NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1996
(UNAUDITED)
1. INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In the opinion of management, the unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial
Statements of Greyhound Lines, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") include
all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to
present fairly the Company's financial position as of June 30, 1996, and the
results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 and
1995 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995. Due to
the seasonality of the Company's operations, the results of its operations for
the interim period ended June 30, 1996 may not be indicative of total results
for the full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and
regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The
unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements of Greyhound
Lines, Inc. and Subsidiaries and accompanying notes for the year ended December
31, 1995.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
LOSS PER SHARE
Primary loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted
average shares of common stock of the Company ("Common Stock") and Common Stock
equivalents outstanding during the period. Common Stock equivalents represent
the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of certain outstanding stock
options. The calculation of fully diluted loss per share of Common Stock
considers the effect of conversion of the Company's 8.5% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2007 (the "Convertible Debentures"). For the three
and six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, however, the assumed exercise of
outstanding in-the-money stock options and conversion of Convertible Debentures
have an antidilutive effect. As a result, these shares are excluded from the
final determination of weighted average shares outstanding at June 30, 1996 and
1995. The weighted average shares outstanding used in the calculation of
primary and fully diluted loss per share of Common Stock for the three and six
months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

CERTAIN RECLASSIFICATIONS

conform them to the June 1996 classifications.
3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
SECURITIES AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION; SEC INVESTIGATION
Between August and December 1994, seven purported class action lawsuits were
filed by purported owners of the Company's Common Stock, Convertible Debentures
and Senior Notes (defined herein) against the Company and certain of its former
officers and directors. The suits seek unspecified damages for securities law
violations as a
7
<PAGE> 8
result of statements made in public reports and press releases and to
securities analysts during 1993 and 1994 that are alleged to have been false
and misleading.
All the purported class action cases referred to above (with the exception of
one suit that was dismissed before being served on any defendants) have been
transferred to the United States District Court for the Northern District of
Texas, the Court in which the first purported class action suit was filed, and
are pending under a case styled In re Greyhound Securities Litigation, Civil
Action 3-94-CV-1793-G. A joint pretrial order has been entered in the class
action litigation which consolidates for pretrial and discovery purposes all of
the stockholder actions and, separately, all of the debtholder actions. The
joint pretrial order required plaintiffs to file consolidated amended
complaints and excused answers to the original complaints. In July 1995, the
plaintiffs filed their consolidated amended complaints, naming Greyhound Lines,
Inc., Frank J. Schmieder, J. Michael Doyle, Phillip W. Taff, Robert R. Duty,
Don T. Seaquist, Charles J. Lee, Charles A. Lynch and Smith Barney Incorporated
as defendants. Messrs. Lee, Lynch and Taff were subsequently dismissed from
the case by the plaintiffs. In September 1995, the various defendants filed
motions to dismiss plaintiffs' complaints. In October 1995, plaintiffs filed a
motion seeking to certify the class of plaintiffs. Both motions have been
fully briefed and are pending for decision before the Court.
In November 1994, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed by Harvey R. Rice,
a purported owner of the Company's Common Stock, against present directors and
former officers and directors of the Company and the Company as a nominal
defendant. The suit seeks to recover monies obtained by certain defendants by
allegedly trading in the Company's securities on the basis of nonpublic
information and to recover monies for certain defendants' alleged fraudulent
dissemination of false and misleading information concerning the Company's
financial condition and future business prospects. The suit, filed in the
Delaware Court of Chancery, New Castle County, is styled Harvey R. Rice v.
Frank J. Schmieder, J. Michael Doyle, Charles A. Lynch, Richard J. Caley,
Thomas F. Meagher, Thomas G. Plaskett, Kenneth R. Norton, Robert B. Gill,
Alfred E. Osborne, Jr., J. Patrick Foley, Charles J. Lee and Greyhound Lines,
Inc., Civil Action No. 13854. Pursuant to a stipulation, the time for all
defendants to answer, move or otherwise plead with respect to the derivative
complaint is not yet due.
