The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements. ARAMARK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (1) CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of the Company, the statements include all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) required for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such periods. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year. (2) OTHER INCOME: In January 1997, the Company sold an approximate 83% interest in its Spectrum Healthcare Services, Inc. subsidiary (Spectrum). Total consideration was approximately $158 million and included cash ($125 million), notes and a warrant. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of $72.4 million, net of transaction costs and reserves established for indemnification of certain matters related to insurance, legal and other matters ($20 million), and is reflected as "other expense (income)" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. No income taxes have been provided on the gain due to permanent differences in the underlying book and tax basis of the divested entity. In fiscal 1996, this business had approximately $500 million in annual revenues and a normalized operating margin of approximately 4%. Cash proceeds from the divestiture were used to repay borrowings under the $1 billion credit facility. In the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company sold the King Size division of its Uniform Services business. The net selling price was approximately $51 million in cash plus "warrants" and resulted in a pre-tax gain of $37 million, which was offset by other charges related to asset realization ($20 million) and insurance, legal and other matters ($14 million), including a $2 million charge for environmental liabilities, and is reflected as "other expense (income)" in the accompanying consolidated statement of income. The environmental liabilities relate to several minor remediation projects involving properties no longer in service. These remediation projects will not have any material on-going financial impact on the Company's financial statements. The King Size operations were not material to the Company's consolidated revenues or operating income. (3) LONG TERM BORROWINGS: In November 1996, the Company issued $125 million of 7.10% senior notes due December 2006. The net proceeds from the note offering were used to repay borrowings under the $1 billion credit facility. In January 1996, the Company redeemed its $80 million 8-1/4% senior note for a premium resulting in an extraordinary item for debt extinguishment of $1.6 million (net of tax benefit of $1.0 million) and issued a $125 million 6.79% senior note due January 2003, with annual principal repayments of $25 million beginning January 1999. (4) CAPITAL STOCK: During the first six months of fiscal 1997, pursuant to the ARAMARK Ownership Program, employees purchased 2,048,313 shares or $20.6 million of Class B Common Stock for $12.7 million of cash and $7.9 million of deferred payment obligations. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (5) SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION: The Company made interest payments of $53.4 million and $54.6 million and income tax payments of $38.8 million and $46.3 million during the first six months of fiscal 1997 and 1996, respectively. During the first six months of fiscal 1997, the Company purchased $17.3 million of its Class A Common Stock and $36.3 million of its Class B Common Stock, issuing $14.8 million in subordinated installment notes as partial consideration. (6) PROSPECTIVE ACCOUNTING CHANGES: In fiscal 1997, the Company is required to adopt the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". As permitted by SFAS 123, the Company will continue to apply its existing accounting policy under APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and will provide the expanded disclosures required by SFAS 123 in the fiscal 1997 Form 10-K. In fiscal 1998, the Company is required to adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires the disclosure of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. For the three and six month periods ended March 28, 1997, pro forma basic earnings per share under SFAS No. 128 would be $2.06 and $2.72, respectively. Diluted earnings per share would not be materially different from reported earnings per share. (7) ARAMARK SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES: The following financial information has been summarized from the separate consolidated financial statements of ARAMARK Services, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of ARAMARK Corporation) and the subsidiaries which it currently owns. ARAMARK Services, Inc. is the borrower under the revolving credit facility and certain other senior debt agreements and incurs the interest expense thereunder. This interest expense is only partially allocated to all of the other subsidiaries of ARAMARK Corporation.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview Revenues of $1.5 billion for the second quarter were equal with the prior year, and revenues of $3.1 billion for the six month period increased 4% over the prior year period. Operating income for the three and six month periods was $128.1 million and $204.8 million, respectively, which includes a gain of $72.4 million from the divestiture of Spectrum Healthcare Services, Inc. (Spectrum), which is reflected as "other expense (income)" in the condensed consolidated statements of income (see note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Excluding "other expense (income)" and the operating results for Spectrum, revenues and operating income increased 8% for the second quarter and increased 8% and 10%, respectively, for the six months compared to the prior year periods. Interest expense for the three and six month periods decreased 2% and 1%, respectively from the prior year periods due to lower interest rates, partially offset by increased debt levels to finance acquisitions and working capital requirements. The effective income tax rate for the three and six month periods was 10.8% and 20.2%, respectively, compared to 39.4% and 39.7% in the comparable prior year periods. The decrease in the effective tax rate is a result of a permanent difference in the book and tax basis of the divested Spectrum business (see note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Excluding the Spectrum divestiture gain, the effective tax rates for the three and six month fiscal 1997 periods were 40.6% and 40.4%, respectively. Segment Results Revenues - Food and Support Services segment revenues for the three and six month periods increased 6% and 7%, respectively, over the prior year periods due to new accounts (approximately 2%) and increased volume (approximately 4% and 5%, respectively), primarily in the United States food businesses. Uniform Services segment revenues for the three and six month periods increased 18% and 15%, respectively, due to the impact of recent acquisitions (approximately 11% and 9%, respectively) and increased volume in both the uniform rental and direct marketing businesses. Health and Education segment revenues, excluding the divested Spectrum operations, for both the three and six months increased 13% over the comparable prior year periods due to enrollment growth, pricing and new locations at Children's World. Distributive segment revenues for the second quarter were equal with the prior year period, with the impact of acquisitions offsetting a 5% decrease in base business. Distributive segment revenues for the six month period decreased 2% from the prior year period due to a 7% decrease in base business, partially offset by the impact of recent acquisitions. Operating Income, Before Other Expense (Income) - Food and Support Services segment operating income increased 7% and 15% for the three and six month periods versus the comparable prior year period as a result of the revenue increase noted above plus cost controls. Uniform Services segment second quarter operating income increased 1% over the prior year period reflecting the revenue increase noted above, offset by increased operating costs in the uniform rental business. Uniform Services segment operating income for the six month period increased 9% due to the revenue increases noted above plus cost controls in the direct marketing businesses. Health and Education segment operating income for the three and six month periods, excluding the operating results of the divested Spectrum business, increased 16% and 17%, respectively, over the comparable prior year period due to the revenue increases at Children's World noted above. The Distributive segment incurred an operating loss of $3.2 million and $5.4 million for the three and six month periods, respectively, a deterioration from the comparable prior year periods of approximately $1.4 million and $9.7 million, respectively. Results for this segment continue to be severely impacted by higher operating expenses due to costs of servicing new customers and reduced margins and volume resulting from increased competition and consolidation in the magazine wholesale distribution industry. The Company continues to believe it is well positioned to take advantage of the current competitive conditions in the industry. However, the future impact of these changes is uncertain at this time. The Company projects that operating results in the Distributive segment will continue to be significantly below historical levels achieved prior to fiscal 1996. FINANCIAL CONDITION The Company's indebtedness decreased $10.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 1997, with a reduction from the application of the divestiture proceeds being partially offset by increased borrowings for seasonal working capital needs and capital additions. In November 1996, the Company issued $125 million of 7.10% senior notes due December 2006. The net proceeds from the note offering were used to repay borrowings under the $1 billion credit facility. As discussed in note 2 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, in January 1997, the Company sold an approximate 83% interest in its Spectrum subsidiary. The cash proceeds were used to repay borrowings under the $1 billion credit facility. The divestiture will not have a material impact on the Company's liquidity. The Company currently has approximately $625 million of unused credit availability under its credit facilities, which management believes, along with cash flows from operations, is sufficient to fund operating requirements.
