1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
of Pediatrix Medical Group, Inc. (the "Company" or "Pediatrix")
presented herein do not include all disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In
the opinion of management, these financial statements include all
adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary
for a fair presentation of the results of interim periods.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,
1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be
expected for the year ended December 31, 1998. The interim condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in
the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on March 31, 1998.
2. Business Acquisitions:
During the first six months of 1998, the Company completed the
acquisition of 10 physician group practices. Total consideration for
these acquisitions approximated $62 million in cash and 4,136,934
shares of stock in a subsidiary of the Company.
The Company has accounted for the acquisitions using the purchase
method of accounting and the excess of cost over fair value of net
assets acquired is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25
years. The results of operations of the acquired practices have been
included in the consolidated financial statements from the dates of
acquisition.
The following unaudited pro forma information combines the consolidated
results of operations of the Company and the physician group practices
acquired during 1997 and 1998 as if the acquisitions had occurred on
January 1, 1997:

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of common and potential common shares
outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the
dilutive effect of outstanding options calculated using the treasury
stock method.
5. Accounting Pronouncements Recently Issued:
During 1998, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income," which requires that all items

6. Contingencies:
During the ordinary course of business, the Company has become a party
to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, most of which
involve claims of medical malpractice and are generally covered by
insurance. These lawsuits are not expected to result in judgments which
would exceed professional liability insurance coverage, and, therefore
will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated results
of operations, financial position or liquidity, notwithstanding any
possible insurance recovery.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 as Compared to Three Months Ended
June 30, 1997
The Company reported net patient service revenue of $46.1 million for
the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $30.6 million for the
same period in 1997, a growth rate of 50.8%. Of this $15.5 million increase,
$14.4 million, or 92.9% was attributable to new units, including units at which
the Company provides services as a result of acquisitions. Same unit patient
service revenue, exclusive of administrative fees, increased $1.5 million, or
5.6%, for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Same units are those units at
which the Company provided services for the entire period for which the
percentage is calculated and the entire comparable period.
Salaries and benefits increased $8.8 million, or 44.6% to $28.6 million
for the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $19.8 million for the
same period in 1997. Of this $8.8 million increase, $6.5 million, or 73.7%, was
attributable to hiring new physicians, primarily to support new unit growth, and
the remaining $2.3 million was primarily attributable to increased support staff
and resources added in the areas of nursing, management and billing and
reimbursement. Supplies and other operating expenses increased $1.0 million, or
43.9% to $3.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with
$2.4 million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of new units.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.1 million, or 110.8% to
$2.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $1.0
million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of amortization of
goodwill in connection with acquisitions.
Income from operations increased approximately $4.6 million, or 61.4%,
to $12.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $7.5
million for the same period in 1997. The increase in income from operations was
primarily due to increased volume, principally from acquisitions.
The Company earned investment income of approximately $45,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with approximately $563,000 for
the same period in 1997. The decrease in investment income resulted primarily
from the use of funds in connection with acquisitions.
The effective income tax rate was approximately 40.0% for the three
month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
Net income increased 49.1% to $7.1 million for the three months ended
June 30, 1998, as compared with $4.8 million for the same period in 1997. Net
income as a percentage of net patient service revenue decreased to 15.4% for the
three months ended June 30, 1998, compared to 15.6% for the same period in 1997
primarily as a result of a decrease in investment income.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 as Compared to Six Months Ended
June 30, 1997
The Company reported net patient service revenue of $84.0 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $57.6 million for the same
period in 1997, a growth rate of 45.7%. Of this $26.4 million increase, $24.8
million, or 93.9% was attributable to new units at which the Company provides
services as a result of acquisitions. Same unit patient service revenue,
exclusive of administrative fees, increased $2.3 million, or 5.2%, for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. Same units are those units at which the Company
provided services for the entire period for which the percentage is calculated
and the entire comparable period.
Salaries and benefits increased $14.8 million, or 39.5% to $52.1
million for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $37.4 million
for the same period in 1997. Of this $14.8 million increase, $10.9 million, or
73.6%, was attributable to hiring new physicians, primarily to support new unit
9
growth, and the remaining $3.9 million was primarily attributable to increased
support staff and resources added in the areas of nursing, management and
billing and reimbursement. Supplies and other operating expenses increased $1.6
million, or 36.5% to $6.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as
compared with $4.5 million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of
new units. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $2.0 million, or
112.9% to $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with
$1.8 million for the same period in 1997, primarily as a result of amortization
of goodwill in connection with acquisitions.
