RENT-WAY, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Rent-Way, Inc., (the "Company" or "Rent-Way") is a corporation organized
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Company operates
a chain of rental-purchase stores that rent durable household products
such as home entertainment equipment, furniture, and major appliances and
jewelry to consumers on a weekly or monthly basis. The accompanying
unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and therefore, do not include all
information and notes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments),
which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of the Company have been made. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results for the full year.
Certain amounts in the 1995 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform to the 1996 presentation. As a result of meeting specified
criteria the Company is now filing under regulation S-K, where previously
it had been reporting under regulation S-B.
These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in
conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements included in
its Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended September 30,
1996.
2. EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE:
Primary and fully diluted earnings per common share are computed based on
net income after preferred stock dividend requirements and the redemption
of redeemable preferred stock on a discounted basis. The weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during each period is adjusted to give
effect to stock options and warrants considered to be dilutive common
stock equivalents. Additionally, fully diluted weighted average number of
shares outstanding are adjusted to give effect to convertible debt deemed
to be another potentially dilutive security.
3. ACQUISITIONS:
On July 25, 1996 the Company acquired all the outstanding shares of
Diamond Leasing Corporation ("DLC"); a chain of 11 rental-purchase
stores operating in Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania with annual
revenues of approximately $7.0 million in exchange for consideration
consisting of 20,358 (unregistered shares subject to the provisions of
Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Act) shares of the Company's
common stock and $4,102,296 in cash. Pursuant to the terms of the
acquisition, $325,000 of the purchase price was placed in escrow subject
to the terms of the escrow agreement. The escrow agreement provides that
$175,000 will be held pending completion of a financial audit of DLC and
$150,000 will be held for a three year period from the date of closing.
The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. DLC's assets and liabilities were recorded at their
estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of
rental merchandise and certain liabilities, and the final purchase price
will be finalized upon the completion of certain additional procedures.
The excess of the acquisition costs over the fair value of the assets
acquired ("goodwill") of $4,440,715 is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over twenty years. The total cost of the net assets
acquired was $4,289,796 ($187,500 in common stock and $4,102,296 in
cash) and consisted of assets of $7,253,619 less liabilities assumed of
$2,363,136 and acquisition costs of $600,687. Assets acquired (at
estimated fair value) other than goodwill consisted principally of
rental merchandise of $1,359,808, property and equipment of $310,850,
non-compete agreements of $300,000 and deferred tax assets of $744,808.
Liabilities assumed (at estimated fair value) consisted principally of
trade accounts payable of $582,693 and bank debt of $1,446,238. The
Statement of Income for the three months ended December 31, 1996
includes the operations of DLC for the entire period.

3. ACQUISITIONS, Continued
During fiscal year 1996, the Company also purchased from 5 separate
entities the rental merchandise and contracts of 21 stores in Maryland,
New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the District of Columbia with
combined annual revenues of approximately $4.2 million. The Company paid
cash in exchange for such assets and each acquisition was recorded using
the purchase method of accounting. The acquired assets were recorded at
their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the
purchase price over the fair value of the assets acquired ("goodwill") of
$3,041,984 is being amortized on a straight line basis over twenty years.
The total cost of the net assets acquired was $3,763,250 and consisted of
assets of $3,906,984 less liabilities assumed of $44,814 and acquisition
costs of $98,920. The Statement of Income for the three months ended
December 31, 1996 includes the operating results for these stores for the
entire period.
On July 21, 1995, the Company acquired McKenzie Leasing Corporation
("MLC"), a privately owned 45 store rental-purchase chain with annual
revenues of approximately $22.0 million. The Company acquired all of the
common stock of MLC in exchange for 581,688 (unregistered shares subject
to the provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Act and a
shareholder agreement) shares of the Company's common stock, a stock
option to purchase 115,812 shares of the Company's common stock at $9.28
per share and $2,750,000 of redeemable preferred stock. The 115,812 stock
options are 100% exercisable and expire five years from the date of
grant. Of the common stock issued, 356,688 shares were delivered to the
former shareholders of MLC and 225,000 were placed in escrow. In October
1996, 65,657 of the escrowed shares were returned to the Company and
159,343 were released to the former MLC shareholders. The allocation of
the shares released from escrow was based on the daily average market
price of $13.08 per share for the twenty trading days preceding October
1, 1996. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. MLC's assets and liabilities were recorded at their
estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of the
acquisition cost over the fair value of the net liabilities assumed
("goodwill") of $11,113,233 is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over twenty years. The total cost of the net assets acquired was
$6,469,293 ($3,684,024 in common stock and $2,750,000 in redeemable
preferred stock and $35,269 in cash) and consisted of assets of
$16,670,501 less liabilities assumed of $8,726,921 and acquisition
expenses of $1,474,287. The estimate of the total cost of the acquisition
may be adjusted based on the resolution of certain contingencies.
