ITEM 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include
all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of Management, all
adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair
presentation of the operating results have been included in the statements.

On January 1, 1999 the Company adopted the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 98-5 "Reporting on the
Costs of Start-Up Activities". This SOP establishes accounting standards for
these costs and requires they generally be expensed as incurred. The effect of
the adoption of this SOP was a charge of $3,820,000 net of income taxes of
$1,313,000 recorded as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in
the accompanying financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified
as to certain amounts to conform with the 1999 presentation.

Revenues for the first six months of 1999 were $34,000 higher than the
comparable period of 1998. This was primarily due to an increase of $60,000,000
in the Energy segment chiefly associated with an increase of $59,900,000 in
construction revenues primarily reflecting increased activity in the
Environmental group and in Waste-to-Energy retrofits, increased revenues in the
Independent Power group overseas operations primarily reflecting operations
acquired in 1999 and a gain on the sale of a joint venture interest. These
increases were partially offset by lower revenue in Waste-to-Energy chiefly
associated with the closing of the Lawrence, Massachusetts facility and the
amortization of the prepayment of a power sales agreement, and in the
Environmental group reflecting lower activity in domestic and Spanish
operations. The Entertainment segment's revenues were $37,600,000 higher
primarily due to the acquisition of Casino Iguazu in late 1998, five Water Park
attractions in 1999, increased activity in amphitheater concert operations, the
gain on the sale of certain contracts as well as a gain associated with the
renegotiation of a management contract at Arrowhead Pond, partially offset by
lower activity in food and beverage operations at several shopping mall
locations. These increases in Energy and Entertainment revenues were offset by a
decrease of $83,700,000 in the Aviation segments' revenues chiefly associated
with the sale of inflight catering operations in June 1998 which had revenues of
$68,300,000 in 1998 and an adjusted gain on the sale of $36,400,000 in the first
six months of 1998, partially offset by the acquisition of the Flight Services
Group in March 1999, Hong Kong operations which commenced in the third quarter
of 1998, and increased activity in European and Domestic ground services and
fueling operations. The Other segments' revenues decreased $13,900,000 chiefly
associated with lower activity at Datacom (formerly Atlantic Design) and on
government contracts.

Consolidated operating income for the first six months of 1999 was $4,700,000
lower than the comparable period of 1998 primarily due to lower income from
operations in the Aviation segment of $19,400,000 primarily reflecting the
adjusted gain on the sale of the inflight catering operations in the second
quarter of 1998 reduced by provisions for restructuring European operations,
certain legal claims and other charges in 1998 which were partially offset by
increased activity in domestic ground handling and fueling operations and in
international operations as well as the acquisition of the Flight Services Group
in March 1999. The Entertainment segment's income from operations was $4,400,000
lower chiefly associated with losses incurred at several site based locations
(Tinseltown, Casino Iguazu and American Wilderness), start up losses at several
shopping malls and certain fees received in 1998, partially offset by gain on
the renegotiation of the management contract at Arrowhead Pond of $6,025,000,
and the gain on the sale of certain amphitheater contracts of $7,200,000. The
Other segments' income from operations was $1,900,000 lower primarily reflecting
additional income recognized in 1998 on the sale of Facility Services operations
which were sold in 1997, partially offset by lower operating losses in 1999 at
Datacom. These reductions in income from operations for the Aviation,
Entertainment and Other segments were partially offset by an increase of
$9,500,000 in the Energy segment income from operations primarily due to an
increase of $17,700,000 in Independent Power operations chiefly associated with
a gain of $4,800,000 on the sale of a joint venture interest, adjustments of
$9,000,000 associated with the acquisition of the remaining 50% interest


in a joint venture and increased income in certain operations of $3,500,000.
These increases were partially offset by lower income of $5,100,000 in
Waste-to-Energy chiefly associated with the closing of the Lawrence facility,
reduced activity at several other facilities, the amortization of the prepayment
of a power sales agreement and a gain in 1998 of $9,000,000 on the sale of a
power sales agreement partially offset by a gain of $9,300,000 on the
renegotiation of a facility contract in 1999. Environmental operations had lower
income of $3,100,000 reflecting decreased foreign and domestic activity.