In May 1995, a lawsuit was filed on behalf of two individuals, purported owners
of the Company's Common Stock, against the Company and certain of its former
officers and directors. The suit seeks unspecified damages for securities law
violations as a result of statements made in public reports and press releases
and to securities analysts during 1993 and 1994 that are alleged to have been
misleading. The suit, filed in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of Ohio, is styled James Illius and Teodore J. Krawec v.
Greyhound Bus Lines, Inc., Frank J. Schmieder and J. Michael Doyle, Civil
Action No. 1-95-CV-1140. The defendants filed a motion to transfer venue
seeking to have the case transferred to the Northern District of Texas where
the class action litigation is pending. In September 1995, the defendants'
motion was granted, and the matter has been transferred for consolidation into
the litigation pending before the Court in Dallas.
Based on a review of the litigation, a limited investigation of the underlying
facts and discussions with legal and outside counsel, the Company does not
believe that the outcome of this litigation would have a material adverse
effect on its business and financial condition. The Company intends to defend
against the actions vigorously. To the extent permitted by Delaware law, the
Company is obligated to indemnify and bear the cost of defense with respect to
lawsuits brought against its officers and directors. The Company maintains
directors' and officers' liability insurance that provides certain coverage for
itself and its officers and directors against claims of the type asserted in
the subject litigation. The Company has notified its insurance carriers of the
asserted claims.
In January 1995, the Company received notice that the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") is conducting a formal, non-public investigation into
possible securities laws violations allegedly involving the Company and certain
of its former officers, directors and employees and other persons. The SEC Order
of Investigation (the "Order of Investigation") states that the SEC is exploring
possible insider trading activities, as well as possible violations of the
federal securities laws relating to the adequacy of the Company's public
disclosures with respect to problems with its passenger reservation system
implemented in 1993 and lower-than-expected earnings for 1993. In addition, the
SEC has stated that it will investigate the adequacy of the Company's record
keeping with respect to the passenger reservation system and its internal
auditing controls. Although the SEC has not announced the targets of the
investigation, it does not appear from the Order of Investigation that the
Company is a target of the insider trading portion of the investigation. In
September 1995, the SEC served a document subpoena on the Company requiring the
production of documents, most of which the Company voluntarily produced to the
SEC in
8
<PAGE> 9
late 1994. The Company is fully cooperating with the SEC's investigation of
these matters. The probable outcome of this investigation cannot be predicted
at this stage in the proceeding.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company may be liable for certain environmental liabilities and clean-up
costs relating to underground fuel storage tanks and systems in the various
facilities presently or formerly owned or leased by the Company. Based upon
surveys conducted by Company personnel, 70 locations have been identified as
sites requiring potential clean-up and/or remediation as of June 30, 1996. The
Company has estimated the clean-up and/or remediation cost of these sites to be
$4.8 million of which approximately $1.0 million is indemnifiable by the
predecessor owner of the Greyhound domestic bus operations now known as The
Dial Corp ("Dial"). The Company has no reason to believe that Dial will not
fulfill its indemnification obligations to the Company. However, if Dial does
not fulfill such obligations, the Company could have liability with respect to
those matters. Additionally, the Company has been designated as a potentially
responsible party by the Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA") at three
Superfund sites where the Company and other parties face exposure for costs
related to the clean-up of those sites. Based on the EPA's enforcement
activities to date, the Company believes its liability at these sites will not
be material because its involvement was as a de minimis generator of wastes
disposed of at the sites. In light of the minimal involvement, the Company has
been negotiating to be released from liability in return for the payment of
immaterial settlement amounts. The Company has recorded a total environmental
reserve of $3.8 million, at June 30, 1996, a portion of which has also been
recorded as a receivable from Dial for indemnification. The environmental
reserve relates to sites identified for potential clean-up and/or remediation
and represents the present value of cash flows for noncapitalized expenses
discounted at 8%. Management believes that adequate accruals have been made
related to all known environmental matters.
OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In addition to the litigation discussed above, the Company is a defendant in
various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, primarily cases
involving personal injury and property damage claims. Although these lawsuits
involve a variety of different facts and theories of recovery, the majority
arise from traffic accidents involving buses operated by the Company. The vast
majority of these claims are covered by insurance for amounts in excess of the
self-retention or deductible portion of the policies. Therefore, based on the
Company's assessment of known claims and its historical claims payout pattern
and discussion with legal and outside counsel and risk management personnel,
management believes that there is no proceeding either threatened or pending
against the Company relating to such personal injury and/or property damage
claims arising out of the ordinary course of business that, if resolved against
the Company, would materially exceed the amounts recorded.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Public Offering and Senior Note Repurchase. Net proceeds to the Company from
the sale of four million shares of Common Stock in October of 1995 were $15.4
million. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds to repurchase (the
"Senior Note Repurchase") $10.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 10%
Senior Notes due 2001 (the "Senior Notes") and the remaining net proceeds
were used for general corporate purposes.
Capital Structure and Leverage. The Company had $192.0 million in long-term debt
outstanding (excluding $21.1 million of issued and undrawn standby letters of
credit) at June 30, 1996, which primarily consisted of the Company's Senior
Notes. Also included in long-term debt were outstanding borrowings of $21.3
million under the Credit Facility. Although the Company generally requires
significant cash flows to meet its debt and other continuing obligations, the
Senior Note Repurchase has reduced these requirements for the near term. After
giving effect to the Senior Note Repurchase, the Company's semi-annual interest
payments on the Senior Notes have been reduced from $8.2 million to $7.6 million
(each January 31 and July 31). Additionally, the Senior Notes sinking fund
requirements for 1996, in the amount of $8.0 million, have been met through the
Senior Notes repurchased in 1995 and the $1.7 million of Senior Notes which the
Company owned prior to the Senior Note Repurchase. The balance of the Senior
Note Repurchase will be applied to the July 1997 sinking fund payment and as a
result, the cash required for the July 1997 sinking fund payment has been
reduced from $10.0 million to approximately $5.7 million. The sinking fund
payment due July 1998 is $15.0 million and increases annually thereafter. The
Company will also require $12.9 million in the aggregate for other debt service,
$10.3 million of which is interest (including the remaining interest payment on
the Senior Notes due in July) and $19.5 million for bus, real estate and other
operating lease obligations during the remainder of 1996.
Cash Flows and Liquidity. Operating cash flows, together with cash from
financing activities, seasonal revolving credit borrowings and sales of assets,
historically have been sufficient to fund the Company's operations and investing
activities which consist primarily of capital expenditures for new bus
acquisitions, systems development costs and facility acquisitions, replacements
or upgrades. The seasonal fluctuations in the Company's cash flows can be
significant. Typically, cash flow for the first quarter of the year is negative,
and is not offset until the third and fourth quarters, which typically produce
substantial positive cash flows. For the first quarter of 1996, operating
activities used net cash of $28.3 million, while operating activities for the
second quarter provided positive cash flow of $6.9 million resulting in net cash
used for operating activities of $21.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1996. The cash used for the net changes in certain operating assets and
liabilities (a component of net cash used for operating activities) for the six
months ended June 30, 1996, reflects the expected level of activity in these
accounts during this period of the year. The cash provided by the net changes in
certain operating assets and liabilities for the comparable period in 1995, is
primarily the result of the Company's efforts to conserve cash during the early
period in its turnaround.
The net cash required for operating activities, as well as cash required for
investing activities, were primarily funded by cash provided by revolving
advances under the Company's Credit Facility and the sale-leaseback of 51 buses
which had been purchased in 1995. At June 30, 1996, the Company had cash and
cash equivalents of $0.9 million and available borrowing capacity of $18.6
million under the Credit Facility for general purposes. Additionally, the
Company had sufficient unpledged collateral which could have been pledged under
the terms of the Credit Facility to increase total available borrowing capacity
to $19.6 million at June 30, 1996.
