                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

       Three month periods ended September 30, 2000 and September 25, 1999
                                   (Unaudited)

                  The consolidated financial statements included herein, except
         for the July 1, 2000 balance sheet which was extracted from the audited
         consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended July 1,
         2000, have been prepared by G&K Services, Inc. (the Company), without
         audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
         Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying
         unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments
         (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
         fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2000,
         and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three
         months ended September 30, 2000 and September 25, 1999. Certain
         information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
         statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
         accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant
         to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the
         disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not
         misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial
         statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
         notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report.

                  The results of operations for the three month periods ended
         September 30, 2000, and September 25, 1999, are not necessarily
         indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

1.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

                  Accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in
         Note 1 to the Company's Annual Consolidated Financial Statements.

         NATURE OF BUSINESS
                  G&K Services, Inc. is a full-service uniform rental provider,
         including the rental of cleanroom garments. The Company also provides
         rental of nonuniform items such as floormats, dustmops and cloths,
         wiping towels and selected linen items. In addition, the Company
         manufactures uniforms for customers as well as uniforms for direct
         sale.

         PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
                  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
         accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly
         owned. Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
         eliminated in consolidation.

         DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
                  Derivative financial instruments are used by the Company in
         the management of its interest rate exposure. Amounts to be paid or
         received under interest rate swap agreements are accrued as interest
         rates change and are recognized over the life of the swap agreements as
         an adjustment to interest expense. The related amounts payable to, or
         receivable from, the counterparties are included in other accrued
         expenses.

         PER SHARE DATA
                  Basic earnings per common share was computed by dividing net
         income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock
         outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share was
         computed similar to the computation of basic earnings per share, except
         that the denominator is increased for the assumed exercise of dilutive
         options and other dilutive securities (including nonvested restricted
         stock) using the treasury stock method.


                                                                               5

3.       LONG-TERM DEBT

                  During the first quarter, the Company completed a
         $50,000, 8.40% private placement debt transaction with certain
         institutional investors. The 10-year notes have a seven-year
         average life. According to the note purchase agreement, an
         initial take-down of $20,000 was completed on July 20, 2000 and
         a second take-down of $15,000 was completed on September 15,
         2000. A final take-down of $15,000 will be made on or about
         December 15, 2000. Each take-down bears the same coupon of
         8.40%. The Company has used the net proceeds from the sale of
         the notes to repay existing indebtedness under its term loan and
         revolving credit facility and for general corporate expenses.

4.       SEGMENT INFORMATION

                  The Company has two operating segments under the guidelines of
         SFAS No. 131: United States and Canada. Each operating segment derives
         revenues from the uniform rental business which includes garment rental
         and nonuniform items such as floormats, dust mops and cloths, wiping
         towels and selected linen items. No one customer's transactions account
         for 10% or more of the Company's revenues.

                  The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those
         described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note
         1). Financial information by geographic location for the three month
         periods ended September 30, 2000 and September 25, 1999 is as follows:

</TABLE>

         Total revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 increased 8.1% to
$145.9 million from $130.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Rental
revenue growth for the first quarter accounted for $11.4 million, or an 8.7%
increase. The improvement in rental revenue growth rates were influenced by
several factors including the Company's focus on internal revenue growth through
an expanded sales force, improved sales productivity, new product introductions,
service marketing and acquisitions. Additionally, the Company has continued to
aggressively build its presence in the national account market through both new
sales and further penetration of existing national accounts.

         Total direct sales to outside customers decreased 8.6% to $4.0 million
for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to $4.4 million in the same period
of fiscal 2000. Direct sale revenue is down as the Company continues to focus on
improving efficiency and productivity of its direct sale operation. Cost of
direct sales, as a percentage of direct sales, decreased to 82.0% from 83.9% in
the same period of fiscal 2000.

         Cost of rental operations increased 10.9% to $81.2 million for the
first quarter of fiscal 2001 from $73.2 million in the same period of fiscal
2000. As a percentage of rental revenues, these costs increased to 57.2% for the
first quarter of fiscal 2001 from 56.1% in the same period of fiscal 2000. The
increase reflects higher fuel costs and increased workers' compensation and
health insurance expenses.

