The company reported net patient revenues of $6.2 million for the three months ended Sept. 30, 1994 as compared with $7.7 million for the comparable three month period of the prior year. The company had a net loss of $13.6 million or $.83 per share for the three months ended Sept. 30, 1994.

The net loss for the three months ended Sept. 30, 1993 was $1.0 million or $.06 per share.

The company reported net patient revenues of $19.7 million for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 1994 as compared with $22.8 million for the comparable nine month period of the prior year. The company had a net loss of $14.7 million or $.90 per share for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 1994. The net loss for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 1993 was $2.0 million or $.11 per share.

The decrease in patient revenues was primarily attributable to a decrease in the number of patients treated at the company's existing radiation therapy centers and lower reimbursements due to a higher proportion of treatments to patients whose reimbursements were provided by managed care payors or government sponsored programs.

A substantial portion of the decrease in the number of patients treated can be attributed to physician turnover at various centers.

Included in the company's loss for the three months ended Sept. 30, 1994 were charges of (a) $5.6 million for the write down of certain assets, including the write off of unamortized goodwill of one of the company's subsidiaries and write downs of property and equipment at two of the company's radiation therapy centers; (b) $400,000 for a reserve for costs associated with the potential closing of one of the company's radiation therapy centers; (c) $3.7 million for the write down of investment in affiliate incurred in connection with the company's agreement to sell Community Clinicians Leasing, L.P. to The Columbia Columbia, cities, United States
