CENTRAL PARKING CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Operating results for the three and six months ended March 31, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year
ending September 30, 1998. For further information, refer to the consolidated
financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended September 30, 1997
(included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K). Certain items have been
restated to conform to current year presentation.
Stock Split
On November 21, 1997, the Board of Directors approved a three-for-two
stock split payable to shareholders of record as of December 5, 1997. The stock
split was distributed on December 12, 1997, resulting in the net issuance of
8,771,363 new shares. All shares and per share amounts in this report have been
adjusted to reflect the stock split.
Earnings Per Share
In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share". Statement 128 replaced the previously reported primary and
fully diluted earnings per share with basic and diluted earnings per share.
Basic earnings per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income
available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock
were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of
common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity. Earnings per share
for all periods presented have been calculated and presented in accordance with
SFAS No. 128.
The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per
share:

</TABLE>
Weighted average common shares used for the computation of basic
earnings per share excludes certain common shares issued pursuant to the
Company's restricted stock plan because under the related deferred compensation
agreement the officer forfeits such shares if he voluntarily terminates his
employment with the Company. The effect of the conversion of the
company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of the subsidiary trust has
not been included in the diluted earnings per share calculation since such
securities are anti-dilutive. At March 31, 1998, such securities were
convertible into 2,000,000 shares of common stock.
Acquisitions
Central Parking System of Louisiana, Inc.
The Company has historically owned 50% of Central Parking System of
Louisiana, Inc. ("CPS of LA") and on March 30, 1998 purchased the remaining 50%
from Property Service Corporation for $2.4 million in common stock (52,631
shares). CPS of LA manages and operates leased parking facilities, manages and
operates parking facilities owned or leased by other parties, and provides
financial and other advisory services. The Company's facilities are located in
Louisiana. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and,
accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to CPS of LA's assets and
liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of
acquisition. Since only 50% of CPS of LA was owned during the periods presented,
the results of operations of CPS of LA have been accounted for on the Company's
books under the equity method as an investment for these periods. All subsequent
results of operations will be included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
Kinney System Holding, Corp.
On February 12, 1998, the Company purchased Kinney System Holding Corp.
("Kinney"), a privately-held parking company headquartered in New York City, for
$208.8 million, including $171.8 million in cash and other consideration, and
$37.0 million (882,422 shares) in common stock of the Company. In connection
with this transaction, the Company assumed $8.1 million in capitalized leases,
refinanced $24.2 million in existing Kinney debt and assumed $4.6 million of
Kinney debt. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the outcome of
an independent evaluation of Kinney's February 12, 1998 balance sheet. The
Company financed the Kinney Acquisition with borrowings under the New Credit
Facility described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase
method and, accordingly, the results of operations of Kinney have been included
in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
The preliminary purchase price has been allocated to Kinney's assets and
liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the date of
acquisition. The excess of the preliminary purchase price over fair value of the
net assets acquired of $188.6 million is being amortized on a straight-line
basis over 30 years. Purchase price adjustments for Kinney have not been
finalized.
Page 7 of 18
<PAGE> 8
Diplomat Parking Corporation
On October 1, 1997, the Company purchased Diplomat Parking Corporation
("Diplomat") for $21.7 million, which was financed through a $12.3 million draw
on a revolving credit facility and an $8.2 million note to the sellers, that was
subsequently paid, at an interest rate of 5%. The note payment was financed
through a draw on the revolving credit facility. Diplomat operates 164 parking
facilities, located primarily in Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, Maryland. The
transaction was accounted for using the purchase method and, accordingly, the
results of operations of Diplomat have been included in the Company's
consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The purchase
price has been allocated to Diplomat's assets and liabilities based on their
estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase
price over fair value of the net assets acquired of $20.3 million is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years.
Square Industries
On January 18, 1997, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares
of Square Industries, Inc. ("Square") for $54.8 million, including transaction
fees and other related expenses. In addition, the Company assumed $23.2 million
of existing Square debt. The purchase price was financed through a draw on the
Company's revolving credit facility. The Company also refinanced the debt
assumed from Square through a draw on the revolving credit facility.
