PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

TRC Companies, Inc. (the Company), together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries
and equity investments, provides technical, financial risk management and
construction services to industry and government primarily in the United States
market. Traditionally much of the Company's work was derived from the
environmental service business and was related to satisfying local, state and
federal regulatory requirements. In early 1998, new TRC management initiated a
growth plan directed toward maintaining the traditional business while
increasing growth by also focusing on economically driven markets. The Company
provides services to its customers in the following business areas:

TECHNICAL SERVICES - This business sector encompasses the Company's engineering,
scientific and technical services to its traditional markets and customers for
environmental management, infrastructure development and information management.
These areas have been the Company's historic focus and they serve as the
foundation for the Company's higher growth markets of Energy (Power) and Exit
Strategy(R) discussed below.

Environmental services provided by the Company include pollution control, waste
management, auditing and assessment, permitting and compliance, design and
engineering and natural and cultural resources management. The Company has
particular expertise in air quality, emissions control and monitoring and in the
investigation and cleanup of environmentally impaired sites. While these
services are generally required by the Company's customers for compliance with
federal, state and local environmental laws, the Company is experiencing an
increase in its business due to the rehabilitation of older business processes
to increase efficiency and productivity and the redevelopment of former
industrial properties to meet changing urban demographic patterns. The Company
believes these economically motivated projects will continue to provide
opportunities to expand and grow its traditional environmental business.

The Company's infrastructure development business targets: (1) growing
geographic areas where new infrastructure improvements are required to keep pace
with population growth; and (2) older areas where rehabilitation of aging or
inadequate infrastructure elements remain a primary focus of public spending for
both community improvement and economic stimulus. These improvements include
public infrastructure elements such as roads, bridges, water resources and waste
water treatment and to a lesser degree, private real estate development projects
for industrial, commercial and residential uses.

The Company's services in the environmental and infrastructure market generate
large amounts of useful data which require customized information management
systems. To meet this need, the Company assists its customers in analyzing its
data management requirements and designing and building software and hardware
solutions for cost effective information management systems. This includes the
use of both private intranets and the public Internet to provide the information
across customer and non-customer locations.

ENERGY (POWER) - Building upon its experience in providing environmental
services to the power generation industry, the Company has developed into a
leading provider of power plant siting and environmental permitting services to
the growing market of independent power producers (IPPs) who have emerged in the
wake of energy deregulation. These services are also provided to the owners and
operators of the natural gas and other fossil fuel pipelines that will supply
these new power plants. The Company believes the need for both power plants and
energy supply pipelines will continue to grow in the next several years and that
the Company is well positioned to provide the services needed to site and
support their construction.

In recognition that power demand will continue to outpace supply, causing the
cost of power to increase and the reliability of the grid during critical
periods to decrease, the Company has expanded its power market services from the
supply side of power generation and distribution to the demand side by
developing capabilities in energy conservation engineering, consulting and
construction and in on-site power generation. As the availability of cheap,
reliable electrical power diminishes, industrial and commercial users are
implementing changes to their facilities to maximize their energy efficiencies.
In addition, because the peak power demands of these facilities, which occur
over relatively shorter periods of time, drive the cost of all of their power
usage, customers are looking to meet these peak requirements with small, on-site
generators. The Company helps its customers


1



determine the need for and the proper application of these units and in
obtaining the land use (zoning) and environmental (air emissions) approvals to
build them.