The Company is party to a revolving credit facility which was amended in April
1996 (the "Credit Facility"). Availability under the Credit Facility is
limited to the aggregate of the following: (1) revolving advances of up to
$2.5 million based on a formula of certain eligible accounts receivable; (2)
revolving advances of up to $47.5 million (the "Fixed Asset Advances") based on
the value of certain fixed asset collateral pledged to Foothill; and (3) a bus
purchase facility of up to $30.0 million (the "Bus Purchase Facility"). The
Credit Facility limits letters of credit and letters of credit guarantees to
$35.0 million. Borrowings under the Credit Facility mature on January 15,
1999, although the availability under the Fixed Asset Advances will be subject
to quarterly reductions commencing October 1997, unless additional collateral
is pledged. The Credit Facility is secured by liens on substantially all the
assets of the Company, excluding real estate purchases and new bus purchases
that are specifically pledged to support borrowings under the Bus Purchase
Facility or other financing. The Credit Facility allows the Company to dispose
of certain non-core real estate properties. In addition, non-bus capital
expenditures are limited to $30.0 million
10
<PAGE> 11
annually with no spending limitations on bus purchases. At June 30, 1996, the
Credit Facility provided for revolving loans, letters of credit and letter of
credit guarantees up to a maximum commitment of $80.0 million. As of June 30,
1996, syndication commitments under the Credit Facility, including Foothill's
commitment as the lead agent, totalled $80.0 million and the Company had
pledged sufficient collateral to activate up to $61.0 million of total
availability. As of June 30, 1996, there were approximately $21.1 million in
issued and undrawn standby letters of credit outstanding and outstanding
borrowings of $21.3 million under the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility is subject to financial covenants, including maintenance of
a minimum net worth and an agreed ratio of cash flow to interest expense. At
June 30, 1996, the Company was in compliance with these covenants. In
addition, the Credit Facility provides for a reduction in interest rates if
certain ratio levels of cash flow to interest expense, in excess of a minimum,
are achieved. As of December 31, 1995, the Company had exceeded the first
threshold level and, as a result, the applicable interest rate on any
borrowings under the Credit Facility was reduced from 2.0% above the prime rate
to 1.75% above prime effective February 1, 1996.
The Company is party to two floating rate interest rate swap agreements entered
into in July 1993. In October 1994, the agreements were amended to lock in
future payments under the agreements until maturity in July 1998. The net
result of the amendments is that these swaps will not be subject to interest
rate risk. Under the amendments, the Company will be required to pay $5.0
million in total from June 30, 1996 through the remaining term of the five-year
agreements. Pursuant to an amendment finalized in April 1996, the Company has
collateralized its payment obligations under the amended agreements with a $1.1
million letter of credit and liens on six pieces of Company-owned real
property. In conjunction with the amendment, the counterparty has agreed to
reduce the real estate collateral requirements beginning in 1997.
The Company has embarked on an aggressive risk reduction and claims reduction
program. Due to a decrease in the pending inventory of claims, certain
insurance carriers have reduced their collateral and security requirements for
previous years' claims, which resulted in a return of collateral and security
to the Company of approximately $8.5 million during April 1995 and
approximately $14 million during December 1995. Nevertheless, a decision by
the Company's insurers to modify the Company's program substantially, by either
increasing cost, reducing availability or increasing its collateral
requirements, could have a material adverse effect on the future liquidity and
operations of the Company.
The Company has five defined benefit pension plans. The most significant plan
is the jointly sponsored Amalgamated Transit Union/Greyhound Lines, Inc.
Retirement and Disability Trust (the "ATU Plan"). The ATU Plan was closed to
new participants in November 1983 and, as a result, over 79% of the
participants are 50 or more years old. For financial reporting and investment
planning purposes, the Company uses a mortality table that closely matches the
actual experience related to the existing participant population. If the
Company is required to measure the pension liability, for ERISA funding
purposes, utilizing a 1994 GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and
Trade)-specified table, it will be required to begin making contributions to
the ATU Plan at some time after 1997 in annual amounts potentially ranging from
$2.3 million to $19.8 million. The Company is exploring whether it may be able
to obtain general or specific relief from this requirement. Management
believes, however, that the ATU Plan is currently adequately funded to meet any
future benefit obligations.
