PART I
ITEM 1.    BUSINESS.

General

Morrison  Management  Specialists,  Inc.,  (the  "Company"  or "MMS"),  formerly
Morrison Health Care,  Inc.,  became an  independent,  publicly owned company in
March 1996 as a result of the  distribution  (the  "Distribution")  by  Morrison
Restaurants Inc., a Delaware corporation ("MRI"), to its shareholders of all the
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the
Distribution,  MRI's stockholders received one share of Company common stock for
every three shares of MRI stock held.

     MMS is the nation's only company  focused  exclusively  on providing  food,
nutrition and dining services to the healthcare and senior living markets. It is
the nation's  second largest  outsourcing  provider in the healthcare and senior
living  industries.  Its clients include acute care  hospitals,  health systems,
nursing homes and retirement facilities.

Morrison Healthcare Food Services

Morrison  Healthcare  Food  Services  manages  on-site  facilities  and provides
comprehensive  nutritional  programs for patients and high-quality retail dining
options for staff and visitors of hospitals and integrated  healthcare  systems.
MMS offers its clients programs  designed to reduce costs and increase  customer
satisfaction.  The Company's healthcare foodservice operations originated in the
early 1950s.  The Company expanded through its own marketing and sales force and
by acquiring other foodservice  businesses.  MMS's healthcare  accounts range in
size from 100 bed specialty hospitals to facilities with over 1,500 beds.

     Through its  Advanced  Culinary  System(TM)  the Company  continues to make
advances in cook-chill technology and centralized food production. These systems
are  designed to increase  productivity,  enhance  food  quality and reduce food
waste,  thereby making healthcare food production more economical for the client
and more  appealing to the customer at  healthcare  facilities  nationwide.  MMS
currently has two Advanced Culinary  Centers(TM) which utilize  centralized food
production and cook-chill technology in operation and one under construction.

     MMS   operates   "branded   concept"   restaurants,   such  as   Subway(R),
Chick-Fil-A(R) and Healthy Choice(R),  on client premises.  These small versions
("kiosk"  type) of the licensed  restaurant  concepts  are operated  pursuant to
license arrangements with the appropriate restaurant company. Currently, MMS has
17 license  arrangements  with nationally and regionally  recognized  restaurant
companies.  In  addition,  MMS operates its own brand - Spice of Life(TM) - with
menus and recipes that can be customized to local tastes.

Morrison Senior Dining

Due to  changing  demographics  and  lifestyles  and the  increasing  number  of
retirement facilities being constructed,  the Company believes the senior living
market is the fastest  growing segment of the healthcare  industry.  The Company
has  emphasized  its  commitment to provide food and  nutrition  services to the
senior  living  market by  acquiring,  over the past three fiscal  years,  three
companies in the field: Drake Management Services, Inc. in January 1998, Spectra
Services,  Inc. in March 1998,  and Culinary  Service  Network,  Inc. in October
1998.

     Dedicated  to  providing  dining  services  to senior  living  communities,
Morrison  Senior  Dining  helps  clients  control  costs while  making  informed
decisions from kitchen and dining room design to menu selection. Morrison Senior
Dining  accounts  range in size from 100 residents to 600  residents.  Believing
that this market is  under-penetrated  and rapidly expanding,  the Company plans
for  future  growth  in  the  senior  living  market  to  result  from  internal
development.

Operations

MMS offers its services  pursuant to two general types of contracts:  (i) profit
and loss (or guaranteed cost) contracts, where MMS assumes the risk of profit or
loss for the foodservice operation and (ii) management fee contracts,  where the
client  reimburses  MMS for all or nearly all costs  incurred in  providing  the
services contracted plus a negotiated management fee for supervising the
<PAGE>4

client's food and nutrition services. In addition, some management fee contracts
include  incentives  and  penalties  with  the  amount  of  the  management  fee
determined  in  whole  or in part by the  achievement  of  predetermined  goals.
Approximately  60% of MMS's  accounts are operated  pursuant to  management  fee
contracts.  The  majority  of  MMS's  contracts  were  awarded  through  bidding
processes.

     In June 2000,  MMS formed a strategic  alliance with, and made a $3 million
investment  in,  foodbuy.com,  a forerunner in developing the business model for
Internet  food  purchasing.  Management  believes the alliance will leverage the
combined  purchasing  and  technology  resources  which  will  lower  food costs
resulting in savings for MMS's clients.

Research and Development

The Company does not engage in any material research and development activities.
Numerous  studies are made,  however,  on a continuing  basis, to improve menus,
equipment and methods of operations.

Raw Materials

Raw materials  essential to the operation of the Company's business are obtained
principally  through  national food  distributors.  The Company uses  short-term
purchase  commitment  contracts to stabilize the  potentially  volatile  pricing
associated  with certain  commodities.  Because of the relatively  short storage
life of inventories,  limited storage  facilities at customer  locations,  MMS's
requirements  for freshness and the numerous  sources of goods, a minimum amount
of inventory is maintained at customer  locations.  If necessary,  all essential
food,  beverage and operational  products are available and can be obtained from
alternative suppliers in all cities where the Company operates.

