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 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 intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended September 30, 1997 (included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K). Certain items have been restated to conform to current year presentation. Stock Split On November 21, 1997, the Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split payable to shareholders of record as of December 5, 1997. The stock split was distributed on December 12, 1997, resulting in the net issuance of 8,771,363 new shares. All shares and per share amounts in this report have been adjusted to reflect the stock split. Earnings Per Share In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share". Statement 128 replaced the previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Earnings per share for all periods presented have been calculated and presented in accordance with SFAS No. 128. The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share: Nine Months Ended Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 June 30,1997 Income Common Per-Share Income Common Per-Share Available Shares Amount Available Shares Amount ($000's) (000's) ($000's) (000's) Basic earnings per share $19,918 27,373 $0.73 $13,590 25,988 $0.52 Effect of dilutive stock and options: Stock option plan 247 (0.01) 110 Restricted stock plan 151 145 Deferred stock unit plan 12 -- Employee stock purchase plan 55 60 Diluted earnings per share $19,918 27,838 $0.72 $13,590 26,303 $0.52 Page 6 of 19 7 Three Months Ended Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 June 30,1997 Income Common Per-Share Income Common Per-Share Available Shares Amount Available Shares Amount ($000's) (000's) ($000's) (000's) Basic earnings per share $ 7,948 29,228 $0.27 $ 5,275 25,987 $0.20 Effect of dilutive stock and options: Stock option plan 256 99 Restricted stock plan 152 143 Deferred stock unit plan 12 -- Employee stock purchase plan 46 72 Diluted earnings per share $ 7,948 29,694 $0.27 $ 5,275 26,301 $0.20 Weighted average common shares used for the computation of basic earnings per share excludes certain common shares issued pursuant to the Company's restricted stock plan because under the related deferred compensation agreement the officer forfeits such shares if he voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company. The effect of the conversion of the company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of the subsidiary trust has not been included in the diluted earnings per share calculation since such securities are anti-dilutive. At June 30, 1998, such securities were convertible into 2,000,000 shares of common stock. Acquisitions Turner Parking On April 1, 1998, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Turner Parking Systems, Inc, ("Turner") a privately-held parking company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, for $3.8 million, including $3.0 million in cash and $800 thousand (16,842 shares) in common stock of the Company. The Company financed the cash portion of the Turner purchase with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Turner have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to Turner's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $3.7 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years. Turner operates 34 parking facilities in Texas, Florida, California, Georgia and Washington D.C. Central Parking System of Louisiana, Inc. The Company has historically owned 50% of Central Parking System of Louisiana, Inc. ("CPS of LA") and on March 30, 1998 purchased the remaining 50% from Property Service Corporation for $2.4 million in common stock (52,631 shares). CPS of LA manages and operates leased parking facilities, manages and operates parking facilities owned or leased by other parties, and provides financial and other advisory services. The Company's facilities are located in Louisiana. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to CPS of LA's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. Since the date of acquisition, the results of operations have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. Prior to the acquisition, results of operation have been accounted for on the Company's books under the equity method as an investment. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $2.3 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Kinney System Holding, Corp. On February 12, 1998, the Company purchased Kinney System Holding Corp. ("Kinney"), a privately-held parking company headquartered in New York City, for $208.8 million, including $171.8 million in cash and other Page 7 of 19 8 consideration, and $37.0 million (882,422 shares) in common stock of the Company. Kinney operated 403 parking facilities at the date of acquisition, including facilities in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. In connection with this transaction, the Company assumed $8.1 million in capitalized leases, refinanced $24.2 million in existing Kinney debt and assumed $4.6 million of Kinney debt. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the outcome of an independent evaluation of Kinney's February 12, 1998 balance sheet. The Company financed the Kinney acquisition with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Kinney have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The preliminary purchase price has been allocated to Kinney's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the preliminary purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $186.3 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 30 years. Purchase price adjustments for Kinney have not been finalized. Diplomat Parking Corporation On October 1, 1997, the Company purchased Diplomat Parking Corporation ("Diplomat") for $21.7 million, which was financed through a $12.3 million draw on a revolving credit facility and an $8.2 million note to the sellers, that was subsequently paid, at an interest rate of 5%. The note payment was financed through a draw on the revolving credit facility. Diplomat operates 164 parking facilities, located primarily in Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Diplomat have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to Diplomat's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $20.1 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. Civic Parking, L.L.C. On December 31, 1996, the Company purchased for cash, Civic Parking L.L.C. ("Civic Parking"), a limited liability company, which owns four parking garages in St. Louis: Kiener East, Kiener West, Stadium East and Stadium West. The four garages, which had previously been operated by the Company under management agreements, have a total of 7,464 parking spaces. The purchase price was approximately $91.0 million, which was financed through working capital and a draw of $67.2 million on the Company's revolving credit facility. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method. The estimated fair value of the garages at the date of the acquisition was equal to the purchase price and, accordingly, management has allocated the purchase price to the land and buildings acquired. On April 16, 1997, the Company sold 50% of the membership units of Civic Parking to an affiliate of Equity Capital Holdings, L.L.C. for $46.0 million in cash. In the allocation of the purchase price, the Company assigned $45.8 million to the membership units that were sold; consisting of an estimated sale price of $46.0 million and estimated net cash inflows for the holding period of $638 thousand offset by interest on incremental debt during the holding period of $801 thousand. The membership units retained by the Company have been accounted for in the accompanying financial statements under the equity method. On March 17, 1998, Civic Parking obtained financing with a financial institution for $60 million. The Company received net proceeds of $30.3 million from this transaction which reduced the Company's investment in partnerships and joint ventures. The proceeds from the refinancing were used to pay down the New Credit Facility mentioned below. The Company will continue to operate these garages pursuant to a lease and operating agreement with Civic Parking. Pro Forma Information The following unaudited consolidated pro forma condensed results of operations, give effect to the acquisition of Kinney, CPS of LA, and Turner as if such transactions had occurred at October 1, 1997, as follows (in thousands except for earnings per share): Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 -------------- Total revenues $325,412 Earnings before income tax 30,347 Net earnings 17,995 Basic earnings per common share $ 0.65 Diluted earnings per common share $ 0.64 Page 8 of 19 9 The foregoing unaudited proforma amounts are based upon certain assumptions and estimates, including, but not limited to, the recognition of estimated cost savings related to general and administrative expenses to be eliminated prospectively in connection with the Kinney acquisition, interest expense on debt incurred to finance the acquisition and amortization of goodwill over 30 years for Kinney, 5 years for Louisiana, and 10 years for Turner. The unaudited proforma amounts do not necessarily represent the results, which would have occurred if the acquisition had taken place on the basis assumed above, nor are they indicative of the results of future combined operations. Long Term Debt On February 11, 1998, the Company established a new credit facility (the "New Credit Facility") providing for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, consisting of a five-year $200 million revolving credit facility, including a sub-limit of $25 million for standby letters of credit, and a $100 million term loan. The New Credit Facility bears interest until June 30, 1998 at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.25%. On June 30, 1998 the interest rate on the New Credit Facility and the commitment fee on the unused portion reverted to a grid pricing based upon the achievement of various financial ratios. The New Credit Facility contains certain covenants including those that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, restrict further indebtedness, and limit the amount of dividends payable. On March 18, 1998, the Company completed offerings of equity and convertible trust issued preferred securities, from which the Company obtained $195.3 million in net proceeds. The Company repaid and terminated the $100 million term loan with proceeds from these offerings. The remaining $95.3 million in proceeds was applied to reduce the outstanding balance under the $200 million revolving credit facility. The amount outstanding under the Company's New Credit Facility as of June 30, 1998 is $53.5 million, at an interest rate of 7.0%. The Company used borrowings under the New Credit Facility to replace the Company's prior revolving credit facility and to finance the Kinney and Turner acquisitions. The prior credit facility, which was unsecured, was scheduled to expire January 31, 2000. Credit available under the prior facility amounted to $120 million. The amount outstanding under the Company's prior credit facility was $70.8 million, which is reflected as long term debt on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1997. Such debt had a 7.1% weighted average interest rate for the period from December 31, 1996 to September 30, 1997, during which the Company had debt outstanding. At June 30, 1997, the Company had $78.3 million outstanding under its credit facilities at an interest rate of 7.1%. The weighted average balance outstanding was $227.4 million during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 with a weighted average interest rate of 7.2%. Convertible Trust Issued Preferred Securities and Equity Offerings On March 18, 1998, the Company completed an offering of 2,137,500 shares of common stock. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of $89.3 million. Concurrent with the common stock offering, the Company created Central Parking Finance Trust ("Trust") which completed a private placement of 4,400,000 shares at $25.00 per share of 5.25% convertible trust issued preferred securities ("Preferred Securities") pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Preferred Securities represent preferred undivided beneficial interests in the assets of Central Parking Finance Trust, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company owns all of the common securities of the Trust. The Trust exists for the sole purpose of issuing the Preferred Securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of 5.25% Convertible Subordinated Debentures ("Convertible Debentures") of the Company due 2028. The net proceeds to the Company from the Preferred Securities private placement were $106.0 million. Each Preferred Security is entitled to receive cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 5.25% (or $1.312 per share) and will be convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of Company common stock at a conversion rate of 0.4545 shares of Company common stock for each Preferred Security (equivalent to $55.00 per share of Company common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Preferred Securities do not have a stated maturity date but are subject to mandatory redemption upon the repayment of the Convertible Debentures at their stated maturity (April 1, 2028) or upon acceleration or earlier repayment of the Convertible Debentures. The proceeds of the equity and preferred security offerings were used to repay indebtedness. Page 9 of 19 10 The Company's consolidated balance sheets reflect the Preferred Securities of the Trust as company-obligated mandatorily redeemable convertible securities of subsidiary whose sole assets are convertible subordinated debentures of the Company. Subsequent Events On July 1, 1998, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Sterling Parking, Inc, ("Sterling") a privately-held parking company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, for $4.48 million, including $2.24 million in cash and $2.24 million (54,358 shares) in common stock of the Company. The Company financed the cash portion of the Sterling purchase with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described above. Sterling operates 31 parking facilities in Georgia, Florida, Virginia, California, and Kentucky. Page 10 of 19 11 Item 2.

The Company operates parking facilities under three types of arrangements: - - Management contracts The Company's responsibilities under a management contract as a facility manager include hiring, training, and staffing parking personnel, and providing collections, accounting, record keeping, insurance, and facility marketing services. In general, the Company is not responsible for structural, mechanical, or electrical maintenance or repairs, or providing security or guard services. The Company generally receives a base monthly fee for managing these facilities plus fees for ancillary services such as insurance, accounting, equipment leasing, and consulting and often receives a percentage of facility revenues above a base amount. Under the Company's typical management contract, the facility owner pays a minimum management fee and operating expenses such as taxes, license and permit fees, insurance, payroll and accounts receivable processing, and wages of personnel assigned to the facility. In addition, the facility owner also pays for maintenance, repair costs, and capital improvements. The typical management contract is for a term of one to three years and is renewable, typically for successive one-year terms. - - Lease contracts In contrast to management contracts, lease arrangements are typically for terms of three to ten years, with a renewal term, and provide for a contractually established payment for the facility owner, regardless of operating earnings of the parking facility. The Company's rent is generally a flat annual amount, a percentage of gross revenues, or a combination thereof. Under its leases, the Company is responsible for all facets of the parking operations, including utilities and ordinary and routine maintenance, but is generally not responsible for major maintenance, repair, or property taxes. The leased facilities require a longer commitment and a larger capital investment by the Company than managed facilities, but provides a more stable source of revenue and a greater opportunity for long term revenue growth. - - Facility ownership Ownership of parking facilities, either independently or through joint ventures, typically requires a larger capital investment than managed or leased facilities, but provides maximum control over the operation of the parking facility. All owned facility revenues flow directly to the Company. Additionally, ownership provides the potential for realizing capital gains from the appreciation of the value of underlying real estate. The Company typically targets ownership opportunities in cities in which it currently operates, focusing on unrelated sites that are being used as parking facilities. Page 11 of 19 12 The Company also seeks joint venture partners who are established local or regional developers pursuing financing alternatives for development projects. Joint ventures typically involve a development where the parking facility is a part of a larger multi-use project, allowing the Company's joint venture partners to benefit from a capital infusion to the project. Joint ventures offer the revenue growth potential of ownership with a partial reduction in capital requirements. Three Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1997 Parking revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 increased to $96.5 million from $49.