NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 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 March 31, 1996, and the
results of its operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31,
1996 and 1995. Due to the seasonality of the Company's operations, the results
of its operations for the interim period ended March 31, 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 assumes the dilutive effect of the Company's 8.5% Convertible
Subordinated Debentures due 2007 (the "Convertible Debentures") converted into
Common Stock. For the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, 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 not included in the weighted average shares outstanding at March 31, 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 months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 are as follows:

3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
OKLAHOMA SALES TAX CLAIM
In January 1991, the Oklahoma Tax Commission ("OTC") filed a proof of claim
with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Company's 1990 Chapter 11
bankruptcy case. That claim related to sales taxes which the OTC alleged were
due and owing by the Company on interstate bus tickets sold in Oklahoma. The
OTC claim involved a proposed assessment of approximately $908,000 plus
additional interest from the date of the claim.
The Company objected to the claim on the basis that the tax the OTC proposed to
assess was an improper burden on interstate commerce in violation of the
Commerce Clause of the United States Constitution. In February 1993, the
Bankruptcy Court denied the OTC's claim in its entirety, finding that the
Oklahoma sales tax on interstate travel was unconstitutional. The OTC
subsequently appealed the Bankruptcy Court's decision. In April 1995, the
United States Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of a sales tax imposed
on interstate bus tickets by the State of
7
<PAGE> 8
Oklahoma in a case involving another bus company. Subsequent to the Supreme
Court's decision, the Company's case was remanded to the Bankruptcy Court. In
April 1995, the Company began collecting sales taxes from its customers for
interstate bus tickets sold in Oklahoma. Additionally, the OTC conducted an
audit for the sales taxes due for the period from August 1992 to December 1995.
The Company established a reserve during 1995 for its estimate of the liability
for the Bankruptcy claim and such audits. Effective as of January 1, 1996, by
federal legislation, all states, including Oklahoma, are prohibited from
collecting sales, use or similar taxes on interstate bus tickets.
In April 1996, the Company and the OTC agreed to a settlement of all
outstanding sales tax liabilities for both the bankruptcy claim period and
subsequent audit period. The final settlement is subject to court approval,
however, the Company does not expect the obligation to materially exceed the
amounts recorded.
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 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 and Lynch 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
8
<PAGE> 9
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 present and 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 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, 73 locations have been identified as
sites requiring potential clean-up and/or remediation as of March 31, 1996.
The Company has estimated the clean-up and/or remediation cost of these sites
to be $4.7 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 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 Environmental Protection Agency's (the "EPA") 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 $1.0
million receivable from Dial for indemnification at March 31, 1996, including
costs associated with previously remediated sites. The Company has also
recorded a total environmental reserve of $4.2 million, at March 31, 1996, for
noncapitalizable expenses related to the sites identified for potential
clean-up and/or remediation. The reserve amount for these sites is based on
discounted cash flows at a discount rate of 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. The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-3
relating to the sale of up to 10,004,144 shares of Common Stock which was
declared effective on September 28, 1995, and on October 3, 1995, the sale of
the stock was completed. Of the 10,004,144 total shares sold, four million
shares were sold by the Company and 6,004,144 shares were sold by Motor Coach
Industries Limited, a selling stockholder. The Company did not receive any
portion of the proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by the selling
stockholder.
Net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 4,000,000 shares of Common
Stock offered by the Company were $15.4 million. In December 1995, the
Company used $9.7 million of the net proceeds it received to repurchase (the
"Senior Note Repurchase") $10.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 10%
Senior Notes due 2001 (the "Senior Notes") pursuant to a put/call agreement with
one of the Company's principal stockholders. The purchase price for the Senior
Notes was based on arm's-length negotiations. The Company used the remaining
net proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock for general corporate purposes.
Pending use, the net proceeds to the Company from the offering were invested in
short-term, interest-bearing securities or were used to reduce the borrowings
under the Credit Facility (defined herein).
