1. Description of Business
 
  Anthony Crane Rental, L.P. (the "Partnership"), and its subsidiaries are
engaged in the rental of cranes and other heavy equipment primarily for
industrial maintenance and construction to a variety of companies in the
petrochemical, paper, steel, utility, mining and multiple other industries.
The Partnership provides twenty-four hour service, seven days a week to
customers principally in the United States. The Partnership also sells new and
used equipment to commercial construction, industrial and residential users.
Effective July 22, 1998, as part of the Company's Recapitalization (see Note
4), the Company became 99% directly-owned by Anthony Crane Rental Holdings,
L.P., (Holdings) (a former subsidiary of the Company which has no current
operations other than through the Company).
 
2. Basis of Presentation
 
  The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Partnership and all of its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
 The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Anthony Crane
Rental, L.P. have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Rule 10-01 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. During interim periods, the
Partnership follows the accounting policies set forth in its Annual Report on
10-K (the "Form 10-K") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Users of financial information produced for interim periods are encouraged to
refer to the footnotes contained in the Form 10-K when reviewing interim
financial results.
 
  In the opinion of management, all adjustments which are of a normal and
recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations
of these interim periods have been included. The net loss for the quarter
ended March 31, 1999 is not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full fiscal year. The Management Discussion and Analysis,
which follows these notes, contains additional information on the results of
operations and financial position of the Company. These comments should be
read in conjunction with these financial statements.

4. Recapitalization
 
  On June 1, 1998, the Partnership entered into a recapitalization agreement
with Bain/ACR, L.L.C. (Bain), pursuant to which Bain and certain members of
senior management of the Partnership (collectively the "Equity Investors")
indirectly acquired through Holdings an 82% ownership interest in the
Partnership (the

"Recapitalization"). Effective July 22, 1998, the Recapitalization was
consummated and the Partnership incurred new debt obligations, repaid its
outstanding Senior Notes and Credit Agreement obligations restructured certain
of its outstanding Partnership interests and distributed approximately $122.3
million in cash and property with a net book value of approximately $3.6
million to the Predecessor Partners. In connection with the repayment of its
outstanding debt obligations, the Partnership incurred approximately $15.1
million in prepayment penalties and wrote-off deferred financing costs of
approximately $0.8 million which were reflected as an extraordinary item in
the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 1998.
 
  The Recapitalization was funded by: (i) a notes offering by the Company with
gross proceeds of $155 million, (ii) a discount debentures offering by
Holdings with proceeds of $25 million (iii) a $33.6 million contribution by
the Equity Investors, (iv) $125 million of borrowings by the Company under a
revolving credit facility of a new senior credit facility and (v) $50 million
of borrowings by the Company under the term loan facility of a new senior
credit facility. In addition, as part of the Recapitalization considerations,
Holdings distributed $22.5 million of Senior Preferred Units to the
Predecessor Partners.
 
  The Recapitalization Agreement provided for an adjustment of the
distribution made to the Predecessor Partners based on consolidated net worth
(as defined in the Recapitalization Agreement), as of the closing date. The
amount of the adjustment has not yet been determined. Of the total
distribution made to the Predecessor Partners, $4 million is being maintained
in an escrow account in connection with resolution of the final adjustment and
certain indemnification provisions for the benefit of the Company pursuant to
the Recapitalization Agreement (refer to Note 10).

  (A) The Senior Notes of $155 million were issued in connection with the
Recapitalization (see Note 4) and will mature on August 1, 2008. Interest on
the Senior Notes accrues at the rate of 10 3/8% per annum from the issue date
and is payable semi-annually.
 
  The Senior Notes are not redeemable prior to August 1, 2003. Thereafter, the
Senior Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company at
premium percentages ranging between approximately 105% and 102% (based on the
year of redemption) if redeemed after August 1, 2003, but before August 1,
2006. Subsequent to August 1, 2006, the Senior Notes may be redeemed at no
premium to the Company. Not withstanding the foregoing, at any time prior to
August 1, 2001, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem a total of
up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes originally
issued under the Senior Note Indenture at a redemption price of approximately
110 3/8% of the principal if that redemption is paid for with the proceeds of
an equity offering.

                                (In thousands)
 
  The Senior Note Indenture contains certain restrictive covenants that limit,
among other things, the ability of the Company to make distributions, incur
additional indebtedness, consolidate or sell substantially all of its assets,
and enter into transactions with related parties.
 
