stock for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended October 1, 2000 and October
3, 1999, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share
calculation as their impact would have been antidilutive.
8. SHARES REPURCHASED
The Board of Directors of both the Company and of Wackenhut Corrections
authorized the repurchase, at the discretion of each company's senior
management, of up to 0.5 million shares of the Company's Series B common stock
and 1.0 million shares of Wackenhut Corrections common stock, respectively. In
February 2000, the Board of Directors of Wackenhut Corrections authorized, in
addition to that previously authorized, the repurchase of up to 0.5 million
shares of its common stock. All of the Company's common stock repurchases have
been retired and result in a reduction of stockholders' equity. Wackenhut
Corrections' repurchases of shares of common stock are recorded as a reduction
to additional paid-in capital and minority interest. As of January 2, 2000, the
Company had bought back 196,400 shares of the Company's Series B common stock at
an average price of $15.48, and Wackenhut Corrections repurchased 878,000 shares
of Wackenhut Corrections common stock at an average price of $19.13 per share.
From January 3, 2000 to October 1, 2000, WHC had repurchased an additional
500,000 shares of its common stock at an average price of $9.87 per share.
Page 11 of 28
<PAGE> 12
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In Travis County, Texas, a grant jury indicted twelve of WHC's former facility
employees for various types of sexual misconduct at the Travis County Community
Justice Center. Eleven of the twelve indicted former employees already resigned
from or had been terminated by WHC as a result of WHC initiated investigations
over the course of the prior three years. WHC is not providing counsel to
assist in the defense of these twelve individuals. Management believes these
indictments are not expected to have any material financial impact on the
Company. The District Attorney in Travis County continues to review WHC
documents for alleged document tampering at the Travis County Facility. At
this time, WHC cannot predict the outcome of this investigation or the
potential impact on WHC's financial position and results of operations.
In New Mexico, WHC has been in discussions with the State's Department of
Corrections and Legislative Finance Committee and has submitted proposed
contract modifications regarding additional compensation for physical plant
modification and increased staffing at Guadalupe County Correctional Facility
and Lea County Correctional Facility which have been or are in the process of
being implemented by WHC. At this time no agreement has been reached regarding
these contract modifications.
During 1998, WHC entered into a contract with the State of Florida Department of
Children and Families ("DCF") to design and construct a new 350-bed South
Florida State Psychiatric Hospital for approximately $35 million. WHC also
entered into a separate contract to manage the operations of an existing 350-bed
facility prior to and during construction of the new facility and to manage the
operations of the new facility upon construction completion. The construction
phase of the contract is near completion. However, WHC has incurred additional
costs of approximately $1.8 million beyond the initial scope of the construction
contract through October 1, 2000. WHC is in the process of negotiating with DCF
to recover these additional costs. DCF has indicated a willingness to allow for
funds to be raised through additional bond completion certificates to pay for
these additional costs. DCF can provide no assurances that it will be able to
complete the potential bond offering or secure alternative funding. Accordingly,
WHC has deferred the profit on the construction of the facility.
10. JENA CHARGE
On January 7, 2000, WHC exercised the right to acquire the 276-bed Jena
Juvenile Justice Center (the "Facility") in Jena, Louisiana from the trust of
WHC's operating lease facility and, simultaneously sold it to Correctional
Properties Trust ("CPV"). This Facility is being leased back to WHC
under a 10-year non-cancelable operating lease.
On May 17, 2000, the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections had
removed all inmates from the Facility and WHC terminated the employment of the
Facility staff. The cooperative agreement for such Facility was terminated
effective June 30, 2000.
WHC has recorded an operating charge of $3.8 million ($2.3 million after tax, or
$0.11 (eleven cents) per share), that represents the losses to be incurred on
the lease with CPV. WHC's management estimates that the Facility will remain
inactive through the end of 2001. After taking into consideration the minority
shareholders' interest, this charge, effected the Company's earnings per share
by $0.08 (eight cents).