         Selling and administrative expenses increased 7.1% to $31.8 million in
the first quarter of fiscal 2001 from $29.7 million in the same period of fiscal
2000. As a percentage of revenues, selling and administrative expenses


                                                                               8
<PAGE>

decreased to 21.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 from 22.0% in the same
period of fiscal 2000. The decrease as a percent of revenue is largely due to
cost reductions in the direct sale operation.

         Depreciation expense decreased 0.1% to $7.0 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 from $7.0 million in the same period of fiscal 2000. As a
percentage of revenues, depreciation expense decreased to 4.8% in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 from 5.2% in the same period of fiscal 2000. Fixed asset
additions supporting revenue growth were largely offset by the equipment
purchased in fiscal 1998 from the National Linen Service transaction that is now
fully depreciated. Capital expenditures, excluding acquisition of businesses,
were $8.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to $13.0 million
in the prior year's quarter.

         Amortization expense increased 13.3% to $2.4 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 from $2.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
The increase in amortization expense is due to the goodwill associated with
acquisitions made during fiscal 2000.

         Income from operations increased 5.2% to $20.2 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 from $19.2 million in the same period of fiscal 2000.
Operating margins decreased to 13.8% in fiscal 2001 from 14.2% in fiscal 2000.

         Interest expense was $4.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001,
up from $3.9 million in the same period of fiscal 2000. The increase in interest
expense is due primarily to an increase of approximately 140 basis points in the
Company's overall effective interest rate since last year. The Company's
effective tax rate increased to 40.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 from
39.7% in the same period of fiscal 2000.

         Net income rose 2.4% to $9.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal
2001 from $9.6 million in the same period of fiscal 2000. Basic and diluted
earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 were $.48 per share,
compared to $.47 per share for the prior year quarter. Net income margins
decreased to 6.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared with 7.1% in the
first quarter of fiscal 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES

         Cash flow from operating activities was $22.9 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 and $25.5 million in the same period of fiscal 2000. The
greater cash flow in fiscal 2000 was partially due to increases in accounts
payable and other accrued expenses in connection with the acquisition of 3-D
Services, Inc. Working capital at September 30, 2000 was $60.8 million, up 22.3%
from $49.7 million at July 1, 2000. The increase in working capital is largely
due to the issuance of $35 million of senior long-term debt replacing amounts
outstanding under other credit facilities that were classified as current
maturities of long-term debt at year end.

         Cash used in investing activities was $9.2 million in the first quarter
of fiscal 2001 and $22.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The
decrease is primarily due to the acquisition of business assets in the first
quarter of fiscal 2000.

         Cash used for financing activities was $13.3 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 and $8.1 million in the same period of fiscal 2000. The
long-term debt, including current maturities, decreased to $213.2 million at
September 30, 2000 from $225.7 million at July 1, 2000. The Company paid
dividends of $0.4 million during the quarter. The Company's ratio of debt to
total capitalization decreased to 43.3% at the end of the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 from 45.4% at July 1, 2000.

         Stockholders' equity grew 2.9% to $279.4 million at September 30, 2000,
compared with $271.5 million at the end of fiscal 2000. G&K's return on average
equity decreased to 3.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared with 4.0%
for the first quarter of fiscal 2000.

         Management believes that cash flows generated from operations and its
credit facilities should provide adequate funding for its current businesses and
planned expansion of operations or any future acquisitions.

MARKET RISK SENSITIVITY

         The Company uses financial instruments, including fixed and variable
rate debt, as well as interest rate swaps, to finance operations and to hedge
interest rate exposures. The swap contracts are entered into for periods
consistent with related underlying exposures and do not constitute positions
independent of those exposures. The Company does not enter into contracts for
speculative purposes, nor is it a party to any leveraged instrument. There has
been no material change in the Company's market risks associated with debt and
interest rate swap obligations during the quarter ended September 30, 2000.

         Statements in this document regarding ongoing trends and expectations
constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, which may cause the Company's actual results in the future to
differ materially from expected results. These risks and uncertainties include,
but are not limited to, unforeseen operating risks; the availability of capital
to finance planned growth; competition within the uniform leasing industry; and
the effects of economic conditions.