Income from operations increased approximately $8.0 million, or 56.7%,
to $22.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $14.0
million for the same period in 1997. The increase in income from operations was
primarily due to increased volume, principally from acquisitions.
The Company earned investment income of approximately $491,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 1998, as compared with $1.3 million for the same
period in 1997. The decrease in investment income resulted primarily from the
use of funds in connection with acquisitions.
The effective income tax rate was approximately 40.0% for the six month
periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
Net income increased 45.7% to $13.2 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998, as compared with $9.1 million for the same period in 1997. Net
income as a percentage of net patient service revenue was 15.8% for the six
month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had working capital of approximately
$15.9 million, a decrease of $38.0 million from the working capital of $53.9
million available at December 31, 1997. The decrease is principally a result of
funds utilized for acquisitions during the first six months of 1998, offset by
cash generated from operations.
The Company anticipates that funds generated from operations together
with cash and funds available under its credit facility, will be sufficient to
meet its working capital requirements and finance any required capital
expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
------------------
During the ordinary course of business, the Company has become
a party to pending and threatened legal actions and proceedings, most
of which involve claims of medical malpractice and are generally
covered by insurance. These lawsuits are not expected to result in
judgments which would exceed professional liability insurance coverage,
and, therefore will not have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity,
notwithstanding any possible insurance recovery.
During 1998, the Internal Revenue Service concluded its
examination of the Company for the tax years ended December 31, 1992,
1993 and 1994. The resolution of the examination did not have a
material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or

hereof, the Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows, effective as of the
later of March 10, 1998 and the date each of the conditions in Section 4 hereof
is satisfied or waived:
2.1. Amendment of Section 2.1.3. Section 2.1.3. of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
" 2.1.3. Borrowing Requests. Any Borrower may from time to
time request a loan under Section 2.1.1 by providing to the
Agent a notice (which may be given by a telephone call
received by a Lending Officer if promptly confirmed in
writing). Such notice must be not later than noon (Boston
time) on the requested Closing Date, (which shall be the third
Banking Day prior to the requested Closing Date for such loan
if any portion of such loan will be subject to a Eurodollar
Pricing Option on the requested Closing Date). If such notice
requested that a loan, or any portion thereof, be made subject
to a Eurodollar Pricing Option, and the Agent shall have
notified the Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2.2 that such
election did not become effective, the notice shall be deemed
to have been made for a loan at the Base Rate. The notice must

(b) the requested Closing Date therefor (which shall be a
Banking Day) and (c) the portion of the requested loan that is
to be used for purposes other than Permitted Acquisitions.
Upon receipt of such notice, the Agent will promptly inform
each other Lender (by telephone or otherwise). Each such loan
will be made at the Boston Office by depositing the amount
thereof to the general account of such Borrower with the
Agent. In connection with each such loan, such Borrower shall
furnish to the Agent a certificate in substantially the form
of Exhibit 5.4.1."
2.2. Amendment of Section 4.1.4. Section 4.1.4. of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
"4.1.4. Reborrowing; Application of Payments. The amounts of
the Revolving Loan prepaid pursuant to Section 4.1.3 may be
reborrowed from time to time prior to the Final Maturity Date
in accordance with Section 2.1. The amount of the Revolving
Loan prepaid pursuant to Section 4.1.1 may not be reborrowed.
All payments of principal hereunder shall be made to the Agent
for the account of the Lenders and shall be applied first to
the portion of the Revolving Loan not then subject to
Eurodollar Pricing Option then the balance of any such payment
shall be applied to a portion of the Revolving Loan then
subject to the Eurodollar Pricing Options, in the
chronological order of the respective maturities, thereof,
together with any payment required by Section 3.4."
2.3. Amendment of Section 6.9.5. Section 6.9.5. of the Credit
Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read as follows:
"6.9.5. Loans to employees not to exceed a principal amount of
$1,000,000 in the aggregate at any one time outstanding
provided that loans may be made to selling physicians as part
of the consideration in a Permitted Acquisition in an amount
not to exceed $3,500,000."

(a) completion of three (3) continuous years of employment with
the Company and/or an Affiliate (including any Leave of Absence), commencing at
any time on or after the date on which the Participant first becomes a
Participant;
(b) the death of the Participant while employed by the Company or
an Affiliate; or
(c) the date on which the Participant becomes Disabled while
employed by the Company or an Affiliate.