Capital Structure and Leverage. The Company had $201.1 million in long-term
debt outstanding (excluding $16.3 million of issued and undrawn standby letters
of credit) at March 31, 1996, which primarily consisted of the Company's Senior
Notes. Also included in long-term debt were outstanding borrowings of $30.5
million under the Credit Facility (defined herein). Although the Company
generally requires significant cash flows to meet its debt and other continuing
obligations, the Senior Note Repurchase will reduce 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 has been reduced from $8.2
million to $7.6 million (each January 31 and July 31). The Senior Notes
sinking fund requirements for 1996, in the amount of $8.0 million, will be 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. As a result of the application of the remaining Senior Note
Repurchase, 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 $14.8 million in the aggregate for other debt
service, $11.5 million of which is interest (including the remaining interest
payment on the Senior Notes due in July) and $31.2 million for bus, real estate
and other operating lease obligations during the remainder of 1996.
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 quarter ended March 31, 1996, operating activities used net cash
of $28.3 million. The net cash required for operating activities, as well as
cash required for investing activities, were funded by cash provided by
financing activities, principally revolving advances under the Company's Credit
Facility (defined herein). At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents of $0.8 million and available borrowing capacity of $15.1 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 $23.1
million at March 31, 1996.
The Company is party to a revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility").
At March 31, 1996, the Credit Facility provided for revolving loans, letters of
credit and letter of credit guarantees up to a maximum commitment of $73.5
million, with syndication commitments totalling $70.0 million. As of March
31, 1996, there were approximately $16.3 million in issued and undrawn standby
letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Facility, and outstanding
borrowings of $30.5 million under the Credit Facility. In April 1996, the
Company amended the Credit Facility (the "Amended Credit Facility") to increase
the maximum commitment to $80.0 million. Syndication commitments under the
Amended Credit Facility, including Foothill's commitment as the lead agent,
total $80.0 million at May 1, 1996. Availability under the Amended 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
10
<PAGE> 11
$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 Amended Credit Facility
limits letters of credit and letters of credit guarantees to $35.0 million.
Although there were total syndication commitments of $80.0 million as of May 1,
1996, the Company had pledged sufficient collateral to activate only up to
$61.0 million. As of May 1, 1996, the Company had $ 21.2 million of issued and
undrawn letters of credit and outstanding borrowings under the Amended Credit
Facility of $19.2 million leaving $20.6 in available borrowing capacity.
Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility mature on January 15, 1999,
although availability under the Fixed Asset Advances will be subject to
quarterly reductions commencing October 1997, unless additional collateral is
pledged. The Amended 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. The Amended Credit Facility allows the Company to dispose
of certain non-core real estate properties. In addition, non-bus capital
expenditures are limited to $25.0 million annually with no spending limitations
on bus purchases.
The Amended 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 March 31, 1996, the Company was in compliance with these
covenants. In addition, the Amended 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. 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
March 31, 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.
Pension Plan Status.
Funding Requirements. The Company has five defined benefit pension plans. The
most significant plan is the Greyhound Lines, Inc. Retirement and Disability
Trust (the "ATU Plan") which covers approximately 17,000 current and former
employees, primarily drivers, fewer than 1,500 of whom are active employees as
of December 31, 1995. 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.
In December 1994, the Congress passed the General Agreement on Tariffs and
Trade ("GATT") legislation. Included in this bill was a specification that
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") funding
requirements for pension plans be calculated using a specific actuarial
mortality table ("GATT-specified table"). This GATT-specified table differs
significantly from the table the Company has been using to value the pension
liabilities for financial reporting purposes. If the Company is required to
measure the pension liability, for ERISA funding purposes, utilizing the
GATT-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. Management believes, however, that the ATU Plan
is currently adequately funded to meet the future benefit
11
<PAGE> 12
obligations. In fact, as measured for financial reporting purposes, the ATU
Plan's assets exceeded liabilities by $48.3 million at December 31, 1995. If,
however, the Company is required to measure ERISA funding requirements using
the GATT-specified table, and fund accordingly, the Company believes that the
ATU Plan will be over-funded on an actual basis. Additionally, the ATU Plan
documents provide that if the Company is required to make contributions,
benefits will be frozen and active participants will not accrue any further
benefits for continued service. This freeze could contribute to further
over-funding since the earnings on the assets that are normally applied to fund
current service accruals would be entirely applied to increase the funding
levels of the ATU Plan. If the ATU Plan is over-funded, the excess assets
cannot be returned to the Company.