The Square acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method and,
accordingly, the results of operations of Square have been included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The
purchase price has been allocated to Square's assets and liabilities based on
their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The excess of the
purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired of $27.8 million
is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 25 years.
Civic Parking, L.L.C.
On December 31, 1996, the Company purchased for cash, Civic Parking
L.L.C. ("Civic Parking"), a limited liability company, which owns four parking
garages in St. Louis: Kiener East, Kiener West, Stadium East and Stadium West.
The four garages, which had previously been operated by the Company under
management agreements, have a total of 7,464 parking spaces. The purchase price
was approximately $91.0 million, which was financed through working capital and
a draw of $67.2 million on the Company's revolving credit facility. The
transaction was accounted for under the purchase method. The estimated fair
value of the garages at the date of the acquisition was equal to the purchase
price and, accordingly, management has allocated the purchase price to the land
and buildings acquired.
On April 16, 1997, the Company sold 50% of the membership units of
Civic Parking to an affiliate of Equity Capital Holdings, L.L.C. for $46.0
million in cash. In the allocation of the purchase price, the Company assigned
$45.8 million to the membership units that were sold; consisting of an estimated
sale price of $46.0 million and estimated net cash inflows for the holding
period of $638 thousand offset by interest on incremental debt during the
holding period of $801 thousand. The membership units retained by the Company
have been accounted for in the accompanying financial statements under the
equity method and are included in the Company's consolidated financial
statements.
On March 17, 1998, the Company refinanced the Civic Parking, L.L.C.
with a financial institution for $60 million. The Company received net proceeds
of $30.0 million from this transaction which reduced the Company's investment in
partnerships and joint ventures. The proceeds from the refinancing were used to
pay down the New Credit Facility mentioned below. The Company will continue to
operate these garages pursuant to a lease and operating agreement with Civic
Parking, L.L.C.
Pro Forma Information
The following unaudited consolidated pro forma condensed results of operations,
give effect to the acquisition of Kinney System Holding, Corp and Central
Parking System of Louisiana, Inc. as if such transactions had occurred at
October 1, 1997, as follows (in thousands except for earnings per share):
<TABLE>

</TABLE>
Page 8 of 18
<PAGE> 9
The foregoing unaudited proforma amounts are based upon certain
assumptions and estimates, including, but not limited to, the recognition of
estimated cost savings related to general and administrative expenses to be
eliminated prospectively in connection with the Kinney acquisition, interest
expense on debt incurred to finance the acquisition and amortization of goodwill
over 30 years. The unaudited proforma amounts do not necessarily represent the
results, which would have occurred if the acquisition had taken place on the
basis assumed above, nor are they indicative of the results of future combined
operations.
Long Term Debt
On February 11, 1998, the Company established a new credit facility
(the "New Credit Facility") providing for an aggregate availability of up to
$300 million, consisting of a five-year $200 million revolving credit facility,
including a sub-limit of $25 million for standby letters of credit, and a $100
million term loan. The New Credit Facility bears interest until June 30, 1998 at
a rate of LIBOR plus 1.25%. On June 30, 1998 the interest rate on the New Credit
Facility and the commitment fee on the unused portion will revert to a grid
pricing based upon the achievement of various financial ratios. The New Credit
Facility contains certain covenants including those that require the Company to
maintain certain financial ratios, restrict further indebtedness, and limit the
amount of dividends payable. On March 18, 1998, the Company completed offerings
of equity and convertible trust issued preferred securities, from which the
Company obtained $195.3 million in net proceeds. The Company repaid and
terminated the $100 million term loan with proceeds from these offerings. The
remaining $95.3 million in proceeds was applied to reduce the outstanding
balance under the $200 million revolving credit facility. The amount outstanding
under the Company's New Credit Facility as of March 31, 1998 is $58.6 million,
with a weighted average interest rate of 6.9% for the period the New Credit
Facility was outstanding. The Company used borrowings under the New Credit
Facility to replace the Company's prior revolving credit facility and to finance
the Kinney acquisition.
