marketable securities).
During the first quarter of 1994 the Company's
effective income tax rate was 40.7% as compared with 31.2% during
the comparable period of 1993. The higher rate in 1994 was
attributable to: a) a lower domestic dividend deduction and
lower ESOP tax credit (as a percent of pretax income) in the 1994
quarter; b) a higher effective state and local tax rate for the
1994 period; c) a lower tax basis (versus book basis) on
investments sold in 1994; and, d) lower favorable tax adjustments
in the 1994 period versus those recorded in the first quarter of
1993.
Page 12 of 15
Chemed's share of the earnings of Omnicare, a 26%-owned
affiliate engaged in the pharmacy services business, increased by
30% from $479,000 in the first quarter of 1993 to $621,000 in the
first quarter of 1994. The increase in Omnicare's income is
largely attributable to continuing advances in its acquisition
program.
Chemed's income before cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle increased from $4,078,000 ($.42 per share)
during the first quarter of 1993 to $5,677,000 ($.58 per share)
during the first quarter of 1994. Earnings for 1994 included an
aftertax gain of $2,688,000 ($.28 per share) from the sales of
investments during 1994. Similarly, during 1993 the Company
recognized an aftertax gain of $1,741,000 ($.18 per share) from
the sale of a portion of the Company's investment in EXEL Ltd.
Net income for 1994's first quarter totaled $5,677,000
($.58 per share) as compared with $5,729,000 ($.59 per share) for
the first quarter of 1993. Effective January 1, 1993, the
Company recorded an aftertax gain of $1,651,000 ($.17 per share)
from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
