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.

The accompanying financial statements for prior periods have been reclassified
as to certain amounts to conform with the 1997 presentation.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

In the first quarter of 1997, Ogden elected to change the reporting of its
Business Segments as of January 1 and restated its 1996 presentation to conform
to this revised Segment reporting. Two of Ogden's core businesses formerly
reported as part of the Services segment - Entertainment and Aviation - have
been designated as separate business segments. All other operations formerly in
the Services segment, mainly the Facility Management and Technology groups were
transferred to the Other segment except the Facility Management operations at
Ogden's Waste-to-Energy plants and its Environmental business which have been
transferred to the Energy Segment. Non-core businesses scheduled for disposition
are included in an Other group.

The Entertainment segment consists principally of interests in themed
attractions; live theater; concerts; gaming; large format theaters and films;
performing artist management; recorded music and video development; food,
beverage and novelty concession operations; and facility management at arenas,
stadiums, amphitheaters civic/convention centers and other recreational
facilities. These services are provided to a wide variety of public and private
facilities including stadiums, convention and exposition centers, arenas, parks,
amphitheaters, and fairgrounds located in the United States, Mexico, Canada,
Argentina, Germany, Australia, Spain and the United Kingdom. Entertainment also
operates a racetrack and five off-track betting parlors in Illinois.

The Aviation segment provides specialized support services to airlines at
locations throughout the United States, Canada, 
<PAGE>

Europe, Latin America and the Pacific Rim. The specialized support services
provided by this group include comprehensive ground handling, ramp, passenger,
cargo and warehouse, aviation fueling and in-flight catering services. These
services are performed through joint ventures, consortiums, contracts with
individual airlines, consolidated agreements with several airlines, and
contracts with various airport authorities.

The operations of Ogden's Energy segment are conducted by Ogden Energy Group,
Inc. through four principal business groups: independent power, waste-to-energy,
water and waste water and environmental consulting and engineering (collectively
"Energy"). On September 30, 1997, Ogden Energy completed the acquisition of
Pacific Energy at a cost of $70,000,000 in cash and notes.

Operations:

Revenues for the first nine months of 1997 were $225,900,000 lower than the
comparable period of 1996. The Entertainment segment revenues increased
$23,400,000 chiefly associated with the acquisition of Florida Leisure in 1996,
new accounts and the start-up of operations in Germany and Aruba. The Aviation
segment revenues were $37,000,000 lower reflecting reduced activity in inflight
catering and ground services operations resulting from the sale of the Miami and
Spanish inflight catering businesses and certain ground services operations,
partially offset by the gains on the sale of such operations in the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. The Energy segment revenues were $8,900,000 lower
primarily due to reduced activity in the consulting and engineering groups,
partially offset by increased customer activity at several Waste-to-Energy
facilities and in the Independent Power group primarily reflecting commencement
of operations at the Edison Bataan facility and increased activity at one other
facility. Other segment revenues declined $203,400,000 reflecting revenues of
businesses sold during 1996, namely; Facility operations outside of New York
City; and the sale of W. J. Schafer Associates and Ogden Professional Services,
formerly the Technology group, which were sold in June 1996, and the Facility
operations in New York City sold in July 1997, which reductions in revenues were
partially offset by the gain on such sales as well as the gain on the sale of
the Corporation's 50% equity investment in the Universal Ogden joint venture.

Consolidated operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was
$15,400,000 higher than the comparable period of 1996. The Entertainment segment
income from operations was $5,300,000 higher than the comparable period of 1996
primarily reflecting increased activity in European and South America
operations, and several sports and amphitheater venues partially 
<PAGE>

offset by development costs associated with the "American Wilderness
Experience"(TM) project. The Aviation segment income from operations increased
$13,400,000 chiefly associated with the sale of the Miami and Spanish inflight
catering operations and certain ground services operations in 1997 and a charge
in 1996 reflecting the decision to close a ground service location, which were
partially offset by reduced activity in European operations. The Energy segment
income from operations was $9,100,000 higher primarily reflecting increased
activities at several Waste-to-Energy facilities. This increase was partially
offset by lower income in the Independent Power group due to increased
development costs and lower activity in consulting and engineering in the
Environmental group. The Other segment income decreased $15,100,000 chiefly
associated with the businesses sold in 1996, the sale of Charlotte operations
and a provision for the disposition of certain remaining operations of Atlantic
Design, a contract manufacturing business, partially offset by the gain on sales
in 1997 of Facility operations in New York City and the Corporation's 50% equity
interest in the Universal Ogden joint venture.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September
30, 1997 were $8,700,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996 chiefly
associated with the sale of non-core businesses and Ogden's continuing
restructuring activities. Debt service charges for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 were $4,000,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996 due
primarily to lower debt outstanding on various facilities caused by maturities
and redemptions of bonds.