The prior credit facility, which was unsecured, was scheduled to expire
January 31, 2000. Credit available under the prior facility amounted to $120
million. The amount outstanding under the Company's prior credit facility was
$70.8 million, which is reflected as long term debt on the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 1997. Such debt had a
7.0% weighted average interest rate for the period from December 31, 1996 to
September 30, 1997 during which the Company had debt outstanding. At March 31,
1997, the Company had $131.8 million outstanding under its credit facility at an
interest rate of 7.0%. The weighted average balance outstanding was $113.7
million during the six months ended March 31, 1997 at an average interest rate
of 7.0%.
Convertible Trust Issued Preferred Securities and Equity Offerings
On March 18, 1998, the Company completed an offering of 2,137,500
shares of common stock. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of
$89.3 million. Concurrent with the common stock offering, the Company created
Central Parking Finance Trust ("Trust") which completed a private placement of
4,400,000 shares at $25.00 per share of 5.25% convertible trust issued preferred
securities ("Preferred Securities") pursuant to an exemption from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Preferred Securities represent
preferred undivided beneficial interests in the assets of Central Parking
Finance Trust, a statutory business trust formed under the laws of the State of
Delaware. The Company owns all of the common securities of the Trust. The Trust
exists for the sole purpose of issuing the Preferred Securities and investing
the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of 5.25% Convertible Subordinated
Debentures ("Convertible Debentures") of the Company due 2028. The net proceeds
to the Company from the Preferred Securities private placement were $106.0
million. Each Preferred Security is entitled to receive cumulative cash
distributions at an annual rate of 5.25% (or $1.312 per share) and will be
convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of Company common
stock at a conversion rate of 0.4545 shares of Company common stock for each
Preferred Security (equivalent to $55.00 per share of Company common stock),
subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Preferred Securities do not

of the Trust as company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of
subsidiary holding solely parent debentures.

Subsequent Events
On April 1, 1988, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets
of Turner Parking Systems, Inc, ("Turner") a privately-held parking company
headquartered in Dallas, Texas, for $3.8 million, including $3.0 million in cash
and $800 thousand (52,631 shares) in common stock of the Company. The Company
financed the cash portion of the Turner purchase with borrowings under the New
Credit Facility described above. Turner operates 34 parking facilities in Texas,
Florida, California, Georgia and Washington D.C.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
The Company provides parking services at multi-level parking facilities
and surface parking lots. It also provides parking consulting services, shuttle
services, valet services, parking meter enforcement services, and billing and
collection services. The Company distinguishes itself from its competitors by
combining a reputation for professional integrity and quality management with
operating strategies designed to increase the revenues of parking operations for
its clients. The Company's clients and landlords include some of the nation's
largest owners and developers of mixed-use projects, major office building
complexes, sports stadiums and hotels. Parking facilities operated by the
Company include, among others, certain terminals operated by BAA Heathrow
International Airport (London), the Prudential Center (Boston), Cinergy Field
(Cincinnati), Coors Field (Denver) and various parking facilities owned by the
Hyatt and Westin hotel chains, the Rouse Company, Faison Associates, May
Department stores, Equity Office Properties, and Crescent Real Estate.
The Company operates parking facilities under three types of arrangements:
- - Management contracts The Company's responsibilities under a management
contract as a facility manager include hiring, training, and staffing
parking personnel, and providing collections, accounting, record
keeping, insurance, and facility marketing services. In general, the
Company is not responsible for structural, mechanical, or electrical
maintenance or repairs, or providing security or guard services. The
Company generally receives a base monthly fee for managing these
facilities plus fees for ancillary services such as insurance,
accounting, equipment leasing, and consulting and often receives a
percentage of facility revenues above a base amount. Under the
Company's typical management contract, the facility owner pays a
minimum management fee and operating expenses such as taxes, license
and permit fees, insurance, payroll and accounts receivable processing,
and wages of personnel assigned to the facility. In addition, the
facility owner also pays for maintenance, repair costs, and capital
improvements. The typical management contract is for a term of one to
three years and is renewable, typically for successive one-year terms.