  (B) The Senior Credit Facilities consist of a $275.0 million six-year non-
amortizing Revolving Credit Facility and a $50.0 million eight-year non-
amortizing Term Loan. The Revolving Credit Facility is available on a
revolving basis subject to a borrowing base during the period commencing on
the date of the Closing of the Recapitalization (July 22, 1998) and ending on
the date that is six years after the date of the Closing. At the Company's
option, loans made under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at either
(i) the Base Rate (defined as the highest of the rate of interest announced
publicly by Fleet National Bank from time to time as its prime rate or the
Federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%) plus a margin of
1.25%, subject to adjustment based on a leverage test, or (ii) the reserve-
adjusted London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBO") plus a margin of 2.25%,
subject to adjustment based on a leverage test. The Term Loan bears interest,
at the Company's option, at either (i) the Base Rate plus a margin of 1.75%,
or (ii) the reserve-adjusted LIBO rate plus a margin of 2.75%.
 
  Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time
until six years after the closing of the Senior Credit Facilities. The Term
Loan may be repaid at any time but is subject to certain call protections and
must be repaid in full eight years after the closing of the Senior Credit
Facilities.
 
  The Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a first-priority perfected lien,
and the Term Loan is secured by a second-priority perfected lien, on all
partnership interests of the Company and all property and assets (tangible and
intangible) of the Company and each of its material subsidiaries, including,
without limitation, all intercompany indebtedness, and all capital stock (or
similar equity interests owned by the Company) of each of the Company's direct
and indirect material subsidiaries, whenever acquired and wherever located;
provided, however, that no more than 65% of the capital stock or similar
equity interests of non-U.S. subsidiaries, if any, will be required to be
pledged as security in the event that a pledge of a greater percentage would
result in increased tax or similar liabilities for the Company and its
subsidiaries on a consolidated basis or would violate applicable law.
 
  The Senior Credit Facilities provide for mandatory repayments, subject to
certain exceptions, of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan based
on certain net asset sales outside the ordinary course of business of the
Company and its subsidiaries and the net proceeds of certain debt and equity
issuances. Outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term
Loan (subject to certain call provisions) are voluntarily pre-payable without
penalty; provided, however, that LIBO breakage costs, if any, shall be borne
by the Company. The Senior Credit Facilities contain certain restrictive
covenants; the most restrictive of which include financial ratios.
 
  The obligations of the Company under the Senior Notes and Senior Credit
Facilities are guaranteed on a full, unconditional joint and several basis, by
all material existing, direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries of the
Company and will be guaranteed by all material future, direct and indirect
domestic and foreign subsidiaries of the Company.
 
  (C) In connection with the acquisition of Husky Crane, Inc. ("Husky Crane")
(see Note 6) the Company assumed certain liabilities. Among these liabilities,
were various notes payable with maturity dates ranging from March 2000 to
January 2004 and with interest rates ranging from 7.39% to 9.75%. The Company
plans to refinance the acquired notes with borrowings from the Senior Credit
Facility. Accordingly, the entire balance of the notes are classified as
noncurrent liabilities.

6. Business Acquisitions
 
  On March 31, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding common stock
of Husky Crane, Inc. and certain assets of Paradise Equipment Company, L.P., a
limited partnership in which the 100% stockholder of Husky Crane is the
majority partner, as well as certain other assets owned personally by this
stockholder. The Company also assumed certain liabilities of Husky Crane. The
purchase price for the acquisition at closing was approximately $8.5 million
in cash with an additional payment of $500 payable to the seller contingent
upon the satisfaction of certain defined criteria. Management believes that it
is probable that the seller will satisfy the defined criteria and accordingly,
the Company has included the $500 payable to the seller as part of the
purchase price.
 
  The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
and, accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets
acquired, principally consisting of equipment, based on their estimated fair
values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill in the amount of $1.3 million was
recorded as a result of the acquisition and will be amortized over five years.
 
  The operating results of the acquisition will be included in the
Partnership's consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.
Certain required pro forma financial information related to the above
acquisition has not been presented since the acquisition was not material to
the Partnership's consolidated financial position or its consolidated results
of operations.
 
7. Lease Commitments
 
  In April 1997, the Partnership entered into a capital lease agreement for
the lease of twenty trucks. The lease has a term of three years with a bargain
purchase option at the end of the lease agreement. Interest rates under the
capital lease agreement range from approximately 19% to 22%.
 
  In connection with the acquisition of Husky Crane (See Note 6), the
Partnership assumed obligations related to three capital leases.

