HOST INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   The  accompanying  condensed  consolidated  financial  statements  of  Host
     International,  Inc.  (the  "Company",  a wholly owned  subsidiary  of Host
     Marriott  Services  Corporation) and its  subsidiaries,  have been prepared
     without audit.  The Company manages travel plazas on six tollroads for Host
     Marriott  Tollroads,  Inc.  (a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of Host  Marriott
     Services Corporation) and receives management fees for such services.  Base
     management fees are determined as a percentage of revenues, with additional
     incentive  management  fees  determined as a percentage  of available  cash
     flow.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
     statements  presented in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
     principles  have been  condensed  or  omitted.  The  Company  believes  the
     disclosures  made  are  adequate  to make  the  information  presented  not
     misleading. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements should
     be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
     thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
     year ended January 3, 1997.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein
     have the meanings specified in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     In the  opinion  of  the  Company,  the  accompanying  unaudited  condensed
     consolidated  financial  statements  reflect all adjustments (which include
     only  normal  recurring   adjustments)  necessary  to  present  fairly  the
     consolidated  financial position of the Company as of June 20, 1997 and the
     results of  operations  and cash flows for the interim  periods  presented.
     Interim results are not necessarily  indicative of fiscal year  performance
     because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations.

     The consolidated  financial  statements include the accounts of the Company
     and its subsidiaries and controlled affiliates.  Investments in 50% or less
     owned  affiliates  over  which the  Company  has the  ability  to  exercise
     significant  influence  are  accounted  for using the  equity  method.  All
     material intercompany transactions and balances between the Company and its
     subsidiaries have been eliminated.  Certain  reclassifications were made to
     the prior year financial statements to conform to the 1997 presentation.

2.   The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 129,  "Disclosure of Information 
     about Capital  Structure," SFAS No. 130, "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income"
     and SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
     Information,"  no later than its fiscal  year ending  January 2, 1998.  The
     adoption of SFAS No. 129 will not have a material  effect on the  Company's
     consolidated financial statements.  The Company is currently evaluating the
     financial  statement  impact of adopting SFAS No. 130 and SFAS No.131.  The
     Company adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting
     for Stock-Based Compensation," during 1996.

3.   Management  approved a formal  restructuring  plan in October  1995 and the
     Company recorded a pretax restructuring charge to earnings of $14.5 million
     in the  fourth  quarter of 1995.  The  restructuring  charge was  primarily
     comprised of  involuntary  employee  termination  benefits  (related to its
     realignment of operational responsibilities) and lease cancellation penalty
     fees and related costs  resulting  from the Company's  plan to exit certain
     activities in its entertainment venues.

     The employee  termination  benefits  included in the  restructuring  charge
     reflect the immediate  elimination of approximately 100 corporate and field
     operations  positions and the elimination of  approximately  200 additional
     field operations  positions,  all of which were specifically  identified in
     the restructuring  plan. Certain initiatives of the restructuring plan were
     scheduled to be implemented  throughout the duration of the plan, resulting
     in an  extended  period  over  which the 200  additional  field  operations
     positions  would be eliminated.  Although the Company  expected to complete
     its plan to  involuntarily  terminate  employees  by the end of the  second
     quarter of 1997, the delay in implementation of system  initiatives  caused
     the  terminations to extend beyond the second quarter.  Severance  payments
     are expected to continue beyond the end of the third quarter of 1997 due to
     the provisions of the program that allow for extended  severance  payments.
     As of the end of the second quarter of 1997, the Company had terminated 207
     positions in connection with the restructuring plan.

     Also as a part of the restructuring,  the Company committed to exit certain
     operating   units  in   entertainment   venues  which  were  deemed  to  be
     inconsistent with the Company's core operating strategies. As of the end of
     the first  quarter  of 1997,  this  portion of the  restructuring  plan was
     essentially complete.

     The  following  table  sets forth the  restructuring  reserve  and  related
     activity as of June 20, 1997:

4.   Cash and cash equivalents  generally include all highly liquid  investments
     with a  maturity  of three  months or less at the date of  purchase.  These
     investments include money market assets and commercial paper used as a part
     of the Company's cash management activities.

