BUSINESS. Unless otherwise expressly indicated herein, the descriptions of the Company contained herein are as of March 31, 1999. Description of the Business General Coinmach Laundry Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Coinmach Laundry" or the "Registrant"), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), is the leading supplier of outsourced laundry equipment services for multi-family housing properties in the United States. At March 31, 1999, the Company owned and operated approximately 765,000 washers and dryers (sometimes hereinafter referred to as "laundry machine" or "machines") in approximately 75,000 locations on routes located throughout the United States and in 163 retail laundromats located throughout Texas and Arizona. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Super Laundry Equipment Corp. ("Super Laundry"), is also a laundromat equipment distribution company. Overview The outsourced laundry equipment services industry provides washer and dryer services to individuals living in multi-family housing properties. The Company's existing customer base for its core business is comprised of landlords, property management companies, and owners of rental apartment buildings, condominiums and cooperatives, university and institutional housing and other multi-family housing properties. The Company's core business involves leasing laundry rooms from building owners and property management companies, installing and servicing the laundry equipment and collecting revenues generated from laundry machines. The Company typically sets pricing for the use of laundry machines on location, and the owner or property manager maintains the premises and provides utilities such as gas, electricity and water. As a result of its strategy to acquire route operators that contribute to the Company's core operations, the Company has selectively acquired certain related businesses which expand and diversify the types of services provided by the Company. The Company operates 163 retail laundromats throughout Texas and Arizona and provides laundromat services at all such locations. The Company also leases laundry equipment and other household appliances to corporate relocation entities, property owners, managers of multi-family housing properties and individuals. The Company believes that these non-core businesses, although not material to the Company's operations, provide a platform for expansion and diversification of the Company's services. See "Business--Description of Business--Complementary Operations." The Company maintains its headquarters in Roslyn, New York, a corporate office in Charlotte, North Carolina and regional offices throughout the United States through which it conducts operating activities, including sales, service and collections. Business Strategy The Company's business strategy is to enhance its position as the largest provider of outsourced laundry equipment services in the United States. Management intends to continue to grow the Company's installed machine base both internally and through selective acquisitions to achieve economies of scale, increase its operating efficiencies and improve its financial performance. Internal growth or expansion is comprised of: (i) adding new customers in existing regions and securing contracts for additional locations from current customers; (ii) converting owner-operated facilities to Company managed facilities; (iii) improving the net contribution per machine through operating efficiencies and selective price increases; and (iv) pursuing additional growth opportunities presented by the Company's leading market position and access to approximately six million 2 individual housing units. The Company's acquisition strategy is to continue to selectively acquire local, regional and multi-regional route businesses from independent operators at attractive prices. An important element of the Company's business strategy is to continue to expand its geographic presence to gain additional regional and multi-regional account opportunities with large multi-family housing property managers and owners. Management believes that a significant portion of its customer base, which manages multi-family housing and other residential properties, is consolidating. Consequently, management believes that opportunities for outsourcing laundry equipment services to professionally managed, multi- regional, well-capitalized independent operators such as the Company are increasing. The Company's business strategy also includes the continued development of its management information systems (the "Integrated Computer Systems"), which management believes are the most advanced in the industry. The Integrated Computer Systems provide real-time operational and competitive data which, in conjunction with the Company's multi-regional service capabilities, enhances the Company's operating efficiencies throughout its operating regions and enables the Company to deliver superior customer service. The Integrated Computer Systems also provide the Company with the flexibility to integrate acquisitions on a timely basis, including key functions such as sales, service, collections and security. Finally, as the industry leader, the Company works closely with its equipment vendors to assess ongoing technological changes and implements those which the Company believes are beneficial to its customers and to the Company's operating efficiencies and financial performance. In January 1995, management, with its equity sponsor, Golder, Thoma, Cressey, Rauner Fund IV, L.P., acquired the Company and initiated a strategy of growth through acquisitions. This strategy was designed to increase the installed machine base in its existing operating regions and to provide the Company with a strong market presence in new regions. Since January 1995, the Company has enhanced its national presence by completing ten significant acquisitions, adding annualized revenue of approximately $395 million and increasing its installed base from approximately 55,000 machines to approximately 765,000 machines as of March 31, 1999. Revenues have grown from approximately $72.9 million for the year ended March 31, 1995, to approximately $505.3 million for the year ended March 31, 1999, while EBITDA(/1/) has grown from approximately $13.6 million for the year ended March 31, 1995, to approximately $165.7 million (before deducting non-cash stock-based compensation charges) for the year ended March 31, 1999. These acquisitions have enabled the Company to improve its operating margins and to expand internally by competing more aggressively for new business. Growth Strategy The Company's growth strategy is to increase operating cash flow and profitability through a combination of internal expansion and acquisitions. Internal Expansion Internal expansion is comprised of: (i) increasing the installed machine base by adding new customers (including the acquisition of certain small, local route operations) and increasing the number of locations with existing customers; (ii) converting owner-operated facilities to Company managed facilities; (iii) improving the net contribution per machine through operating efficiencies and selective price increases; and (iv) pursuing - -------- (/1/) EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before deductions for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA for the period ending March 31, 1999 is before the deduction for stock based compensation charges. EBITDA is used by management and certain investors as an indicator of a company's historical ability to service debt. Management believes that an increase in EBITDA is an indication of a company's improved ability to service existing debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor has it been presented as an alternative to either (a) operating income (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of liquidity. Given that EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. 3 additional growth opportunities presented by its leading market position and access to approximately six million individual housing units. New Customers and Locations. The Company's sales and marketing efforts focus on adding new customers and increasing the number of locations from existing customers within its existing operating regions. The Company's primary means of internal expansion is by marketing the Company's products and services to building managers and property owners whose leases with other laundry equipment services providers are near expiration. The Company's Integrated Computer Systems track information on the lease expirations of its competitors. The Company believes that its leading market position and expanding geographic presence, primarily achieved through acquisitions, enhances its ability to gain new customers and additional locations from its existing customers. Conversions. Management believes that there are approximately one million machines installed in locations which continue to be managed by owner- operators. Building owners or managers can forgo significant cash outlays and servicing costs by contracting with the Company to purchase, service and maintain laundry equipment. Accordingly, the Company pursues building owners and managers to outsource their laundry facilities. The Company offers a full range of services from the design, construction and installation of new laundry facilities to the refurbishment of existing facilities. Management believes these services provide a competitive advantage in securing new customers. Operating Efficiencies and Price Increases. The Company focuses on improving its net contribution per machine through achieving operating efficiencies and selective price increases. Due to local competition and other factors beyond the Company's control, however, there can be no assurance that such efficiencies or price increases will occur. Other Growth Opportunities. While management intends to continue its focus on increasing its installed machine base, management believes that its leading market position and its access to over six million housing units provide the Company with additional growth and diversification opportunities. These opportunities include laundry equipment rental as well as other route-based facilities management services. The Company regularly explores strategic alliances with vendors of products complementary to its customer base. Management believes that its strategy of growth within its existing operating regions will result in additional economies of scale and operating efficiencies associated with an expanded machine base. Such growth, however, will be dependent upon a number of factors beyond the Company's control, such as the Company's ability to secure new contracts from owner-operators on commercially favorable terms and competitive forces that may reduce the number of opportunities to secure new locations or to effect price increases. Acquisitions While the pace of acquisitions has slowed during the last fiscal year, the Company intends to continue to pursue opportunities to acquire additional route businesses within the fragmented outsourced laundry equipment services industry. It has been the Company's experience that there are numerous private, family-owned businesses that often lack the financial resources to provide advance location payments, install new equipment, make laundry room improvements or otherwise compete effectively with larger independent operators such as the Company to secure new or existing contracts. Consequently, such independent operators, especially those which are undergoing generational ownership changes, represent potential acquisition opportunities for the Company. Management believes the Company is well positioned to capitalize on acquisition opportunities due to its operating efficiencies, its access to capital resources and senior management's extensive experience and relationships in the industry. The Company evaluates potential acquisitions based on the size of the business (in terms of revenues, cash flow and machine base), the geographic concentration of the business, market penetration, service history, customer relations, existing contract terms and potential operating efficiencies and cost savings. The Company considers three types of acquisition candidates: (i) local route operators; (ii) regional route operators; and (iii) multi-regional route operators. 4 Local route operators. The purchase of local operators (businesses operating within one of the Company's existing operating regions) results in eliminating most of the target's existing cost structure through the absorption of its machine base into the Company's operations. The Company's experience has been that the acquisition of local route operators has increased operating leverage within its operating regions. Moreover, the Company is able in many instances to acquire routes adjacent to its existing areas of operation without incurring significant incremental operating costs. Regional route operators. The Company's acquisition of regional route operators provides opportunities to improve its cash flow by eliminating duplicative corporate and administrative functions, reducing capital expenditures through improved purchasing power and implementing the Company's Integrated Computer Systems. During the past fiscal year, the Company completed the acquisitions of two regional route operators, Cleanco and G&T (each, as defined). Both of these acquisitions have been fully integrated into the Company's operations. Multi-regional route operators. Management believes that the acquisition of large, multi-regional route operators results in a number of operating efficiencies, including significant cost savings through the elimination of duplicative financial and administrative functions and related fixed costs. In addition, the increased volume of equipment purchases usually results in reduced per unit capital expenditures. As is the case with all acquisitions, the Company's Integrated Computer Systems are utilized to provide further operating efficiencies and related cost savings. The Kwik Wash Acquisition (as defined) and the Macke Acquisition (as defined) are examples of multi-regional acquisitions which enabled the Company to substantially increase its operating base, add several experienced regional managers, penetrate new markets, and, along with the aforementioned regional acquisitions, become the largest industry participant. The number of multi-regional route acquisition opportunities is limited, however, due to the Company's successful execution of its acquisition strategy over the past several years. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the Company will complete any such acquisition in the near future, if at all. Industry The outsourced laundry equipment services industry is characterized by stable cash flows generated by long-term, renewable lease contracts with multi-family housing property owners and management companies. The industry remains highly fragmented, with many small, private and family-owned route businesses operating throughout all major metropolitan areas. According to information provided by the Multi-housing Laundry Association, the industry consists of over 280 independent operators. Based upon industry estimates, management believes there are approximately 3.5 million installed machines in multi-family properties throughout the United States, approximately 2.5 million of which have been outsourced to independent operators such as the Company and approximately one million of which continue to be operated by the owners of such locations. The industry is highly capital intensive, with the most significant capital costs incurred upon procurement of new leases and the renewal of existing leases. Initial costs may include replacing or repairing existing washers and dryers, refurbishing laundry rooms and making advance location payments to secure long-term, renewable leases. After the initial expenditures, ongoing working capital requirements, which consist mainly of providing service and revenue collection, are minimal, since machines typically operate throughout the term of the contract under which they are installed, and variable costs are paid out of revenues collected from the machines. Historically, the industry has been characterized by stable demand and has been resistant to changing market conditions and general economic cycles. Management believes that the industry's consistent and predictable revenue and cash flow from operations are primarily due to: (i) the long-term nature of location leases; (ii) the stable demand for laundry services; and (iii) minimal ongoing working capital requirements. Description of Principal Operations The principal aspects of the Company's operations include: (i) sales and marketing; (ii) location leases; (iii) service; (iv) information management; (v) remanufacturing; and (vi) revenue collection and security. 5 Sales and Marketing The Company markets its products and services through a sales staff with average industry experience of over ten years. The principal responsibility of the sales staff is to solicit customers and negotiate lease arrangements with building owners and managers. All sales personnel are paid commissions that comprise 50% or more of their annual compensation. Selling commissions are based on a percentage of a location's annualized earnings before interest and taxes. Sales personnel must be proficient with the application of sophisticated financial analyses, which calculate minimum returns on investments to achieve targeted goals in securing location contracts and renewals. Management believes that its sales staff is among the most competent and effective in the industry. The Company's marketing strategy emphasizes excellent service offered by its experienced, highly skilled personnel and quality equipment that maximizes efficiency and revenue and minimizes machine down-time. The Company's sales staff targets potential new and renewal lease locations by utilizing the Integrated Computer Systems' extensive database to provide information on the Company's, as well as its competitors', locations. Additionally, the Integrated Computer Systems monitor performance, repairs and maintenance, as well as the profitability of locations on a daily basis. All sales, service and installation data is recorded and monitored daily on a custom-designed, computerized sales planner. No single customer represents more than 2% of the Company's revenues or installed machine base. In addition, the Company's ten largest customers taken together account for less than 10% of the Company's revenue. Location Leasing The Company's leases provide the Company the exclusive right to operate and service the installed laundry machines, including repairs, revenue collection and maintenance. The Company typically sets pricing for the use of the machines on location, and the property owner or property manager maintains the premises and provides utilities such as gas, electricity and water. In return for the exclusive right to provide laundry equipment services, most of the Company's leases provide for monthly commission payments to the location owners. Under the majority of leases, these commissions are based on a percentage of the cash collected from the laundry machines. Many of the Company's leases require the Company to make advance location payments to the location owner in addition to commissions. The Company's leases typically include provisions that allow for unrestricted price increases, a right of first refusal (an opportunity to match competitive bids at the expiration of the lease term) and termination rights if the Company does not receive minimum net revenues from a lease. The Company has some flexibility in negotiating its leases and, subject to local and regional competitive factors, may vary the terms and conditions of a lease, including commission rates and advance location payments. The Company evaluates each lease opportunity through its Integrated Computer Systems to achieve a desired level of return on investments. Management estimates that approximately 90% of its locations are under long- term leases with initial terms of five to ten years. Of the remaining locations not subject to long term leases, the Company believes that it has retained a majority of such customers through long-standing relationships and expects to continue to service such customers. A majority of the Company's leases renew automatically, and the Company has a right of first refusal on termination on approximately 40% of its leases. The Company's automatic renewal clause typically provides that, if the building owner fails to take any action prior to the end of the original lease term or any renewal term, the lease will automatically renew on substantially similar terms. As of March 31, 1999, the Company's leases have an average remaining life to maturity of approximately 48 months (without giving effect to automatic renewals). Service The Company's employees deliver, install, service and collect revenue from washers and dryers in laundry facilities at its leased locations. 6 The Company's fleet of radio-equipped service vehicles allows for the quick dispatch of service technicians in response to both computer-generated (for preventive maintenance) and customer-generated service calls. On a daily basis, the Company receives and responds to approximately 3,000 service calls. Management estimates that less than 1% of the Company's machines are out of service on any given day. The ability to reduce machine down time, especially during peak usage, enhances revenue and improves the Company's reputation with its customers. In a business that emphasizes prompt and efficient service, management believes that the Company's Integrated Computer Systems provide a significant competitive advantage in terms of responding promptly to customer needs. Computer-generated service calls for preventive maintenance are based on previous service history, repeat service call analysis and monitoring of service areas. These systems coordinate the Company's radio-equipped service vehicles and allow the Company to address customer needs quickly and efficiently. Remanufacturing The Company rebuilds and reinstalls a portion of its machines at approximately one-third the cost of acquiring new machines, providing significant cost savings. Remanufactured machines are restored to virtually new condition with the same estimated average life and service requirements as new machines. Machines that can no longer be remanufactured are added to the Company's inventory of spare parts. The Company maintains four regional remanufacturing facilities, strategically located to service each of its operating regions, which provide for consistent machine quality and efficient operations. Revenue Collection and Security Management believes that it provides the highest level of revenue collection security control in the outsourced laundry equipment services industry. The Company utilizes numerous precautionary procedures with respect to cash collection, including frequent alteration of collection patterns, extensive monitoring of collections and other control mechanisms. The Company enforces stringent employee standards and screening procedures for prospective employees. Employees responsible for or who have access to the collection of funds are tested randomly and frequently. Additionally, the Company's security department performs trend and variance analyses of daily collections by location. Security personnel monitor locations, conduct investigations and implement additional security procedures as necessary. Information Management The Company's Integrated Computer Systems serve three major functions: (i) tracing the service cycle of equipment; (ii) monitoring revenues and costs by location, customer and salesperson; and (iii) providing information on competitors' and the Company's lease renewal schedules. The Integrated Computer Systems provide speed and accuracy throughout the entire service cycle by integrating the functions of service call entry, dispatching service personnel, parts and equipment purchasing, installation, distribution and collection. In addition to coordinating all aspects of the service cycle, the Company's Integrated Computer Systems track contract performance, which indicates potential machine problems or pilferage and provides data to forecast future equipment servicing requirements. Data on machine performance is used by the sales staff to forecast revenue by location. Management is able to obtain daily, monthly, quarterly and annual reports on location performance, coin collection, service and sales activity by salesperson. The Integrated Computer Systems also provide the sales staff with an extensive database essential to the Company's marketing strategy to obtain new business through competitive bidding or owner-operator conversion opportunities. 7 Management also believes that the Integrated Computer Systems enhance the Company's ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses into its existing operations. Regional or certain multi-regional acquisitions have typically been substantially integrated within 90 to 120 days, while a local acquisition can be integrated almost immediately. Complementary Operations In addition to supplying outsourced laundry equipment services, the Company has expanded its breadth of operations to related, complementary lines of businesses: Individual Multi-Housing Units The Company is involved in the business of renting laundry equipment and other household appliances and electronic items to corporate relocation entities, property owners, managers of multi-family housing properties and individuals. With access to approximately six million individual housing units, the Company believes this business line represents an opportunity for growth in a new market segment which is complementary to its core business. Laundromat Equipment Distribution Super Laundry, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coinmach Corporation, is a laundromat equipment distribution company. Super Laundry's business consists of constructing complete turnkey retail laundromats, retrofitting existing retail laundromats, distributing exclusive lines of commercial coin and non- coin operated machines and parts, and selling service contracts. Super Laundry's customers generally enter into sales contracts pursuant to which Super Laundry constructs and equips a complete laundromat operation, including location identification, construction, plumbing, electrical wiring and all required permits. Retail Laundromat Operations The Company operates 163 retail laundromats located throughout Texas and Arizona. The operation of the retail laundromats involves leasing store locations in desirable geographic areas, maintaining an appropriate mix of washers and dryers at each store location and servicing the washers and dryers at such locations. The Company is also responsible for maintaining the premises at each retail laundromat and paying for utilities and related expenses. Competition The outsourced laundry equipment services industry is highly competitive, capital intensive and requires reliable, quality service. Despite the overall fragmentation of the industry, the Company believes there are currently three multi-regional route operators, including the Company, with significant operations throughout the United States. The two other major multi-regional competitors are Web Service Company, Inc. and Mac-Gray Corp. Employees As of March 31, 1999, the Company employed 2,045 employees (including 359 laundromat attendants in the Company's retail laundromats in Texas and Arizona). Approximately 136 hourly workers in the Northeast region are represented by Local 966, affiliated with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters (the "Union"). Management believes that the Company has maintained a good relationship with the Union employees and has never experienced a work stoppage since its inception. 