NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

HEALTH CARE REIT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 1997 are not
necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 1997. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1996.

Net income per share has been computed by dividing net income by the average
number of common shares and common stock equivalents outstanding.

NOTE B - REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS

During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company provided permanent
mortgage financings of $32,421,000, invested $43,391,000 in operating leases and
made construction advances of $51,480,000. During the six months ended June 30,
1997, the Company received principal payments on real estate mortgages of
$12,761,000 and had net advances on working capital loans of $2,621,000.

With respect to the above-mentioned construction advances, funding associated
with 21 construction loans represented $34,319,000, and funding for construction
in progress in connection with 12 properties owned directly by the Company
totaled $17,085,000. During the six months ended June 30, 1997, eight of the
construction loans completed the construction phase of the Company's investment
process and were converted to investments in permanent mortgage loans, with an
aggregate investment of $62,940,000. Also during the six months ended June 30,
1997, one of the construction properties in progress completed the construction
phase of the Company's investment process and was converted to a permanent
operating lease, with an investment balance of $1,588,000.

At June 30, 1997, the Company had $238,819,000 in unfunded commitments.

NOTE C - INDEBTEDNESS AND SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

In January 1997, in connection with the underwriters' exercise of an over
allotment option associated with the Company's December 18, 1996 offering of
2,200,000 shares of common stock, the Company issued 330,000 shares of Common
Stock, $1.00 par value per share, at the price of $23.875 per share, which
generated net proceeds of $7,485,000 to the Company.

During the six month period ended June 30, 1997, the Company issued 3,150,000
shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par value per share, at the price of $24.375 per
share, which generated net proceeds to the Company of $72,261,000.

In March 1997, the Company closed a $175 million unsecured credit facility which
replaced the Company's then

-7-
8

existing secured credit facility. Simultaneous with the closing of the new
credit facility, all senior noteholders released collateral which had served as
security for the Company's then outstanding $82 million of senior indebtedness.

In April 1997, the Company completed the sale of $80 million of Senior Unsecured
Notes. The Company priced $20 million of notes due 2000, $20 million of notes
due 2002 and $40 million of notes due 2004. The notes have a weighted average
interest rate of 7.91%.

The Company has a total of $185,000,000 in unsecured credit facilities bearing
interest at the lenders' prime rate or LIBOR plus 1.125%, of which $140,400,000
was available at June 30, 1997.

NOTE D - INVESTMENT SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE

Investment securities available for sale are stated at fair value with
unrealized gains and losses reported in a separate component of shareholders'
equity. At June 30, 1997, available-for-sale securities are the common stock of
one corporation.

NOTE E - CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

As disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1996,
the Company was contingently liable for certain obligations amounting to
$18,815,000. No significant change in these contingencies had occurred as of

NOTE F - DISTRIBUTIONS PAID TO SHAREHOLDERS

On May 20, 1997, the Company paid a dividend of $0.525 per share to shareholders
of record on May 5, 1997. This dividend related to the period from January 1,
1997 through March 31, 1997.

NOTE G - EARNINGS PER SHARE

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, Earnings per Share, which is required to be adopted on December 31, 1997.
At that time, the Company will be required to change the method currently used
to compute earnings per share. The impact on primary earnings per share and
fully diluted earnings per share is not expected to be material.

NOTE H - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In July 1997, Moody's Investor Service assigned a `Ba1' rating to the Company's
Senior Unsecured Notes. In addition to the Moody's rating, the Company's Senior
Unsecured Notes are rated `BBB-' by Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Co.

August 20, 1997 to shareholders of record on August 4, 1997. The dividend

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
-------------------------------------------------
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
-----------------------------------

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

At June 30, 1997, the Company's net real estate investments totaled
approximately $627,082,000, which included 56 skilled nursing facilities, 82
assisted living facilities, 12 retirement centers, six specialty care facilities
and two behavioral care facilities. The Company funds its investments through a
combination of long-term and short-term financing, utilizing both debt and
equity.

As of June 30, 1997, the Company had shareholders' equity of $409,462,000 and a
total outstanding debt balance of $216,673,000, which represents a debt to
equity ratio of 0.53 to 1.0.