Debt service charges decreased $3,700,000 primarily due to lower debt
outstanding on various facilities caused by redemption, refinancing and
maturities of bonds. The Energy segment had interest rate swap agreements
entered into as hedges against interest rate exposure on adjustable rate project
debt that resulted in additional debt service expense of $1,141,000 and $355,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Two of these
interest rate swap agreements were terminated in the third and fourth quarters
of 1998.

Corporate unallocated expenses - net for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were
$16,600,000 lower than the comparable period of 1998. This decrease primarily
reflects restructuring costs, certain litigation and proxy related charges
provided for in the second quarter of 1998 and other income reflecting a gain of
$5,100,000 on the sale of an investment in June 1999.

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $2,100,000 lower than
the comparable period of 1999 primarily reflecting the repayment of loans to
customers and joint ventures, notes received from the sale of various
operations, and interest received in 1998 on state tax refunds. Interest expense
was $2,800,000 higher chiefly associated with increased borrowings relating to
overseas and domestic acquisition and expansion activities. Ogden has one
interest rate swap agreement covering a notional amount of $2,400,000 which
expires November 30, 2000 and was entered into to convert Ogden's variable rate
debt to a fixed rate. Another swap agreement expired December 16, 1998 and was
entered into to convert Ogden's fixed rate $100,000,000 9.25% debentures to a
variable rate. Additional interest expense relating to these swap agreements was
not significant in the first six months of 1998 and 1999, respectively.

Equity in income of investees and joint ventures for the six months ended June
30, 1999 was $2,200,000 higher than the comparable period of 1998 primarily
reflecting increased earnings in Aviation joint ventures which were affected by
the write off of start-up costs at Argentina and Colombia joint ventures in 1998
partially offset by decreased earnings of Pacific Energy Inc. joint ventures,
which included the buy out of an energy sales agreement with respect to a 50%
joint venture in 1998.

The effective income tax rate for the first six months of 1999 and 1998 was 38%
for both periods.


Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were $11,600,000 lower than
the comparable period of 1998. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of
$59,500,000 in the Aviation segment chiefly associated with the sale of the
inflight catering business in June 1998 which had revenues of $35,100,000 in
1998 and an adjusted gain on the sale of $36,400,000 partially offset by the
acquisition of Flight Services Group in March 1999, the start up of Hong Kong
operations in late 1998 and increased activity in ground services operations.
The Other segment's revenues were $3,600,000 lower primarily reflecting reduced
activity at Datacom. These decreases in the Aviation and Other segments'
revenues were partially offset by an increase of $26,100,000 in the Energy
segment chiefly associated with an increase of $29,200,000 in construction
revenues primarily reflecting increased activity in the Environmental Group and
in Waste-to-Energy retrofits and an increase of $7,400,000 in Independent Power
operations chiefly associated with operations acquired in 1999. These increases
were partially offset by reduced operating activity in Waste-to-Energy
operations chiefly associated with the closing of the Lawrence facility and the
amortization of the prepayment of a power sales agreement and in the
Environmental group reflecting lower activity in domestic and foreign
operations. The Entertainment segment's revenues were $25,400,000 higher
primarily reflecting increased concert activity, the acquisition of several new
contracts, Casino Iguazu, four Water Parks and the gain on the sale of certain
Amphitheater contracts.