4.3 Forfeiture. A Participant shall forfeit the full amount of his
Employer Contributions Account in the event that his employment with the Company
or any Affiliate is terminated prior to the date on which his Employer
Contributions Account is fully vested pursuant to Section 4.2.
ARTICLE 5
INVESTMENT OF PARTICIPANT'S ACCOUNT AND TRUST
5.1 Investment. Amounts credited to a Participant's Account shall be
contributed by the Company to the Trust as soon as practicable after they are so
credited. The value of a Participant's Account shall be measured as if amounts
credited to such Account were actually invested in the Investment Funds selected
by the Participant in accordance with the Plan, and shall be credited with gains
and losses allocable thereto at such times and in such manner as shall be
determined by the Committee. Each Eligible Employee upon becoming a Participant
shall elect on the Participant Election and Enrollment Form the portion of the
Participant's Account, in whole percentages, that are to be treated as if
invested in each of the Investment Funds. A Participant may, as of the first day
of each calendar quarter and in such manner as shall be permitted by the
Committee, change such election as to the investments upon which the value of
his Participant's Account is to be measured. The Company may direct the Trustees
that the assets of each Trust be invested in any one, or combination, of the
Investment Funds, or in any other investments determined by the Company,
notwithstanding the Participant's election as to the manner in which the value
of his Account is to be measured. In the event that the Investment Funds are
those that are part of a life insurance policy, then the value of the
Participant's Account shall be measured as if it were invested in the Investment
Funds selected by the Participant within a life insurance policy which could be
acquired by the Company or Trust in accordance with the Plan, and shall be
reduced by all cost of insurance and other policy costs, expenses and other
charges (including any potential charges) that are or would be incurred if such
Policy were maintained. In no event, however, shall the Company be required to
purchase or continue to maintain any such life insurance policies, or to invest
any amounts within the life insurance policy in accordance with the
Participant's election with regard to the manner in which the value of his
Account is to be measured.
ARTICLE 6
DISTRIBUTIONS
6.1 Timing of Distributions.
(a) Participant's Account. The vested portion of the
Participant's Account, less any applicable tax withholding, shall be distributed
to the Participant commencing upon the Participant's termination of employment
with the Company and its Affiliates for any reason, including the Participant's
death or Disability. The distribution shall commence as soon as administratively
practicable after the first day of the calendar month immediately following the
date of the Participant's termination of employment with the Company and its
Affiliates. The Company may, in its discretion, defer the distribution until the
Participant's Normal Retirement Age. If the Company defers the Participant's
distribution, the Participant may continue to direct the manner in which his
Participant's Account is deemed to be invested until actual distribution.
(b) Acceleration of Distributions. Distribution shall be
accelerated upon the following occurrences:
(i) Hardship Distributions. Upon the written request
of a Participant and in the event the Committee determines that an
"unforeseeable emergency" has occurred with respect to a Participant, the
Participant may withdraw the lesser of (1) the amount necessary to meet the
emergency or (2) the vested portion of the Participant's Account. For this
purpose, an "unforeseeable emergency" shall mean an unanticipated emergency,
such as a sudden and unexpected illness or accident of the Participant or a
dependent of the Participant or loss of the Participant's property due to
casualty, that is caused by an event beyond the control of the Participant and
that would result in severe financial hardship if the withdrawal were not
permitted. The need to pay a Participant's child's tuition to college and the
desire to purchase a home shall not be considered unforeseeable emergencies; or
(ii) Change of Control. In the event of a Change of
Control as defined in Section 1.5 hereof, the full amount of the Participant's
Account shall be distributed to the Participant as soon as administratively
practicable following the Change of Control, unless the Board of Directors of
the Company as constituted immediately prior to the Change of Control shall
otherwise provide.
6.2 Form of Distribution. The distribution to the Participant shall
be made in cash either (a) in a lump sum distribution or (b) in up to twenty
(20) consecutive quarterly installments, as elected by the Participant. Each
quarterly installment shall be equal to the remaining value of the Participant's
Account being distributed multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is 1
and the denominator of which is the number of quarterly installments remaining
to be paid. A Participant may elect, on a form provided by the Committee, the
form in which his Participant's Account is to be distributed under this Section
6.2; provided, however, that no such election, or change in any election, shall
be given effect unless it is made at least one year prior to the date on which
distribution of the Participant's Account commences. In the event that a
Participant fails to make an election, then distribution shall be made in the
form of a lump sum.
