ALARMGUARD HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Alarmguard Holdings, Inc. ("Alarmguard" or the "Company") is the
successor-in-interest to Security Systems Holdings, Inc. ("SSH") and Triton
Group Ltd. ("Triton"), following the merger ("Merger") of SSH and Triton on
April 15, 1997. Alarmguard, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, sells and
installs burglar and fire alarm systems and provides monitoring and security
system repair and maintenance services to homeowners and businesses, principally
in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 1998 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 1998. The condensed
consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1997 has been derived from the
audited consolidated balance sheet as of that date. The unaudited interim
financial information of Alarmguard should be read in conjunction with the
audited consolidated financial statements of Alarmguard as of and for the year
ended December 31, 1997 included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year then
ended.
2. Acquisitions
On February 2, 1998, Alarmguard purchased all of the issued and
outstanding shares of capital stock of Detect, Inc. ("Pelletier"), a company
located in Danbury, Connecticut, with approximately 7,200 subscribers and
Monthly Recurring Revenue ("MRR") of approximately $0.2 million, for a total
purchase price of approximately $10.4 million. The total purchase price
consisted of $9.5 million paid at closing, the assumption of $0.5 million of
notes payable and $0.4 million representing an amount due to the sellers of
Pelletier based on certain post closing adjustments. The acquisition was
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and, accordingly, the
purchase price was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of
acquisition. In connection with this acquisition, the Company received current
assets of $0.6 million, property and equipment of $0.2 million, customer
contracts of $10.8 million and other intangibles of $0.4 million and assumed
current liabilities of $1.6 million.
During the first six months of 1998, Alarmguard also acquired certain
operating assets of Security Systems, Inc. ("Sentry"), of Malden, Massachusetts
and four additional companies in the security alarm installation and monitoring
business for an aggregate of $25.8 million in cash and $3.3 million representing
an amount due to the sellers based on certain post closing adjustments. The
acquisitions added approximately $0.6 million of MRR and approximately 22,000
6
<PAGE>
customers. The acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting and, accordingly, the purchase price has been preliminarily allocated
to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair
values at the respective dates of acquisition. In connection with the
acquisitions, Alarmguard received current assets of $1.3 million, customer
contracts of $28.8 million, other intangibles of $0.5 million, and property and
equipment of $0.6 million and assumed current liabilities of $2.1 million.
The following unaudited pro forma information shows the results of the
Company's operations as though the acquisitions consummated during the first six
months of 1998 had been made as of January 1, l998 and January 1, 1997, and the
acquisitions consummated during the fiscal year of 1997 had been made as of
January 1, 1997 (in thousands, except per share data):

place at the beginning of the respective periods or the results that may occur
in the future and do not give effect to cost savings which are expected to occur
as a result of the consolidation of the acquired companies.
3. Inventories
Inventories consist principally of alarm components and supplies which
are carried at the lower of cost or market value.
4. Customer Installation Costs
During the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997, Alarmguard incurred
approximately $3.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively, of customer
installation costs primarily attributable to the operations of its dealer and
direct marketing programs. Alarmguard added approximately 5,500 and 3,200
customers, respectively, through its dealer and direct marketing programs during
these periods.

Preferred Stock $2,009 $2,009

$2,097 $2,245
=================== =====================
Alarmguard owns 450,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Ridgewood
Hotels, Inc. ("Ridgewood") with a face value of $3.6 million. Alarmguard
currently receives a 10% quarterly dividend of $90,000 on this investment and
the preferred stock is redeemable at any time by Ridgewood at its face value
plus accrued dividends. The preferred stock is convertible by Alarmguard at any
time into 1,350,000 Ridgewood common shares, which would represent approximately
47% of the Ridgewood common shares then outstanding, or 40% fully diluted.
Alarmguard accounts for the Ridgewood investment using the cost method of
accounting.
