</TABLE>

   The integration costs relate primarily to actions to facilitate the
accounting system consolidation and activities to realign, centralize and
reorganize administrative and other support functions. The costs associated with
terminated transactions relate to expense incurred for acquisition activity that
was terminated.

3.  Borrowing Arrangements

     APCOA/Standard's $140,000 9 1/4% Senior Subordinated Notes were issued in
September of 1998 and are due in March of 2008. The Notes are registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notes were exchanged for
unregistered notes with substantially identical terms, which had been issued
earlier in 1998 to finance the acquisition of Standard and retire certain
existing indebtedness, and for general working capital purposes.

     Holdings' 11 1/4% Senior Discount Notes were issued in September of 1998
and are due in March of 2008. The Discount Notes are registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. The issuance was exchanged for unregistered
notes with substantially identical terms, which had been issued earlier in 1998
to finance the March 1998 acquisitions of Standard.

     In March of 1998, the Company entered into a $40,000 revolving Senior
Credit Facility (the "Facility") with a group of banks. Rates of interest on
borrowings against the Facility are indexed to certain key variable rates. At
March 31, 2000, borrowings under the Facility aggregated $21,900 and there were
letters of credit outstanding against this Facility of $1,250.

     The Notes and Senior Credit Facility contain covenants that limit
APCOA/Standard from incurring additional indebtedness and issuing preferred
stock, restrict dividend payments, limit transaction with affiliates and
restrict certain other transactions. Substantially all of APCOA/Standard's net
assets are restricted under these provisions and covenants (See Note 4).

4.  Subsidiary Guarantors

     All of the Company's direct or indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries,
other than inactive subsidiaries, fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally
guarantee the Senior Subordinated Notes. Separate financial statements of the
guarantor subsidiaries are not separately presented because, in the opinion of
management, such financial statements are not material to investors. The non-
guarantor subsidiaries include joint ventures, wholly owned subsidiaries of the
Company organized under the laws of foreign jurisdictions and inactive
subsidiaries, all of which are included in the consolidated financial
statements. The following is summarized combining financial information for the
Company, the guarantor subsidiaries of the Company and the non-guarantor
subsidiaries of the Company:

PART I    FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

General

     AP Holdings ("Holdings") is a subsidiary of Holberg Industries, Inc.
("Holberg"), which owns 84% of the outstanding voting stock and 69% of the
preferred stock of APCOA/Standard Parking, Inc. ("APCOA/Standard" or "the
Company"). APCOA/Standard accounts for all of Holdings' assets and Holdings
conducts substantially all of its business through APCOA/Standard.

     APCOA/Standard Parking, Inc. ("APCOA/Standard" or "the Company") operates
in a single reportable segment operating parking facilities under two types of
arrangements: management contracts and leases. Under a management contract,
APCOA/Standard typically receives a base monthly fee for managing the property,
and may also receive an incentive fee based on the achievement of facility
revenues above a base amount. In some instances, APCOA/Standard also receives
certain fees for ancillary services. Typically, all of the underlying revenues,
expenses and capital expenditures under a management contract flow through to
the property owner, not to APCOA/Standard. Under lease arrangements,
APCOA/Standard generally pays to the property owner either a fixed annual
rental, a percentage of gross customer collections or a combination thereof.
APCOA/Standard collects all revenues under lease arrangements and is responsible
for most operating expenses, but it is typically not responsible for major
maintenance or capital expenditures. As of March 31, 2000, APCOA/Standard
operated approximately 78% of its 1,834 parking facilities under management
contracts and approximately 22% under leases.

     Parking services revenue--leases. Lease parking services revenues consist
of all gross customer collections received at a leased facility.

     Parking services revenue--management contracts. Management contract
revenues consist of management fees, including both fixed and revenue-based, and
fees for ancillary services such as accounting, equipment leasing, consulting,
and other value-added services with respect to managed locations, but exclude
gross customer collections at such locations. Management contracts generally
provide APCOA/Standard a management fee regardless of the operating performance
of the underlying facility.