6.3 Distribution to Beneficiary. If a Participant dies before
distribution of the entire vested portion of the Participant's Accounts has been
made to him, the remaining vested portion of his Participant's Account, less
applicable withholding taxes, shall be distributed to the Participant's
Beneficiaries in a lump sum distribution in cash.
ARTICLE 7
ADMINISTRATION
7.1 Administrative Committee. The Company shall appoint a Committee
for the administration of the Plan consisting of one or more persons. Any
Committee member may, but need not, be an officer or employee of any
Participating Company and each shall serve until his successor shall be
appointed in like manner. Any member of the Committee may resign by delivering
his written resignation to the Company. The Company may remove any member of the
Committee at any time.
7.2 Powers and Duties. The Committee generally shall be responsible
for the management, operation, interpretation and administration of the Plan.
The Committee shall:
(a) Establish procedures for allocation of responsibilities of
the Plan which are not allocated herein;
(b) Determine the names of those officers and other executives
who are eligible to participate and such other matters as may be necessary to
enable payment under the Plan;
(c) Construe all terms, provisions, conditions and limitations of
the Plan and make all factual determinations relating to the Plan;
(d) Correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any
inconsistency that may appear in the Plan and make all factual determinations
relating to the Plan;
(e) Determine the amount, manner and time of payment of any
benefits hereunder and prescribe procedures to be followed by Participants to
obtain benefits; and
(f) Perform such other functions and take such other actions as
may be required by the Plan or as may be necessary or advisable to accomplish
the purposes of the Plan.
The Company shall furnish the Committee with all data and information available
which the Committee may reasonably require in order to perform its functions
hereunder. The Committee may rely without question upon any such data or
information furnished by the Company. Any interpretation or other decision made
by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all persons in the
absence of clear and convincing evidence that the Committee acted arbitrarily
and capriciously.
7.3 Agents. The Committee may appoint a Secretary who may, but need
not, be a member of the Committee, and may employ such agents for clerical and
other services, and such counsel, accountants and other professional advisors as
may be required for the purpose of administering the Plan. The Committee may
rely on all tables, valuations, reports, certificates and opinions furnished by
its agents.
7.4 Procedures. A majority of the Committee members shall constitute
a quorum for the transaction of business. No action shall be taken except upon a
majority vote of the Committee. An individual shall not vote or decide upon any
matter relating solely to himself or vote in any case in which his individual
right or claim to any benefit under the Plan is particularly involved. In any
case in which a Committee member is so disqualified to act, and the remaining
members cannot agree on an issue, the Company shall appoint a temporary
substitute member to exercise all of the powers of the disqualified member
concerning the matter in which he is disqualified.
7.5 Claims Procedure. In the event that any Participant or
Beneficiary claims to be entitled to benefits under the Plan and the Committee
determines that such claim should be denied in whole or in part, the Committee
shall, in writing, notify such claimant within ninety (90) days of receipt of
such claim that his claim has been denied, setting forth the specific reasons
for such denial. Such notification shall be written in a manner reasonably
expected to be understood by such Participant or Beneficiary and shall set forth
the pertinent sections of the Plan relied on, and where appropriate, an
explanation of how the claimant can obtain review of such denial.
Within sixty (60) days after the mailing or delivery by the Committee
of such notice, such claimant may request, by mailing or delivery of written
notice to the Committee, a review and/or hearing by the Committee of the
decision denying the claim. If the claimant fails to request such a review
and/or hearing within such sixty (60) day period, it shall be conclusively
determined for all purposes of this Plan that the denial of such claim by the
Committee is correct. If such claimant requests a hearing within such sixty (60)
day period, the Committee shall designate a time (which time shall not be less
than seven (7) nor more than sixty (60) days from the date of such claimant's
notice to the Committee) and a place for such hearing, and shall promptly notify
such claimant of such time and place. A claimant or his authorized
representative shall be entitled to inspect all pertinent Plan documents and to
submit issues and comments in writing. If only a review is requested, the
claimant shall have sixty (60) days after filing a request for review to submit
additional written material in support of the claim. After such review and/or
hearing, the Committee shall promptly determine whether such denial of the claim
was correct and shall notify such claimant in writing of its determination with
sixty (60) days after such review and/or hearing or after receipt of any
additional information submitted.
7.6 Indemnification. The Participating Companies shall indemnify each
Committee member against any liability or loss sustained by reason of any act or
failure to act made in good faith, including, but not limited to, those in
reliance on certificates, reports, tables, opinions or other communications from
any company or agents chosen by the Committee in good faith. Such
indemnification shall include attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses
reasonably incurred in defense of any action brought by reason of any such act
or failure to act.
