The Company is currently evaluating potential acquisition opportunities in addition to those described above, and we continue to seek new opportunities to further our growth strategy. No assurance is made that any of these potential acquisition opportunities will be determined to be appropriate for us or that we will complete any of such acquisitions on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

Segments The Company reports its operations in three segments: SNF, ALF and Corporate & Other. The Company delivers services through wholly owned separate operating subsidiaries. The SNF and ALF segments provide services to individuals needing long-term care in a nursing home or assisted living setting and management of those facilities. The Corporate & Other segment engages in the management of facilities and accounting and IT services. We evaluate financial performance and allocate resources primarily based on segment operating income (loss).

Segment operating results excludes interest expense and other non-operating income and expenses. See Note 4 in the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" section of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.

Skilled Nursing Facilities We focus on two primary indicators in evaluating the financial performance in this segment. Those indicators are facility occupancy and patient mix.

Facility occupancy is important because higher occupancy generally leads to higher revenues. In addition, concentrating on increasing the number of Medicare covered admissions (the "patient mix") helps in increasing revenues.

We continue our work towards maximizing the number of patients covered by Medicare where, typically, our operating margins are higher. We include commercial insurance covered admissions that are reimbursed at the same level as those covered by Medicare in our Medicare utilization percentages and analysis.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenue in our skilled nursing segment increased approximately $ 20.2 million and $58.4 million, respectively, compared to September 30, 2011, as a result of acquisition growth. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, this segment had income from operations of $4.5 million and $13.0 million respectively, as a result of optimization of occupancy and quality mix as well as expense controls. We expect to continue to implement and refine strategies designed to sustain these goals. Total assets increased $63.9 million due to acquisitions made since September 30, 2011 and other building improvements.

(2) ADC is the Average Daily Census 28 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents (3) PPD is the Per Patient Day equivalent Assisted Living Facilities For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, revenue in our ALF segment increased approximately $ 0.9 million and $ 2.8 million, respectively, compared to September 30, 2011 as a result of increased revenue from acquisitions, an annual increase in rates charged to privately paying residents and increasing occupancy. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, this segment had income from operations of approximately $0.7 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Total assets increased $ 7.7 million primarily due to acquisitions since September 30, 2011 and other building improvements made during the last twelve months.

Average Occupancy Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 2011 85.1 % 77.5 % Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 2011 83.4 % 75.9 % Residents of our assisted living facilities rely on their personal investments and wealth to pay for their stay. Although many of the risks still remain, such as declines in market values of investments, depressed market for the sale of private homes, and adult children caring for their elderly at home, we have seen an increase in census.

In October 2012, the Company entered into a an Agreement of Sale pursuant to which the Company may sell ALFs in Ohio (the "Ohio ALFs"). Management expects the sale to close on or before December 31, 2012. We estimate the cash proceeds from the sale will be approximately $6.7 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Ohio ALF's had revenues of approximately $6.8 million and operating income of approximately $1.7 million. At September 30, 2012, the Ohio ALFs had approximately $15.4 million in assets that will likely be sold and $12.6 million in debt that will likely be extinguished as a result of the sale.

Corporate & Other We manage three skilled nursing facilities and one independent living campus for third party owners under management agreements that either are for a fixed monthly fee or for a percentage of revenue generated by the managed facility.

Depending on the type of management agreement, our revenues increase annually according to inflationary adjustments stipulated in our management agreements or they increase as the facility's revenue increases for the management agreements that are based on a percentage of revenue. This segment includes our corporate overhead expenses, which are made up of salaries of our senior management team members and various other corporate expenses, including, but not limited to, corporate office operating expenses, audit fees, legal fees and board activities. Additionally, non-cash charges for compensation expense related to warrants, restricted stock and stock options are included in corporate overhead. We do not allocate these expenses to the divisions or separate them from the management business for management review purposes.

Revenue in our SNF segment increased approximately $20.2 million when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, primarily as a result of additional facilities acquired since September 2011. This segment had net income from operations of approximately $4.5 million which is $2.2 million higher compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011 as a result of higher revenue due to acquisitions and improved reimbursement. We are seeking to increase facility occupancy and to increase the number of patients covered by Medicare. We seek to continue to implement and refine strategies designed to achieve these goals.

Revenue in our ALF segment increased approximately $0.9 million when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, as a result of increased census and levels of care as well as the addition of one new facility in 2012 and one new facility in the fourth quarter of 2011. This segment had income from operations of $0.7 million which is $0.3 million more than the same period in 2011 from an annual increase in rates charged to residents of the facilities.

Management Revenue - For the periods presented, management revenues (net of eliminations) increased $0.1 million, or 30%, as a result of a net increase of one managed facility.

Cost of Services -For the periods presented, cost of services was approximately $49.2 million or 80% of patient care revenue compared to $32.6 million or 81% of patient care revenue for the same period a year ago. This increase in overall cost is the result of numerous acquisitions over the past 12 months.

General and Administrative - For the three months ended September 30, 2012, general and administrative expenses were approximately $4.3 million in 2012 compared to $3.3 million in 2011, an increase of $1.0 million, or 32 %. As a percent of total revenues, general and administration expenses were approximately 7.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to 8.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Our performance-based incentive expense increased by $0.5 million reflecting the improvement in the Company's financial results. Wage and other employee related costs increased $0.2 million as a result of additional staffing needed to support the growth in operations. Investor relations expenses increased by of approximately $0.1 million. Datacenter cost has increased by $0.2 million as a result of outsourcing our IT department.