7. Long Term Debt
On February 3, 1998, in connection with the offering of Convertible
Preferred Stock (see Note 10), Alarmguard, Inc. (the "Borrower"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company, increased the availability under the Third Amended
and Restated Term Loan and Acquisition Credit Agreement (the "Credit Facility")
from $60 million to $90 million. The Credit Facility provides for interest only
advances until January 31, 2000 and amortization thereafter. Borrowings under
the Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the properties and
assets of the Borrower including accounts receivable, inventory, leasehold
interests, customer contracts and the capital stock of all of the subsidiaries
of the Company. Interest on the Credit Facility accrues and is payable at the
option of the Borrower at either prime plus 1-1/2% or LIBOR plus 2.75%
(approximately 8.66% at June 30, 1998). The Company has fixed the interest rate
on $40.0 million of its outstanding borrowings at 8.84% for three years through
8
<PAGE>
an interest rate swap agreement. At June 30, 1998, outstanding borrowings under
the Credit Facility were $64.7 million.
On July 31, 1998, the Company repaid $3.9 million of subordinated debt
through a new $3.9 million term loan which was provided by certain banks under
the Credit Facility. The new term loan has no impact on availability under the
Credit Facility. The term loan accrues interest at 30 day LIBOR plus 4.10%
(which represented approximately 9.75% on July 31, 1998) and is due and payable
on January 31, 2005. The subordinated debt was issued in April 1997, bore
interest at 15% and was due in April 1999.
8. Stock Options
On March 10, 1998, the Board of Directors issued 365,000 additional
stock options to the senior management of Alarmguard which vest over a four-year
period from the date of grant. The exercise price for all options granted was
$10.00 per share, the quoted market value of the common stock on the date of
grant. On July 1, 1998, the Company issued 70,000 stock options to the Directors
of the Company pursuant to the Directors Stock Option Plan. These options vest
over a three-year period and have an exercise price of $9.625 per share, the
quoted market value of the common stock on the date of grant.
9. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company experiences routine litigation in the normal course of its
business. Management does not believe that any pending or threatened litigation
will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of
operations of the Company.
10. Sale of Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock
On February 3, 1998, the Company completed an offering of 40,000 shares
of Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (35,000 shares of Series A Preferred
and 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred) which are redeemable at $1,000 per share
five years from the date of issuance yielding gross proceeds totaling $40
million. The Company issued 700 additional shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock in exchange for $0.7 million of the Company's subordinated debt. Net
proceeds of the offering, after the payment of investment banking fees and legal
expenses, amounted to approximately $37.8 million. The costs incurred for
completing the February 1998 offering are being amortized to the dividend
requirement on Preferred Stock over the five-year life of the security with the
unamortized balance reflected as a reduction of the Preferred Stock's carrying
value.
The Series A Preferred Stock pays quarterly cash dividends at 5% per
annum. Under the terms of the securities, holders of the Series A and Series B
Preferred Stock have the right to convert their shares at any time, into
4,972,434 shares of the Company's common stock at the conversion price of $8.25
per share and $7.75 per share, respectively, subject to certain anti-dilution
provisions. The holders of the newly issued preferred stock have elected two
9
<PAGE>
additional members to the Company's Board of Directors. The net proceeds from
the offering and the increased credit facility discussed in Note 7 are intended
to finance acquisitions and expand the Company's Dealer and Direct Marketing
Programs. In connection with the sale of the Preferred Stock, the Company
imputed a one-time non-cash dividend of approximately $9.0 million ($1.61 per
common share) as a result of the conversion prices of the two series of
Preferred Stock being less than the quoted market price of the Company's Common
Stock at the date of issuance, as required by EITF D-60: Accounting for the
Issuance of Convertible Preferred Stock and Debt Securities with a
Non-detachable Conversion Feature. Such amount was recognized upon issuance of
the Preferred Stock as a charge against accumulated deficit, with a
corresponding offsetting increase in additional paid in capital. The imputed
non-cash dividend is also included in the dividend requirement on Preferred
Stock in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1998.