     Cost of parking services--leases. Cost of parking services under lease
arrangements consist of (i) contractual rental fees paid to the facility owner
and (ii) all operating expenses incurred in connection with operating the leased
facility. Contractual fees paid to the facility owner are based on either a
fixed contractual amount or a percentage of gross revenue, or a combination
thereof. Generally under a lease arrangement, APCOA/Standard is not responsible
for major capital expenditures or property taxes.

     Cost of parking services--management contracts. Cost of parking services
under management contracts is generally passed through to the facility owner,
therefore these costs are not included in the results of operations of the
Company. Several APCOA/Standard contracts, however, require APCOA/Standard to
pay for certain costs that are offset by larger management fees. These contracts
tend to be large airport properties with high cost structures.

     General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses
include primarily salaries, wages, travel and office related expenses for the
headquarters and field office and supervisory employees.

Summary of Operating Facilities

     The following table reflects the Company's facilities at the end of the
periods indicated:

</TABLE>

     The Company's strategy is to add locations in core cities where a
concentration of locations improves customer service levels and operating
margins. In general, contracts added as set forth in the table above followed
this strategy.

                                       10
<PAGE>

Results of Operations

     Gross customer collections consist of gross receipts collected at all
leased and managed properties, including unconsolidated affiliates. Gross
customer collections increased $49.5 million, or 15.6%, to $366.1 million in the
first quarter of 2000 compared to $316.6 million in the first quarter of 1999.
This increase is attributable to the addition of 180 locations during the
period.

     In analyzing gross margins of APCOA/Standard, it should be noted that the
cost of parking services incurred in connection with the provision of management
services is generally paid by the clients. Margins for lease arrangements are
significantly impacted by variables other than operating performance, such as
variability in parking rates in different cities and widely varying space
utilization by parking facility type.

     The following should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements and notes thereto in Item 1.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months ended March 31, 1999

     Parking services revenue--leases. Lease revenue decreased $2.5 million, or
4.9% to $47.4 million in the first quarter of 2000 as compared to $49.9 million
in the first quarter of 1999. This resulted from the net reduction of 52 leases
through contract expirations, conversions to management contracts and the loss
of one large airport contract in the second half of 1999.

     Parking services revenue--management contracts. Management contract revenue
increased $4.7 million, or 42.5%, to $15.7 million in the first quarter of 2000
as compared to $11.0 million in the first quarter of 1999. This resulted from
the net increase of 232 contracts through internal growth and 1999 acquisitions.

     Cost of parking services--leases. Cost of parking for leases decreased $1.4
million, or 3.1%, to $42.6 million for the first quarter of 2000 from $44.0
million in the first quarter of 1999. This decrease resulted from the reduction
of 52 leases through terminations and conversions to management contracts. Gross
margin for leases declined to 10.1% for the first quarter of 2000 compared to
11.7% for the first quarter of 1999.

     Cost of parking services--management contracts. Cost of parking for
management contracts increased $2.4 million, or 62.1%, to $6.3 million for the
first quarter of 2000 from $3.9 million in the first quarter of 1999. This
increase resulted from the addition of a net total of 232 new contracts through
internal growth and acquisitions. Gross margin for management contracts declined
to 59.8% in the first quarter of 2000 compared to 64.7% for the first quarter of
1999. Most management contracts have no cost of parking services related to them
as all costs are reimbursable to the Company. However, several contracts
(primarily large airport properties and several urban locations) require the
Company to pay for certain costs which are offset by larger management fees. The
increase in cost of parking management contracts was related to the addition of
several contracts of this type.

     General and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses
increased $2.1 million, or 30.0%, to $9.1 million for the first quarter of 2000
as compared to $7.0 million, for the first quarter of 1999. This increase
resulted from costs associated with acquired companies in 1999, inflation, and
investment in the Company's infrastructure.

     Restructuring and other special charges. The Company recorded $0.3 million
of restructuring and other special charges in the first quarter of 2000, as
compared to $0.2 million in the first quarter of 1999, relating to terminated
transaction costs and actions to facilitate the accounting system consolidation
and other support functions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As a result of day-to-day activity at the parking locations, APCOA/Standard
collects significant amount of cash. Under lease contracts, this revenue is
deposited into local APCOA/Standard bank accounts, with a portion remitted to
the clients in the form of rental payments according to the terms of the leases.
Under management contracts, some clients require APCOA/Standard to deposit the
daily receipts into a local APCOA/Standard bank account. Others require the
deposit into a client account, and some have a segregated account for the
receipts and disbursements of the property.