The Company is exploring whether it may be able to obtain general or specific
relief from this requirement.
Pension Plan Accounting Treatment. 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 Amended Credit Facility, particularly due to the size of the ATU Plan
liabilities ($701.8 million at December 31, 1995) relative to the Company's net
worth. Generally accepted accounting principles, which are different from
ERISA funding requirements, require that if the liabilities of a pension fund
exceeds its assets, a reduction in stockholder's equity be taken for the amount
that liabilities exceed assets for any particular pension plan. At December
31, 1995, the ATU Plan's assets exceed the liabilities by $48.3 million, as
measured for accounting purposes. A substantial further decline in market
interest rates, among other factors, could result in the ATU Plan's liabilities
exceeding the ATU Plan's assets as measured for accounting purposes.
Additionally, in the event that the ATU Plan's liabilities exceed assets, the
prepaid pension asset related to the ATU Plan ($23.8 million at December 31,
1995) would be reversed and stockholder's equity would be reduced by this
amount, as well. There is no cash impact of such an event. Although
management feels that it is unlikely that events would require the Company to
record such a charge to equity, if the Company were required to record a
substantial reduction to equity due to the above described pension accounting
requirements, 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.
The determination of the requirement of a reduction to stockholder's equity is
made on a plan by plan basis. Stockholder's equity reflects a reserve of $3.6
million related to the Greyhound Lines, Inc. Salaried Employees' Defined
Benefit Plan (the "Salaried Plan"). The related size of the Salaried Plan
($36.7 million in plan liabilities at December 31, 1995) does not present
substantial risk to the Company's net worth.
Capital Expenditures. The Company's operations require significant annual
capital and maintenance expenditures related to the Company's bus fleet,
properties and systems software. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the
Company's capital expenditures totalled $2.3 million, none of which related to
the purchase of buses. During June and July 1995, the Company took delivery of
102 new buses from Motor Coach Industries International, Inc. ("MCII"). These
buses were initially subject to a month-to-month operating lease but were
purchased by the Company during December 1995. During April 1996, fifty-one of
these buses were sold and leased back by the Company for net proceeds of $12.6
million. The Company also took delivery of and purchased 13 buses from MCII
in September 1995, and an additional 10 buses in December 1995. These twenty-
three buses were sold and leased back by the Company in December 1995 for net
proceeds of $6.2 million. During December 1995, February 1996 and April 1996,
the Company took delivery of 50, 20 and 48 new buses, respectively, from MCII.
These buses are currently subject to month-to-month operating leases (180 day
maximum term). At the end of the respective lease terms (or earlier, at the
Company's discretion), the Company may either purchase the buses, finance them
through other lenders or lessors (including the Amended Credit Facility), or
convert to a long-term operating lease with MCII or its assignee.
The average age of the bus fleet increased to 6.8 years at March 31, 1996
compared to 6.7 years at December 31, 1995, a change the Company believes is
immaterial. As of March 31, 1996, approximately 29% of the Company's bus fleet
was more than 10 years old compared to 30% at December 31, 1995. 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.
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 1996 the Company expects to retire 212 buses that are 10 or more years
old. To replace these buses and to support the planned increase in miles to be
operated, the Company expects to acquire at least 150 and as many as 250 new
buses in 1996 (of which 68 buses have been received as of 4/30/96) at an
aggregate cost of between approximately $37 million and $62 million. The
Company intends to finance these purchases through cash flows
12
<PAGE> 13
from operations, operating leases and vendor financing. Management believes
that a continuing significant delay in acquiring these new buses could
adversely affect future operations due to the higher operating costs associated
with operating older buses and the inability to implement fully the Company's
plans to increase total bus miles.