11. Earnings per Share
The 1997 calculation of basic and diluted loss per common share
excludes the dividend requirement on preferred stock as a result of the
conversion of the Preferred Stock and related accrued dividends into Alarmguard
Common Stock at the time of the Merger.
All dilutive securities (stock options, warrants and convertible
preferred stock) have been excluded from the diluted loss per common share
calculation as such instruments are antidilutive.
12. Recent FASB Pronouncements
In 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information." The Company will adopt SFAS No. 131
effective for year-end financial reporting in 1998 and expects no material
impact upon adoption.
In 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which is required to be adopted in years
beginning after June 15, 1999. Because of the Company's minimal use of
derivatives, management does not anticipate that the adoption of the new
Statement will have a significant effect on earnings or the financial position
of the Company.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Certain matters in this section constitute "forward-looking statements
"within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties
and other factors which may cause the actual results of Alarmguard Holdings,
Inc. (the "Company" or "Alarmguard") to be materially different from historical
results or from any results expressed or implied by such forward looking
statements. These factors are discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in a
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-23307) filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on March 14, 1997.

General Overview
Alarmguard sells and installs burglar and fire alarm systems and
provides security monitoring services and security system repair and maintenance
services to homeowners and businesses, principally in the Northeast and
Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States. Alarmguard provides its security
alarm systems and services primarily under its trademark "Alarmguard". As of
June 30, 1998, Alarmguard had approximately $3.0 million of Monthly Recurring
Revenue ("MRR") and approximately 95,000 subscribers.
Alarmguard's objective is to provide residential and commercial
security services to an increasing number of subscribers. Alarmguard's growth
strategy is to enhance its position in the security alarm monitoring industry in
the Northeastern and Mid-Atlantic United States by increasing the number and
density of subscribers for whom it provides services. Alarmguard is pursuing
this strategy through a balanced growth plan involving: (1) incorporating
acquisitions of portfolios of subscriber accounts in existing and contiguous
markets; (2) internal growth through direct marketing to obtain new subscribers
(the "Direct Marketing Program"); (3) acquiring credit-approved monitoring
contracts from Alarmguard authorized dealers (the "Dealer Program"); (4) growth
of Alarmguard's core business through referrals and traditional local marketing;
and (5) addition of new commercial subscribers through its National Accounts
Program. Alarmguard believes that increasing the number and density of its
subscribers will help it to achieve economies of scale and enhance results of
operations.
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, Alarmguard acquired six
companies in the security alarm installation and monitoring business for an
aggregate of $39.0 million in cash, notes payable and amounts due to sellers
based on certain post closing adjustments. The acquisitions added approximately
$0.8 million of MRR and approximately 29,000 subscribers.
Key Operating Measures
The Company employs three internal measurements to assess the
performance of its operations: Adjusted EBITDA, MRR and Gross MRR Attrition.
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is derived by adding Dealer and Direct
Marketing Program costs and acquisition integration expenses incurred, net of
Dealer and Direct Marketing Program revenues earned, to EBITDA (Earnings Before
Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization). This calculation provides a
basis for comparison of Alarmguard's results to those of other security alarm
companies that grow only through the acquisition of subscriber accounts. An
amount similar to Adjusted EBITDA is used by lenders in extending credit to
Alarmguard. Adjusted EBITDA does not represent cash flows from operations as
defined by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be construed
as an alternative to net income. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June
11
<PAGE>
30, 1998 increased to $2.5 million from $1.4 million for the comparable 1997
period, a 74.8% increase. For the six months ended June 30, 1998, Adjusted
EBITDA was $4.4 million compared to $2.7 million in the prior year.

Monthly Recurring Revenue. MRR represents revenue that a company in the
security alarm industry is entitled to receive under contracts (monitoring,
leasing, and maintenance) in effect at the end of such period. MRR is a term
commonly used in the security alarm industry as a measure of the size of a
company. It does not measure profitability or performance, and does not include
any allowance for future subscriber attrition or uncollectible accounts
receivable.
