DR PEPPER BOTTLING HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Unaudited
September 30, 1995
1. GENERAL
-------
The accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Dr Pepper
Bottling Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings") and its wholly owned
subsidiary, Dr Pepper Bottling Company of Texas (the "Company" or
"Subsidiary"), and of Dr Pepper Bottling Company of Texas as of
September 30, 1995, and December 31, 1994, the related
consolidated condensed statements of operations for the three
months and nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, the
related consolidated condensed statements of stockholders'
deficit for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, and the
related consolidated condensed statements of cash flows for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994 are unaudited but,
in the opinion of the Company and Holdings, reflect all
adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary
for a fair presentation. Such financial statements are for
interim periods and do not include all detail normally provided
in annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements of the Company and Holdings, and
notes thereto, included in the Prospectus of the Company and
Holdings, dated May 9, 1995, relating to the Company's 10
1/4% Senior Notes due 2000 (the "Senior Notes") and Holdings' 11
5/8% Senior Discount Notes due 2003 (the "Discount Notes"), filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (File Nos. 33-56292
and 33-56292-01, respectively) (the "Prospectus").
Effective October 28, 1988, Holdings acquired all of the
outstanding common stock of the Company (the "Acquisition") in a
business combination accounted for as a purchase. As Holdings is
essentially a holding company whose principal asset is its
investment in the Company, all purchase adjustments have been
recorded on the books of the Company. To the extent that the
Acquisition included new investors, the Company adjusted
property, plant and equipment to their estimated fair values as
of the Acquisition date and retired related accumulated
depreciation.
Holdings, through its subsidiary, is principally engaged in
producing, marketing and distributing carbonated soft drinks in
Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston, Waco, and Galveston. Soft drink
operations are conducted pursuant to franchise agreements with
companies owning the rights to soft drink formulae.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
------------------------------------------
(a) Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid debt instruments with
original maturities of three months or less.
(b) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out (FIFO)
cost or market.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
(c) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. For financial
reporting purposes, depreciation is provided on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred;
renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated. The
cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or disposed of
are removed from the accounts. Resultant profit or loss on such
transactions is credited or charged to earnings.
(d) Intangible Assets
Excess of cost over fair market value of net assets of acquired
business and costs of franchises are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 10 to 40 years.
(e) Other Assets
Debt issuance costs incurred in connection with acquisitions and
the recapitalization plan described below are deferred and will
be amortized by the interest method over the terms of the related
debt agreements (7 to 25 years). Covenants not to compete are
amortized over the terms of the agreements (5 to 10 years).
(f) Marketing Expense
Marketing costs include costs of advertising, marketing and
promotional programs. Prepaid advertising consists of various
marketing, media and advertising prepayments; these assets are
expensed in the year used. Marketing costs, other than
prepayments, are expensed in the year incurred.
3. RECAPITALIZATION PLAN
---------------------
During the first quarter of 1993, the Company and Holdings
completed a recapitalization plan (the "Recapitalization Plan")
the purpose of which plan was to reduce the aggregate amount of
interest expense and preferred stock dividend requirements. The
Company recorded an extraordinary loss of approximately $32
million in connection with the early retirement of a total of
$192.2 million principal payment amount of notes and debentures.
The aggregate purchase price (including costs to extinguish the
debt) of such indebtedness was $223.8 million, financed
principally through newly issued debt and preferred stock. The
Recapitalization Plan is described in more detail in notes 5, 6,
8, 9, and 10.
4. BUSINESSES ACQUIRED
-------------------
On April 13, 1993, pursuing its operating strategy of acquiring
contiguous bottling territories, the Company acquired all of the
operating assets of Dr Pepper Bottling Company of Galveston, Inc.
for $9 million in cash and $1 million payable over five years
under a non-competition agreement.
On June 15, 1995, the Company acquired Big Red Distributing, Inc.
for $2.5 million in cash.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
5. 1993 BANK CREDIT AGREEMENT
--------------------------
Pursuant to the Recapitalization Plan, on February 18, 1993, the
Company entered into a credit agreement (the "1993 Bank Credit
Agreement") with certain banks providing for (i) a term loan
facility in the aggregate amount of $100 million and (ii) a
revolving line of credit facility in the aggregate amount of $25
million.
On March 22, 1993, as contemplated by the Recapitalization Plan,
the Company borrowed $91.7 million under the term loan facility
of the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement to redeem all of the then
outstanding Senior Exchangeable Preferred Stock of the Company.