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 Amended 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."
FIRST 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 first quarter typically being a net loss period.
The following table presents certain of the Company's consolidated operating
statistics for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995:

</TABLE>
Operating Income (Loss). Operating loss for the three months ended March 31,
1996, was $14.9 million compared to a loss of $11.8 million for the same period
in 1995. Operating revenues increased $9.9 million (or 7.5%) for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, while operating expenses increased $12.9 million
(or 9.0%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same
period in 1995.
Operating Revenues. Passenger service revenues increased $9.3 million (or
8.5%) for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in
1995 due primarily to increased ridership. The number of passengers carried
increased 8.1% for the first quarter of 1996 compared to 1995. Management
believes the increase in ridership reflects the introduction of everyday low
pricing, improvements in handling customer telephone calls and more convenient
bus schedules. The impact of reductions in long-haul prices, in order to
stimulate travel (part of our
13
<PAGE> 14
everyday low pricing strategy), had slightly greater impact on yield than price
increases realized on certain short-haul fares. As a result, yield decreased
slightly (2.2%) to 9.35 cents per mile versus 9.56 cents per mile last year.
Also contributing to higher passenger revenues was an improvement in interline
activity, which reflects an increase in the number of tickets being sold by
other carriers for all or a portion of the travel occurring on Greyhound. The
Company expects improvements in its interline relationships to continue.
Package express delivery service revenues declined $0.5 million (or 5.3%) in
the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995.
The Company is beginning to see a slowing of the decline of the package express
business. 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. In an
effort to reduce this revenue decline, the Company has made improvements to its
service levels in the package express business by increasing hours 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.
Other operating revenues increased approximately $0.8 million (or 8.3%) for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995 due
primarily to an increase in charter revenue and an increase in fees earned
related to prepaid ticket orders.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses increased $12.9 million (or 9.0%)
for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995.
Regular service miles operated for the three months ended March 31, 1996,
compared to 1995 increased by 3.0 million miles (or 5.5%).
Maintenance costs for the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the
same period in 1995, increased by $1.4 million (or 8.5%). On a cost per mile
basis, expenses increased from 30.3 cents per mile during the first quarter of
1995 to 31.0 cents per mile during the first quarter of 1996 and primarily
reflect the Company's efforts to accelerate engine changes and other
maintenance during this off-peak season for buses that are projected to have
engine failures during the busy summers 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 $4.9 million (or 15.0%) for the three months
ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, due in part to an
increase of 3.4 million (or 6.1%) miles operated. On a comparable
cost-per-mile basis, the added miles represented approximately $2.0 million of
the increase. The remainder is due to increases in the quarter-over-quarter
cost-per-mile for transportation expenses, which increased from 59.1 cents per
mile in the first quarter of 1995 to 64.0 cents per mile in the first quarter
of 1996. The variance in the cost-per-mile reflects a 12.1% increase in fuel
prices (a $0.8 million impact), a reduction in fuel economy associated with the
bad weather, a contractual wage increase for drivers, and increased driver
hiring and training. Driver hiring and training contributed $0.9 million to
the variance for the three months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same
period in 1995.
Agents' commissions and station costs increased $1.8 million (or 6.6%) for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. Total
agents' commission and station costs increased over the prior year primarily
due to commissions on higher sales and additional terminal staffing required to
handle the increase in traffic. An additional increase in commission expenses
due to the conversion of approximately 70 company-operated facilities to
commission agents, was offset by corresponding decreases in payroll, facility
costs, utilities and supplies since these became the responsibility of the
agent upon conversion. Also, the Company handled 0.9 million (or 20.1%) more
calls for the three month period ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same
period in 1995. The Company achieved the improved call handling by opening a
new telephone center and improving staffing in its existing center while
reducing call activity being directed to outsource telephone answering service
providers. As a result, a $0.8 million increase in telephone information
center salaries and long-distance costs related to the increased call handling
was partially offset by the reduction of costs related to the outsource
service provider.
