LOOMIS, FARGO & CO.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


September 30, 2000





NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION





The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles for interim financial information 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. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes of Loomis, Fargo & Co. (the Company) as of December 31,
1999 included in the Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2000. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.





Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the 2000 presentation.





NOTE 2 RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS





In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133). SFAS No. 133 requires that all derivatives be recognized as assets and liabilities and measured at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting
designation. In June 1999, the Financial Accounting Standards Board delayed the effective date of SFAS 133, requiring the Company to adopt SFAS 133 effective January 1, 2001. The Company does not anticipate that the new standard will have a material
impact on its financial statements.





In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements (SAB 101), which provides the staffs views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to selected revenue recognition issues. The new standard, which was adopted by the Company effective October 1, 2000, did not have a material impact
on these financial statements.





In March 2000, the FASB issued interpretation No. 44, Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock
Compensation, which poses and answers questions dealing with the application of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25). The Interpretation will be applied prospectively to new awards, modifications to outstanding awards, and changes in employee
status on or after July 1, 2000, with some exceptions. The adoption of this interpretation did not have a material impact on these financial statements.





NOTE 3 AMENDMENT TO CREDIT FACILITY





Prior to June 26, 2000, the Companys revolving bank credit facility included commitment reductions over the
final four years of the facility. On June 26, 2000, an amendment to the revolving bank credit facility was executed which removed all remaining commitment reductions and extended the termination date from January 2002 to April 2002, at a cost of $0.1
million.





NOTE 4 RESTRUCTURING EXPENSE





The Company restructured its operations from five divisions to four divisions during the second quarter of 2000.
The restructuring expense, approximately 69% of which has been paid, primarily relates to expenditures for severance pay to nine division employees whose positions were eliminated during the quarter.





4





NOTE 5 INCOME TAXES





The Company continually reviews the adequacy of the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets and reduced
the reserve by $1.2 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2000. The reduction resulted from a reassessment by the Company, which indicates that it is more likely than not that additional benefits will be realized. Of the total decrease, $0.8
million resulted in the reduction of goodwill related to purchase accounting and the remainder resulted in a reduction to income tax expense.





NOTE 6 SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMER





One of the Companys customers accounted for approximately 14% and 13% of the Companys consolidated
revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

Revenues.Revenues decreased by approximately $1.5 million (1.6%) for the three-month period ended
September 30, 2000 from last years corresponding period, and remained flat for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 from last years corresponding period.





6





The following table analyzes revenues by type of service. The increase in the armored transport services
represents additional customers being serviced as well as additional services and normal rate increases to existing customers. With respect to the ATM revenue, a change in service requirements by certain customers resulted in a reduction in such revenue,
which occurred early in the year. Management believes that ongoing efforts of the Companys sales force will continue to increase the ATM services line, as reflected by the slight increase in ATM services from the second to third quarters.





As a result of the rising fuel prices, as discussed below, the Company initiated a fuel fee during February 2000
which favorably impacted the 2000 revenues when comparing them to the respective 1999 periods. Adjustments are periodically made to the fuel fee to compensate for additional fuel price fluctuations.

Payroll and related expense.Payroll and related expense decreased by approximately $0.2 million (0.4%) for
the three month period and increased $3.2 million (1.9%) for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 from the corresponding periods in 1999. As a percent of revenue, payroll and related expense increased to 62.4% and 62.8% for the respective three
and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 from 61.7% and 61.6% for the corresponding periods in 1999. Factors responsible for the increase include the continued strengthening of management staffing, the business strategy of improved wages and fringe
benefits, as well as increases in the number of crew operating certain higher risk routes.





Vehicle expense. Vehicle expense decreased by approximately $0.1 million (0.7%) and $0.9 million (2.8%) for
the respective three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 from the corresponding periods in 1999. Vehicle expense as a percent of revenue remained relatively constant for the quarter ended September 30, 2000 with the corresponding period in 1999 and
decreased to 11.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 from 11.4% for the corresponding period in 1999. Reductions in the amounts paid for vehicle rentals and auto liability claims were the primary cause for this reduction. This decrease was
achieved despite fuel prices rising by approximately 29.0% and 35.0% during the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000, respectively.





Facilities expense.Facilities expense decreased by approximately $0.2 million (4.1%) and $0.3 million
(2.2%) for the respective three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 from the corresponding periods in 1999. Facilities expense as a percent of revenue, for the three and nine-month periods of 2000, remained relatively constant with the
corresponding periods in 1999.





