(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share amounts)
(1) ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Williams Scotsman, Inc. (the Company) is a 100% owned subsidiary of
Scotsman Holdings, Inc. (Holdings), a corporation which was organized in
November 1993 for the purpose of acquiring the Company. The Company's operations
include its 100% owned subsidiaries, Willscot Equipment, LLC (Willscot) and
Williams Scotsman of Canada, Inc. Willscot, a special purpose subsidiary, was
formed in May 1997; its operations are limited to the leasing of its mobile
office units to the Company under a master lease. Additionally, Willscot has
entered into a management agreement with the Company whereby it pays a fee to
the Company in an amount equal to the rental and other income (net of
depreciation expense) it earns from the Company. Therefore, Willscot earns no
net income. These 100% owned subsidiaries are guarantors of the Company's credit
facility. The Company's 9.875% senior notes due 2007 are fully and
unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company's 100%
owned subsidiaries, Space Master International, Inc., Evergreen Mobile Company,
Truck & Trailer Sales, Inc. and Williams Scotsman of Canada, Inc. Willscot has
fully and unconditionally guaranteed the senior notes on a subordinated basis.
See Note 3 for further information concerning the Company's 10% senior secured
notes due 2008 that were issued in August 2003.
The operations of the Company consist primarily of the leasing and sale of
mobile offices, modular buildings and storage products (equipment) and their
delivery and installation.
(2) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial information referred to above has not been audited. In the
opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2003, the
consolidated statements of operations for the nine and three months ended
September 30, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated statements of cash flows for
the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. The results of operations for
the periods ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 are not necessarily indicative of
the operating results expected for the full year.
The balance sheet at December 31, 2002 has been derived from the audited
financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information
and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally
included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's latest Form 10-K. Certain prior year amounts
have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

---------- -----------
Borrowings under revolving credit facility $ 47,300 $ 197,691
Term loan 208,959 238,200

and $1,546 in 2002 10.0% senior
secured notes 150,000 --
------- -------
$ 954,980 $ 984,345
======= =======
In August 2003, the Company issued $150 million of 10.0% senior secured
notes due 2008. The Company used the net proceeds of $145.4 million received
from that offering to repay $27.5 million of the term loan under the Company's
credit facility and repay $117.9 million of borrowings and terminate commitments
under its revolving credit facility. The 10.0% senior secured notes are fully
and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured second lien basis by the
Company's 100% owned subsidiaries: Space Master International, Inc., Evergreen
Mobile Company, Truck & Trailer Sales, Inc. and Williams Scotsman of Canada,
Inc. Willscot, also a 100% owned subsidiary, has fully and unconditionally
guaranteed the senior secured notes on a subordinated secured second lien basis.
These 100% owned subsidiaries act as joint and several guarantors of the senior
and senior secured notes. See Note 1 for a description of the operations of
Willscot. The 10.0% senior secured notes are due August 15, 2008 with interest
payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year. On August 15,
2006, the senior secured notes are redeemable at the option of the Company at a
redemption price of 105% for the following 12-month period. On August 15, 2007
the senior secured notes are redeemable at the option of the Company at a
redemption price of 102.5% for the following twelve month period.
In August 2003, the Company also amended its credit facility. The amendment
modified certain financial ratios that the Company is required to maintain, as
follows:
o a consolidated leverage ratio that increases from 6.60 on the effective date
of the amendment to the credit facility to 6.75 on December 31, 2003
and decreases thereafter over time to 6.25;
o a consolidated interest coverage ratio of 1.70; and
o a minimum average annual utilization rate for its fleet ranging from 74% on or
prior to December 31, 2004 and 75% thereafter.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(3) REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AND LONG-TERM DEBT (continued)
As a result of the term loan repayment and reduction in revolver
commitments, $2.5 million of deferred financing costs relating to the Company's
March 2002 refinancing were expensed during the third quarter of 2003 and are
included in interest expense.