5.   SUPPLEMENTAL GUARANTOR AND NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARY INFORMATION
     Certain  subsidiaries  of the  Company  guarantee  the  Senior  Notes.  The
     separate financial  statements of each guaranteeing  subsidiary  (together,
     the  "Guarantor  Subsidiaries")  are not  presented  because the  Company's
     management  has concluded that such separate  financial  statements are not
     material to investors.  The guarantee of each Guarantor  Subsidiary is full
     and unconditional and joint and several and each Guarantor  Subsidiary is a
     wholly  owned   subsidiary  of  the  Company.   The  Company's   controlled
     affiliates, in which the Company owns between 50% and 90% interest, are not
     guarantors   of   the   Senior   Notes   (together,    the   "Non-Guarantor
     Subsidiaries").  The ability of the Company's Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries to
     pay  dividends to the Company is  restricted  to the extent of the minority
     interests'  share  in the  affiliates'  combined  net  assets.  There is no
     subsidiary  of  the  Company  the  capital  stock  of  which   comprises  a
     substantial  portion  of the  collateral  for the Senior  Notes  within the
     meaning  of  Rule  3-10  of  Regulation   S-X.  The   following   condensed
     consolidating  financial  information  sets forth the  combined  results of
     operations,  financial  position,  and cash flows of the parent,  Guarantor
     Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Certain reclassifications were
     made  to  conform  all of the  supplemental  information  to the  financial
     presentation  on  a  consolidated  basis.  The  principal  eliminating  and
     adjusting  entries  reflect (i) Company debt and related  interest  charges
     reflected in the financial  statements of the Company (as obligor) and also
     the Guarantor Subsidiaries, (as guarantors), (ii) investments, advances and
     equity in  earnings  in  subsidiaries,  and (iii) the  minority  interests'
     equity interests in the partnership distributions and the minority interest
     liabilities.

HOST INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company manages travel plaza concessions contracts on six tollroads for Host
Marriott  Tollroads,  Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Host Marriott  Services
Corporation).  Base  management fees related to these travel plaza contracts are
based on a percentage of total revenues  earned during the period by each of the
travel  plazas,  with  additional  incentive  management  fees  determined  as a
percentage of available cash flow.

REVENUES.  Revenues,  including  management  fee  income,  for the twelve  weeks
("quarter")  ended June 20, 1997  increased by $1.5 million,  or 0.6%, to $259.9
million  compared with revenues of $258.4 million in the second quarter of 1996.
Revenues for the  twenty-four  weeks ("first  half") ended June 20, 1997 totaled
$498.7 million, an increase of $4.1 million, or 0.8%, from $494.6 million during
the same period in 1996.  These  increases  were driven by solid  performance in
comparable domestic airport concessions operations,  minor increases in customer
traffic on  tollroads  and the  opening of the  Ontario  Mills food court in the
fourth quarter of 1996.

AIRPORTS
Airport concession revenues were up $1.2 million, or 0.6%, to $206.8 million for
the second  quarter of 1997 compared with $205.6  million for the same period in
1996. Domestic airport concession revenues totaled $191.9 million for the second
quarter  of 1997  compared  to  $192.3  million  for the  same  period  in 1996.
International airport revenues were $14.9 million for the second quarter of 1997
compared with $13.3 million for the second  quarter of last year, an increase of
$1.6 million, or 12.0%.  International airport revenues were negatively impacted
by  exchange  rate  fluctuations  in the  second  quarter  of  1997.  Comparable
contracts,  which  comprise  over 90% of total  airport  revenues,  exclude  the
negative impact of contracts with significant  changes in scope of operation and
contracts undergoing significant construction of new facilities, as well as, the
positive impact of new contracts.  Revenue growth at comparable domestic airport
locations grew a solid 6.0% and can be attributed to strong  fundamentals in the
airport  business,  with  passenger  enplanements  at comparable  airports up an
estimated  4.7% over last  year's  second  quarter.  In February  1997,  the FAA
forecast has projected annual passenger  enplanement  growth of 4.1% through the
year 2008.  Revenue per enplaned  passenger  ("RPE") grew 1.2% at the  Company's
comparable  domestic airport locations in the second quarter of 1997. The growth
in RPE  can be  attributed  to the  continued  addition  of  branded  locations,
moderate increases in menu prices,  various real estate maximization efforts and
benefits from other operational  initiatives.  RPE growth was constrained in the
second quarter of 1997 by construction projects (not considered  significant) in
several  comparable  domestic  airport  locations,   including  Cleveland,   San
Francisco and Phoenix, where the Company is introducing branded concepts.