  Included in rental equipment is cost and accumulated depreciation for these
leased assets of approximately $3,795 and $286, respectively, at March 31,
1999 and $1,035 and $215, respectively, at December 31, 1998.
 
8. Contingencies
 
  The Company is the defendant in a lawsuit by its former insurance carrier
who has asserted a claim for premiums allegedly due on a contract of insurance
in the amount of approximately $455. The Company has denied any liability and
intends to vigorously defend the claim.
 
  Additionally, the Company is the defendant in a lawsuit asserting breach of
contract and tort claims arising out of allegations the Company did not timely
deliver certain used equipment that the customer contracted to buy from the
Company. The Company has denied any liability and intends to vigorously defend
the claims.
 
  The Company is also the defendant in a lawsuit resulting from negotiations
in connection with a proposed acquisition in which the potential seller is
seeking contractual damages in the amount of $3 million plus other
consequential damages that may be proved at trial for breach of contract and
the confidentiality provisions in a letter of intent executed between the
parties. The Company has denied any liability and intends to vigorously defend
the claims.
 
  The Company is a party to a number of other lawsuits and claims arising out
of the usual course of business.
 
  While the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the
opinion of management upon advice of counsel, any liability resulting
thereunder will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business
or financial condition, after giving effect to provisions already recorded.
However, there can be no assurance that an adverse outcome in one or more of
these matters will not be material to results of operations in any one period.
Additionally, certain of these matters are covered by the indemnity from the
Predecessor Partners.
 
  The Partnership is currently investigating soil and groundwater
contamination at its Savannah, Georgia location from underground storage tanks
removed in 1994. Clean up activities associated with the contamination

are covered under the Georgia Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund (GUST).
While the ultimate costs of any remediation or continued monitoring are not
yet known, the Partnership expects that it will receive reimbursement for such
costs from the GUST. The reimbursement limit under GUST is $1 million. The
Partnership believes that it is unlikely that its costs will exceed the
reimbursement limit.
 
  The Company has received a proposed assessment from a local taxing authority
in the amount of $8.6 million, including interest and penalties of $1.9
million and $1.3 million, respectively, as a result of a local sales and use
tax audit. Upon review of the assessment, management has identified a
significant amount that it believes was calculated by assessing duplicate tax
on specific cranes. The Company has recorded a liability of approximately $3.2
million at December 31, 1998 and March 31, 1999 for such tax liabilities.
Management is presently negotiating its liability with the respective local
taxing authority and believes there is a reasonable possibility that the final
tax assessment will exceed the amount presently recorded.
 
9. Subsidiary Guarantors
 
  All of the Company's subsidiaries are wholly owned and all of the
outstanding debt under the Company's Senior Notes and Senior Credit Facility
are guaranteed on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis by all of
these subsidiaries (the "Guarantor Subsidiaries"). The following summarized
financial information presents the financial position for the Company and
Guarantor Subsidiaries as of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998 and the
results of operations and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March
31, 1999 and 1998. Separate financial statements of the Guarantor Subsidiaries
have not been presented because management believes they are not material to
investors.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
     CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
 Results of Operations
 Quarter Ended March 31, 1999 Compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 1998
 
  Equipment Rental Revenues. Revenues from equipment rentals increased $2.7
million, or 6.2%, to $46.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as
compared to $43.6 million for the same period in the prior year. This increase
was largely due to the continued growth at the Company's existing yards,
reflecting the impact of the equipment purchased in 1998 and continued growth
in the operations in California which are beginning to reach targeted
operating levels. Equipment rental revenues for the quarter ended March 31,
1999 were negatively impacted by the delay of several industrial maintenance
projects in the Company's central region. The Company expects that these
projects will be completed in the second or third quarter of 1999.
 
  Equipment Sales. Revenues from equipment sales decreased $2.3 million, or
46.9%, to $2.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as compared to
$4.9 million for the same period in the prior year. This decrease was
attributable to the Company's decision to reduce sales of used equipment in
connection with its fleet management program as well as a slowdown in new
equipment sales. Management expects to see an increase in activity in new
equipment sales throughout the remainder of the year.
 
  Total Revenues. Based on the foregoing, total revenues increased $.4
million, or 1.0%, to $48.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as
compared to $48.5 million for the same period in the prior year.
 
