("APCOA/Standard" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

        In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of adjustments of a normal and recurring nature) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for any other interim period or the fiscal year ending December 31, 2002. The financial statements presented in this Report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in APCOA/Standard's 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 29, 2002.

        Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 financial information to conform to the 2002 presentation.

2. Other Special Charges

        Included in "Other Special Charges" in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations are the following:

        The costs associated with registration for the period ended June 30, 2002, relate to professional fees incurred to register the 14% senior subordinated second lien notes. The costs associated with incremental integration costs and other include $257 for legal costs on terminated contracts, $300 for costs incurred for the debt reorganization of the parent company, $203 for cobra insurance costs of a prior subsidiary of the former parent company in accordance with ERISA requirements and $163 for retroactive rent and other adjustments. There were no special charges for the period ended June 30, 2001.

3. Exchange Offer

        On January 11, 2002, APCOA/Standard completed an unregistered exchange and recapitalization of a portion of its 9¹/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. APCOA/Standard received gross cash proceeds of $20.0 million and retired $91.1 million of its outstanding 9¹/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008. In exchange, APCOA/Standard issued $59.3 million of 14% Senior Subordinated Second Lien Notes due 2006 and 3,500 shares of 18% Senior Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, with a face value of $35.0 million which is mandatorily redeemable on June 15, 2008. In conjunction with the

6

exchange, the Company repaid $9.5 million of indebtedness under the Senior Credit Facility, paid $2.7 million in accrued interest relating to the $91.1 million of the 9¹/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 that were tendered, $9.7 million (including $1.3 million capitalized as debt issuance costs related to the amended and restated senior credit facility) in fees and expenses related to the exchange, which included a $3.0 million transaction advisory fee to AP Holdings, Inc. ("AP Holdings"), APCOA/Standard's parent company, and a repurchase of $1.5 million of redeemable preferred stock held by AP Holdings. The fees and expenses of $9.7 million related to the exchange and the amended and restated senior credit facility were provided for in the period ended December 31, 2001. The company repurchased $0.1 million of redeemable preferred stock held by AP Holdings on February 20, 2002 and $0.9 million on June 17, 2002.

        This exchange offer and recapitalization was accounted for as a "modification of terms" type of troubled debt restructuring as prescribed by FASB Statement No. 15, Accounting by Debtors and Creditors for Troubled Debt Restructurings ("FAS 15"). Under FAS 15, an effective reduction in principal or accrued interest does not result in the debtor recording a gain as long as the future contractual payments (principal and interest combined) under the restructured debt are more than the carrying amount of the debt before the restructuring. In those circumstances, the carrying amount of the original debt is not adjusted and the effects of any changes are reflected in future periods as a reduction in interest expense. That is, a constant effective interest rate is applied to the carrying amount of the debt between restructuring and maturity. The effective interest rate is the discount rate that equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the new terms with the unadjusted carrying amount of the debt.

        In addition, under FAS 15, when a debtor issues a redeemable equity interest in partial satisfaction of debt in conjunction with a modification of terms, the debtor recognizes no gain and the equity is recorded at its estimated fair value. Legal fees and other direct costs incurred by a debtor to effect a troubled debt restructuring are expensed as incurred, except for amounts incurred directly in granting an equity interest, if any.

        The accounting for this exchange under FAS 15 was as follows:

•

No gain was recognized by the Company for the excess of (a) the principal of the unregistered notes exchanged for the registered notes, over (b) the principal of the registered notes.



•

The unrecorded gain, which will remain part of the carrying value of the debt, will be amortized as a reduction to future interest expense using an effective interest rate applied to the combined balance of the unregistered and registered notes.

        On April 10, 2002, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (SEC file no. 333-86008) to offer to exchange up to $59,295,000 in aggregate principal amount of its registered 14% Senior Subordinated Notes (including unregistered notes paid as interest on unregistered notes). The registration statement, which was amended on May 24, 2002, June 17, 2002 and June 26, 2002, was declared effective by the Commission on June 28, 2002. The prospectus was supplemented on July 8, 2002 to increase the maximum amount of notes subject to the exchange to $60,298,900, thereby covering the notes issued as interest paid on June 15, 2002. In connection with the exchange offer, which expired on August 9, 2002, all outstanding unregistered 14% Notes were exchanged for registered 14% Notes.

        Long-term borrowings as of June 30, 2002 includes $15.6 million of carrying value in excess of principal.

