PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
GENERAL
Scotsman Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings" or the "Company") was incorporated
under the laws of Delaware in November 1993 for the purpose of acquiring
Williams Scotsman, Inc. ("Scotsman"). The Company conducts business solely as a
holding company, the only significant asset of which is the capital stock of
Scotsman. Therefore, any cash dividends to be paid on the Company's common
stock, or other cash expenses to be paid, are dependent upon the cash flows of
Scotsman. Founded in 1946, Scotsman is the second largest lessor of mobile
office and storage units in the United States with over 70,000 units leased
through 80 branch offices in 39 states. Scotsman's fleet provides high quality,
cost-effective relocatable space solutions to over 20,000 customers in 460
industries including construction, education, healthcare and retail. In addition
to its core leasing operations, Scotsman sells new and previously leased mobile
office units and provides delivery, installation and other ancillary products
and services.
Scotsman's mobile office fleet is generally comprised of standardized,
versatile products that can be configured to meet a wide variety of customer
needs. The units are fitted with axles and hitches and are towed to various
locations. Most units are wood frame construction, contain materials used in
conventional buildings, and are equipped with air conditioning and heating,
electrical outlets and, where necessary, plumbing facilities. Mobile office
units are durable and have an estimated useful life of 20 years. Storage
products are windowless and are typically used for secure storage space. There
are generally two types: ground-level entry storage containers and storage
trailers with axles and wheels. The basic storage unit features a roll-up or
swing door at one end. Units are made of heavy exterior metals for security and
water tightness. The average age of Scotsman's fleet of mobile office units is
approximately 7 years while the average age of the total fleet is approximately
8 years.
Based on its experience, management estimates that the U.S. mobile
office industry (excluding manufacturing operations) is approximately $2.5
billion and has been growing in recent years. This growth has been primarily
driven by population shifts, demographic trends, economic expansion, and the
increased demand for outsourcing space needs (for example, school expansion
programs, construction starts, recreation and entertainment activities). By
outsourcing their space needs, Scotsman's customers are able to achieve
flexibility, preserve capital for core operations, and convert fixed costs into
variable costs.
Scotsman purchases its new mobile office units through third-party
suppliers and purchases storage units in the aftermarket directly from shipping
companies or through brokers. Scotsman believes there are numerous manufacturers
and suppliers of mobile office and storage units which supply these products at
competitive prices throughout the United States. Scotsman anticipates being able
to procure an adequate supply of product on acceptable terms for its projected
operational requirements. Scotsman does not believe that the loss of any one of
its suppliers would have a material adverse effect on its operations.

ACQUISITION OF SPACE MASTER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
On September 1, 1998, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Space Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"),
at a net purchase price of $272.2 million, in a transaction accounted for under
the purchase method of accounting. At the time of the acquisition, SMI was the
third largest company in the U.S. mobile office industry ranked by fleet size,
with a lease fleet of approximately 12,800 units through a network of 26
branches in 13 states, with a concentration in the Southeast. (See note 1 of the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) The acquisition was financed in
part with borrowings under Scotsman's amended credit facility and in part with
proceeds from the issuance of 1,278,939 shares of Holdings common stock (at a
price of $50.67 per share) to its equity sponsors Cypress Merchant Banking
Partners L.P., Cypress Offshore Partners L.P., Scotsman Partners, L.P. and
Odyssey Investment Partners Fund, LP.

RECAPITALIZATION
Pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, on May 22, 1997, Holdings (i)
repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of
approximately $293.8 million in cash and approximately $21.8 million in
promissory notes which were repaid in January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410
shares of common stock for an aggregate of approximately $135.0 million in cash.
Such amounts have not been restated for the three-for-one stock split granted by
Holdings in December 1997. In related transactions on the same date or in a
series of subsequent transactions through December 1997, Holdings and Scotsman
purchased or repaid all of its outstanding indebtedness. In conjunction with the
debt extinguishment, the Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $18.3
million. The transactions described above are collectively referred to herein as
the "Recapitalization". (See note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.)
In connection with the Recapitalization, (i) Scotsman accelerated the
payment of deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all
outstanding stock options under Holdings' employee stock option plan vested and
became immediately exercisable and (iii) Scotsman canceled a portion of the
outstanding stock options. Accordingly, Scotsman recognized $5.1 million of
Recapitalization expenses including $2.5 million in connection with the
acceleration of deferred compensation and $2.6 million in connection with the
cancellation of the stock options.
In order to finance the Recapitalization, Scotsman issued $400 million
in 9.875% senior notes due 2007 and entered into a $300 million revolving bank
facility. Scotsman paid a dividend of $178.7 million to Holdings to effect
certain transactions in connection with the Recapitalization.
OPERATING STRATEGY
Due to the local and regional nature of its business, Scotsman's goals
are to become the leader in each of the local markets in which it competes and
to expand its coverage to additional local markets. To achieve market
leadership, Scotsman has implemented a strategy which emphasizes (i) superior
service, (ii) a well-maintained, readily-available and versatile lease fleet,
(iii) effective fleet management using proprietary information systems, and (iv)
targeted marketing through an experienced and motivated sales force. Scotsman
believes that it is generally the first or second largest provider of
relocatable space in each of its regional markets as measured by lease fleet
size and revenues. Scotsman's branch offices are distributed throughout the
United States and are located in a majority of the major metropolitan areas.
Management's business and growth strategy includes the following:
3
<PAGE>
FLEET AND BRANCH EXPANSION. Scotsman plans to continue to capitalize on
the industry's favorable growth trends by increasing customer penetration and
fleet size in existing markets. In addition, Scotsman plans to open branches in
new markets where positive business fundamentals exist. From January 1, 1996 to
December 31, 1998, Scotsman increased its number of branches from 49 to 80 and
the number of units from approximately 37,000 to 70,200 as a result of
acquisitions and general fleet expansion. Scotsman plans to continue expanding
its network.
SELECTIVE FLEET ACQUISITIONS. To complement its fleet and branch
expansion, Scotsman plans to capitalize on the industry's fragmentation and
expand its geographic coverage by making selective acquisitions of mobile
offices and storage product lease fleets. From January 1, 1996 to December 31,
1998, Scotsman made 11 acquisitions of approximately 18,300 units for a total
purchase price of $292.7 million, including the purchase of SMI in 1998, which
added approximately 12,800 mobile office units at a total purchase price of
$272.7 million. Units added through acquisitions have accounted for
approximately 61% of the value of Scotsman's total fleet purchases during this
period (approximately 9% excluding SMI).
ANCILLARY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. Scotsman continues to identify new
applications for its existing products, diversify into new product offerings and
deliver ancillary products and services to leverage Scotsman's existing branch
network. For example, in 1996, Scotsman began focusing on the market for storage
product units, which are used for secured storage space. Since January 1, 1996,
Scotsman has completed seven acquisitions totaling approximately 5,200 storage
units. Ancillary products and services include the rental of steps, ramps and
furniture.
COMPETITION
Although Scotsman's competition varies significantly by market, the
mobile office industry, in general, is highly competitive. Scotsman competes
primarily in terms of product availability, customer service and price. Scotsman
believes that its reputation for customer service and its ability to offer a
wide selection of units suitable for many varied uses at competitive prices
allow it to compete effectively. However, certain of Scotsman's competitors are
less leveraged, have greater market share or product availability in a given
market and have greater financial resources than Scotsman.
4
<PAGE>
EMPLOYEES
At December 31, 1998, Scotsman employed 865 persons. None of Scotsman's
employees are covered by a collective bargaining agreement. Scotsman considers
its relationship with its employees to be good.
The Company has no employees other than its officers, all of whom are
also officers of Scotsman.
REGULATORY MATTERS
The Company must comply with various federal, state and local
environmental, health and safety laws and regulations in connection with its
operations. The Company believes that it is in substantial compliance with
applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. In addition to
compliance costs, the Company may incur costs related to alleged environmental
damage associated with past or current properties owned or leased by the
Company. The Company believes that its liability, if any, for any environmental
remediation will have no material adverse effect on its financial condition.
A portion of the Company's units is subject to regulation in certain
states under motor vehicle and similar registration and certificate of title
statutes. The Company believes that it has complied in all material respects
with all motor vehicle registration and similar certificate of title statutes in
states where such statutes clearly apply to mobile office units. If laws in
other states are changed to require registration, the Company could be subject
to additional costs, fees and taxes that it does not believe would be material
to its financial condition.
5
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Scotsman's headquarters is a three-story modular office structure
located on 3.1 acres in suburban Baltimore, Maryland. Additionally, Scotsman
leases approximately 76% of its 80 branch locations and owns the balance.
Management believes that none of Scotsman's owned or leased facilities,
individually, is material to the operations of Scotsman.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Scotsman is involved in certain legal actions arising in the ordinary
course of business. Scotsman believes that none of these actions, either
individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on
Scotsman's business, results of operations or financial condition.
The Company is not a party to any legal proceedings.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
None.

