CENTRAL PARKING CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of 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 necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1996. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended September 30, 1995 (included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K). INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING On October 10, 1995, the Company completed an initial public offering of common stock in which 1,243,000 shares were sold by the Company for net proceeds of $20.0 million. In addition, 1,837,000 shares of common stock were sold by certain shareholders of the Company. THREE FOR TWO STOCK SPLIT On February 21, 1996, the Board of Directors approved a three-for- two stock split payable to shareholders of record as of March 4, 1996. The stock split was distributed on March 19, 1996 resulting in the net issuance of 5,805,816 new shares. Actual shares outstanding after the split were 17,417,481. All share and per share amounts in this report have been adjusted to reflect the stock split, unless otherwise noted. INCOME PER SHARE Income per share has been computed by dividing net income for each period by the weighted average number of shares and share equivalents outstanding during the applicable period. Fully diluted per share data is not presented since the effect would dilute earnings per share by less than three percent (3%) ITEM 2. 	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL 			CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 Parking revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased to $28.8 million from $24.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1995, an increase of $4.4 million or 17.9%. The increase resulted primarily from the net addition of 64 leased and 6 owned locations over the same quarter last year as well as a combination of rate increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities. Revenues from foreign operations decreased to $3.7 million from $4.3 million. The decrease in foreign revenues was primarily a result of the termination of a leased location net of added locations. Management contract revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 increased to $8.7 million from $7.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1995, an increase of $755 thousand or 9.5%. The increase resulted from a net increase in the number of management contracts from 713 to 751. Cost of parking in fiscal third quarter 1996 increased to $25.7 million from $22.7 million in fiscal third quarter 1995, an increase of $3.0 million, or 13.5%. Rent amounted to $1.7 million of the increase which was primarily a result of new locations and increased percentage rent on existing locations. Additionally, payroll expense represented $1.3 million of the increase; principally as a result of a net increase in the number of new locations and payroll increases on existing payroll. Cost of parking as a percentage of parking revenue decreased to 89.3% in fiscal third quarter 1996 from 92.7%. The decrease in the cost of parking is a combination of the spreading of fixed costs over a larger revenue base from existing locations and the elimination of two large leases which amounted to $1.5 million which had high costs of parking percentages. Cost of management contracts in fiscal third quarter 1996 decreased to $2.4 million from $2.5 million for the third fiscal quarter in 1995, a decrease of $99 thousand or 4%. The decrease in cost of management contract expense is primarily attributable to insurance claims on management contracts being $210 thousand less than the same period in the prior quarter net of other cost increases. General and administrative expenses increased to $4.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $3.7 million in fiscal third quarter 1995, an increase of $800 thousand or 21.6%. This increase is primarily attributable to increased incentive compensation resulting from increased profits and the start-up costs associated with opening new locations and joint ventures. General and administrative expenses were, as a percentage of revenues, 12.0% for the third quarter of 1996, compared to 11.5%, an increase of .5%. The increase in the percentage of revenues was primarily a result of start-up costs of new locations and joint ventures. Interest income increased to $566 thousand for the third quarter of fiscal 1996, from $441 thousand in the third quarter of fiscal 1995, an increase of $125 thousand or 28.3% percent. The increase in interest income is a result of additional investments generated from proceeds of $20.0 million received from the IPO on October 10, 1995 and cash flow generated from operations net of capital expenditures. Equity in partnership and joint venture earnings increased for the three months ended June 30, 1996 to $233 thousand from $206 thousand for the same period in 1995. The increase in the joint venture earnings is primarily a result of the Mexican joint venture having a profit in 1996 of $31 thousand versus a loss in 1995 of $66 thousand. Income taxes increased to $2.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1996 from $1.5 million in the third fiscal quarter in 1995, an increase of $465 thousand or 31.1%. The tax rate for the 1996 quarter was 34.6% compared to 36.0% for the 1995 quarter. The decrease in the tax rate is attributable primarily to increasing interest income on tax exempt investments in 1996 when compared to the same period in the prior year. The trend of this tax rate decrease is not expected to continue in future periods. NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1995 Parking revenues for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 increased to $81.6 million from $70.