4. Credit Facility

        The Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement as of January 11, 2002 with the LaSalle Bank National Association ("LaSalle") and Bank One, N.A., ("Bank One") (the lenders

7

under its prior senior credit facility) that restructured its prior $40.0 million senior credit facility into a new senior credit facility. The new facility consists of a $25.0 million revolving credit facility provided by LaSalle, which will expire on March 10, 2004, and a $15.0 million term loan held by Bank One amortizing with $5.0 million due on December 31, 2002 and the remainder due on March 10, 2004. APCOA/Standard utilizes the revolving new facility to provide readily accessible cash for working capital purposes and general corporate purposes and to provide standby letters of credit. The revolving new facility provides for cash borrowings up to the lesser of $25.0 million or 80% of its eligible accounts receivable (as defined therein) and includes a letter of credit facility with a sublimit of $8.0 million (or such greater amount as LaSalle may agree to for letters of credit). The revolving new facility bears interest based, at the Company's option, either on LIBOR plus 3.75% or the Alternate Base Rate (as defined below) plus 1.50%. The Company may elect interest periods of 1, 2, or 3 months for LIBOR-based borrowings. The Alternate Base Rate is the higher of (i) the rate publicly announced from time to time by LaSalle as its "prime rate" and (ii) the overnight federal funds rates plus 0.50%. LIBOR will at all times be determined by taking into account maximum statutory reserves required (if any). The interest rate applicable to the term loan is a fixed rate of 13.0%, of which cash interest at 9.5% will be payable monthly in arrears and 3.5% will accrue without compounding and be payable on March 10, 2004 or earlier maturity, whether pursuant to any permitted prepayment acceleration or otherwise. The new senior credit facility includes covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock or pay dividends and will contain certain other restrictions on its activities. It is secured by substantially all of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries' existing and after-acquired assets (including 100% of the stock of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of its existing and future foreign subsidiaries), by a first priority pledge of all of the common stock of the Company owned by AP Holdings and by all other existing and after-acquired property of the parent company. The senior credit facility was amended effective as of June 17, 2002 and June 30, 2002. At June 30, 2002, the Company had $3.4 million of letters of credit outstanding under the new facility and borrowings against the new facility aggregated $27.5 million.

5. Subsidiary Guarantors

        Substantially all of the Company's direct or indirect wholly owned domestic subsidiaries, other than inactive subsidiaries, fully, unconditionally, jointly and severally guarantee the Company's 14% Senior Subordinated Second Lien Notes due December 15, 2006, its 9¹/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008, and its senior credit facility. Financial statements of the guarantor subsidiaries are not separately presented because, in the opinion of management, such financial statements are not material to investors. The non-guarantor subsidiaries include joint ventures, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company organized under the laws of foreign jurisdictions, inactive subsidiaries, and bankruptcy remote subsidiaries formed in connection with joint ventures, all of which are included in the consolidated

8

financial statements. The following is summarized combined financial information for the Company, the guarantor subsidiaries of the Company and the non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company:

6. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

        On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141 and 142. SFAS No. 141 requires that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and also includes guidance on the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. The initial adoption of SFAS No. 141 did not affect the Company's results of operations or its financial position.

        The adoption of SFAS No. 142 eliminates the amortization of goodwill beginning January 1, 2002, and instead requires that the goodwill be tested for impairment. Transitional impairment tests of goodwill made during the six months ended June 30, 2002 did not require adjustment to the carrying value of its goodwill. As of June 30, 2002, the Company's definite lived intangible assets of $3,283, net of accumulated amortization of $2,956, primarily consisting of non-compete agreements, continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

        Amortization expense for intangible assets during the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $290. Estimated amortization expense for the remainder of 2002 and the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows:

11

        Actual results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and the pro forma results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2001 had we applied the non-amortization provisions of SFAS 142 in the prior period are as follows:

        In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which supersedes both SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions ("Opinion 30"), for the disposal of a segment of a business (as previously defined in that Opinion). SFAS No. 144 retains the fundamental provisions in SFAS No. 121 for recognizing and measuring impairment losses on long-lived assets held for use and long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, while also resolving significant implementation issues associated with SFAS No. 121. For example, SFAS No. 144 provides guidance on how a long-lived asset that is used as part of a group should be evaluated for impairment, establishes criteria for when a long-lived asset is held for sale, and prescribes the accounting for a long-lived asset that will be disposed of other than by sale. SFAS No. 144 retains the basic provisions of Opinion 30 on how to present discontinued operations in the income statement but broadens that presentation to include a component of an entity (rather than a segment of a business). Unlike SFAS No. 121, SFAS No. 144 does not provide guidance on impairment of goodwill. Rather, goodwill is evaluated for impairment under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002, and there was no impact to the results of operations or its financial position upon adoption.