The facilities mature December 31, 1999.
The 1993 Bank Credit Agreement contains customary restrictive
covenants and requires the Company, among other things, to
satisfy certain financial ratios and restrict investments,
capital expenditures, additional debt and payments of dividends.
Amounts owed under the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement are the direct
obligations of the Company and are unconditionally guaranteed by
Holdings.
6. SALE/LEASEBACK
--------------
As part of the Recapitalization Plan, on February 18, 1993, the
Company entered into an amendment to the lease agreement entered
into by the Company on June 28, 1989, in connection with the
sale/leaseback of its Irving and Houston, Texas production
facilities. The amendment to the lease agreement modified
certain covenants contained therein, increased rent by $500,000
per annum, and eliminated the consumer price index adjustment to
the rent scheduled to be effected on July 1, 1994. In connection
with the amendment, Donaldson Lufkin & Jenrette Securities
Corporation ("DLJ") obtained the right to sell the note (the
"Landlord Note") held by the lender to the landlord under the
lease agreement.
The Landlord Note was sold on October 19, 1993 at a price of
$17,698,500 (the "Sales Price") plus accrued interest of $95,985.
DLJ received a commission of $176,985 in connection with such
sale (1% of the Sales Price) and reimbursement of $94,472 for
expenses incurred in connection with such sale, both of which
were paid out of the proceeds from such sale. The remaining
proceeds from such sale in excess of the principal amount of the
Landlord Note plus accrued interest ($1,227,043) were paid to the
Company and reflected as a reduction of the loss on
recapitalization of debt.
The present value of the increased rent payments was added to
long term debt on the Company's and Holdings' balance sheets.

8. SENIOR NOTES
------------
As contemplated by the Recapitalization Plan, on February 18,
1993, the Company issued and sold $125,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes. The Senior Notes bear interest
at a rate of 10 1/4% per annum, payable semi-annually on February
15 and August 15 of each year, commencing August 15, 1993. The
Senior Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, at any time on or after February 16, 1998, at
101.708% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest,
if any, if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning
February 16, 1998, and thereafter at 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued interest, if any, until maturity. In the
event of a change in control of the Company or Holdings, the
Company will be obligated to make an offer to purchase all
outstanding Senior Notes at a redemption price of 101% of the
principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
date of repurchase.
During 1994, the Company purchased $8.0 million aggregate
principal amount of its outstanding Senior Notes at an aggregate
purchase price of $8.2 million. The purchase price was funded
from cash on hand. In January 1995 the Company used the
revolving line of credit facility to purchase an additional $5.0
million of its Senior Notes for $5.1 million.
<PAGE>
Under the terms of the indenture governing the Senior Notes,
dividend payments on capital stock are restricted to the sum of
(i) 50% of net income (or in the case of a net loss, 100% of the
net loss) plus (ii) the proceeds from the issuance of capital
stock, warrants or options plus (iii) $7.5 million.
9. DISCOUNT NOTES
--------------
As contemplated by the Recapitalization Plan, on February 18,
1993, Holdings issued and sold $125,000,000 aggregate principal
amount of Discount Notes. The Discount Notes were issued at a
substantial discount from their principal amount. Commencing
February 16, 1998, interest will accrue until maturity on the
Discount Notes at a rate of 11 5/8% per annum. Interest on the
Discount Notes is payable semi-annually on February 15 and August
15 of each year, commencing August 15, 1998. The Discount Notes
are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of Holdings,
on or after February 16, 1998, at amounts decreasing from
104.359% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest,
at February 16, 1998 to 100% of the principal amount
thereof, plus accrued interest, at February 16, 2001, until
maturity. In the event of a change in control of Holdings,
Holdings will be obligated to make an offer to purchase all
outstanding Discount Notes at a redemption price of 101% of the
accreted value thereof on any repurchase date prior to February
16, 1998, or 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued
and unpaid interest to any repurchase date on or after February
16, 1998.
Under the terms of the indenture governing the Discount Notes,
dividend payments on capital stock are restricted to the sum of
(i) 50% of net income (or in the case of a net loss, 100% of the
net loss) plus (ii) the proceeds from the issuance of capital
stock, warrants or options plus (iii) $7.5 million.