- - Lease contracts In contrast to management contracts, lease arrangements
are typically for terms of three to ten years, with a renewal term, and
provide for a contractually established payment for the facility owner,
regardless of operating earnings of the parking facility. The Company's
rent is generally a flat annual amount, a percentage of gross revenues,
or a combination thereof. Under its leases, the Company is responsible
for all facets of the parking operations, including utilities and
ordinary and routine maintenance, but is generally not responsible for
major maintenance, repair, or property taxes. The leased facilities
require a longer commitment and a larger capital investment by the
Company than managed facilities, but provides a more stable source of
revenue and a greater opportunity for long term revenue growth.
- - Facility ownership Ownership of parking facilities, either
independently or through joint ventures, typically requires a larger
capital investment than managed or leased facilities, but provides
maximum control over the operation of the parking facility. All owned
facility revenues flow directly to the Company. Additionally, ownership
provides the potential for realizing capital gains from the
appreciation of the value of underlying real estate. The Company
typically targets ownership opportunities in cities in which it
currently operates, focusing on unrelated sites that are being used as
parking facilities.
The Company also seeks joint venture partners who are established local
or regional developers pursuing financing alternatives for development projects.
Joint ventures typically involve a development where the parking facility is a
part of a larger multi-use project, allowing the Company's joint venture
partners to benefit from a capital infusion to the project. Joint ventures offer
the revenue growth potential of ownership with a partial reduction in capital
requirements.
Three Months Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1997
Parking revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1998 increased to
$76.5 million from $45.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1997, an
increase of $30.8 million, or 67.5%. Of the $30.8 million increase, $21.2
million, or 68.9% of the increase, resulted from the acquisitions of Square,
Diplomat and Kinney's 564 leased and owned locations. The remaining increase of
$9.6 million, or 31.1%, resulted from the net addition of 38 leased and owned
locations over the same quarter last year as well as a combination of rate
increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities.
Revenues from foreign operations increased to $5.4 million from $4.2 million, an
increase of $1.2 million or 29.8%. The increase in foreign revenues was a result
of a combination of the addition of 8 leased locations as well as rate increases
and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing facilities.
Page 11 of 18
<PAGE> 12
Management contract revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 1998
increased to $14.7 million from $10.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal
1998, an increase of $4.5 million or 43.7%. Of the $4.5 million increase, $1.8
million, or 41.1% of the increase, resulted from the addition of 155 management
locations through the acquisitions of Square, Diplomat and Kinney. The remaining
increase of $2.7 million, or 58.9% of the total increase, is attributed to the
net addition of 79 management contracts and increased management fees on
existing locations.
Cost of parking in fiscal second quarter 1998 increased to $65.9
million from $39.4 million in fiscal second quarter 1997, an increase of $26.5
million or 67.3%. Rent expense increased $18.3 million and payroll increased
$5.5 million, principally as a result of new locations from acquisitions and
increases on existing locations. Cost of parking as a percentage of parking
revenues, decreased to 86.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 1998 from 86.2% in
fiscal second quarter 1997. This decrease of 10 basis points was attributable
predominantly to the spreading of a number of fixed costs, over a larger revenue
base.
Cost of management contracts in fiscal second quarter 1998 increased to
$3.9 million from $3.2 million in the comparable period in 1997, an increase of
$700 thousand or 21.0%. The increase in cost reflects higher insurance claims
and employment taxes associated with the increase in the number of managed
facilities. Cost of management contracts as a percentage of management contract
revenue decreased to 26.3% for the second fiscal quarter 1998 from 31.2% for the
same period last year. The decrease as a percentage of management contract
revenue was attributable to the spreading of fixed costs over a larger revenue
base.
General and administrative expenses increased to $7.9 million for the
second quarter of fiscal 1998 from $6.0 million in fiscal second quarter 1997,
an increase of $1.9 million or 32.6%. The increase is primarily attributable to
the purchase of Kinney, Square and Diplomat and the increased administrative
activities associated with those acquisitions, as well as increased incentive
compensation resulting from increased profits and start-up costs associated with
the opening of new locations and joint ventures. General and administrative
expenses, as a percentage of revenues, were 8.7% for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 compared to 10.7% for the second quarter of fiscal 1997, a decrease
of 200 basis points. The decrease was attributable to spreading fixed expenses
over a broader base.