Marketing, advertising and traffic costs increased $2.1 million (or 65.8%) for
the three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, due
primarily to an increase in advertising expense in the first quarter of 1996.
14
<PAGE> 15
Insurance and safety costs increased $0.3 million (or 2.3%) for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995. The
automobile and general liability expense increased in the first quarter of 1996
due to the additional claims exposure related to the increased miles operated.
A portion of the increase is offset by a decline in worker's compensation
expenses due to a reduction in claims reflecting the impact of management's
proactive risk reduction programs.
General and administrative expenses increased $1.9 million (or 10.6%) for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, due in
part, to a $0.8 million increase in accounting, information technology and
general management salaries which reflect necessary improvements to the
Company's infrastructure. Additionally, increased business activity (sales and
passengers) resulted in increased supplies, forms and printing costs compared
to last year. Consulting expenses increased due to market research being done
on bus travel along the border and in Mexico.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $0.1 million (or 1.6%) for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995 primarily due
to depreciation on 102 buses which the Company purchased in December 1995.
Operating taxes and licenses decreased $0.9 million (or 7.1%) for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, primarily as a
result of a reserve recorded in the first quarter of 1995 for past sales taxes
potentially owed on interstate bus tickets sold in Oklahoma. This decrease was
partially offset by an increase in fuel and oil taxes for the three months ended
March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995 due to the increase in miles
run by the Company. Also, payroll-related taxes have increased in 1996 due to
increased salaries, primarily for drivers and telephone information agents.
Operating rental expense increased by $0.8 million (or 7.1%) for the three
months ended March 31, 1996, compared to the same period in 1995, primarily due
to an increase in bus rents because of the sale/leaseback of 23 buses in
December 1995 and additional operating leases for 50 buses which commenced in
December 1995 and for 20 buses which commenced in February 1996. Station rents
also increased $0.3 million, the largest component of which is related to rent
for the New York terminal where the Company pays a portion of its rent based on
ticket sales which are increasing.
Other operating expenses increased $0.5 million (or 33.4%) for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.
Interest Expense. For the three months ended March 31, 1996, interest expense
was $6.6 million compared to $6.9 million for the first quarter of 1995.
Interest expense decreased $0.2 million (or 3.5%) for the three months ending
March 31, 1996, compared to 1995 due primarily to a $0.3 million reduction in
interest expense on the Senior Notes resulting from the repurchase of $10.7
million of Senior Notes in December 1995, and the impact of $0.3 million in
interest expense recorded during the first quarter 1995 related to the Oklahoma
sales tax liability. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in
interest expense related to a greater average outstanding balance under the
Credit Agreement during the first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter
of 1995. The weighted average of the Company's effective interest rate on
long-term debt outstanding as of March 31, 1996 was 12.34%.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
OKLAHOMA SALES TAX CLAIM
In January 1991, the OTC filed a proof of claim with the Bankruptcy Court in
connection with the Company's 1990 Chapter 11 bankruptcy case. Additionally,
the OTC has conducted an audit of sales taxes owing for the period of July 1992
to December 1995. The claims relate to sales taxes which the OTC alleged were
due and owing by the Company on interstate bus tickets sold in Oklahoma. In
April 1996, the Company and the OTC agreed to a settlement of all outstanding
sales tax liabilities for both the bankruptcy claim period and subsequent audit
period. See Note 3 to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, included elsewhere in this filing.