Growth in revenues for the first half of 1997 was also due to strong performance
in the airport  concessions  business line with airport revenues totaling $404.7
million during the period,  an increase of $3.7 million,  or 0.9%, from the same
period in 1996. Domestic airport concessions  revenues increased by $1.1 million
to $376.8  million for the first half of 1997 compared  with $375.7  million for
the first half of 1996. International airport revenues totaled $27.9 million and
$25.3 million for the first half of 1997 and 1996, respectively.  Revenue growth
at comparable  domestic airport locations grew 6.4%.  Increased  revenues during
the first half of 1997 reflect growth in passenger  enplanements of 5.0% and RPE
of 1.2%.  Airport revenue growth in the first half of 1997 was achieved  despite
the aforementioned  construction  projects; the benefit of severe winter weather
in 1996 which caused air traffic  delays;  and the calendar shift (first quarter
1997 began January 4, after the holiday travel season,  while first quarter 1996
began December 30, 1995).

TRAVEL PLAZAS
Travel  plaza  concession  revenues  for the  second  quarter of 1997 were $36.9
million,  an increase of $0.7  million or 1.9%,  compared to the same  quarter a
year ago.  This growth was the result of minimal  increases in tollroad  traffic
and moderate price increases.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued


Travel  plaza  concession  revenues  for the first half of 1997 and 1996 totaled
$62.9 million and $62.2 million,  respectively, an increase of $0.7 million. The
calendar  shift referred to above  negatively  impacted sales when comparing the
first half of 1997 and 1996.

SHOPPING MALLS AND ENTERTAINMENT
Shopping malls and entertainment  concession  revenues,  primarily consisting of
merchandise, food and beverage sales at food courts in shopping malls, stadiums,
arenas,  and other  tourist  attractions,  decreased by $0.1 million or 0.8%, to
$13.0  million for the second  quarter of 1997,  from $13.1 million for the same
period in 1996.  Shopping malls and  entertainment  concession  revenues totaled
$25.5  million  and  $25.6  million  for  the  first  half  of  1997  and  1996,
respectively, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.4%. The strong performance of the
new mall food court was offset by an expired  contract at a stadium facility and
the Company's  planned exit from certain retail  operations in the business line
that were deemed to be inconsistent with the Company's core strategies.

Subsequent  to the end of the second  quarter of 1997,  the Company  announced a
third mega-mall food court agreement with The Mills Corporation.  This agreement
is for the  development  and  operation  of the food court at a new 1.4  million
square foot mega mall, opening in mid-1999, near Charlotte, North Carolina. This
mall will be similar in size and scope to the first two mall agreements with The
Mills  Corporation at Ontario Mills in Southern  California  (opened in November
1996) and at Grapevine Mills in Dallas,  Texas (scheduled to open in the Fall of
1997).  During the second quarter of 1997, the Company also announced a ten-year
agreement  with Simon  Debartolo  Group,  the  nation's  largest  shopping  mall
developer,  to operate and manage the 6,100  square foot food court and one food
kiosk at the  Independence  Center Mall in Kansas  City,  Missouri  beginning in
early 1998. Independence Center is an existing mall undergoing renovation.

MANAGEMENT FEE INCOME. Travel plaza management fee income for the second quarter
of 1997 was $3.2 million compared with $3.5 million for the same period of 1996.
Travel plaza  management  fee income  decreased $0.2 million to $5.6 million for
the first  half of 1997.  A slight  decrease  in  tollroad  revenues  at managed
locations  accounted  for the decrease in management  fee income,  as management
fees are calculated as a percentage of revenues.

OPERATING  COSTS AND EXPENSES.  The Company's total operating costs and expenses
were $244.2 million for the second quarter of 1997, or 94.0% of total  revenues,
compared with $244.1  million for the second  quarter of 1996, or 94.5% of total
revenues. Operating costs and expenses totaled $479.6 million for the first half
of 1997, or 96.2% of total revenues,  compared with $478.0 million,  or 96.6% of
total  revenues  for the same  period in 1996.  The  improved  operating  profit
margins  quarter-to-quarter  and  year-to-date  of 50 basis  points and 40 basis
points,  respectively,  reflect operating leverage benefits derived from revenue
growth  and an  improvement  in the  cost-of-sales  margin  resulting  from  the
implementation of several operating initiatives.

