1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

    Coinmach Laundry Corporation ("Coinmach Laundry"), a Delaware corporation,
through its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"), is the
leading supplier of outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family
housing properties throughout the United States.  The Company's core business
involves leasing laundry rooms from building owners and property management
companies, installing and servicing the laundry equipment and collecting

approximately 753,000 washers and dryers in approximately 75,000 locations on
routes throughout the United States and in 150 retail laundromats located

2.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
the Company have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles ("GAAP") for interim financial reporting and pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, such
financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  GAAP requires the Company's
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported
therein.  Actual results could vary from such estimates.  The interim results
presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
for the entire year.

    In the opinion of management of the Company, these unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments of a normal recurring
nature necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for the
interim periods presented.

    These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in
Coinmach Laundry's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 1998.

    Certain prior year's balances have been reclassified to conform with the
1998 presentation.


3.  LOSS PER SHARE

    Basic and diluted loss per share for each of the three and six months ended
September 30, 1998 was calculated based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding of 13,167,783.  Basic and diluted loss per share for
each of the three and six months ended September 26, 1997 was calculated based
upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding of 10,484,926.
Conversion of common equivalent shares (stock options) was not assumed since the
results would have been antidilutive.

4.  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

    On April 1, 1998, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards
Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 130
"Reporting Comprehensive Income."  SFAS No. 130 establishes new rules for the
reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components; however, the
adoption of SFAS No. 130 had no impact on the Company's net loss or
stockholders' equity. The Company does not have any elements of comprehensive
income which would be required to be included in its financial statements.

5.  LONG-TERM DEBT

    At September 30, 1998, Coinmach Corporation ("Coinmach"), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Coinmach Laundry, had outstanding long-term debt consisting of (a)
approximately $296.7 million of 11 3/4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Senior
Notes") and (b) $273.3 million of term loans and approximately $108.6 million of
a revolving line of credit under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility.
Indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility is secured by all of
the Company's real and personal property. Coinmach Laundry has guaranteed the
indebtedness under the Amended and Restated Credit Facility and pledged to
Bankers Trust Company, 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, 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 transactions with affiliates. Also, the indenture governing the
Senior Notes and the Amended and Restated Credit Facility limit Coinmach's
ability to pay dividends .


6.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    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.

million, after underwriting discounts and commissions and before expenses.

    B.  STOCK OPTION PLAN

    Prior to the Company's initial public offering in July 1996 (the "Initial
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 which do not qualify as incentive 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% vest immediately on the date of grant and the
remainder over a four year period) and expire ten years from the date of grant.

    Through September 30, 1998, the Company has granted 502,250 stock options to
various employees of the Company pursuant to the Stock Option Plan, of which
248,500 were granted during the past fiscal six months.

    During July and September, 1996, in connection with the Initial Offering,
Coinmach Laundry granted certain non-qualified stock options to certain members
of management to purchase up to 739,437 shares of Common Stock at 85% of the
initial offering price of the Common Stock.  Such options vest in equal annual
installments (20% vest immediately on the date of grant and the remainder over a
four year period) commencing on July 23, 1996, the effective date of the Initial
Offering.  The Company records the difference between the exercise price of such
options and the initial offering price of Common Stock as a stock-based
compensation charge over the applicable four year vesting period.

    On September 17, 1996, Coinmach Laundry granted to certain directors, each
of whom was appointed by the Board of Directors of Coinmach Laundry 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.  The Company records the difference between the exercise price of
the Independent Director Options and the fair market value of the Common Stock
on September 17, 1996 as a stock-based compensation charge over the applicable
three year vesting period.

    On September 5, 1997, Coinmach Laundry granted to certain members of
management certain non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 200,000 shares
of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.90 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) commencing on September 5, 1997.  The
Company records the difference between the exercise price of such options and
the fair market value of

the Common Stock on September 5, 1997 as a stock-based compensation charge over
the applicable four year vesting period.

    On May 4, 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 to a director of the Company at an exercise price of
$22.30938 per share.  Such options vest in equal annual installments (20% vest
immediately on June 10, 1998 and the remainder vest over a four year period).
The Company records the difference between the exercise price of such options
and the fair market value of the Common Stock on May 4, 1998 as a stock-based
compensation charge over the applicable four year vesting period.

    For the six months ended September 30, 1998 and September 26, 1997, the
Company has recorded a stock-based compensation charge of approximately $618,000
and $545,000, respectively, relating to the options described above.