(4) CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE
In October 2002, the Company changed its estimated residual value from 50%
of capitalized costs to $1 for certain classroom units. Additionally, the
remaining estimated useful life for a portion of these units was reduced to 45
months. The effect of this change in estimate is an increase in depreciation
expense of approximately $600 and $1,800 and a decrease in net income of $350
and $1,060 or $.11 and $.32 per share, for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2003, respectively.
(5) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE
Pro forma information required by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure," has been determined as if the Company
had accounted for its employee stock options under the minimum value method of
that Statement. The minimum value for these options was estimated at the date of
grant by calculating the excess of the fair value of the stock at the date of
grant over the present value of both the exercise price and the expected
dividend payments, each discounted at the risk free rate, over the expected
exercise life of the option.
The following weighted average assumptions were used: risk-free interest
rate of 3.18% and 3.8% for 2003 and 2002, respectively, weighted average
expected life of the options of 5 years; and no dividends. In addition to the
pro forma expense on options granted, certain options were modified during the
nine month period ended September 30, 2003 and the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 2002. In determining the pro forma expense related to these
modified options, the Company used the following assumptions: risk free interest
rates of 2.8 to 3.5%, expected life of options of 3 to 5 years, and no
dividends.

(5) STOCK BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE (continued)
For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated minimum value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. Note that the
effects of applying SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosure in the current period are
not necessarily representative of the effects on pro forma net income for future
periods. The Company's pro forma information follows:

(6) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Under SFAS No. 142 goodwill and certain identified intangibles with
indefinite lives are no longer amortized, rather they are subject to annual
impairment tests. The Company performed the required annual test during the
fourth quarter of 2002 and determined that goodwill was not impaired.
Amortization expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30,
2003 was $.2 million and $.6 million, respectively, which represents the
amortization related to the identified intangible assets still required to be
amortized under SFAS No. 142.
These intangible assets include covenants not to compete and customer base,
which are being amortized on a straight line basis over periods of 24 to 228
months. Amortization expense relating to these identified intangibles for each
of the next five years is as follows:
2003 $713

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
Forward Looking Statements
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this
report. The terms "company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Williams Scotsman,
Inc. and its subsidiaries. The following discussion and analysis contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual
results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking
statements as a result of certain factors, including those contained in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002 under the
headings "Business", "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in that report. See the Safe
Harbor Statement at the beginning of this report.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
General. This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations is based upon our unaudited consolidated financial
statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial
statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of
contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate estimates, including
those related to depreciation of rental equipment, bad debts, contingencies and
litigation, intangible assets, and income taxes. We base our estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are
not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these
estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more
significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated
financial statements. A critical accounting policy is one which is both
important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and results, and
requires management's most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as
a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are
inherently uncertain.
Depreciation of rental equipment. We depreciate rental equipment over its
estimated useful life, after giving effect to an estimated salvage value. The
useful life of our rental equipment is determined based on our estimate of the
period over which the asset will generate revenue (generally 20 years), and the
residual value (typically 50% of original cost) is determined based on our
estimate of the minimum value we could realize from the asset after this period.
The lives and residual values are subject to periodic evaluation and may be
affected by, among other factors, changes in building codes, legislation,
regulations, local permitting and internal factors which may include, but are
not limited to, changes in equipment specifications or maintenance policies. If
these estimates change in the future, we may be required to recognize increased
or decreased depreciation expense for these assets. See Note 4 for a description
of a change in accounting estimate associated with certain classroom units.
Allowance for doubtful accounts. We are required to estimate the
collectibility of our trade receivables. Accordingly, allowances for doubtful
accounts are maintained for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our
customers to make required payments. We evaluate a variety of factors in
13
assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables including the current
credit-worthiness of customers. The allowance for doubtful accounts is
determined based on historical collection results in addition to an ongoing
review of specific customers. If the financial condition of our customers were
to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments,
additional allowances may be required, resulting in decreased net income.