Cost of sales for the second  quarter of 1997 was $72.9  million,  a decrease of
$2.7 million, or 3.6%, below the second quarter of last year. Cost of sales as a
percentage  of total  revenues  decreased  130 basis  points  during  the second
quarter  of 1997.  Cost of  sales  for the  first  half of 1997  decreased  $3.5
million, or 2.4%, below the first half of 1996. Cost of sales as a percentage of
total  revenues  decreased 100 basis points  during the first half of 1997.  The
most notable cause of these decreases were various cost controlling  initiatives
implemented during the year. These initiatives include the roll out of the Store
Manager concept  intended to move  management  closer to the customer to improve
customer  satisfaction;  the creation of the Store Card  reporting  system where
emphasis  is  placed  on  tracking  and  measuring   store  level   performance;
implementation  of  Labor  Pro  software  which  provides  managers  with  a new
automated labor scheduling report to manage service standards and control labor;
the  renegotiation  of  distributor  agreements  for books and  magazines in the
Company's  airports and travel plazas to improve in-stock  availability and cost
margins;  as well as a program under which brand experts ("Brand Champions") are
assigned to certain of the Company's largest selling branded concepts. The Brand
Champions'  function is to promote  operational  excellence and create operating
efficiencies  across all of the Company's  locations of a particular  brand.  To
date,  the Company has assigned  brand  champions to each of the Burger King, PS
Airpub, Sbarro, Roy Rogers and Starbucks brands.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued



Payroll and benefits  totaled $76.9 million during the second quarter of 1997, a
2.3%, or $1.7 million,  increase  over the second  quarter of 1996.  Payroll and
benefits  as a  percentage  of total  revenues  for the  second  quarter of 1997
increased to 29.6% from the 29.1% reported for the same period in 1996.  Payroll
and benefits  totaled  $151.4 million for the first half of 1997, an increase of
$2.7 million,  or 1.8% when compared to the same period in 1996. The payroll and
benefits margin increased by 30 basis points for the first half of 1997 to 30.4%
as a result of initiatives put in place to increase  revenues and decrease other
cost areas.

Occupancy costs consist of rent,  royalties and  depreciation  and  amortization
expenses.  Occupancy  costs were $57.3  million for the second  quarter of 1997,
down  $0.5  million  or 0.9%  compared  to the  second  quarter  of  1996.  As a
percentage of total revenues,  occupancy costs decreased to 22.0% for the second
quarter  of 1997  compared  to 22.4% for the second  quarter of 1996.  Occupancy
costs for the first  half of 1997 and 1996  totaled  $113.0  million  and $111.5
million,  respectively.  As a  percentage  of total  revenues,  occupancy  costs
increased slightly to 22.7% for the first half of 1997 compared to 22.5% for the
same period in 1996.

Rent expense totaled $41.0 million for the second quarter of 1997, a decrease of
$1.1 million,  or 2.6%,  below the second quarter of 1996.  Rent expense for the
first half of 1997 decreased  $0.5 million,  or 0.6% to $80.9 million from $81.4
million for the same  period in 1996.  Contract  rent  expense  determined  as a
percentage  of  revenues  decreased  during  the first  half of 1997,  offset by
increased rent from equipment rentals.  Increased equipment rent is due to a new
point of sale and back office computer system that the Company is rolling out to
each of its operating units.

Royalties  expense  for the second  quarter of 1997  increased  by 13.0% to $5.2
million from $4.6 million for the second  quarter of last year.  As a percentage
of total revenues, royalties expense increased to 2.0% for the second quarter of
1997 compared to 1.8% for the second quarter of 1996.  Royalties expense totaled
$9.8 million and $8.4 million for the first half of 1997 and 1996, respectively,
an  increase of $1.4  million,  or 16.7%.  Royalties  as a  percentage  of total
revenues  increased  30 basis  points for the first half of 1997 to 2.0%.  These
increases  reflect the Company's  continued  introduction of branded concepts to
its airport concessions operations. Royalties expense as a percentage of branded
sales totaled 6.6% and 6.6% in the second  quarter and first half of 1997,  down
from the 7.0% and 6.8%  reported  for the same  periods  in 1996,  respectively.
These margin decreases are attributable to the addition of branded concepts with
lower-than-average royalty percentages. Branded facilities generate higher sales
per square foot and  contribute  toward  increased  RPE,  which  offset  royalty
payments  required  to operate  the  concepts.  Branded  concepts  in all of the
Company's  venues have grown at a compound  annual growth rate of 12.2% over the
last five fiscal years. No single branded concept  accounts for more than 10% of
total revenues. Branded food and beverage revenues increased 16.4% and 17.8% for
the second quarter and first half of 1997, respectively,  when compared with the
same  periods  in 1996,  the  majority  of which  related  to  branded  sales at
airports.