SECURITIES AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION; SEC INVESTIGATION
Between August 1994 to 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 addition, in January 1995 the Company
received notice that the Securities and Exchange Commission is conducting a
formal, non-public investigation into possible securities laws violations
allegedly involving the Company and certain other parties. See Note 3 to the
Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31,
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

read as follows:
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, including the amount of the Maximum Credit and the
Maximum Borrowing Amount, Foothill agrees to make revolving
advances to Borrower in an amount not to exceed the sum of:
(i) the lesser of: (x) eighty-five percent (85%) of

<PAGE> 3
plus (ii) Forty-Seven Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($47,500,000), which amount is subject to
reduction and/or increase in accordance with the terms of this
Section 2.1(a)(ii) and Section 3.6 (the "Tranche A Borrowing

Collateral). In lieu of making the dollar reductions of the
Tranche A Borrowing Base scheduled for October 15, 1997 and
January 15, 1998, as set forth in clause (1) of the prior
sentence, Borrower may elect to pledge to Foothill, to support

consisting of buses having an aggregate bulk wholesale value
of at least 125% of such scheduled dollar reduction of the

Tranche A Borrowing Base.

Borrower's actual cost (excluding costs of acquisition and
transportation) of the Tranche B Collateral in which Foothill
has been granted a first priority, perfected security interest
from time to time by Borrower to either activate or increase,
as the case may be, the Tranche B Borrowing Base (the product
thereof being rounded down to the nearest One Million Dollar
($1,000,000) if the amount over a One Million Dollar
($1,000,000) increment is Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000), or less, or rounded up to the nearest One Million
Dollar ($1,000,000) increment if the amount over a One Million
Dollar ($1,000,000) increment is more than Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($500,000)); provided, however, the
availability and amount of the Tranche B Borrowing Base is
subject to the amount of the Maximum Credit, and in no event

to the activation or any increase, as the case may be, of the
Tranche

<PAGE> 4
B Borrowing Base, Borrower shall have taken such actions with respect
to such Tranche B Collateral as Foothill shall require in accordance
with Section 4.4. For each separate item of Tranche B Collateral
pledged to Foothill in accordance with the terms of this Section
2.1(a)(iii), the Tranche B Borrowing Base shall thereafter be reduced
on the first day of the thirteenth month following the date that such
Tranche B Collateral was pledged to Foothill, and continuing on the
first day of each third month thereafter by an amount equal to five
percent (5%) of the Tranche B Borrowing Base attributable to such
Tranche B Collateral pledged to Foothill. Concurrently with each such
quarterly reduction, Borrower shall make a principal reduction payment
to Foothill in such amount as shall be required in order to reduce the
principal balance of advances owing under the Tranche B Borrowing Base
to the amount of the Tranche B Borrowing Base, as so reduced on such
date, together with all accrued but unpaid interest on the amount of
such principal reduction payment calculated in accordance with Section
2.5. At Borrower's request, so long as an Event of Default is not
continuing, Foothill shall release any security interests previously
granted to it in and upon the Tranche B Collateral, or any portion
thereof, or shall redesignate as Tranche A Additional Collateral
certain Vehicles presently constituting Tranche B Collateral;
provided, however, that concurrently therewith, the Tranche B
Borrowing Base shall be reduced to an amount equal to seventy-five
percent (75%) of Borrower's actual cost (excluding costs of
acquisition and transportation) of the Tranche B Collateral, if any,
which thereafter remains subject to Foothill's security interest and
is designated as Tranche B Collateral (the product thereof being
rounded down to the nearest One Million Dollar ($1,000,000)
increment); provided, further, that prior to any release or
redesignation of the Tranche B Collateral, Borrower shall have made a
principal reduction payment to Foothill in such amount as shall be
required in order to reduce the principal balance of advances owing
under the Tranche B Borrowing Base to the amount of the Tranche B
Borrowing Base, as reduced by the amount of such release and/or
redesignation of the Tranche B Collateral, together with all accrued
but unpaid interest on the amount of such principal reduction payment.

