NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


(5) COMPREHENSIVE INCOME:

    Pursuant to the provisions of SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
    Income", comprehensive income includes all changes in shareholders' equity
    during a period, except those resulting from investment by and distributions
    to shareholders. Components of comprehensive income include net income,
    changes in foreign currency translation adjustments and changes in the fair
    value of cash flow hedges (net of tax). Total comprehensive income was $11.1
    million and $63.8 million for the three and six months ended March 30, 2001,
    respectively; and $20.6 million and $60.1 million for the three and six
    months ended March 31, 2000, respectively.


(6) ACCOUNTING FOR DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:

    The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
    Hedging Activities", and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative
    Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement
    No. 133", on September 30, 2000. SFAS No. 133 requires the transition
    adjustment resulting from adopting these Statements to be reported in net
    income or other comprehensive income, as appropriate, as the cumulative
    effect of a change in accounting principle. In accordance with the
    transition provisions of SFAS No. 133, the Company recorded a cumulative
    transition adjustment to decrease Other Comprehensive Income by
    approximately $2.5 million (net of tax), to recognize the fair value of its
    derivative instruments as of the date of adoption.

    The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments, such as interest rate
    swaps and forward exchange contract agreements to manage changes in market
    conditions related to debt obligations and foreign currency exposures. As of
    March 30, 2001, the Company has $300 million of interest rate swap
    agreements fixing the rate on a like amount of variable rate borrowings.
    There were no material forward exchange contract agreements outstanding as
    of March 30, 2001.

    The Company recognizes all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value at
    the end of each quarter. Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is
    designated as and meets all the required criteria for a cash flow hedge are
    recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified into
    earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. Amounts
    reclassified into earnings related to interest rate swap agreements are
    included in interest expense. During the first six months of fiscal 2001,
    unrealized net losses of approximately $5.6 million (net of tax) related to
    interest rate swaps were recorded in Other Comprehensive Income, including
    the approximately $2.5 million cumulative transition adjustment as of
    September 30, 2000. As of March 30, 2001, approximately $5.6 million of net
    unrealized losses related to interest rate swaps was included in Accumulated
    Other Comprehensive Income, approximately $3.7 million of which is expected
    to be reclassified into earnings during the next twelve months. The hedge
    ineffectiveness for existing derivative instruments for the first six months
    of fiscal 2001 was not material.

    and acquisition related costs ($0.5 million), and the immaterial cumulative

(9)  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

     In September 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
     140, "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
     Extinguishments of Liabilities." SFAS No.140 replaces SFAS No. 125,
     "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
     Extinguishments of Liabilities." It revises the standards for accounting
     for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral
     and requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS No.
     125's provisions without reconsideration. SFAS No. 140 is generally
     effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and
     extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. The
     disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements for fiscal
     years ending after December 15, 2000. The Company does not expect the
     adoption of SFAS No. 140 to have a material impact on its present
     securitization activities.


(10) FINANCING ACTIVITIES:

     During the second quarter, the Company entered into an agreement (the
     "Receivables Facility") with several financial institutions whereby it
     sells on a continuous basis an undivided interest in all eligible trade
     accounts receivable, as defined. Pursuant to the Receivables Facility, the
     Company formed ARAMARK Receivables, LLC a wholly-owned, special purpose,
     bankruptcy-remote subsidiary. ARAMARK Receivables, LLC was formed for the
     sole purpose of buying and selling receivables generated by certain
     subsidiaries of the Company. Under the Receivables Facility, certain
     subsidiaries of the Company transfer without recourse all of their accounts
     receivable to ARAMARK Receivables, LLC. ARAMARK Receivables, LLC, in turn,
     has sold and, subject to certain conditions, may from time to time sell an
     undivided interest in these receivables up to $200 million. The Company has
     retained collection and administrative responsibility for the participating
     interests sold. The agreement expires in March 2004. This two-step
     transaction is accounted for as a sale of receivables following the
     provisions of SFAS No. 125. At March 30, 2001, $161 million of accounts
     receivable were sold and removed from the condensed consolidated balance
     sheet. The loss on the sale of receivables was $1.2 million and is included
     in "Interest and other financing costs, net."