WHC is continuing its efforts to sublease or find an alternative use for the
Facility. If WHC is unable to sublease or find an alternative use for the
Facility, there could be an adverse impact on WHC's and the Company's financial
positions and future results of operations.
11. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
The Company's principal segments are grouped based on similarity of business
services provided and the type of customer for which these services are offered.
These services consist of global security services, correctional services and
flexible staffing services. The Company is a major provider of global business
Page 12 of 28
<PAGE> 13
services which include security-related and other support services to business
and government, a leading developer and manager of privatized correctional,
detention and public sector mental health services facilities, and a provider of
employee leasing and temporary staffing. For segment reporting, the accounts of
the Company's captive insurance company have been included in unallocated
corporate expenses. Intersegment transactions are accounted for on an
arms-length basis and are eliminated in consolidation. Direct general and
administrative expenses are allocated based on usage.

in South America, the United Kingdom and Australia. No individual foreign
subsidiary of the Company represented over 10% of combined revenues through the
third quarters of 2000 and 1999. Minority interest in consolidated foreign
subsidiaries has been reflected, net of applicable income taxes, in the
accompanying financial statements. The Company carries its investment in
affiliates (20% to 50% owned) under the equity method. U.S. income taxes, which
would be payable upon remittance of affiliates' earnings to the Company, are
provided currently. Long-lived assets consist of property, plant and equipment.

12. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The Statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument
(including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be
recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its
fair value. SFAS 133 requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be
recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are
met. In June 2000, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 138 ("SFAS 138"), "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain
Hedging Activities, an Amendment of SFAS 133." SFAS 138 addresses a limited
number of issues causing implementation difficulties for numerous entities that
apply SFAS No. 133 and amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133
for certain derivative instruments and certain hedging activities. SFAS 133, as
amended by SFAS 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15,
2000. In management's opinion, the impact of adopting SFAS 133 and 138 will not
have a material impact upon the Company's results of operations or financial
position.
In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue
Recognition" ("SAB No. 101"), which provides guidance on the recognition,
presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the
SEC. SAB No. 101 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize
revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition
policies. An amendment in June 2000 delayed the effective date until the fourth
quarter of 2000. The Company is currently assessing SAB No. 101's impact related
to award fee based contracts, principally with the Federal government. If the
Company determines that its revenue recognition methods for award fee based
contracts must change, the Company would be required to record a cumulative
change in accounting principle charge of approximately $0.8 million, net of tax,
when SAB No. 101 is implemented in the fourth quarter of 2000. Additionally,
quarterly results would be impacted by this change. In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, the cumulative effect of the change in
accounting principle would be retroactively adopted as of the beginning of the
first quarter of 2000.

THE WACKENHUT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: Management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition, results of operations, market risk and the November 3, 2000 press
release contain forward-looking statements that are based on current
expectations, estimates and projections about the segments in which the Company
operates. This section of the quarterly report also includes beliefs and
assumptions made by management. Words such as "expects," "anticipates,"
"intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," and variations of such
words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and
involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions ("future factors") which
are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ
materially from what is expressed or forecasted in such forward-looking
statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
events or otherwise.