8 General Development of Business Coinmach Laundry Corporation was incorporated on March 31, 1995 under the name SAS Acquisitions Inc. in the State of Delaware and is the sole shareholder of all of the common stock of Coinmach Corporation ("Coinmach"), its primary operating subsidiary. In November 1995, The Coinmach Corporation ("TCC"), a Delaware corporation, merged (the "Merger") with and into Solon Automated Services, Inc. ("Solon"). In connection with the Merger, SAS Acquisitions Inc. changed its name to Coinmach Laundry and Solon, the surviving corporation in the Merger, changed its name to Coinmach Corporation. The Company's headquarters are located at 55 Lumber Road, Roslyn, New York 11576, and its telephone number is (516) 484-2300. The Company's mailing address is the same as that of its headquarters. The Company also maintains a corporate office in Charlotte, North Carolina. Initial Public Offering and Secondary Offering In July 1996, Coinmach Laundry completed an initial public offering of 4,120,000 shares of its Common Stock at an initial public offering price of $14.00 per share. In August 1996, the underwriters in the public offering exercised an over-allotment option with respect to the purchase of an additional 63,642 shares of Common Stock. In December 1997, Coinmach Laundry completed a secondary offering of 4,600,000 shares of its Common Stock at a price of $19.75 per share (the "Secondary Offering"), including the issuance of 600,000 shares in connection with the exercise of an underwriters' over- allotment option granted in connection therewith. In connection with the Secondary Offering, 2,665,000 shares of Common Stock were sold by Coinmach Laundry and 1,935,000 shares of Common Stock were sold by certain stockholders of the Company. Credit Facility and Senior Notes In March 1998, the Company's credit facility (of which Bankers Trust Company and First Union National Bank of North Carolina are the primary lending institutions) was amended to provide for an aggregate of $435 million of secured financing consisting of: (i) a $35 million working capital revolving credit facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (ii) a $125 million acquisition revolving credit facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (iii) a $75 million Tranche A term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% and (iv) a $200 million Tranche B term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.50%. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources--Financing Activities--Amended and Restated Credit Facility." On March 28, 1996, Coinmach consummated a registered exchange offer, pursuant to which all issued and outstanding 11 3/4% Senior Notes due 2005 were exchanged for Coinmach's Series B 11 3/4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Series B Notes"). On October 8, 1997, Coinmach completed a private placement of $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 11 3/4% Series C Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Series C Notes") on substantially identical terms as its Series B Notes. On December 23, 1997, Coinmach commenced a registered exchange offer pursuant to which all issued and outstanding Series B Notes and Series C Notes were exchanged for Coinmach's 11 3/4% Series D Senior Notes due 2005 (the "11 3/4% Senior Notes"). See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources--Financing Activities--Senior Note Offering and Exchange Offer." Selected Historical Acquisitions On January 8, 1997, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Kwik Wash Laundries, L.P. and certain related parties (the "Kwik Wash Acquisition") for a purchase price consisting of approximately $125 million in cash, excluding transaction expenses, and a $15 million promissory note (the "Kwik Wash Note") issued by Coinmach Laundry, which was repaid in December 1997. The Kwik Wash Acquisition increased the Company's presence in the South-Central region by adding approximately 74,000 machines to the Company's base and 9 enabled the Company to provide outsourced laundry equipment services to multi- family housing properties in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma and to operate 150 retail laundromats throughout Texas at the time of the acquisition. On March 14, 1997, Coinmach acquired substantially all of the assets of Atlanta Washer & Dryer Leasing, Inc. (d/b/a Appliance Warehouse) (the "Appliance Warehouse Acquisition") for approximately $6.3 million in cash and promissory notes (the "AW Notes") issued by Coinmach Laundry aggregating $1.2 million, excluding transaction expenses. The Appliance Warehouse Acquisition increased the Company's presence in the South by adding approximately 14,000 machines to the Company's base and expanding the Company's core operations into the related machine rental market, creating valuable operating synergies for the Company. The AW Notes were fully repaid as of March 31, 1999. On April 23, 1997, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Reliable Holding Corp., Reliable Laundry Service Inc., Girard-Hopkins Acquisition Corp., Maquilados Automaticas S.A. de C.V. and Automatica S.A. de C.V. and certain other related parties (the "Reliable Acquisition") for a cash purchase price of approximately $44 million, excluding transaction expenses. The Reliable Acquisition was financed through borrowings under the Company's then existing credit facility. The Reliable Acquisition provided the Company with a strong foothold in the California market and added approximately 49,000 machines to the Company's machine base. On July 17, 1997, Coinmach completed the acquisition of National Laundry Equipment Company, Whitmer Vend-O-Mat Laundry Services, Inc. and certain other related parties (the "National Coin Acquisition") for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $19 million, excluding transaction expenses. The National Coin Acquisition, which was financed through borrowings under the Company's then existing credit facility, enabled the Company to further expand its operations by providing laundry equipment services to multi-family housing properties in the states of Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Tennessee, Illinois and Florida, as well as by distributing exclusive lines of commercial coin and non-coin laundry machines and parts. On January 15, 1998, Coinmach completed the acquisition of the route business of Apartment Laundries, Inc. ("ALI") (the "ALI Acquisition"), pursuant to which Coinmach acquired substantially all the assets of ALI for a cash purchase price of $16.2 million, excluding transaction expenses, and financed through working capital and borrowings under the Company's then existing credit facility. ALI provided outsourced laundry equipment services for multi-family housing units in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas and Arkansas. On March 2, 1998, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Macke Laundry Service, L.P. and substantially all of the assets of certain related entities (collectively, "Macke") (the "Macke Acquisition") for a cash purchase price of approximately $213 million, excluding transaction expenses. The Macke Acquisition was financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility (as defined) which was amended and restated in connection with such acquisition to provide for additional borrowing capacity on substantially similar terms as its then existing credit facility. The Macke Acquisition enabled the Company to further expand its route operations by providing outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family housing properties throughout the United States and added approximately 236,000 machines to the Company's base. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources--Financing Activities--Amended and Restated Credit Facility." On May 19, 1998, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Cleanco, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Cleanco") (the "Cleanco Acquisition") for a cash purchase price of approximately $23.0 million, excluding transaction expenses, financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. Cleanco, headquartered in Miami, Florida, was a leading provider of coin-operated laundry equipment services in southern Florida. The Cleanco Acquisition added approximately 21,000 machines to the Company's installed base. 10 On June 5, 1998, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Gordon & Thomas Companies, Inc. ("G&T") (the "G&T Acquisition") for a cash purchase price of approximately $58.0 million, excluding transaction expenses and the assumption of certain liabilities. The G&T Acquisition was financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. G&T, headquartered in New Jersey, was a leading provider of outsourced laundry equipment services in the New York metropolitan area. The G&T Acquisition strengthened the Company's presence in the northeastern United States by adding approximately 36,000 machines to the Company's installed base. Recent Developments At a Special Meeting of Stockholders of Coinmach Laundry Corporation (the "Special Meeting") held on June 9, 1998, the Company approved proposals to amend the Company's Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of Coinmach Laundry Corporation's authorized Common Stock from 15,000,000 to 35,000,000 shares and to increase the number of Coinmach Laundry Corporation's authorized Series Preferred Stock from 1,000,000 to 20,000,000 shares. On December 8, 1998, a holder of 240,324 shares of Non-Voting Common Stock, exercised the conversion option to convert those shares into 240,324 shares of Common Stock. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES As of March 31, 1999, the Company leased 64 offices throughout its operating regions serving various operational purposes, including sales and service activities, revenue collection and warehousing. The Company presently maintains its headquarters in Roslyn, New York, leasing approximately 40,000 square feet pursuant to a five year lease terminating April 30, 2001. The Company's Roslyn facility is used for general and administrative purposes and is the operational headquarters for the Northeast regional branch. The Company has an option to purchase the Roslyn facility, which it does not presently intend to exercise. The Company also maintains a corporate office in Charlotte, North Carolina, leasing approximately 3,000 square feet pursuant to a five year lease terminating September 30, 2001. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS On April 8, 1999, Sand v. Coinmach Laundry Corporation, et. al, a purported class action securities fraud lawsuit, was filed in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of New York (the "Federal Securities Action") naming the Company and certain of its executive officers as defendants. The Federal Securities Action was purportedly brought on behalf of all shareholders of the Company who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's common stock during the period August 6, 1997 to September 29, 1998. The complaint in the Federal Securities Action alleges violations of various federal securities laws, including misrepresentations of certain information about the Company. The complaint in the Federal Securities Action seeks damages in unspecified amounts. Although the outcome of this proceeding cannot be predicted, based on the allegations contained in the complaint, management believes that the Federal Securities Action will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. The Company is also party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of such proceedings is not presently determinable, management does not believe that adverse determinations in any or all such proceedings would have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

(footnotes on following page) 13 - -------- (1) EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before deductions for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA for the fiscal years ended March 31, 1999, March 31, 1998 and March 28, 1997 is before the deduction for stock based compensation charges, and EBITDA for the period ended September 29, 1995 is before the deduction for restructuring costs. EBITDA is used by management and certain investors as an indication of a company's ability to service existing debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor has it been presented as an alternative to either (a) operating income (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of liquidity. Given that EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. (2) EBITDA margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of revenues. Management believes that EBITDA margin is a useful measure to evaluate the Company's performance over various sales levels. EBITDA margin should not be considered as an alternative for measurements determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (3) Capital expenditures represent amounts expended for property and equipment, for advance location payments to location owners and for acquisitions. Acquisition capital expenditures represent the amounts expended to acquire local, regional and multi-regional route operators, as well as complementary businesses. Growth capital expenditures represent the amount of capital expended that reflects a net increase in the installed base of machines, excluding acquisitions. Renewal capital expenditures represent the amount of capital expended assuming no net increase in the installed base of machines. (4) For the years ended March 31, 1998 and March 28, 1997, includes approximately $2.3 million and $16.2 million, respectively, of promissory notes issued by Coinmach Laundry related to certain acquisitions. (5) Total debt at March 31, 1999 and March 31, 1998 does not include the premium, net, of $8,023 and $9,258, respectively, recorded as a result of the issuance by Coinmach of $100 million aggregate principal amount of 11 3/4% Series C Senior Notes due 2005 in October 1997. 