        During the second quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company adopted a new accounting standard, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 01-14 (EITF 01-14), which provides guidance regarding recognition as revenue costs incurred that are directly reimbursed by clients. This change has no impact on operating earnings or net earnings. Historically, expenses directly reimbursed under management agreements have been netted against the expense in the statement of operations. After review of EITF 01-14, management has concluded that these reimbursable expenses billed to the customer should be recorded as revenue and these items have been reclassified in all prior periods to conform to the new presentation. For the three month period ended June 30, 2002, the impact is an increase of $88.6 million in both revenue and expenses, as compared to $87.1 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2001. For the six month period ended June 30, 2002, the impact is an increase of $175.5 million in both revenue and expenses, as compared to $174.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2001.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

        APCOA/Standard Parking, Inc. ("APCOA/Standard" or the "Company") operates in a single reportable segment, operating parking facilities under two types of arrangements: management contracts and leases. Under a management contract, APCOA/Standard typically receives a base monthly fee for managing the property and may also receive a small incentive bonus based on the achievement of facility revenues above a base amount among other factors. In some instances, APCOA/Standard also receives certain fees for ancillary services. Under lease arrangements, APCOA/Standard generally pays to the property owner either a fixed annual rental, a percentage of gross customer collections or a combination thereof. APCOA/Standard collects all revenues under lease arrangements and is responsible for most operating expenses, but it is typically not responsible for major maintenance or capital expenditures. As of June 30, 2002, APCOA/Standard operated approximately 83% of its 1,953 parking facilities under management contracts and approximately 17% under leases.

        Parking services revenue—lease contracts.    Parking services revenue related to lease contracts consists of all revenues received at a leased facility, including development fees, gains on sales of contracts and payments for exercising termination rights.

        Parking services revenue—management contracts.    Management contract revenue consists of management fees, including both fixed and revenue-based fees, and fees for ancillary services such as accounting, equipment leasing, payments received for exercising termination rights, consulting, insurance and other value-added services with respect to managed locations. Management contract revenue excludes gross customer collections at such locations. Management contracts generally provide APCOA/Standard a management fee regardless of the operating performance of the underlying facility.

        Reimbursement of management contract expenses.    Reimbursement of management contract expenses consists of the direct reimbursement from the property owner for operating expenses incurred under a management contract.

        Cost of parking services—lease contracts.    The cost of parking services under a lease arrangement consists of contractual rental fees paid to the facility owner and all operating expenses incurred in connection with operating the leased facility. Contractual fees paid to the facility owner are based on either a fixed contractual amount or a percentage of gross revenue, or a combination thereof. Generally, under a lease arrangement, APCOA/Standard is not responsible for major capital expenditures or property taxes.

        Cost of parking services—management contracts.    The cost of parking services under a management contract is generally passed through to the facility owner. As a result, these costs are included in reimbursed management contract expense. Several APCOA/Standard contracts, which are referred to as reverse management contracts, however, require APCOA/Standard to pay for certain costs that are offset by larger management fees.

        Reimbursed management contract expense.    Reimbursed management contract expense consists of the costs incurred on behalf of the property owner for operating expenses that are directly reimbursed under a management contract.

        General and administrative expenses.    General and administrative expenses include salaries, wages, travel and office-related expenses for the headquarters, field offices and supervisory employees.

Summary of Operating Facilities

        The following table reflects the Company's facilities at the end of the periods indicated:

        The Company's strategy is to add locations in core cities where a concentration of locations improves customer service levels and operating margins. In general, contracts added as set forth in the table above followed this strategy.

Results of Operations

        In analyzing the gross margins of APCOA/Standard, it should be noted that the cost of parking services for parking facilities under management contracts incurred in connection with the provision of management services is generally paid by its clients. Several management contracts, however, which are referred to as reverse management contracts, require the Company to pay for certain costs that are offset by larger management fees. Margins for lease contracts vary significantly not only due to operating performance, but also variability in parking rates in different cities and varying space utilization by parking facility type and location.

        The attacks that occurred on September 11th had an immediate effect on the Company's business at all of the 74 airports that it operates and, to a lesser extent, at isolated urban facilities near governmental institutions. Although business at airports had been declining before the September 11th attacks, an immediate significant decrease in airport revenues occurred following those events. Parking revenue at its airports declined 45.3% during the period of September 16 through 30, 2001, compared to the same period of 2000. Revenues at airports have recovered since the attacks to a 16.6% decline for the period December 15-30, 2001, and has improved further to a decline of 5.2% for the month of June 2002 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The Company does not know what the lasting effect of the September 11th attacks will be. However, there remain in place several stringent security measures that prohibit parking within a certain distance of the terminal, which continues to impact utilization of parking spaces. The airport parking transportation market represented approximately 21% of the Company's 2001 annual gross profit.

        The following should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Three Months ended June 30, 2002 Compared to Three Months ended June 30, 2001

        Parking services revenue—lease contracts.    Lease contract revenue decreased $4.9 million, or 11.8%, to $36.9 million in the second quarter of 2002, compared to $41.8 million in the second quarter of 2001. This decrease resulted from the net reduction of 32 leases through contract expirations and the downturn in general economic conditions.