In addition to the potential impact on the Company's cash flow due to funding
requirements, the ATU Plan represents a potential risk to the Company's
compliance with the minimum net worth covenant in the Credit Facility. If
liabilities of a pension fund exceed assets, the Company would be required
to record a charge to equity under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
("GAAP"). If the Company were required to record a substantial reduction to
equity due to a substantial decline in interest rates, it could reduce the
Company's net worth below the minimum covenant levels. In such an instance,
the Company would seek a waiver for the minimum net worth requirement to the
extent that it is caused by a reduction to stockholder's equity related to the
ATU Plan. Further discussion of the Company's pension plan is included in the
1995 Form 10-K.
Capital Expenditures. The Company's operations require significant capital and
maintenance expenditures related to the Company's bus fleet, properties and
applications software. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the Company's
capital expenditures totalled $11.4 million, none of which related to the
purchase of buses.
11
<PAGE> 12
The Company has 2,134 buses in its fleet as of June 30, 1996. Approximately
35% of these buses are owned and the remaining buses are leased from various
lessors. From December 1995 to June 30, 1996, the Company took delivery of
approximately 200 buses from Motor Coach Industries International, Inc. (MCII),
all of which were initially subject to interim operating leases (180 day
maximum term). In May 1996, 50 of these buses were converted to long-term
operating leases. Additionally, 26 of these buses were purchased by the
Company in July 1996.
The average age of the bus fleet is 6.5 years at June 30, 1996. The Company's
experience indicates that as the age of its fleet increases, the dependability
and quality of service declines, which may make the Company less competitive.
Additionally, older buses are generally more expensive to repair and maintain.
While the Company could continue to use older buses, the Company intends, over
time, to replace older, less reliable vehicles with new buses. As a result,
during the first six months of 1996, the Company has retired 82 buses over 10
years old and expects to retire 131 more by September 1996. To replace these
buses and to support the planned increase in miles to be operated, the Company
expects to acquire as many as 300 new buses during 1996 and 1997 (of which 150
buses have been received as of June 30, 1996) at an aggregate value of
approximately $75 million. The Company intends to finance these purchases
through cash flows from operations, operating leases and vendor financing.
In May 1996, the Company purchased the terminal facility that it had been
leasing in Columbus, Ohio from Dial for $4.0 million, and in June 1996 signed a
letter of intent with Dial to purchase its terminal in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
for $4.0 million. These two operationally critical facilities are being
purchased from Dial in anticipation of lease terminations in early 1997.
The Company's ability to finance these and other capital expenditures and to
meet its other financial obligations will depend on the Company's future
operating performance, which will be subject to financial, economic, legal and
other factors affecting the business and operations of the Company, many of
which are beyond its control. Although cash flows from operating activities
and the Credit Facility are expected to be sufficient to make a portion of the
Company's planned expenditures, the Company's operating strategy will depend on
the availability of additional sources of financing, such as operating and
capital lease financing or funds provided through sales of assets or sales of
securities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
financing on suitable terms for these purposes.
Certain Contingencies. The Company is subject to various contingencies that
could affect its liquidity position in the future. See "ITEM 1. LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS."
SECOND QUARTER 1996 AND 1995 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's business is seasonal in nature and generally follows the pattern
of the travel business as a whole, with peaks during the summer months and the
Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday periods. Historically, the Company has
experienced substantial seasonal variances in its results of operations with
the second quarter reflecting a loss or minimal net income and the first
quarter typically being a net loss period.

(a) See Operating Revenues for discussion of 1995 restatements.
Operating Income (Loss). Operating income for the three months ended June 30,
1996, was $1.2 million compared to a loss of $2.8 million for the same period
in 1995. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, the operating loss decreased
by $1.0 million to $13.7 million compared to a $14.7 million operating loss for
the year ago period. Operating revenues increased $11.2 million (or 7.0%) and
$21.4 million (or 7.3%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, while
operating expenses increased $7.2 million (or 4.4%) and $20.4 million (or 6.6%)
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same periods
in 1995.