Goodwill and non-compete amortization for the second quarter of fiscal
1998 increased to $1.5 million from $235 thousand in fiscal second quarter 1997,
an increase of $1.3 million, as a result of the Kinney, Square and Diplomat
acquisitions.
Interest income increased to $613 thousand for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998, from $241 thousand in the second quarter of fiscal 1997, an
increase of $372 thousand. The increase in interest income is a result of higher
investment balances outstanding during the quarter and increased notes
receivable balances.
Interest expense increased to $3.3 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 from $1.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1997. The increase
in interest expense was attributable to the increase in indebtedness under the
Company's credit facilities. The weighted average balance outstanding under such
credit facilities was $151.8 million during the quarter ended March 31, 1998, at
a weighted average interest rate of 6.8%. The weighted average balance
outstanding was $114.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 1997, at an
average interest rate of 7.0%. Additionally, the Company recorded dividends on
Company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of a subsidiary trust in the
amount of $206 thousand during the quarter ended March 31, 1998.
Income taxes increased to $4.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal
1998 from $2.6 million in the second fiscal quarter in 1997, an increase of $1.4
million or 54.7%. The effective tax rate for the fiscal 1998 quarter was 38.7%
compared to 36.9% for the 1997 quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate
is attributable to a combination of decreasing interest income on tax-exempt
investments, an increase in non-tax deductible goodwill amortization and an
increase in effective state income tax rates.
Six Months Ended March 31, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended March 31, 1997
Parking revenues for the six months ending March 31, 1998 increased to
$135.5 million from $77.8 million in the six months ending March 31, 1997, an
increase of $57.7 million, or 74.2%. Of the $57.7 million increase, $40.7
million, or 70.4% of the increase, resulted from the acquisition of Square,
Diplomat and Kinney's 564 leased and owned locations. The remaining increase of
$17.0 million, or 29.6%, is a result of the net addition of 64 leased and owned
locations over the same period last year as well as a combination of rate
increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing
Page 12 of 18
<PAGE> 13
facilities. Revenues from foreign operations increased to $11.1 million from
$8.2 million, an increase of $2.9 million or 35.8%. The increase in foreign
revenues was a result of a combination of the addition of 16 leased locations as
well as rate increases and higher utilization of parking spaces at existing
facilities.
Management contract revenues for the six months ending March 31, 1998
increased to $26.9 million from $19.6 million in the six months ending March 31,
1997, an increase of $7.3 million or 37.4%. Of the $7.3 million increase, $3.1
million, or 41.9%, resulted from the addition of 155 management locations
through the acquisitions of Square, Diplomat and Kinney. The remaining increase
of $4.2 million, or 58.1%, is attributed to the net addition of 36 management
contracts and increased management fees on existing locations.
Cost of parking in the six months ending March 31, 1998 increased to
$117.8 million from $68.5 million in the six months ending March 31, 1997, an
increase of $49.3 million or 72.0%. Rent expense increased $30.4 million and
payroll increased $10.6 million, principally as a result of new locations from
acquisitions and increases on existing locations. Cost of parking as a
percentage of parking revenues, decreased to 86.9% in the six months ending
March 31, 1998 from 88.0% in the six months ending March 31, 1997. This decrease
of 110 basis points was attributable predominantly to greater economies of scale
resulting from synergies realized from recent acquisitions.
Cost of management contracts in the six months ending March 31, 1998
increased to $7.1 million from $5.7 million in the comparable period in 1997, an
increase of $1.4 million or 24.9%. The increase in cost reflects higher
insurance claims and employment taxes associated with the increase in the number
of managed facilities.
General and administrative expenses increased to $14.6 million for the
six months ending March 31, 1998 from $10.7 million in the six months ending
March 31, 1997, an increase of $3.9 million or 36.3%. The increase is primarily
attributable to increased incentive compensation resulting from increased
profits and start-up costs associated with the opening of new locations and
joint ventures. General and administrative expenses, as a percentage of
revenues, were 9.0% for the six months ending March 31, 1998 compared to 11.0%
for the six months ending March 31, 1997, a decrease of 200 basis points. The
decrease was attributable to spreading fixed expenses over a broader base and
the implementation of bonus limits on certain key executives.