     Locations with revenues deposited into the APCOA/Standard banks enable the
Company to operate with a negative working capital. This negative working
capital arises from the liability that is created for the amount of revenue that
will be remitted to the clients in the form of rents or net profit distributions
subsequent to month end, after the books

                                       11
<PAGE>

are closed and reconciled. Since the Company operates with a revolving Senior
Credit Facility, all funds held for future remittance to the clients are used to
reduce the credit line until the payments are made to the clients.

     Locations with revenue deposited into client accounts or segregated
accounts can, depending upon timing of rent or net profit distributions, result
in significant amounts of cash being temporarily inaccessible to the Company for
use for operating needs. Additionally, the ability to utilize cash deposited
into local APCOA/Standard accounts is dependent upon the movement of that cash
into the Company's corporate account. For these reasons, the Company from time
to time carries significant cash balances, while utilizing its Senior Credit
Facility.

     The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $6.1 million at March 31, 2000
compared to $5.2 million at December 31, 1999.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2000 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

     Net cash used in operating activities totaled $0.6 million for the first
quarter of 2000 compared to $10.9 million for the first quarter of 1999. Cash
used during 2000 included a $6.5 million interest payment on the Senior Credit
Facility, a $1.2 million increase in accounts receivable due to an increase in
the number of locations, offset by increases in accounts payable and other
liabilities of $5.0 million and a decrease in other assets of $1.3 million. Cash
used during 1999 included $5.5 million for the purchase of an insurance tail
policy to cover claims for all years prior to 1999 under APCOA's previous
insurance program, $1.7 million for cash restructuring charges and increases in
accounts receivable relating to acquired contracts and existing locations of
$3.3 million.

     Cash used in investing activities totaled $1.4 million for the first
quarter of 2000 compared to $2.5 million for the first quarter of 1999. Cash
used in investing activities in the first quarter of 2000 resulted from capital
purchases to secure and/or extend leased facilities and investments in
management information system enhancements. Cash used in the first quarter of
1999 resulted from capital purchases including the furnishing and improvement of
the Company's combined office space in Chicago, investment in management
information system enhancements, and capital investments to secure and/or extend
leased facilities.

     Cash generated from financing activities totaled $3.5 million in the first
quarter of 2000. The 2000 activity included $3.8 million in borrowings from the
revolving Senior Credit Facility, partially offset by repayments on long-term
and joint venture borrowings of $0.3 million. The 1999 activity included $5.0
million in borrowings from the revolving Senior Credit Facility, partially
offset by repayments on long-term borrowings of $1.1 million.

Other Liquidity and Capital Resources Information

     The Company's Senior Credit Facility ("the Facility") provides for cash
borrowings up to $35 million and letters of credit up to $5 million, at variable
rates based, at the Company's option, either on LIBOR, the overnight federal
funds rate, or the bank's base rate. From time to time the company utilizes the
Facility to provide readily-accessible cash for working capital purposes. The
Facility includes covenants that limit the Company from incurring additional
indebtedness, issuing preferred stock or paying dividends, and contains certain
other restrictions. At March 31, 2000, the Company had $1.3 million of letters
of credit outstanding under the Facility and borrowings against the Facility
aggregated $21.9 million. The Facility was amended on March 30, 2000, with the
principle changes to the agreement providing for revisions to interest rates
charged on borrowings and certain financial covenants.

     The Company's primary capital requirements are for working capital, capital
expenditures and debt service. The Company believes that cash flow from
operating activities, cash and cash equivalents and borrowings under the Senior
Credit Facility will be adequate to meet the Company's short-term liquidity
requirements prior to the maturity of its long-term indebtedness, although no
assurance can be provided in this regard.

     If the Company identifies investment opportunities requiring cash in excess
of the Company's cash flows and existing cash, the Company may borrow under the
Senior Credit Facility, or may seek additional sources of capital including the
sale or issuance of common stock. From time to time the Company utilizes the
Facility to provide readily-accessible cash for working capital purposes.