Branded food and beverage revenues in airports have increased 18.0% and 20.2% in
the second  quarter and first half of 1997,  respectively,  compared to the same
periods in 1996.  These increases can be attributed to large new branded concept
developments in Dulles International Airport (just outside of Washington, D.C.),
San  Diego  International   Airport,  Los  Angeles   International  Airport  and
Hartsfield Atlanta  International  Airport, as well as, development  projects at
Cleveland, San Francisco and Phoenix. Airport branded food and beverage sales in
the  second  quarter  increased  to $55.0  million,  or  26.6% of total  airport
revenues,  compared with $46.6 million,  or 22.7% of total airport revenues,  in
the  second  quarter  of 1996.  Branded  food  and  beverage  sales in  airports
increased to $108.1 million, or 26.7% of total airport revenues during the first
half of 1997,  compared with $89.9 million, or 22.4% of totaled airport revenues
for the same period in 1996.

Depreciation  and  amortization  expense,  excluding  $0.4  million of corporate
depreciation  on property  and  equipment  which is  included as a component  of
general and administrative expenses, was $11.1 million for the second quarter of
1997,   compared  to  $11.1   million,   excluding  $0.4  million  of  corporate
depreciation  on  property  and  equipment,  for the  second  quarter  of  1996.

     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued


corporate  depreciation  on property and  equipment,  was $22.3  million for the
first half of 1997,  an increase of $0.6 million,  or 2.8%,  compared with $21.7
million,  excluding  $0.6  million of  corporate  depreciation  on property  and
equipment,  for the same period in 1996.  These increases in  depreciation  were
largely due to developments at the Ontario Mills Mall food court and Los Angeles
International Airport.

General and administrative expenses were $12.0 million for the second quarter of
1997,  an  increase of $0.2  million,  or 1.7%,  over the $11.8  million for the
second  quarter of 1996.  General  and  administrative  expenses  totaled  $24.5
million and $24.0 million for the first half of 1997 and 1996, respectively,  an
increase of $0.5 million, or 2.1%. These increases are primarily attributable to
higher corporate  depreciation  expense associated with the new headquarters and
financial system,  which was partially offset by a decrease in corporate payroll
and benefits expense.

Other  operating  expenses,   which  includes  utilities,   casualty  insurance,
equipment  maintenance,  trash removal and other  miscellaneous  expenses,  were
$25.1 million for the second  quarter of 1997, a $1.4 million,  or 5.9% increase
from the $23.7 million  reported in the second  quarter of 1996. As a percentage
of total revenues,  other operating  expenses  increased 50 basis points for the
second  quarter  of 1997  when  compared  with the same  period  in 1996.  Other
operating  expenses  increased  0.8% to $48.4 million for the first half of 1997
from  $48.0  million  for the  first  half of  1996.  As a  percentage  of total
revenues,  other operating  expenses remained flat at 9.7% for the first half of
1997 when compared with the same period in 1996.

OPERATING PROFIT. As a result of the changes in revenues and operating costs and
expenses discussed above,  operating profit increased to $15.7 million,  or 6.0%
of revenues,  for the second  quarter of 1997,  from $14.3  million,  or 5.5% of
revenues,  for the second quarter of 1996. Operating profit for airports,  prior
to the allocation of corporate general and  administrative  expenses,  was $21.2
million,  or  10.3% of  airport  revenues,  for the  second  quarter  of 1997 as
compared with $19.9 million, or 9.7% of airport revenues, for the second quarter
of 1996.  Operating profit for the travel plaza business line, excluding general
and administrative expenses, increased $0.5 million to $5.0 million, or 12.5% of
travel plaza  revenues,  for the second  quarter of 1997  compared with 11.3% of
travel plaza  revenues in 1996.  Several  strategic  initiatives,  including the
Store  Manager  concept,  Store Card  concept,  Labor Pro software and the Brand
Champion  program  in  the  Company's  largest  selling  branded  concepts  have
contributed toward the improved margins. Operating profit for shopping malls and
entertainment,  excluding  general and  administrative  expenses,  totaled  $1.5
million and $1.7 million for the second quarter of 1997 and 1996,  respectively.
The shopping mall and  entertainment  operating  profit  margin was 11.5%,  down
slightly  from the  comparable  period  in 1996,  partially  constrained  by the
amortization  of  pre-opening  costs related to the opening of the Ontario Mills
Mall food court.