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of $47.3 million, or 96.1%. Of the $47.3 million increase, $38.4 million, or 81.3% of the increase, resulted from the acquisitions of Diplomat, Kinney, and Turner's 322 leased and owned locations. The remaining increase of $8.9 million, or 18.7%, resulted from the net addition of 39 leased and 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 increased to $5.9 million from $5.3 million, an increase of $600 thousand or 12.0%. The increase in foreign revenues was a result of a combination of the addition of 53 leased locations as well as rate increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities. Management contract revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 increased to $15.7 million from $10.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of $4.9 million or 45.2%. Of the $4.9 million increase, $2.4 million, or 48.5% of the increase, resulted from the addition of 303 management locations through the acquisitions of Diplomat, Kinney, and Turner. The remaining increase of $2.5 million, or 51.5% of the total increase, is attributed to the net addition of 102 management contracts and increased management fees on existing locations. Cost of parking in fiscal third quarter 1998 increased to $81.8 million from $43.1 million in fiscal third quarter 1997, an increase of $38.7 million or 89.7%. Rent expense increased $25.5 million and payroll increased $6.4 million, principally as a result of new locations from acquisitions and increases on existing locations. Cost of parking as a percentage of parking revenues, decreased to 84.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 1998 from 87.7% in fiscal third quarter 1997. This decrease of 290 basis points was attributable predominantly to the spreading of a number of fixed costs, over a larger revenue base. Cost of management contracts in fiscal third quarter 1998 increased to $4.2 million from $3.5 million in the comparable period in 1997, an increase of $700 thousand or 21.5%. The increase in cost reflects higher insurance claims and employment taxes associated with the increase in the number of managed facilities. Cost of management contracts as a percentage of management contract revenue decreased to 26.8% for the third fiscal quarter 1998 from 32.0% for the same period last year. The decrease as a percentage of management contract revenue was attributable to the spreading of fixed costs over a larger revenue base. General and administrative expenses increased to $9.7 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 from $5.4 million in fiscal third quarter 1997, an increase of $4.3 million or 80.3%. The increase is primarily attributable to the purchase of Kinney, Diplomat, and Turner and the increased administrative activities associated with those acquisitions, as well as increased incentive compensation resulting from increased profits and start-up costs associated with the opening of new locations. General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, were 8.7% for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to 9.0% for the third quarter of fiscal 1997, a decrease of 30 basis points. The decrease was attributable to spreading fixed expenses over a broader base. Goodwill and non-compete amortization for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 increased to $2.6 million from $332 thousand in fiscal third quarter 1997, an increase of $2.2 million, as a result of the Diplomat, Kinney, and Turner acquisitions. Interest income increased to $785 thousand for the third quarter of fiscal 1998, from $341 thousand in the third quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of $444 thousand. The increase in interest income is a result of higher investment balances outstanding during the quarter and increased notes receivable balances. Interest expense decreased to $1.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 from $1.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 1997. The decrease in interest expense was attributable to the decrease in indebtedness under the Company's credit facilities. The weighted average balance outstanding under such credit facilities was $53.4 million during the quarter ended June 30, 1998, at a weighted average interest rate of 7.0%. The weighted average balance outstanding was $82.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 1997, at an average interest rate of 7.2%. Additionally, the Company recorded dividends Page 12 of 19 13 on Company-obligated mandatorily redeemable convertible securities of a subsidiary trust in the amount of $1.5 million during the quarter ended June 30, 1998. Income taxes increased to $5.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 1998 from $3.0 million in the third fiscal quarter in 1997, an increase of $2.0 million or 67.7%. The effective tax rate for the fiscal 1998 quarter was 38.5% compared to 36.0% for the 1997 quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate is attributable to a combination of decreasing interest income on tax-exempt investments, an increase in non-tax deductible goodwill amortization and an increase in effective state income tax rates. Nine Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 1997 Parking revenues for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 increased to $232.0 million from $127.0 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase of $105.0 million, or 82.7%. Of the $105.0 million increase, $82.2 million, or 78.3% of the increase, resulted from the acquisition of Square Industries, Inc. ("Square"), Car Park Corporation ("Car Park"), Diplomat, Kinney, and Turner's 398 leased and owned locations. The remaining increase of $22.8 million, or 21.7%, is a result of the net addition of 142 leased and 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 increased to $17.0 million from $13.4 