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1995, an increase of $11.5 million or 16.3%. The increase resulted primarily from the net addition of 64 leased and 6 owned locations over the same period last year as well as a combination of rate increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities. Revenues from foreign operations decreased to $9.6 million from $12.6 million. The decrease in foreign revenues was a result of the termination of a lease location net of added locations. Management contract revenue for the nine months of fiscal 1996 increased to $24.9 million from $23.3 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1995, an increase of $1.6 million or 6.7%. The increase resulted from a net increase in the number of management contracts from 713 to 751. Cost of parking in fiscal nine months 1996 increased to $73.2 million from $64.0 million in the first nine months of 1995, an increase of $9.2 million, or 14.4%. Rent amounted to $5.1 million of the increase which was primarily a result of new locations and increased percentage rent on existing locations. Additionally, payroll expense represented $2.8 million of the increase, principally an increase in the number of net new locations, and payroll increases on existing payroll. The decrease in cost of parking as a percentage of revenue is primarily a result of spreading fixed costs over a broader revenue base and the loss of two large leases which had high cost of parking percentages. Cost of management contracts in fiscal nine months 1996 increased to $7.6 million from $7.4 million for the first nine months of 1995, an increase of $272 thousand or 3.7%. The increase in cost of management contract expense is attributable to the increased revenue generated on the addition of new contracts of this period versus the same period last year and a decrease in insurance claims on management contracts of $253 thousand. General and administrative expenses increased to $13.0 million in the first nine months of 1996 from $11.6 million in the first nine months of 1995, an increase of $1.4 million or 11.8%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased incentive compensation on increased profits and start-up costs associated with the opening of new city offices and joint ventures. General and administrative expenses were, as a percentage of revenues, 12.2% for the first nine months of 1996, compared to 12.5% for the first nine months of 1995, a reduction of .3%. The reduction in the revenue percentage was primarily a result of spreading of a number of fixed costs over a larger revenue base. Net gains on sales of property and equipment for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 increased to $1.2 million. For the same period in 1995, there was a gain of $13 thousand. The increased gain is primarily from the settlement of disputed property which was condemned in January, 1994. Equity in partnership and joint venture earnings for the nine months ended June 30, 1996 were $462 thousand compared to $300 thousand for the 1995 nine month period. The increase in the joint venture earnings is primarily a result of the Mexican joint venture having a profit in 1996 of $58 thousand versus a loss of $123 thousand in 1995. Interest income increased to $1.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1996, from $1.1 million in the first nine months of fiscal 1995, an increase of $601 thousand or 55.4%. The increase in interest income is a result of the investment of additional investments generated from the net proceeds of $20.0 million received from the IPO on October 10, 1995 and cash flow generated from operations, net of capital expenditures. Income taxes increased to $5.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1996 from $4.3 million in the first nine months of 1995, an increase of $1.3 million or 30.0%. The tax rate for the 1996 period was 34.7% compared to 36.0% for the 1995 period. The decrease in the tax rate is attributable primarily to increasing interest income on tax exempt investments in 1996. The trend of this tax rate decrease is not expected to continue. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the nine months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, the Company generated cash flows from operating activities of $15.5 million and $9.8 million, respectively. Additionally, in October, 1995 the Company generated $20.0 million from the proceeds from an initial public offering. During the first nine months of 1996, the Company purchased property, equipment and leasehold improvements of $15.9 million compared to $2.0 million in the first nine months of 1995. This trend is in line with the Company's objective to own or acquire more parking properties. The Company had cash, cash equivalents and non-current investments of $33.0 million, $14.5 million, and $19.4 million at June 30, 1996, September 30, 1995 and June 30, 1995, respectively. The increase in June 1996 is primarily from the proceeds from the aforementioned public offering. The Company has a $20.0 million unsecured line of credit which bears interest at variable interest rates at LIBOR plus 112 basis points. There have been no borrowings under the Credit Facility since its inception in April, 1996. PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 6.