Consolidated operating income for the three months ending June 30, 1999 was
$4,000,000 lower than the comparable period of 1998. The Aviation segment's
income from operations was $20,700,000 lower primarily reflecting the adjusted
gain on the sale of inflight catering operations in June 1998 reduced by
provisions for restructuring European operations, certain legal claims and other
charges partially offset by increased activity in domestic and international
fueling and ground services operations and the acquisition of Flight Services
Group. The Entertainment segment's income from operations was $700,000 lower
chiefly associated with losses incurred at several site based locations
(Tinseltown, Casino Iguazu, American Wilderness) and certain fees and bad debt
recovery in 1998 partially offset by the gain on the sale of certain
Amphitheater contracts. The Other segment's income from operations was $700,000
lower primarily reflecting charges relating to the sale of Facility Services,
partially offset by increased margins at Datacom. These reductions in the
Entertainment, Aviation and Other segments were partially offset by an increase
in income from operations of $8,200,000 in the Energy segment chiefly associated
with an increase of $13,300,000 in Independent Power group's income from
operations reflecting adjustments of $9,000,000 associated with the acquisition
of the remaining 50% of a joint venture, and increased operating income in
certain subsidiaries, partially offset by decreased operating income of
$5,300,000 in the Waste-to-Energy group primarily reflecting the closing of the
Lawrence facility, the amortization of the prepayment of a power sales agreement
and a gain of $9,300,000 on the renegotiation of a facility contract in 1999
partially offset by a gain in 1998 of $9,000,000 on the sale of a power sales
agreement and lower income of $1,500,000 in Environmental operations reflecting
lower domestic activity and a loss in Spanish operations.


Debt service charges decreased $1,400,000 due primarily to lower debt
outstanding on various facilities caused by redemption, refinancing and
maturities of bonds. The Energy segment had interest rate swap agreements
entered into as hedges against interest rate exposure on adjustable rate project
debt that resulted in additional debt service expense of $413,000 and $108,000
for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Two of these
interest rate swap agreements were terminated in the third and fourth quarters
of 1998.

Corporate unallocated expenses - net for the three months ended June 30, 1999
were $15,100,000 lower than the comparable period of 1998. This decrease
primarily reflects restructuring costs, certain litigation and proxy related
charges provided for in the second quarter of 1998 and other income reflecting a
gain of $5,100,000 on the sale of an investment in June 1999.

Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was $1,700,000 lower
than the comparable period of 1998 primarily reflecting the repayment of loans
by customers and joint ventures, notes received from the sale of various
operations and interest received in 1998 on state tax refunds. Interest expense
was $1,800,000 higher primarily reflecting increased borrowings relating to
overseas and domestic acquisitions and expansion activity. Ogden had one
interest rate swap agreement covering a notional amount of $2,400,000 which
expires November 30, 2000 and was entered into to convert Ogden's variable rate
debt to a fixed rate. Another swap agreement expired December 16, 1998.
Additional interest expense relating to these swap agreements was not
significant for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures for the three months ended
June 30, 1999 was $700,000 lower than the comparable period of 1998 chiefly
associated with the operations of Pacific Energy joint ventures which included
the buy out of an energy sales agreement with respect to a 50% joint venture in
1998, partially offset by increased income in Aviation overseas joint ventures
which were affected by the write off of start-up costs at Argentina and Colombia
joint ventures in 1998.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was 38%
compared with 38.4% for the comparable period of 1998. This decrease of .4% was
chiefly associated with an increase in non-deductible permanent items for U.S.
purposes.

Capital Investment and Commitments: For the six months ended June 30, 1999,
capital investments amounted to $72,000,000, of which $21,400,000, inclusive of
restricted funds transferred from funds held in trust, was for Energy facilities
and $50,600,000 was for normal replacement and growth in Entertainment
($37,100,000), Aviation ($5,600,000), Energy ($6,900,000), and Other
($1,000,000) operations.

At June 30, 1999, capital commitments amounted to $164,600,000, which included
$107,100,000 for normal replacement, modernization, and growth in Entertainment
($93,000,000), Aviation ($3,400,000), and Energy ($10,700,000) operations.