14 TCC's fiscal year end was March 31, and TCC's predecessor's fiscal year end was December 31, thus creating a three-month transition period. On January 31, 1995, TCC was formed by certain of the Company's current owners, and, accordingly, periods prior to and after January 31, 1995 are reflected as predecessor and successor periods, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following discussion and analysis pertains to the results of operations and financial position of the Company for the 1999 Fiscal Year, the 1998 Fiscal Year and the 1997 Fiscal Year and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in Item 8. General The Company is principally engaged in the business of supplying outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family housing properties. At March 31, 1999, the Company owned and operated approximately 765,000 washers and dryers in approximately 75,000 multi-family housing properties on routes throughout the United States and in 163 retail laundromats located throughout Texas and Arizona. The Company, through Super Laundry, its wholly-owned subsidiary, is also a laundromat equipment distribution company. Sources of Revenue The Company's primary financial objective is to increase its cash flow from operations. Cash flow from operations represents a source of funds available to service indebtedness and for investment in both internal growth and growth through acquisitions. The Company has experienced net losses during the past three fiscal years. Such net losses are attributable in part to significant non-cash charges associated with the Company's execution of its growth strategy, namely, high levels of amortization of contract rights and goodwill related to the addition of new machines and customers through acquisitions accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The Company's most significant revenue source is its route business, accounting for approximately 86% of its revenue. The Company provides outsourced laundry equipment services to locations by leasing laundry rooms from building owners and property management companies, typically on a long- term, renewable basis. In return for the exclusive right to provide these services, most of the Company's contracts provide for commission payments to the location owners. Commission expense (also referred to as rent expense), the Company's single largest expense item, is included in laundry operating expenses and represents payments to location owners. Commissions may be fixed amounts or percentages of revenues and are generally paid monthly. Also included in laundry operating expenses are the costs of machine maintenance and revenue collection in the route business, including payroll, parts, insurance and other related expenses, the costs of sales associated with the equipment distribution business and certain expenses related to the operation of retail laundromats. In addition to commission payments, many of the Company's leases require the Company to make advance location payments to the location owners. These advance payments are capitalized and amortized over the life of the applicable lease. Other revenue sources for the Company include: (i) leasing laundry equipment and other household appliances and electronic items to corporate relocation entities, property owners, managers of multi-family housing properties and individuals (approximately $11.1 million for the 1999 Fiscal Year and $2.9 million for the 1998 Fiscal Year); (ii) operating, maintaining and servicing retail laundromats (approximately $20.2 million for the 1999 Fiscal Year and $21.0 million for the 1998 Fiscal Year); and (iii) constructing complete turnkey retail laundromats, retrofitting existing retail laundromats, distributing exclusive lines of commercial coin and non-coin machines and parts, and selling service contracts (approximately $33.3 million for the 1999 Fiscal Year and $26.6 million for the 1998 Fiscal Year). 17 Results of Operations The following table sets forth for the periods indicated, selected statement of operations data and EBITDA margin, as percentages of revenue:
Year Ended Year Ended Year Ended March 31, 1999 March 31, 1998 March 28, 1997 -------------- -------------- -------------- Revenues......................... 100% 100% 100% Laundry operating expenses....... 65.6 66.9 67.4 General and administrative expenses........................ 1.6 1.9 2.2 Depreciation and amortization.... 22.5 23.2 22.4 Operating income................. 10.1 7.5 6.9 Interest expense, net............ 13.1 13.7 13.0 EBITDA margin.................... 32.8 31.2 30.4
Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 1998 Revenues increased by approximately 56% for the 1999 Fiscal Year as compared to the 1998 Fiscal Year. This improvement in revenues resulted primarily from the Company's execution of its acquisition strategy and increased route revenues resulting from internal expansion. Based on the historical revenues of acquired businesses, the Company estimates that approximately $162.0 million or 90% of its revenue increase for the 1999 Fiscal Year is primarily due to the National Coin Acquisition (July 1997), the ALI Acquisition (January 1998), the Macke Acquisition (March 1998), the Cleanco Acquisition (May 1998) and the G&T Acquisition (June 1998). In addition, during the 1999 Fiscal Year, the Company's installed machine base increased by approximately 23,300 machines from internal growth (excluding the machines added from the above- mentioned acquisitions during such period) as compared to an increase of approximately 19,500 machines from internal growth during the prior year's corresponding period. Included in internal growth are acquisitions of small, local route operators and new customers secured by the Company's sales force. Laundry operating expenses increased by approximately 53% for the 1999 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1998 Fiscal Year. This increase was due primarily to an increase in commission expense, related to the acquisitions mentioned above. However, as a percentage of revenues, laundry operating expenses were approximately 65.6% for the 1999 Fiscal Year as compared to 66.9% for the 1998 Fiscal Year. This change was primarily due to cost efficiencies related to the consolidation of the acquisitions noted above into the Company's operations. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.8 million or 29% for the 1999 Fiscal Year as compared to the 1998 Fiscal Year. The increase for the year was due to various costs and expenses related to (i) the Company's acquisition strategy, including systems development and refinement relating to the integration of prior acquisitions and (ii) accounting, management information systems and other administrative functions associated with the Company's growth. However, as a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 1.6% for the 1999 Fiscal Year as compared to 1.9% for the 1998 Fiscal Year. This change was primarily due to cost efficiencies related to the consolidation of the acquisitions noted above into the Company's operations. Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately 50% for the 1999 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1998 Fiscal Year, due primarily to contract rights and goodwill associated with the acquisitions mentioned above, as well as an increase in capital expenditures with respect to the Company's installed base of machines. Interest expense, net, increased by approximately 48% for the 1999 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1998 Fiscal Year, due primarily to increased borrowing levels under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility in connection with certain acquisitions, as well as the increased interest expense due to the Bond Offering (as defined herein). See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources--Financing Activities--Senior Note Offering and Exchange Offer." 18 EBITDA(/2/) before deduction for stock-based compensation charges was approximately $165.7 million for the 1999 Fiscal Year as compared to approximately $101.4 million for the 1998 Fiscal Year, representing an improvement of approximately 63%. EBITDA margins improved to approximately 32.8% of revenues for the current year compared to approximately 31.2% of revenues for the prior year. These increases were primarily due to the effect of cost efficiencies related to the consolidation of the above mentioned acquisitions into the Company's operations, as well as internal growth. Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Fiscal Year Ended March 28, 1997 Revenues increased by approximately 57% for the 1998 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1997 Fiscal Year. This improvement in revenues resulted primarily from the Company's execution of its acquisition strategy and increased route revenues resulting from internal expansion. Based on the historical revenues of acquired businesses, the Company estimates that approximately $103.0 million of its revenue increase for the 1998 Fiscal Year was primarily due to the Kwik Wash Acquisition (January 1997), the Reliable Acquisition (April 1997) and the National Coin Acquisition (July 1997). The ALI Acquisition (January 1998) and the Macke Acquisition (March 1998) also contributed to the revenue increase, but had minimal impact due to the timing of these transactions. In addition, during the 1998 Fiscal Year, the Company's installed machine base increased by approximately 19,500 machines from internal growth (excluding the machines added from the Macke Acquisition, the Reliable Acquisition, the ALI Acquisition and the National Coin Acquisition during such period) as compared to an increase of approximately 7,500 machines from internal growth during the prior year's corresponding period. Included in internal growth are acquisitions of small, local route operators and new customers secured by the Company's sales force. Laundry operating expenses increased by approximately 56% for the 1998 Fiscal Year as compared to the 1997 Fiscal Year. This increase was due primarily to an increase in commission expense, related to the Macke Acquisition, the Kwik Wash Acquisition, the Reliable Acquisition, the ALI Acquisition and the National Coin Acquisition. General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $1.6 million or 34% for the 1998 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1997 Fiscal Year. The increase for the year was due to various expenses associated with (i) costs and expenses relating to the Company's acquisition strategy, including systems development and refinement relating to the integration of prior acquisitions and (ii) additional expenses, such as accounting, management information systems and other administrative functions related to the Company's growth. However, as a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses were 1.9% for the 1998 Fiscal Year as compared to 2.2% for the 1997 Fiscal Year. Depreciation and amortization increased by approximately 63% for the 1998 Fiscal Year as compared to the 1997 Fiscal Year, due primarily to contract rights and goodwill associated with the Macke Acquisition, the Kwik Wash Acquisition, the Reliable Acquisition, the ALI Acquisition and the National Coin Acquisition, as well as an increase in capital expenditures in respect of the Company's installed base of machines. The extraordinary items for the 1997 Fiscal Year consisted of costs related to the extinguishment of debt in February 1997 and the termination of the then existing revolving credit facility. - -------- (/2/) EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before deductions for interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is used by management and certain investors as an indicator of a company's historical ability to service debt. Management believes that an increase in EBITDA is an indication of a company's improved ability to service existing debt, to sustain potential future increases in debt and to satisfy capital requirements. However, EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows for the period, nor has it been presented as an alternative to either (a) operating income (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities (as determined by generally accepted accounting principles) as a measure of liquidity. Given that EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. 19 Interest expense, net, increased by approximately 66% for the 1998 Fiscal Year, as compared to the 1997 Fiscal Year, due primarily to increased borrowing levels under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility in connection with certain acquisitions, as well as the increased interest due to the Bond Offering. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources--Financing Activities-- Senior Note Offering and Exchange Offer." EBITDA/2/ before deduction for stock-based compensation charges was approximately $101.4 million for the 1998 Fiscal Year as compared to approximately $62.8 million for the 1997 Fiscal Year, representing an increase of approximately 61%. EBITDA margins improved to approximately 31.2% of revenues for the current year compared to approximately 30.4% of revenues for the prior year. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company continues to have substantial indebtedness and debt service requirements. At March 31, 1999, the Company had outstanding long-term debt of approximately $687.5 million (excluding the premium, net, of approximately $8.0 million) and stockholders' equity of approximately $48.0 million. Financing Activities Senior Notes On October 8, 1997, Coinmach completed a private placement (the "Bond Offering") of $100 million aggregate principal amount of Series C Notes on substantially identical terms as its Series B Notes. The gross proceeds from the Bond Offering were $109.875 million, of which $100.0 million represented the principal amount outstanding and $9.875 million represented the payment of a premium. Coinmach used approximately $105.4 million of the net proceeds from the Bond Offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under its senior financing arrangement. On December 23, 1997, Coinmach commenced an offer to exchange (the "Exchange Offer") up to $296.7 million (excluding the premium on the Series C Notes discussed above) of its 11 3/4% Senior Notes for any and all of its Series B Notes and its Series C Notes. The Exchange Offer expired on February 6, 1998, and, as of such date, the holders of 100% of the outstanding Series B Notes and Series C Notes tendered such notes in the Exchange Offer for 11 3/4% Senior Notes. The 11 3/4% Senior Notes, which mature on November 15, 2005, are unsecured senior obligations of Coinmach and are redeemable, at the Company's option, in whole or in part at any time or from time to time, on and after November 15, 2000, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days notice, at the redemption prices set forth in that certain indenture, dated as of November 30, 1995, by and between Coinmach Corporation and Fleet National Bank of Connecticut (formerly, Shawmut Bank Connecticut, National Association), as Trustee (the "Indenture"), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to the date of redemption. The Indenture contains a number of restrictive covenants and agreements, including covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) limitation on indebtedness; (ii) limitation on certain payments (in the form of the declaration or payment of certain dividends or distributions on the capital stock of Coinmach Corporation or its subsidiaries, the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of any capital stock of Coinmach Corporation, the voluntary prepayment of subordinated indebtedness, or an Investment (as defined in the Indenture) in any other person or entity); (iii) limitation on transactions with affiliates; (iv) limitation on liens; (v) limitation on sales of assets; (vi) limitation on sale and leaseback transactions; (vii) limitation on conduct of business; (viii) limitation on dividends and other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; and (ix) limitation on consolidations, mergers and sales of substantially all of the assets of Coinmach Corporation. The events of default under the Indenture include provisions that are typical of senior unsecured debt financings. Upon the occurrence and continuance of certain events of default, the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 11 3/4% Senior Notes may declare all unpaid principal and accrued interest on all of the 11 3/4% Senior Notes to be immediately due and payable. 