10. HOLDINGS PREFERRED STOCK AND WARRANT
------------------------------------
As part of the Recapitalization Plan, Holdings sold, for an
aggregate purchase price of $30 million, 1,200,000 shares of
redeemable senior cumulative exchangeable preferred stock, par
value $.01 per share, of Holdings (the "Preferred Stock") and a
warrant to purchase up to 15% of the common stock of Holdings on
a fully diluted basis. The Company redeemed all of the
outstanding Senior Exchangeable Preferred Stock of the Company,
in accordance with the Recapitalization Plan.
<PAGE>
Each share of Preferred Stock has a liquidation preference of
$25.00 per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Dividends
are payable quarterly at the rate of $2.75 per annum per share.
Dividends on the Preferred Stock are cumulative and, at the
option of Holdings, may be paid through the issuance of
additional shares of Preferred Stock on each dividend payment
date through April 1, 1998. The Preferred Stock is optionally
redeemable, in whole or in part, at $25.00 per share, plus
accrued and unpaid dividends thereon on or after April 1, 1998,
provided that Holdings is also entitled to optionally redeem
Preferred Stock with all or a portion of the proceeds from an
initial offering of Holdings common stock consummated on or
before the third anniversary of the issuance of the Preferred
Stock.
On each of April 1, 2005 and 2006, Holdings is required to redeem
25% of the number of shares of Preferred Stock that is
outstanding as of March 31, 2005, at $25.00 per share. On April
1, 2007, Holdings must redeem the remaining shares of Preferred
Stock then outstanding at $25.00 per share. Shares redeemed by
Holdings prior to the mandatory redemption dates are credited
toward the mandatory redemption requirements on a pro rata basis.
The Preferred Stock is exchangeable, in whole or in part, at the
option of Holdings on any dividend payment date for 11% Junior
Subordinated Exchange Debentures due 2006 of Holdings (the
"Holdings Exchange Debentures"). Each share of Preferred Stock
will be exchanged for $25.00 in principal amount of Holdings
Exchange Debentures in denominations of $1,000 or integral
multiples thereof.
Differences between the carrying value of the Preferred Stock and
redemption price ($25.00 per share) will be recognized through
adjustments in the carrying value prior to the mandatory
redemption dates.
Upon the occurrence of a change in control, at the election of
the holders of the Preferred Stock, Holdings will be required to
purchase for cash all shares of Preferred Stock at $25.25 per
share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the date of
repurchase.
11. HOLDINGS COMMON STOCK
---------------------
On November 1, 1993, pursuant to Holdings' Certificate of
Incorporation, each share of Class B common stock outstanding was
automatically converted to Class A common stock.

13. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES - ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES
-------------------------------------------------------------
(DOLLAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS)
-----------------------------
Under the asset and liability method of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".
(Statement 109), deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to
differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted
tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets
and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income
in the period that includes the enactment date.
Income tax expense attributable to income from continuing
operations was $140 for the year ended December 31, 1994, and
differed from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal
income tax rate of 34 percent to pretax income from continuing
operations as a result of the following:

</TABLE>
<PAGE>
For federal income tax purposes, the predecessor tax basis of
assets and liabilities was retained following the Acquisition.
At December 31, 1994, the Company had net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $84,658 which are available to
offset future federal taxable income, if any, through 2008. At
December 31, 1994, there were approximately $64,973 of net
operating loss carryforwards available to offset future
alternative minimum taxable income for federal income tax
purposes. Net operating losses may not offset more than 90% of
the Company's alternative minimum taxable income.
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December
31, 1994 was $32,112. The net change in the total valuation
allowance for the year ended December 31, 1994 was a decrease of
$5,792. The change was primarily related to a change in net
operating loss carryforwards during 1994.
Income taxes paid for the year ended December 31, 1994 totaled
$105,000.
If the Company undergoes a more-than-50% ownership change within
the meaning of section 382(g) of the Internal Revenue Code, then
the Company will be limited in the use of the pre-ownership
change net operating losses to offset future taxable income. A
similar limitation would apply to any pre-ownership change tax
credits. Also, to the extent that the taxable income of the
Company for any future year exceeds the sum of any net operating
losses arising after the date of the ownership change plus the
amount of the annual limitation on the pre-ownership change net
operating losses, the Company would be required to pay federal
income tax on such excess.
