MAXICARE HEALTH PLANS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Business Description

     Maxicare Health Plans, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“MHP” or “the Company”), is a holding company that formerly operated health maintenance organizations and other subsidiaries, primarily in the field of managed care. As of March 15, 2002 all operations of MHP and its subsidiaries were terminated. MHP and its subsidiaries have not engaged in any business activities since that date. At March 31, 2004 we had negative net worth of $3.8 million and a working capital deficiency of $1.9 million. See “Liquidity and Going Concern Issues” below.

     All significant subsidiaries formally operated by MHP (the California and Indiana HMOs and Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc.) were placed into bankruptcy, rehabilitation and administrative supervision, respectively, in May of 2001 and are currently in liquidation. Accordingly, these former subsidiaries were no longer included in our consolidated financial statements after May 2001. We will receive no distribution of assets from the California HMO, are very unlikely to receive any distribution of assets from the Indiana HMO, and cannot determine whether or not we will receive a distribution of assets from Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. Any distribution from Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc., if assets ultimately are available for distribution, will require regulatory approval.

     We own Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd., a captive insurer that provided certain insurance coverage to MHP and its subsidiaries. Effective January 31, 2002, all policies underwritten by Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd., have terminated or expired. We also served as administrator of the California Access for Infants and Mothers (“AIM”) program through another of our subsidiaries. Administration of the AIM program was transferred to another health care provider effective March 15, 2002.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been included. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Consolidation

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The accounts of the California HMO, the Indiana HMO and Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. are not consolidated. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Policies

     For further information on MHP and subsidiaries (collectively “we” or the “Company”) and our accounting policies refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Earnings per Share

     The denominator used in calculating both basic and diluted earnings per share in the Consolidated Statements of Operations is the weighted average number of shares outstanding for each period indicated. All potentially dilutive securities, consisting solely of employee stock options, were antidilutive for each of the periods presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Stock-Based Compensation

     We account for stock-based compensation under the recognition and measurement principles (the intrinsic-value method) prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Compensation cost for stock options is reflected in net income and is measured as the excess of the market price of the

6


 

Company’s stock at the date of grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock.

     We have adopted the disclosure provisions required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure.

     No compensation expense was recorded under the intrinsic value method for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003. Additionally, no material expense would have been recognized under the fair value method for the three months ended March 31, 2004 and 2003.

Note 3 — Liquidity and Going Concern Issues

     At March 31, 2004 we had a consolidated working capital deficiency of approximately $1.9 million, and a deficiency in shareholders’ equity of approximately $3.8 million. Furthermore, of our total cash and cash equivalents of $4.3 million at March 31, 2004, $2.5 million was held at Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd. The transfer of cash to MHP from Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd requires the approval of regulatory authorities.

     As noted above, we had no continuing business activities after March 15, 2002. We have no access to cash that is held at Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd. except to the extent regulatory authorities approve the transfer of cash to MHP. As set forth below in Note 4 “Commitments and Contingencies”, substantial claims have been or may be asserted against us. Such claims, when resolved, may be far in excess of liabilities reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

     These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

     Management is exploring possible strategies to realize any possible value remaining in the Company; however, given our financial condition, our stock price and the claims against us, it is very possible that management will not be successful in these efforts, and we may seek protection under the Bankruptcy Code.

Note 4 — Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Contract Terminations

     On or about June 25, 2001, the Commissioner of the Indiana Department of Insurance (the “Commissioner”), as the rehabilitator of Maxicare Indiana, Inc., our Indiana HMO, filed a complaint (the “Complaint”) in the Marion County Circuit Court of Indiana against us and the five directors of the Indiana HMO, one of whom was a director of the Company. The Commissioner amended the Complaint on February 1, 2002. The Complaint, as amended, alleges, in substance, that: (1) the directors of the Indiana HMO breached their fiduciary duty by failing to maintain a plan providing for continuation of care benefits in the event that the Indiana HMO was placed in receivership, and that the Company is also liable for such failure; (2) the Company fraudulently concealed the financial condition of the Indiana HMO; (3) the Company manipulated the finances of the Indiana HMO for the Company’s own benefit; and (4) the Company received preferential and/or fraudulent transfers of money from the Indiana HMO. While the amended Complaint requests money damages in largely unspecified amounts, we understand the Commissioner’s claims against us to be in excess of $48.0 million. All defendants answered the amended Complaint on April 5, 2002. Pre-trial discovery has not been completed. We believe that the claims against us are without merit and intend to vigorously defend the suit. The amounts sought by the Commissioner are significantly in excess of liabilities recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ultimate resolution of this matter, if unfavorable, could materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

     Effective January 1, 2001, we entered into a Pharmacy Benefits Management Agreement (the “PBM Agreement”) with Medimpact Healthcare Systems, Inc. (“Medimpact”). The PBM Agreement called for Medimpact to process and fill within its network of contracting pharmacies prescriptions for members of Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc., the California HMO and the Indiana HMO. The PBM Agreement called for us to reimburse Medimpact for the cost of drugs dispensed and to pay per transaction administrative fees on a bi-weekly basis. As a result of the Indiana HMO being placed in rehabilitation and the California HMO’s bankruptcy, Medimpact allegedly has not received reimbursement for certain prescriptions filled on behalf of the members of those subsidiaries. Although it has yet to do so, Medimpact may seek reimbursement from us for such costs in an amount not presently known. We, in turn, believe that we have claims against Medimpact for rebates due to us.