Future factors include: increasing price and product/service competition by
foreign and domestic competitors, including new entrants; rapid technological
developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new
products and services on a timely, cost effective basis; the mix of
products/services; the achievement of lower costs and expenses; domestic and
foreign governmental and public policy changes, including environmental
regulations; protection and validity of patent and other intellectual property
rights; reliance on large customers; technological, implementation and
cost/financial risks in increasing use of large, multi-year contracts; the
outcome of pending and future litigation and governmental proceedings and
continued availability of financing; and financial instruments and financial
resources in the amounts, at the times and on the terms required to support the
Company's future business. These are representative of the future factors that
could affect the outcome of the forward-looking statements. In addition, such
statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and
growth rates, general domestic and international economic conditions, including
interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations and other future factors.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Wackenhut Corporation, a Florida corporation, and subsidiaries (the
"Company"), including Wackenhut Corrections Corporation ("WHC"), a 57% owned
public subsidiary, is a major provider of global business services which include
security-related and other support services to business and government, a
leading developer and manager of privatized correctional, detention and public
sector mental health services facilities, and a provider of employee leasing and
temporary staffing. Security Services has expanded into a range of support
services to include security operations, facility management, fire and emergency
medical services and food service to private and publicly managed correctional
facilities. The Security Services business is organized into North American
Operations and International Operations. Wackenhut Corrections designs,
constructs, finances and manages correctional, detention and mental health
psychiatric facilities and performs separate correctional-related services,
including prisoner transportation, home detention monitoring and correctional
health care. During the past four years, the Company has established a national
presence in the flexible staffing business, which includes personnel employee
leasing, temporary services, recruiting, risk management, payroll processing and
human resource services.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Reference is made to pages 26 through 32 of the Company's Annual Report to
Shareholders, filed as Exhibit 13.0 with the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2000, for further discussion and
analysis of information pertaining to the Company's financial condition.
LIQUIDITY
Cash and cash equivalents at October 1, 2000 of $36.2 million decreased $30.8
million from January 2, 2000. Cash provided by operating activities amounted to
$15.9 million through the third quarter 2000, versus $5.5 million used in
operating activities in the third quarter 1999. Cash used in investing
activities amounted to $39.9 million through the third quarter 2000 versus $11.6
million for the same period in the prior year, primarily reflecting capital
expenditures which were offset by proceeds from the sale of prison facilities to
Correctional Properties Trust ("CPV") in the prior year. Cash used in financing
activities through the third quarter 2000 amounted to $3.4 million compared to
$17.3 million provided by financing activities through the third quarter 1999.
As of October 1, 2000, the net amount available to the Company from its existing
revolving credit and accounts receivable securitization facilities after
deducting $69.5 million accounts receivable sold under TWC's securitization
agreement, $44.2 million of outstanding letters of credit, and $3.3 million of
revolving loans was $53.0 million. Some of the Company's outstanding letters of
credit are in support of international operations. Management continually
monitors the operations of its subsidiaries and affiliates. If adverse
conditions were to arise at these international operations, this could have an
adverse impact on the Company's cash position.
On November 13, 2000 the Company entered into a new, three year, Credit Facility
increasing the Company's borrowing capacity from $95 million to $112.5 million.
Interest rates as negotiated under this new agreement will be approximately 125
basis points higher than under the Company's agreement in place prior to
November 13, 2000. The Company, subject to mutual agreement, intends to
refinance its accounts receivable securitization facility, which matures within
one year.
As of October 1, 2000, approximately $123.6 million of WHC's $220.0 million
operating lease facility, established to acquire and develop new correctional
facilities, was outstanding for properties under development. Also as of October
1, 2000, WHC had $14.0 million outstanding of its $30.0 million revolving credit
facility for the funding of construction projects. WHC's access to capital and
ability to compete for future capital intensive projects is dependent upon,
among other things, its ability to meet certain financial covenants included in
the $220.0 million operating lease facility and $30.0 revolving credit facility.
A substantial decline in WHC's financial performance as a result of an increase
in operational expenses relative to revenue could negatively impact WHC's
ability to meet these covenants, and could therefore limit WHC's access to
capital.
With the completion of the remaining properties under development, WHC will have
consumed its available capacity under the operating lease facility. WHC is
exploring other financing alternatives for future project development such as
the sale of facilities to government entities, the third-party sale and
leaseback of facilities, and the issuance of taxable or nontaxable bonds by
local government entities.