Year 2000

     In prior years, the Company discussed the nature and progress of its plans
to become Year 2000 ready. In late

                                       12
<PAGE>

1999, the Company completed its remediation and testing of systems. As a result
of those planning and implementation efforts, the Company experienced no
significant disruptions in mission critical information technology and non-
information technology systems and believes those systems successfully responded
to the Year 2000 date change. The Company is not aware of any material problems
resulting from Year 2000 issues, with its products, its internal systems, or the
products and services of third parties. The Company will continue to monitor its
mission critical computer applications and those of its suppliers and vendors
throughout the year 2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 matters that may
arise are addressed promptly.

Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

     This quarterly report contains certain forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which are
intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements
include, but may not be limited to, the discussions of the Company's
expectations concerning its future profitability, the discussion of the
Company's strategic relationships, discussions about Year 2000 compliance plans,
and the Company's operating and growth assumptions regarding certain matters,
including anticipated cost savings, in preparation of the unaudited financial
information. Investors are cautioned that forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties. Although the Company believes that the assumptions
underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any
of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance
that the forward-looking statements included will prove to be accurate. In light
of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements
included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a
representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans
of the Company will be achieved.

Cautionary Statements

     Holdings and the Company continue to be subject to certain factors that
could cause Holdings and the Company's results to differ materially from
expected and historical results (see the "Risk Factors" set forth in the
Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (No. 333-50433) filed on April 17,
1998, as amended on June 9, 1998, July 15, 1998, August 11, 1998 and August 14,
1998 (the "Registration Statement)).

Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

     The Company's primary market risk exposure consists of risk related to
changes in interest rates. Historically, the Company has not used derivative
financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

     The Company entered into a $40 million revolving variable rate Senior
Credit Facility (see Note D of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements). Interest expense on such borrowing is sensitive to changes in the
market rate of interest. If the Company were to borrow the entire $40 million
available under the Facility, a 1% increase in the average market rate would
result in an increase in the Company's annual interest expense of $0.4 million.

     This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical
interest rates on the Company's borrowing cost, but does not consider the
effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could existing
such an environment. Due to the uncertainty of the specific changes and their
possible effects, the foregoing sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in the
Company's financial structure.

     AP Holdings' parent company is Holberg Industries, Inc. ("Holberg"); a
privately held diversified service company located in Greenwich, Connecticut.
Holberg also owns AmeriServe Food Distribution, Inc. ("AmeriServe"), one of the
nation's largest food service distributors servicing quick-service and casual
dining restaurants in the United States, Canada and Mexico. AmeriServe filed for
bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code on January 31,
2000.

     AP Holdings and AmeriServe are separate and distinct companies with
independent sources of funding. However, the AmeriServe Chapter 11 filing is a
default under certain debt instruments of Holberg. As a result of such defaults,
the creditors of Holberg could take control of Holberg or its subsidiary, AP
Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"). A change in control of Holberg or Holdings would
also constitute a change in control of APCOA under the APCOA/Standard debt
instruments and of Holdings under its bond indenture. In the event of such a
change in control of APCOA/Standard or Holdings, the terms of APCOA/Standard's
senior bank credit facility and subordinated bond indenture and of Holdings'
bond indenture permit the APCOA/Standard and Holdings creditors, if they believe
it were in their interest to do so, to call for immediate payment under such
instruments, and APCOA/Standard's or Holdings' failure to pay on such terms
would

                                       13
<PAGE>

constitute a default thereunder. Holberg and its creditors are negotiating to
restructure the debt and eliminate the defaults created as a result of the
AmeriServe Chapter 11 filing. Although Holberg currently expects to complete the
restructuring of the debt, and further currently expects that is creditors will
not in any event seek to obtain control of Holberg or Holdings, there can be no
assurance that Holberg will be successful in restructuring its debt and
eliminating the existing defaults, or that Holberg's creditors will not seek to
obtain control of Holberg or Holdings, and should APCOA/Standard's or Holdings'
indebtedness be accelerated as a result of any action by Holberg's creditors,
there is no assurance that APCOA/Standard or Holdings would have sufficient
funds to satisfy such obligations.

PART II      OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

          In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in disputes,
generally regarding the terms of lease agreements. In the opinion of management,
the outcome of these disputes and litigation will not have a material adverse
effect on the consolidated financial position or operating results of the
Company.