Energy also has a commitment to pay, in 2008, $10,600,000 for a service contract
extension at a waste-to-energy facility. Also included was $46,900,000 for
Energy's coal-fired power project in the Philippines, a natural gas-fired power
plant in Bangladesh, and an investment in a joint venture, reflecting
$25,200,000 for the remaining mandatory equity contributions, $5,700,000 for
contingent equity contributions, and $16,000,000 for standby letters of credit
in support of debt service reserve requirements. Funding for the remaining
mandatory equity contributions is being provided through bank credit facilities,
which must be repaid in June 2000 through December 2001. The Corporation also
has a $7,300,000 contingent equity contribution in Entertainment ($2,500,000)
and Aviation ($4,800,000) joint ventures. The Corporation has entered into an
agreement to acquire Volume Services of America, Inc. for a purchase price of
$127,000,000 plus approximately $215,000,000 in assumed debt subject to all
regulatory approvals and certain other conditions. A non-refundable payment of
$10,000,000 was made on the signing of this agreement. In addition, compliance
with the standards and guidelines under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 may
require further Energy capital expenditures of approximately $40,000,000 through
December 2000 subject to the final time schedules determined by the individual
states in which the Corporation's waste-to-energy facilities are located.

Ogden and certain of its subsidiaries have issued or are party to performance
bonds and guarantees and related contractual obligations undertaken mainly
pursuant to agreements to construct and operate certain waste-to-energy,
entertainment, and other facilities. In the normal course of business, they are
involved in legal proceedings in which damages and other remedies are sought. In
connection with certain contractual arrangements, Ogden has agreed to provide a
vendor with a specified amount of business over a two-year period. If this
amount is not provided the Corporation may be liable for prorated damages of up
to approximately $3,000,000. Management does not expect that these contractual
obligations, legal proceedings, or any other contingent obligations incurred in
the normal course of business will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's
Consolidated Financial Statements.

During 1994, a subsidiary of Ogden entered into a 30-year facility management
contract, pursuant to which it agreed to advance funds to a customer, and if
necessary, to assist the customer's refinancing of senior secured debt incurred
in connection with the construction of the facility. Ogden is obligated to
purchase such senior secured debt in the amount of $97,050,000 on December 23,
2002, if the debt is not refinanced prior to that time. Ogden is also required
to repurchase the outstanding amount of certain subordinated secured debt of
such customer on December 23, 2002. At June 30, 1999, the amount outstanding was
$51,625,000. In addition, on June 30, 1999, the Corporation has guaranteed
$3,400,000 of senior secured term debt of an affiliate and principal tenant of
this customer and has guaranteed up to $3,400,000 of the tenant's secured
revolving debt. In addition, Ogden is obligated to purchase $20,381,000 of the
tenant's secured subordinated indebtedness on January 29, 2004, if such
indebtedness has not been repaid or refinanced prior to that time. Ogden has
guaranteed approximately $4,000,000 of borrowings of a joint venture in which


Ogden has an equity interest. Management does not expect that these arrangements
will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's Consolidated Financial
Statements.

Liquidity/Cash Flow: Net cash provided from operating activities was
$197,300,000 lower than the comparable period of 1998 primarily reflecting a
decrease in deferred income of $202,600,000 chiefly associated with the
prepayment of a power sales agreement for the Haverhill waste-to-energy plant in
1998. Net cash used in investing activities increased $161,300,000 primarily
reflecting the purchase of Energy operations in the Philippines and Thailand and
the remaining 50% interest in a joint venture as well as the Flight Services
group and five Water Parks in the United States and Brazil amounting to
$133,700,000, a decrease in proceeds from sale of businesses of $57,800,000, an
increase in capital expenditures of $6,300,000, an increase of $10,000,000 in
other investments, partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of marketable
securities of $44,700,000. Net cash used in financing activities was
$154,500,000 lower primarily reflecting a reduction of funds held in trust of
$178,100,000 chiefly associated with the prepayment of a power sales agreement
in 1998, and a decrease of $19,700,000 for the purchase of treasury shares
partially offset by a net decrease of $37,200,000 in debt chiefly associated
with acquisitions and $6,300,000 lower proceeds from the exercise of stock
options.