Page 17 of 28
<PAGE> 18
On January 7, 2000, WHC exercised the right to acquire the 276-bed Jena Juvenile
Justice Center (the "Facility") in Jena, Louisiana from the trust of WHC's
operating lease facility and, simultaneously sold it to CPV. This Facility is
being leased back to WHC under a 10-year non-cancelable operating lease. On May
17, 2000, the Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections ("LDPSC")
removed all inmates from the Facility and WHC terminated the employment of the
Facility staff. The cooperative agreement for such Facility was terminated
effective June 30, 2000. WHC has recorded an operating charge of $3.8 million
($2.3 million after tax, or $0.11 (eleven cents) per share), that represents the
losses to be incurred on the lease with CPV. WHC's management estimates that the
Facility will remain inactive through the end of 2001. After taking into
consideration the minority shareholders' interest, this charge effected the
Company's earnings per share by $0.08 (eight cents). WHC is continuing its
efforts to sublease or find an alternative use for the Facility. If WHC is
unable to sublease or find an alternative use for the Facility, there could be
an adverse impact on WHC's and the Company's financial positions and future
results of operations.
MARKET RISK
The Company is exposed to market risks, including changes in interest rates and
currency exchange rates. These exposures primarily relate to outstanding
balances under the revolving line of credit and securitization facilities and
international investments. In addition, WHC is exposed to market risks arising
from changes in interest rates with respect to its $220.0 million operating
lease facility. Based on the Company's interest rate and foreign exchange rate
position at October 1, 2000, a hypothetical 100 basis point change in market
interest rates or a 10% change in the historical currency rates would not have a
material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

COMPARISON OF THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED OCTOBER 1, 2000 AND THIRTEEN WEEKS ENDED
OCTOBER 3, 1999
REVENUES
GLOBAL SECURITY SERVICES
Third quarter 2000 Global Security Services revenues increased $35.4 million, or
13.7%, to $294.6 million from $259.2 million in the third quarter 1999. Revenues
of the North American Operations increased $30.8 million, or 13.8%, to $253.2
million in the third quarter 2000 from $222.4 million in the third quarter 1999.
Revenues were boosted by the start-up in the fourth quarter of 1999 from
security operations at six nuclear power plants in Illinois with annualized
revenues of $19.0 million, the start of an annual $7.0 million contract at the
TMI nuclear unit in Pennsylvania in the first quarter 2000, and operations
initiated in January 2000 at the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge facility
with annualized contract revenues of $75.0 million. There was continued
expansion of revenues from national accounts due to increases in existing
contracts and in other domestic guard services due to increases in existing
contracts and new contracts. International Operations' revenues increased $4.6
million, or 12.5%, to $41.4 million in the third quarter 2000 compared to $36.8
million in the third quarter 1999. Increases in international security revenues
are primarily attributable to growth in the United Kingdom due to new contracts.
Page 19 of 28
<PAGE> 20
CORRECTIONAL SERVICES
Third quarter 2000 Correctional Services revenues increased $23.9 million, or
21.3%, to $135.9 million from $112.0 million in the comparable quarter last
year. Approximately $18.2 million of the increase in revenues in the third
quarter 2000 compared to the third quarter 1999 is attributable to increased
compensated resident days resulting from the opening of five facilities in 1999
and the opening of two facilities in 2000. The number of compensated resident
days in domestic facilities were 2.2 million in the third quarter 2000 and the
third quarter 1999. Compensated resident days in Australian facilities increased
to 435,364 from 267,013 for the comparable periods primarily due to higher
compensated resident days at the immigration detention facilities and the
opening of two such facilities in the fourth quarter 1999. Approximately $6.3
million of the increase in revenues is attributable to the construction of new
facilities. These increases were partially offset by a $4.4 million revenue
decrease due to the loss of two contracts. The balance of the increase is
attributable to facilities open during all of both periods, increases in per
diem rates and an increase of development activities of $1.4 million. The
average facility occupancy in domestic facilities decreased to 97.4% of capacity
in the third quarter 2000 compared to 97.7% in the third quarter 1999 due
primarily to the loss of the two contracts.
FLEXIBLE STAFFING SERVICES
Staffing Services third quarter 2000 revenues increased $33.1 million, or 18.8%,
to $209.4 million from $176.3 million in the comparable quarter last year.
Leased employees grew 16.9% to approximately 34,600 at the end of the third
quarter 2000 from 29,600 at the end of the third quarter 1999. Temporary
placement hours grew 3.2% to approximately 883,000 during the third quarter 2000
from approximately 856,000 during the third quarter 1999.