Operating profit increased to $19.1 million, or 3.8% of revenues,  for the first
half of 1997,  from $16.6 million,  or 3.4% of revenues,  for the same period in
1996.  Operating  profit for  airports,  prior to the  allocation  of  corporate
general  and  administrative  expenses,  was $38.0  million,  or 9.4% of airport
revenues,  for the first half of 1997 as compared with $35.6 million, or 8.9% of
airport  revenues,  for the first half of 1996.  Operating profit for the travel
plaza business line,  excluding general and administrative  expenses,  increased
$0.4 million to $3.5 million,  or 5.1% of travel plaza  revenues,  for the first
half of 1997  compared  with 4.6% of travel plaza  revenues in the first half of
1996.  The  strategic  initiatives  referred to above  contributed  toward these
improved  margins during the first half of 1997.  Operating  profit for shopping
malls and entertainment,  excluding general and administrative expenses, totaled
$2.1 million and $1.9 million for the first half of 1997 and 1996, respectively.
The shopping malls and  entertainment  operating profit margin was 8.2% and 7.4%
in the first half of 1997 and 1996, respectively. The pre-opening costs referred
to above slightly reduced the shopping malls and entertainment  operating profit
margin for the first half of 1997.

INTEREST  EXPENSE.  Interest expense  decreased $0.1 million to $9.2 million for
the second  quarter of 1997,  compared  with the same  period in 1996.  Interest
expense  totaled  $18.4 million and $18.5 million for the first half of 1997 and
1996,  respectively.  The slight decrease in interest  expense  reflects and the
continuing principal reductions on the Company's other long-term debt.

INTEREST INCOME.  Interest income totaled $0.8 million for the second quarter of
1997, a $0.7 million  increase when compared with the $0.1 million  reported for
the same  period in 1996.  Interest  income  for the first half of 1997 and 1996
totaled $1.5 million and $0.4 million,  respectively.  Cash balances  during the
first  quarter  of 1997 were  temporarily  higher due to a  transition  to a new
financial  system at year-end 1996. This  transition  resulted in beginning cash
balances  being higher than the  Company's  normal  seasonal  level.  The second
quarter of 1997 includes $0.4 million of non-recurring  interest income relating
to a recently  negotiated  agreement with an Airport  Authority which reimburses
the  Company  for  the  cost  of  funding  certain  capital  improvements.  Also
contributing  to the increase in interest  income  during the first half of 1997
were slightly higher short-term interest rates and the Company's acceleration of
the  transfer of cash  balances  from local  depository  accounts  to  corporate
interest bearing consolidation accounts during 1997.

INCOME TAXES.  The provision for income taxes for the second quarter of 1997 and
1996 was $2.9 million and $2.1 million,  respectively.  The provision  (benefit)
for income taxes for the first half of 1997 totaled $0.9 million  compared  with
$(0.7) million for the first half of 1996. The Company's  overall  effective tax
rate  declined  in the second  quarter of 1997 to 39.5% from 43.0% in the second
quarter of 1996. This decrease  primarily  reflects a reduction in the estimated
state income tax provision.

NET INCOME  (LOSS).  The  Company's  net  income for the second  quarter of 1997
increased  46.7% to $4.4  million,  compared with net income of $3.0 million for
the second  quarter of 1996.  Net income for the first half of 1997 totaled $1.3
million,  compared with a net loss of $(0.8) million for the first half of 1996.
The  increases  in net  income  for the  second  quarter  and first half of 1997
reflect  improved  operating  performance,  a  substantial  increase in interest
income and the reduction in the Company's effective state income tax rate.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company funds its capital  requirements  with a combination of existing cash
balances,  operating  cash  flow and  debt and  equity  financing.  The  Company
believes  that cash flow  generated  from  ongoing  operations  and current cash
balances are more than adequate to finance ongoing capital expenditures, as well
as, meet debt service requirements. The Company also has the ability to fund its
planned growth  initiatives from existing credit facilities and from the sources
identified above;  however,  should significant growth opportunities arise, such
as  business  combinations  or  contract  acquisitions,   alternative  financing
arrangements will be evaluated and considered.

The Company is required to make semi-annual cash interest payments on the Senior
Notes at a fixed  interest  rate of 9.5%.  The  Company is not  required to make
principal payments on the Senior Notes until maturity except in the event of (i)
certain changes in control or (ii) certain asset sales in which the proceeds are
not invested in other properties  within a specified period of time.  Management
does  not  expect  either  of  these  events  to occur  and  therefore  does not
anticipate  that the  principal  payments on the Senior Notes will be due before
maturity.