Exclusive of changes in Energy facility construction activities and the
contracts discussed herein, the Corporation's other types of contracts are not
expected to have a material effect on liquidity. Cash required for investing and
financing activities is expected to be satisfied from operating activities;
available funds, including short-term investments; proceeds from the sale of
noncore businesses; proceeds from the sale of debt or equity securities; and the
Corporation's unused credit facilities to the extent needed. Debt service
associated with project debt of waste-to-energy facilities, which is an explicit
component of a client community's obligation under its service agreement, is
paid as it is billed and collected.

At June 30, 1999, the Corporation had $100,200,000 in cash and cash equivalents
and unused revolving credit lines of $160,000,000.

In 1998, Ogden's Board of Directors authorized the purchase of shares of the
Corporation's common stock in an amount up to $200,000,000. Through June 30,
1999, 2,223,000 shares of common stock were purchased for $58,891,000.

Year 2000 Issues:

Background - The term `Year 2000 issue' generally refers to the problems that
may occur from the improper processing of date sensitive calculations, date
comparisons, and leap year determination by computers and other machinery
containing computer chips (i.e., "embedded systems"). In an effort to save
expensive memory and processing time, historically most of the world's computer
hardware and software used only two digits to identify the year in a date. If


not corrected or replaced, many systems will fail to distinguish between the
years `2000' and `1900' and will incorrectly process related date information.

State of Readiness - Ogden has established a Year 2000 Project that is actively
addressing its Year 2000 issues. The project is comprised of four phases:
awareness, assessment, action, and anticipation. The awareness phase included
the education of the Corporation's Board of Directors, management, and staff
regarding the Year 2000 issue and the Corporation's strategy to address the
problem. The awareness phase of the project is completed. The objective of the
project's assessment phase is to inventory and assess the Year 2000 compliance
of Ogden's internal information technology and embedded systems, as well as to
ascertain the compliance of the products and services provided to the
Corporation by third parties. Ogden's internal assessment is complete. The
assessment of third parties on which the Corporation relies for key products and
services is now considered an iterative process that will continue through the
end of 1999. Ogden's action phase includes the prioritization, remediation, and
testing of Year 2000 solutions. The Corporation is performing the remediation of
all its mission critical systems, through a series of projects with completion
dates between January 1997 and November 1999. This phase is winding down. The
fourth phase of Ogden's Year 2000 Project, the anticipation phase, includes the
development and implementation of contingency plans for mission critical
business functions. The anticipation phase of the project has begun and is
expected to continue throughout 1999.

Ogden has made considerable progress towards Year 2000 compliance, as a result
of it's initiative to improve access to business information through the
implementation of common, integrated computing systems across the operations of
the Corporation. Early in the process, Ogden adopted the strategy of
implementing industry standard compliant packages, rather than remediate the
code of its legacy systems. This initiative commenced in 1996, with the
replacement of Ogden's domestic administrative systems with the PeopleSoft
systems and the upgrade of associated infrastructure. The implementations of
these Year 2000 compliant systems are completed. Additional efforts to replace
or upgrade the international administrative systems and a variety of key
operating systems are on schedule for completion. Ogden has not deferred any
specific information technology project as a result of the implementation of the
Year 2000 Project.

Costs - The total cost associated with resolving the Corporation's Year 2000
issues is not expected to be material to the Company's financial condition.
Based on the assessments and remediation plans, the estimated costs of the
Company's Year 2000 Project are $11,200,000. Ogden has spent $4,500,000 to date,
and anticipates the majority of the cost being incurred during the summer
months. Because of Ogden's strategy to implement or upgrade a number of systems
(e.g., PeopleSoft) as part of its initiative to improve access to key business
information, those costs of implementation are not included in these estimates.


Risks - The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that public companies
forecast the most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario. Based on the
assessment efforts to date, the Company does not believe that the Year 2000
issue will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results
of operations. The Company operates a large number of geographically dispersed
sites and has a large supplier base and believes that these factors will
mitigate any adverse impact. The Company's beliefs and expectations, however,
are based on certain assumptions and expectations that ultimately may prove to
be inaccurate.