4. CONTINGENCIES:
The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary
course of its business that have not been finally adjudicated. Certain
of these cases have resulted in contingent liabilities ranging from
$500,000 to $2,530,000. The majority of such claims are, in the opinion
of management, covered by insurance policies and therefore should not
have a material effect on the results of operations or financial
position of the Company.
Additional claims exist in the range of $765,475 to $3,390,000 for
which management believes it has meritorious defenses but for which the
likelihood of an unfavorable outcome is currently not determinable. In
management's opinion, each of these claims will either be indemnified
by the former shareholders of MLC or covered by insurance policies and
therefore will not have a material effect on the results of operations
or financial condition of the Company.

5. DEBT:
On November 22, 1996, the Company entered into a new collateralized
revolving credit facility (the "new facility") with a syndicate of
banks led by National City Bank of Pennsylvania, providing for loans or
letters of credit up to $40.0 million. The syndicate is composed of
four banks, with National City Bank of Pennsylvania, LaSalle National
Bank, and Harris Trust and Savings Bank committed for an equal ratable
share of 27.25%, of the loans made under the new facility and Heller
Financial, Inc. committed for an 18.25% ratable share. The new facility
replaces the Company's prior $15.0 million Secured Credit Agreement
with First Source Financial LLP. Of the $40.0 million available under
the new facility, approximately $7.0 million was used to refinance
existing senior indebtedness with the balance available for store
acquisitions. The new facility expires on November 22, 1999.
Under the new facility the Company may borrow funds at either the
prime-rate plus 0.5% or the euro-rate plus 2.75%. Borrowings under the
euro-rate option require the Company to select a fixed interest period
during which the euro-rate is applicable with the borrowed amount not
to be repaid prior to the last day of the selected interest period. In
addition, borrowing tranche's under the euro-rate option must be in
integral multiples of $250,000 and not less than $1,000,000 in total.
Commitment fees associated with the new facility are equal to 0.25% per
annum on each banks' committed amount.
The new credit facility requires the Company to meet certain financial
covenants and ratios including maximum leverage, minimum interest
coverage and minimum tangible net worth ratios. In addition, the
Company must meet requirements regarding monthly, quarterly and annual
financial reporting. The new facility also contains covenants which
restrict the actions of the Company with respect to the payment of
dividends, acquisitions, mergers, disposition of assets or
subsidiaries, issuance of capital stock and capital expenditures. The
Company may at any time repay outstanding borrowings, in whole or part,
without premium or penalty, except with respect to restrictions
identified above in connection with the selection of the euro-rate
interest option. As of December 31, 1996 the Company was in compliance
with the covenants contained in the new facility.
As a result of the refinancing the Company incurred an extraordinary
loss, net of tax benefit, of $269,017. The extraordinary loss was
composed of a $124,590 ($74,754 net of tax benefit) prepayment penalty
for early retirement of debt and a $323,772 ($194,263 net of tax
benefit) write-off of deferred financing costs associated with the
refinanced debt.
6. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK:
On November 26, 1996, the Company redeemed the remaining shares of its
Series A Redeemable Preferred Stock issued in connection with the
acquisition of MLC. At the time of redemption there were 11,207
outstanding shares with a face amount of $100 per share. These shares
were redeemed at a twenty-five percent discount for an aggregate
purchase price of $840,525.
7. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:
On January 2, 1997, the Company signed a Stock Purchase Agreement and
acquired Bill Coleman T.V., Inc., a privately-owned 15-store
rental-purchase chain in Michigan. The Company paid approximately $6.0
million in cash, and an option to purchase 25,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at an exercise price of $8.875, with $350,000
placed in an escrow account as a source of payment for seller's
breaches of representations and warranties and final purchase price
adjustments. The acquisition considerably strengthens the Company's
penetration in Michigan from seven to twenty-two stores, and is in line
with the Company's strategy to cluster stores in selected markets.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL
During the three month period ended December 31, 1996, the Company generated
record revenues, operating income and income before the effect of an
extraordinary item. The Company's total revenues increased by 32.6% compared to
the same three month period last year. Operating income and income before the
effect of an extraordinary item increased by 42.5% and 75.8%, respectively, when
compared to the same three month period last year. The increase in revenue,
operating income and net income are primarily due to acquisitions made during
fiscal 1996, improved same store operating profits, including stores acquired
from MLC and a reduction in certain expenses resulting from economies of scale.
During the three months ended December 31, 1996, the Company took steps to
support it's acquisition strategy by obtaining a new collateralized revolving
credit facility. In November 1996, the Company secured a $40.0 million
collateralized revolving credit facility from a syndicate of banks led by
National city Bank of Pennsylvania. Of the total facility, approximately $7.0
million was used to refinance existing senior debt with the remainder of such
facility available for future store acquisitions. As a result of the
refinancing, the Company incurred an extraordinary loss, net of tax benefit, of
$269,017. The extraordinary item is composed of a pre-payment penalty resulting
from the early extinguishment of debt and the write-off of deferred finance
costs associated with the refinanced debt. Also in connection with the
refinancing, the Company redeemed the remainder of its Series A Redeemable
Preferred Stock. The Company redeemed the preferred stock at a 25% discount to
face value resulting in a gain of $280,175. As a result of these adjustments,
earnings applicable to common shares increased 95.4% to $960,549 from $491,502
compared to the same period last year.
On January 2, 1997, the Company signed a Stock Purchase Agreement and acquired
Bill Coleman T.V., Inc., a privately-owned 15-store rental-purchase chain in
Michigan. The Company paid approximately $6.0 million in cash and an option to
purchase 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of
$8.875, with $350,000 placed in an escrow account as a source of payment for
seller's breaches of representations and warranties and final purchase price
adjustments. The acquisition considerably strengthens the Company's penetration
in Michigan from seven to twenty-two stores, and is in line with the Company's
strategy to cluster stores in selected markets.
Management is actively seeking merger and acquisition candidates with financial
and geographic profiles consistent with the Company's growth objectives.

COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1996 AND 1995
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, total revenues increased by $3.9 million (32.6%) to $15.7
million from $11.8 million. The increase was principally due to the inclusion
of the results for the stores acquired during fiscal 1996. The stores acquired
in 1996 accounted for $3.3 million (84.6%) of the increase while the Company's
same stores accounted for $0.6 million (15.4%) of the increase. Other revenue
increased by $0.4 million (21.2%) to $2.0 million from $1.6 million principally
due to stores acquired in 1996.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, total costs and operating expenses increased to $13.5
million from $10.3 million primarily as a result of the costs and operating
expenses associated with stores acquired in 1996, but decreased to 86.4% from
87.3% of total revenues. This decrease of 0.9% resulted primarily from a 2.0%
decrease in depreciation and amortization as a

percentage of total revenues, a 0.1% decrease in occupancy as a percentage of
total revenues and a 2.0% decrease in other operating expenses as a percentage
of total revenues. Depreciation expense related to rental merchandise increased
by $0.6 million to $3.7 million from $3.1 million, but decreased by 2.5% as a
percentage of total revenues primarily due to increases in weekly rental rates,
lower purchase costs of rental merchandise due to increasing volume, and
improvements in the realization of potential collectible rental revenue.