7.7 Participants Bound. Any action with respect to the Plan taken by
the Committee, any Participating Company or the Trustees or any action
authorized by or taken at the direction of the Committee, any Participating
Company or the Trustees shall be conclusive upon all Participants and
beneficiaries entitled to benefits under the Plan.
7.8 Receipts and Release. Any payment to any Participant or
beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent
thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Participating
Companies, the Committee and the Trustee under the Plan, and the Committee may
require such Participant or beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such
payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect. If any Participant or
beneficiary is determined by the Committee to be incompetent by reason of
physical or mental disability (including minority) to give a valid receipt and
release, the Committee may cause the payment or payments becoming due to such
person to be made to another person for his or her benefit without
responsibility on the part of the Committee, the Participating Companies or the
Trustee to follow the application of such funds.
ARTICLE 8
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 Unfunded Plan. The obligations of the Participating Companies
under this Plan shall be paid from the general assets of the Participating
Companies and not from any particular fund, with each Participating Company
being solely responsible for payment of the benefits of its employees and their
beneficiaries. It is intended that this Plan shall constitute an "unfunded" plan
for a select group of management or highly compensated employees under the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. If a Participating
Company purchases any life insurance policies, or makes any other investments,
either directly or through the Trust, such policies (and any amounts invested by
the Participating Company therein) and any other investments of the
Participating Company or the Trust shall be subject to the claims of the
Participating Company's creditors. Nothing contained in this Plan shall be
interpreted to grant to any Participant or Beneficiary, any right, title or
interest in any property of the Company or the Trust.
8.2 Successor Plan. In the event that a Participant ceases to be an
Eligible Person, but becomes an Eligible Person under any non-qualified deferred
compensation plan maintained by a Participating Company (the "Successor Plan"),
then the Participant's Accounts under this Plan shall, in the discretion of the
Committee, cease to be governed by this Plan and instead shall be governed by
the provisions of the Successor Plan.
8.3 Impact on Other Participant Benefits. This Plan shall not be
construed to impact or cause the denial of any benefits to which any Participant
may be entitled under any other welfare or benefit plan of any Participating
Company.
8.4 Other Plans. Payments made to Participants under this Plan shall
not be includable as salary or compensation for purposes of determining the
amount of employee benefits under any other retirement, pension, profit-sharing
or welfare benefit plans of the Participating Companies.
8.5 Tax Withholding. The Committee and/or the Trustees shall withhold
from any contribution to, amounts accumulated under, or distribution from, the
Plan or Trust such amounts as the Committee or the Trustees shall be determined
to be appropriate for Federal or State local taxes attributable thereto.
8.6 Governing Law. To the extent not preempted by the laws of the
United States, the construction, validity and administration of the Plan shall
be governed by the laws of the state Florida without reference to the principles
of conflicts of law therein.
8.7 No Assignment. The right to receive payment of any benefits under
the Plan shall not be transferred, assigned or pledged.
8.8 Severability. If any provision of this Plan is found, held or
deemed to be void, unlawful or unenforceable under any applicable statute or
other controlling law, the remainder of the Plan shall continue in full force
and effect.
8.9 Headings and Subheadings. Headings and subheadings in this Plan
are for reference only. In the event of a conflict between a heading or
subheading and the content of an article or paragraph, the content shall
control.
8.10 Gender. The masculine, as used herein, shall be deemed to
include the feminine and the singular to include plural, except where the
context requires a different construction.
8.11 Amendment and Termination. This Plan may be amended or
terminated in any respect at any time by the Company; provided, however, that no
amendment or termination of the Plan shall be effective to reduce any benefits
that accrue before the adoption of such amendment or termination. In the event
that the Plan is terminated, then distributions shall be made to all
Participants and Beneficiaries of the vested portion of their Participant's
Account in a single lump sum payment as soon as practicable following such
termination.
8.12 No Employment Contract. This Plan does not constitute a
contract of employment or impose on any Participant or any Participating Company
any obligations to retain the Participant as an employee, to change the status
of the Participant's employment, or to change the Participating Company's
policies regarding termination of employment.
8.13 Right of Offset. The Company shall have the right to offset
against any benefits payable to any Participant or the Beneficiary if any
Participant under the Plan, any amounts payable by the Participant to the
Company.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each Participating Company has caused the Plan to
be executed the day and year first above written.