OPERATING INCOME
Third quarter 2000 consolidated operating income decreased $4.3 million, or
39.4%, to $6.6 million from $10.9 million in the third quarter 1999. The
operating margin for the third quarter 2000 decreased to 1.0% as compared to
2.0% for the third quarter 1999. The operating income and margin decrease are
primarily due to decreases for correctional services. During a period of low
unemployment, some business units may experience difficulty in finding qualified
personnel. This could have an adverse impact on the Company's results of
operations to the extent wages and salaries increase at a faster rate than the
per diem or fixed rate received by the Company for its services. Management
continually monitors the operations of its subsidiaries and affiliates. If
conditions were to arise that indicate an impairment of one of these
investments, this could have an adverse impact on the Company's results of
operations.
GLOBAL SECURITY SERVICES
The operating income of the security services business increased $1.8 million,
or 25.4%, to $8.9 million in the third quarter 2000 from $7.1 million for the
comparable quarter last year. North American Operations' operating income
increased $2.0 million, or 33.3%, to $8.0 million in the third quarter 2000 from
$6.0 million in the third quarter 1999. The increase in operating income of the
North American Operations can be attributed mainly to increased revenue growth.
The operating income of North American Operations as a percentage of revenues
increased 46 basis points to 3.2% in the third quarter 2000 compared to the
third quarter 1999. This increase is primarily attributable to improved
operations in Wackenhut Services, Inc., improved margins in commercial security
services and reduced
Page 20 of 28
<PAGE> 21
overhead costs. International Operations' operating income decreased $0.2
million to $0.9 million in the third quarter 2000 from $1.1 million in the third
quarter 1999.
CORRECTIONAL SERVICES
Third quarter 2000 operating income decreased $5.1 million, or 72.9%, to $1.9
million from $7.0 million in the comparable period in 1999. As a percentage of
revenue, operating income decreased to 1.4% in the third quarter 2000 from 6.3%
in the third quarter 1999. This decrease is primarily due to WHC reporting a
third quarter operating charge of $3.8 million ($2.3 million after tax, or
$0.11 (eleven cents) per share), related to the de-activation of the Jena,
Louisiana facility. After taking into consideration the minority shareholders'
interest, this charge, effected the Company's earnings per share by $0.08 (eight
cents). WHC estimates this facility will remain inactive through the end of
2001. There were also additional expenses at six facilities in the United
States. WHC has developed strategies to improve the operational performance of
these facilities; however, there can be no assurances that these strategies will
be successful. In addition, there has been an adverse trend in the development
of general liability claims experience, and although WHC is developing a
strategy to improve the management of loss claims incurred, there can be no
assurances that this strategy will be successful. As a result, WHC has incurred
additional operating expenses related to general comprehensive liability
insurance. WHC continues to incur this additional insurance expense which could
have an adverse impact on WHC's and the Company's future financial results of
operations.
FLEXIBLE STAFFING SERVICES
The operating income of Staffing Services was $1.0 million in both the third
quarter 2000 and the third quarter 1999.
UNALLOCATED CORPORATE EXPENSES
Unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses increased $1.0 million
or 23.8% to $5.2 million for the third quarter 2000 from $4.2 million in the
third quarter 1999. This increase over the prior year was due principally to
increases in corporate staff payroll and payroll related expenses and increases
in senior executive retirement plan costs. However, as a percentage of
consolidated revenues, unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses
remained the same at 0.8% in the third quarters of both 2000 and 1999.
OTHER INCOME/EXPENSE
The Company incurred other expense of $0.8 million in the third quarter 2000
compared to other income of $0.2 in the third quarter 1999. Investment income
decreased $0.5 million to $0.8 million in the third quarter 2000 from $1.3
million in the third quarter 1999 primarily due to WHC recognizing a lower
return on investments in overseas projects due to sale of loans in the fourth
quarter 1999 and the second quarter 2000. Interest expense increased $0.1
million to $1.6 million in the third quarter 2000 from $1.5 million in the third
quarter 1999. This increase is primarily attributable to increased interest
expense related to the increase in the securitized accounts receivables and the
revolver loan along with higher interest rates.
INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES
Third quarter 2000 income before taxes decreased $4.9 million to $5.8 million
from $10.7 million in the third quarter 1999.
Page 21 of 28
<PAGE> 22
EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation
and amortization, was $13.4 million, or 2.1% of revenues for the third quarter
2000, which was $3.3 million, or 19.8%, lower than the third quarter 1999.
EBITDA does not necessarily indicate that cash flow is sufficient to fund all
the Company's cash needs or represent cash flow from operations as defined by
generally accepted accounting principles.
INCOME TAXES
The combined federal and state effective income tax rate was 40.0% for the first
three quarters of 2000 and 39.8% for the first three quarters of 1999.
MINORITY INTEREST
Minority interest (net of income taxes) decreased $1.5 million to $1.2 million
in the third quarter 2000 from $2.7 million in the third quarter 1999,
reflecting principally the decrease in earnings of WHC.
EQUITY INCOME OF AFFILIATES
Equity income of affiliates (net of income taxes) increased $0.1 million to $1.8
million in the third quarter 2000 from $1.7 million in the third quarter 1999.
NET INCOME
Net income was $4.1 million for the third quarter 2000, or $0.27 basic earnings
per share, as compared to $5.4 million, or $0.36 basic earnings per share for
the same period in 1999. Earnings per share on a diluted basis was $0.27 in the
third quarter 2000 compared to $0.35 per share for the same period in 1999.
Goodwill amortization, after tax, amounted to $0.04 million and $0.3 million for
the third quarter 2000 and third quarter 1999, respectively. Excluding goodwill
amortization, after tax, basic earnings per share would have been $0.02 more and
$0.02 more for the third quarter 2000 and third quarter 1999, respectively. In
addition, diluted earnings per share would have been $0.02 and $0.02 more for
the third quarter 2000 and third quarter 1999, respectively.

REVENUES
GLOBAL SECURITY SERVICES
Year-to-date 2000 Global Security Services revenues increased $98.7 million, or
12.8%, to $867.3 million from $768.6 million in the same period in 1999.
Revenues from North American Operations increased $85.3 million, or 13.0%, to
$743.7 million through the third quarter 2000 from $658.4 million through the
third quarter 1999. There was continued expansion of revenues from national
accounts due to new contracts and increases in existing contracts. Revenues were
boosted by the start-up in the fourth quarter of 1999 from security operations
at six nuclear power plants in Illinois with annualized revenues of $19.0
million, the start of an annual $7.0 million contract at the TMI nuclear unit in
Pennsylvania in the first quarter 2000, and operations initiated in January 2000
at the U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge facility with annualized contract
revenues of $75.0 million. International Operations revenues increased $13.4
million, or 12.2%, to $123.6 million through the third quarter 2000 compared to
$110.2 million through the third quarter 1999. Increases in international
security revenues are primarily attributable to growth in the United Kingdom and
in Latin America.
Page 23 of 28
<PAGE> 24
CORRECTIONAL SERVICES
Year-to-date 2000 Correctional Services revenues increased $84.8 million, or
26.9%, to $400.3 million from $315.5 million in the comparable period last year.
Approximately $59.6 million of the increase in revenues through the third
quarter 2000 compared to the same period in 1999 is attributable to an increase
in compensated resident days resulting from the opening of seven facilities in
1999 and two facilities in 2000. The number of compensated resident days in
domestic facilities increased to 6.5 million through the third quarter 2000 from
6.4 million through the third quarter 1999. Compensated resident days in
Australian facilities increased to 1.4 million from 0.7 million for the
comparable periods primarily due to higher compensated resident days at the
immigration detention facilities and the opening of two such facilities in the
fourth quarter 1999. Approximately $28.3 million of the increase in revenues is
attributable to the construction of new facilities. These increases were
partially offset by a $10.2 million revenue decrease due to the loss of two
contracts. The balance of the increase is attributable to facilities open during
all of both periods and an increase in development activities. The average
facility occupancy in domestic facilities slightly decreased to 97.3% of
capacity through the third quarter 2000 compared to 97.7% through the third
quarter 1999 due primarily to the loss of the two contracts.