The Energy segment has three 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 costs of $328,000 and $572,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 was $1,300,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996
chiefly associated with the sale of the 50% equity interest in the Universal
Ogden joint venture in the first quarter of 1997 partially offset by increased
earnings of Aviation's Macau joint venture.

Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $6,100,000
higher than the comparable period of 1996 chiefly associated with interest
earned on increased loans to customers and joint ventures, on notes receivable
received in connection with the sales of various operations as well as higher
cash and cash equivalents.
<PAGE>

Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was $900,000
higher than the comparable period of 1996 primarily due to borrowings relating
to loans to customers partially offset by lower borrowings on revolving credit
lines. Ogden has two interest rate swap agreements covering notional amounts of
$100,000,000 and $5,100,000, 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 agreement
expires November 20, 2000, and was entered into in order to convert Ogden's
$5,100,000 variable rate debt to a fixed rate. During the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 and 1996, Ogden paid $133,000 and $110,000, respectively, on
these swap agreements.

The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 was 41.5%
compared with 42% for the comparable period of 1996.

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were $38,100,000 lower
than the comparable period of 1996. The Entertainment segment revenues increased
$13,400,000 chiefly associated with increased customer activity in sports and
amphitheater venues, overseas operations and new accounts. The Aviation segment
revenues were $20,900,000 lower primarily reflecting the sale of several
inflight catering kitchens and certain ground services operations. The Energy
segment revenues were $4,800,000 lower primarily due to reduced activity in the
consulting, engineering and remediation businesses of the Environmental group,
partially offset by increased Independent Power revenues primarily reflecting
the acquisition of the Edison Bataan facility in August 1996. The Other segment
revenues were $25,800,000 lower primarily reflecting the sale of Facility
operations in New York City, reduced activity at Atlantic Design, a contract
manufacturing business, partially offset by the net gain on the sale of the New
York facility operations and on the Charlotte operations of Atlantic Design.

Consolidated operating income for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were
$6,500,000 higher than the comparable period of 1996. The Entertainment segment
income from operations increased $4,000,000 chiefly associated with increased
activity at sports venues and overseas operations partially offset by
development costs on the "American Wilderness Experience"(TM) project. Aviation
segment income from operations was $3,100,000 lower primarily reflecting the
gain on the sale of JFK ground handling service operations in 1996, partially
offset by increased fueling and ground services operations in 1997. The Energy
segment income from operations was $4,400,000 higher primarily reflecting
increased activity in several waste-to-energy facilities and Independent Power
operations, partially 
<PAGE>

offset by lower income in the consulting, engineering and remediation groups.
The Other segment operating income was $400,000 higher chiefly associated with
the gain on the sale of New York Facility operations in July 1997, offset by a
loss on the sale of the Charlotte operations, and a provision for the
disposition of certain of the remaining operations of Atlantic Design, a
contract manufacturing business.

Selling, General and Administrative expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 were $1,100,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996
chiefly associated with the sale of New York Facility operations as well as
Ogden's continuing restructuring activities.

Debt service charges for the three months ended September 30, 1997 were
$1,300,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996 primarily due to lower debt
outstanding due to bond redemptions and maturities. The three interest rate swap
agreements entered into as hedges against interest rate exposure on a series of
adjustable rate project debt resulted in additional debt service of $98,000 and
$185,000 for the three months ended September 30, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Equity in net income of investees and joint ventures for the three months ended
September 30, 1997 was $1,100,000 lower than the comparable period of 1996
primarily due to the sale of Ogden's 50% interest in Universal Ogden joint
venture in the first quarter of 1997 and lower earnings in Independent Power and
Entertainment joint ventures, partially offset by increased earnings in
Aviation's Macau joint venture.

Interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $2,600,000 higher
than the comparable period of 1996 chiefly associated with interest earned on
increased loans to customers as well as higher cash and cash equivalents.

Interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 1997 was $800,000 higher
than the comparable period of 1996 primarily reflecting increased borrowings.
During the three months ending September 30, 1997 and 1996, Ogden paid $53,000
and $38,000 on two interest rate swap agreements.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 1997 was 39.5%
compared with 42% for the comparable period of 1996, primarily reflecting a
reduction in net permanent differences between book and taxable income.

Capital Investments and Commitments: During the first nine months of 1997,
capital investments amounted to $74,600,000, of which $21,600,000, inclusive of
restricted funds transferred from 
<PAGE>

funds held in trust, was for Energy facilities and $53,000,000 was for normal
replacement and growth in Entertainment, Aviation and Energy's operations.