EXIT STRATEGY(R) - In 1996, the Company developed an exclusive, innovative
method for its customers to outsource their environmental compliance obligations
to the Company. The Company's Exit Strategy program provides its customers with
a cost effective alternative to managing their non-core business activities.
This is especially attractive to customers in the following situations:

o MERGERS, ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES - In many instances,
the risk associated with prior environmental contamination at
a facility can seriously erode the market price for that
facility because neither the buyer nor seller wish to assume
that risk. By conducting thorough due diligence to quantify
the risk and by structuring comprehensive insurance coverage,
the Company is able to step in, assume the cleanup obligations
and thereby facilitate the sale of the property or business.
In this manner, the seller is able to obtain market price and
the buyer can protect itself against future costs for
environmental issues associated with past ownership practices.
More importantly, the transaction, which is often of far
greater value to both parties than the eventual cost of the
environmental issue, is completed.

o DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS - Many times when a customer closes a
facility, it must spend significant time and effort in
managing the environmental cleanup. This activity not only
serves as a distraction away from the customer's on-going
business, but it is also in a highly complex technical field
that few customers can support or perform with their own
employees. By turning these sites over to the Company, its
customers are able to free up management resources to focus on
core business activities and recognize a fixed, liquidated
liability amount for the closure. This latter benefit is
important because the company must recognize the total
expected cost of closure but, in many instances, it cannot
estimate its future environmental liability.

o MULTI-PARTY SUPERFUND SITES - When an owner/operator of a
waste disposal facility becomes insolvent, its customers must
pay for the costs of cleanup. The federal statute that assigns
this liability is known as "Superfund," and many states have
similar laws. Under the Exit Strategy program, the Company
provides these customers with an expedited method to fix their
estimated cost of liability by the Company's assumption of the
cleanup risk responsibility. This is a far cheaper alternative
for the Company's customers because it avoids the legal and
administrative cost of forming and managing the collective
group of the facility's former customers. (The government has
estimated that these expenses can add up to 40% of the cost of
the cleanup.) This also benefits the public because the
Company is able to complete the cleanup faster by avoiding the
legal and management entanglements that characterize
traditional Superfund projects.

o BROWNFIELDS REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT - The redevelopment of
environmentally contaminated property is commonly referred to
as "brownfields" redevelopment. The Company has, on occasion,
purchased contaminated property from its customers and is in
the process of cleaning up these properties to increase their
market value for eventual sale or redevelopment. The Company
does not actively pursue these sites on its own because of the
high capital demands and the longer investment cycle necessary
to recognize profit. Instead, the Company generally teams with
a developer or real estate partner who brings the capital and
real estate expertise necessary to realize the property's
economic potential. Because the Company brings it expertise in
managing the cleanup to the venture, both parties contribute
and profit according to their relative strengths.

The Company is recognized as a leader in the Exit Strategy market and the
Company expects the market for these projects to continue to grow at a rapid
pace. Accordingly, the Company is building its staff and capabilities to meet
the expected increased demand.

CUSTOMERS

The Company's customers include companies in the chemical, automotive,
petroleum, construction, transportation, mining, waste management and other
industries, financial institutions, public utilities, and local, state and
federal government agencies. Many of the Company's commercial customers are
major multinational corporations. The following customers are representative of
the Company's customers:



AES Enterprises General Motors Southern Energy
ASARCO Hanson PLC Tosco
Burlington Northern Santa Fe RR Lockheed Martin Corporation The Trump Organization
Cisco Systems Meridian Gold U. S. Government
City of Frisco, Texas New York City - EPA
Connecticut Resources Recovery - School Construction Authority - DOD
Authority - Department of Parks - FAA
Consolidated Edison - Department of Transportation Unocal
Duke Energy New York State Dept. of Transportation Waste Management
Exxon/Mobil Orange County, CA
Express Pipeline PG & E National Energy Group
General Electric Sentex Corporation



For fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, the federal government (principally the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and the U. S. Department of Defense) accounted
for 7%, 9% and 19%, respectively, of the Company's net service revenue. No other
customer represented 10% or more of the Company's net service revenue in any of
those years.

MARKETING AND SALES

The Company believes that it attracts customers primarily on the basis of its
reputation for providing value-added and cost-effective solutions to customer
needs and its ability to respond to meet customer schedules. The marketing
activities for the Company's services are generally conducted by senior
professional staff members and executives (seller-doers) who are recognized
experts in our business areas and regularly meet with existing and potential
customers to obtain new business. These activities are typically conducted
through the Company's network of regional resource centers for local customers
and by business sector leaders for national customers. In addition, corporate
and subsidiary marketing departments coordinate representation at trade shows,
prepare sales literature and develop and place advertising.