Annex II
PERFORMANCE ASSURANCE PROVISIONS
1. Security Interest. As security for its obligations under
the ISDA Master Agreement to which this Annex is attached and into which this
Annex is incorporated (the "Agreement"), Party A has agreed to deliver to party
B the Letter of Credit and Mortgages on the Real Properties initially listed on
Annex I hereto and after the first date of providing such collateral from time
to time in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Annex. Party A
hereby pledges all such property (together with all proceeds thereof, the
"Collateral") to Party B and grants to Party B a continuing security interest
in and lien on such Collateral. Party A further agrees to take any reasonable
action which Party B may require or deems necessary in order to create,
validate, confirm or perfect such pledge and security interest.
2. Release of Collateral.
(a) On and after the Coverage Trigger Date, if
(x) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (y) the Appraised
Value of the Real Estate exceeds the Coverage Amount at such time, then Party A
may request in writing that Party B shall release its security interest in
certain Real Estate (the "Excess Real Estate") having a value equal to such
excess amount. If Party B receives an Officer's Certificate from the Chief
Financial Officer of Party A stating that Party A shall be in compliance with
all terms and conditions of the Refinancing Facility both before and after
giving effect to the release of such Excess Real Estate, then (1) Party B shall
release such Excess Real Estate and return such property to Party A in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4 below and (2) the
Coverage Amount shall be reduced accordingly.
(b) As used in this Annex, "Performance Exposure"
means, on any day, the Future Obligations discounted by rates determined by the
LIBOR interest rate curve in effect on such day, which would be payable to
Party B if the Agreement were terminated as of such day as the result of an
Event of Default with respect to Party A and a payment was due to Party B
pursuant to Section 6(e)(i) thereof.
3. Collateral.
(a) Party B may consent, in its sole discretion,
upon written request by Party A, to modify or supplement the list of real
properties acceptable as Collateral by executing and delivering written
amendments to this Annex, which shall be signed by both parties (in counterpart
or otherwise).
(b) Party B reserves the right to recalculate the
fair market or the appraised value of the Real Estate (as determined in good
faith and a commercially reasonable manner by Party B) at any time. Upon a
determination by Party B of revised Appraised Values,
1
<PAGE> 6
such new values shall be automatically substituted for the values set forth on
Annex I and appropriate adjustments shall be made, if necessary, in the Real
Estate to be held by Party B, and/or released pursuant to Section 2 above
and/or added pursuant to Section 3(c).
(c) If on any New York Banking Day after the
Coverage Trigger Date, the Coverage Amount exceeds the Appraised Value of the
Real Estate at such time because of a change in such Appraised Value, then
Party B may, on demand, require Party A to deliver additional Collateral in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4 below so that, after
giving effect to such delivery, such Appraised Value will equal or exceed the
Coverage Amount.
4. Transfers.
(a) Demands for delivery or return of Collateral
may be made in writing and Collateral that is demanded by 10:00 a.m., New York
time, on a New York Banking Day shall be delivered by the close of business on
the following New York Banking Day. It shall be a Termination Event with
respect to a party if such party fails to deliver or return Collateral as
required by any Section of this Annex and such failure continues for two New
York Banking Days after notice from the other party.
(b) In the case of Collateral consisting of
securities which are transferable by book- entry, deliveries or returns of such
securities shall be effected by book entries on the records of the applicable
Federal Reserve Bank or clearing corporation. In the case of Collateral
consisting of securities which are not transferable by book-entry, deliveries
or returns of such securities shall be effective by delivery of the security to
the transferee or its designee in appropriate physical form for legally valid
transfer. In the case of Collateral consisting of cash, deliveries or returns
of such cash shall be effected by deposit thereof in the account designated by
the transferee.
(c) All deliveries and returns of Collateral
shall be rounded to the nearest integral multiple of $250,000 ( and shall be
rounded up, if exactly between two such multiples).
5. Collateral Maintenance.
(a) All cash or cash equivalent Collateral
received by party B from Party A shall be entered in one or more accounts
(each, a "Collateral Account") at Bankers Trust Company, each of which may
include property of other parties but will bear a title indicating that the
property in such Collateral Account is held as security. Party B shall have no
interest in the Collateral except the security interest granted in Section 1
above until it has acquired some greater interest by exercise of its rights
pursuant to Section 6 below. Party B shall cause statements concerning the
Collateral held in each Collateral Account to be delivered to Party A on
request, which may not be made more frequently than once in each calendar
month.

