The divested operations were not material to the Company's revenues or operating income.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND - ------- FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- Overview - -------- Revenues of $1.5 billion for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 were 12% higher than the prior year period. First quarter operating income of $71.9 million was $11.7 million higher than the prior year period. Fiscal 1996 operating income includes other income of $2.9 million as described in note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements. Excluding the other income, operating income increased by 15% due to improved earnings in each business segment, including the positive impact in fiscal 1996 from the return of baseball and hockey. As a result, the Company's operating income margin, before other income, increased to 4.5% in fiscal 1996 from 4.4% in fiscal 1995. First quarter interest expense increased $4.8 million, or 19%, from the comparable prior year period due primarily to increased debt levels to finance acquisitions. Segment Results - --------------- Revenues - Food, Leisure and Support Services segment revenues increased 12% due to new accounts and increased volume at both domestic and international food businesses, acquisitions, and the return of baseball and hockey. Uniform Services segment revenues increased 18% due to increased volume in uniform rental operations plus the impact of recent acquisitions, partially offset by the divestiture discussed in note 2. Health & Education segment revenues increased 2% due primarily to enrollment growth and pricing at Children's World. Distributive segment revenues increased 21% due primarily to recent acquisitions. Operating Income, Before Other Income - Food, Leisure and Support Services segment operating income increased 30% due to increased revenues in the food business and the return of baseball and hockey. Uniform Services segment operating income was about equal to last year due to several factors. Income related to higher revenue was offset by costs associated with the acquisition in the uniform rental business and higher operating and marketing costs in the direct marketing business. The impact on operating income from the acquisition of the direct marketer of public safety clothing and equipment was offset by the divestiture described in note 2. Health & Education segment operating income increased 32% due to revenue related increases at Children's World and cost improvements at Spectrum Healthcare Services. Distributive segment operating income increased 8% due to acquisitions, partially offset by increased operating expenses. FINANCIAL CONDITION - ------------------- The Company's indebtedness increased $15 million in the first three months of fiscal 1996, principally to finance seasonal working capital needs which was partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of a division (see note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). In January 1996, the Company redeemed its $80 million 8-1/4% senior note and issued a $125 million 6.79% note due January 2003, with annual principal repayments of $25 million beginning January 1999 (see note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The Company currently has approximately $350 million of unused credit availability under its $1 billion revolving credit facility, which management believes, along with cash flows from operations, is sufficient to fund operating requirements.