<PAGE>
PART II
ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS
There is no established public trading market for Holdings' Common
Stock.
In September 1998, the Company issued 1,278,939 shares of common stock
(at a price of $50.67 per share) and contributed the net proceeds to Scotsman in
connection with its acquisition of SMI.
During 1998, Scotsman paid dividends to Holdings aggregating $22.8
million, primarily to effect the repayment of a promissory note of Holdings in
January 1998 which was issued in connection with the Recapitalization. Scotsman
does not intend to pay any further dividends in the foreseeable future, other
than for the normal operating expenses of Holdings, but reserves the right to do
so.
Pursuant to the Scotsman Holdings, Inc. Amended and Restated 1997
Employee Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan"), options for 112,550 shares of
Holdings common stock were granted during 1998. No options were excercised
during 1998 and no shares of Holdings' common stock were issued during 1998 upon
the exercise of previously granted options.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion regarding the financial condition and results
of operations of the Company for the three years ended December 31, 1998 should
be read in conjunction with the more detailed information and Financial
Statements included elsewhere herein. Certain statements in "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are
forward-looking statements. See "Forward-Looking Statements".
GENERAL
On September 1, 1998, Scotsman acquired all of the outstanding stock of
Space Master International, Inc. See "Acquisition of Space Master International,
Inc."
During 1997, the Company and Scotsman completed a series of transactions
pursuant to a Recapitalization Agreement. See "Recapitalization".
The Company is a holding company formed in November 1993, and conducts
its business solely through Scotsman, its wholly-owned subsidiary. Scotsman
derives its revenues and earnings from the leasing and sale of mobile office and
storage units, delivery and installation of those units and the provision of
other ancillary products and services. Leasing operations account for a majority
of Scotsman's revenues and gross profits. Used mobile office units are sold by
Scotsman from its lease fleet in the ordinary course of its business at either
fair market value or, to a lesser extent, pursuant to pre-established lease
purchase options. The sale of used units results in the availability of the
total cash proceeds and generally results in the reporting of gross profit on
such sales.
New unit sales revenues are derived from the sale of new mobile offices,
similar to those units leased by Scotsman. Revenues from delivery and
installation result from activities related to the transportation and
installation of and site preparation for both leased and sold products. Other
revenues are derived from other products and services including: rental of
steps, furniture and ramps; sales of parts, supplies and security systems; and
charges for granting insurance waivers and for damage billings.
Although a portion of Scotsman's business is with customers in
industries that are cyclical in nature and subject to changes in general
economic conditions, management believes that certain characteristics of the
mobile office leasing industry and Scotsman's operating strategies should help
to mitigate the effects of economic downturns. These characteristics include (i)
Scotsman's typical lease terms which include contractual provisions requiring
customers to retain units on lease for, on average, 12 months, (ii) the
flexibility and low cost offered to Scotsman's customers by leasing which may be
an attractive alternative to capital purchases, (iii) Scotsman's ability to
redeploy units during regional recessions and (iv) the diversity of Scotsman's
industry segments and the geographic balance of Scotsman's operations
(historically during economic slowdowns, the construction industry, which
represented 28% of its 1998 revenues, experiences declines in utilization rates,
while other customer segments including education, which represented 21% of 1998
revenue, are more stable).
10
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
1998 COMPARED WITH 1997. Revenues in 1998 were $287.1 million, a $50.9
million or 21.6% increase from revenues of $236.2 million in 1997. The increase
resulted from a $32.0 million or 26.6% increase in leasing revenue, a $2.4
million or 18.4% increase in used sales revenue, a $4.5 million or 10.8%
increase in new sales revenue, a $8.4 million or 21.7% increase in delivery and
installation revenue and a $3.6 million or 16.4% increase in other revenue. The
increase in leasing revenue is attributable to a 30% increase in the average
lease fleet to approximately 57,300 units, offset by a slight decrease in the
average fleet utilization of less than one percentage point to 86% and a
decrease of $4 in the average monthly rental rate. The decrease in the average
monthly rental rate is a result of modest rate increases in Scotsman's major
products offset by changes in fleet mix. The increase in new and used sales
revenue is primarily due to the overall branch expansion that Scotsman has
experienced over the last several years. The increase in delivery and
installation revenue is attributable to the increases in the leasing and new
unit sales revenue described above. Other revenue increased as a result of
increases in the rental of steps, ramps and furniture as well as miscellaneous
revenue related to services provided for customer-owned units.
Gross profit in 1998 was $145.3 million, a $37.5 million or 34.8%
increase from 1997 gross profit of $107.8 million. This increase is primarily a
result of an increase in leasing gross profit of $29.8 million or 41.8%. The
increase in gross profit from leasing is a result of the increase in leasing
revenue described above combined with an increase in leasing margins from 59.2%
in 1997 to 66.4% in 1998, primarily due to the change in the estimated residual
value of rental equipment effective October 1, 1997. (See note 2 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.) Excluding depreciation and amortization,
leasing margins were 84.5% for 1998, essentially unchanged from 84.6% in 1997.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by $11.8
million or 25.6% from 1997. Of this increase, $2.7 million relates to a non-cash
stock option expense accrual recorded in accordance with variable plan
accounting. The remaining increase is the result of the growth experienced by
Scotsman, both in terms of fleet size and number of branches as compared to
1997. Scotsman's branch network has expanded from 72 branches at December 31,
1997 to 80 branches at December 31, 1998 while the fleet has grown by
approximately 23,100 units from December 31, 1997. The overall increases in SG&A
expenses are due to increases in field related expenses, primarily payroll and
occupancy, incurred in connection with this branch expansion and fleet growth.
11
<PAGE>
Other depreciation and amortization increased from $2.9 million in 1997
to $9.6 million in 1998, $1.5 million of which relates to the amortization of
goodwill and other intangible assets recorded in connection with the SMI
acquisition (see note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). The
remaining increase relates to depreciation on increased balances of property and
equipment and inventories of steps and ramps associated with the overall growth
of Scotsman's branch network and lease fleet as discussed above.
Interest expense increased by 42.3% to $65.1 million in 1998 from $45.7
million in 1997. This increase is a result of the full year effect of borrowings
to finance the Recapitalization in May 1997, and the purchase of SMI in
September 1998, and as a result of financing the other fleet and branch growth.
The difference between the Company's reported tax provision in 1998 and
the tax provision computed based on U.S. statutory rates is primarily attributed
to a change in estimate associated with the Company's deferred tax asset
valuation allowance. During 1998, the Company recorded a charge to income tax
expense of $3.4 million relating to the establishment of a deferred tax asset
valuation allowance as a result of a change in management's tax planning
strategies associated with the recoverability of certain net operating loss
carryforwards. (See note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.) In
addition, the reported tax provision in 1998 reflects the impact of
approximately $1.5 million of non-deductible amortization of goodwill and other
intangible assets primarily associated with the SMI acquisition.
1997 COMPARED WITH 1996. Revenues in 1997 were $236.2 million, a
$41.0 million or 21.0% increase from revenues of $195.1 million in 1996. The
increase resulted from a $15.8 million or 15.2% increase in leasing revenue, a
$13.9 million or 49.5% increase in new sales revenue, a $5.9 million or 17.9%
increase in delivery and installation revenue and a $4.7 million or 26.7%
increase in other revenue. The increase in leasing revenue is attributable to a
14.2% increase in the average lease fleet to approximately 44,000 units, and an
increase in the average fleet utilization of approximately two percentage points
to 87%, partially offset by a $2 decrease in the average monthly rental rate.
The decrease in the average monthly rental rate is a result of modest rate
increases offset by changes in fleet mix. The increase in new sales revenue is
primarily attributable to a large volume of classroom sales in California during
1997. The increase in delivery and installation revenue is due to the increases
in leasing and new sales activity described above. Other revenue increased as a
result of increases in the rental of steps, ramps and furniture as well as
miscellaneous revenue related to services provided for customer-owned units.
Gross profit in 1997 was $107.8 million, a $22.2 million or 25.9%
increase from 1996 gross profit of $85.6 million. This increase is primarily a
result of an increase in leasing gross profit of $14.3 million or 25.2% and
gross profit from delivery and installation of $3.4 million or 45.1%. The
increase in gross profit from leasing is a result of the increase in leasing
revenue described above combined with an increase in leasing margins from 54.5%
in 1996 to 59.2% in
12
<PAGE>
1997, primarily due to the change in the estimated residual value of rental
equipment effective October 1, 1997. (See note 2 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.) Excluding depreciation and amortization, leasing margins
increased from 83.8% in 1996 to 84.6% in 1997. The increase in gross profit from
delivery and installation revenue is due to the increase in related revenue
described above and an improvement in the gross profit margin from 22.9% in 1996
to 28.3% in 1997 due to increased use of in-house resources vs. subcontractors.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4.0 million
or 9.4% from 1996. This increase is the result of the growth experienced by
Scotsman, both in terms of fleet size and number of branches as compared to
1996. Scotsman's branch network has expanded from 55 branches at December 31,
1996 to 72 branches at December 31, 1997 while the fleet has grown by
approximately 6,400 units from December 31, 1996. The overall increases in SG&A
expenses are due to increases in field related expenses, primarily payroll and
occupancy, incurred in connection with this branch expansion.
Recapitalization expenses of $5.1 million relate to accelerated
incentive compensation and stock option expenses incurred in connection with the
Recapitalization.
Interest expense increased by 58.1% to $45.7 million in 1997 from $28.9
million in 1996. This increase is a result of increased borrowings to finance
the Recapitalization as noted above and as a result of financing the fleet and
branch growth described above.
An extraordinary loss of $11.5 million (net of income taxes) arose from
the extinguishment of the Company's debt as a result of the Recapitalization.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During 1996, 1997, and 1998, the Company's principal sources of funds
consisted of cash flow from operating and financing sources. Cash flow from
operating activities of $46.0 million in 1996, $31.7 million in 1997 and $42.7
million in 1998 was largely generated by the rental of units from Scotsman's
lease fleet and sales of new mobile office units.
The Company has increased its EBITDA and believes that EBITDA provides
the best indication of its financial performance and provides the best measure
of its ability to meet historical debt service requirements. The Company defines
EBITDA as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization,
deferred compensation, non-cash compensation expense, recapitalization expenses,
and extraordinary loss. EBITDA as defined by the Company does not represent cash
flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting principles and
should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of
liquidity, nor should it be considered as an alternative to net income as an
indicator of the Company's operating performance. The Company's EBITDA increased
by $25.2 million or 27.3% to $117.5
13
<PAGE>
million in 1998 compared to $92.4 million in 1997. This increase in EBITDA is a
result of increased leasing activity resulting from the overall increase in the
number of units in the fleet, partially offset by a slight decline in
utilization and average monthly rental rates, and increased SG&A expenses to
support the increased activities during 1998. In 1997, the Company's EBITDA
increased by $17.0 million or 22.6% to $92.4 million compared to $75.3 million
in 1996. This increase in EBITDA is a result of increased leasing activity
resulting from the overall increase in the number of units in the fleet and
utilization, partially offset by a slight decline in average monthly rental
rates and increased SG&A expenses to support the increased activities during
1997.
Cash flow used in investing activities was $70.0 million in 1996, $85.2
million in 1997 and $390.4 million in 1998. Scotsman's primary capital
expenditures are for the discretionary purchase of new units for the lease fleet
and units purchased through acquisitions. Scotsman seeks to maintain its lease
fleet in good condition at all times and generally increases the size of its
lease fleet only in those local or regional markets experiencing economic growth
and established unit demand. During 1996, 1997 and 1998, Scotsman significantly
increased its net capital expenditures through purchases of new units for the
rental fleet, capital improvements and betterments for existing units and the
acquisition of existing rental fleets, including SMI. These expenditures
increased the size of the rental fleet by approximately 3,300 units during 1996,
6,400 units during 1997 and 23,100 during 1998. This increased activity was in
response to increased customer demand and a continuation of Scotsman's fleet
acquisition strategy. The following table sets forth Scotsman's investment in
its lease fleet for the periods indicated.

