       NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

Note 3--Post Retirement Benefit Obligation

  The Company has elected to provide certain postretirement benefits to
certain key employees. Accordingly, the Company has adopted SFAS No. 106
"Accounting For Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions". The adoption of
SFAS No. 106 did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated
financial position or results of operations.

Note 4--Governmental Regulation

  In its Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 31, 1999, the
Company reported that the Inspector General's Office (the "IG") of the U.S.
Department of Education (the "DOE") had visited the Company's headquarters to
examine the Company's compliance with the 85/15 Rule (now the 90/10 Rule) and
to review in general the Company's administration of Title IV funds. The IG
has now issued its final audit report to the DOE and has not recommended any
action be taken against the Company as a result of its examination.

Results of Operations

 Three Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Three Months Ended December
31, 1998

  Net revenues increased $9.2 million, or 27.9%, from $33.0 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999 to $42.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2000, due primarily to a 16.4% increase in the average student population
during the quarter and a 9.7% increase in the average tuition rate per
student. At December 31, 1999, the total student population was 17,537,
compared with 15,073 at December 31, 1998.

  Educational services expense increased $4.3 million, or 23.0%, from $18.7
million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 to $23.0 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2000, due primarily to the increase in student population,
wage increases for employees, higher bad debt expense resulting from higher
revenue, the cost of two new locations opened in the third quarter of fiscal
1999, and higher rent from certain school relocations to larger upgraded
facilities and annual lease escalations. As a percentage of net revenue,
educational services expense decreased from 56.7% to 54.6%.

<PAGE>

                  CORINTHIAN COLLEGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


  General and administrative expense increased $0.8 million, or 23.0%, from
$3.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 to $4.3 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of (i) additional
headquarters staff to support operations, (ii) wage increases for employees,
and (iii) increased performance bonus accrual. As a percentage of net revenue,
general and administrative expense decreased from 10.5% to 10.1%.

  Marketing and advertising expense increased $1.5 million, or 20.2%, from
$7.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 to $8.7 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of increased advertising
expenditures due both to an increase in the quantity of advertisements and
general cost inflation for advertising products and increased staff costs
resulting from wage increases and additional admissions representatives. As a
percentage of net revenue, marketing and advertising expense decreased from
21.9% to 20.6%.

  Net interest income was $0.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2000
versus net interest expense of $0.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal
1999, or an improvement of $1.2 million, due primarily to the repayment of
debt with a portion of the proceeds from the Company's initial public offering
in February 1999 and interest income from short-term investments.

  The Company's effective income tax rate decreased from 45.5% in the second
quarter of fiscal 1999 to 41.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 due to a
reduction in the effective rate for state income taxes.

  Net income increased $2.3 million, or 153.8%, from $1.5 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 1999 to $3.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2000, due primarily to the factors discussed above.

 Six Months Ended December 31, 1999 Compared to Six Months Ended December 31,
1998

  Net revenues increased $17.6 million, or 27.8%, from $63.3 million in the
first six months of fiscal 1999 to $80.8 million in the first six months of
fiscal 2000, due primarily to a 15.4% increase in the average student
population during the six month period and a 10.1% increase in the average
tuition rate per student.

  Educational services expense increased $7.9 million, or 21.5%, from $36.7
million in the first six months of fiscal 1999 to $44.6 million in the first
six months of fiscal 2000, due primarily to the increase in student
population, wage increases for employees, higher bad debt expense resulting
from higher revenue, cost of two new locations opened in the third quarter of
fiscal 1999, and higher rent from certain school relocations to larger
upgraded facilities and annual lease escalations. As a percentage of net
revenue, educational services expense decreased from 58.0% to 55.2%.

  General and administrative expense increased $1.4 million, or 20.5%, from
$6.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 1999 to $8.1 million in the
first six months of fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of (i) additional
headquarters staff to support operations, (ii) wage increases for employees,
and (iii) increased performance bonus accrual. As a percentage of net revenue,
general and administrative expense decreased from 10.7% to 10.1%.

  Marketing and advertising expense increased $3.3 million, or 22.2%, from
$14.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 1999 to $18.2 million in the
first six months of fiscal 2000, primarily as a result of increased
advertising expenditures due both to an increase in the quantity of
advertisements and general cost inflation for advertising products and
increased staff costs resulting from wage increases and additional admissions
representatives. As a percentage of net revenue, marketing and advertising
expense decreased from 23.5% to 22.5%.