Gross MRR Attrition. Gross MRR attrition has an adverse effect on the
Company's financial position and results of operations, since it affects the
Company's recurring revenues. Gross MRR attrition, generally expressed on an
annualized basis, can be measured in terms of decreased MRR resulting from
canceled subscriber accounts. Gross MRR attrition is defined by the Company for
a particular period as a quotient, the numerator of which is equal to gross MRR
lost as the result of canceled subscriber accounts during such period and the
denominator of which is the average month end MRR during such 12 month period.
The following table sets forth the Company's MRR additions, cancellations, and
gross MRR attrition for the periods indicated (in thousands):

million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 56.5%, over the comparable period in
1997. This increase was primarily the result of a 66.1% increase of recurring
revenue to $8.6 million from $5.2 million and a 39.8% increase in installation
revenue to $3.7 million from $2.6 million. A significant portion of the revenue
growth was related to acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased to $7.4 million, or 56.1% of total
revenue, for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 compared to $4.8 million, or 57.5%
of total revenue, in the comparable 1997 period. The decrease in gross profit as
a percentage of total revenue was primarily the result of lower margin
installations in the current quarter.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense for the three months
ended June 30, 1998 increased approximately $0.3 million or 28.2% over the
comparable period in 1997. As a percent of total revenue, sales and marketing
expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998 decreased to 11.5% from 14.1%
in the comparable 1997 period, reflecting economies of scale resulting from
incremental revenue growth.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expense for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998 increased approximately $1.0 million, or 35.7%, over
the comparable period in 1997. The increase was primarily the result of the
acquisitions as well as increased staffing requirements at the corporate level
required to facilitate the Company's growth plan. As a percent of total revenue,
general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 1998
decreased to 29.1% from 33.6% in the comparable 1997 period, again reflecting
economies of scale resulting from incremental revenue growth.
Acquisition Integration Expenses. During the three months ended June
30, 1998, the Company incurred $0.4 million of costs associated with the
integration of acquired subscriber accounts into the Company's system. These
costs were not material in the comparable period of 1997. Management expects to
continue to incur such costs in the future, principally relating to the
acquisition and integration of subscriber account portfolios acquired in the
first six months of 1998 and future acquisitions.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998 increased by approximately $1.4 million, or 46.6%,
compared to the same period in 1997. This increase was primarily the result of
the acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998.
Operating Loss. The operating loss for the three months ended June 30,
1998 increased to $2.9 million from $2.3 million in the comparable 1997 period.
As a percent of total revenue, the operating loss for the quarter decreased to
22.0% in 1998 compared to 27.1% for the same period in 1997, reflecting
economies of scale as discussed above.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, for the
quarter ended June 30, 1998 was $1.7 million, compared to $1.2 million in the
comparable period in 1997. This increase is primarily the result of an increased
outstanding balance under the Company's credit facility in 1998 compared to the
comparable period of 1997, reflecting the Company's growth through acquisitions
combined with subscriber additions through the Dealer and Direct Marketing
Programs.
Dividend Requirement on Preferred Stock. The dividend requirement on
preferred stock during the quarter ended June 30, 1998 reflects the 5% per annum
cash dividend on the Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock issued in February
1998, and amortization of the costs incurred for completing the offering of
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock issued in February 1998. The costs
incurred for completing the February 1998 offering, approximately $2.2 million,
are being amortized to the dividend requirement on Preferred Stock over the
five-year life of the security with the unamortized balance reflected as a
reduction of the Preferred Stock's carrying value. In the comparable period in
the prior year, this amount reflects the dividends accrued on the Redeemable
Preferred Stock of the predecessor company that were converted to Common Stock
of the Company in connection with the Triton Merger in April 1997.
Six Months Ended June 30, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 1997
Revenue. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1998 were $24.0
million, an increase of $9.1 million, or 60.4%, over the comparable period in
1997. This increase was primarily the result of a 64.9% increase of recurring
revenue to $15.4 million from $9.4 million and a 52.5% increase in installation
revenue to $7.1 million from $4.7 million. A significant portion of the revenue
growth was related to acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998.