20 Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined in the Indenture), each holder of 11 3/4% Senior Notes will have the right to require that the Company purchase all or a portion of such holder's 11 3/4% Senior Notes pursuant to the offer described in the Indenture, at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. Amended and Restated Credit Facility The Company's existing credit facility with Bankers Trust Company ("Banker's Trust"), First Union National Bank of North Carolina ("First Union") and certain other lending institutions, as amended (the "Amended and Restated Credit Facility"), provides for an aggregate of $435 million of secured financing consisting of: (i) a $35 million working capital revolving credit facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (ii) a $125 million acquisition revolving credit facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (iii) a $75 million Tranche A term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% and (iv) a $200 million Tranche B term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.50%. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also provides for up to $10 million of letter of credit financings. These interest rates are subject to change from time to time and may increase by 25 basis points or decrease up to 75 basis points based on certain financial ratios set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the working capital revolver and the acquisition revolver mature on December 31, 2003, the Tranche A term loan matures on December 31, 2004 and the Tranche B term loan matures on June 30, 2005. In May 1999, the lenders under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility gave their consent to permit the Company to borrow on or prior to May 28, 1999 up to $12.5 million under the existing acquisition revolver for working capital purposes. Interest on the Company's borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is payable quarterly in arrears with respect to Base Rate Loans and the last day of each applicable interest period with respect to Eurodollar Loans and at a rate per annum no greater than the sum of the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate or the sum of the Applicable Eurodollar Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate (in each case, as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility). At March 31, 1999, the monthly variable LIBOR interest rate was approximately 4.94%. To manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements, relating to its variable rate debt portfolio. On February 23, 1998, the Company entered into a 33 month $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.71%. On March 2, 1998, the Company entered into a 32 month, $100 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with First Union to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under a portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.83% (the "March Swap Agreement"). On April 7, 1998, the Company entered into a 31 month, $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under a portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.75%. On September 15, 1998, the Company amended the March Swap Agreement to increase the notional amount to $175 million and to reduce the fixed monthly LIBOR interest rate to 5.515%. The new expiration date is November 15, 2002. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company's real and personal property. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the Company has pledged to Bankers Trust, as Collateral Agent, its interests in all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the Company may, at its option, convert Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility) into Eurodollar Loans (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility). Interest on the Company's borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is payable at a rate per annum no greater than the sum of the Applicable 21 Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate or the sum of the Applicable Eurodollar Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate (in each case, as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility). The Amended and Restated Credit Facility contains a number of restrictive covenants and agreements, including covenants with respect to limitations on (i) indebtedness; (ii) certain payments (in the form of the declaration or payment of certain dividends or distributions on the capital stock of Coinmach Laundry or its subsidiaries or the purchase, redemption or other acquisition of any capital stock of Coinmach Laundry or its subsidiaries); (iii) voluntary prepayments of previously existing indebtedness; (iv) Investments (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility); (v) transactions with affiliates; (vi) liens; (vii) sales or purchases of assets; (viii) conduct of business; (ix) dividends and other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; (x) consolidations and mergers; (xi) capital expenditures; (xii) issuances of certain equity securities of the Company; and (xiii) creation of subsidiaries. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also requires that the Company satisfy certain financial ratios, including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility contains certain events of default, including the following: (i) the failure of the Company to pay any of its obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility when due; (ii) certain failures by the Company to pay principal or interest on indebtedness or certain breaches or defaults by the Company in respect of certain indebtedness, in each case, after the expiration of any applicable grace periods; (iii) certain defaults by the Company in the performance or observance of the agreements or covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility or related agreements, beyond any applicable cure periods; (iv) the falsity in any material respect of certain of the Company's representations or warranties under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility; (v) certain judgments against the Company; and (vi) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. Operating and Investing Activities The Company's level of indebtedness will have several important effects on its future operations including, but not limited to, the following: (i) a significant portion of the Company's cash flow from operations will be required to pay interest on its indebtedness; (ii) the financial covenants contained in certain of the agreements governing the Company's indebtedness will require the Company to meet certain financial tests and may limit its ability to borrow additional funds or to dispose of assets; (iii) the Company's ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or general corporate purposes may be impaired; and (iv) the Company's ability to adapt to changes in the outsourced laundry equipment services industry and to economic conditions in general could be limited. As the Company has focused on increasing its cash flow from operating activities, it has made significant capital investments, consisting primarily of capital expenditures related to acquisitions, renewals and growth. The Company anticipates that it will continue to utilize cash flows from operations to finance its capital expenditures and working capital needs, including interest payments on its outstanding indebtedness. Capital expenditures for the 1999 Fiscal Year were approximately $184.6 million (including approximately $2.9 million relating to capital lease obligations). Of such amount, the Company spent approximately $97.5 million in acquisition and related transaction costs, primarily due to the G&T Acquisition and the Cleanco Acquisition, and approximately $24.1 million related to the net increase in the installed base of machines of 23,300 machines. The balance of approximately $60.0 million (which consists of machine expenditures, advance location payments and laundry room improvements) was used to maintain the existing machine base in current locations and through replacement of discontinued locations and for general corporate purposes. The full impact on revenues and cash flow generated from capital expended on acquisitions and the net increase in the installed base are not expected to be reflected in the Company's financial results until subsequent reporting periods, depending on certain factors, including the timing of the capital expended. The Company anticipates that capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions and internal growth, will be approximately $64.0 million for the twelve months ending March 31, 2000. Such increase relative to the 1999 Fiscal Year is attributable primarily to the Company's recent acquisition 22 activities. While the Company estimates that it will generate sufficient cash flows from operations to finance anticipated capital expenditures, there can be no assurances that it will be able to do so. The Company's working capital requirements are, and are expected to continue to be, minimal since a significant portion of the Company's operating expenses are not paid until after cash is collected from the installed machines. In connection with certain of the financing agreements governing the Company's indebtedness, the Company is required to make monthly cash interest payments as required by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility and semi-annual cash interest payments as required by the 11 3/4% Senior Notes. Management believes that the Company's future operating activities will generate sufficient cash flow to repay indebtedness outstanding under the 11 3/4% Senior Notes and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility or to permit any necessary refinancings thereof. An inability of the Company, however, to comply with covenants or other conditions contained in the indentures governing the 11 3/4% Senior Notes or in the credit agreement evidencing the Amended and Restated Credit Facility could result in an acceleration of all amounts due thereunder. If the Company is unable to meet its debt service obligations, it could be required to take certain actions such as reducing or delaying capital expenditures, selling assets, refinancing or restructuring its indebtedness, selling additional equity capital or other actions. There is no assurance that any of such actions could be effected on commercially reasonable terms or on terms permitted under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility or the indentures governing the 11 3/4% Senior Notes. Certain Accounting Treatment The Company's depreciation and amortization expenses, aggregating approximately $113.4 million for the 1999 Fiscal Year, have the effect of reducing net income but not operating cash flow. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, a significant amount of the purchase price of businesses acquired by the Company is allocated to "contract rights," which costs are amortized over periods of up to 15 years. Year 2000 Compliance The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer programs that have time-sensitive software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. The Company's comprehensive year 2000 initiative is being managed by a team of internal staff and outside consultants. The team's activities are designed to ensure that there is no adverse effect on the Company's core business operations and that transactions with customers, suppliers and financial institutions are fully supported. During the 1999 Fiscal Year, the Company assessed the year 2000 readiness of its information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems. The Company determined that it needed to modify significant portions of its IT systems so that such systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and beyond. The Company has substantially completed its IT systems transformation and is currently verifying the year 2000 compliance of these systems. In addition, as part of its year 2000 initiative, the Company has contacted its significant suppliers, customers and financial institutions to ensure that those parties have appropriate plans to remediate year 2000 issues where their systems interface with the Company's systems or otherwise impact its operations. The Company is continuing to assess the extent to which its operations are vulnerable should those organizations fail to properly address their year 2000 readiness. Based on this review, the Company does not expect the computer systems of those operations to have a material adverse effect on the Companies operations. While the Company believes its planning efforts are adequate to address the year 2000 issue, there can be no guarantee that its computer systems or the computer systems of other companies on which the Company's systems and operations rely will be converted on a timely basis and will not have a material effect on the operations of the Company. The cost of the year 2000 initiative is not expected to be material to the Company's results of operation, financial condition or the cash flows. 