Scotsman believes it can manage the capital requirements of its lease
fleet, and thus its
14
<PAGE>
cash flow, through the careful monitoring of its lease fleet additions. During
1996, 1997 and 1998, Scotsman was able to sell used units in the ordinary course
of business (excluding units sold pursuant to purchase options) at an average of
more than 95% of their total capitalized cost and at a premium to net book
value. Such capitalized costs include the cost of the unit as well as costs of
significant improvements made to the unit. See further explanation below and
note (2) of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Historically, Scotsman
has recognized net gains on the sale of used units.
Scotsman's maintenance and refurbishment program is designed to maintain
the value of lease fleet units and realize rental rates and operating cash flows
from older units comparable to those from newer units. The sale of used units
helps preserve the overall quality of Scotsman's lease fleet and enhances cash
flow. Generally, costs of improvements and betterments aggregating less than
$1,000 per unit are expensed as incurred. Expenditures greater than $1,000 that
significantly extend the economic useful life of a unit or that materially alter
a unit's configuration are capitalized. Scotsman estimates that the current
annual capital expenditures (net of costs to replace used units that are sold)
necessary to maintain its lease fleet and facilities at their current size and
condition is approximately $25 million.
Other capital expenditures of $10.3 million, $10.9 million and $13.9
million in 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively, consist of those capital
expenditures for items not directly related to the lease fleet, such as branch
or headquarters equipment, leasehold improvements and management information
systems.
Cash provided by financing activities of $348.2 million in 1998 is
comprised primarily of long term borrowings and net proceeds from the issuance
of common stock to effect the acquisition of SMI in September 1998. In 1998,
Scotsman paid dividends to Holdings in the amount of $22.8 million primarily to
effect the repayment of a promissory note of Holdings which was issued in
connection with the Recapitalization. Cash provided by financing activities of
$53.3 million in 1997 was primarily the result of a series of transactions
related to the Recapitalization in May 1997, and is comprised of net borrowings
from long term debt offset by dividends paid to Holdings primarily to effect the
repurchase of its common stock and purchase its 11% Senior Notes. Cash provided
by financing activities of $23.9 million in 1996 was primarily from borrowings
under the line of credit.
In connection with the acquisition of SMI, Scotsman entered into an
amended credit facility providing for both increased revolver borrowings up to
$540 million (subject to the satisfaction of certain requirements including a
borrowing base test) and also a new $60 million term loan. Availability under
the revolver was $41.2 million at December 31, 1998. Borrowings under the line
may be used for working capital, acquisitions and general corporate purposes. At
Scotsman's option, the revolving credit loans may be maintained as (a) Base Rate
Loans which bear interest at the prime rate plus 1% or (b) Eurodollar Loans
which bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.25%. Beginning in 1998, the
applicable margin used to calculate such
15
<PAGE>
interest rates may be reduced if Scotsman satisfies certain leverage ratios.
Terms of the revolver, which matures May 21, 2002, are unchanged from the
original credit agreement dated May 1997. The term loan, which matures May 21,
2005, bears interest at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar Rate
plus 3.25%. Principal payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for
the first four years, with equal quarterly installments thereafter. The amended
credit facility is guaranteed by Holdings and a subsidiary of Scotsman and is
secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all the assets of
Scotsman, Holdings and such subsidiary. The amended credit facility contains
certain covenants including restrictions against mergers, acquisitions, and
disposition of assets, voluntary prepayments of debt, financial covenants and
certain other covenants.
Scotsman believes it will have, for the next 12 months, sufficient
liquidity under its revolving line of credit and from cash generated from
operations to meet its expected obligations as they arise.
SEASONALITY
Although demand from certain of Scotsman's customers is somewhat
seasonal, Scotsman's operations as a whole are not seasonal to any significant
extent.
INFLATION
Scotsman believes that inflation has not had a material effect on its
results of operations. However, an inflationary environment could materially
increase interest rates on Scotsman's floating rate debt and the replacement
cost of units in Scotsman's lease fleet. The price of used units sold by
Scotsman could also increase in such an environment. Scotsman's standard
12-month lease term generally provides for annual rental rate escalation at the
inflation rate as determined by the Consumer Price Index after the end of the
initial lease term. In addition, Scotsman may seek to limit its exposure to
interest rate fluctuations by utilizing certain hedging mechanisms, although it
is under no obligation to do so.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
Scotsman has developed a comprehensive Year 2000 Compliance Plan
designed to ensure that all of its significant or "mission critical" computer
systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and
beyond. To date, Scotsman has completed all phases of its plan, including the
assessment, remediation, testing and implementation of its key business computer
applications affected by the Year 2000 issue. During the past three years,
Scotsman has upgraded and/or replaced certain computer hardware and software
systems that are significant to its business operations. Such systems have been
determined to be Year 2000 compliant. Modification and testing of software
applications has been completed and the software is
16
<PAGE>
currently operational. Many of these system replacements/upgrades were a part of
Scotsman's business expansion and technology initiatives and were not undertaken
in response to Year 2000 issues. Additionally, Scotsman has surveyed its
significant suppliers, large customers and financial institutions to ensure that
those parties have appropriate plans to remediate Year 2000 issues where their
systems interface with Scotsman's systems or otherwise impact its operations. To
date, Scotsman is not aware of any such third party with a Year 2000 issue that
would materially impact Scotsman's results of operations, liquidity or capital
resources. Lastly, Scotsman's products and services are not directly impacted by
the Year 2000 issue as there are no computer processors or embedded systems in
our products that make use of century date logic.
While Scotsman believes its planning efforts are adequate to address its
Year 2000 concerns, there can be no guarantee that the systems of other
companies on which Scotsman's systems and operations rely will be converted on a
timely basis and will not have a material effect on Scotsman. However, due to
the geographic diversity of Scotsman's 80 branch offices and the regionalized
nature of manufacturers and other vendors servicing the branch network, the
likelihood of Year 2000 failures having a material impact on the conduct of our
daily business operations is not significant. Total costs related to Year 2000
initiatives are insignificant to Scotsman's results of operations or financial
position. Scotsman has prepared a contingency plan for all mission critical
computer applications that could be impacted by the Year 2000 issue. The
contingency plan involves manual workarounds, use of alternate vendors and
manufacturers and adjusting staffing strategies.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors
Scotsman Holdings, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Scotsman
Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at Item 14(a).
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 1998 and 1997 consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Scotsman Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and
1997 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Scotsman Holdings, Inc. was organized in November 1993 for the purpose of
acquiring Williams Scotsman (Scotsman). The operations of Scotsman Holdings,
Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) consist of the leasing and sale of mobile
offices, storage products, and their delivery and installation. Included in the
operations of Scotsman are two wholly own subsidiaries, Mobile Field Office
Company (MFO) and Willscot Equipment, LLC (Willscot). Willscot, a special
purpose subsidiary, was formed in May 1997. The operations of Willscot are
limited to the leasing of its mobile office units to Scotsman under a master
lease and issuing the guarantee. Effective April 30, 1997, MFO transferred
substantially all of its assets to Scotsman and ceased operations. Effective
December 31, 1997, MFO merged into Scotsman.
ACQUISITION OF SPACE MASTER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
On September 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space
Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"), in a
transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total
consideration for the acquisition of SMI was $272,721, including the repayment
of existing indebtedness of SMI. The purchase price paid was allocated to the
net assets acquired of $112,568 with the excess of $160,153 representing
goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based
upon estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. These estimates may
vary from actual amounts ultimately recorded. The acquisition was financed in
part with additional borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility and
in part with equity contributed by Scotsman Holdings, Inc.
The pro forma unaudited results of operations of the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, assuming consummation of the Acquisition as of January 1, 1997
are as follows:

RECAPITALIZATION
Pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, on May 22, 1997, the Company (i)
repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of
approximately $293,777 in cash and approximately $21,834 in promissory notes due
January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410 shares of common stock for an aggregate
of approximately $135,000 in cash. Such amounts have not been restated to
reflect the 3-for-1 stock split granted by Holdings in December, 1997. In
related transactions on the same date, (i) the Company purchased all of its
outstanding 11% Series B senior notes due 2004 ($29,292 aggregate principal
amount) for approximately $32,251, including accrued interest and fees, (ii)
Scotsman purchased $164,660 aggregate principal amount of its 9.5% senior
secured notes due 2000 for approximately $179,852, including accrued interest
and fees and (iii) Scotsman repaid all of its outstanding indebtedness
($119,017) under its prior credit facility. Additionally, in a series of
subsequent transactions, Scotsman purchased the remaining $300 principal amount
of its 9.5% senior secured notes due 2000 for approximately $351, including
accrued interest and fees. In conjunction with the debt extinguishment, the
Company recognized an extraordinary loss of $18,333.
In connection with the recapitalization, (i) Scotsman accelerated the payment of
deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all outstanding
stock options under the Company's employee stock option plan vested and became
immediately exercisable and (iii) Scotsman canceled a portion of the outstanding
stock options. Accordingly, the Company recognized $5,105 of recapitalization
expenses including $2,489 in connection with the acceleration of deferred
compensation and $2,616 in connection with the cancellation of the stock
options.
In order to finance the recapitalization, Scotsman issued $400,000 in 9.875%
senior notes due 2007 and entered into a $300,000 revolving bank facility.
Scotsman paid a dividend of $178,749 to the Company to pay recapitalization
expenses, to repurchase common stock and to purchase the 11% Series B senior
notes.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
(a) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(b) LEASING OPERATIONS
Equipment is leased generally under operating leases and, occasionally,
under sales-type lease arrangements. Operating lease terms generally range
from 3 months to 60 months, and contractually averaged approximately 12
months at December 31, 1998. Rents billed in advance are initially
deferred and recognized as revenue over the term of the operating leases.
Rental equipment is depreciated by the straight-line method using an
estimated economic useful life of 10 to 20 years and an estimated residual
value of 50%.
Effective October 1, 1997, the Company changed its estimated residual
value from 20% to 50% to better reflect the estimated residual value of
the equipment. The effect of this change in estimate is a decrease in
depreciation expense of approximately $2,800, and an increase in net
income of approximately $1,841, or $0.27 per share, (net of the related
tax expense) for the year ended December 31, 1997.
Costs of improvements and betterments are capitalized, whereas costs of
replacement items, repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs
incurred for equipment to meet particular lease specifications are
capitalized and depreciated over the lease term. However, costs
aggregating less than $1 per unit are generally expensed as incurred.
(c) DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
27
<PAGE>
Costs of obtaining long-term debt are amortized using the straight-line
method over the term of the debt.