FLEXIBLE STAFFING SERVICES
Flexible Staffing Services year-to-date 2000 revenues of $583.9 million were
$90.1 million above revenues of $493.8 in the same period last year due to
growth. Leased employees grew to approximately 34,600 at the end of the third
quarter 2000 from approximately 29,600 at the end of the third quarter 1999.
Temporary placement hours grew 7.4% to approximately 2,673,000 through the third
quarter 2000 from approximately 2,488,000 during the same period in 1999.
OPERATING INCOME
Year-to-date 2000 consolidated operating income decreased $3.6 million, or
12.9%, to $24.2 million from $27.8 million for the same period in 1999. The
operating margin through the third quarter 2000 decreased to 1.3% from 1.8% for
the same period in the prior year. The operating margin decrease for
Correctional Services more than offset the operating margin increase for Global
Security Services while the margin for Flexible Staffing Services and
unallocated corporate expenses as a percentage of consolidated revenues remained
constant. During a period of low unemployment, some business units may
experience difficulty in finding qualified personnel. This could have an adverse
impact on the Company's results of operations to the extent wages and salaries
increase at a faster rate than the per diem or fixed rate received by the
Company for its services. Management continually monitors the operations of its
subsidiaries and affiliates. If conditions were to arise that indicate an
impairment of one of these investments, this could have an adverse impact on the
Company's results of operations.
GLOBAL SECURITY SERVICES
The operating income of the Global Security Services business increased $5.8
million, or 30.2%, to $25.0 million through the third quarter 2000 from $19.2
million for the comparable period last year. North American Operations'
operating income increased $4.8 million, or 27.7%, to $22.1 million through the
third quarter 2000 from $17.3 million for the same period in 1999. The increase
in operating income of North American Operations can be attributed mainly to
increased revenue growth. The operating income of North American Operations
through the third quarter 2000, as a percentage of revenues, increased to 3.0%
from 2.6% for the comparable period in 1999. This increase is principally
attributable to the expensing of start-up costs in the first half of 1999,
relating to the opening of five offices on the West Coast, a reduction in IT
project costs, improved operations at Wackenhut Services, Inc. and reduced
overhead costs. International Operations' operating income increased $1.0
million to
Page 24 of 28
<PAGE> 25
$2.9 million through the third quarter 2000 from $1.9 million for the same
period in 1999, due principally to revenue growth in the United Kingdom and
improved operations in Africa partially offset by increased losses in Mexico.
CORRECTIONAL SERVICES
Year-to-date 2000 operating income decreased $7.8 million, or 38.4%, to $12.5
million from $20.3 million in the comparable period in 1999. As a percentage of
revenue, operating income decreased to 3.1% through the third quarter 2000 from
6.4% in the same period in 1999. This decrease is primarily due to WHC
reporting a third quarter operating charge of $3.8 million ($2.3 million after
tax, or $0.11 (eleven cents) per share), related to the de-activation of the
Jena, Louisiana facility. After taking into consideration the minority
shareholders' interest, this charge, effected the Company's earnings per share
by $0.08 (eight cents). WHC estimates this facility will remain inactive through
the end of 2001. There were also additional expenses related to the operations
at eight facilities in the United States. WHC has developed strategies to
improve the operational performance of these facilities; however, there can be
no assurances that these strategies will be successful. In addition, there has
been an adverse trend in the development of general liability claims experience,
and although WHC is developing a strategy to improve the management of loss
claims incurred, there can be no assurances that this strategy will be
successful. As a result, WHC has incurred additional operating expenses related
to general comprehensive liability insurance. WHC continues to incur this
additional insurance expense which could have an adverse impact on WHC's and the
Company's future financial results of operations.