Operating Revenues. Passenger service revenues increased $9.5 million (or
6.9%) and $18.8 million (or 7.6%) for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996, compared to the same periods in 1995 due primarily to increased
ridership. The number of passengers carried increased 3.6% and 3.7% for the
second quarter and first half of 1996 compared to the same periods in 1995.
The increased passenger revenues during the second quarter reflect growth over
the prior year in sales to passengers travelling 1,000 miles or less, partially
offset by a decrease, versus last year, in sales for trips over 1,000 miles.
The Company attributes the modest decline in sales for very long haul trips
(over 1,000 miles) to additions of seat capacity available at very aggressive,
advance purchase pricing by the airline industry in certain markets. Further,
the Company realized substantial increases in this travel segment during 1995,
compared to 1994, and as a result, current very long haul sales remain at
levels substantially higher than those realized in 1994, in spite of the
increased intense competition from the airline industry. In total, however,
revenues and ridership are up, and management believes the overall increases
reflect the continued emphasis on everyday low pricing, improvements in
handling customer telephone calls and more convenient bus schedules. Successful
implementation of premium pricing for weekend travel and extra premium pricing
for holiday travel, as well as price increases on short haul fares, and a mix
shift to higher yielding short haul traffic also improved revenue through the
positive impact on yield. Yield increased to 9.59 cents and 9.48 cents per
mile for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 versus 9.16 cents and
9.20 cents per mile last year. Various 1995 traffic statistics including
passenger miles, passengers carried, average trip length, load factor and yield
have been adjusted to reflect revised treatment of interline activity and to
conform them to 1996 classifications. As a result, applicable statistical
information for 1995 has been changed accordingly from that previously
published to provide consistent comparisons.
Package express delivery service revenues declined $0.5 million (or 5.8%) and
$1.0 million (or 5.6%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995. The Company has begun to increase focus
on this segment of the business in 1996 in order to slow, then reverse the
decline of package express revenues which has occurred over the last few years.
In 1994, the Company reduced the number of routes and the number of hours the
terminals were opened. These reductions resulted in decreased convenience and
level of service for the package express customers. As a result, many
customers discontinued the use of the Company's package express service during
late 1994 and 1995 and began using competitors' services. Service improvements
have already been
13
<PAGE> 14
initiated through increased hours of service and providing more convenient
schedules to its customers, as well as implementation of a centralized
telephone customer service department dedicated to the package express service.
Food Service revenues increased $0.7 million (or 14.7%) and $1.2 million (or
13.8%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same
periods in 1995 due primarily to the addition of three new locations and the
general increase in passenger activity.
Other operating revenues increased approximately $1.6 million (or 14.6%) and
$2.3 million (or 11.7%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995 due primarily to an increase in charter
revenue ($0.9 million and $1.3 million, respectively) and various other
revenues including fees earned related to prepaid ticket orders.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased $7.2 million (or 4.4%)
and $20.4 million (or 6.6%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995. Regular service miles operated for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same periods in 1995
increased by 0.8 million miles (or 1.3%) and 3.8 million miles (or 3.3%),
respectively.
Maintenance costs increased $1.2 million (or 7.1%) and $2.6 million (or 7.8%)
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same periods
in 1995. On a cost per mile basis, expenses increased 4.5% from 26.6 cents per
mile in the second quarter of 1995 to 27.8 cents per mile during the second
quarter of 1996. Similarly, the cost per mile for the six months ended June 30
increased 3.5% from 28.3 cents per mile to 29.3 cents per mile from 1995 to
1996. These increases primarily reflect the Company's efforts to accelerate
engine changes and other maintenance during this off-peak season for buses that
are susceptible to have engine failures during the busy summer period, when
seasonal demands require high utilization of the entire bus fleet. Also
contributing to the increase was a contractual pay rate increase for hourly
maintenance employees.