23 Inflation and Seasonality In general, the Company's laundry operating expenses and general and administrative expenses are affected by inflation, and the effects of inflation may be experienced by the Company in future periods. Management believes that such effects will not be material to the Company. The Company's business generally is not seasonal. Forward Looking Statements Certain statements and information contained in this Form 10-K and other reports and statements filed by the Company from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, "SEC Filings") contain or may contain certain forward looking statements and information that are based on the beliefs of the Company's management as well as estimates and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the Company's management. Forward looking statements are those that are not historical facts. When used in SEC Filings, the words "anticipate," "project," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "future," "intend," "plan" and similar expressions, as they relate to the Company or the Company's management, identify forward looking statements. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to the Company's operations and results of operations, competitive factors, shifts in market demand, and other risks and uncertainties that may be beyond the Company's control. Such risks and uncertainties, together with any risks and uncertainties specifically identified in the text surrounding such forward looking statements, include, but are not limited to, the Company's ability to satisfy its debt service requirements, the costs of integration of acquired businesses and realization of anticipated synergies, increased competition, availability of capital to finance capital expenditures necessary to increase and maintain the Company's operating machine base, the rate of growth in general and administrative expenses due to the Company's business expansion, the Company's dependence upon lease renewals, risks of extended periods of reduced occupancy levels, and the ability of the Company to implement its business strategy, including the acquisition and successful integration and operation of acquired businesses. Other risks and uncertainties also include changes or developments in social, economic, business, industry, market, legal and regulatory circumstances and conditions and actions taken or omitted to be taken by third parties, including the Company's stockholders, customers, suppliers, competitors, legislative, regulatory, judicial and other governmental authorities. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, the Company's future performance and actual results of operations may vary significantly from those anticipated, projected, believed, estimated, expected, intended or planned. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company's principal exposure to market risk relates to changes in interest rates on its borrowings. The Company's cash flow would be adversely affected by an increase in interest rates. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had $59.0 million outstanding relating to its variable rate debt portfolio. The Company's future earnings, cash flow and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevalent market rates. Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. If market rates of interest on the Company's variable rate debt increased by 2.0% (or 200 basis points), the Company's annual interest expense would change by approximately $1.2 million, assuming the amount outstanding was $59.0 million, the balance as of March 31, 1999. The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to these risks. On February 23, 1998, the Company entered into a 33-month $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.71%. On March 2, 1998, the Company entered into a 32-month, $100 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with First Union to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under a portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.83%. On April 7, 1998, the Company entered into a 31-month, $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate under a portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility at 5.75%. On September 15, 1998, the Company 24 amended the March 2, 1998 swap agreement with First Union to increase the notional amount to $175 million and to reduce the fixed monthly LIBOR interest rate to 5.515%. The new expiration date is November 15, 2002. The Company's fixed debt instruments are not generally affected by a change in the market rates of interest, and therefore, such instruments generally do not have an impact on future earnings. However, as fixed rate debt matures, future earnings and cash flows may be impacted by changes in interest rates related to debt acquired to fund repayments under maturing facilities. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading purposes and is not exposed to foreign currency exchange risk. ITEM 8.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS To the Board of Directors of Coinmach Laundry Corporation We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Coinmach Laundry Corporation and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1999. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

See accompanying notes. F-7 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 1999 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Coinmach Laundry Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Coinmach Laundry"), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") which includes Coinmach Corporation ("Coinmach"). The Company's core business involves leasing laundry rooms from building owners and property management companies, installing and servicing the laundry equipment and collecting revenues generated from laundry machines. At March 31, 1999, the Company owned and operated approximately 765,000 washers and dryers in approximately 75,000 locations on routes throughout the United States and in 163 retail laundromats located throughout Texas and Arizona. The Company provides laundromat services at all such retail locations. Super Laundry Equipment Corp. ("Super Laundry"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coinmach, is a laundromat equipment distribution company. The Company also leases laundry equipment and other household appliances to corporate relocation entities, individuals, property owners and managers of multi-family housing properties. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Recognition of Revenues The Company has agreements with various property owners that provide for the Company's installation and operation of laundry machines at various locations in return for a commission. These agreements provide for both contingent (percentage of revenues) and fixed commission payments. The Company reports revenues from laundry machines on the accrual basis and has accrued the cash computed to be in the machines at the end of each fiscal year. Super Laundry's customers generally sign sales contracts pursuant to which Super Laundry constructs and equips complete laundromat operations; including location identification, construction, plumbing, electrical wiring and all required permits. Revenue is recognized on the completed contract method. A contract is considered complete when all costs have been incurred and either the installation is operating according to specifications or has been accepted by the customer. The duration of such contracts is normally less than six months. Sales of laundromats amounted to approximately $25.3 million, $21.8 million and $18.8 million in 1999, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. F-8 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Inventories Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consist of the following (in thousands):
March 31, --------------- 1999 1998 ------- ------- Laundry equipment.......................................... $11,785 $ 9,524 Machine repair parts....................................... 4,543 3,906 ------- ------- $16,328 $13,430 ======= =======
Land, Property and Equipment Property, equipment and leasehold improvements are carried at cost and are depreciated or amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the estimated useful lives or lease life, whichever is shorter. Laundry equipment, installation costs and fixtures............ 5 to 8 years Leasehold improvements and decorating costs................... 5 to 8 years Trucks and other vehicles..................................... 3 to 4 years
Upon the sale or retirement of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is included in income. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations currently, and replacements of laundry machines and significant improvements are capitalized. Goodwill and Contract Rights Goodwill, under purchase accounting, represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 15 to 20 years. Contract rights represent amounts expended for location contracts arising from the acquisition of laundry machines on location. These amounts, which arose solely from purchase price allocations, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of expected benefit of 15 years and are based on independent appraisals or present valued future cash flows at prevailing discount rates. Management will evaluate the realizability of the goodwill and contract rights balances (if there are indicators of impairment) based upon the Company's forecasted undiscounted cash flows and operating income. Based upon present operations and strategic plans, management believes that no impairment of goodwill or contract rights has occurred. Advance Location Payments Advance location payments to location owners are amortized on a straight- line basis over the contract term, which generally ranges from 5 to 10 years. Loss Per Share Basic and diluted loss per share for 1999, 1998 and 1997 was calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Conversion of common equivalent shares (stock options) was not assumed since the results would have been antidilutive. F-9 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Employee Stock Options Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," defines a fair value method of accounting for the issuance of stock options and other equity instruments. Under the fair value method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Pursuant to SFAS No. 123, companies are permitted to continue to account for such transactions under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("APB No. 25"), but are required to disclose in the financial statement footnotes, pro forma net (loss) income and per share amounts as if the Company had applied the new method of accounting for all grants made during 1996 and thereafter. SFAS No. 123 also requires increased disclosures for stock-based compensation arrangements. The Company has elected to continue to follow APB No. 25 in accounting for stock options and has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 (see Note 7f). Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Any deferred tax assets recognized for net operating loss carryforwards and other items are reduced by a valuation allowance where it is more likely than not that the benefits may not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long- Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" the Company is required to recognize impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, which is required to be adopted for all fiscal quarters of all fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. SFAS No. 133 will require the Company to recognize all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is a hedge that is eligible for special accounting, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives will either be offset against the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings. Currently, the Company's only exposure to derivatives is interest rate swap transactions (see Note 4b) and, therefore, the Company does not believe SFAS No. 133 will have a significant impact on the earnings and financial position of the Company. The Company will adopt the Statement as required for its first quarterly filing of the year ending March 31, 2001. F-10 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Fiscal Year On March 6, 1998, the Company changed its fiscal year end to the twelve consecutive months ending March 31. The Company's fiscal year had been the 52 or 53 week period ending on the last Friday in March. The impact of this change in 1998 was not material to the financial statements taken as a whole. The year ended March 28, 1997, is referred to as "1997," and the years ended March 31, 1998 and 1999 are referred to as "1998" and "1999," respectively. 2. Business Combinations a. The G&T Acquisition--1999 On June 5, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition (the "G&T Acquisition") of Gordon & Thomas Company, Inc. ("G&T") for a cash purchase price of approximately $58 million, excluding transaction expenses, and the assumption of certain liabilities. G&T operated approximately 36,000 washers and dryers, and provided outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family properties throughout New York and New Jersey. The excess of cost over net tangible assets acquired of approximately $50.2 million has been allocated to contract rights. b. The Macke Acquisition--1998 On March 2, 1998, Coinmach completed the acquisition of Macke Laundry Service Limited Partnership and substantially all of the assets of certain related entities (collectively "Macke") for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $213 million (the "Macke Acquisition"), excluding transaction expenses. Macke operated approximately 236,000 washers and dryers, and provided outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family properties throughout the United States. The excess of cost over the net tangible assets acquired of approximately $135.9 million has been allocated to contract rights. c.