Trademarks of the Company

The Company has registered  certain trademarks and service marks with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office including the Pro-Health Dining(R) trademark.
The Company  believes  that this and other related  marks,  such as its Advanced
Culinary  System(TM)  and Advanced  Culinary  Center(TM),  are  important to its
business.  Registrations of the Company's  trademarks  expire from 2002 to 2009,
unless renewed.

Seasonality

The Company's revenues are not seasonal to any significant degree.

Working Capital Practices

Cash provided by operations, along with borrowings under the Company's revolving
lines of credit,  are used to pay  dividends,  invest in new units and  renovate
existing units.

     Additional  information  concerning  the working  capital of the Company is
incorporated herein by reference to information  presented within the "Liquidity
and Capital  Resources"  section of  "Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of
Financial  Condition and Results of  Operations"  of the  Company's  2000 Annual
Report to Stockholders.

Customer Dependence

Concentration of business and credit risk is generally  limited due to the large
number of customers  that make up the Company's  customer  base,  thus spreading
risk.

     During fiscal year 2000,  the Company was awarded a new five-year  contract
to provide food and nutrition services to over 60 of Tenet HealthSystem Medical,
Inc.'s ("Tenet") hospitals. The revenue from the Tenet accounts for fiscal years
2000,  1999 and  1998 was  $69.2  million,  $23.2  million  and  $12.0  million,
respectively. These revenues accounted for 15.7%, 7.2% and 4.8% of total revenue
for fiscal years 2000, 1999 and 1998,  respectively.  Tenet accounts  receivable
accounted  for 12.9% and 6.8% of total  accounts  receivable at May 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively.

Government Contracts

There is no  material  portion  of the  Company's  business  that is  subject to
renegotiation  of profits or  termination of contracts or  sub-contracts  at the
election of the Government.

<PAGE>5

Competition

The healthcare food and nutrition services business is highly  competitive.  The
Company  competes with national and regional food contract  companies that offer
the same type of services as the Company.  Management  believes that competition
in healthcare food and nutrition  services and senior living markets is based on
pricing,  quality  of  services  and  reputation.  Management  believes  that it
compares favorably with its competition in these areas.

Government Compliance

The Company is subject to various regulations at both the state and local levels
for items such as sanitation,  health and fire safety, all of which could affect
the operation of existing  accounts.  The Company's  business is also subject to
various other  regulations at the federal level such as fair labor standards and
occupational  safety and health  regulations.  Compliance with these regulations
has not had,  and is not  expected  to have,  a material  adverse  effect on the
Company's operations.

Environmental Compliance

Compliance with federal,  state and local laws and  regulations  which have been
enacted or adopted  regulating the discharge of materials into the  environment,
or otherwise  relating to the protection of the environment,  is not expected to
have a material  effect upon the capital  expenditures,  earnings or competitive
position of the Company.

Personnel

The Company employs approximately 10,000 full-time and part-time employees.  The
Company believes that working conditions are favorable and employee compensation
is comparable with its competition.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES.

MMS professionally  manages foodservice  departments on client-owned  properties
and,  therefore,  does not own any  significant  amounts  of  property.  Vending
services on client-owned  facilities  complement the foodservice program.  Under
the terms of certain  contracts,  MMS is required  to make rent  payments to its
clients.

     The corporate  headquarters are located in approximately 20,000 square feet
of a leased building in a suburb of Atlanta,  Georgia.  The headquarters'  lease
term ends in 2001.  The  Company  also has  administrative  offices  in a leased
building in Mobile,  Alabama.  This  office has a lease term ending in 2001.  In
addition,  the Company has set up strategic  regional  offices across the United
States to service the needs of Company team members and clients  located  within
that region.

     During fiscal year 1998,  MMS  constructed  two advanced  food  preparation
facilities or "Advanced  Culinary Centers" (ACC) to utilize its expertise in the
cook-chill  food  processing.  The first  facility,  located in Tampa,  Florida,
includes  about 5,000  square feet of light  industrial  space with a lease term
ending in 2002. The second facility,  located in Baltimore,  Maryland,  includes
approximately  15,000 square feet of light industrial and regional office space.
A new ACC in Charlotte, North Carolina is currently under construction.

Facilities and equipment are repaired and  maintained to assure their  adequacy,
productive capacity and utilization.

<PAGE>6

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is presently,  and from time to time,  subject to pending claims and
suits  arising  in the  ordinary  course  of its  business.  In the  opinion  of
Management,  the ultimate resolution of these pending legal proceedings will not
have a material  adverse  effect on the  Company's  operations  or  consolidated
financial position.

ITEM 4.  SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS.

None.