SCOTSMAN HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(d) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful
lives ranging from 20 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to
12 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged
to expense as incurred.
(e) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The excess of cost over fair values of net assets acquired in purchase
transactions has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a
straight line basis over 20 to 40 years. Other identifiable intangibles
acquired of $1,936 include assembled workforce and covenant not to
compete, which are being amortized on a straight line basis over periods
of 21 to 86 months. As of December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, accumulated
amortization was $1,600, $210, and $140, respectively.
On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its
intangible assets to determine if the facts and circumstances suggest that
intangible assets may be impaired. If this review indicates that
intangible assets may not be recoverable, as determined by the
undiscounted cash flow of the entity acquired over the remaining
amortization period, the Company's carrying value of intangible assets is
reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows.
(f) INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated
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 in effect for the year in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. 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.

Long-term debt consists of the following:

---------------------------
Borrowings under revolving credit facility $ 385,597 $133,304
Term loan 59,850 -
9.875% senior notes 400,000 400,000
---------------------------
$ 845,447 $533,304
===========================
In connection with the acquisition of SMI, the loan agreement for the credit
facility was amended to provide for a $540,000 revolving credit facility
maturing May 21, 2002 and a $60,000 term loan maturing May 21, 2005.
Availability under the revolver is based upon a borrowing base calculation and
was $41,232 at December 31,1998. Interest is payable at a rate of either prime
plus 1.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%. Such rates will vary based upon
specified leverage ratio thresholds. The weighted average interest rate of the
revolver under the credit agreement was 7.8% at December 31, 1998. Principal
payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for the first four years,
with equal quarterly installments thereafter. Interest on the term loan is
payable at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 3.25%.
The weighted average interest rate of the term loan under the credit agreement
was 8.3% at December 31, 1998.
Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on and
security interest in the Company's rental equipment, accounts receivable and
property and equipment. In addition to the restrictions and limitations
described under the note agreement, the credit facility loan agreement requires
compliance with certain financial covenants including capital expenditures,
interest coverage and fleet utilization.
The 9.875% senior notes are due June 1, 2007 with interest payable semi-annually
on June 1 and December 1 of each year. On or after June 1, 2002, the notes are
redeemable at the option of the Company, at redemption prices of 104.938% and
102.469% during the 12 month periods beginning June 1, 2002 and 2003,
respectively, and 100% thereafter. Upon the occurrence of a change of control,
the notes may be redeemed as a whole at the option of the Company at a
redemption price of 100% plus the applicable premium as defined in the
agreement. Additionally, on or prior to June 1, 2000, the Company, at its
option, may redeem up to $160,000 of notes, with the proceeds of a
32

public equity offering at a redemption price of 109.875%.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
4. LONG TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
The notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinated
in right of payment to all secured indebtedness, including the new revolving
credit facility. Additionally, the notes are guaranteed by Scotsman's
wholly-owned subsidiary, Willscot. Such guaranty is unconditional and joint and
several. The note agreement limits or restricts the Company's ability to incur
additional indebtedness; make distributions of capital in an amount not to
exceed 50% of accumulated earnings, excluding the recapitalization-related
distribution; dispose of property; incur liens on property and merge with or
acquire other companies.
At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the fair value of long-term debt was
approximately $863,000 and $551,000, respectively, based on the quoted market
price of the senior notes and the book value of the revolving credit facilities,
which are adjustable rate notes.
The Company also had a $21,834 promissory note payable at December 31, 1997 that
was incurred in connection with the recapitalization described in Note 1. In
January 1998, through the payment of a dividend by Scotsman, the Company repaid
the promissory note plus accrued interest.
Letter of credit obligations at December 31, 1998 were $1,515.

========================
</TABLE>
At December 31, 1998, the Company had net operating loss carryovers available
for federal income tax purposes of $131,952 (net of related valuation
allowance), of which $89,502 (net of related valuation allowance) relates to
pre-recapitalization loss carryovers that are subject to certain limitations
under the Internal Revenue Code. These net operating loss carryovers and
investment tax credit carryovers of approximately $860 expire at various dates
from 2003 to 2018. Also, alternative minimum tax credit carryovers of
approximately $1,465 are available without expiration limitations. During 1998,
the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense of $3,400, relating to the
establishment of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance as a result of a
change in management's tax planning strategies associated with the
recoverability of certain net operating loss carryforwards.

7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has adopted a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) which is
intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Sections 401(a),
401(k), and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code). The 401(k)
Plan covers substantially all employees and permits participants to contribute
the lessor of (i) 15% of their annual compensation from the Company or (ii) the
dollar limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,000 in 1998). All
amounts deferred under this salary reduction feature are fully vested.
The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which the Company
may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant. Such
percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion.
The Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which the Company may
contribute, at its discretion, an additional amount allocable to the accounts of
active participants meeting the aforementioned eligibility requirements.
Contributions made by the Company on behalf of a 401(k) Plan participant vest
ratably during the first five years of employment and 100% thereafter. Matching
contributions by the Company to the 401(k) Plan were approximately $329 in 1998,
$309 in 1997, and $243 in 1996. No contributions have been made by the Company
under the profit sharing feature.
During 1997 the Company adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives
which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for a
select group of management within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and
401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This plan
allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their compensation until
termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events. Such amounts are
placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As of December 31,
1998, the total amount deferred under this plan, including earnings, was $2,762.

SCOTSMAN HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED)
In December 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan for certain key
employees. The plan was subsequently amended and restated in 1998. Under the
plan, as amended, up to 479,500 options to purchase Holdings' outstanding common
stock may be granted. The options are granted with an exercise price equal to
the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. Fifty percent of the
options granted vest ratably over five years, and fifty percent vest ratably
based on the Company meeting certain financial goals over the next five years.
All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company is accounting
for the options using the variable plan accounting. Under this plan, 112,550 and
352,950 options were granted in 1998 and 1997, respectively. For those options
in which both the grant date and the measurement date were known in 1998, the
Company recognized $2,725 of compensation expense. No expense was recognized in
1997.
The Company also adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees in March
1995. The options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of
the shares as of the date of grant. The Company accounted for stock option
grants under this plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees", and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense
for the stock option grants. All options outstanding under this plan became
fully vested in conjunction with the recapitalization. In addition, employees
with these options were given the opportunity to cancel their options at a price
of $30.50 per option. As a result, 128,400 of the outstanding options were
canceled in 1997. The difference between the $30.50 and the option exercise
price has been recorded as recapitalization expense in the consolidated
statement of operations.
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its
employee stock options under the minimum value method of that Statement. The
minimum value for these options was estimated at the date of grant by
calculating the excess of the fair value of the stock at the date of grant over
the present value of both the exercise price and the expected dividend payments,
each discounted at the risk free rate, over the expected exercise life of the
option. The following weighted average assumptions were used for 1998, 1997 and
1996: risk-free interest rate of 5.5%, 6%, and 6%, respectively; weighted
average expected life of the options of 5 years; and no dividends.

Prior to the recapitalization (described in Note 1), the Company had an
Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan) that covered approximately 40 management
members. In connection with the Plan, the Company recorded $2,925, and $1,800 of
management incentive compensation in 1997 and 1996 respectively, a portion of
which was deferred. In 1997, as part of the recapitalization, the Company
accelerated the payment of deferred compensation in the amount of $6,225 and the
Plan was dissolved.