Contingencies. We are subject to proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims
related to environmental, product and other matters, and are required to assess
the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes to these matters as well as
potential ranges of probable losses. A determination of the amount of reserves
required, if any, for these contingencies is made after analysis of each
individual matter. The required reserves may change in the future due to new
developments in each matter or changes in approach such as a change in
settlement strategy in dealing with these matters.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Asset Impairment. We have significant
intangible assets related to goodwill and other acquired intangibles. The
determination of related estimated useful lives and whether or not these assets
are impaired involves significant judgments. After adopting SFAS 142 in 2002,
goodwill was determined not to be impaired. Future changes in strategy and/or
market conditions could significantly impact these judgments and require
adjustments to recorded asset balances.
Foreign Currency Translation. We use the exchange rate effective at the
close of business on the balance sheet date to translate our foreign
subsidiary's balance sheet and an average rate for the reporting period to
translate the results of operations. The cumulative effect of changes in
exchange rates is recognized in a separate line in the equity section of the
balance sheet.
Income Taxes. We are required to estimate income taxes in each of the
jurisdictions in which we operate. The process involves estimating actual
current tax expense along with assessing temporary differences resulting from
differing treatment of items for book and tax purposes. These timing differences
result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in our
unaudited consolidated balance sheet. We record a valuation allowance to reduce
our deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be
realized. We have considered future taxable income and ongoing tax planning
strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared with Three Months Ended
September 30, 2002.
Revenues in the quarter ended September 30, 2003 were $117.3 million; a
$19.9 million or 14.5% decrease from revenues of $137.3 million in the same
period of 2002. The decrease resulted primarily from a $11.9 million or 37.1%
decrease in sales of new units, a $3.4 million or 40.0% decrease in sales of
rental equipment, a $2.6 million or 4.6% decrease in leasing revenue, and a $1.5
million or 12.4% decrease in other revenue from the same period in 2002. The
decrease in sales of new units is the result of delays experienced with some of
our large projects. The decrease in sales of rental equipment and other revenue
is the result of the non-recurrence of several large school projects. Other
revenue includes a gain of approximately $1 million from the sale of one of our
branch properties. The decrease in leasing revenue is attributable to the
continued soft economic conditions and competitive pricing pressures. The
average monthly rental rate decreased approximately 4.5% to $248 from $260 in
the same period in 2002.
14
Gross profit for the quarter ended September 30, 2003 was $45.4 million, a
$7.7 million or 14.5% decrease from the third quarter 2002 gross profit of $53.1
million. This decrease is primarily a result of a 11.2% decrease in leasing
gross profit of $3.6 million, and a 36.8% or $1.8 million decrease in new unit
sales gross profit. Excluding depreciation and amortization, leasing margins
decreased by 2.9% to 75.3%. The decreases in new unit sales and leasing gross
profit dollars are the result of the decreases in revenues described above.
Furthermore, $1 million, or 1.9% of the leasing gross profit decrease is
attributable to an increase in the cost of leasing, primarily refurbishment and
maintenance expenses, as compared to the same period in 2002.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses for the quarter ended
September 30, 2003 decreased by $1.2 million or 6.0% to $18.5 million from $19.7
million in the same period 2002. This was achieved by continuing our cost
control initiatives, primarily reductions in personnel related costs, as well as
a $.5 million reduction in stock option compensation expense for the quarter.
Interest expense increased by $2.2 million or 10.4% to $23.8 million in
2003 from the same period in 2002. This increase is the result of (a) interest
expense of $1.8 million on the additional $150 million of 10% senior secured
notes and (b) $2.5 million of deferred financing costs expensed during the
quarter (See Note 3 for Revolving Credit Facility and Long Term Debt), offset by
a decrease in interest on our variable rate debt of $2.3 million as a result of
lower average balances.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2003 Compared with Nine Months Ended September
30, 2002.
Revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $325.9 million, a
$47.4 million or 12.7% decrease from revenues of $373.2 million in the same
period of 2002. The decrease resulted from a $20.4 million or 27.9% decrease in
sales of new units, an $11.2 million or 6.5% decrease in leasing revenue, and a
$9.4 million or 12.2% decrease in delivery and installation revenue. The
decrease in leasing revenue is attributable to the continued soft economic
conditions, which impacted fleet utilization, as well as competitive pricing
pressures. Average fleet utilization decreased 2% to 76%, and the average
monthly rental rate decreased approximately 4.6% to $251 from $263 in the same
period in 2002. The decreases in delivery and installation and new unit sales
revenues were in part due to a non-recurring large school project in 2002, which
accounted for 15% of the decrease in these revenues over the same period in
2002. In addition, the impact of severe weather, particularly in the
mid-Atlantic and northeastern parts of the United States, and the growing effect
of state budget issues in certain parts of the country have produced some delays
of projects and initiatives that affected the Company's operating results for
the first nine months of 2003.
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was $133.7
million, a $23.6 million or 15.0% decrease from $157.3 million in the same
period of 2002. This decrease is primarily a result of a 13.5% decrease in
leasing gross profit of $13.8 million, a 29.9% or $4.1 million decrease in
delivery and installation gross profit, and a 27.3% or $3.2 million decrease in
sales of new units. The decrease in leasing gross profit is primarily a result
of the decrease in leasing revenue described above. Consequently, leasing
margins, excluding depreciation and amortization, decreased by 1.0% to 78.2%.
The decrease in new unit sales and delivery and installation gross profit
dollars is the result of the non-recurrence of a major classroom project, as
well as weather related delays, state budget issues, redeployment costs and
continued soft economic conditions.
SG&A expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $57.5
million, a $6.2 million or 9.7% decrease from SG&A expenses of $63.7 million for
the same period in 2002.
15
This was achieved by continuing our cost control initiatives, primarily
reductions in personnel related costs, as well as a $1.4 million reduction in
stock option compensation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2003.
Interest expense increased by $.6 million or 1.0% to $64.7 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 2003 from $64.1 million in the same period in
2002. This increase is the result of (a) interest expense of $3.8 million on the
additional $150 million of 10.0% senior secured notes and 9.875% senior notes
issued in August 2003 and February 2002, respectively and (b) an increase of $.9
million of deferred financing costs that were expensed, offset by (c) a decrease
in interest on our variable rate debt of $3.9 million as a result of lower
average balances.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, our principal
source of funds consisted of cash flow from operating activities of $71.7
million and $84.0 million, respectively. These were largely generated by the
rental of units from our lease fleet and sales of new mobile office units. Cash
generated from operating activities was used to fund capital expenditures and to
reduce existing debt under our credit agreement.
Our Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 decreased
by $15.5 million or 11.9% to $114.7 million in 2003 compared to $130.2 million
for the same period in 2002. This decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is primarily the
result of the revenue declines described above. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as
earnings before deducting interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and
non-cash charges. Non-cash charges for the first nine months of 2003 and 2002
consist of non-cash stock option compensation expense of approximately $1.7
million and $3.1million, respectively. We utilize Adjusted EBITDA when
interpreting operating trends and results of operations of our core business
operations. Accordingly, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides additional
information with respect to our overall operating performance and our ability to
incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and meet working capital
requirements. However, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or
as a substitute to cash flow from operations, net income, or other measures of
performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
or as a measure of a company's profitability or liquidity. Because Adjusted
EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net income and may vary
among companies, the Adjusted EBITDA mentioned above may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures of other companies.

activities, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (in thousands), and

financing activities.

Cash flow used in financing activities $(36,858) $(47,932)
====== ======
Cash flow used in investing activities was $35.1 million and $36.2 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Our primary
capital expenditures are for the discretionary purchase of new units for the
lease fleet and units purchased through acquisitions. We seek to maintain our
lease fleet in good condition at all times and generally increase the size of
our lease fleet only in those local or regional markets experiencing economic
growth and established unit demand.