  Gross Profit. Gross profit from equipment rentals remained relatively
consistent, decreasing $.2 million, or 1.2% to $16.6 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1999 as compared to $16.8 million for the same period in the
prior year. This decrease was primarily the result of an increase in
depreciation, salaries and wages and associated employee benefit costs. As a
percent of equipment rental revenues, gross profit from equipment rentals
decreased to 35.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as compared to 38.5%
for the same period in the prior year. This decrease in gross profit margin is
primarily attributable to the increased operating costs discussed above. Gross
profit margin from equipment rental was also negatively impacted by the delay
of the industrial projects, which generally produce larger profit margins.
 
  Gross profit from equipment sales remained consistent, totaling $.8 million
for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. As a percent of equipment
sales revenues, gross profit increased to 31.0% for the quarter ended March
31, 1999 as compared to 16.0% for the same period in the prior year. The
increase in the gross margin percentage was due to the sale of certain used
equipment during the quarter ended March 31, 1999, which generated unusually
large margins.
 
  Based on the foregoing, total gross profit remained relatively constant,
decreasing from $17.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998 compared to
$17.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999.
 
  Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $.2 million, or 2.1%, to $9.6 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to $9.4 million for the same period
in the prior year. As a percent of total revenues, selling, general and
administrative expenses remained relatively consistent, totaling, 19.6% for
the quarter ended March 31, 1999 as compared to 19.4% for the same period in
the prior year.
 
  Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization. EBITDA (as
defined to exclude net gains on sales of used equipment) increased $.6
million, or 4.3%, to $14.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999,
compared to $13.9 million for the same period in the prior year. EBITDA from
equipment rentals (as defined to equal revenues from equipment rentals, less
cost of equipment rentals, less selling, general and administrative expenses,
plus depreciation and amortization) increased $.9 million, or 6.6%, to $14.5
million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, compared to $13.6 million for
the same period in the prior year. As a percent
 
                                      15
<PAGE>
 
of rental revenues, EBITDA from rental operations remained constant, totaling
31.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, compared to 31.2% for the same
period in the prior year.
 
  Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $4.6 million, or 109.5%, to
$8.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 compared to $4.2 million for
the same period in the prior year. This increase reflected the higher level of
borrowings outstanding attributable to the Company's recapitalization
transaction consummated in July 1998 as well as the Company's continued
investment in rental equipment and the opening of new yards.
 
  Other (Income) Expense, Net. Other income decreased $.7 million, or 100.0%,
from $.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. This decrease is
primarily attributable to the sale of property and other asset dispositions
(excluding used rental equipment) in the quarter ended March 31, 1998, which
generated income of approximately $.6 million. No such asset dispositions
occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 1999.
 
  Net (Loss) Income. Net Income decreased $5.6 million, or 123.5% to a net
loss of $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999, compared to net
income of $4.5 million for the same period in the prior year as a result of
the factors discussed above.
 
 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
  Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter ended March 31,
1999 decreased from $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1998, to a
use of cash by operations of $7.6 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1999. This decrease was primarily the result of a decrease in net income as
well as an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in certain
liabilities.
 
  During the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company's principal
uses of cash for investing activities were for capital expenditures, including
expenditures for rental equipment. Total capital expenditures were $21.7
million and $22.1 million, respectively. Included in these totals were
expenditures for rental equipment totaling $19.4 million and $16.4 million,
respectively. These expenditures were made to increase the Company's total
investment in the rental fleet and to replace sold used rental equipment.
 
  Net cash provided by financing activities during the quarter ended March 31,
1999 was $33.3 million, an increase of 194.6%, compared to $11.3 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The increase in net cash provided by
financing activities was due to an increase in net borrowings to fund capital
expenditures.
 
  The Company has no long-term minimum purchase commitments for rental
equipment. Management has budgeted $85 million for gross fleet capital
expenditures for 1999, exclusive of acquisitions, to be used to replace rental
equipment sold as well as increases in the total investment in the fleet.
These expenditures will be offset by expected proceeds from the sale of used
equipment of approximately $25 million. The Company also expects to spend
approximately $8 million in 1999 on non-rental related capital expenditures
consisting of support equipment, buildings, land, furniture and fixtures and
machinery and tools. In addition to the budgeted capital expenditures, the
Company is currently considering several potential acquisitions. In the
quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company incurred approximately $.8
million related to a sale/leaseback transaction entered into in December 1996.
This transaction will require annual payments of approximately $3.1 million
through January 2004.
 
  In connection with the Recapitalization, the Company incurred significant
amounts of debt with interest and principal payments on the Senior Notes and
under the Senior Credit Facilities representing significant obligations of the
Company. The Company's liquidity needs relate to working capital, debt
service, capital expenditures and potential acquisitions.
 