million, an increase of $3.6 million or 26.5%. The increase in foreign revenues was a result of a combination of the addition of 53 leased locations as well as rate increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities. Management contract revenues for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 increased to $42.6 million from $30.4 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase of $12.2 million or 40.2%. Of the $12.2 million increase, $5.4 million, or 44.4%, resulted from the addition of 343 management locations through the acquisitions of Square, Turner, Car Park, Diplomat and Kinney. The remaining increase of $6.8 million, or 55.6%, is attributed to the net addition of 142 management contracts and increased management fees on existing locations. Cost of parking in the nine months ending June 30, 1998 increased to $199.6 million from $111.6 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase of $88.0 million or 78.9%. Rent expense increased $55.7 million and payroll increased $17.0 million, principally as a result of new locations from acquisitions and increases on existing locations. Cost of parking as a percentage of parking revenues, decreased to 86.1% in the nine months ending June 30, 1998 from 87.9% in the nine months ending June 30, 1997. This decrease of 180 basis points was attributable predominantly to greater economies of scale resulting from synergies realized from recent acquisitions. Cost of management contracts in the nine months ending June 30, 1998 increased to $11.3 million from $9.2 million in the comparable period in 1997, an increase of $2.1 million or 23.6%. The increase in cost reflects higher insurance claims and employment taxes associated with the increase in the number of managed facilities. General and administrative expenses increased to $24.3 million for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 from $16.1 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase of $8.2 million or 51.1%. The increase is primarily attributable to increased incentive compensation resulting from increased profits and start-up costs associated with the opening of new locations and joint ventures. General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of revenues, were 8.9% for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 compared to 10.2% for the nine months ending June 30, 1997, a decrease of 130 basis points. The decrease was attributable to spreading fixed expenses over a broader base and the implementation of bonus limits on certain key executives. Goodwill and non-compete amortization for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 increased to $4.6 million from $568 thousand in the nine months ended June 30, 1997, an increase of $4.0 million, as a result of the Square, Car Park, Kinney, Turner, and Diplomat acquisitions. Interest income increased to $1.9 million for the nine months ending June 30, 1998, from $1.2 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase in the amount of $700 thousand or 57.1%. The increase in interest income is a result of higher investment balances outstanding during the nine-month period and increased notes receivable balances. Interest expense increased to $6.2 million for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 from $2.9 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997. Of the $3.3 million increase, $2.7 million or 80.4% of the increase, is attributable to the indebtedness under the Company's credit facilities outstanding for nine months in fiscal period 1998 compared to six months in fiscal period 1997, the capitalization of interest on incremental debt related to the Civic acquisition and bank fees associated with the credit facilities. Page 13 of 19 14 The remaining increase is attributable to the debt assumed in the Kinney acquisition. The weighted average balance outstanding under the Company's credit facilities was $94.3 million during the nine months ended June 30, 1998, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.8%. For the fiscal period 1997, the weighted average balance outstanding was $97.8 million for the period during which the Company had debt outstanding, beginning December 31, 1996, at an average interest rate of 7.1%. Additionally, the Company recorded dividends on Company-obligated mandatorily redeemable convertible securities of a subsidiary trust in the amount of $1.7 million during the nine months ended June 30, 1998. Income taxes increased to $12.4 million for the nine months ending June 30, 1998 from $7.6 million in the nine months ending June 30, 1997, an increase of $4.8 million or 62.5%. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of the 1998 fiscal year was 38.4% compared to 36.0% for the same period in 1997. The increase in the effective tax rate is attributable to a combination of decreasing interest income on tax-exempt investments, an increase in non-tax deductible goodwill amortization and an increase in effective state income tax rates. Liquidity and Capital Resources During the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, the Company generated cash flow from operating activities of $37.5 million and $5.1 million, respectively, an increase of $32.4 million. The increase is primarily attributable to increased net earnings of $6.3 million, increased goodwill and non-compete amortization of $4.1 million, increased depreciation of $1.4 million, and increased changes in net operating assets and liabilities of $19.3 million. The Company utilized cash of $210.4 million, net of cash acquired, in the first nine months of fiscal 1998 for acquisitions (see Acquisitions) compared to $50.