XANSER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Xanser Corporation (the "Company") and its subsidiaries. On June 29, 2001,
the Company distributed its pipeline, terminaling and product marketing
businesses (the "Distribution") to its stockholders in the form of shares
of a new limited liability company, Kaneb Services LLC. As a result of the
Distribution, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements
reflect the operations of the pipeline, terminaling and product marketing
businesses of the Company prior to June 29, 2001 as "Discontinued
operations - businesses distributed to common shareholders". All
significant intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in
consolidation.


The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company
for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. Significant accounting policies followed by the
Company are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2001. In the opinion of the Company's management, the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain the
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to present
fairly the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries at June 30, 2002 and the consolidated results of
their operations and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2002 and
2001. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2002.


2. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and
2001 is as follows:

As a result of the losses from continuing operations applicable to common
stock for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, all stock
options and the Company's 8.75% convertible subordinated debentures were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the
effects would be anti-dilutive. Since the average market prices of the
Company's common stock for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
2001 were in excess of outstanding option exercise prices, all outstanding
options were considered dilutive at June 30, 2001. Additionally, the
Company's 8.75% convertible subordinated debentures were excluded from the
computation of diluted earning per share for the three and six month
periods ended June 30, 2001 because the effect of assumed conversion is
anti-dilutive.


4. CONTINGENCIES

The Company has contingent liabilities resulting from litigation, claims
and commitments incident to the ordinary course of business. Management
believes that the ultimate resolution of such contingencies will not have a
materially adverse effect on the financial position or results of
operations of the Company.



5. BUSINESS SEGMENT DATA

The Company provides technical services to an international client base
that includes refineries, chemical plants, pipelines, offshore drilling and
production platforms, steel mills, food and drink processing facilities,
power generation, and other process industries. Additionally, the Company's
information technology services segment provides consulting services,
hardware sales and other related information management and processing
services primarily to insurance and financial institutions, the government
and healthcare sectors. General corporate includes compensation and
benefits paid to officers and employees of the Company, insurance premiums,
general and administrative costs, tax and financial reporting costs, legal
and audit fees not reasonably allocable to specific business segments.
General corporate assets include cash, deferred taxes and other assets not
related to the Company's segments.

The Company measures segment profit as operating income. Total assets are
those assets, including excess of cost over fair value of acquired
businesses, controlled by each reportable segment. Business segment data is
as follows:

6. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - BUSINESSES DISTRIBUTED TO COMMON SHAREHOLDERS


The results of operations for the pipeline, terminaling and product
marketing businesses prior to the Distribution (see Note 1) are reflected
in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income as "Income
from discontinued operations - businesses distributed to common
shareholders". The pipeline and terminaling operations are conducted
through Kaneb Pipe Line Partners, L.P. ("KPP"), in which the Company owned
an effective 2% general partner interest and 25% limited partner interest
prior to the Distribution (see Note 1). A summary of operating results of
the discontinued operations included in the Company's condensed
consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended
June 30, 2001 is presented below:

7. ADOPTION OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets", which eliminates the amortization for goodwill (excess of cost
over fair value of net assets of acquired businesses) and other intangible
assets with indefinite lives. Under SFAS No. 142, intangible assets with
lives restricted by contractual, legal, or other means will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had no
intangible assets subject to amortization under SFAS No. 142. Goodwill and
other intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for
impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. SFAS No. 142
requires a two-step process for testing impairment. First, the fair value
of each reporting unit is compared to its carrying value to determine
whether an indication of impairment exists. If an impairment is indicated,
then second, the implied fair value of the reporting unit's goodwill is
determined by allocating the unit's fair value to its assets and
liabilities (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the
reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. The amount of
impairment for goodwill and other intangible assets is measured as the
excess of its carrying value over its implied fair value. Based on
valuations and analysis performed by independent valuation consultants and
the Company in the first quarter of 2002, the Company determined that the
carrying value of its goodwill exceeded implied fair value, and therefore,
the Company recorded a non-cash charge, after income taxes, of $45.3
million as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. No
impairment charge was appropriate under the previous goodwill impairment
standard (SFAS No. 121), which was based on undiscounted cash flows.

