NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 1999
1. The condensed and consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 1999 and
the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three
months ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 are unaudited, but in the
opinion of the Company, include all adjustments, consisting only of
normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the
results for the interim periods. Certain footnote disclosures usually
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been omitted. It is suggested that
these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report to
Shareholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999.
2. Earnings per share is computed in accordance with the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings per
Share. Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted average
common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the
potential dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants.
3. In fiscal 1999, the Company completed the acquisitions of two
environmental engineering and consulting companies and one
transportation engineering and consulting firm, as more fully described
on pages 14 and 15 of the Company's 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders.
Accordingly, the following unaudited pro forma information for the
three months ended September 30, 1998 presents summarized results of
operations as if the acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of that
period after giving effect to adjustments, including amortization of
costs in excess of the net assets acquired, increased interest expense
on acquisition borrowings and related income tax effects (in thousands,
except per share amount):

The pro forma financial information does not purport to be indicative
of the results of operations that would have occurred had the
acquisitions taken place at the beginning of the period, nor do they
purport to be indicative of the results that will be obtained in the
future.
In connection with the acquisition of Alton Geoscience, Inc. which was
completed in fiscal 1999, the Company accrued at September 30, 1999
additional purchase consideration of approximately $.8 million in
accordance with the terms of the agreement.

4. The Company recently entered into several long-term contracts under its
Exit Strategies(TM) program which involve the transfer of liability for
remediation of environmental conditions at a site from the
responsible parties to the Company. In exchange, the responsible
parties have entered into a fixed fee contract with the Company in an
amount based on the estimated cost of remediation. The Company
generally assumes the risk for all remediation costs for pre-existing
site conditions and believes that through in-depth technical analysis,
comprehensive cost estimation and creative remedial approaches it is
able to execute pricing strategies which protect the Company's return
on these projects. As additional protection, the Company obtains
remediation cost cap insurance from rated insurance companies which
provides coverage for cost increases arising from unknown or changed
conditions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Three Months Ended September 30, 1999 and 1998
OVERVIEW
TRC Companies, Inc. provides technical, financial risk management and
construction services to industry and government primarily in the United States
market. The Company's main focus is in the areas of infrastructure improvements
and expansions, environmental management and information technology.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company, in the course of providing its services, routinely subcontracts
drilling, laboratory analyses, construction equipment and other services. These
costs are passed directly through to clients and, in accordance with industry
practice, are included in gross revenue. Because subcontractor costs and direct
charges can vary significantly from project to project, the Company considers
net service revenue, which is gross revenue less subcontractor costs and direct
charges, as its primary measure of revenue growth.
The following table presents the percentage relationships of certain items in
the consolidated statements of operations to net service revenue.

</TABLE>

<PAGE>
The revenue growth trend established in fiscal 1998 continued. Net service
revenue increased by 41% to $18.1 million during the three months ended
September 30, 1999, compared to $12.9 million in the same period last year. The
increase was due to a combination of internal growth and the additional revenue
from acquisitions made in fiscal 1999.
Direct labor and fringe benefit costs also increased by approximately 41% during
the three months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to the same period last
year, primarily due to the increase in net service revenue. Indirect costs and
expenses increased by approximately 39% during the three months ended September
30, 1999, as compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily
due to the additional operating costs associated with the businesses acquired in
fiscal 1999. However, as a percentage of net service revenue, these costs
decreased to 38.2% from 38.7% last year.
General and administrative expenses increased by approximately 16% during the
three months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to the same period last year.
The increase was primarily due to the acquisitions made in fiscal 1999. However,
as a percentage of net service revenue, these costs decreased to 3.8% from 4.7%
last year.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately 12% during the
three months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to the same period last year.
This increase was due to the additional depreciation expense on the equipment of
businesses acquired in fiscal 1999 and to the additional amortization of costs
in excess of the net assets of the acquired businesses.
Income from operations increased by approximately 85% to $1.6 million during the
three months ended September 30, 1999, as compared to $.9 million during the
same period last year. The continued improvement in operating performance was
primarily due to the growth in revenue, without comparable increases in
operating overhead.
Interest expense increased during the three months ended September 30, 1999,
as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher levels of
debt outstanding because of acquisitions completed in fiscal 1999.
The provision for federal and state income taxes reflects an effective rate of
36% for the three months ended September 30, 1999, compared to an effective rate
of 38% in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower
state income taxes. The Company believes that there will be sufficient taxable
income in future periods to enable utilization of available deferred income tax
benefits.
IMPACT OF INFLATION
The Company's operations have not been materially affected by inflation or
changing prices because of the short-term nature of many of its contracts, and
the fact that most contracts of a longer term are subject to adjustment or have
been priced to cover anticipated increases in labor and other costs.

