ITEM 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not
include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. However, in the opinion of Management,
all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals necessary for a fair
presentation of the operating results have been included in the statements.
In connection with Ogden's restructuring plan, the environmental business of
Ogden Environmental and Energy Services (OEES) was transferred to Ogden
Projects, Inc. as of January 1, 1996. In the first quarter of 1996 the
laboratory businesses of OEES and W.J. Schafer, a unit of Ogden Technology
Services, were sold. The Ogden Professional Services group, another unit of
Ogden Technology Services, was sold in April 1996. The Facility Management
Services group operations, outside of New York, were sold in June 1996 and the
asbestos abatement operations were discontinued in June 1996.
The accompanying 1995 financial statements have been reclassified as to certain
amounts to conform with the 1996 presentation.
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS:
Operations:
Revenues for the first nine months of 1996 were $61,000,000 lower than the
comparable period of 1995 chiefly associated with the disposition of non-core
businesses; $46,600,000 resulting from the sale of Facility Management Services
operations outside of New York as of June 30, 1996; $38,500,000 in Technology
Services primarily due to the disposition of certain of these businesses sold in
late 1995 and in 1996, partially offset by increased revenues of Technology
Services' remaining business, Atlantic Design, a contract manufacturing
operation; $59,600,000 in reduced construction revenues primarily due to the
completion of the Montgomery County facility in August 1995 and reduced
construction at the Detroit facility; $20,500,000 in Aviation Services, chiefly
associated with reduced activity in the air range and pilot training systems
company and in a Brazilian aviation unit disposed of in 1996; $14,600,000 in
Environmental Services chiefly associated with the sale of the laboratory
business in January 1996. These revenue decreases were partially offset by
increased revenues of $86,400,000 in Entertainment Services, primarily
reflecting new contracts, increased customer activity primarily at sports
venues, the start-up of operations in Europe and Argentina, and the acquisition
of Florida Leisure in 1996; $13,300,000 in Waste-to-Energy service revenues
chiefly associated with the full commercial operations of the Montgomery County
facility which commenced operations in August 1995 and a net gain of $13,000,000
from the disposition of non-core businesses.
<PAGE>
Consolidated operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was
$1,300,000 higher than the comparable period of 1995. Entertainment Services
operating income increased $11,800,000 primarily due to new contracts, increased
customer activity principally in sports venues, the start-up of operations in
Argentina and the acquisition of Florida Leisure in 1996. Operating income also
increased $13,000,000 as a result of the net gain from the disposition of
certain non-core businesses, namely the sale of Facility Services operations
outside of New York, a unit of Technology Services Group, Ogden Professional
Services, and the discontinuance of Asbestos Abatement operations. Ogden Power
income increased $4,400,000 primarily due to increased activity. Waste-to-energy
income increased $2,200,000 primarily reflecting full commercial operations of
the Montgomery County facility. These increases were partially offset by reduced
construction income of $21,200,000 reflecting the completion of the Montgomery
County facility in August 1995 and reduced activity at the Detroit facility, the
operating income of Technology Services which businesses have largely been
disposed or are planned to be disposed, decreased $6,800,000, largely reflecting
a charge in 1995 of $17,100,000, which was more than offset by operating income
associated with businesses disposed of in 1995 and in 1996 and reduced margins
and increased costs with respect to the remaining Technology Services business,
Atlantic Design, a contract manufacturing company. Facility Services income was
$3,300,000 lower chiefly associated with the sale of its operations outside of
New York in June 1996.
Debt service charges for the nine months of 1996 were relatively flat. The
Corporation has three fixed interest rate swap agreements entered into as hedges
against interest rate exposure on three series of adjustable-rate project debt
that resulted in additional debt service of $572,000 in the nine months of 1996
and lower debt service of $198,000 in the comparable period of 1995.
Interest income and interest expense for the nine months of 1996 were relatively
flat. The Corporation has two interest rate swap agreements covering notional
amounts of $100,000,000 and $6,700,000, respectively. The first swap agreement
expires on December 16, 1998 and was entered into in order to convert Ogden's
fixed rate $100,000,000 9.25% debentures into variable rate debt. The second
swap expires November 20, 2000 and was entered into in December 1995 in order to
convert Ogden's $6,700,000 variable rate debt to a fixed rate. These agreements
resulted in additional interest expense of $110,000 in the nine months of 1996
and $470,000 in the comparable period of 1995.
Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 was $3,000,000 lower primarily reflecting reduced earnings in
Ogden Power Joint Venture operations due to reduced prices.
The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was
42% compared with 44% for the comparable period of 1995. This 2% decrease in the
tax rate is due primarily to the effect of a reduction of certain foreign losses
and the increased profitability of certain foreign operations combined with the
use
<PAGE>
of foreign tax loss carryforwards.
Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were $87,800,000 lower
than the comparable period of 1995 primarily associated with the disposition of
non-core businesses; $63,000,000 resulting from the sale of Facility Management
Services operations outside of New York at June 30, 1996; $32,900,000 in
Technology Services primarily due to the disposition of certain of these
businesses sold in late 1995 and 1996, partially offset by increased revenues of
Technology Services' remaining business, a contract manufacturing operation;
$20,200,000 in reduced construction revenues due primarily to the completion of
the Montgomery County facility in August 1995. Revenues from Projects' other
operations were relatively unchanged. These revenue decreases were partially
offset by increased revenues of $34,300,000 in Entertainment Services, chiefly
associated with new contracts, increased customer activity, principally at
sports venues, the acquisition of Florida Leisure in 1996, and the start-up of
operations in Argentina in 1996.
Consolidated operating income for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was
$7,500,000 lower than the comparable period of 1995 primarily reflecting lower
income of $11,400,000 in Technology Services primarily relating to operating
income associated with businesses disposed of and reduced margins and increased
costs with respect to the remaining Technology Services business; $11,400,000 in
construction income reflecting the completion of the Montgomery County facility
in August 1995; and $2,300,000 in Facility Services chiefly associated with the
sale of the operations outside of New York in June 1996. These decreases were
partially offset by Waste- to-Energy increased income of $6,700,000 primarily
reflecting full commercial operations of the Montgomery County facility and
increased activity and efficiency at other facilities; $6,200,000 in
Entertainment Services chiefly associated with new contracts, increased customer
activity, the acquisition of Florida Leisure in 1996 and in the start-up of
operations in Argentina; and $3,800,000 in Aviation Services primarily due to
the results of the unexpected sale of the JFK Ground Services operations which
was partially offset by reduced activity in the air range and pilot training
systems operations.
Debt service charges for the three months ended September 30, 1996 decreased
$700,000 from the comparable period of 1995 due primarily to lower debt
outstanding. Three interest rate swap agreements entered into as hedges against
interest rate exposure on three series of adjustable rate project debt resulted
in additional debt service costs of $185,000 in the third quarter of 1996 and
lower debt service cost of $34,000 in the comparable period of 1995.
Interest income and interest expense was relatively flat for the three months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. During the three months ended September 30,
1996 and 1995, Ogden paid $38,000 and $115,000 on the two interests rate swap
agreements, respectively.
Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures was $800,000 lower
primarily due to lower earnings in Ogden Power Joint Ventures operations due to
reduced prices.
<PAGE>
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 1996 was
42% compared with 44% for the comparable period of 1995. This 2% decrease in the
tax rate is due primarily to the effect of a reduction of certain foreign losses
and the increased profitability of certain foreign operations combined with the
use of foreign tax loss carryforwards.
Capital Investments and Commitments: During the nine months of 1996, capital
investments amounted to $42,300,000, of which $10,300,000 inclusive of
restricted funds transferred from funds held in trust, was for Projects'
waste-to-energy operations and $32,000,000 was for normal replacement and growth
in Services' and Projects' operations.
At September 30, 1996, capital commitments amounted to $53,600,000 for normal
replacement, modernization, and growth in Services' ($43,000,000) and Projects'
($10,600,000) operations. In addition, compliance with recently promulgated
standards and guidelines under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 may require
additional capital expenditures of $30,000,000 during the next four years.
Ogden and certain of its subsidiaries have issued or are party to performance
bonds and guarantees and related contractual obligations undertaken mainly
pursuant to agreements to construct and operate certain waste-to-energy,
entertainment, and other facilities. In the normal course of business, they are
involved in legal proceedings in which damages and other remedies are sought.
Management does not expect that these contractual obligations, legal
proceedings, or any other contingent obligation incurred in the normal course of
business will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's Consolidated Financial
Statements.
