NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 1998 and December 31,
1997, the consolidated statements of operations for the quarters ended
June 30, 1998 and 1997, and the consolidated statements of operations
and cash flows for the six month periods ended June 30, 1998 and 1997,
have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the accounting
policies described in its 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K and should be
read in conjunction with the notes thereto.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial
position, results of operations and changes in cash flows at June 30,
1998 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. The results of
operations for the periods ended June 30, 1998, are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full year.
2. ACQUISITIONS
In April 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital
stock of eight subsidiaries of U.S. Corrections Corporation ("USCC")
(the "USCC Acquisition") for approximately $10,000,000, less cash
acquired. By virtue of the USCC Acquisition, the Company acquired
contracts to manage four currently operating facilities in Kentucky,
each of which is owned by CCA Prison Realty Trust ("Prison Realty"), as
well as one each in Florida and Texas, each of which is owned by
governmental entities of Florida and Texas, respectively. The Company,
or one of its affiliates, currently leases the four Kentucky facilities
from Prison Realty, or one of its affiliates, pursuant to the terms of
that certain Master Agreement to Lease dated July 1997, between the
Company and Prison Realty (the "Master Lease"). The Company also
acquired by virtue of the USCC Acquisition the right to enter into
contracts to manage two facilities currently under construction that
are located in North Carolina and owned by Prison Realty. The Company
expects to lease these two facilities from Prison Realty pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Master Lease. The total number of beds
currently operating or under construction under all of the
aforementioned management contracts equals 5,743.
In April 1998, the Company acquired a 376-bed correctional facility
from a governmental entity for $18,389,000 and assumed management of
the facility.
In May 1998, in consideration for relinquishing its right to purchase a
facility, the Company agreed to pay a governmental agency $3,500,000.
As a result, the Company converted the facility from a direct financing
lease to property and equipment. In lieu of a cash payment, the entity
agreed to utilize a credit for management revenue billings beginning in
July 1998 until the credit is exhausted.

<PAGE> 9
3. LONG-TERM DEBT
The Company increased its revolving credit facility to $350,000,000 in
June 1998. The facility matures in September 1999 and bears interest,
at the election of the Company, at either the bank's prime rate or a
rate which is 1.25% above the applicable 30, 60, or 90 day LIBOR rate.
As of June 30, 1998, there was $210,000,000 borrowed under this
facility. Letters of credit totaling $3,400,000 had been issued leaving
the total unused commitment at $136,600,000.
4. MERGER
In April 1998, the Company signed a definitive agreement to merge with
Prison Realty in a transaction that will give the shareholders of the
Company the right to receive 0.875 Prison Realty common shares for
every share of Company common stock. Prison Realty will operate as a
real estate investment trust and the merger is expected to be
consummated on or about January 1, 1999, subject to customary
conditions, including approvals by certain regulatory agencies and the
shareholders of both companies.
5. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 128, "Earnings Per Share"
effective December 31, 1997. Under the standards established by SFAS
128, earnings per share is measured at two levels: basic earnings per
share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share
is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares after considering the additional dilution related to
convertible preferred stock, convertible subordinated notes, options
and warrants. All earnings per share amounts presented herein have been
restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 128.
In computing diluted earnings per common share, the Company's stock
warrants and stock options are considered dilutive using the treasury
stock method, and the Series B convertible preferred stock and the 8.5%
convertible subordinated notes are considered dilutive using the
if-converted method. The following table presents information necessary
to calculate diluted earnings per share for the second quarter and six
months ended June 30:

6. NEW PRONOUNCEMENT
In April 1998, the AICPA issued Statement of Position ("SOP") 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-Up Activities", effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1998. SOP 98-5 requires the costs of
start-up activities to be expensed as incurred. In accordance with the
provisions of SOP 98-5, the Company will adopt the new accounting
method as of January 1, 1999 by recording a cumulative effect of a
change in accounting principle. As of June 30, 1998, the Company's
deferred start-up costs totaled $23,258,000.
7. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 1997. SFAS No.130 requires that changes in
the amounts of certain items, including gains and losses on certain
securities, be shown in the financial statements. The Company adopted
the provisions of SFAS No. 130 on January 1, 1998. The Company's
comprehensive income is substantially equivalent to net income for the
quarters ended and six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997.
Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
report.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations includes certain forward-looking statements about the
Company's business, revenues, prospects, expenditures and operating and
capital requirements. In addition, forward-looking statements may be
included in various other Company documents to be issued in the future
and in various oral statements by Company representatives to securities
analysts and potential investors from time to time. Any such statements
are subject to risks that could cause the actual results to vary
materially. The risks and uncertainties associated with the
forward-looking information include the strength of the markets in
which the Company operates, competitive market conditions, general
economic growth, interest rates and capital market conditions.
Reference is hereby made to the more detailed discussion of such risks
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

<PAGE> 11
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUES AND OPERATING EXPENSES
Revenues for the second quarter and first half of 1998 increased 53%
and 54%, respectively, over the comparable periods of 1997. Management
revenues increased $56,447,000 and $105,368,000 for the second quarter
and first half of 1998, respectively, as compared to the same periods
of 1997. The increase in management revenues was due to compensated
mandays increasing by 56% and 54%, respectively, over the comparable
periods of 1997. In April 1998, the Company acquired all of the issued
and outstanding capital stock of eight corporate subsidiaries of USCC.
By virtue of the USCC Acquisition, the Company acquired contracts to
manage four currently operating facilities in Kentucky, each of which
is owned by Prison Realty, as well as one facility in Florida and one
in Texas, each of which is owned by governmental entities of Florida
and Texas respectively. The USCC Acquisition resulted in a total of
3,181 beds brought on line in the second quarter of 1998. The Company
also acquired a 376-bed facility from a governmental entity, expanded
three existing facilities totaling 635 beds and opened a 1,440-bed
facility for a cumulative total of 5,632 new beds added during the
second quarter of 1998. These beds were in addition to the 2,381 beds
brought on line in the first quarter of 1998 and resulted in the
Company cumulatively adding 8,013 beds during the first half of 1998.
Transportation revenues increased $600,000 and $1,140,000,
respectively, for the second quarter and first quarter of 1998 over the
same relative time periods of 1997. These increases were a result of
continued expansion of the customer base and increased utilization of
three hubs opened in 1997.
Operating expenses for the second quarter and first half of 1998
increased 47% and 52%, respectively, over the comparable periods of
1997. This increase was due to the increased compensated mandays and
compensated mileage that the Company realized in the second quarter and
first half of 1998 as previously mentioned. While operating costs
increased in volume, management operating costs per compensated manday
decreased to $29.46 for the second quarter of 1998 as compared to
$30.51 for the second quarter of 1997. The cost per compensated mandays
has decreased due to the continued focus on cost containment and
economies of scale realized with the opening of larger facilities and
expansions of existing facilities.
General and administrative expenses for the second quarter and first
half of 1998 increased 42% and 44%, respectively, over the comparable
periods of 1997. However, as a percentage of revenues, general and
administrative expenses declined to 3.4% for the second quarter and
first half of 1998 as compared to 3.6% and 3.7% for the comparable
periods of 1997. As the Company continues to grow, general and
administrative expenses should increase in volume but continue to
decrease as a percentage of revenues.
Depreciation and amortization for the second quarter and first half of
1998 declined 3% and 8%, respectively, over the comparable periods of
1997. The decrease is primarily due to the sale of 13 facilities to
Prison Realty in 1997 and 1998.
Lease expense increased significantly in the second quarter and first
half of 1998 as a result of the lease agreements that the Company
entered into with Prison Realty in 1997 and 1998. As of June 30, 1998,
the Company had entered into lease agreements with Prison Realty on 17
facilities, including the four USCC facilities.
OTHER EXPENSES
Interest expense, net, for the second quarter and first six months of
1998 was actually interest income of $2,420,000 and $5,211,000,
respectively, as compared to interest expense of $854,000 and
$1,352,000 in the comparable periods of 1997. This change to interest
income was primarily the result of the sale of facilities to Prison
Realty which allowed the Company to benefit from interest earnings on
its increased cash balances.
11
<PAGE> 12
INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to approximately 26% in the
second quarter and first half of 1998. The decrease is due to the
recognition of certain tax benefits realized in 1997 and 1998. The
Company is recognizing these benefits over the next four years which
should result in maintaining a consistent effective tax rate.
FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's business is capital intensive in relation to the
development of a correctional facility. The Company's efforts to obtain
contracts, construct additional facilities and maintain its day-to-day
operations have required the continued acquisition of funds through
borrowings and equity offerings. The Company has financed these
activities through the sale of capital stock, subordinated convertible
notes and senior secured debt, through the issuance of taxable and
tax-exempt bonds, by bank borrowings, by assisting governmental
agencies in the issuance of municipal bonds and most recently through
the sale and leaseback of certain correctional facilities to Prison
Realty.
Cash flow from operations, calculated on an EBITDA basis, for the first
six months of 1998 was $55,628,000 as compared to $48,302,000 in the
comparable period of 1997. The Company has strengthened its cash flow
through its expanded business, additional focus on larger, more
profitable facilities, the expansion of existing facilities where
economies of scale can be realized, and the continuing effort of cost
containment.
In June 1998, the Company increased its revolving credit facility with
a group of banks to $350,000,000. This facility matures in September
1999 and is used for general corporate purposes and the issuance of
letters of credit. The credit facility bears interest, at the election
of the Company, at either the bank's prime rate or a rate which is
1.25% above the applicable 30, 60, or 90 day LIBOR rate. Interest is
payable quarterly with respect to prime rate loans and at the
expiration of the applicable LIBOR period with respect to LIBOR based
loans. There are no prepayment penalties associated with the credit
facility. The credit facility requires the Company, among other things,
to maintain certain net worth, leverage and debt service coverage
ratios. The facility also limits certain payments and distributions. As
of June 30, 1998, there was $210,000,000 borrowed under this facility.
Letters of credit totaling $3,400,000 had been issued leaving the total
unused commitment at $136,600,000.
The Company also has a $2,500,000 credit facility with a bank that
provides for the issuance of letters of credit and matures in September
1999. As of June 30, 1998 there were $1,595,000 in letters of credit
issued, leaving the unused commitment at $905,000.
The Company anticipates making cash investments in connection with
future acquisitions and expansions. In addition, in accordance with the
developing trend of private prison managers making strategic financial
investments in facilities, the Company plans to use a portion of its
cash to finance start-up costs, leasehold improvements and equity
investments in facilities, if appropriate in connection with
undertaking new contracts. The Company believes that the cash flow from
operations, the availability of future capital from Prison Realty and
amounts available under its credit facility will be sufficient to meet
its capital requirements for the foreseeable future. Furthermore,
management believes that additional resources may be available to the
Company through a variety of other financing methods.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
In 1997, the Company made significant improvements to its computer
systems, software and applications. Although the company believes that
its software applications and programs are "year 2000 compliant", there
can be no assurance that coding errors or other defects will not be
discovered in the future. Also, the company has not initiated formal
communications with
12
<PAGE> 13
any of the entities that contract with it to determine the extent to
which the Company is vulnerable to those third parties failure to
remediate their own year 2000 issues. Any year 2000 compliance problem
of the Company or other third parties could result in a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, prospects, results of
operations and financial condition.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In April, 1998, the Company became subject to seven
lawsuits brought by various shareholders of the Company and
relating to the proposed merger of the Company with and
into Prison Realty. All of the lawsuits were filed in
Chancery Court for Davidson County in Nashville, Tennessee.
The lawsuits have since been consolidated into a single
lawsuit in Chancery Court for Davidson County in Nashville,
Tennessee. The lawsuit names the Company and its directors
as defendants. The plaintiff in the action represents a
putative class of all public holders of the Company's
common stock.
The consolidated complaint alleges, among other things,
that the directors of the Company breached their fiduciary
duties to the Company and/or the Company's public
shareholders by approving the merger. The complaint seeks,
among other things, preliminary and permanent injunctive
relief prohibiting consummation of the merger as presently
proposed and directing the Company or the individual
defendants to adopt a procedure or process, such as an
auction, to obtain the highest possible price for the
Company. The complaints also seek unspecified damages,
attorney's fees and other relief. The Company is contesting
this action vigorously.

requested by a party in a Dispute."