Facility Rent Expense - For the periods presented, lease expenses increased $0.1 million due to annual increases and the addition of the one new leased facility in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Depreciation and Amortization - For the periods presented, depreciation and amortization increased $1.3 million. The depreciation increase is directly related to acquisition activity that was not included in the 2011 results as it occurred in later periods. In addition, the acquisitions resulted in intangibles that are being amortized during the period.

Interest Expense, net - For the periods presented, interest expense, net increased $1.8 million, or 80%. We have entered into numerous debt instruments in relation to our growth strategy for the acquisition of the facilities which began in the third quarter of 2010. In addition, several of the arrangements are short term in nature resulting in higher interest rates than previously experienced and an increase in the amortization of deferred loan costs associated with the new debt agreements.

Acquisition Costs, net of Gains - For the three months ended September 30, 2012, acquisition costs, net of gains was an expense of $0.3 million, compared to $1.1 million for the comparative period. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the total acquisition costs were legal fees directly related to acquisitions and other costs incurred on potential future acquisitions.

Derivative Gain/Loss - For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the derivative loss was $2.1 million, compared to a gain of $4.7 million for the same period in 2011. The derivative results from the subordinated notes issued in the third quarter of 2010. The expense associated with the derivative increases as the stock price climbs, and conversely decreases as the stock price declines. The price of the common stock increased during the three-month period ended September 30, 2012, from June 30, 2012 to September 30, 2012.

Comparison for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 Patient Care Revenues - For the periods presented, total patient care revenues increased $61.2 million, or 59%.

Revenue in our SNF segment increased approximately $58.4 million when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, primarily as a result of additional facilities acquired since September, 2011. This segment had net income from operations of $13.0 million which is $8.5 million higher compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011 as a result of higher revenue due to acquisitions and improved reimbursement. We are seeking to increase facility occupancy and to increase the number of patients covered by Medicare. We seek to continue to implement and refine strategies designed to achieve these goals.

30 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Revenue in our ALF segment increased approximately $2.8 million when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as a result one new facility in 2012 and one new facility in the fourth quarter of 2011. This segment had income from operations of $2.0 million which is $1.0 million more than the same period in 2011.

Management Revenue - For the periods presented, management revenues (net of eliminations) decreased $0.2 million, or 12%, as a result of fewer managed facilities.

Cost of Services -For the periods presented, cost of services was approximately $131.5 million or 79% of patient care revenue compared to $84.9 million or 81% of patient care revenue for the same period a year ago. This increase in overall cost is the result of numerous acquisitions over the past 12 months. The improvement as a percent of patient care revenue reflects the implementation of consolidated purchasing programs and other cost reduction efforts. In 2012, the Company eliminated the ability for employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation beyond the current calendar year. As a result, vacation time previously accumulated must be used by the employee by December 31, 2012 or it will be forfeited. Management has estimated the potential forfeitures and has adjusted the vacation accrual accordingly.

General and Administrative - For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, general and administrative expenses were approximately $13.2 million in 2012 compared to $9.4 million in 2011, an increase of $3.8 million, or 41%.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, there was a $0.4 million non-cash settlement gain as a result of the litigation settlement partially offset by other expenses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates There have been no significant changes during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and use of estimates in our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operation contained in the Annual Report.

31 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Liquidity and Capital Resources Overview Liquidity is the measure of the Company's ability to have adequate cash or access to cash at all times in order to meet financial obligations when due, as well as to fund corporate expansion and other activities. Historically, the Company has met its liquidity requirements through a combination of net cash flow from operations, debt from third party lenders and issuances of other debt and equity securities.

We have negative working capital of approximately $2.3 million at September 30, 2012. Our ability to sustain profitable operations is dependent on continued growth in revenues and controlling costs. Approximately $3.0 million of the negative working capital ratio is related to short term debt under a VIE which the Company does not guarantee. (See Note 12 in the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" section of Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

During the next twelve months, the Company believes it will require additional financing to satisfy its financial obligations and implement its expansion strategy. The Company is currently exploring several financing alternatives and may seek to raise additional capital through the sale of additional debt or equity securities, although there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital through the issuance of debt or equity securities on terms acceptable to it, or at all. If the Company is unable to secure such additional financing, then the Company may be required to restructure its outstanding indebtedness and delay or modify its expansion plans.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization from continuing operations ("Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations") and adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and Rent from continuing operations ("Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations") are measures of operating performance that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Company believes these non-GAAP measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results and the accompanying quantitative reconciliations to net income (loss) (the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures), provide a more complete understanding of factors or trends affecting our business.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income, income from operations or cash flows provided by, or used in, operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted EBITDAR from continuing operations are used by management to focus on operating performance and management without mixing in items of income and expense that relate to the financing and capitalization of the business, fixed rent or lease payments of facilities, derivative loss or gain, and certain 32 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents acquisition related charges.

The Company believes these measures are useful to investors in evaluating the Company's performance, results of operations and financial position for the following reasons: † They are helpful in identifying trends in the Company's day-to-day performance because the items excluded have little or no significance to the Company's day-to-day operations; † They provide an assessment of controllable expenses and afford management the ability to make decisions which are expected to facilitate meeting current financial goals as well as achieve optimal financial performance; and † They are an indication to determine whether or not adjustments to current spending decisions are needed.

AdCare believes that the use of the measures provides a meaningful and consistent comparison of the Company's underlying business between periods by eliminating certain items required by GAAP, which have little or no significance in the Company's day-to-day operations.