Although a more-than-50% ownership change within the meaning of
section 382(g) of the Internal Revenue Code occurred with respect
to the Company in October of 1988, the Company has determined
that the annual limitation under section 382 of the Code on its
pre-October 1988 net operating losses should be adequate to
permit the full use of those net operating losses against future
taxable income of the Company. Furthermore, although there can
be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service would not take
a different position, the Company believes that a more-than-50%
ownership change within the meaning of section 382(g) of the
Internal Revenue Code has not occurred with respect to the
Company after October 1988.
14. NET INCOME PER COMMON SHARE
---------------------------
The net income per common share is computed by dividing net
income, adjusted for dividends on Holdings' preferred stock and
accretion of preferred stock for the difference between the
carrying value and liquidation preference, by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during each
period.

DR PEPPER BOTTLING HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
September 30, 1995
GENERAL
-------
The Company's primary measurement of unit volume is case sales. Case
sales refers to physical cases of beverages sold, including both
premix products (ready-to-serve beverages which are sold in tanks and
converted to case sales on the basis of four cases per tank) and
postmix products (fountain syrups to which carbonated water must be
added and which are converted to case sales on the basis of one case
per gallon.)
Franchise case sales represent primarily sales of the Company's
branded products to retailers only. Contract case sales are comprised
of sales, primarily of products in cans, to unaffiliated bottling
companies that hold soft drink franchises and to a wholesaler of
private label brand soft drink products. Contract sales may fluctuate
significantly from year to year, and are made at relatively low prices
and gross profit margins (historically representing approximately 16%
of contract sales revenues) due to the competition for such sales, and
are not a primary focus of management in determining the Company's
business strategy. As a result, management believes that changes in
franchise net sales more accurately measure growth than changes in
total net sales.
The primary asset of Holdings is the common stock of the Company.
Holdings conducts no business other than holding the common stock of
the Company. As a result, net sales, cost of sales, operating
expenses and operating profit are the same for the Company and
Holdings.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995
--------------------- -------------------------------------
COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
------------------------------
SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
------------------
Net sales, excluding contract net sales, for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 increased to $95.6 million compared to $85.0
million for the same period in 1994. The increase was due to a 4.8%
increase in franchise case sales, with above average growth of Arizona
Iced Tea (added during 1994) and above average growth in Dr Pepper,
Country Time, Sunkist and Evian. Contract net sales for the three
months ended September 30, 1995 decreased 2.8% from the same period in
1994 due to a decrease in both regular contract sales and private
label contract sales. As a result of the foregoing, net sales for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 increased 11.4% to $101.6
million compared to $91.2 million for the same period in 1994.
<PAGE>
Cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 1995 increased
to $67.5 million compared to $60.0 million for the same period in
1994. The increase was due primarily to an increase in franchise case
sales as well as increases in the prices paid by the Company for
certain raw materials, primarily concentrate, cans, and plastic
bottles. These increased costs were partially offset by reduced cost
of sweetener. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 increased to 66.4% from 65.8%
for the same period in 1994.
Marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 1995 were
$2.5 million, compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 1994.
Marketing expenses represented approximately 2% of net sales in each
period.
Administrative and general expenses for the three months ended
September 30, 1995 increased to $18.3 million compared to $16.9
million for the same period in 1994. The increase was due primarily
to an increase of $.8 million in labor and employee benefit expenses,
an increase of $.1 million in auto insurance, an increase of $.1
million in full service commissions, an increase of $.1 million in
breakage and shrinkage, an increase of $.1 million in pallet expense
and an increase of $.2 million in other expenses. Depreciation
expense for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was $1.5
million, an increase of $.1 million from the same period in 1994.
Amortization of intangible assets for the three months ended September
30, 1995 increased to $1.4 million, compared to $1.3 million for the
same period in 1994.
As a result of the above factors, operating profit for the three
months ended September 30, 1995 increased to $10.4 million, or 10.3%
of net sales, compared to $9.7 million, or 10.6% of net sales, for the
same period in 1994.
Interest expense for the Company for the three months ended September
30, 1995 decreased to $5.2 million from $5.6 million for the same
period in 1994 due to reduction of debt.
Amortization of the Company's deferred debt issuance costs for the
three months ended September 30, 1995 was $.3 million, unchanged from
the same period in 1994.
As a result of the above factors, the Company's income before
provision for income taxes for the three months ended September 30,
1995 was $5.1 million, compared to income of $3.9 million for the same
period in 1994. The provision for income taxes increased to $64,000
from $35,000 for the same period in 1994. Net income of the Company
for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was $5.0 million
compared to net income of $3.9 million for the same period in 1994.