The Senior Notes mature in 2005 and are fully and unconditionally  guaranteed on
a  joint  and  several  basis  by  certain  subsidiaries  of  the  Company  (the
"Guarantors").  The Senior  Notes are also  secured  by a pledge of the  capital
stock  of  the  Guarantors.  The  indenture  governing  the  Senior  Notes  (the
"Indenture")  contains covenants that, among other things,  limit the ability of
the Guarantors to incur  additional  indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay
dividends or make other distributions,  repurchase capital stock or subordinated
indebtedness,  create  certain  liens,  enter  into  certain  transactions  with
affiliates,  sell certain assets, issue or sell capital stock of the Guarantors,
and enter into certain  mergers and  consolidations.  The First National Bank of
Chicago,  as agent for a group of  participating  lenders,  has provided  credit
facilities (the  "Facilities") to the Company.  During the first quarter of 1997
the Company negotiated several enhancements to the Facilities.  The enhancements
increased the aggregate principal amount and extended the maturity of the

                                   16

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued


Facilities  from $75.0 million through 2001 to $100.0 million through April 2002
(the  "Total  Commitment").  The Total  Commitment  consists  of (i) a letter of
credit facility in the amount of $25.0 million for the issuance of financial and
non-financial  letters of credit and (ii) a  revolving  credit  facility  in the
amount of $75.0  million  (the  "Revolver  Facility")  for  working  capital and
general corporate purposes other than hostile acquisitions. All borrowings under
the  Facilities  are senior  obligations  of the Company and are secured by Host
Marriott  Services  Corporation's  pledge  of,  and a first  perfected  security
interest  in,  all of the  capital  stock  of the  Company  and  certain  of its
subsidiaries.

The loan  agreements  relating  to the  Facilities  contain  dividend  and stock
retirement  covenants that are  substantially  similar to those set forth in the
Indenture, provided that dividends payable to Host Marriott Services Corporation
are  limited to 25% of the  Company's  consolidated  net  income  and  provided,
further,  that no  dividends  can be declared  by the Company  prior to June 20,
1997.  The loan  agreements  also contain  certain  financial  ratio and capital
expenditure covenants. The enhancements to the Facility during the first quarter
of 1997 eliminated the Revolver  Facility's  annual 30-day repayment  provision.
Any  indebtedness  outstanding  under the  Facilities  may be  declared  due and
payable  upon the  occurrence  of  certain  events  of  default,  including  the
Company's  failure to comply  with the several  covenants  noted  above,  or the
occurrence of certain events of default under the Indenture. As of June 20, 1997
and throughout the twelve weeks and twenty-four weeks ended June 20, 1997, there
was no outstanding  indebtedness under the Revolver Facility and the Company was
in compliance with the covenants described above.

The Company's cash flows from operating  activities are affected by seasonality.
Cash from  operations  generally is the strongest in the summer  months  between
Memorial  Day and Labor Day.  Cash  provided by  operations,  before  changes in
working  capital,  totaled  $25.3 million for the first half of 1997 as compared
with $17.9 million for the same period in 1996.

The primary uses of cash in investing activities consist of capital expenditures
and  acquisitions.  The Company  incurs  capital  expenditures  to build out new
facilities,  expand or  re-concept  existing  facilities,  and to  maintain  the
quality and improve  operations of existing  facilities.  The Company's  capital
expenditures in the first half of 1997 and 1996, totaled $26.2 million and $23.8
million,  respectively.  For the entire fiscal year of 1997, the Company expects
to make capital expenditure  investments of approximately $53.0 million to $58.0
million  in its core  domestic  airport  and  travel  plaza  business  lines and
approximately $15.0 million in growth markets in international airports and food
courts in domestic shopping malls. The timing of actual capital expenditures can
vary from expected  timing due to project  scheduling and delays inherent in the
construction  and  approval  process.  The  Company  expects  to fund these 1997
expenditures with its operating cash flow.

The  Company's  cash used in financing  activities in the first half of 1997 was
$3.3 million,  compared  with cash used in financing  activities of $4.4 million
for the same period in 1996. In connection  with the  Distribution,  the Company
paid Host  Marriott  Corporation  $2.2 million in the second  quarter of 1997 in
partial  settlement  of the  Company's  obligation  to pay for the  exercise  of
nonqualified  stock options and the release of deferred stock  incentive  shares
held by certain former employees of Host Marriott Corporation.