The changes in the carrying amount of excess of cost over fair value of net
assets of acquired businesses as of June 30, 2002 is as follows (in
thousands):

Excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses at December 31, 2001 $ 61,054

Cumulative effect of change in accounting principle
recorded in the first quarter of 2002 (47,252)
-------------
Excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses at June 30, 2002 $ 13,802
=============


The pro forma effects of the adoption of SFAS No. 142 on income (loss) from
continuing operations is as follows (in thousands - except per share
amounts):

Additionally, effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", which
addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal
of long-lived assets. The adoption of SFAS No. 144, which superceded SFAS
No. 121, did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated
financial statements of the Company.

For the three months ended June 30, 2002, revenues for the technical
services business decreased by $1.9 million, or 8%, when compared to the
same 2001 period as improvements in Europe and Asia-Pacific were more than
offset by declines in America. In the United States, second quarter
revenues decreased by $3.1 million, or 33%, compared to the same period in
2001, due to decreases in leaksealing and turnaround services, partially
offset by increases in other process plant services. In Europe, revenues
increased by $1.1 million, or 9%, when compared to the second quarter of
2001 period, due to increases in leaksealing services and foreign currency
exchange differences, partially offset by decreases in product sales. In
Asia-Pacific, revenues increased slightly due to increases in product sales
and foreign currency exchange differences, substantially offset by
decreases in underpressure and turnaround services.

For the six months ended June 30, 2002, revenues decreased by $6.0 million,
or 12%, when compared to 2001, due to the impact of the economic downturn
on its customers' business. Revenues in the United States decreased $5.6
million, or 29%, compared to 2001, due to decreases in underpressure and
turnaround services, partially offset by increases in other process plant
services. In Europe, revenues were flat as increases in leaksealing
services and differences in foreign exchange rates more than offset
decreases in turnaround services, other process services and product sales.
Asia-Pacific revenues decreased $0.5 million, or 9%, compared to 2001, due
to decreases in product sales, partially offset by increases in
underpressure services and foreign currency exchange rates.

Overall, technical services operating income decreased by $0.2 million, or
19%, for the three months ended June 30, 2002, when compared to the same
2001 period. In the United States, operating income decreased by $0.8
million, compared to the same period in 2001, due to the lower revenues. In
Europe, operating income declined $0.1 million, or 7%, as a favorable
pension cost adjustment recorded in the second quarter of 2001 was not
totally offset by the margins resulting from increased revenues in 2002. In
Asia-Pacific, operating income increased $0.2 million due to increased
revenues and lower costs.

Operating income decreased by $1.3 million, or 53%, for the six months
ended June 30, 2002, when compared to the same 2001 period. In the United
States, operating income decreased by $1.6 million, compared to the same
period in 2001, due to the lower revenues. In Europe, operating income
decreased by $1.0 million, or 29%, compared to the same 2001 period, due
primarily to a favorable pension cost adjustment recorded in 2001. In
Asia-Pacific, operating income increased $0.1 million, compared to the same
2001 period, due to higher operating margins, which more than offset lower
revenues.

Headquarters costs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001
includes $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of amortization
related to excess of cost over fair value of net assets of acquired
businesses. In the first quarter of 2002, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards "(SFAS") No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" which eliminates the amortization of goodwill and other
intangible assets with indefinite lives (see Note 7 to condensed
consolidated financial statements).

For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, total revenues
decreased $4.4 million, or 30%, and $8.0 million, or 31%, respectively,
when compared to the same 2001 periods. Service revenues decreased in the
second quarter and first half of 2002, compared to the same 2001 periods,
primarily due to lower voice and data service revenues from a large
customer, partially offset by increases in other service revenues. Revenues
from equipment sales, furnished at the request of selected customers,
decreased in the second quarter and first half of 2002, compared to the
same 2001 periods, due to normal fluctuations in customer needs.