Transportation expenses increased $3.1 million (or 7.8%) and $8.0 million (or
11.0%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the same
periods in 1995. This increase is partly attributable to an increase in
regular service miles operated of 1.3% and 3.3%, respectively. On a comparable
cost per mile basis, these added miles represented approximately $1.0 million
and $3.0 million of the increase for the three and six month periods ended June
30, 1996. The remainder reflects increases in the period-over-period cost per
mile for transportation expenses during the quarter and six months ended June
30, 1996, when compared to the same periods for 1995. The increases are
comprised primarily of higher fuel prices ($1.5 million and $2.2 million,
respectively), a contractual wage increase for drivers, and additional driver's
supervisory staff.
Agents' commissions and station costs increased $2.3 million (or 7.7%) and $4.1
million (or 7.2%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to
the same periods in 1995, primarily due to increased ticket commission expenses
as a result of increased sales. Additionally, the conversion of 60 company
operated facilities to commission agencies also increased commission expense,
however, these increased expenses were offset by decreases in payroll, facility
costs, utilities and supplies, as these costs became the responsibility of the
agent upon conversion.
Marketing, advertising and traffic costs decreased $2.7 million (or 28.7%) and
$0.6 million (or 4.9%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995. The decreases are due primarily to the
timing of advertising expenditures. In 1995, the Company incurred a great deal
of advertising expense during the second quarter to reestablish its presence
after not advertising at all during the first quarter of 1995.
Insurance and safety costs decreased $2.5 million (or 18.4%) and $2.2 million
(or 9.3%) for the three and six months ending June 30, 1996, compared to the
same periods in 1995. The impact of increased exposure (due to running more
miles than prior year) was more than offset by favorable claims experience in
both automobile and general liability expense and workers' compensation
expense. The favorable trend reflects the impact of the Company's proactive
claims management and risk reduction programs. As these programs become more
established, there could be further improvements in these expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased $3.7 million (or 20.9%) and $5.9
million (or 16.7%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared
to the same periods in 1995. Contributing to this increase is the impact of
$1.0 million in pension income recorded in the second quarter of 1995, while no
pension income has been recorded in 1996. Additionally, due to the Company's
efforts to improve the infrastructure, accounting, information technology and
general management salaries have increased $0.8 million and $1.7 million,
respectively, for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 1996, as compared
to 1995.
14
<PAGE> 15
Higher benefits costs related to the increased headcounts, have also
contributed to the increase.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.3 million (or 4.4%) and $0.4
million (or 3.0%) for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 1996,
compared to the same periods in 1995, partly due to the depreciation on 102
buses which the Company purchased in 1995 and the depreciation related to
capital expenditures made subsequent to June 30, 1995. These increases were
partially offset by the sale-leaseback of 51 buses in April of 1996.
Operating taxes and licenses increased $0.2 million (or 1.6%) and $0.7 million
(or 2.8%) for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 1996, compared to
the same periods in 1995. This increase is partly due to an increase in fuel
and oil taxes as a result of operating more miles in 1996. Also, payroll
related taxes have increased due to higher driver and telephone agent salaries.
These increases were partially offset by the favorable settlement of a
liability related to a dispute regarding sales taxes owed on interstate bus
tickets sold in Oklahoma ($0.4 million).
Operating rental expense increased by $1.4 million (or 12.1%) and $2.2 million
(or 9.6%) for the three and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to the
same periods in 1995. This increase is primarily attributable to the
acquisition of 150 buses under operating leases during the first six months of
1996.
Other operating expenses decreased $0.4 million (or 16.1%) and increased $0.1
million (or 3.0%) for the three and six month periods ending June 30, 1996
compared to the same periods in 1995.
