NOTES TO UNAUDITED 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

statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form
10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 1997.

Note D - Direct Investments

Management determines the appropriate classification of a direct investment at
the time of acquisition and reevaluates such designation as of each balance
sheet date. Debt securities which are classified as held to maturity are stated
at historical cost. Equity investments are stated at historical cost. At March
31, 1998, direct investments included the preferred stock of two private
corporations and subordinated debt in four private corporations.


Note E - Marketable Securities

Marketable securities are stated at market value with unrealized gains and
losses reported in a separate component of shareholders' equity. At March 31,
1998, marketable securities reflected the market value of the common stock of
two publicly owned corporations, which were obtained by the Company at no cost,
and the fair value of the common stock related to warrants in one publicly owned
corporation in excess of the exercise price.


Note F - Contingent Liabilities

As disclosed in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1997,

Note I - Comprehensive Income

As of January 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement 130, Reporting
Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and
display of comprehensive income and its components. The adoption of this
Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity.
Statement 130 requires unrealized gains or losses on the Company's marketable
securities to be included in other comprehensive income. Prior to adoption of
Statement 130 unrealized gains and losses were reported seperately in
shareholders' equity. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the requirements of Statement 130.

During the first quarter of 1998 and 1997, total comprehensive income amounted
to $13,748,000 and $10,024,000.


Note J - Subsequent Events

On April 21, 1998, the Company declared a dividend of $0.545 per share payable
on May 20, 1998 to shareholders of record on May 5, 1998. The dividend relates

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

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

At March 31, 1998, the Company's net real estate investments totaled
approximately $810,117,000, which included 54 skilled nursing facilities, 120
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 March 31, 1998, the Company had shareholders' equity of $497,101,000 and a
total outstanding debt balance of $319,650,000, which represents a debt to
equity ratio of 0.64 to 1.0.

In March 1998, the Company completed the sale of $100 million of 7.625% Senior
Unsecured Notes due March 15, 2008.

In March 1998, the Company issued 913,242 shares of Common Stock, $1.00 par
value per share, at the price of $27.375 per share, which generated net proceeds
to the Company of $23,721,000.

During the three months ended March 31, 1998, the proceeds derived from the
Company's capital raising activities were used to invest in additional health
care properties and reduce bank debt under the Company's revolving lines of
credit arrangements.

As of March 31, 1998, the Company has effective shelf registrations on file with
the Securities and Exchange Commission under which the Company may issue up to
$516,269,000 of securities including debt, convertible debt, common and
preferred stock. The Company anticipates issuing securities under such shelf
registrations to invest in additional health care facilities and to repay
borrowings under the Company's line of credit arrangements.

As of March 31, 1998, the Company had approximately $256,702,000 in unfunded
commitments. Under the Company's line of credit arrangements, available funding
totaled $136,000,000, subject to compliance with the terms and conditions
of the line of credit arrangements. 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 March 31, 1998 were $21,226,000 as compared
with $16,569,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1997. Revenue growth
resulted primarily from increased interest income of $1,306,000, increased
operating lease income of $2,681,000 and increased loan and commitment fees of
$642,000 as a result of additional real estate investments made during the past
twelve months.

Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1998 totaled $7,817,000, an
increase of $1,074,000 from expenses of $6,743,000 for the same period in 1997.
The increase in total expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 1998
was related to an increase in interest expense, an additional expense
associated with the provision for depreciation and an increase in general and
administrative expenses.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 1998 was $4,240,000 as
compared to $4,011,000 for the same period in 1997. The increase in the 1998
period was primarily due to the issuance of $80,000,000 Senior Notes in April
1997 and the issuance of $100,000,000 Senior Notes in March 1998. The increase
in the 1998 period was offset by the amount of capitalized interest recorded
during the first three months of 1998.

-10-
11




The Company capitalizes certain interest costs associated with funds used to
finance the construction of properties owned directly by the Company. The amount
capitalized is based upon the borrowings outstanding during the construction
period using the rate of interest which approximates the Company's cost of
financing. The Company's interest expense is reduced by the amount capitalized.
Capitalized interest for the three month period in 1998 totaled $1,226,000, as
compared with $247,000 for the same period in 1997.

The provision for depreciation for the three month period ended March 31, 1998
totaled $1,870,000, an increase of $685,000 over the comparable period in 1997
as a result of additional investments in properties owned directly by the
Company.

General and administrative expense for the three month period ended March 31,
1998 totaled $1,381,000, as compared with $1,180,000 for the same period in
1997. The expenses for the three month period in 1998 were 6.51% of revenues as
compared with 7.12% for the same period in 1997.

As a result of the various factors mentioned above, net income for the three
month period ended March 31, 1998 was $13,409,000, or $0.54 per diluted share,
as compared with $9,826,000, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the comparable
period in 1997.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

During the past three years, inflation has not significantly affected the
earnings of the Company because of the moderate inflation rate. Additionally,
earnings of the Company are primarily long-term investments with fixed interest
rates. These investments are mainly financed with a combination of equity,
senior notes and borrowings under the revolving lines of credit. During
inflationary periods, which generally are accompanied by rising interest rates,
the Company's ability to grow may be adversely affected because the yield on new
investments may increase at a slower rate than new borrowing costs. Presuming
the current inflation rate remains moderate and long-term interest rates do not
increase significantly, the Company believes that equity and debt financing will
continue to be available.

OTHER INFORMATION

This document and supporting schedules may contain "forward-looking" statements
as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties,
which may cause the Company's actual results in the future to differ materially
from expected results. These risks and uncertainties include, among others,
competition in the financing of health care facilities, the availability of
capital, and regulatory and other changes in the health care sector, as
described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company has assessed its current computer software for proper functioning
with respect in dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The year 2000 issue and
related costs are not expected to have a material impact on the operations of
the Company.