Information technology services operating income decreased $2.3 million and
$4.3 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002,
respectively, compared to the same 2001 periods, due to lower revenues and
planned investments in management, marketing and product development costs.

Information technology services operating income for the three and six
month periods ended June 30, 2002 includes $0.1 million and $0.2 million,
respectively, of amortization related to excess of cost over fair value of
net assets of acquired businesses. In the first quarter of 2002, the
Company adopted SFAS No. 142 which eliminates the amortization of goodwill
and other intangible assets with indefinite lives (see Note 7 to condensed
consolidated financial statements).


Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased $0.4 million and $0.8 million for the three
month and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, respectively, compared to
the same periods in 2001, due to a decrease in debt levels (see "Liquidity
and Capital Resources") combined with lower interest rates on borrowings.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the first six months of 2002, the Company's working capital
requirements for operations and capital expenditures were funded through
the use of internally generated funds.

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $1.8
million and ($0.7) million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001,
respectively. The increase was due to normal changes in working capital
components resulting from the timing of cash receipts and disbursements,
partially offset by decreases in revenues and operating income.

Capital expenditures for continuing operations were $2.2 million for the
six months ended June 30, 2002, compared to $2.0 million in 2001. The
Company expects to fund maintenance capital expenditures in 2002 with
existing cash and anticipated cash funds from operations.

On August 13, 2002, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a
$25 million Amended and Restated Bank Loan Agreement ("Loan Agreement")
that provides working capital for the technical services group and is
without recourse to the Company. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement bear
interest at the option of the borrower at variable rates, based on either
the LIBOR rate or prime rate, has a commitment fee on the unused portion of
the facility and contains certain financial and operational covenants with
respect to the technical services group. The Loan Agreement matures in 2009
and is secured by substantially all of the tangible assets of the technical
services group.

On March 1, 2002, the Company purchased $10.0 million of its 8.75%
subordinated debentures at par value, which satisfies its sinking fund
requirements on these subordinated debentures until 2008.

On March 30, 2001, the Company's Series A Preferred Stock was redeemed for
cash at the stated redemption price of $10.67 per share, plus accrued and
unpaid dividends, for a total cost of approximately $6.1 million. The
redemption cost includes a $0.4 million redemption premium, which was
recognized as dividends and redemption premium applicable to preferred
stock in the first quarter of 2001.

Additional information related to the sources and uses of cash is presented
in the financial statements included in this report.

Information regarding the Company's Critical Accounting Policies is
included in Item 7 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2001.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The FASB has issued SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations", which establishes requirements for the removal-type costs
associated with asset retirements. The Company is currently assessing the
impact of SFAS No. 143, which must be adopted in the first quarter of 2003.

In April of 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, which, among other items,
affects the income statement classification of gains and losses from early
extinguishment of debt. Under SFAS No. 145, which must be adopted by the
first quarter of 2003, early extinguishment of debt is now considered a
risk management strategy, with resulting gains and losses no longer
classified as an extraordinary item, unless the debt extinguishment meets
certain unusual in nature and infrequency of occurrence criteria, which is
expected to be rare. Upon adoption, companies must reclassify prior items
that do not meet the new extraordinary item classification criteria as a
component of operating income. Adoption of SFAS No. 145 will have no effect
on the net income of the Company.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146 "Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities", which requires all restructurings
initiated after December 31, 2002 be recorded when they are incurred and
can be measured at fair value. The Company is currently assessing the
impact of SFAS No. 146, which must be adopted in the first quarter of 2003.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from the adverse
changes in market rates and prices) to which the Company is exposed are interest
rates on the Company's debt and investment portfolios. The Company's investment
portfolio consists of cash equivalents; accordingly, the carrying amounts
approximate fair value. The Company's investments are not material to its
financial position or performance. Assuming variable rate debt of $17.7 million
at June 30, 2002, a one percent increase in interest rates would increase annual
net interest expense by approximately $0.2 million.