Interest expense (including bond accretion on the Discount Notes) for
Holdings for the three months ended September 30, 1995 was $7.8
million, compared to $7.9 million for the same period in 1994.
Holdings' amortization of deferred debt issuance costs for the three
months ended September 30, 1995 was $.4 million, unchanged from the
same period in 1994.
<PAGE>
As a result of the above factors, Holdings generated a net income
after provision for income taxes of $2.3 million for the three months
ended September 30, 1995 compared to an income of $1.4 million for the
same period in 1994.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995

SEPTEMBER 30, 1994
------------------
Net sales, excluding contract net sales, for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 increased to $262.2 million compared to $233.3
million for the same period in 1994. The increase was due to a 5.0%
increase in franchise case sales, with above average growth of Arizona
Iced Tea (added during 1994) and above average growth of Dr Pepper,
Country Time, Sunkist and Evian. Contract net sales for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 decreased 9.0% from the same period in
1994 due to a decrease in both regular contract sales and private
label contract sales. As a result of the foregoing, net sales for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased 10.8% to $279.2 million
compared to $252.0 million for the same period in 1994.
Cost of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased
to $180.8 million compared to $161.2 million for the same period in
1994. The increase was due primarily to an increase in franchise case
sales as well as increases in the prices paid by the Company for
certain raw materials, primarily concentrate, cans, and plastic
bottles. These increased costs were partially offset by reduced cost
of sweetener. As a percentage of net sales, cost of sales for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 increased to 64.7% from 64.0% for
the same period in 1994.
Marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 were
$6.6 million, compared to $5.4 million for the same period in 1994.
Marketing expenses represented approximately 2% of net sales in each
period.
Administrative and general expenses for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 increased to $51.4 million compared to $48.0
million for the same period in 1994. The increase was due primarily
to an increase of $1.5 million in labor and employee benefit expenses,
an increase of $.2 million in fleet expenses under a full service
lease arrangement, an increase of $.2 million in auto insurance, an
increase of $.3 million in full service commissions, an increase of
$.3 million in breakage and shrinkage, an increase of $.2 million in
pallet expense, an increase of $.1 million in materials and supplies,
an increase of $.3 million in other expenses and a reduction of $.3
million in miscellaneous credits. Depreciation expense for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 was $4.4 million, an increase of $.2
million from the same period in 1994. Amortization of intangible
assets for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $4.0 million,
an increase of $.1 million from the same period in 1994.
As a result of the above factors, operating profit for the nine months
ended September 30, 1995 increased to $32.0 million, or 11.5% of net
sales, compared to $29.2 million, or 11.6% of net sales, for the same
period in 1994.
<PAGE>
Interest expense for the Company for the nine months ended September
30, 1995 decreased to $15.8 million from $16.7 million for the same
period in 1994 due to reduction of debt.
Amortization of the Company's deferred debt issuance costs for the
nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $1.0 million, unchanged from
the same period in 1994.
As a result of the above factors, the Company's income before
provision for income taxes for the nine months ended September 30,
1995 was $15.6 million, compared to income of $11.7 million for the
same period in 1994. The provision for income taxes increased to $.2
million from $.1 million for the same period in 1994. Net income of
the Company for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $15.4
million compared to net income of $11.6 million for the same period in
1994.
Interest expense (including bond accretion on the Discount Notes) for
Holdings for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 was $23.6
million, a decrease of $.1 million from the same period in 1994.
Holdings' amortization of deferred debt issuance costs for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 was $1.3 million, unchanged from the
same period in 1994.
As a result of the above factors, Holdings generated a net income $7.4
million after provision of income taxes for the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 compared to an income of $4.4 million for the same
period in 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
Holdings conducts business through the Company and has no material
operations of its own. The primary asset of Holdings is the common
stock of the Company. Accordingly, Holdings is dependent on the cash
flow of the Company to meet its obligations. Holdings has no material
obligations other than those under the Discount Notes, the Preferred
Stock and any exchange debentures of Holdings into which such stock
becomes exchangeable, and certain contingent obligations under
Holdings' guarantee of the Company's obligations under the 1993 Bank
Credit Agreement. Holdings, though, is not expected to have any
material need for cash until interest on the Discount Notes becomes
payable in cash beginning August 15, 1998. The Discount Notes will
mature in 2003. The 1993 Bank Credit Agreement and the Senior Notes
indenture impose significant restrictions on the payment of dividends
and the making of loans by the Company to Holdings. However, the
Senior Notes indenture allows the Company to pay dividends to Holdings
in accordance with a specified formula if, after giving effect
thereto, no event of default, or an event that with the passage of
time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute an event of
default under the Senior Notes indenture shall have occurred and be
continuing. In addition, the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement allows the
Company to pay dividends to Holdings in an amount necessary to make
cash interest payments on the Discount Notes, provided that no event
of default exists or would be created under the 1993 Bank Credit
Agreement.