Amortization of goodwill increased by $0.1 million primarily because of the
increase in goodwill related to stores acquired in 1996. Salaries and wages
increased by $1.5 million to $4.4 million from $2.9 million principally due to
the addition of twenty-six new locations, an increase in same store payroll, up
grades in the regional manager position, and an overall strengthening of
corporate personnel. The twenty-six locations from recent acquisitions produced
additional payroll cost of approximately $0.9 million for the three month
period. Same store payroll increased $0.3 million as compared to the same
quarter last year. The upgrade in the regional manager position and the
strengthening of corporate personnel were responsible for an increase during
the three month period of approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million,
respectively. Salaries and wages were 27.9% and 24.8% of total revenues for
the three months ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company,
in anticipation of future growth, has strengthened store and regional personnel
by upgrading with managers who have extensive multi-unit experience. In
addition to this upgrade, the increase in salaries and wages in relation to
total revenues was primarily due to the increase in staffing levels in the
McKenzie stores, the twenty-six stores acquired this year having a lower
average revenue base than existing Rent-Way stores, and a fewer number of
stores per regional manager added from current year acquisitions. Advertising
expense increased $0.2 million or 0.1% as a percentage of total revenues to
$0.8 million from $0.6 million principally due to the addition of the stores
acquired in 1996. Occupancy expense increased $0.2 million to $1.0 million from
$0.8 million principally due to the addition of the stores acquired in 1996,
but decreased to 6.6% from 6.7% of total revenues. Other operating expenses
increased $0.5 million to $3.0 million from $2.5 million principally due to the
addition of the stores acquired in 1996, but decreased to 19.2% from 21.2% of
total revenues. This 2.0% decrease occurred because of the Company's ability to
allocate corporate costs and certain overhead costs over a greater number of
stores and increased revenues.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, operating income increased by $0.6 million (42.5%) to $2.1
million from $1.5 million , and increased to 13.6% from 12.7% of total
revenues. The improvement in operating income was principally due to the
stores acquired in 1996 and the factors discussed above.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
1995, interest expense decreased by $0.1 million to $0.4 million from $0.5
million. In addition, interest expense decreased to 2.4% from 4.4% of total
revenues. This decrease was principally due to the repayment of approximately
$13.2 million of outstanding senior debt with funds from the Company's public
stock offering in March 1996, and lower interest rates associated with the new
collateralized revolving credit facility obtained in November 1996 (See Note 5
to the Financial Statements).
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, income tax expense increased to $0.8 million from $0.5
million because the Company generated greater taxable income. The Company is
accruing income tax expense based on an effective tax rate of 46%, which is
higher than the statutory tax rates, because amortization expense related to
goodwill incurred in connection with its acquisitions is not deductible for
purposes of computing income tax.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, net income increased by $0.2 million (26.0%) to $0.7 million
from $0.5 million. The increase, was due to the factors discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
On November 22, 1996, the Company entered into a new collateralized revolving
credit facility (the "new facility") with a syndicate of banks led by National
City Bank of Pennsylvania, providing for loans or letters of credit up to $40.0
million. The syndicate is comprised of four banks, with National City Bank of
Pennsylvania, LaSalle National Bank, and Harris Trust and Savings Bank
committed for an equal ratable share of 27.25%, and Heller Financial, Inc.
committed for an 18.25% ratable share. This agreement replaces the existing
$15.0 million Secured Credit Agreement with First Source Financial LLP. Of the
$40.0 million, approximately $7.0 million was used to refinance existing senior
indebtedness with the balance available for store acquisitions. The agreement
expires on November 22, 1999. As of December 31, 1996, the Company had
approximately $10.0 million of availability under its working capital loan
commitment.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, (Continued)
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES, Continued
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, the Company's net cash used in operating activities
increased to $2.9 million from $1.4 million. This increase was principally due
to a $1.2 million increase in rental merchandise purchases, a $0.5 million
increase in prepaid assets and a $0.4 million increase in current liabilities,
offset by increases in non-cash amortization and depreciation. The increase in
depreciation, amortization, and rental merchandise purchases resulted primarily
from the stores acquired in 1996.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, the Company's net cash used in investing activities remained
stable at $0.8 million.
For the three months ended December 31, 1996 compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1995, the Company's net cash provided by financing activities
increased to $3.7 million from $1.4 million. The increase in net cash provided
by financing activities was principally due to increased borrowings on the
Company's credit facilities.
INFLATION
During the three months ended December 31, 1996, the cost of rental
merchandise, lease rental expense and salaries and wages have increased
modestly. These increases have not had a significant effect on the results of
operations because the Company has been able to charge commensurably higher
rental for its merchandise. This trend is expected to continue in the
foreseeable future.
OTHER MATTERS
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123 -
"Accounting for Stock-based Compensation" effective for transactions entered
into after December 15, 1995. The Company intends on adopting this Standard's
disclosure-only provisions in fiscal 1996. Management does not believe the
adoption of this standard will have a significant impact on the financial
statements of the Company.