During 1994, a subsidiary of the Corporation entered into a 30-year facility
management contract pursuant to which it agreed to advance funds to a customer,
if necessary, to assist refinancing senior secured debt incurred in connection
with construction of the facility. Such refinancing requirements are not
expected to exceed $75,000,000 at maturity of the senior secured debt, which is
expected to be on or about March 1, 2001. In addition, at September 30, 1996,
the Corporation has guaranteed indebtedness of $13,800,000 of an affiliate and
principal tenant of this customer. Ogden continues as guarantor of surety bonds
and letters of credit totaling approximately $17,500,000 on behalf of
International Terminal Operating Co. Inc. and has guaranteed borrowings of
certain customers amounting to approximately $26,700,000, as well as $8,000,000
of borrowings of joint ventures in which Ogden has equity interests. Management
does not expect that these arrangements will have a material adverse effect on
Ogden's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Liquidity/Cash Flow: Net cash provided from operating activities was $90,000,000
higher than the comparable period of 1995 chiefly associated with the collection
of accounts receivables of non-core businesses sold during the period.
Net cash provided from investing activities was $73,000,000 higher than the
comparable period of 1995 chiefly associated with cash
<PAGE>
provided from the sale of non-core businesses of $91,000,000, lower capital
expenditures of $34,000,000, offset by a reduction in cash provided from the
sale of marketable securities of $58,000,000.
Net cash used in financing activities increased $77,000,000 over the comparable
period of 1995 primarily due to the refinancing of project debt and the net
repayments of other debt in 1996.
Exclusive of changes in waste-to-energy facility construction activities, the
Corporation's various types of contracts are not expected to have a material
effect on liquidity. Debt service associated with project debt, which is an
explicit component of a client community's obligation under its service
agreement, is paid as it is billed and collected. Cash required for investing
and financing activities is expected to be satisfied from operating activities,
available funds, including short-term investments, proceeds from the sale of
non-core businesses, and the Corporation's unused credit facilities to the
extent needed. At September 30, 1996, the Corporation had $176,700,000 in cash,
cash equivalents, and marketable securities and unused revolving credit lines of
$206,300,000.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Ogden Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") are parties to
various legal proceedings involving matters arising in the ordinary course of
business. The Company does not believe that there are any pending legal
proceedings for damages against the Company, the outcome of which would have a
material adverse effect on the Company on a consolidated basis.
(b) Environmental Matters
The Company conducts regular inquiries of its subsidiaries regarding
litigation and environmental violations which include determining the nature,
amount and likelihood of liability for any such claims, potential claims or
threatened litigation.
In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may become involved in
Federal, state, and local proceedings relating to the laws regulating the
discharge of materials into the environment and the protection of the
environment. These include proceedings for the issuance, amendment, or renewal
of the licenses and permits pursuant to which a Company subsidiary operates.
Such proceedings also include actions brought by individuals or local
governmental authorities seeking to overrule governmental decisions on matters
relating to the subsidiaries' operations in which the subsidiary may be, but is
not necessarily, a party. Most proceedings brought against the Company by
governmental authorities or private parties under these laws relate to alleged
technical violations of regulations, licenses, or permits pursuant to which a
subsidiary operates. The Company believes that such proceedings will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company on a consolidated basis.
The Company's operations are subject to various Federal, state and local
environmental laws and regulations, including the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water
Act, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act
(CERCLA) and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Although the Company
operations are occasionally subject to proceedings and orders pertaining to
emissions into the environment and other environmental violations, the Company
believes that it is in substantial compliance with existing environmental laws
and regulations.
In connection with certain previously divested operations, the Company may
be identified, along with other entities, as being among potentially responsible
parties responsible for contribution for costs associated with the correction
and remediation of environmental conditions at various
<PAGE>
hazardous waste disposal sites subject to CERCLA. In certain instances the
Company may be exposed to joint and several liability for remedial action or
damages. The Company's ultimate liability in connection with such environmental
claims will depend on many factors, including its volumetric share of waste, the
total cost of remediation, the financial viability of other companies that also
sent waste to a given site and its contractual arrangement with the purchaser of
such operations.
The potential costs related to such matters and the possible impact on
future operations are uncertain due in part to the complexity of government laws
and regulations and their interpretations, the varying costs and effectiveness
of cleanup technologies, the uncertain level of insurance or other types of
recovery, and the questionable level of the Company's responsibility. Although
the ultimate outcome and expense of environmental remediation is uncertain, the
Company believes that required remediation and continuing compliance with
environmental laws will not have a material adverse effect on the Company on a
consolidated basis.