At September 30, 1997, capital commitments amounted to $166,400,000, which
included $87,400,000 for normal replacement, modernization, and growth in
Entertainment ($62,500,000), Aviation ($7,100,000), Energy ($16,800,000),
corporate and other ($1,000,000) operations. Also included was $79,000,000 for
Energy's coal-fired power project in The Philippines reflecting $59,600,000 for
mandatory equity contributions, $5,700,000 for contingent equity contributions,
and $13,700,000 for a standby letter of credit in support of debt service
reserve requirements. Funding for the mandatory equity contribution is being
provided by a bank credit facility, which must be repaid in December 2001. Ogden
also has a contingent equity contribution amounting to approximately $5,000,000
in connection with an Entertainment joint venture. In addition, compliance with
standards and guidelines under the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 may require
further Energy capital expenditures of $40,000,000 through December 2000 subject
to the final time schedules determined by the individual states in which the
Company's waste-to-energy facilities are located.

During 1994, a subsidiary of Ogden entered into a 30-year facility management
contract, pursuant to which it agreed to advance funds to a customer including,
if necessary, to assist the customers' refinancing of senior secured debt it
incurred in connection with the construction of the facility. To facilitate
refinancing this senior secured debt, on April 1, 1997 Ogden purchased all such
senior secured debt amounting to approximately $95,000,000. This is included in
"long term notes receivables". Funds for this purchase were provided by a bank
credit facility due March 26, 2000. This is included in "long term notes
payable". Ogden expects that this note receivable will be sold to a third party
during 1997, thereby repaying funds it had borrowed. After such sale, Ogden is
expected to retain an obligation to purchase the customer's senior secured debt
if the debt is not refinanced prior to March 2000. This obligation is expected
to be collateralized by bank letters of credit. In addition, at September 30,
1997, the Corporation has guaranteed indebtedness of $16,100,000 of an affiliate
and principal tenant of this customer, which was due in September 1997. This
indebtedness is in process of restructuring and the maturity is expected to be
extended to September 30, 1998. Ogden has also guaranteed borrowings of a
customer amounting to approximately $14,400,000 as well as another $10,500,000
of borrowings of joint ventures in which Ogden has an equity interest.
Management does not expect that these arrangements will have a material adverse
effect on Ogden's Consolidated Financial Statements.
<PAGE>

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 also
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 obligations incurred in the normal course
of business will have a material adverse effect on Ogden's Consolidated
Financial Statements.

Liquidity/Cash Flow - Net cash provided from operating activities for the nine
months of 1997 was $25,700,000 higher than the comparable period of 1996
primarily reflecting a decrease of $41,600,000 in accounts receivable
principally relating to businesses disposed of and the collection of receivables
reflecting the settlement of certain matters in dispute, a decrease of
$40,200,000 in inventories reflecting the sale of the Charlotte operations of
Atlantic Design and the leveling off of other inventory requirements partially
offset by a net decrease of $55,100,000 in accounts payable and accrued
expenses. Net cash used in investing activities increased $179,000,000 primarily
reflecting an increase in loans to customers of $111,200,000, increased capital
expenditures of $32,300,000 primarily in the Energy and Entertainment segments
and a reduction in the proceeds from the sale of businesses of $33,300,000
partially offset by a net decrease of $15,600,000 in investment in investees and
joint ventures chiefly associated with the return of a portion of the investment
in the Quezon joint venture in excess of amounts contributed to this project in
1997 as well as lower investments in other ventures. Net cash used in financing
activities decreased $132,700,000 reflecting an increase in new debt of
$134,200,000 primarily reflecting bank financing to purchase senior secured debt
of a customer and mandatory equity contributions for Energy's Quezon joint
venture in the Philippines.

Exclusive of changes in 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.
<PAGE>

At September 30, 1997, the Corporation had $200,234,000 in cash and cash
equivalents and unused revolving credit lines of $214,000,000.

                           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.

(a) 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 hazardous waste disposal
sites subject to CERCLA. In certain instances the Company may be exposed to
joint and several 


                                     II - 1
<PAGE>

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.

Note:

      Earnings per common share was computed by dividing net income, increased
(decreased) for adjustments arising from minority interest in consolidated
subsidiaries, reduced by preferred stock dividend requirements, by the weighted
average of the number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents,
where dilutive, outstanding during each period.

      Earnings per common share, assuming full dilution, was computed on the
assumption that all convertible debentures, convertible preferred stock, and
stock options converted or exercised during each period, or outstanding at the
end of each period were converted at the beginning of each period or at the date
of issuance or grant, if dilutive. This computation provides for the elimination
of related convertible debenture interest and preferred dividends.