("Kwik Wash"), a Nevada corporation, for approximately $125 million in cash, excluding transaction expenses, and a $15 million promissory note issued by Coinmach Laundry (the "Kwik Wash Acquisition") which was repaid in 1998. KWL and Kwik Wash were the sole partners of Kwik Wash Laundries, L.P. (the "Kwik Wash Partnership"), a Texas limited partnership. The Kwik Wash Partnership, based in Dallas, Texas, provided coin-operated laundry equipment services to multi-family dwellings in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma and operated approximately 150 retail laundromats located throughout Texas at the time of acquisition. The excess of cost over the net tangible assets acquired was allocated to contract rights of approximately $123.3 million, goodwill of approximately $49.4 million and deferred taxes payable of approximately $49.4 million. Simultaneously with the acquisition, KWL, Kwik Wash and the Kwik Wash Partnership merged with and into Coinmach. d. Other Acquisitions During the 1999 fiscal year, the Company made acquisitions of several small route businesses for cash purchase prices aggregating approximately $39.5 million. The excess of cost over the net assets acquired amounted to approximately $33.1 million of which approximately $26.7 million has been allocated to contract rights and approximately $6.4 million has been allocated to goodwill. During the 1998 fiscal year, the Company made acquisitions of several small route businesses or assets of businesses with purchase prices aggregating approximately $84 million, of which the Company paid F-11 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) approximately $81.8 million in cash and $2.3 million in promissory notes issued by the Company, which are included in other long-term debt. The excess of cost over the net assets acquired amounted to approximately $63.6 million of which approximately $47.1 million has been allocated to contract rights and approximately $16.5 million has been allocated to goodwill. During the 1997 fiscal year, the Company made acquisitions of several small route businesses or assets of businesses with purchase prices aggregating approximately $26.3 million, of which the Company paid approximately $25.2 million in cash and $1.2 million in promissory notes issued by the Company which were repaid during 1999. The excess of cost over the net assets acquired amounted to approximately $12 million of which approximately $7.9 million has been allocated to contract rights and approximately $4.1 million has been allocated to goodwill. All acquisitions have been accounted for as purchases and, accordingly, assets and liabilities have been recorded at their estimated fair values at the dates of acquisition and the results of operations are included subsequent to that date. The following table reflects unaudited pro forma combined results of operations of the Company, and the 1998 and 1999 acquired businesses described above as if the acquisitions had taken place at the beginning of 1998 (in thousands except per share data):

F-12 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Notes receivable, which arise from the construction of laundromats, bear interest at a weighted average rate of approximately 10% per annum and mature through 2004. The notes are collateralized by the underlying laundry equipment. The Company periodically sells notes receivable arising from the sale of laundromats to third party finance companies. Included in other receivables are finance reserves, which arise when the Company sells notes and a portion of the proceeds are retained by the finance company. As the notes are collected, the finance companies remit a portion of the collections to the Company. Many of the notes receivable are sold with recourse to the Company (see Note 8). Control of the notes sold with recourse is surrendered by the Company on the date of transfer. The Company generally sells its notes receivables with recourse at cost, recognizing no gain or loss. 4. Debt Debt consists of the following (in thousands):

a. 11 3/4% Senior Notes On October 8, 1997, Coinmach completed a private placement (the "Bond Offering") of $100 million aggregate principal amount of its 11 3/4% Series C Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Series C Notes") on substantially identical terms as its outstanding Series B 11 3/4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Series B Notes"). The gross proceeds from the Bond Offering were $109.875 million, of which $100 million represented the principal amount outstanding and $9.875 million represented the payment of a premium for the Series C Notes. The premium is being amortized as a reduction of interest expense through November 2005. Coinmach used approximately $105.4 million of the net proceeds from the Bond Offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under its senior financing arrangement. On December 23, 1997, Coinmach commenced an offer to exchange (the "Exchange Offer") up to $296.7 million of its registered 11 3/4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "11 3/4% Senior Notes") for any and all of its Series C Notes and its Series B Notes. The Exchange Offer expired on February 6, 1998, and as of such date the holders of 100% of the outstanding Series B Notes and Series C Notes tendered such notes in the Exchange Offer. Interest on the 11 3/4% Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15. The 11 3/4% Senior Notes are redeemable at the option of Coinmach at any time after November 15, 2000 at a price equal to 105 7/8% declining to par if redeemed after November 15, 2002. The 11 3/4% Senior Notes contain certain financial covenants and restrict the payment of certain dividends, distributions or other payments from Coinmach to Coinmach Laundry. In February 1997, Coinmach redeemed all of its outstanding 12 3/4% Senior Notes. In connection therewith, Coinmach recognized an extraordinary charge of $296,000 in 1997 (net of a tax benefit of $206,000). b. Credit Facility The Company's existing credit facility with Bankers Trust Company ("Banker's Trust"), First Union National Bank of North Carolina ("First Union") and certain other lending institutions, as amended (the F-13 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) "Amended and Restated Credit Facility"), provides for an aggregate of $435 million of secured financing consisting of: (i) a $35 million working capital revolver currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (ii) a $125 million acquisition revolver currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%; (iii) a $75 million Tranche A term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.25% and (iv) a $200 million Tranche B term loan facility currently bearing interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 2.50%. The Amended and Restated Credit Facility also provides for up to $10 million of letter of credit financings. These interest rates are subject to change from time to time and may increase by 25 basis points or decrease up to 75 basis points based on certain financial ratios set forth in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the working capital revolver and the acquisition revolver mature on December 31, 2003, the Tranche A term loan facility matures on December 31, 2004 and the Tranche B term loan facility matures on June 30, 2005. In May 1999, the lenders under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility gave their consent to permit the Company to borrow on or prior to May 28, 1999 up to $12.5 million under the existing acquisition revolver for working capital purposes. Interest on the Company's borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is payable quarterly in arrears with respect to Base Rate Loans and the last day of each applicable interest period with respect to Eurodollar Loans and at a rate per annum no greater than the sum of the Applicable Base Rate Margin plus the Base Rate or the sum of the Applicable Eurodollar Margin plus the Eurodollar Rate (in each case, as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Facility). Subject to the terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the Company may, at its option convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar loans. At March 31, 1999, the monthly variable LIBOR interest rate was approximately 4.94%. The Company entered into swap agreements to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates relating to its variable rate debt portfolio. On February 23, 1998, Coinmach entered into a 33 month $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust, to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate at 5.71% on the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The fair value of this swap transaction at March 31, 1999, as estimated by a dealer, was approximately $584,000 unfavorable and at March 31, 1998 it was approximately $217,000 favorable. On March 2, 1998, Coinmach entered into a 32 month, $100 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with First Union, to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate at 5.83% on a portion of the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The fair value of this swap transaction at March 31, 1998, as estimated by a dealer was approximately $47,000 favorable. On September 15, 1998, the Company amended the March 2, 1998 swap agreement with First Union to increase the notional amount to $175 million and to reduce the fixed monthly LIBOR rate to 5.515%. The new expiration date is November 15, 2002. The fair value of this swap transaction at March 31, 1999, as estimated by a dealer, was approximately $203,000 unfavorable. On April 7, 1998, the Company entered into a 31 month, $75 million notional amount interest rate swap transaction with Bankers Trust, to fix the monthly LIBOR interest rate at 5.75% on the Amended and Restated Credit Facility. The fair value of this swap transaction at March 31, 1999, as estimated by a dealer, was approximately $633,000 unfavorable. Indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is secured by all of the Company's real and personal property. Under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, the Company has pledged to Bankers Trust, as Collateral Agent, its interests in all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Coinmach. In addition to certain terms and provisions, events of default, as defined, and customary restrictive covenants and agreements, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility contains certain covenants including, but not limited to, a maximum leverage ratio, a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, and limitations on indebtedness, capital expenditures, advances, investments and loans, mergers and acquisitions, dividends, stock issuances and F-14 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) transactions with affiliates. Also, the indenture governing the 11 3/4% Senior Notes and the Amended and Restated Credit Facility limit Coinmach's ability to pay dividends. Debt outstanding under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility as of March 31, 1999, consisted of the following (in thousands): Term loan A, quarterly payments of $250 increasing to $5,000 on March 31, 2003 and $12,500 on March 31, 2004 (Interest rate of approximately 7.19% at March 31, 1999).......................... $ 73,750 Term loan B, quarterly payments of $500 with the final payment of $186,000 on June 30, 2005 (Interest rate of approximately 7.44% at March 31, 1999).............................................. 198,000 Acquisition revolving line of credit............................. 94,646 Working capital revolving line of credit......................... 17,607 -------- $384,003 ========
5. Retirement Savings Plans Coinmach maintains several defined contribution plans meeting the guidelines of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. All of the plans require employees to meet certain age, employment status and minimum entry requirements as allowed by law. The Company made contributions for 1999, 1998 and 1997 to pension plans that cover its union employees. These plans provide defined benefits based on union members' earnings and period of coverage under the respective plans. However, in the event these plans terminate, or if the Company discontinues its participation in these plans, the Company may be liable for a portion of the plans' unfunded vested benefits, the amounts of which, if any, have not been determined. Contributions to all the plans for 1999, 1998 and 1997 amounted to approximately $339,000, $281,000 and $140,000, respectively. The Company does not provide any other post-retirement benefits. 6. Income Taxes The components of the Company's net deferred tax liabilities are as follows (in thousands):
March 31, --------------- 1999 1998 ------- ------- Deferred tax liabilities: Accelerated depreciation and contract rights.............. $95,882 $90,273 Other, net................................................ 3,057 1,086 ------- ------- 98,939 91,359 ------- ------- Deferred tax assets: Net operating loss carryforwards.......................... 14,032 10,357 Stock compensation expense................................ 1,460 982 AMT credit................................................ 1,156 -- Covenant not to compete................................... 797 509 ------- ------- 17,445 11,848 ------- ------- $81,494 $79,511 ======= =======