     On March 30, 2001, the Company sold for cash, without recourse,
     approximately $24 million of notes receivable which resulted from sales of
     stock pursuant to the Company's stock ownership program. The sales price of
     $25.9 million resulted in a gain of approximately $1.5 million (net of
     transaction costs), which is included in "Interest and other financing
     costs, net."

     The proceeds from both the accounts receivable sale and the sale of notes
     receivable were used to repay borrowings under the credit facility.

     During the second quarter, ARAMARK Educational Resources, Inc. reduced its
     credit facility from $125 million to $25 million. The credit facility
     matures in August 2003. As of March 30, 2001, there were no borrowings
     under this facility. Additionally, the Company entered into a C$70 million
     Canadian revolving credit facility, which replaced its existing Canadian
     credit facility. The new Canadian credit facility currently matures in
     March 2002 and contains options to extend the maturity date.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND
        FINANCIAL CONDITION

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the business segment
information included in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements.

Overview

Sales of $1.9 billion for the second quarter and $3.8 billion for the six-month
period increased 8% and 9%, respectively, over the prior year periods. For both
the three and six month periods, sales increases in the Food and Support
Services, Uniform and Career Apparel - Rental and Educational Resources segments
were partially offset by a decline in sales in the Uniform and Career Apparel -
Direct Marketing segment. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, primarily in the
Food and Support Services segments, and the unfavorable impact of foreign
currency translation, sales for the three and six month periods increased 4% and
6% over the respective prior year periods. Operating income of $79.1 million for
the second quarter and $191.0 million for the six-month period increased 7% and
13%, respectively, compared to prior year. Excluding the impact of acquisitions
and foreign currency translation, operating income increased 6% and 12%,
respectively, for the three and six month periods. Higher unemployment levels in
the United States manufacturing and automotive sectors, along with increasing
energy costs adversely impacted the Company's second quarter results. The
operating margin for the six months increased to 5.0% from 4.8% due primarily to
the leveraging of fixed costs in the Food and Support Services - United States
segment. Interest and other financing costs, net for the three and six month
periods increased 13% and 16%, respectively over the prior year due primarily to
increased borrowing levels to fund acquisitions, stock repurchases and working
capital requirements. In the current year, interest and other financing costs
includes a loss on the sale of accounts receivable (approximately $1.2 million)
and a gain from the sale of employee stock loans (approximately $1.5 million) as
discussed in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Segment Results

Sales - Food and Support Services - United States segment sales for the three
and six months increased 9% and 11% over the prior year periods due to
acquisitions (approximately 6% and 7%, respectively), net new accounts
(approximately 2% and 1%, respectively) and increased volume (approximately 1%
and 3%, respectively). Softness in employment levels in the manufacturing and
automotive sectors slowed growth in the business services and vending markets,
while sales growth was strong in the correctional and healthcare markets. Sales
in the Food and Support Services - International segment increased 20% and 19%
(excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation) for the three
and six month periods due to net new accounts (approximately 11% and 10%,
respectively), increased volume (approximately 3% and 5%, respectively) and the
impact of the Campbell Bewley acquisition (approximately 6% and 4%,
respectively), with double-digit organic growth in the United Kingdom and
European markets. Sales in the Uniform and Career Apparel - Rental segment
increased 3% and 4%, respectively for the three and six month periods due to
increased volume (approximately 2% and 3%, respectively) and pricing
(approximately 1% and 1%, respectively). Sales growth in this segment has also
been impacted by softness in the manufacturing and automotive sectors. Uniform
and Career Apparel - Direct Marketing segment sales decreased 6% and 1% for the
three and six month periods due primarily to lower volume. The general softening
of the economy and a decrease in business spending has adversely impacted fiscal
2001 sales. In fiscal 2000 sales to the safety equipment and accessories market
were adversely impacted by the startup of a new distribution facility.
Educational Resources segment sales increased 7% and 9% for the three and six
month periods, respectively. Excluding the impact of the revenue accounting
change (see note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements), sales
increased 6% and 8%, compared to the prior year periods due primarily to new
locations (approximately 8% and 8%, respectively) and pricing (approximately 4%
and 5%, respectively), partially offset by lower enrollment at existing
locations (approximately 6% and 5%, respectively).