  The Company intends to fund its working capital, capital expenditures and
debt service requirements through cash flows generated from operations and
borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities. The Senior Credit Facilities
consist of a $275.0 million, non-amortizing revolving Credit Facility of which
a net amount of
 
                                      16
<PAGE>
 
$183.0 million was drawn at March 31, 1999, and a $50.0 million non-amortizing
Term Loan. Amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility are available on a
revolving basis during the period commencing on July 22, 1998 (the date of the
closing) and ending on the sixth anniversary of the closing.
 
  The Senior Credit Facilities, the Senior Notes and the Discount Debentures
contain certain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the
Company to: (i) make distributions, redeem partnership interests or make
certain other restricted payments or investments other than distributions to
pay taxes; (ii) incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred equity
interests; (iii) merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its
assets; (iv) create liens on assets; and (v) enter into certain transactions
with affiliates or related persons. In addition, the Senior Credit Facilities
require the Company to maintain specific financial ratios and tests, among
other obligations, including a minimum interest coverage ratio. At March 31,
1999, the Company was in full compliance with the financial covenants and
expects to remain in compliance for the foreseeable future, including with
respect to the minimum interest coverage ratio.
 
 Current Developments
 
  On March 31, 1999, the Company completed the purchase of all of the
outstanding common stock of Husky Crane, Inc., (Husky Crane) and certain
assets of Paradise Equipment Company, L.P. a limited partnership in which the
100% stockholder of Husky Crane is the majority partner, as well as certain
other assets owned personally by this stockholder. The purchase price
consisted of approximately $8.5 million cash at closing plus the assumption of
certain liabilities. Husky Crane operated two rental yards in California. The
Company used borrowings under its Revolving Credit Agreement to fund the
transaction.
 
 Impact of Year 2000 Issue
 
  The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs being written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the
Company's computer programs or hardware that have date sensitive software or
embedded chips may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than
the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations
causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary
inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage in similar normal
business activities.
 
  Based on prior assessments, the Company determined that its information
technology systems required modification or replacement of portions of
hardware and software so that those systems would properly utilize dates
beyond December 31, 1999. The Company utilized both internal and external
resources to reprogram, or replace, test and implement the software and
hardware for Year 2000 modifications. The total cost of the Year 2000 project,
which was completed in 1998, was approximately $650,000 and was funded through
operating cash flows. The majority of the costs incurred were capitalized.
With the completion of the Year 2000 project, management now believes that its
internal information technology systems are Year 2000 compliant.
 
  The Company is also evaluating the Year 2000 compliance programs of its
critical customers, suppliers and service providers in an attempt to determine
the adequacy of their programs in addressing the Year 2000 issue. A failure by
a critical supplier or group of critical customers could negatively impact
sales, profits and cash flows. The Company believes that the formulation of
contingency plans will help mitigate exposure and losses should such a failure
occur. Such risks are further mitigated by the Company's diverse customer
base. However, because the Company's overall Year 2000 compliance is
contingent upon the readiness of its critical vendors and customers, there can
be no assurance that the Company's Year 2000 compliance programs will
adequately address Year 2000 issues not under its direct control.

management. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans",
"believes", "estimates" and variations of such words and similar expressions
are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, and are subject to the safe harbor created
thereby. These statements are based on a number of assumptions that could
ultimately prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that
such statements will prove to be accurate. Factors which could affect actual
future results include the developments relating to the state and local sales
and use tax audit and other claims related to investigations or lawsuits. Such
factors also include the possibility that increased demand or prices for the
Company's services may not occur or continue, changing economic and
competitive conditions, technological risks and other risks, changing
governmental regulations (including environmental rules and regulations) and
other risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in the Company's

                                    PART II
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
  The Company is the defendant in a lawsuit by its former insurance carrier
who has asserted a claim for premiums allegedly due on a contract of insurance
in the amount of approximately $455,000. The Company has denied any liability
and intends to vigorously defend the claim.
 
  Additionally, the Company is the defendant in a lawsuit asserting breach of
contract and tort claims arising out of allegations the Company did not timely
deliver certain used equipment that the customer contracted to buy from the
Company. The Company has denied any liability and intends to vigorously defend
the claims.
 