<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company relies on cash provided by operations and borrowings based upon the
strength of its balance sheet to fund operations. The Company's liquidity is
assessed in terms of its overall ability to generate cash to fund its operating
and investing activities, and to reduce debt. Of particular importance in the
management of liquidity are cash flows generated from operating activities,
acquisitions, capital expenditure levels and an adequate bank line of credit.
Cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended September 30,
1999 was approximately $.3 million. The cash generated by net income and the
non-cash charges against income for depreciation and amortization was offset by
the increase in accounts receivable due to the growth in revenue as well as
higher income tax and interest payments.
Investing activities used cash of approximately $.8 million during the three
months ended September 30, 1999, consisting primarily of expenditures for
additional information technology and other equipment to support business
growth. The Company expects to make capital expenditures of approximately $1.5
million during the remainder of fiscal 2000.
The Company maintains a bank financing arrangement to assist in funding various
operating and financing activities. The Company has available a $15 million
revolving credit facility secured by accounts receivable which expires July
2001. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at the bank's base rate or
the Eurodollar rate plus 1 3/4%. The agreement requires the Company to meet
certain financial ratios. At September 30, 1999, outstanding borrowings pursuant
to the agreement were $8 million, at an average interest rate of 7.3%. The
Company also had outstanding at September 30, 1999 a $.4 million 7 3/4%
subordinated note issued in connection with the purchase of Hydro-Geo
Consultants, Inc. in March 1998. The note is repayable in four remaining equal
installments.
On July 1, 1999, the Company repaid the final $3.5 million installment on the
subordinated note issued in March 1994 in connection with the acquisition of
Environmental Solutions, Inc., with cash provided by the revolving credit
facility.
The Company expects to increase its available cash flow over the remainder of
fiscal 2000, primarily from operations and from reductions in working capital
derived mainly from the collection of accounts receivable. The cash generated
from operations, the cash on hand at September 30, 1999 and available borrowings
under the bank line of credit will be sufficient to meet the Company's cash
requirements for the remainder of fiscal 2000.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
The Company recognizes the need to ensure that its critical management,
financial and operating systems will recognize and process transactions for the
year 2000 and beyond. As a result, all computer systems and applications have
been reviewed and, where appropriate, detailed plans have been developed,
implemented and tested. The costs specific to the Year 2000 issue are not
expected to have a material impact on the Company's future operating results,
financial condition or cash flows.
-10-
<PAGE>
Although the Company expects to be fully Year 2000 compliant on a timely basis,
if system modifications and conversions are not effective, or if the Company's
critical suppliers and customers do not address this issue successfully, the
Year 2000 issue could possibly have a material impact on the Company's
operations and financial condition.
The Company has developed contingency plans to be implemented as part of its
efforts to identify and mitigate any Year 2000 issues. The contingency plans
deal with the most likely worst-case scenarios and will be updated, as
appropriate, through December 31, 1999.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that describe the Company's
business prospects. These statements involve risks and uncertainties including,
but not limited to, regulatory uncertainty, government funding, level of demand
for the Company's services, industry-wide competitive factors and political,
economic or other conditions. Furthermore, market trends are subject to changes
which could adversely affect future results.