<PAGE> 7
(b) Party A may substitute acceptable property
for other acceptable property then held as Collateral by Party B, provided that
the value of such substitute property for the purposes of this Annex is at
least equal to that of the property being replaced and provided further that
notice of such proposed substitution is given to Party B prior to 10:00 a.m.
New York time, on the new York Banking Day on which such substitution is to
occur. Party B shall return Collateral which has been replaced by the close of
business on the New York Banking Day following the day on which the relevant
substitute Collateral is received in the relevant Collateral Account.
(c) Any payment or other distribution in respect
of property being held as cash or cash equivalent Collateral (a "Payment")
shall be remitted to Party A within one New York Banking Day after such Payment
is received so long as (i) Party A shall have complied with all of its
obligations, if any, under Section 2 above, shall have made all payments due
and payable under the Agreement and no Event of Default or Potential Event of
Default with respect to Party A shall have occurred and be continuing and ((ii)
after giving effect so such remittance, the value of the remaining Collateral
for the purposes of this Annex will be equal to or greater than that required
hereunder. Any Payment or any part thereof retained by Party B shall be held
as additional Collateral.
6. Financial Reporting Requirements. Party A hereby
covenants and agrees that on the Amendment Effective Date and thereafter for so
long as this Agreement is in effect and until all obligations hereunder are
paid in full, Party A will furnish to Party B copies of the annual and
quarterly financial statements that Party A files with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC"), such reports to be furnished by Party A to Party B
within thirty (30) days of the filing date with the SEC.
7. Rights on Termination.
(a) On or after an Early Termination Date, if any
amount is payable by Party A to Party B under the Agreement, Party B may
exercise any of the rights and remedies of a secured party with respect to the
Collateral, including any such rights and remedies under then applicable law,
in order to recover amounts owing to it under the Agreement. The exercise of
such rights and remedies shall be free from any equity, right of redemption or
other claim or right of any nature whatsoever of Party A. Party B shall not be
required to realize on the Collateral prior to collecting from Party A. Party
A shall in all events remain liable for any amounts remaining unpaid after
realization on the Collateral and application of proceeds. Party B shall
return any surplus proceeds or Collateral remaining after any such realization
and application.
(b) Any liquidation of non-cash Collateral shall
be accomplished by a public or private sale of the Collateral conducted by
Party B in a commercially reasonable manner with such notice, if any, as may be
required by applicable law. Party B or any of its affiliates may be the
purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold. Party A acknowledges and
agrees that Collateral comprised of securities may decline speedily in value
and is of a type
3
<PAGE> 8
customarily sold on a recognized market and, accordingly, Party A is not
entitled to prior notification of any sale or intended disposition of such
Collateral by Party B. All costs and expenses, including, without limitation,
brokers' fees, sales or other commissions, and attorneys' fees and expenses,
incurred by or on behalf of Party B in connection with its realization on any
Collateral shall be payable immediately by Party A and shall be additional
obligations due under the Agreement which are secured by the Collateral.
8. Representations. Party A continuously represents,
warrants and agrees that:
(a) it has the power under the laws of the
jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation and under its organizational
documents to grant to Party B a security interest in any property it may
transfer as Collateral;
(b) as of each date on which it transfers
property as Collateral to Party B, it will have title to and will be the sole
owner of such property, free and clear of any security interest, lien,
encumbrance or other restrictions other than the security interest granted
hereby;
(c) upon transfer of any property as Collateral
to Party B in accordance with the terms of this Annex, Party B will have a
valid and perfected security interest in such Collateral; and
(d) the performance by it of its obligations
under this Annex will not violate the provisions of any other indenture,
agreement or other document to which it or its assets are bound or result in
the creation of any security interest, lien or other encumbrance on it or any
of its property other than the security interest granted hereby.