  The Company is also the defendant in a lawsuit resulting from negotiations
in connection with a proposed acquisition in which the potential seller is
seeking contractual damages in the amount of $3 million plus other
consequential damages that may be proved at trial for breach of contract and
the confidentiality provisions in a letter of intent executed between the
parties. The Company has denied any liability and intends to vigorously defend
the claims.
 
  The Company is a party to a number of other lawsuits and claims arising out
of the usual course of business.
 
  While the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters, in the
opinion of management upon advice of counsel, any liability resulting
thereunder will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business
or financial condition after giving effect to provisions already recorded.
However, there can be no assurance that an adverse outcome in one of more of
these matters will not be material to results of operations in any one period.
Additionally, certain of these matters are covered by the indemnity from the
Predecessor Partners, as described below.
 
 Environmental, Health and Safety Matters
 
  The Company and its operations are subject to federal, state and local
environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations,
including laws and regulations governing petroleum storage, waste water
discharge, underground storage tanks, hazardous chemical reporting and
hazardous waste disposal. Based upon the findings of an environmental
assessment conducted in connection with the Recapitalization, the Company
believes it is in material compliance with such requirements. The Company
spent approximately $100,000 in 1998 to close and upgrade certain underground
storage tanks to comply with the U.S. EPA 1998 deadline for attaining certain
technical standards for such tanks. The Company does not anticipate any
material capital expenditures in 1999 for environmental controls. The
enactment of more stringent laws or regulations or stricter interpretation of
existing laws and regulations could require additional expenditures by the
Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
financial condition and results of operations.
 
  Like all businesses, the Company is subject to liability for the
investigation and remediation of environmental contamination (including
contamination caused by other parties) at the properties it owns or operates
and at other properties where the Company or its predecessors have arranged
for the disposal of hazardous substances. While management is not aware of any
current matters, there is no assurance that the Company will not be subject to
such matters in the future, and the amount of such liability could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations.
 
  The Company is currently investigating and delineating soil and groundwater
contamination at its Savannah, Georgia location that resulted from former
gasoline underground storage tanks that were removed in 1994. These activities
are being conducted under the oversight of the Georgia Department of Natural
Resources. Following
 
                                      19

delineation, either active remediation or continued monitoring of
contamination will likely be required. The cost of such work is not yet known,
but the Company expects that it will receive reimbursement for such costs from
the Georgia Underground Storage Tank Trust Fund. To date, the Company has been
approved for reimbursement for $80,000 to delineate the contamination. The
reimbursement limit under the Trust Fund is $1 million. The Company believes
that it is unlikely that its costs will exceed the reimbursement limit.
 
 Recapitalization
 
  In connection with the Recapitalization, the Predecessor Partners have
agreed to indemnify the Company for matters that breach certain
representations and warranties set forth in the Recapitalization Agreement.
Such indemnification is limited to claims submitted within four years
following the Recapitalization, subject to a $1.6 million deductible and a $16
million cap, when aggregated with other indemnified matters. There can be no
assurance that the Predecessor Partners will have the ability to fulfill their
indemnification obligations if called upon to do so by the Company.
 
 Sales and Use Tax
 
  The Company is currently under audit for certain state and local sales and
use tax liabilities and has received a proposed assessment from a local taxing
authority in the amount of $8.6 million. Upon review of this assessment,
management has identified a significant amount it believes was calculated by
assessing duplicate tax on specific cranes. The Company has recorded a
liability of approximately $3.2 million at December 31, 1998 and March 31,
1999, for such tax liabilities. Management is presently negotiating its
liability with the respective local taxing authority and believes there is a
reasonable possibility that the final tax assessment may exceed the amount
presently recorded.
 
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
 
  On April 29, 1999, Mr. Ray G. Anthony resigned his positions as chairman of
the board of managers of ACR Management, L.L.C., the general partner of
Holdings, and CEO of Holdings and the Company. The Company gratefully
acknowledges the crucial role Mr. Anthony has played in creating, building and
sustaining Anthony Crane Rental over the past 30 years. The management team
and the board of managers are pleased to accept his ongoing guidance as a
member of the board and wish him the best of luck in his new endeavors.
 
  On that date, Mr. Anthony and certain other parties entered into a
Registration and Amendment Agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Anthony
resigned as an employee and retained his membership on the board of managers.
In addition, pursuant to the agreement, the Predecessor Partners were paid
$1.3 million, representing an adjustment to the distribution amount paid in
connection with the Recapitalization, and $3.8 million of proceeds escrowed in
connection with the Recapitalization were released to the Predecessor
Partners.