Operating Income - Food and Support Services - United States segment operating
income increased 19% and 29% for the three and six month periods. Excluding the
impact of acquisitions, operating income increased 14% and 24% over the prior
year periods due to the sales increases noted above and effective cost controls.
Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and an asset
sale gain in the prior year first quarter, Food and Support Services -
International segment operating income for the three and six month periods
increased 2% and 12%, respectively over the prior year due to the sales
increases noted above, partially offset in the second quarter by increased
infrastructure and acquisition integration costs in the UK and increased meat
costs in Germany due to the BSE and foot and mouth disease outbreaks in Europe.
Uniform and Career Apparel - Rental segment operating income increased 6% and 4%
over the prior year for the three and six month periods, respectively, due to
the sales increases noted above and the absence of garment manufacturing start
up costs incurred in the prior year, partially offset by increased fuel, energy
and other operating costs. Operating income in the Uniform and Career Apparel -
Direct Marketing segment for the second quarter decreased 9% compared to the
prior year due to decreased volume as noted above. For the six month period,
operating income increased 40% over the prior year as operating results in this
segment were adversely impacted in the prior year first quarter by start up
costs related to a new distribution facility. Educational Resources segment
operating income for the three and six month periods decreased 13% and 16%,
respectively from the prior year periods. Excluding the impact of the revenue
accounting change noted above, operating income for the three and six month
periods decreased 19% and 23%, respectively from the prior year. Operating
results continue to be adversely affected by reduced enrollment at mature
centers and continuing high labor and employee medical costs. It is anticipated
that reduced enrollment at mature centers may continue to adversely affect
results in this segment during the remainder of fiscal 2001.


FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY - Reference to the condensed consolidated
statement of cash flows on page 4 will facilitate understanding of the
discussion that follows.

Cash provided by operating activities for the six month period was $209 million
in fiscal 2001 and $120 million in fiscal 2000. Excluding proceeds from the
accounts receivable sale transaction (see Note 10), cash provided by operating
activities for fiscal 2001 was $48 million, reflecting growth in accounts
receivable due to increased sales and reduced current liabilities related to the
timing of certain payments such as taxes, commissions and stock repurchase
obligations. Debt decreased by $40 million during the six months ended March 30,
2001, primarily due to the accounts receivable sale transaction noted above,
partially offset by the impact of capital expenditures and the assumption of $21
million of indebtedness in connection with the Campbell Bewley transaction (see
Note 8).

During the first six months of fiscal 2001, the Company repurchased $64 million
of its Class B Common Stock, issuing $29 million in installment notes as partial
consideration. Additionally, the Company received approximately $32 million
(including proceeds from the sale of deferred payment obligations discussed in
Note 10) related to the issuance of Class B Common Stock through the exercise of
installment stock purchase opportunities. The Company has generally exercised
its option to repurchase Common Stock when shares have become available. The
amount of such repurchases and other liquidity needs, including those related to
employee benefit plans, in the near term will likely approximate or exceed the
fiscal 2000 level.

During the fiscal 2001 second quarter, the Company reduced the borrowing
capacity under the Educational Resources credit facility from $125 million to
$25 million and the Canadian credit facility from C$80 million to C$70 million,
and established a $200 million accounts receivable sale facility (see Note 10).
Currently, the Company has approximately $450 million of unused committed credit
availability under its credit facilities. Additionally, the Company has shelf
registration statements on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for
the issuance of up to $500 million of debt securities. The Company currently
expects to continue to fund acquisitions, capital expenditures and other
liquidity needs from cash provided from operating activities, normal disposals
of property and equipment and borrowings available under its credit facilities
or note issuances.