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 1997. The acquisitions were funded from credit facilities described herein. The Company purchased properties during the nine months ended June 30, 1998, and 1997 in the amounts of $21.4 million and $6.2 million, respectively. During the first nine months of the 1997 fiscal year, Civic Parking, which consists of four parking garages totaling approximately 7,500 parking spaces, was acquired for $91.0 million. Of the $91.0 million, $46.0 million was held for resale to a joint venture partner and $45.0 million was recorded as an investment in joint ventures. The purchase was funded partially through available cash and the drawing under a revolving credit facility in the amount of $67.2 million. In April 1997, the Company sold 50% of its investment in Civic Parking for $46.0 million. During the nine months ended June 30, 1998, the Company received net proceeds from an offering of 2,137,500 shares of common stock of $89.3 million. Concurrent with the common stock offering, the Company received net proceeds from a private placement of company-obligated mandatorily redeemable convertible securities of $106.0 million. At June 30, 1998, the Company had available $140.3 million under a new credit facility. See New Credit Facility discussion below. Acquisitions Turner Parking On April 1, 1998, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Turner Parking Systems, Inc, ("Turner") a privately-held parking company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, for $3.8 million, including $3.0 million in cash and $800 thousand (16,842 shares) in common stock of the Company. The Company financed the cash portion of the Turner purchase with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Turner have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to Turner's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $3.7 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 10 years. Turner operates 34 parking facilities in Texas, Florida, California, Georgia and Washington D.C. Central Parking System of Louisiana, Inc. The Company has historically owned 50% of Central Parking System of Louisiana, Inc. ("CPS of LA") and on March 30, 1998 purchased the remaining 50% from Property Service Corporation for $2.4 million in common stock (52,631 shares). CPS of LA manages and operates leased parking facilities, manages and operates parking facilities owned or leased by other parties, and provides financial and other advisory services. The Company's facilities are located in Louisiana. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the purchase price has been Page 14 of 19 15 allocated to CPS of LA's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. Since the date of acquisition, the results of operations have been included in the company's consolidated financial statements. Prior to the acquisition, results of operation have been accounted for on the Company's books under the equity method. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $2.3 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years. Kinney System Holding, Corp. On February 12, 1998, the Company purchased Kinney System Holding Corp. ("Kinney"), a privately-held parking company headquartered in New York City, for $208.8 million, including $171.8 million in cash and other consideration, and $37.0 million (882,422 shares) in common stock of the Company. Kinney currently operates 403 parking facilities, including facilities in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington D.C. In connection with this transaction, the Company assumed $8.1 million in capitalized leases, refinanced $24.2 million in existing Kinney debt and assumed $4.6 million of Kinney debt. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the outcome of an independent evaluation of Kinney's February 12, 1998 balance sheet. The Company financed the Kinney acquisition with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Kinney have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The preliminary purchase price has been allocated to Kinney's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the preliminary purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $186.3 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 30 years. Purchase price adjustments for Kinney have not been finalized. Diplomat Parking Corporation On October 1, 1997, the Company purchased Diplomat Parking Corporation ("Diplomat") for $21.7 million, which was financed through a $12.3 million draw on a revolving credit facility and an $8.2 million note to the sellers, that was subsequently paid, at an interest rate of 5%. The note payment was financed through a draw on the revolving credit facility. Diplomat operates 164 parking facilities, located primarily in Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Diplomat have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase price has been allocated to Diplomat's assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $20.1 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years. Civic Parking, L.L.C. On December 31, 1996, the Company purchased for cash, Civic Parking L.L.C. ("Civic Parking"), a limited liability company, which owns four parking garages in St. Louis: Kiener East, Kiener West, Stadium East and Stadium West. The four garages, which had previously been operated by the Company under management agreements, have a total of 7,464 parking spaces. The purchase price was approximately $91.0 million, which was financed through working capital and a draw of $67.2 million on the Company's revolving credit facility. The transaction was accounted for under the purchase method. The estimated fair value of the garages at the date of the acquisition was equal to the purchase price and, accordingly, management has allocated the purchase price to the land and buildings acquired. On April 16, 1997, the Company sold 50% of the membership units of Civic Parking to an affiliate of Equity Capital Holdings, L.L.C. for $46.0 million in cash. In the allocation of the purchase price, the Company assigned $45.8 million to the membership units that were sold; consisting of an estimated sale price of $46.0 