     By order dated March 9, 2001, the Missouri Department of Insurance approved the transfer of all of the outstanding shares of Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. from us to Maxicare Indiana, Inc., on the condition that control of Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. remain with us. We believe that this condition has not been complied with and that, accordingly, the transfer of the Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. shares by us to Maxicare Indiana, Inc. is null and void. We intend to present our position to the Missouri Department of Insurance at the appropriate time.

     The landlord under the terms of a lease expiring in May 2004 for 79,000 square feet of industrial space in Los Angeles claims that we are obligated to surrender that space in its original condition. We have previously made extensive modifications to the leased premises. The landlord claims that the restoration of the space may cost $1.5 million. We believe that the landlord’s claim is without merit.

     Six former employees of the Indiana HMO have made demand on us for the payment of approximately $400,000 in severance payments. We believe these claims are without merit.

     Other than those noted above, no claims have been filed against us by the creditors of Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc., the California HMO or the Indiana HMO. However, such creditors may file claims against us in the future.

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations, Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy

Current Status

     We have had no active business since March 15, 2002 and have no reasonable prospects of obtaining or generating any active business. We have no means of generating additional cash.

     We are exploring possible strategies to realize any possible value remaining in the Company. Any such strategy may include the ultimate liquidation of Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd.; however, because of our financial condition and the claims of our creditors, we may seek protection under the Bankruptcy Code.

Liquidity and Working Capital Deficiency

     As noted above, we have terminated all operations. At March 31, 2004, we had a consolidated working capital deficiency of approximately $1.9 million and a deficiency in shareholders’ equity of approximately $3.8 million. Furthermore, of our total cash and cash equivalents of $4.3 million at March 31, 2004, $2.5 million was held at Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd. The transfer of cash to MHP from Health Care Assurance Company, Ltd. requires the approval of regulatory authorities.

     In February 2004, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release with a former executive under the terms of which we paid that executive $550,000 in addition to amounts already attached by the executive under a lien, for a total payment of $1,317,000.

     We have certain contractual undertakings for which we may be liable and there are various alleged claims that may be asserted against us, including, among others, undertakings to and/or purported claims against us by vendors and former employees of our subsidiaries who have provided goods or services to those subsidiaries.

     We are involved in various legal actions brought against us in the normal course of business, some of which seek damages in amounts that exceed those accrued in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ultimate liability for these legal actions cannot be determined and could materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows, if resolved unfavorably. See “Note 4 – Commitments and Contingencies” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Disposition of Subsidiaries

     The California and Indiana HMOs and Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. are currently in liquidation. We will receive no distribution of assets from the California HMO, are unlikely to receive any distribution from the Indiana HMO, and may or may not receive a distribution from Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. Any distribution from Maxicare Life and Health Insurance Company, Inc. if assets ultimately are available for distribution will require regulatory approval.

Results of Operations

The Quarter Ended March 31, 2004 Compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2003

     We reported a loss of approximately $.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2004 compared to a loss of approximately $.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2003. We had no revenue other than insignificant amounts of interest income in the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003. All expenses in the quarters ended March 31, 2004 and March 31, 2003 were salary, general and administrative expenses.

Contractual Obligations

     In our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003, we reported on our contractual obligations as of that date. Through March 31, 2004 there were no material changes to that information.

Forward Looking Statements

     The statements in this Form 10-Q may be forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements in this Form 10-Q that state our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions are “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to, those identified under “Risk Factors” and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations in this Form 10-Q, as well as those described in any other filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as general economic conditions, any one or more of which could cause actual results to differ materially from those stated in such statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

     As of March 31, 2004, we had approximately $4.3 million in cash, no marketable securities and no restricted investments. Our investment policies emphasize return of principal and liquidity and are focused on fixed returns that limit volatility and risk of principal. Because of our investment policies, the primary market risk associated with our portfolio is interest rate risk. As of March 31, 2004, we did not have any outstanding bank borrowings or debt obligations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

     Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have supervised and participated in an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days of the date of this report, and, based on their evaluations, they believe that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. As a result of the evaluation, there were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