7.  ACQUISITIONS - 1998

    On May 19, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Cleanco, Inc. and
certain of its affiliates ("Cleanco") for a cash purchase price of approximately
$23.0 million, excluding transaction expenses (the "Cleanco Acquisition"),
financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit
Facility.  Cleanco, headquartered in Miami, Florida, was a leading provider of
outsourced laundry equipment services in southern Florida.  The Cleanco
Acquisition added approximately 21,000 machines to the Company's installed base.

    On June 5, 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of Gordon & Thomas
Companies, Inc. ("G&T") for a cash purchase price of approximately $58 million,
excluding transaction expenses (the "G&T Acquisition") and the assumption of
certain liabilities.  This transaction 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.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

    Except for the historical information contained herein, certain matters
discussed in this document are forward-looking statements that involve certain
risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties discussed below,
as well as other risks set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended March 31, 1998.

GENERAL
- -------

    The Company, through its operating subsidiaries, is principally engaged in
supplying outsourced laundry equipment services to multi-family housing
properties.  The Company owns and operates approximately 753,000 washers and
dryers in approximately 75,000 multi-family housing properties on routes
throughout the United States and 150 retail laundromats located throughout
Texas.

    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 servicing and
collecting in the route business, including, payroll, parts, vehicles and other
related items, the cost 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, individual property owners and managers of multi-family
housing properties (approximately $5.2 million and $1.5 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1998 and September 26, 1997, respectively); (ii)
operating, maintaining and servicing retail laundromats (approximately $9.4
million and $10.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 1998 and
September 26, 1997, respectively); and (iii) constructing complete turnkey
retail laundromats, retrofitting retail laundromats, distributing exclusive
lines of commercial coin and non-coin operated machines and parts, and selling
service contracts (approximately $14.5 million and $12.4 million for the six
months ended September 30, 1998 and September 26, 1997, respectively).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- ---------------------

    The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the attached
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and with
the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year
ended March 31, 1998.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS (continued)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
- ---------------------

COMPARISON OF THE THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 AND
SEPTEMBER 26, 1997

    Revenues increased by approximately 61% and 62% for the three and six month
periods ended September 30, 1998, as compared to the prior year's corresponding
periods.  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 $84.2 million of its
revenue increase for the current six month period is primarily due to the
National Coin Acquisition (as defined) in July 1997, the ALI Acquisition (as
defined) in January 1998, the Macke Acquisition (as defined) in March 1998, the
Cleanco Acquisition in May 1998 and the G&T Acquisition in June 1998.  In
addition, during the current six month period, the Company's installed machine
base increased by approximately 15,600 machines from internal growth (excluding
the machines added from the Cleanco Acquisition and the G&T Acquisition during
such period) as compared to an increase of approximately 9,400 machines 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 58% and 59% for the
three and six month periods ended September 30, 1998, as compared to the prior
year's corresponding periods.  The increase was due basically to an increase in
laundry operating expenses (primarily commission expense) related to the
National Coin Acquisition, the ALI Acquisition, the Macke Acquisition, the
Cleanco Acquisition and the G&T Acquisition.

    General and administrative expenses increased by approximately $0.6 million
and $1.1 million for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1998,
as compared to the prior year's corresponding periods.  The increase for the
periods 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 1.6% for both
the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1998 as compared to 1.8% and
2.0% for the prior year's corresponding periods.

    Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by approximately 56% and
59% for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 1998, as compared to
the prior year's corresponding periods due primarily to the contract rights and
goodwill associated with the above-mentioned acquisitions, as well as an
increase in capital expenditures with respect to the Company's installed base of
machines.

    During 1996 and 1997, the Company granted to certain members of management
of the Company and certain other individuals non-qualified options to purchase
shares of Common Stock at a 15% discount to the initial offering price of the
Common Stock.  With respect to such options granted to its employees, the
Company records such discount as a stock-based compensation charge over the
applicable four year vesting period.  The Company also granted to two of its
disinterested directors

Independent Director Options to purchase up to a total of 120,000 shares of
Common Stock.  The Company records the difference between the exercise price of
such options and the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant
as a stock-based compensation charge over the applicable three year vesting
period. On May 4, 1998, the Company granted 248,500 non-qualified stock options
to certain employees pursuant to the Stock Option Plan and 31,244 non-qualified
stock options to a director of the Company at an exercise price of $22.30938 per
share. Such options vest in equal annual installments (20% vest immediately on
June 10, 1998 and the remainder vest over a four year period). The Company
records the difference between the exercise price of such options and the fair
market value of the Common Stock on May 4, 1998 as a stock-based compensation
charge over the applicable four year vesting period. During the six months ended
September 30, 1998 and September 26, 1997, the Company recorded a stock-based
compensation charge of approximately $618,000 and $545,000, respectively,
relating to these options.