Interest Expense. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, interest expense was
$13.3 million compared to $13.9 million for the 1995 period. Interest expense
decreased due to a $0.6 million reduction in interest expense on the Senior
Notes as a result of the repurchase of $10.7 million of Senior Notes in
December 1995. Increased interest expense related to the increase in
borrowings under the Credit Agreement during the first half of 1996 were offset
by the impact of $0.3 million in interest expense recorded during the first
quarter of 1995 related to the Oklahoma sales tax liability. The claim was
settled in the second quarter of 1996, and the liability was reversed. The
weighted average of the Company's effective interest rate on long-term debt
outstanding as of June 30, 1996 was 12.45%.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
SECURITIES AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION; SEC INVESTIGATION
Between August 1994 and December 1994, seven purported class action lawsuits
were filed by purported owners of the Company's Common Stock, Convertible
Debentures and Senior Notes against the Company and certain of its former
officers and directors. The suits seek unspecified damages for securities law
violations. In November 1994, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed
against present directors and former officers and directors of the Company and
the Company as a nominal defendant. In January 1995 the Company received notice
that the Securities and Exchange Commission is conducting a formal, non-public
investigation into possible securities law violations allegedly involving the
Company and certain other parties. In May 1995, a lawsuit was filed on behalf
of two individuals against the Company and certain of its former officers and
directors alleging securities law violations. See Note 3 to the Interim
Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30,
1996, included elsewhere in this filing.
OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In addition to the litigation discussed above, the Company is a defendant in
various lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business, primarily cases
involving personal injury and property damage claims. Although these lawsuits
involve a variety of different facts and theories of recovery, the majority
arise from traffic accidents involving buses operated by the Company. The vast
majority of these claims are covered by insurance for amounts in excess of the
self-retention or deductible portion of the policies. Therefore, based on the
Company's assessment of known claims and its historical claims payout pattern
and discussion with legal and outside counsel and risk management personnel,
management believes that there is no proceeding either threatened or pending
against the Company relating to such personal injury and/or property damage
claims arising out of the ordinary course of business that, if resolved against
the Company, would materially exceed the amounts recorded.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
ELECTIONS OF DIRECTORS
On May 23, 1996, at the Company's annual stockholders' meeting, Dr. Alfred E.
Osborne, Jr., Mr. Stephen M. Peck and Mr. Ernest P. Werlin were each elected
to serve as Class II directors for three-year terms. In each case, the
election was determined by a plurality vote. Total stockholder votes for and
withheld on the election of Dr. Osborne were 51,092,008 and 357,756,
respectively. Total stockholder votes for and withheld on the election of Mr.
Peck were 51,108,768 and 340,996, respectively. Total stockholder votes for
and withheld on the election of Mr. Werlin were 51,036,742 and 413,002,
respectively. Mr. Thomas G. Plaskett, Mr. Craig R. Lentzsch and Mr. Frank L.
Nageotte continue to serve as Class I directors until their terms expire in
1998. Mr. Richard J. Caley, Ms. Linda Chavez and Mr. A. A. Meitz continue to
serve as Class III directors until their terms expire in 1997. Ms. Chavez
and Mr. Meitz were elected as Class III directors in November 1995 to fill
vacancies on the Board of Directors.
APPROVAL OF 1996 EXECUTIVE OFFICER INCENTIVE PLAN
The 1996 Executive Officer Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors
on January 23, 1996. On May 23, 1996, at the Company's annual stockholders'
meeting, the 1996 Executive Officer Incentive Plan was approved by a majority

APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
The Board of Directors appointed Arthur Andersen LLP as independent public
accountants to examine the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year
ending December 31, 1996, effective upon ratification by the shareholders of
such appointment. Although shareholder ratification is not required for the
selection of Arthur Andersen LLP, since the Board of Directors has the
responsibility for the selection of the Company's independent auditors and such
ratification will not obligate the Company to continue the services of such
firm, the Board of Directors submitted the selection for ratification by
Company shareholders. On May 23, 1996, at the Company's annual stockholders'
meeting, the appointment of Arthur Andersen LLP to serve as independent public
accountants was ratified by a majority vote of the stockholders present or
represented at the meeting and entitled to vote. Total votes for, against and
abstentions were 51,154,424, 153,580 and 141,760, respectively.