FLEXIBLE STAFFING SERVICES
The year-to-date 2000 operating income of Flexible Staffing Services was $2.8
million, as compared to $2.5 million in the same period in 1999. The improvement
is attributable to revenue growth.
UNALLOCATED CORPORATE EXPENSES
Unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses increased 13.4% to
$16.1 million through the third quarter 2000 from $14.2 million in the same
period in 1999. This increase over the prior year primarily reflects a
non-recurring increase in consulting fees, increases in corporate staff payroll
and payroll related expenses and increases in senior executive retirement plan
costs. However, as a percentage of consolidated revenues, unallocated corporate
general and administrative expenses remained constant at 0.9% of revenues
through the third quarters of both 2000 and 1999.
OTHER INCOME/EXPENSE
The Company incurred other expense, net, of $1.3 million through the third
quarter 2000 compared to $0.2 for the same period in 1999. Investment income
increased $0.3 million through the third quarter 2000 to $3.8 million from $3.5
million in the same period in 1999. Interest expense increased $1.4 million to
$5.1 million through the third quarter 2000 from $3.7 million in the same period
in 1999. This increase is primarily attributable to increased interest expense
related to the increase in securitized accounts receivables and the revolver
loan along with higher interest rates.
INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES
Year-to-date 2000 income before taxes decreased $4.7 million, or 17.0%, to $22.9
million from $27.6 million for the same period in 1999.
EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation
and amortization, was $43.4 million, or 2.3% of revenues through the third
quarter 2000, which was $1.1 million, or
Page 25 of 28
<PAGE> 26
2.5%, lower than the same period in 1999. EBITDA does not necessarily indicate
that cash flow is sufficient to fund all the Company's cash needs or represent
cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting
principles.
INCOME TAXES
The combined federal and state effective income tax rate was 40.0% through the
third quarter 2000 and 39.8% for the same period in 1999.
MINORITY INTEREST EXPENSE
Minority interest expense (net of income taxes) decreased $1.9 million to $5.8
million through the third quarter 2000 from $7.7 million for the same period
1999, reflecting principally the decrease in earnings of WHC.
EQUITY INCOME OF AFFILIATES
Equity income of affiliates (net of income taxes) increased $0.3 million to $5.5
million through the third quarter 2000 from $5.2 million for the same period in
1999.
NET INCOME
Net income was $13.5 million through the third quarter 2000, or $0.90 basic
earnings per share, as compared to $14.1 million, or $0.94 basic earnings per
share for the same period in 1999. Earnings per share on a diluted basis was
$0.88 through the third quarter 2000 compared to $0.92 per share for the same
period in 1999. Goodwill amortization, after tax, amounted to $1.1 million and
$0.9 million through the third quarter 2000 and the same period 1999,
respectively. Excluding goodwill amortization, after tax, basic earnings per
share would have been $0.07 and $0.06 more through the third quarter 2000 and
the same period 1999, respectively. Likewise, diluted earnings per share would
have been $0.07 and $0.05 more through the third quarter 2000 and the same
period 1999, respectively.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is presently, and is from time to time, subject to claims arising in
the ordinary course of its business. In certain of such actions, plaintiffs
request punitive or other damages that may not be covered by insurance. In the
opinion of management, there are no other pending legal proceedings except those
disclosures below, for which the potential impact if decided unfavorably to the
Company could have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial
statements of the Company.
In Travis County, Texas, a grand jury indicted twelve of WHC's former facility
employees for various types of sexual misconduct at the Travis County Community
Justice Center. Eleven of the twelve indicted former employees already resigned
from or had been terminated by WHC as a result of WHC initiated investigations
over the course of the prior three years. WHC is not providing counsel to assist
in the defense of these twelve individuals. Management believes these
indictments are not expected to have any material financial impact on the
Company. The District Attorney in Travis County continues to review WHC
documents for alleged document tampering at the Travis County Facility. At this
time, WHC cannot predict the outcome of this investigation or the potential
impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.