Gross Profit. Gross profit increased to $13.3 million, or 55.2% of
total revenue, for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared to $8.7 million,
or 58.3% of total revenue, in the comparable 1997 period. The decrease in gross
profit as a percentage of total revenue was primarily the result of lower margin
installations in the current period.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense for the six months
ended June 30, 1998 was $2.8 million compared to $2.2 million for the comparable
1997 period. As a percent of total revenue, sales and marketing expense for the
six-month period decreased to 11.6% from 14.6% in the prior year, reflecting
economies of scale from increased revenues.

<PAGE>
General and Administrative. General and administrative expense for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 increased approximately $2.0 million, or 39.8%,
over the comparable period in 1997. As a percent of total revenue, general and
administrative expense for the six-month period decreased to 29.1% from 33.4% in
the comparable 1997 period, reflecting economies of scale resulting from
incremental revenue growth.
Acquisition Integration Expenses. During the six months ended June 30,
1998, the Company incurred $0.7 million of costs associated with the integration
of acquired subscriber accounts into the Company's system. These costs were not
material in 1997.
Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation for the
six months ended June 30, 1998 increased by approximately $2.6 million, or
47.5%, compared to the same period in 1997. The increase was primarily the
result of the acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998.
Operating Loss. The operating loss for the six months ended June 30,
1998 increased to $5.3 million from $3.9 million in the comparable 1997 period.
As a percent of total revenue, the operating loss for the quarter decreased to
21.9% in the current year compared to 26.2% for the same period in 1997. This
improvement again reflects the increased profitability derived from incremental
revenues.
Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 was $3.1 million, compared to $2.0 million in the
comparable period in 1997. This increase is primarily the result of an increased
outstanding balance under the Company's credit facility in 1998 compared to
1997, reflecting the Company's growth through acquisitions combined with
subscriber additions through the Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs.
Dividend Requirement on Preferred Stock. The dividend requirement on
preferred stock during the six months ended June 30, 1998 reflects the 5% per
annum cash dividend on the Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock issued in
February 1998, amortization of the costs incurred for completing the offering of
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock issued in February 1998, and an imputed
one-time non-cash dividend of approximately $9.0 million as a result of the
conversion prices of the two series of Preferred Stock being less than the
quoted market price of the Company's Common Stock at the date of issuance. The
costs incurred for completing the February 1998 offering are being amortized to
the dividend requirement on Preferred Stock over the five-year life of the
security with the unamortized balance reflected as a reduction of the Preferred
Stock's carrying value. In the comparable period in the prior year, this amount
reflects the dividends accrued on the Redeemable Preferred Stock of the
predecessor company that were converted to Common Stock of the Company in
connection with the Triton Merger in April 1997.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources. The Company has financed its operations and growth
since May 1992 with a combination of borrowings under credit facilities,
issuance of subordinated debentures, sale of common and preferred stock, the
15
<PAGE>
1997 Merger with Triton, and internally generated cash flows. The Company's
principal uses of cash have been the acquisition of subscriber accounts, costs
associated with the Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs and interest payments
on borrowings under the Credit Facility. A substantial portion of the Company's
future operating cash flow will be used to fund the acquisition of subscriber
accounts, the Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs and to service borrowings
under the Credit Facility and other Company debt. There can be no assurance that
the Company will continue to have the ability to meet its borrowing requirements
and to fund its acquisition strategies and Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs.
In February 1998, the Company completed an offering of 40,000 shares of
Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (35,000 shares of Series A and 5,000
shares of Series B) at $1,000 per share yielding gross proceeds totaling $40
million. Concurrently, the Company issued 700 additional shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock in exchange for $0.7 million of the company's subordinated debt.