Working  capital is managed  throughout  the year to  effectively  maximize  the
financial  returns to the Company.  If needed,  the Company's  Revolver Facility
provides  funds for  liquidity,  seasonal  borrowing  needs  and  other  general
corporate purposes. In the fourth quarter of 1996, the Company transitioned to a
new financial system,  which included the centralization of the accounts payable
function.  As a result of the transition,  the Company  experienced  temporarily
high balances in cash and cash  equivalents and current  liabilities at year-end
1996.  During the first half of 1997, the Company completed the accounts payable
centralization,  resulting in a reduction of the temporarily  high cash and cash
equivalents and current liabilities balances to seasonal levels.

The  Company's   consolidated   earnings   before   interest   expense,   taxes,
depreciation,  amortization and other non-cash items  ("EBITDA")  increased $2.2
million, or 8.3%, to $28.6 million in the second quarter of 1997. EBITDA totaled
$44.5  million  and  $39.9  million  for  the  first  half  of  1997  and  1996,
respectively,  an increase of $4.6 

                                   17

million,  or 11.5%.  These  increases  in EBITDA  reflect the impact of improved
operating  results in 1997.  The Company  believes that EBITDA is one meaningful
measure  of its  operating  performance  and is used  by  certain  investors  to
estimate  the  Company's  ability  to meet debt  service  requirements  and fund
capital investments.  EBITDA information should not be considered an alternative
to net  income,  operating  profit,  cash  flows from  operations,  or any other
operating or liquidity  performance  measure  recognized  by Generally  Accepted
Accounting  Principles  ("GAAP").  The calculation of EBITDA for the Company may
not be  comparable  to the same  calculation  by  other  companies  because  the
definition of EBITDA varies throughout the industry.

The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income (loss):

IMPAIRMENTS OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Effective  September 9, 1995,  the Company  adopted SFAS No. 121, which requires
that an  impairment  loss be  recognized  when the  carrying  amount of an asset
exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows of the asset. In
adopting SFAS No. 121 (and thereby  changing its method of measuring  long-lived
asset  impairments  from a business-line  basis to an individual  operating-unit
basis), the Company wrote down the assets (primarily leasehold  improvements and
equipment) of 14 individual  operating units to the extent the carrying value of
the assets exceeded the fair value of the assets in 1995. Eleven of the fourteen
units had projected cash flow  deficits,  and,  accordingly  the assets of these
units  were  written  off in their  entirety.  The  remaining  three  units  had
projected  positive  cash flows and the assets were  partially  written  down to
their estimated fair values.

During 1996, 5 of the original 14 impaired units were either  disposed of or the
lease term expired.  As of June 20, 1997, the total cash flow deficit (including
operating cash flows and necessary  capital  expenditures)  from the remaining 9
operating  units was  projected to be  approximately  $14.3  million  during the
remaining  terms of the lease  agreements.  Substantially  all of the  remaining
deficit is attributable to two airport units.


DEFERRED INCOME TAXES

Realization of the net deferred tax assets totaling $80.5 million as of June 20,
1997, is dependent on the Company's  ability to generate  future taxable income.
Management  believes that it is more likely than not that future  taxable income
will be sufficient  to realize the net deferred tax assets  recorded at June 20,
1997.  Management  anticipates  that  increases in taxable  income will arise in
future  periods  primarily as a result of the Company's  growth  strategies  and
reduced operating costs resulting from several strategic initiatives and ongoing
improvements to the Company's business processes. The anticipated improvement in
operating results is expected

<PAGE>

HOST INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
     RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, continued


to increase the taxable income base to a level which would allow  realization of
the existing net deferred tax assets within nine to twelve years.

Future levels of operating  income and other  taxable  gains are dependent  upon
general  economic  and  industry  conditions,  including  airport  and  tollroad
traffic,  inflation,  competition,  demand for development of concepts and other
factors  beyond  the  Company's  control,  and no  assurance  can be given  that
sufficient  taxable  income will be generated  for full  utilization  of the tax
credits and deductible temporary differences giving rise to the net deferred tax
asset.  Management has considered  these factors in reaching its conclusion that
it is more likely than not that  operating  income will be sufficient to utilize
these tax credits and temporary deferred deductions fully. The amount of the net
deferred  tax  assets  considered  realizable,  however,  could  be  reduced  if
estimates of future taxable income are not achieved.