  Net interest income was $0.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2000
versus net interest expense of $1.7 million in the first six months of fiscal
1999, or an improvement of $2.4 million, due primarily to the repayment of
debt with a portion of the proceeds from the Company's initial public offering
in February 1999 and interest income from short-term investments.

                  CORINTHIAN COLLEGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

  The Company's effective income tax rate decreased from 44.6% in the first
six months of fiscal 1999 to 41.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2000 due
to a reduction in the effective rate for state income taxes.

  Net income increased $4.4 million, or 243.7%, from $1.8 million in the first
six months of fiscal 1999 to $6.2 million in the first six months of fiscal
2000, due primarily to the factors discussed above.

Tuition Price Increases

  The 9.7% and 10.1% increases in the average tuition rate per student for the
quarter and six months ended December 31, 1999, respectively, resulted from a
combination of (i) tuition price increases averaging approximately 7.5%, (ii)
increase in the percentage of students in higher cost programs, and (iii) the
effect of graduation and attrition of students in certain degree-granting
colleges that had fixed tuition contracts significantly below the prevailing
rate being charged new students. Under prior ownership, students in these
colleges were guaranteed a fixed tuition price for the duration of their
programs. Thus, any subsequent tuition price increases applied only to new
students. Subsequent to the Company's acquisition of these colleges, the
pricing mechanism has been changed so that tuition increases now affect both
new students and continuing students. However, the Company honored the fixed
price commitment to those students already in school when the Company acquired
the colleges. The result is a greater increase in the average tuition rate per
student than the actual period to period tuition price increase because of the
period to period mix impact of new to "grandfathered" students. The Company
expects that the majority of the remaining "grandfathered" students will
graduate or discontinue by the end of fiscal 2000. After that time, the
Company expects period to period increases in the average tuition rate per
student to more closely track the actual tuition price increases implemented
period to period. Accordingly, the average tuition rate increases discussed
herein are not necessarily indicative of average rate increases that may occur
in the future.

Seasonality and Other Factors Affecting Quarterly Results

  The Company's revenues normally fluctuate as a result of seasonal variations
in its business, principally in its total student population. Student
population varies as a result of new student enrollments, graduates and
student attrition. The Company's expenses, however, do not vary as
significantly as student population and revenue. The Company expects quarterly
fluctuations in operating results to continue as a result of seasonal
enrollment patterns. Such patterns may change, however, as a result of
acquisitions, new school openings, new program introductions and increased
high school enrollments. The operating results for any quarter are not
necessarily indicative of the results that could be expected for the full
fiscal year or for any future period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

  Cash provided by operating activities totaled $8.9 million in the first six
months of fiscal 2000 compared to $1.7 million provided by operating
activities in the same period of fiscal 1999. The Company had $26.7 million of
working capital as of December 31, 1999 compared to $19.1 million of working
capital as of June 30, 1999. The increase in working capital was due primarily
to favorable operating results during the period.

  Capital expenditures increased from $1.2 million in the six months ended
December 31, 1998 to $1.9 million in the same period in 1999. The increase was
due to the upgrading of school equipment and facilities and purchases of
additional equipment to accommodate the increasing student population. Capital
expenditures for fiscal 2000 are expected to increase as the student
population increases and the Company continues to upgrade and expand current
facilities and equipment and add new campuses.

  The Company believes that it's current working capital and expected cash
flow from operations, supplemented from time to time by borrowings from the
revolving credit facility with Union Bank of California,

                                       9

                  CORINTHIAN COLLEGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

will provide adequate funds for ongoing operations, planned routine capital
expenditures, planned expansion to new locations and debt service during the
term of the revolving credit agreement.

  The Company leases all of its facilities except five. The Company expects
that future commitments on existing leases will be paid from cash flow from
operations.

Year 2000 Compliance

  The information provided below constitutes a "Year 2000 Readiness
Disclosure" for purposes of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure
Act.