    Operating income margins were approximately 9.8% and 9.7% for the three and
six month periods ended September 30, 1998, as compared to approximately 7.3%
and 7.6% for the three and six month period ended September 26, 1997.

    Interest expense, net, increased by approximately 52% and 54% for the three
and six month periods ended September 30, 1998, as compared to the prior year's
corresponding periods due primarily to increased borrowing levels under the
Amended and Restated Credit Facility in connection with certain acquisitions, as
well as increased interest expense due to the offering by the Company of $100
million aggregate principal amount of 11 3/4% Series C Senior Notes due 2005
(the "Series C Notes") in October 1997.

    EBITDA (earnings before deductions for interest, income taxes, depreciation
and amortization) before deduction for the stock-based compensation charges was
approximately $79.2 million for the six months ended September 30, 1998, as
compared to approximately $46.6 million for the corresponding period in 1997,
representing an improvement of approximately 70%.  EBITDA margins improved to
approximately 32.6% for the six months ended September 30, 1998, compared to
approximately 31.1% for the prior year's corresponding period.  EBITDA is used
by 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 the 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
GAAP) as an indicator of operating performance or (b) cash flows from operating,
investing and financing activities (as determined by GAAP) as a measure of
liquidity.  Given that EBITDA is not a measurement determined in accordance with
GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, EBITDA as presented may
not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS (continued)

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

    The Company continues to have substantial indebtedness and debt service
requirements.  At September 30, 1998, the Company had outstanding long-term debt
(excluding the premium on the Series C Notes) of approximately $686.3 million
and stockholders' equity of approximately $52.7 million.

    The Company's level of indebtedness will have several important effects on
its future operations, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) a
significant portion of the Company's cash flow from operations will be required
to pay interest on its indebtedness; (b) 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; (c) 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 (d) the
Company's ability to adapt to changes in the outsourced laundry equipment
services industry and to economic conditions in general will be limited.

    As the Company has focused on increasing its cash flow from operating
activities, it has made significant capital investments primarily consisting of
capital expenditures related to acquisitions, renewal 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 six
months ended September 30, 1998 were approximately $129.2 million.  Of such
amount, the Company spent approximately $86.1 million in acquisition and related
transaction costs, primarily due to the Cleanco Acquisition and the G&T
Acquisition, and approximately $14.3 million related to the net increase in the
installed base of machines of approximately 15,600 machines.  The balance of
approximately $28.8 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.  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, Coinmach is required to make monthly cash interest payments as
required by the Amended and Restated Credit Facility and semi-annual cash
interest payments on the Senior Notes.

    Management believes that the Company's future operating activities will
generate sufficient cash flow to repay indebtedness outstanding under the 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 under the Amended and Restated Credit
Facility

or contained in the indenture governing the Senior Notes 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, if at all, or on terms permitted under the
Amended and Restated Credit Facility or the indenture governing the Senior
Notes.

    The Company's depreciation and amortization expenses (aggregating
approximately $55.1 million for the six months ended September 30, 1998) have
the effect of reducing net income but not operating cash flow.  In accordance
with GAAP, 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 15 years.

SUMMARY OF RECENT ACQUISITIONS

    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"), pursuant to which Coinmach
acquired substantially all the assets of ALI for a cash purchase price of $16.2
million, excluding transaction expenses (the "ALI Acquisition").  The ALI
Acquisition was 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") for a cash purchase price of approximately $213 million,
excluding transaction expenses (the "Macke Acquisition").  The Macke Acquisition
was financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit
Facility, which was amended and restated in connection with such acquisition to
provide for additional borrowing capacity on substantially similar terms.  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.

- -------------------------------            

    On May 19, 1998, Coinmach completed the Cleanco Acquisition.  The Cleanco
Acquisition was financed with cash and borrowings under the Amended and Restated
Credit Facility.  Cleanco, headquartered in Miami, Florida, was a leading
provider of outsourced laundry equipment services in southern Florida.  The
Cleanco Acquisition added approximately 21,000 machines to the Company's
installed base.

    On June 5, 1998, Coinmach completed the G&T Acquisition which 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.

    As part of its business strategy, the Company will continue to evaluate
opportunities to acquire local, regional and multi-regional route businesses.
There can be no assurance that the Company will find attractive acquisition
candidates or effectively manage the integration of acquired businesses into its
existing business.

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 have not been nor will be material to the Company.  The Company's
business does not exhibit material seasonality fluctuations.

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      From time to time, the Company has been, and expects to continue to be,
subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business.
Although the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to these
actions can not be accurately predicted, management believes that any such
liability, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.