The Series A Preferred Stock pays quarterly dividends at 5% per annum. Under the
terms of the securities, holders of the Series A and Series B Preferred Stock
have the right to convert their shares, at any time, into shares of the
Company's Common Stock at the conversion price of $8.25 per share and $7.75 per
share, respectively, subject to certain anti-dilution provisions. Concurrent
with the offering, the Company increased its credit facility from $60 million to
$90 million. The proceeds from the offering and borrowings from the expanded
Credit Facility are being used to finance acquisitions and expand the company's
Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs.
As of June 30, 1998, the Company had $8.8 million in unrestricted cash.
Additionally, the Company had $64.7 million outstanding under its Credit
Facility with approximately $2.5 million of availability at the end of the
quarter. The Company's ability to borrow under the Credit Facility is limited by
certain representations and financial covenants.
The Credit Facility is a non-amortizing loan which converts to a 5
five-year amortizing term loan on April 30, 2000. Borrowings under the Credit
Facility are secured by substantially all of the properties and assets of the
Borrower including accounts receivable, inventory, leasehold interests, customer
contracts and the capital stock of all of the subsidiaries of the Company.
At June 30, 1998, Alarmguard had subordinated debentures of $3.9
million bearing interest at 15%, which were to be due in April 1999. On July 31,
1998, the Company repaid this amount through a new $3.9 million term loan which
was provided by certain banks under the Credit Facility. In connection with the
issuance of the subordinated debt in 1997, Alarmguard issued warrants to
purchase 215,939 shares of Alarmguard Common Stock at an exercise price of
$11.11 per share, the value of which was accounted for as a discount to the
subordinated debt and was being amortized over the two year life of the
underlying debt instrument prior to the repayment of the subordinated debt on
July 31, 1998. The Company also has a total of $3.8 million due to sellers of
previous acquisitions, a portion of which is secured by various notes. A portion
of the amounts due to sellers requires the Company to make periodic principal
and interest payments.
The Company intends to continue to use its cash balances, the
liquidation of its other investments and borrowings under the credit facility to
finance the addition of subscriber accounts, primarily through acquisitions and
the Dealer and Direct Marketing Programs. Additionally, the Company, depending
16
<PAGE>
on future needs and the cost and availability of various financing alternatives,
may from time to time seek additional debt or equity financing in the public or
private markets in order to continue to support the growth of subscriber
accounts. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such
capital on acceptable terms or at all. If cash flows from operations, combined
with borrowings under the credit facility and other borrowings are insufficient
to fund the Company's growth strategies, management would curtail the Dealer and
Direct Marketing Programs and implement a cost reduction strategy to the extent
necessary to satisfy its obligations.
Liquidity. During the first six months of 1998 and 1997, the Company's
net cash used in operating activities was approximately $2.2 million and $2.6
million, respectively. Improved operating margins due to incremental revenue
growth and resulting economies of scale more than offset increased interest
costs and acquisition integration expenses.
For the first six months of 1998 and 1997, the Company's net cash used
in investing activities was approximately $41.4 million and $6.7 million,
respectively. This significant increase reflects the acquisitions completed
primarily in the first quarter of 1998.
Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $51.8
million in the six months ended June 30, 1998 as compared to $9.5 million in the
comparable year ago period. The increase reflects the cash generated from the
Preferred Stock offering and increased borrowings under the credit facility
discussed above.
The Company incurred losses applicable to common shares of
approximately $9.1 million and $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company expects to incur losses for the
foreseeable future, the result of its continuing growth strategy.
Recent FASB Pronouncements. In 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131,
"Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." The
Company will adopt SFAS No. 131 effective for year-end financial reporting in
1998 and expects no material impact upon adoption.
In 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," which is required to be adopted in years
beginning after June 15, 1999. Because of the Company's minimal use of
derivatives, management does not anticipate that the adoption of the new
Statement will have a significant effect on earnings or the financial position
of the Company.
The Company continues to review "Year 2000" issues. Based on its review
to date, it does not anticipate incurring any significant costs associated with
this issue.