BACKLOG

At June 30, 2001, the Company's net contract backlog (excluding the estimated
costs of pass-through charges) was approximately $160 million, as compared to
approximately $80 million at June 30, 2000. The Company expects that
approximately 60% of this backlog will be completed in fiscal 2002. In addition
to this net contract backlog, the Company holds open order contracts from
various customers and government agencies. As work under these contracts is
authorized and funded, the Company includes this portion in its net contract
backlog. While most contracts contain cancellation provisions, the Company is
unaware of any material work included in backlog which will be canceled or
delayed.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 30, 2001, the Company had approximately 1,200 full and part-time
employees. Approximately 85% of these employees are primarily engaged in
performing environmental and infrastructure engineering and consulting,
financial risk management, construction management and information management
services for customers. Many of these employees have master's degrees or their
equivalent and a number have Ph.D. degrees. The Company's professional staff
includes program managers, professional engineers and scientists, construction
specialists, computer programmers, systems analysts, attorneys and others with
degrees and experience that enables the Company to provide a diverse range of
services. The balance of the Company's employees are engaged primarily in
executive, administrative and support activities. None of the Company's
employees are represented by a union. The Company considers its relations with
its employees to be very good.


3



COMPETITION

The markets for many of the Company's services are highly competitive. There are
numerous professional architectural, engineering and consulting firms and other
organizations which offer many of the services offered by the Company. The
Company is subject to direct competition with respect to the services it
provides from many other firms, ranging from small local firms to large national
firms having substantially greater financial, management and marketing resources
than the Company. Competitive factors include reputation, performance, price,
geographic location and availability of technically skilled personnel.

However, the majority of the Company's work is repeat orders from long-term
customers because the Company focuses on market areas where it can be a leading
provider due to staff skills, reputation, financial strength and/or geographic
presence. For example, the Company believes that it is one of the top 2 or 3
providers of permitting services for the large deregulated energy business.
Further, the Company appears to be the market leader in providing complete
outsourcing of site remediation services through its Exit Strategy program.

GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS

The Company has contracts with the U.S. Government which are subject to
examination and renegotiation. Contracts and other records of the Company have
been examined through June 30, 1996. The Company believes that adjustments
resulting from such examination or renegotiation proceedings, if any, will not
have a material impact on the Company's operating results, financial condition
or cash flows.

REGULATORY MATTERS

The Company's businesses are subject to various rules and regulations at the
federal, state and local government levels. The Company believes that it is in
compliance with these rules and regulations. The Company has the appropriate
licenses to bid and perform work in the locations in which it operates. The
Company has not experienced any significant limitations on its business as a
result of regulatory, bonding or insurance requirements. The Company does not
believe any changes in law or changes in industry practice would impose
conditions to bidding on future projects.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS AND LICENSES

The Company has a number of trademarks, service marks, copyrights and licenses,
none of which are considered material to the Company's business as a whole.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

The Company does not believe that its compliance with federal, state and local
laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment will have any
material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

The Company provides its services through a network of 42 offices located
nationwide and an office in Lima, Peru. The Company does not own any real estate
and leases approximately 320,000 square feet of office and laboratory space to
support these operations. These leased properties are adequately maintained and
are suitable and adequate for the business activities conducted therein.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company and its subsidiaries are not a party to any pending legal
proceedings in which an adverse decision, in the opinion of the Company, would
have a material adverse effect upon the Company.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates
primarily to borrowings under the Company's revolving credit agreement with a
commercial bank. These borrowings bear interest at variable rates and the fair
value of this indebtedness is not significantly affected by changes in market
interest rates. An effective increase or decrease of 10% in the current
effective interest rate under the revolving credit agreement would not have a
material effect on the Company's operating results, financial condition or cash
flows.