Goodwill and non-compete amortization for the six months ended March
31, 1998 increased to $2.1 million from $235 thousand in the six months ended
March 31, 1997, an increase of $1.8 million, as a result of the Kinney, Square
and Diplomat acquisitions.
Interest income increased to $1.1 million for the six months ending
March 31, 1998, from $865 thousand in the six months ending March 31, 1997, an
increase in the amount of $244 thousand or 28.3%. The increase in interest
income is a result of higher investment balances outstanding during the
six-month period and increased notes receivable balances.
Interest expense increased to $4.8 million for the six months ending
March 31, 1998 from $1.3 million in the six months ending March 31, 1997. The
increase in interest expense was attributable to the increase in indebtedness
under the Company's credit facilities. The weighted average balance outstanding
under such credit facilities was $114.8 million during the six months ended
March 31, 1998, at a weighted average interest rate of 6.7%. The weighted
average balance outstanding was $113.7 million during the six months ended March
31, 1997, at an average interest rate of 7.0%. Additionally, the Company
recorded dividends on Company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of a
subsidiary trust in the amount of $206 thousand during the six months ended
March 31, 1998.
Income taxes increased to $7.4 million for the six months ending March
31, 1998 from $4.7 million in the six months ending March 31, 1997, an increase
of $2.7 million or 59.1%. The effective tax rate for the first six months of the
1998 fiscal year was 38.3% compared to 36.0% for the same period in 1997. The
increase in the effective tax rate is attributable to a combination of
decreasing interest income on tax-exempt investments, an increase in non-tax
deductible goodwill amortization and an increase in effective state income tax
rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the first six months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, the Company
generated cash flow from operating activities of $17.4 million and $2.7 million,
respectively, an increase of $14.7 million. The increase is primarily
attributable to increased net earnings of $3.7 million, increased depreciation
of $2.4 million, and increased changes in net operating assets and liabilities
of $8.1 million.
Page 13 of 18
<PAGE> 14
The Company utilized cash of $206.1 million, net of cash acquired, in
the first half of fiscal 1998 for acquisitions (see Acquisitions) compared to
$48.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 1997. The acquisitions were
funded from credit facilities described herein.
The Company purchased properties during the six months ended March 31,
1998, and 1997 in the amounts of $19.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively.
During the first half of the 1997 fiscal year, Civic Parking LLC ("Civic"),
which consists of four parking garages totaling approximately 7,500 parking
spaces, was acquired for $91.0 million. Of the $91.0 million, $45.8 million was
held for resale to a joint venture partner and $45.2 million was recorded as an
investment in joint ventures. The purchase was funded partially through
available cash and the drawing under a revolving credit facility in the amount
of $67.2 million. In April 1997, the Company sold 50% of its investment in Civic
for $46.0 million.
Acquisitions
Square Industries
On January 18, 1997, the Company completed its offer to acquire all the
outstanding shares of Square Industries, Inc. for $54.8 million, including
transaction fees and other related expenses. In addition, the Company assumed
$23.2 million of existing Square debt. The funds required for this acquisition
were drawn under a revolving credit facility.
Diplomat Parking Corporation
On October 1, 1997, Diplomat Parking Corporation was purchased for
$21.7 million. The purchase was financed through a $12.3 million draw on the
Company's revolving credit facility and an $8.2 million note payable to the
sellers, which was subsequently paid. The note payment was financed through the
revolving credit facility. Diplomat operated 164 parking facilities containing
approximately 37,000 parking spaces, located primarily in Washington D.C. and
Baltimore, Maryland.
Kinney System Holding Corp.
On February 12, 1998, the Company purchased Kinney System Holding Corp.
