INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


Ogden Profit Sharing Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for 
benefits of the Ogden Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") as of December 31, 
1993 and 1992 and the related statements of changes in net assets available 
for benefits for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Plan's management.  Our responsibility is to express 
an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing 
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 
are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management,as well as evaluating the 
overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material 
respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31,
1993 and 1992 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the 
years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

OGDEN PROFIT SHARING PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1993 AND 1992


1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    The more significant accounting and reporting policies followed in the 
    preparation of the financial statements of the Ogden Profit Sharing Plan
    (the "Plan") are:

    a.  Investments Funds - During 1993, the Plan included the following funds 
        in which participants could elect to invest their Plan assets:
    
        - Equity Fund - Investments in a diversified portfolio of equity
          securities.
        
        - Stock Fund - Investments in common stock of Ogden Corporation.
        
        - Fixed Income Fund - Investment contracts with insurance companies 
          and banks which provide for a guaranteed return on principal 
          invested over a specified time period.
        
        - Merrill Lynch Treasury Fund ("Treasury Fund") - Investments in 
          U.S. Treasury bills and notes generally with maturities of one year 
          or less.

        The Plan's beneficial interest in the Ogden Corporation Profit 
        Sharing Group Trust ("Trust") represents its share of the
        master trust assets held by The Bank of New York Trust Company as 
        trustee for the benefit of various Ogden Corporation subsidiary 
        plans.  The common stock of Ogden Corporation held as a result of
        investments in the Stock Fund is held in safekeeping at The Bank of 
        New York Trust Company.
    
        Shares in group trust funds are determined on the basis of the 
        initial asset contribution to the Trust by each participating plan, 
        adjusted for subsequent contributions, distributions and allocated
        income and realized and unrealized gains and losses.  Allocations of 
        income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are determined 
        on the basis of each plan's proportionate share in the Trust assets
        stated at fair value.
    
    b.  Investment Valuation - Investments in securities listed on national 
        securities exchanges are valued at the closing composite price
        published for the last business day of the year.  Other investments 
        in securities are stated at fair value as determined by the trustee.
        Investments in guaranteed interest contracts are stated at cost plus
        accrued income.
    
    c.  Investment Transactions and Investment Income - Investment 
        transactions are accounted for on the date purchases or sales are 
        executed.  Realized and unrealized gains and losses are determined
        based on the fair market value of assets at the beginning of the Plan 
        year.  Dividend income is accounted for on the ex-dividend date.  
        Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis as earned.  Total 
        income of each fund is allocated monthly to participants' accounts 
        within the fund based on the participants' relative beginning balances.
    
    d.  United States Federal Income Taxes - The Plan is intended to be 
        qualified under section 401(a) and tax exempt under section 501(a) of 
        the Internal Revenue Code.  The Plan has received a favorable 
        determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated 
        December 18, 1992.  Additionally, subsequent to year end, the
        Plan has received a favorable determination letter from the
        Internal Revenue Service dated February 22, 1994.

2.  DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN

    The following is a brief description of the Plan.  Participants should 
    refer to the Plan document for more complete information.

    a.  General Information - The Plan is an employee savings plan providing 
        for both employer and employee contributions.  The Plan was 
        established as the Ogden Food  Service Corporation Saving and Security
        Plan by Ogden Food Service Corporation on January 1, 1982.  The Plan 
        was amended and restated effective January 1, 1987 to conform with the 
        Tax Reform Act of 1986.  Other amendments have been made since the
        Plan's inception to reflect changes in the Plan name and participating
        Ogden subsidiaries and affiliates adopting the Plan.
    
        Participating companies in the Plan include:
    
        -   Ogden Services Corporation (the Sponsor of the Plan);
        
        -   Ogden Management Services, Inc.;
        
        -   All subsidiaries and affiliates of the participating 
            companies which adopt the Plan.
    
        Ogden Services Corporation (the "Company") has amended and restated 
        the Plan, effective as of January 1, 1991, to reflect the following:
    
        (i)   The name of the profit sharing plan was changed from the 
              Ogden Allied Services Profit Sharing Plan to the Ogden Profit
              Sharing Plan.
        