The Company has identified that a significant disruption in the supply chain
represents the most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario. Potential
sources of risk include (a) the inability of principal suppliers and providers,
to be Year 2000 ready, which could result in delays in deliveries from such
suppliers and (b) disruption of the Company's ability to provide products and
services as a result of a general failure of systems and necessary
infrastructure such as electricity supply. The Company is preparing contingency
plans around an assumed period of disruption to the supply chain, to reduce the
impact of significant failure.

Contingency Plans - Ogden's Year 2000 project strategy includes the development
of contingency plans for any mission critical business functions determined to
be at risk. While Ogden is not presently aware of any significant exposure,
there can be no assurances that all Year 2000 remediation processes will be
completed and properly tested before the Year 2000, or that contingency plans
will sufficiently mitigate the risk of a Year 2000 compliance problem. Ogden has
begun the development of its contingency plan. The contingency planning process
is an ongoing one which will continue through 1999 as Ogden obtains relevant
Year 2000 compliance information resulting from its internal remediation and
testing efforts, as well as from third parties.

Any statements in this communication, including but not limited to the "Year
2000 Issue" discussion, which may be considered to be "forward-looking
statements," as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform
Act of 1995, are subject to certain risk and uncertainties. The factors that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by any such
statements include, but are not limited to, those discussed or identified from
time to time in the Corporation's public filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and more generally, general economic conditions, including
changes in interest rates and the performance of the financial markets; changes
in domestic and foreign laws, regulations, and taxes; changes in competition and
pricing environments; and regional or general changes in asset valuations.


                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

            Ogden Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") are parties
to various legal proceedings involving matters arising in the ordinary course of
business. The Company does not believe that there are any pending legal
proceedings for damages against the Company, other than ordinary routine
litigation incidental to its business, the outcome of which would have a
material adverse effect on the Company on a consolidated basis.

(a) Environmental Matters

            The Company conducts regular inquiries of its subsidiaries regarding
litigation and environmental violations which include determining the nature,
amount and likelihood of liability for any such claims, potential claims or
threatened litigation.

            In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may become
involved in Federal, state, and local proceedings relating to the laws
regulating the discharge of materials into the environment and the protection of
the environment. These include proceedings for the issuance, amendment, or
renewal of the licenses and permits pursuant to which a Company subsidiary
operates. Such proceedings also include actions brought by individuals or local
governmental authorities seeking to overrule governmental decisions on matters
relating to the subsidiaries' operations in which the subsidiary may be, but is
not necessarily, a party. Most proceedings brought against the Company by
governmental authorities or private parties under these laws relate to alleged
technical violations of regulations, licenses, or permits pursuant to which a
subsidiary operates. The Company believes that such proceedings will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

            The Company's operations are subject to various Federal, state and
local environmental laws and regulations, including the Clean Air Act, the Clean
Water Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability
Act (CERCLA) and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Although the
Company operations are occasionally subject to proceedings and orders pertaining
to emissions into the environment and other environmental violations, the
Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with existing
environmental laws and regulations.

            In connection with certain previously divested operations, the
Company may be identified, along with other entities, as being among potentially
responsible parties responsible for contribution for costs associated with the
correction and remediation of environmental conditions at various hazardous
waste disposal sites subject to CERCLA. In certain instances the Company may be
exposed to joint and several liability for remedial action or damages. The
Company's ultimate liability in connection with such environmental claims will
depend on many factors, including its volumetric share of waste, the total cost
of remediation, the financial viability of other companies that also sent waste
to a given site and its contractual arrangement with the purchaser of such
operations.


                                      II-1


            The potential costs related to such matters and the possible impact
on future operations are uncertain due in part to the complexity of government
laws and regulations and their interpretations, the varying costs and
effectiveness of cleanup technologies, the uncertain level of insurance or other
types of recovery, and the questionable level of the Company's responsibility.
Although the ultimate outcome and expense of environmental remediation is
uncertain, the Company believes that required remediation and continuing
compliance with environmental laws will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's consolidated financial statements.