Cash flow used in financing activities was $36.9 million and $47.9 million
for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the
first nine months of 2003 and 2002, cash flow of $29.6 million and $27.8
million, respectively, was used for net repayments of debt under our revolving
credit facility. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, cash used in
financing activities also included $20.3 million for deferred financing fees
incurred relating to the issuance of additional 9.875% senior notes and the new
credit facility established in the first quarter of that year.
In light of continued economic challenges we have implemented a series of
initiatives, including staff reductions, elimination of our matching of employee
contributions to their 401(k) accounts, general cost reductions, and intensified
management of working capital. During the second quarter, we also sold $4.6
million of finance leases. In August 2003, we issued $150 million of 10.0%
senior secured notes due 2008. Net proceeds from the issuance were used to repay
term and revolver borrowings under our credit agreement. Also in the month of
August, we amended certain financial ratios under our bank credit facility,
including (1) increasing the permitted maximum leverage ratio, (2) decreasing
the required utilization rate, and (3) decreasing the minimum interest coverage
ratio. (See Note 3 for Revolving Credit Facility and Long Term Debt.) These
steps are geared toward improving the company's underlying liquidity,
profitability, and performance.
We believe that we will have sufficient liquidity under our revolving line
of credit and from cash generated from operations to fund our operations for the
next 12 months.
17
Availability under our credit agreement at September 30, 2003 was $84,612
and depends upon our continued compliance with certain covenants, including,
leverage, interest coverage, and utilization ratios. The failure to maintain the
required ratios would result in us not being able to borrow under the credit
agreement and, if not cured within the grace periods, would result in an default
under the credit agreement. We are currently in compliance with all financial
covenants. For the twelve month period ended September 30, 2003, our actual
Consolidated Leverage Ratio was 6.06 as compared to the maximum covenant
requirement of 6.60 and our actual Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio was 2.03
as compared to the minimum covenant requirement of 1.70. The Consolidated
Leverage Ratio was calculated by dividing the September 30, 2003 consolidated
debt balance of $954, 980 by Consolidated EBITDA for the twelve month period
ended September 30, 2003. The Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio was
calculated by dividing Consolidated EBITDA for the twelve month period ended
September 30, 2003 by interest expense as defined in the credit agreement of
$77,320. Consolidated EBITDA, calculated in accordance with the credit
agreement, was $156,868 for Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio calculation
purposes. For Consolidated Leverage Ratio calculation purposes Consolidated
EBITDA of $156,868 is further adjusted to include $646 relating to entities we
acquired during the calculation period. Consolidated EBITDA represents
consolidated net income plus consolidated interest, tax, depreciation and
amortization expenses, and excludes gains and losses on sales of fixed assets
and any other non-cash items. It is used in determining our compliance with the
financial ratios required by our agreement. Consolidated EBITDA should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute to cash flow from operating
activities, net income or other measures of performance prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles or as a measure of a company's
profitability or liquidity.
Although not required by our credit agreement, if cash flow from operating
activities, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, were used in these
calculations instead of Consolidated EBITDA, our leverage ratio and interest
coverage ratios would have been 11.04 and 1.12, respectively.
The table below reconciles Consolidated EBITDA, calculated pursuant to the
credit agreement, for the twelve months ended September 30, 2003 to cash flow
from operating activities, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (in
thousands).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have concluded, based on their evaluation, as of the end
of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure
controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a - 15(e) and 15d - 15(e))
are (1) effective to ensure that material information
required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or
submitted by us under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's
rules and forms, and (2) designed to ensure that material
information required to be disclosed by us in such reports
is accumulated, organized and communicated to our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
There has been no change in the Company's internal control
over financial reporting (as defined in the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that
occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter
that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the system will be met. In addition, the design of any control
system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future
events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems,
there is only reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving
their stated goals under all potential future conditions.