        (ii)  The length of service requirement to be eligible for Company
              contributions was reduced from two years to one year.  The 
              plan provisions requiring the employees to have reached
              age 21 and have completed 1,000 hours of service are still 
              applicable.
        
        (iii) The profit sharing contribution changed from a discretionary
              percentage of pay to a discretionary percentage allocated using 
              Social Security integration.
        
        (iv)  The Company now matches 100 percent of the first 3 percent of 
              an employee's contribution.
        
        (v)   Vesting in Company contributions changed from 100 percent 
              immediate vesting to five-year cliff vesting.  Participants 
              remain 100 percent vested in Company contributions made through
              December 31, 1990.
        
        (vi)  Any forfeitures will be used to decrease future Company 
              contributions.
    
    b.  Administration of the Plan - Administrative and Investment Committees 
        are appointed by the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Ogden 
        Services Corporation (the "Company") and serve as fiduciaries of the
        Plan.  The Administrative Committee has responsibility for 
        administering the Plan and the Investment Committee has responsibility 
        for reviewing the performance of the Plan's investments.  Costs 
        related to the administration of the Plan may be paid out of Plan 
        assets if the Company does not pay such expenses directly.
    
    c.  Participation - Full-time employees of participating companies who 
        are not covered under a collective bargaining agreement with a 
        recognized union are eligible to participate in the Plan on the first 
        day of the calendar month following the date he or she has completed
        twelve months of employment and 1,000 hours of service.
    
    d.  Contributions - Participants may elect to contribute to the Plan from 
        one to fifteen percent of their annual compensation on a pre-tax 
        basis.  For 1993 and 1992, participant pre-tax contributions could not
        exceed $8,994 and $8,728, respectively.  The Company matches 100 
        percent of the first 3 percent of a participant's annual compensation 
        that participants with one year of service elect to contribute.
    
        A participant's elective contributions and Company contributions are 
        invested, at the written election of the participant, in accordance 
        with one of the following options:
    
        -   100 percent in one of the Investment Funds; or
        
        -   in more than one Investment Fund allocated in multiples of 
            five percent.
    
        If a participant does not make such a written election, he or she is 
        deemed to have elected investment in the Treasury Fund.
    
    e.  Loans to Participants - Loans are made to  participants at a minimum 
        of $500 and up to the lesser of fifty percent of the vested balance 
        or $50,000 not to exceed the imitations of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.
        The terms of the loans are a minimum of 6 months and a maximum of 5 
        years or 60 months (10 year maximum on loans for a primary residence), 
        in increments of 6 months.  Participants are prohibited from borrowing
        funds accumulated in the Stock Fund.  The interest rate charged is 
        the Bank of New York prime rate plus 1 percent as of the fifteenth 
        of the month.
    
    f.  Vesting - Employees eligible to participate in the Plan on 
        December 31, 1990 remain 100 percent vested in all past and future
        company contributions.  Employees eligible to participate in the Plan 
        after December 31, 1990 become 100 percent vested in company 
        contributions after 5 years of service.
    
        Participant contributions are immediately 100% vested.
    
    g.  Retirement Dates - A participant's normal retirement date is the 
        participant's sixty-fifth birthday.  A participant may elect early 
        retirement at age 55 with 10 years of credited service.
    
    h.  Amendment or Discontinuance of the Plan - The Company expects to 
        continue the Plan indefinitely, but reserves the right to modify, 
        suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, which includes the right 
        to vary the amount of, or to terminate, the Company's contributions 
        to the Plan.  In no event shall assets of the Plan be used for any 
        purpose other than to benefit participants or beneficiaries.  In the
        event of the Plan's termination or discontinuance of contributions 
        thereunder, the interest of each participant to benefits accrued to 
        such date, to the extent then funded, is fully vested and 
        nonforfeitable.
    
    i.  Form of Benefits - Benefits are paid in one lump sum.