  Introduction. Through the first month of the Year 2000, the Company's
computer systems appear to be functioning normally and have not experienced
any significant issues associated with the Year 2000 problem. In 1997, the
Company began the process of identifying necessary changes to its computer
programs and hardware and assessing the progress of its significant vendors in
their remediation efforts to address the Year 2000 computer problem. The
discussion below details the Company's efforts to ensure Year 2000 compliance.

  State of Readiness. The Company identified and evaluated the readiness of
its internal and third party information technology and non-information
technology systems which, if not Year 2000 compliant, could have a direct
major impact to the Company. This evaluation identified the following initial
areas of concern: (i) the Company's accounting and financial reporting system,
(ii) the Company's proprietary student database system (Schools Automation
System or "SAS"), (iii) the systems of third party vendors which process
student financial aid applications and loans for the Company, and (iv) the
DOE's systems for processing and disbursing student financial aid.

  The Company's accounting and financial reporting system was upgraded with
the provider's latest release which is certified to be Year 2000 compliant.
The Company's SAS system was not initially compliant and a project plan was
developed to bring this system into compliance. The remediation project is now
complete and fully tested. The Company also assessed the state of readiness of
its major servers and shared hardware devices, and those hardware systems
which were not already Year 2000 compliant have been made so through upgrades
of operating system software.

  Based on its assessment, its vendors' representations, and performance to
date, the Company believes that the systems of its significant third party
vendors which provide student financial aid and loan processing are Year 2000
compliant.

  The Company is highly dependent on student funding provided through Title IV
of the Higher Education Act and administered by the DOE. Processing of student
applications for this funding and actual disbursement of a significant portion
of these funds are accomplished through the DOE's computer systems. According
to the DOE, their systems have now been renovated, independently validated and
verified, and certified to be Year 2000 compliant. As of this date, the
Company has not experienced any Year 2000 related problems in processing its
applications for student funding. However, any significant problems in the
DOE's systems could result in interruption of funding for the Company's
students and have a material adverse impact on the Company, its business and
results of operations.

  Year 2000 Costs. The Company has completed all expected spending on its Year
2000 remediation projects.

  Risks from Year 2000 Issues. The Company believes the greatest Year 2000
compliance risk, in terms of magnitude of risk, is that the DOE's systems
experience a failure, despite our experience to date, and Title IV funding for
the Company's students could be interrupted for a period of time. Other than
public comments provided by the DOE, the Company is unable to predict the
likelihood of this risk occurring. Any significant interruption of this
funding could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of
operations, liquidity or financial condition.

                                      10
<PAGE>

                  CORINTHIAN COLLEGES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES


  Contingency Plans. At this time, the Company believes its systems are Year
2000 compliant and is satisfied that its significant vendors are also
compliant. As such, the Company has not developed any specific contingency
plans to address an unforeseen Year 2000 computer failure. Based on the DOE's
assertion that it is Year 2000 compliant, and our experience to date, the
Company also has not developed a contingency plan to deal with a failure of
the DOE's systems because of the Year 2000 problem.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

  The Company does not utilize interest rate swaps, forward or option
contracts on foreign currencies or commodities, or other types of derivative
financial instruments. The only assets or liabilities of the Company which are
subject to risks from interest rate changes are (i) the mortgage debt of the
Company in the aggregate amount of $3.5 million, (ii) notes receivable from
students for the aggregate amount of $4.7 million, and (iii) marketable
investments of $15.8 million, all at December 31, 1999. The mortgage debt of
the Company, the student notes receivable, and the marketable investments are
all at fixed interest rates. The Company does not believe it is subject to
material risks from reasonably possible near-term changes in market interest
rates.

                          PART II--OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

  The Company is subject to disputes, claims and litigation in the ordinary
course of its business. In its Report on Form 10-K filed for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1999, the Company reported that a group of students in its
Duff's Business Institute court reporting program had filed suit against the
Company and certain of its subsidiaries. At the time of the Report on Form 10-
K, all such students had voluntarily dismissed their suit and the Company had
agreed to engage in non-binding mediation in an attempt to resolve the
students' complaints.

  During the quarter ended December 31, 1999, the Company settled its disputes
with all but two of such students for an amount the Company does not believe
to be material. The cost of settling the disputes was expensed during the
quarter ended December 31, 1999. The Company does not believe that the
disputes with the remaining two students, or any other currently pending legal
proceeding against the Company, are likely to result in a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or
liquidity.
