Page 3 AVALON CORRECTIONAL SERVICES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Business - Avalon Correctional Services, Inc. ("Avalon" or the "Company") is an owner and operator of private community correctional services. Avalon specializes in privatized community correctional facilities and correctional programming. Avalon is currently operating in Oklahoma, Texas and Colorado with plans to significantly expand into additional states. Avalon's business strategy is designed to elevate the Company into a dominant provider of community correctional services by expanding its operations through new state and Federal contracts and selective acquisitions. Avalon owns a 300-bed community corrections facility in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; a 320-bed community corrections facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma; a 150-bed community corrections facility in Tulsa, Oklahoma; a 150-bed medium security facility in El Paso, Texas; a 300-bed medium security facility in El Paso, Texas; a 180- bed community corrections facility on leased land in Del Valle, Texas; a 160-bed medium security juvenile facility in Union City, Oklahoma; a 139-bed community corrections facility in Henderson, Colorado; and a 307-bed multi-use community corrections facility in Greeley, Colorado. Avalon also operates three programs in leased facilities: a 352- bed intermediate sanction unit in Tulsa, Oklahoma; a 36-bed community corrections facility in Denver, Colorado; and a day reporting center in Northglenn, Colorado. The Colorado community corrections programs also provide non-residential services to approximately 385 offenders in the State of Colorado. Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions. Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of management's estimates and assumptions in determining the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased and money market funds to be cash equivalents. Concentrations of Credit Risk - Financial instruments potentially subjecting the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments, accounts receivable and notes receivable. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions and money market funds and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one institution or fund. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable are limited due to the fact that a significant portion of the Company's receivables is from government agencies. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for potential credit losses. The allowance for doubtful accounts at each March 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001 was $27,000. Page 4 Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized, while minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in current operations. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings and Improvements 10 to 40 Years Furniture and Equipment 5 to 7 Years Transportation Equipment 2 to 15 Years Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amounts. Impairment losses are recognized based upon the estimated fair value of the asset when required. Income Taxes - Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established by management when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company's effective rate differs from the statutory rate of thirty-four percent due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenues as services are provided. Revenues are generally earned based upon the number of offenders on a per diem basis at the Company's correctional facilities. All Correctional revenues are received monthly from various governmental agencies. Development Costs - The Company expenses development and new facility opening costs as incurred. Net Income Per Common Share - Basic net income per share has been computed on the basis of weighted average shares outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share has been computed based on the assumption that all dilutive options and warrants are exercised using the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of convertible obligations is determined using the if-converted method. Interim Financial Statements - The consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2002 and the statements of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position as of such date and the results of operations and cash flows for the period then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The financial statements included herein have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2001 Form 10-KSB filing. Footnote disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the most recent annual report on Form 10-KSB have been condensed or omitted. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2002, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year ended December 31, 2002. Page 5 NOTE 2. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consists of the following: March 31, December 31, 2002 2001 ----------- ----------- Revolving line of credit with finance company, collateralized by accounts receivable, with interest at 1% over prime (effective rate of 5.0% at March 31, 2002); due Feb. 2003 $ 369,000 $ 495,000 transportation equipment, due in installments through October 2019 with interest ranging from 1.90% to 10.85%. 691,000 699,000 Notes payable to banks and finance companies, collateralized by land, buildings, and improvements due in installments through through February 2005 with interest ranging from 4.40% to 11% 13,186,000 13,644,000 Note payable to an investment company, uncollateralized with interest at 12.5%, due in four installments beginning in 2005, including original issue premium 10,242,000 10,254,000 ----------- ----------- $24,488,000 $25,092,000 Less - current maturities (2,347,000) $(2,545,000) ----------- ----------- $22,141,000 $22,547,000 =========== =========== The Company completed a $15,000,000 private placement of debt and equity with an investment company on September 16, 1998. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company tendered an unsecured subordinated note with a face value of $10,000,000 bearing interest of 12.5% with interest payable in quarterly installments until December 31, 2005, when the first of four quarterly principal installments is due. The Company also tendered 1,622,448 shares of redeemable common stock to the investment company. These shares are subject to repurchase by the Company under certain circumstances, or beginning September 16, 2003 at the holders option, at the then current average traded price of the stock. The Company is accreting the difference between the carrying value and the estimated redemption price of the stock by periodic charges / credits to additional paid-in capital. The Company obtained an independent fair value appraisal of the debt and equity instruments reflecting a fair value allocation of the debt of $10,365,000 and the fair value allocation of the redeemable common stock of $4,635,000. The original issue premium of $365,000 is being accreted as a reduction of interest expense over the term of the debt instrument. Debt issue costs of $1,654,000 (including $266,000 representing the fair value of warrants issued to financial advisors) have been allocated to the debt and redeemable common stock based upon their fair values. Costs of $511,000 allocated to the redeemable common stock reduced its original book value to $4,124,000. Costs of $1,143,000 allocated to the debt instrument are included in other assets and are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt instrument using the effective interest method. Certain notes payable to finance and investment companies contain covenants that require the Company, among other things, to maintain certain earnings and debt coverage ratios and receive approval for certain capital expenditures as defined in the agreements. Page 6 NOTE 3. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES The Company completed a private placement of $4,150,000 of convertible debentures on September 12, 1997. The convertible debentures bear interest at 7.5% and mature on September 12, 2007. The Company may redeem the convertible debentures at any time after May, 2000 at 106.5% of principal, declining to 100% at maturity. The convertible debentures are convertible into common stock at $3.00 per share at any time until their maturity. The convertible debenture holders signed agreements to subordinate the debentures to the $10,000,000 face value note issued on September 16, 1998. NOTE 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company issued Class E Warrants to purchase 79,000 shares of Common Stock in September 1997, in connection with the private placement of Convertible Debentures. The Company recognized $148,000 of cost based upon the difference in the exercise price of the Class E warrants and the current market price of the common stock on the date of issuance. This cost was recorded as debenture issue costs and is classified in other assets on the balance sheet. The debenture issue cost is amortized to expense over the term of the convertible debentures. The Class E stock purchase warrants provide for the purchase of the Company's common stock at a price of $3.00 per share at any time until September 12, 2002. The Company may redeem the warrants upon certain events for $.01 per share. The Company issued 200,539 stock purchase warrants to financial advisors in September 1998, in connection with the $15,000,000 private placement. The stock purchase warrants provide for the purchase of the Company's common stock at any time until their expiration at September 2002. The exercise price of the warrants is $3.75 per share as of the end of the quarter. The Company may redeem the warrants upon certain events for $.01 per share. The fair value of the warrants was allocated between the proceeds the debt and equity issues as debt issue cost and a reduction in redeemable common stock, respectively. A 1994 agreement provided for the issuance of an option to issue 750,000 common stock purchase warrants to purchase common stock at $1.50 per share for each dollar of Company debt guaranteed by the Company's CEO. The warrants have a five year term from the date of issuance, March 9, 2001. NOTE 5. STOCK OPTION PLAN The Company adopted a stock option plan (the "Plan") providing for the issuance of 250,000 shares of Class A common stock pursuant to both incentive stock options, intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code, and options that do not qualify as incentive stock options ("non-statutory"). The Option Plan was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission in November 1995. The purpose of the Plan is to provide continuing incentives to the Company's officers, key employees, and members of the Board of Directors. The options generally vest within five years and have a ten-year expiration period. The Company amended its Plan on December 1, 1996, increasing the number of shares available under the Plan to 600,000. Non-statutory options have been granted providing for the issuance of 505,798 shares of Class A common stock at exercise prices ranging from $1.50 to $4.25 per share. Options providing for the issuance of 418,280 shares were exercisable at March 31, 2002. NOTE 6. LITIGATION The Company is a party to litigation arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Page 7 7.