million and estimated net cash inflows for the holding period of $638 thousand offset by interest on incremental debt during the holding period of $801 thousand. The membership units retained by the Company have been accounted for in the accompanying financial statements under the equity method. On March 17, 1998, Civic Parking obtained financing with a financial institution for $60 million. The Company received net proceeds of $30.3 million from this transaction which reduced the Company's investment in partnerships and joint ventures. The proceeds from the refinancing were used to pay down the New Credit Facility mentioned below. The Company does not expect such distributions to occur in the future. The Company will continue to operate these garages pursuant to a lease and operating agreement with Civic Parking. Page 15 of 19 16 New Credit Facility On February 11, 1998, the Company established a new credit facility providing for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, consisting of a five-year $200 million revolving credit facility, including a sub-limit of $25 million for standby letters of credit, and a $100 million term loan. The term loan portion of the New Credit Facility was repaid with proceeds from the common stock and Preferred Securities offerings described below. The New Credit Facility bears interest until June 30, 1998 at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.25%. On June 30, 1998 the interest rate on the New Credit Facility and the commitment fee on the unused portion will revert to a grid pricing based upon the achievement of various financial ratios. The New Credit Facility contains certain covenants including those that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, restrict further indebtedness, and limit the amount of dividends payable. The amount outstanding under the Company's New Credit Facility as of June 30, 1998 is $53.5 million, with an average interest rate of 6.9% for the period the New Credit Facility was outstanding. The Company used borrowings under the New Credit Facility to replace the Company's prior revolving credit facility and to finance the Kinney acquisition. The prior credit facility, which was unsecured, was scheduled to expire January 31, 2000. Credit available under the prior facility amounted to $120 million. The amount outstanding under the Company's prior credit facility was $70.8 million, which is reflected as long term debt on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 1997. Such debt had a 7.1% weighted average interest rate for the period from December 31, 1996 to September 30, 1997, during which the Company had debt outstanding. At June 30, 1997, the Company had $78.3 million outstanding under its credit facilities at an interest rate of 7.1%. The weighted average balance outstanding was $227.4 million during the nine months ended June 30, 1997 at an average interest rate of 7.2%. Convertible Trust Issued Preferred Securities and Equity Offerings On March 18, 1998, the Company completed an offering of 2,137,500 shares of common stock. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of $89.3 million. Concurrent with the common stock offering, the Company created the Trust which completed a private placement of 4,400,000 shares at $25.00 per share of 5.25% convertible trust issued preferred securities pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Preferred Securities represent preferred undivided beneficial interests in the assets of Central Parking Finance Trust, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company owns all of the common securities of the Trust. The Trust exists for the sole purpose of issuing the Preferred Securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of 5.25% Convertible Subordinated Debentures ("Convertible Debentures") of the Company due 2028. The net proceeds to the Company from the Preferred Securities private placement were $106.0 million. Each Preferred Security is entitled to receive cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 5.25% (or $1.312 per share) and will be convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of Company common stock at a conversion rate of 0.4545 shares of Company common stock for each Preferred Security (equivalent to $55.00 per share of Company common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Preferred Securities do not have a stated maturity date but are subject to mandatory redemption upon the repayment of the Convertible Debentures at their stated maturity (April 1, 2028) or upon acceleration or earlier repayment of the Convertible Debentures. The proceeds of the equity and preferred security offerings were used to repay indebtedness. The Company's consolidated balance sheets reflect the Preferred Securities of the Trust as company-obligated mandatorily redeemable convertible securities of subsidiary whose sole assets are the convertible subordinated debentures of the Company. Subsequent Events On July 1, 1998, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Sterling Parking, Inc, ("Sterling") a privately-held parking company headquartered in Dallas, Texas, for $4.48 million, including $2.24 million in cash and $2.24 million (54,358 shares) in common stock of the Company. The Company financed the cash portion of the Sterling purchase with borrowings under the New Credit Facility described above. Sterling operates 34 parking facilities in Georgia, Florida, Virginia, California, and Kentucky. Page 16 of 19 17 Year 2000 The Company has considered the impact of year 2000 issues on its computer systems and applications and has developed a remediation plan. These plans are part of the Company's ongoing business strategies to incorporate advanced technologies in its information systems. The expenditures for system upgrades will be accounted for as capital expenditures, and will not have a significant impact on the Company's operations or liquidity.