<PAGE>
The Company remains highly leveraged following the consummation of the
transactions contemplated by the Recapitalization Plan. The Company's
principal use of funds in the future will be the payment of principal
and interest under the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement and the Senior
Notes. As of September 30, 1995, approximately $57.7 million was
outstanding under the term loan facility of the 1993 Bank Credit
Agreement. The Company will be required to repay the principal under
such term loan facility as follows: $3.4 million during the last
three months of 1995, $15.5 million in 1996, $17.2 million in each of
1997 and 1998 and $4.3 million in 1999, subject to reduction for
mandatory and optional prepayments. In addition, the Company will be
required to further retire the principal amount outstanding under the
1993 Bank Credit Agreement with Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the
1993 Bank Credit Agreement). It is expected that the Company's
primary sources of financing for its future business activities will
be funds from operations, together with additional borrowings under
the revolving line of credit facility of the 1993 Bank Credit
Agreement. Such revolving line of credit facility provides for
revolving loans in an aggregate amount of up to $25 million with a $5
million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. The revolving
line of credit facility of the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement will mature
in 1999. During 1994, the Company purchased $8.0 million aggregate
principal amount of its outstanding Senior Notes at an aggregate
purchase price of $8.1 million. The purchase price was funded from
cash on hand. In January 1995 the company used its revolving line of
credit to purchase an additional $5.0 million of its Senior Notes for
$5.1 million.
Because the obligations under the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement bear
interest at floating rates, the Company will be sensitive to changes
in prevailing interest rates. As required by the 1993 Bank Credit
Agreement, the Company entered into interest rate protection
arrangements, expiring June 28, 1996, in an aggregate notional amount
equal to $45 million, subject to reduction by $2 million at the end of
each quarter starting with the quarter ending June 30, 1994.
The Company had negative working capital of $3.5 million at September
30, 1995 compared to negative working capital of $9.8 million at
December 31, 1994.
Based on the Company's anticipated operating results, management
believes that the Company's future operating activities will generate
sufficient cash flows to repay borrowings under the term loan facility
of the 1993 Bank Credit Agreement as they become due and payable.
However, based on such anticipated operating results, management does
not expect that the Company's future operating activities will
generate sufficient cash flows to repay the Senior Notes and the
Discount Notes at their respective maturities. Accordingly, the
Company and Holdings expect that they will be required to refinance
all or substantially all of the Senior Notes and the Discount Notes at
their respective maturities or sell equity or assets to fund the
repayment of all or substantially all of the Senior Notes and the
Discount Notes at their respective maturities, or effect a combination
of the foregoing. While the Company and Holdings believe that they
will be able to refinance the Senior Notes and the Discount Notes at
or prior to their respective maturities, or raise sufficient funds
through equity or asset sales to repay such indebtedness, or effect a
combination of the foregoing, there can be no assurance that such will
be the case.

The 1993 Bank Credit Agreement contains numerous financial and
operating covenants and prohibitions that impose limitations on the
liquidity of the Company, including requirements that the Company
satisfy certain financial ratios and maintain certain specified levels
of net worth, and limitations on the incurrence of additional
indebtedness. The indentures governing the Senior Notes and the
Discount Notes also contain covenants that impose limitations on the
liquidity of the Company and Holdings, including a limitation on the
incurrence of additional indebtedness. The ability of the Company and
Holdings to meet their debt service requirements and to comply with
such covenants will be dependent upon future operating performance and
financial results of the Company, which will be subject to financial,
economic, competitive and other factors affecting the Company, many of
which are beyond its control.
Management anticipates expansion related capital expenditures in 1995
and 1996 to service volume growth at several locations. During 1994
capital expenditures totaled $10.8 million. The Company anticipates
that capital expenditures will total approximately $9.0 million to
$10.0 million for each of the years 1995 through 1997.