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Liquidity and Capital Resources - The Company's business strategy is to focus on the private corrections industry, expanding its operations into additional states through new Federal and state contracts and selective acquisitions. The successful implementation of the Company's growth plan has created the need for additional capital and financing. The Company has been successful in securing $37 million of new capital and credit facilities since September 1997. The Company had approximately $3.5 million of cash and revolving credit available for new projects at March 31, 2002. The Company believes it has adequate cash reserves and cash flow from operations to meet its current cash requirements. The Company expects current contracts to generate sufficient income to increase cash reserves, while minimizing income taxes through the utilization of tax loss carryforwards. The Company secured an $18 million senior credit facility with Fleet Capital Corporation in February 1999. The credit facility with Fleet Capital Corporation was amended in December of 1999 to provide for a credit facility consisting of a $13.5 million term loan and a revolving line of credit equal to the lesser of $3 million or 80% of eligible accounts receivable. The credit facility matures in February 2003 and the Company is currently completing the documentation for renewal of the credit facility for an additional two year period. Results of Operations - Three Months Ended March 31, 2002 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2001. Total revenues increased by 11% to $6.63 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $5.95 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001. The increase was a result of overall increased offender census, the opening of the Riverside Intermediate Sanction Unit in December 2001, and the acquisition of the Austin Transitional Center in December 2001. The Company had net income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 of $305,000 or $.06 basic and diluted income per share, as compared to net income for the three months ended March 31, 2001 of $244,000 or $.05 basic and diluted earnings per share. The Company's significant improvement was the result of overall higher offender populations. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased 12% for the three months ended March 31, 2002 to $1,645,000 compared to $1,464,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Corporate. General and administrative expenses increased to $512,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $442,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001. General and administrative expenses represented 7.7 % of revenues in the first quarter of 2002 and 7.4% of revenues for the first quarter of 2001. General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased staffing for the Company's new contracts and acquisitions. The decrease in interest expense of $171,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 over the first quarter of 2001 resulted from lower interest rates. Depreciation and amortization expenses have increased commensurate with the growth of the correctional operations. Critical Accounting Policies - Revenues. Many states and other governmental agencies are experiencing budgetary pressures that could effect future revenues of the Company as a result of the current economic downturn. Governmental agencies may look first at reducing payments to outside contracting companies to maintain the level of expenditures at the government agency, rather than looking for the most cost-effective services available. The Company could experience reductions in revenues as a consequence of contracting agencies reducing the bed utilization in the Company's facilities. The Companies current and future accounts receivable are not impaired by any potential reduction and accordingly, a reserve cannot be established to offset future downturns. Page 10 Liquidity. Avalon's loan facility with Fleet Capital Corporation is scheduled to expire in February, 2003. The Company has received an offer from Fleet Capital Corporation to extend the loan for an additional two years. The documentation of this renewal is not complete at this time, however the Company believes the renewal will be completed in the near future. The Company believes it can find a suitable replacement credit facility on comparable terms should for any reason the Fleet Capital Corporation agreement not be completed. The Company would have insufficient cash reserves to meet this obligation should the Fleet Capital Corporation agreement not be completed and an acceptable alternative lending arrangement not be secured. The total amount due to Fleet at the end of the quarter was $12,459,000. Intangible assets. Three of Avalon's facilities - the Avalon Correctional Center, The Villa at Greeley, and the Phoenix Center - have intangible assets on their books representing the value allocated to the operating contracts at the time of their acquisition. These intangible assets are being amortized over a twenty-year period. Financial Accounting Standards Board SFAS 142 requires that assets such as these with life spans estimated to be indefinite, can no longer be amortized. If the intangible assets are shown to be impaired in some future period, they will have to be written down to their new value, all in the period where the impairment is ascertained. The Company's intangible assets total $1,800,000 at the end of the quarter. A complete write-down of the balance would most likely eliminate all profit for that year, although the liquidity of the Company would not be affected. An impairment results in a non-cash charge to earnings but does not affect cash flows. Equity valuation. 1,622,448 shares of the Company's stock (approximately one-third) have a put attached which becomes active in 2003. This put is redeemable under certain circumstances at the holder's option and requires the Company to purchase the stock at the market value. The stock is recorded on the Company's books at an estimated redemption value and is updated quarterly. This estimated price will become more volatile as the redemption date draws nearer, and will ultimately track the price of the stock. This change in stock value is offset by an equal change to Paid-in Capital, and could possibly hinder the Company's ability to market its stock. Page 11 AVALON CORRECTIONAL SERVICES, INC.