In January 1997, in connection with the underwriters' exercise of an over
allotment option associated with the Company's December 18, 1996 offering of
2,200,000 shares of common stock, the Company issued 330,000 shares of Common
Stock, $1.00 par value per share, at the price of $23.875 per share, which
generated net proceeds of $7,485,000 to the Company.

During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the Company issued 3,150,000 shares
of Common Stock, $1.00 par value per share, at the price of $24.375 per share,
which generated net proceeds to the Company of $72,261,000.

In April 1997, the Company completed the sale of $80 million of Senior Unsecured
Notes. The Company priced $20 million of notes due 2000, $20 million of notes
due 2002 and $40 million of notes due 2004. The notes have a weighted average
interest rate of 7.91%.

During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the proceeds derived from the
Company's capital raising activities were used to reduce bank debt under the
Company's revolving lines of credit arrangements.

In March 1997, the Company closed a $175 million unsecured credit facility which
replaced the Company's then existing secured credit facility. Simultaneous with
the closing of the new credit facility, all senior noteholders released
collateral which had served as security for the Company's then outstanding $82
million of senior indebtedness.

As of June 30, 1997, the Company had approximately $238,819,000 in unfunded
commitments. Under the Company's line of credit arrangements, available funding
totaled $140,400,000. The Company believes its liquidity and various sources of
available capital are sufficient to fund operations, finance future investments,
and meet debt service and dividend requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1997 were $18,448,000 as compared
with $14,625,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996. Revenue growth
resulted primarily from increased interest income of $2,323,000 and increased
operating lease income of $3,197,000 as a result of additional real estate
investments made during the past twelve months.

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1997 were $35,017,000 as compared
with $25,515,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996, an increase of
$9,502,000 or 37%. Revenue growth resulted primarily from increased interest
income of $4,835,000 and increased operating lease income of $6,199,000 as a
result of additional real estate investments made during the past twelve months.

The growth in interest and rental income for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1997 was offset


-9-
10

by a high incidence of prepayment fees and gains on the exercise of purchase
options earned during the second quarter of 1996, which totaled $2,117,000 as
compared to $477,000 for the same period in 1997.

Expenses for the three months ended June 30, 1997 totaled $6,520,000, an
increase of $464,000 from expenses of $6,056,000 for the same period in 1996.
The increase in total expenses was primarily related to additional expense
associated with the provision for depreciation, which was offset by a decrease
in interest expense.

Expenses for the six months ended June 30, 1997 totaled $13,263,000, an increase
of $1,994,000 from expenses of $11,269,000 for the same period in 1996. The
increase in total expenses was primarily related to an increase in interest
expense, additional expense associated with the provision for depreciation and
an increase in general and administrative expenses.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 1997 was $3,752,000 as
compared with $4,049,000 for the same period in 1996. The decrease in the 1997
period was primarily due to lower average borrowings under the Company's lines
of credit arrangements, which was offset by the issuance of $80,000,000 Senior
Unsecured Notes in April 1997.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 1997 was $7,763,000 as
compared with $7,560,000 for the same period in 1996. The increase in the 1997
period was primarily due to the issuance of $80,000,000 Senior Unsecured Notes
in April 1997.

The provision for depreciation for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1997 totaled $1,276,000 and $2,461,000 respectively, an increase of $721,000
and $1,431,000 over the comparable periods in 1996 as a result of additional
investments in properties owned directly by the Company.

General and administrative expense for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 1997 totaled $1,181,000 and $2,361,000 respectively, as compared with
$1,100,000 and $1,990,000 for the same periods in 1996. The expenses for the
three and six month periods in 1997 were 6.40% and 6.74% of revenues as compared
with 7.52% and 7.80% for the same periods in 1996.

As a result of the various factors mentioned above, net income for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 1997 was $11,928,000, or $0.54 per share, and
$21,754,000, or $1.05 per share, respectively, as compared with $8,569,000, or
$0.66 per share, and $14,246,000, or $1.13 per share, for the comparable periods
in 1996. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 1997 included
$2,117,000, or $0.16 per share, of prepayment fees and gains on the exercise of
purchase options, as compared with $477,000, or $0.02 per share, for the same
period in 1997.