Report of Independent Auditors
Board of Directors
Williams Scotsman, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Williams
Scotsman, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder's equity and cash
flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998. Our
audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index at
Item 14(a). These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 1998 and 1997 consolidated financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial
position of Williams Scotsman, Inc. and subsidiaries at December 31, 1998 and
1997, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related
financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic
financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly in all material respects
the information set forth therein.

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Williams Scotsman, Inc. (the Company) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Scotsman
Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), a corporation which was organized in November 1993
for the purpose of acquiring the Company.
The operations of the Company consist of the leasing and sale of mobile offices
and storage products (equipment) and their delivery and installation.
ACQUISITION OF SPACE MASTER INTERNATIONAL, INC.
On September 1, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of Space
Master International, Inc., a privately held Georgia corporation ("SMI"), in a
transaction accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Total
consideration for the acquisition of SMI was $272,721, including the repayment
of existing indebtedness of SMI. The purchase price paid was allocated to the
net assets acquired of $112,568 with the excess of $160,153 representing
goodwill and other intangible assets. The purchase price allocation was based
upon estimates of the fair value of the net assets acquired. These estimates may
vary from actual amounts ultimately recorded. The acquisition was financed in
part with additional borrowings under the Company's amended credit facility and
in part with equity contributed by Scotsman Holdings, Inc.
The pro forma unaudited results of operations of the years ended December 31,
1998 and 1997, assuming consummation of the Acquisition as of January 1, 1997
are as follows:
1998 1997
--------------- -------------
Total revenue $345,609 $325,490
Income before extraordinary item 3,204 5,292
Net income (loss) 3,204 (3,135)

1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (CONTINUED)
RECAPITALIZATION
Pursuant to a recapitalization agreement, on May 22, 1997, Holdings (i)
repurchased 3,210,679 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate of
approximately $293,777 in cash and approximately $21,834 in promissory notes due
January 1998 and (ii) issued 1,475,410 shares of common stock for an aggregate
of approximately $135,000 in cash. Such amounts have not been restated to
reflect the 3-for-1 stock split granted by Holdings in December, 1997. In
related transactions on the same date, (i) Holdings purchased all of its
outstanding 11% Series B senior notes due 2004 ($29,292 aggregate principal
amount) for approximately $32,251, including accrued interest and fees, (ii) the
Company purchased $164,660 aggregate principal amount of its 9.5% senior secured
notes due 2000 for approximately $179,852, including accrued interest and fees
and (iii) the Company repaid all of its outstanding indebtedness ($119,017)
under its prior credit facility. Additionally, in a series of subsequent
transactions, the Company purchased the remaining $300 principal amount of its
9.5% senior secured notes due 2000 for approximately $351, including accrued
interest and fees. In conjunction with the debt extinguishment, the Company
recognized an extraordinary loss of $13,719.
In connection with the recapitalization, (i) the Company accelerated the payment
of deferred compensation under its long term incentive plan, (ii) all
outstanding stock options under Holdings' employee stock option plan vested and
became immediately exercisable and (iii) the Company canceled a portion of the
outstanding stock options. Accordingly, the Company recognized $5,105 of
recapitalization expenses including $2,489 in connection with the acceleration
of deferred compensation and $2,616 in connection with the cancellation of the
stock options.
In order to finance the recapitalization, the Company issued $400,000 in 9.875%
senior notes due 2007 and entered into a $300,000 revolving bank facility. The
Company paid a dividend of $178,749 to Holdings to pay recapitalization
expenses, to repurchase common stock and to purchase the 11% Series B senior
notes.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Mobile Field Office Company (MFO) and
Willscot Equipment, LLC (Willscot). Willscot, a special purpose subsidiary, was
formed in May 1997 and is a guarantor of the Company's credit facility and acts
as an unconditional and joint and several subordinated guarantor of the 9.875%
senior notes. The operations of Willscot are limited to the leasing of its
mobile office units to the Company under a master lease and issuing the
guarantee. Effective April 30, 1997, MFO transferred substantially all of its
assets to the Company and ceased operations. Effective December 31, 1997, MFO
merged into the Company. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
(a) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements
and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
(b) LEASING OPERATIONS
Equipment is leased generally under operating leases and, occasionally,
under sales-type lease arrangements. Operating lease terms generally range
from 3 months to 60 months, and contractually averaged approximately 12
months at December 31, 1998. Rents billed in advance are initially
deferred and recognized as revenue over the term of the operating leases.
Rental equipment is depreciated by the straight-line method using an
estimated economic useful life of 10 to 20 years and an estimated residual
value of 50%.
Effective October 1, 1997, the Company changed its estimated residual
value from 20% to 50% to better reflect the estimated residual value of
the equipment. The effect of this change in estimate is a decrease in
depreciation expense of approximately $2,800, and an increase in net
income of approximately $1,826, or $0.55 per share, (net of the related
tax expense) for the year ended December 31, 1997.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(b) LEASING OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Costs of improvements and betterments are capitalized, whereas costs of
replacement items, repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs
incurred for equipment to meet particular lease specifications are
capitalized and depreciated over the lease term. However, costs
aggregating less than $1 per unit are generally expensed as incurred.
(c) DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS
Costs of obtaining long-term debt are amortized using the straight-line
method over the term of the debt.
(d) PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful
lives ranging from 20 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to
12 years for furniture and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are charged
to expense as incurred.
(e) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The excess of cost over fair values of net assets acquired in purchase
transactions has been recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on a
straight line basis over 20 to 40 years. Other identifiable intangibles
acquired of $1,936 include assembled workforce and covenant not to
compete, which are being amortized on a straight line basis over periods
of 21 to 86 months. As of December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, accumulated
amortization was $1,600, $210, and $140, respectively.
On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates the carrying value of its
intangible assets to determine if the facts and circumstances suggest that
intangible assets may be impaired. If this review indicates that
intangible assets may not be recoverable, as determined by the
undiscounted cash flow of the entity acquired over the remaining
amortization period, the Company's carrying value of intangible assets is
reduced by the estimated shortfall of cash flows.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
(f) INCOME TAXES
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated
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 in effect for the year in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. 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.
(g) RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current
year presentation.
(h) EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share is computed based on weighted average number of common
shares outstanding of 3,320,000 shares for 1998, 1997 and 1996.
3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment consist of the following:

4. LONG-TERM DEBT
Long-term debt consists of the following:
DECEMBER 31
1998 1997
---------------------------
Borrowings under revolving credit facility $ 385,597 $133,304
Term loan 59,850 -
9.875% senior notes 400,000 400,000
---------------------------
$ 845,447 $533,304
===========================
In connection with the acquisition of SMI, the loan agreement for the credit
facility was amended to provide for a $540,000 revolving credit facility
maturing May 21, 2002 and a $60,000 term loan maturing May 21, 2005.
Availability under the revolver is based upon a borrowing base calculation and
was $41,232 at December 31,1998. Interest is payable at a rate of either prime
plus 1.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 2.25%. Such rates will vary based upon
specified leverage ratio thresholds. The weighted average interest rate of the
revolver under the credit agreement was 7.8% at December 31, 1998. Principal
payments due on the term loan are equal to 1% per year for the first four years,
with equal quarterly installments thereafter. Interest on the term loan is
payable at a rate of either prime plus 2.0% or the Eurodollar rate plus 3.25%.
The weighted average interest rate of the term loan under the credit agreement
was 8.3% at December 31, 1998.
52
<PAGE>
WILLIAMS SCOTSMAN, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
4. LONG TERM DEBT (CONTINUED)
Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a first priority lien on and
security interest in the Company's rental equipment, accounts receivable and
property and equipment. In addition to the restrictions and limitations
described under the note agreement, the credit facility loan agreement requires
compliance with certain financial covenants including capital expenditures,
interest coverage and fleet utilization.
The 9.875% senior notes are due June 1, 2007 with interest payable semi-annually
on June 1 and December 1 of each year. On or after June 1, 2002, the notes are
redeemable at the option of the Company, at redemption prices of 104.938% and
102.469% during the 12 month periods beginning June 1, 2002 and 2003,
respectively, and 100% thereafter. Upon the occurrence of a change of control,
the notes may be redeemed as a whole at the option of the Company at a
redemption price of 100% plus the applicable premium as defined in the
agreement. Additionally, on or prior to June 1, 2000, the Company, at its
option, may redeem up to $160,000 of notes, with the proceeds of a public equity
offering at a redemption price of 109.875%.
The notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and are subordinated
in right of payment to all secured indebtedness, including the new revolving
credit facility. Additionally, the notes are guaranteed by Willscot, the
Company's wholly-owned subsidiary. Such guaranty is unconditional and joint and
several. The note agreement limits or restricts the Company's ability to incur
additional indebtedness; make distributions of capital in an amount not to
exceed 50% of accumulated earnings, excluding the recapitalization-related
distribution; dispose of property; incur liens on property and merge with or
acquire other companies.
At December 31, 1998 and 1997, the fair value of long-term debt was
approximately $863,000 and $551,000, respectively, based on the quoted market
price of the senior notes and the book value of the revolving credit facilities,
which are adjustable rate notes.
Letter of credit obligations at December 31, 1998 were $1,515.

========================
</TABLE>
At December 31, 1998, the Company had net operating loss carryovers available
for federal income tax purposes of $116,484 (net of related valuation
allowance), of which $80,186 (net of related valuation allowance) relates to
pre-recapitalization loss carryovers that are subject to certain limitations
under the Internal Revenue Code. These net operating loss carryovers and
investment tax credit carryovers of approximately $860 expire at various dates
from 2003 to 2018. Also, alternative minimum tax credit carryovers of
approximately $1,465 are available without expiration limitations. During 1998,
the Company recorded a charge to income tax expense of $3,400, relating to the
establishment of a deferred tax asset valuation allowance as a result of a
change in management's tax planning strategies associated with the
recoverability of certain net operating loss carryforwards.

Rent expense was $5,947 in 1998, $4,231 in 1997 and $2,875 in 1996.
7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
The Company has adopted a defined contribution plan (the 401(k) Plan) which is
intended to satisfy the tax qualification requirements of Sections 401(a),
401(k), and 401(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the Code). The 401(k)
Plan covers substantially all employees and permits participants to contribute
the lessor of (i) 15% of their annual compensation from the Company or (ii) the
dollar limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,000 in 1998). All
amounts deferred under this salary reduction feature are fully vested.
The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which the Company
may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant. Such
percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their discretion.
The Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which the Company may
contribute, at its discretion, an additional amount allocable to the accounts of
active participants meeting the aforementioned eligibility requirements.

7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED)
During 1997 the Company adopted a Deferred Compensation Plan for Executives
which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation plan maintained for a
select group of management within the meaning of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and
401(a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This plan
allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their compensation until
termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events. Such amounts are
placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As of December 31,
1998, the total amount deferred under this plan, including earnings, was $2,762.
In December 1997, the Company adopted a stock option plan for certain key
employees. The plan was subsequently amended and restated in 1998. Under the
plan, as amended, up to 479,500 options to purchase Holdings' outstanding common
stock may be granted. The options are granted with an exercise price equal to
the fair value of the shares as of the date of grant. Fifty percent of the
options granted vest ratably over five years, and fifty percent vest ratably
based on the Company meeting certain financial goals over the next five years.
All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. The Company is accounting
for the options using the variable plan accounting. Under this plan, 112,550 and
352,950 options were granted in 1998 and 1997, respectively. For those options
in which both the grant date and the measurement date were known in 1998, the
Company recognized $2,725 of compensation expense. No expense was recognized in
1997.
The Company also adopted a stock option plan for certain key employees in March
1995. The options were granted with an exercise price equal to the fair value of
the shares as of the date of grant. The Company accounted for stock option
grants under this plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees", and, accordingly, recognizes no compensation expense
for the stock option grants. All options outstanding under this plan became
fully vested in conjunction with the recapitalization. In addition, employees
with these options were given the opportunity to cancel their options at a price
of $30.50 per option. As a result, 128,400 of the outstanding options were
canceled in 1997. The difference between the $30.50 and the option exercise
price has been recorded as recapitalization expense in the consolidated
statement of operations.

7. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS (CONTINUED)
Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for its
employee stock options under the minimum value method of that Statement. The
minimum value for these options was estimated at the date of grant by
calculating the excess of the fair value of the stock at the date of grant over
the present value of both the exercise price and the expected dividend payments,
each discounted at the risk free rate, over the expected exercise life of the
option. The following weighted average assumptions were used for 1998, 1997 and
1996: risk-free interest rate of 5.5%, 6%, and 6%, respectively; weighted
average expected life of the options of 5 years; and no dividends.
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated minimum value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. Note that the
effects of applying SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosure in the current year are
not necessarily representative of the effects on pro forma net income for future
years. The Company's pro forma information follows:
1998 1997 1996
---------- ----------- ----------
Pro forma net income (loss) $ 3,178 $ (4,360) $ 9,076
Pro forma earnings (loss) per share $ 0.96 $ (1.31) $ 2.73

Incentive Compensation Plan (the Plan) that covered approximately 40 management
members. In connection with the Plan, the Company recorded $2,925, and $1,800 of
management incentive compensation in 1997 and 1996 respectively, a portion of
which was deferred. In 1997, as part of the recapitalization, the Company
accelerated the payment of deferred compensation in the amount of $6,225 and the
Plan was dissolved.

8. SUMMARIZED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF SUBSIDIARIES
The 9.875% senior notes issued by the Company are guaranteed by its wholly owned
subsidiary, Willscot. See Note 2 for a description of the operations of this
subsidiary. Additionally, Willscot has entered into a management agreement with
the Company whereby it pays a fee to the Company in an amount equal to the
rental and other income (net of depreciation expense) it earns from the Company.
Therefore, Willscot earns no net income. Full separate financial statements of
the guarantor subsidiaries have not been included because management has
determined they are not material to investors. Summarized financial statements
of those subsidiaries as of and for the year ended December 31, 1998 and 1997