F-15 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. These temporary differences arise primarily from the use of accelerated depreciation for tax purposes and straight-line depreciation for financial reporting purposes, and contract rights acquired which are not deductible for tax purposes. The net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $34 million, after a reduction to reflect the limitation imposed under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding change of ownership, expire between fiscal years 2001 through 2019. In addition, the net operating losses are subject to annual limitations imposed under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code regarding changes in ownership. The benefit for income taxes consists of (in thousands):

7. Stockholders' Equity At March 31, 1999, Coinmach Laundry has authorized Common Stock of 35,000,000 shares and authorized Series A Preferred Stock of 20,000,000 shares. a. Secondary Offering On December 19, 1997, Coinmach Laundry completed a secondary offering (the "Secondary Offering") of 4,600,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $19.75 per share (including the issuance of 600,000 shares in connection with the exercise of an underwriters' over-allotment option granted in connection therewith). In connection with the Secondary Offering, 2,665,000 shares were sold by Coinmach Laundry and 1,935,000 shares were sold by certain stockholders of the Company. The Company did not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares by selling stockholders. Proceeds generated from the Secondary Offering were approximately $49.9 million, after underwriting discounts and commissions and before expenses. F-16 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) b. Initial Public Offering On July 23, 1996, the Company completed its initial public offering (the "Offering") of 4,120,000 shares of its Common Stock at an initial public offering price of $14.00 per share. In connection with the Offering, the underwriters were granted a 30-day option to purchase up to an aggregate of 618,000 additional shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments (the "Over-Allotment Option"), which Over- Allotment Option was exercised on August 16, 1996 with respect to the purchase of an additional 63,642 shares of Common Stock. Proceeds from the Offering were approximately $54.5 million (after giving effect to the exercise of the Over-Allotment Option), after underwriting discounts and commissions and before expenses. After giving effect to the redemption of the Preferred Stock (as described below), proceeds from the Offering were approximately $35.3 million, before expenses. Prior to the Offering, the Company issued, in privately negotiated transactions, 79,029 shares of its Class B common stock to certain members of management. The Company recorded a stock based compensation charge in an amount of approximately $887,000 attributable to the issuance of such stock in 1997. In addition, approximately $104,000 of outstanding receivables relating to loans to management in connection with prior purchases of the Company's common stock were forgiven. This forgiveness and subsequent forgivenesses have been accounted for as a stock-based compensation charge in 1999, 1998 and 1997. c. Reclassification and Stock Split In connection with the Offering, the Company approved a reclassification (the "Reclassification") of all of its capital stock pursuant to which all seven classes of the previously issued and outstanding capital stock of the Company prior to the Offering were converted into a class of preferred stock, a class of voting common stock and a class of non-voting common stock. As part of the Reclassification, holders of the Company's Class A common stock, Class E common stock and Class F common stock immediately prior to the Offering (collectively, the "Preference Shares") also received a distribution consisting of shares of Common Stock and shares of Series A preferred stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), representing an amount equal to the sum of: (a) preferred dividends on such Preference Shares in an amount equal to the accrued yield (at a rate of 8% per annum, compounded quarterly) on the original investment in such Preference Shares through July 23, 1996; and (b) an amount equal to the original investment in such Preference Shares. Holders of Preference Shares who are members of the Company's management received an aggregate of 28,425 shares of Common Stock, and holders of the Preference Shares who were not members of the Company's management received an aggregate of 1,000 shares of Preferred Stock. In connection with the Reclassification, the Company also approved an approximate 23-to-1 stock split (the "Stock Split") payable to shareholders of record of the Company on July 12, 1996. d. Redemption of Preferred Stock Immediately following the Offering, approximately $19.2 million of the proceeds of the Offering were used by the Company to retire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Preferred Stock. e. Conversion of Stock On December 8, 1998, a holder of 240,324 shares of non-voting Class B Common Stock exercised the conversion option to convert those shares into 240,324 shares of Common Stock. F-17 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) f. Stock Option Plan Prior to the Offering, the Company adopted the 1996 Employee Stock Option Plan (as amended and restated, the "Stock Option Plan") which provides that the Company may grant stock options for the purchase of up to 1,109,147 shares of Common Stock to key employees of the Company over a period not to exceed ten years. The Company may grant incentive stock options at an exercise price per share not less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the date of grant and stock options at an exercise price per share not less than the average closing price of the Common Stock for the thirty consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of grant. All stock options granted under the Stock Option Plan vest over four years in five equal installments (20% immediately) and expire ten years from the date of grant. Through March 31, 1999, the Company had granted 502,250 options to various employees of the Company pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, of which 248,500 were granted during 1999. During July and September 1996, in connection with the Offering, the Company granted certain nonqualified stock options (the "1996 Options") to certain members of management (collectively, the "Option Holders") to purchase up to 739,437 shares of Common Stock at 85% of the initial offering price of the Common Stock. The 1996 Options vest in equal annual installments (20% vested immediately on the date of grant and the remainder over a four year period) commencing on July 23, 1996, the effective date of the Offering. On September 17, 1996, the Company granted to two of its disinterested directors, each of whom was appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company on such date to serve as independent directors, stock options entitling each such director to purchase up to 60,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Independent Director Options"). The Independent Director Options vest in equal annual installments (25% vest immediately on the date of grant and the remainder over a three year period), commencing on September 17, 1996, and entitle each such director to purchase shares of Common Stock at the initial public offering price of the Common Stock. On September 5, 1997, the Company granted to certain members of management certain non-qualified options (the "1997 Options") to purchase up to 200,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.90 per share of Common Stock. The 1997 Options vest in equal annual installments (20% vest immediately on the date of grant and the remainder vest over a four year period) commencing on September 5, 1997. During May and July 1998, the Company granted to certain employees 248,500 non-qualified stock options pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and 31,244 non- qualified stock options (collectively, the "1998 Options") to a director of the Company at exercise prices ranging from $22.31 to $23.05 per share. Such options vest in equal annual installments (20% vest immediately on the date of grant and the remainder vest over a four year period). The Company records the difference between the exercise price of all options granted and the respective initial offering price or the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant as a stock-based compensation charge over the applicable vesting period. For 1999, 1998 and 1997, the Company recorded stock-based compensation charges of approximately $1,153, $1,342 and $1,161, respectively (in thousands), relating to the 1996 Options, the 1997 Options, the 1998 Options and the Independent Director Options. The Company has elected to comply with APB No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options because the alternate fair value accounting provided for under SFAS No. 123 requires use of option valuation models which were not developed for use in valuing such employee stock options. Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is recognized only when the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options is less than the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. F-18 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) In accordance with SFAS No. 123, pro forma information regarding net loss and loss per common share has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the fair value method required by SFAS No. 123. The fair value for these options was estimated at the date of each grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for 1999, 1998 and 1997: risk-free interest rate of 5.2%, 5.9% and 6.6%; dividend yields of 0%, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of 24.5% and a weighted-average expected life of the options of five years. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. In management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options due to changes in subjective input assumptions which may materially affect the fair value estimate, and because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options. For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting periods. The Company's pro forma net loss and net loss per share are as follows:

g. Employee Stock Purchase Plan In July 1999, the Company is planning to implement an Employee Stock Purchase Plan that has been established as part of its voluntary defined contribution plan for all employees meeting certain eligibility criteria.

F-20 COINMACH LAUNDRY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued) The Company utilizes third party letters of credit to guarantee certain business transactions, primarily certain insurance activities. The total amount of the letters of credit at March 31, 1999 and 1998 were approximately $4.9 million and $5.3 million, respectively. On April 8, 1999, Sand v. Coinmach Laundry Corporation, et. al, a purported class action securities fraud lawsuit, was filed in the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of New York (the "Federal Securities Action") naming the Company and certain of its executive officers as defendants. The Federal Securities Action was purportedly brought on behalf of all shareholders of the Company who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company's common stock during the period August 6, 1997 to September 29, 1998. The complaint in the Federal Securities Action alleges violations of various federal securities laws, including misrepresentations of certain information about the Company. The complaint in the Federal Securities Action seeks damages in unspecified amounts. Although the outcome of this proceeding cannot be predicted, based on the allegations contained in the complaint, management believes that the Federal Securities Action will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. The Company is also party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the ultimate disposition of such proceedings is not presently determinable, management does not believe that adverse determinations in any or all such proceedings would have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. In connection with insurance coverages, which include workers compensation, general liability and other coverages, annual premiums are subject to limited retroactive adjustment based on actual loss experience. 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company is required to disclose fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate the value. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, the Amended and Restated Credit Facility, and other long-term debt approximates their fair market value at March 31, 1999. The carrying amount, and related estimated fair value for the Company's 11 3/4% Senior Notes at March 31, 1999 are as follows (in thousands):
Carrying Estimated Amount Fair Value -------- ---------- 11 3/4% Senior Notes (including premium of $8,023)... $304,678 $326,706
The fair value of the 11 3/4% Senior Notes is based on quoted market prices. 10. Other Assets In connection with the Company's establishment of a corporate office in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the relocation of an executive officer of the Company to such office in September 1996, the Company extended a loan to such officer in the principal amount of $500,000 payable in ten equal annual installments commencing in July 1997 (each payment date, a "Payment Date"), with interest accruing at a rate of 7.5% per annum. The Company has authorized that payment of principal and interest will be forgiven on each Payment Date. The balance of such loan of $400,000 and $450,000 is included in other assets as of March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. On May 5, 1999, the Company extended a loan to an executive officer of the Company in the principal amount of $250,000 to be repaid in a single payment on the third anniversary of such loan with interest accruing at a rate of 8% per annum.