("Kinney"), a privately-held parking company headquartered in New York City, for
$208.8 million, including $171.8 million in cash and other consideration, and
$37.0 million (882,422 shares) in common stock of the Company. In connection
with this transaction, the Company assumed $8.1 million in capitalized leases,
refinanced $24.2 million in existing Kinney debt and assumed $4.6 of Kinney
debt. The purchase price is subject to adjustment based on the outcome of an
independent evaluation of Kinney's February 12, 1998 balance sheet. The Company
financed the Kinney Acquisition with borrowings under the New Credit Facility
described below. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method
and, accordingly, the results of operations of Kinney have been included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The
preliminary purchase price has been allocated to Kinney's assets and liabilities
based on their estimated fair market values at the date of acquisition. The
excess of the preliminary purchase price over fair value of the net assets
acquired of $188.6 million is being amortized on a straight-line basis over 30
years. Purchase price adjustments for Kinney have not been finalized.
Special Distribution by Joint Venture
In February 1998, the Company received a special joint venture
distribution of $30.3 million from Civic, as a result of $60.0 million of
financing incurred by Civic. The Company does not expect such distributions to
occur in the future.
New Credit Facility
On February 11, 1998, the Company established a new credit facility
providing for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, consisting of a
five-year $200 million revolving credit facility, including a sub-limit of $25
million for standby letters of credit, and a $100 million term loan. The term
loan portion of the New Credit Facility was repaid with proceeds from the common
stock and Preferred Securities offerings described below. The New Credit
Facility bears
Page 14 of 18
<PAGE> 15
interest until June 30, 1998 at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.25%. On June 30, 1998
the interest rate on the New Credit Facility and the commitment fee on the
unused portion will revert to a grid pricing based upon the achievement of
various financial ratios. The New Credit Facility contains certain covenants
including those that require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios,
restrict further indebtedness, and limit the amount of dividends payable. The
amount outstanding under the Company's New Credit Facility as of March 31, 1998
is $58.6 million, with an interest rate of 6.9% for the period the New Credit
Facility was outstanding. The Company used borrowings under the New Credit
Facility to replace the Company's prior revolving credit facility and to finance
the Kinney acquisition.
The prior credit facility, which was unsecured, was scheduled to expire
January 31, 2000. Credit available under the prior facility amounted to $120
million. The amount outstanding under the Company's prior credit facility was
$70.8 million, which is reflected as long term debt on the accompanying
condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 1997. Such debt had a
7.0% weighted average interest rate for the period from December 31, 1996 to
September 30, 1997, during which the Company had debt outstanding. At March 31,
1997, the Company had $131.8 million outstanding under its credit facilities at
an interest rate of 7.0%. The weighted average balance outstanding was $113.7
million during the six months ended March 31, 1997 at an average interest rate
of 7.0%.
Convertible Trust Issued Preferred Securities and Equity Offerings
On March 18, 1998, the Company completed an offering of 2,137,500
shares of common stock. The Company received net proceeds from the offering of
$89.3 million. Concurrent with the common stock offering, the Company created
the Trust which completed a private placement of 4,400,000 shares at $25.00 per
share of 5.25% convertible trust issued preferred securities pursuant to an
exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The
Preferred Securities represent preferred undivided beneficial interests in the
assets of Central Parking Finance Trust, a statutory business trust formed under
the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company owns all of the common securities
of the Trust. The Trust exists for the sole purpose of issuing the Preferred
Securities and investing the proceeds thereof in an equivalent amount of 5.25%
Convertible Subordinated Debentures ("Convertible Debentures") of the Company
due 2028. The net proceeds to the Company from the Preferred Securities private
placement were $106.0 million. Each Preferred Security is entitled to receive
cumulative cash distributions at an annual rate of 5.25% (or $1.312 per share)
and will be convertible at the option of the holder thereof into shares of
Company common stock at a conversion rate of 0.4545 shares of Company common
stock for each Preferred Security (equivalent to $55.00 per share of Company
common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. The Preferred
Securities do not have a stated maturity date but are subject to mandatory
redemption upon the repayment of the Convertible Debentures at their stated
maturity (April 1, 2028) or upon acceleration or earlier repayment of the
Convertible Debentures. The proceeds of the equity and preferred security
offerings were used to repay indebtedness.
The Company's consolidated balance sheets reflect the Preferred Securities
of the Trust as company-obligated mandatorily redeemable securities of
subsidiary holding solely parent debentures.