limit described in Section 402(g) of the Code ($10,000 in 1998). All amounts
deferred under the 401(k) Plan's salary reduction feature by a participant are
fully vested.
The 401(k) Plan has a "matching" contribution feature under which
Scotsman may contribute a percentage of the amount deferred by each participant
who makes salary reduction deferrals to the 401(k) Plan, has been employed for
12 consecutive months by Scotsman, completes 1,000 hours of service with
Scotsman during the Plan year and is employed by Scotsman on the last day of the
year. This percentage, if any, is determined by the Board of Directors at their
discretion and is communicated to 401(k) Plan participants during the year for
which the matching contribution will be made. Matching contributions made on
behalf of a 401(k) Plan participant are subject to a deferred vesting schedule
based on the number of years a participant has been employed by Scotsman. A
participant becomes 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% vested in the matching
contributions made to the 401(k) Plan on his or her behalf after completion of
1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 years of service with Scotsman, respectively.
The 401(k) Plan also has a "profit sharing" feature, under which
Scotsman may contribute, in its discretion, an additional amount which is
allocated to the accounts of active
71
<PAGE>
participants who have been employed for 12 consecutive months by Scotsman, who
have completed 1,000 hours of service during the Plan Year and who are employed
on the last day of the year, based on such participants' compensation for the
year. The vesting schedule for these contributions is identical to that for
matching contributions.
A participant's 401(k) Plan benefits generally are payable upon the
participant's death, disability, retirement, or other termination of employment.
Payments under the 401(k) Plan are made in a lump sum.
In 1998, Scotsman made matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan
participants in an aggregate amount of $329,303.
DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN FOR EXECUTIVES
During 1997, Scotsman adopted a deferred compensation plan for
executives (the "Plan") which is meant to be an unfunded deferred compensation
plan maintained for a select group of management within the meaning of Sections
201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401 (a)(1) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974. The Plan allows key employees to defer a specified amount of their
compensation until termination or upon the occurrence of other specified events.
Such amounts are placed in the investment vehicles of the employee's choice. As
of December 31, 1998, the total amount deferred under this Plan, including
earnings, was $2,762,000.
COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
During 1998, the Compensation Committee was comprised of two outside
directors: Daniel L. Doctoroff and David P. Spalding. No member of the Committee
has any interlocking or insider relationship with the Company which is required
to be reported under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
THE RECAPITALIZATION
Holdings, Odyssey Investment Group, certain other existing stockholders
of Holdings, certain partnerships affiliated with The Cypress Group L.L.C. and
Scotsman Partners, L.P. are parties to a Recapitalization Agreement dated April
11, 1997 pursuant to which the Recapitalization occurred. See
"Recapitalization".
STOCKHOLDERS' AGREEMENT
Cypress Merchant Banking Partners, L.P., Cypress Offshore Partners,
L.P., Scotsman Partners, L.P. (collectively the "Investor Group"), the
Management Stockholders and Holdings are parties to a Management Stockholders'
and Optionholders' Agreement dated as of September 14, 1998 (the "Stockholders'
Agreement"), which contains certain rights and restrictions with respect to the
transfer of each Management Stockholder's shares of Common Stock. The
Stockholders' Agreement prohibits the transfer of any shares of Common Stock by
Management Stockholders (other than sales required in connection with the
disposition of all shares of Common Stock owned by the Investor Group and its
affiliates) until the earlier of twelve months after an initial public offering
of the equity of Holdings for designated officers (and sixty days after an
initial public offering for non-designated officers) or the day after the
Investor Group and its affiliates have disposed of more than 33-1/3% of the
shares of Common Stock originally acquired by the Investor Group, and
thereafter, the aggregate number of shares which may be transferred by each
Management Stockholder in any calendar year (other than certain required sales)
may not exceed 25% of the number of shares acquired pursuant to the Subscription
Agreement between Holdings and such Management Stockholder plus the number of
any shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of stock purchase options. In
addition, the Stockholders' Agreement restricts the transfer of shares of Common
Stock by each Management Stockholder for a period of five years from the date of
purchase of such shares, except certain permitted transfers and transfers
pursuant to an effective registration statement or in accordance with Rule 144
under the Securities Act. Upon the expiration of such five-year period, subject
to the foregoing restrictions, each Management Stockholder may transfer his
shares after giving to the Investor Group and Holdings, respectively, a right of
first refusal to purchase such shares.
Each Management Stockholder has the right (and in limited circumstances
the obligation) to sell his shares in connection with certain dispositions of
shares by the Investor Group and the right to cause his shares to be included in
certain registrations of Common Stock on behalf of the Investor Group. In
addition, upon termination of any Management Stockholder's employment, Holdings
may elect to require such Management Stockholder to sell to Holdings all of his
shares.

<PAGE>
INVESTOR STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT
On May 22, 1997, Holdings, certain partnerships affiliated with The
Cypress Group, L.L.C. (the "Cypress Stockholders") and Scotsman Partners, L.P.
(collectively, including their permitted transferees, the "Investor
Stockholders") and Odyssey Investment Group, Barry P. Gossett, BT Investment
Partners, Inc. and certain other stockholders (together with their permitted
transferees and the Investor Stockholders, the "Stockholders") entered into an
investor stockholders agreement, which was subsequently amended on September 1,
1998 (the "Investor Stockholders Agreement").
Under the terms of the Investor Stockholders Agreement, unless otherwise
agreed to by the Investor Stockholders, the board of directors of Holdings (the
"Board of Directors") will consist of nine directors: three persons nominated by
the Cypress Stockholders, three persons nominated by Scotsman Partners, one
person nominated by Odyssey Investment Group, the Chairman of the Board of
Directors and the President of Holdings. Each of Cypress Stockholders, Scotsman
Partners and Odyssey Investment Group is entitled to remove and replace any or
all of their respective designees on the Board of Directors and each is entitled
to remove the director or directors who are the Chairman of the Board and the
President of Holdings in accordance with the provisions of the Investor
Stockholders Agreement. If the Holdings Common Stock held by either the Cypress
Stockholders or Scotsman Partners is reduced to an amount less than 20% of the
outstanding Holdings Common Stock but 5% or more of the outstanding Holdings
Common Stock, the Cypress Stockholders or Scotsman Partners, as the case may be,
will be entitled to designate one director. Each of the Cypress Stockholders or
Scotsman Partners will lose the right to designate one director when the Cypress
Stockholders or Scotsman Partners, as the case may be, no longer holds at least
5% of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock. From and after the date that
Odyssey Investment Group owns less than 5% of the outstanding Holdings Common
Stock, it will no longer be entitled to designate any director for election or
removal. If any of Cypress Stockholders, Scotsman Partners and Odyssey
Investment Group is entitled to designate a lesser number of directors pursuant
to the Investor Stockholders Agreement, then they will vote their shares to
cause the number of the entire Board of Directors to be reduced by the number of
directors they are no longer entitled to designate.
Under the Investor Stockholders Agreement, until such time as either the
Cypress Stockholders or the Scotsman Partners is no longer entitled to designate
three directors, without the approval of a majority of the directors designated
by each of the Cypress Stockholders and Scotsman Partners, respectively,
Holdings will not take certain actions (including mergers, consolidations, sales
of all or substantially all assets, electing or removing the Chairman or
President of Holdings, issuing securities, incurring certain indebtedness,
making certain acquisitions, approving operating and capital budgets and other
major transactions).
Under the Investor Stockholders Agreement, prior to the consummation of
an initial
77
<PAGE>
public offering of Holdings Common Stock (an "IPO"), each Stockholder will have
the right to acquire shares of Holdings Common Stock in connection with certain
new issuances of Holdings Common Stock, on the same terms and conditions, for
the amount necessary to allow the participating Stockholder to maintain its
percentage holding of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock.
The Investor Stockholders Agreement contains provisions limiting the
ability of Stockholders to transfer their shares in certain circumstances. Among
other provisions, the Investor Stockholders Agreement includes (i) rights of
first offer in favor of the Investor Stockholders with respect to proposed
transfers of shares to a third party and (ii) tag-along rights in favor of each
Stockholder pursuant to which a selling Stockholder would be required to permit
the other Stockholders to participate on a proportional basis in a transfer of
shares to a third party. Also, if one or more Stockholders holding at least 60%
of the outstanding Holdings Common Stock determine to sell shares to a third
party, in certain circumstances such Stockholders have the right to require the
other Stockholders to sell their shares to such third party.
Under the Investor Stockholders Agreement, the Stockholders have the
right to require the Company to register their shares of Holdings Common Stock
under the Securities Act in certain circumstances, including upon a demand of
certain of the Stockholders.
The Investor Stockholders Agreement (other than the registration rights
provisions) will terminate (unless earlier terminated as specified in the
Investor Stockholders Agreement) upon the earlier of (i) May 22, 2007 and (ii)
completion of an IPO.
CONSULTING AGREEMENT
During 1998, Mr. Gossett was engaged by Scotsman to assist with mergers
and acquisitions, real estate project management, strategic initiatives and
other general busines services. As compensation for these services, Mr. Gossett
received $120,000 for the year ended December 31, 1998. Mr. Gossett currently
serves as the Chairman of the Company's Board of Directors.