Other operating expenses. Other operating expenses decreased by approximately $1.5 million (9.2%) and $4.6
million (9.1%) for the respective three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 from the corresponding periods in 1999. Other operating expenses as a percent of revenue decreased to 16.3% and 16.0% for the respective three and nine-month periods
ended September 30, 2000 from 17.7% and 17.6% for the corresponding periods in 1999. Other operating expenses include such expenses as cargo insurance premiums and retained losses, costs of a centralized dispatch center, subcontracting costs and the
testing, recruiting and training of employees. The decreases in other operating expenses are partially a result of a reduction in both ATM service revenue and expenses. Secondly, cost reduction efforts initiated earlier in the year have resulted in
reduced travel costs, training, recruiting and hiring, and general office expenses. In addition, combined cash-in-transit insurance premiums and cargo loss totals have declined during the nine-month period ending September 30, 2000.





7





Restructuring Expense. Restructuring expenses totaling $0.5 million were recorded in the second quarter
of 2000 related to the transition from five geographic divisions to four. The operating income margins, prior to these expenses, were 5.9% during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 compared to 5.0% during the corresponding period in 1999.





Interest expense. Interest expense and the expense as a percent of revenue for the three and nine-month
periods of 2000 remained relatively unchanged from the corresponding periods in 1999. While the average interest rates increased during 2000, the Company was able to maintain a relatively constant amount of interest expense. This was a result of the daily
average borrowings under the Companys credit facility decreasing by approximately $0.3 million and $2.1 million for the respective three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2000 from the corresponding periods in 1999.





LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES





Total cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2000 and 1999 were $3.0 million and $7.7 million, respectively.
Changes in cash and cash equivalents are described in the statements of cash flows, which are summarized below.

Operating Activities





Net cash of $8.8 million was provided by operating activities during the first nine months of 2000 as compared to
$13.5 million during the same period of 1999. This decrease is primarily attributable to the significant improvement made in collection of accounts receivable during 1999 and timing of payments for routine expenditures such as payroll. The successful
collection efforts have continued through 2000 resulting in an improved accounts receivable portfolio; however, the month-end balances have remained more consistent.





Investing Activities





In the first nine months of 2000, cash of $11.8 million was used for acquisitions of property and equipment, which
primarily related to the enhancement of the Companys fleet and to enhanced information technology capabilities. Planned capital expenditures for the next twelve months are estimated to be approximately $17.0 million.





Financing Activities





Net borrowings of $5.0 million were made on the Companys bank credit facility during the first nine months
of 2000. The Companys average daily balance outstanding was $2.1 million less during this period than the corresponding period in 1999. The primary reasons the Company was able to reduce the level of debt have been the favorable results of
operations and the continued focus on collections. In connection with the utilization of certain net operating losses in the 1999 Federal Income Tax return, the Company made a final payment, totaling $2.9 million, on the long-term debt to affiliates
during the first quarter of 2000. The payment was financed through the Companys revolving bank credit facility.





The Companys balance sheet reflected a working capital deficit of $10.0 million at September 30, 2000, an
improvement from the December 31, 1999 working capital deficit of $17.1 million. The Company is highly leveraged, with long-term liabilities comprising 75.8% of total liabilities and stockholders equity at September 30, 2000. The Companys
consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2000 reflected total stockholders equity of $0.7 million, as compared to a stockholders deficit totaling $3.1 million at December 31, 1999.





8





The Companys revolving bank credit facility provided aggregate commitments of $85.6 million at September
30, 2000. Under the facility, funds can be borrowed either for unspecified periods of time at a base rate tied to the banks prime rate, or for set periods of time under variable rates tied to LIBOR. The facility includes letters of credit, of which
approximately $17.3 million were outstanding at September 30, 2000. Remaining commitments available under the facility at September 30, 2000 were $19.7 million.





Prior to June 26, 2000, the Companys revolving bank credit facility included commitment reductions over the
final four years of the facility. On June 26, 2000, an amendment to the revolving bank credit facility was executed which removed all remaining commitment reductions and extended the termination date from January 2002 to April 2002, at a cost of $0.1
million. It is anticipated that letters of credit requirements, principally for casualty liabilities, should not exceed $20.0 million by December 31, 2000, leaving at least $65.6 million in available borrowing capacity. Management believes that the
operating cash flow and this remaining financing commitment will be adequate to fund operating needs and capital expenditures during the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future beyond twelve months.