        Parking services revenue—management contracts.    Management contract revenue decreased $0.9 million, or 4.1%, to $19.9 million in the second quarter of 2002, compared to $20.7 million in the second quarter of 2001. This decrease resulted from the net addition of 54 management contracts through internal growth, which was offset by the negative economic impact on our reverse management contracts.

        Reimbursement of management contract expenses.    Reimbursement of management contract expenses increased $1.5 million to $88.6 million for the second quarter of 2002, compared to

14

$87.1 million for the second quarter of 2001. The increase resulted from additional reimbursements for costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

        Cost of parking services—lease contracts.    Cost of parking services for lease contracts decreased $4.8 million, or 12.7%, to $32.9 million for the second quarter of 2002, compared to $37.7 million in the second quarter of 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from the net reduction of 32 leases through terminations and contract expirations. Gross margin for lease contracts increased to 10.7% for the second quarter of 2002 compared to 9.8% for the second quarter of 2001. This increase in gross margin resulted from improvement in operating expenses.

        Cost of parking services—management contracts.    Cost of parking services for management contracts decreased $0.1 million, or 1.3%, to $10.3 million for the second quarter of 2002, compared to $10.4 million in the second quarter of 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from the reduction of expenses related to reverse management contracts. Gross margin for management contracts declined to 48.4% in the second quarter of 2002 compared to 49.9% for the second quarter of 2001. Most management contracts have no cost of parking services related to them, as all costs are reimbursable to the Company. However, several contracts, which are referred to as reverse management contracts, require the Company to pay for certain costs that are offset by larger management fees. The decrease in gross margin for management contracts was related to the negative economic impact affecting airport travel volumes on these types of contracts.

        Reimbursed management contract expense.    Reimbursed management contract expense increased $1.5 million to $88.6 million for the second quarter of 2002, compared to $87.1 million for the second quarter of 2001. The increase resulted from additional costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

        General and administrative expenses.    General and administrative expenses decreased $0.6 million, or 7.5%, to $7.5 million for the second quarter of 2002, as compared to $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2001. This decrease resulted from cost savings, staff reductions and operating efficiencies.

        Other special charges.    The Company recorded $1.2 million of other special charges in the second quarter of 2002, as compared to no charges in the second quarter of 2001. The 2002 special charges relate primarily to legal costs incurred for the registration of the 14% senior subordinated second lien notes, costs related to terminated contracts, parent company debt reorganization, COBRA insurance costs of a prior subsidiary of our former parent in accordance with ERISA requirements, retroactive rent adjustments and other items. (see Note 3 of Item 1).

        Management fee—parent company.    The Company recorded $0.7 million of management fee in the second quarter of 2002, to our parent company, AP Holdings, pursuant to the Company's management agreement with AP Holdings. The actual payment of the management fee is determined by the terms and conditions as set forth in the senior credit facility. There was no management fee in the second quarter of 2001.

Six Months ended June 30, 2002 Compared to Six Months ended June 30, 2001

        Parking services revenue—lease contracts.    Lease contract revenue decreased $11.4 million, or 13.7%, to $71.7 million in the first six months of 2002, compared to $83.1 million in the first six months of 2001. This decrease resulted from the net reduction of 32 leases through contract expirations and the downturn in general economic conditions.

        Parking services revenue—management contracts.    Management contract revenue decreased $0.9 million, or 2.2%, to $40.3 million in the first six months of 2002, compared to $41.1 million in the first six months of 2001. This decrease resulted from the net addition of 54 management contracts through internal growth, which was offset by the negative economic impact on our reverse management contracts.

15

        Reimbursement of management contract expenses.    Reimbursement of management contract expenses increased $1.1 million to $175.5 million for the first six months of 2002, compared to $174.4 million for the first six months of 2001. The increase resulted from additional reimbursements for costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

        Cost of parking services—lease contracts.    Cost of parking services for lease contracts decreased $10.5 million, or 14.0%, to $64.5 million for the first six months of 2002, compared to $74.9 million in the first six months of 2001. This decrease resulted primarily from the net reduction of 32 leases through terminations and contract expirations. Gross margin for lease contracts increased to 10.1% for the first six months of 2002 compared to 9.8% for the first six months of 2001. This increase in gross margin resulted from improvement in operating expenses.

        Cost of parking services—management contracts.    Cost of parking services for management contracts increased $0.4 million, or 1.8%, to $21.2 million for the first six months of 2002, compared to $20.9 million in the first six months of 2001. This increase resulted primarily from the net addition of 54 management contracts through internal growth. Gross margin for management contracts declined to 47.3% in the first six months of 2002 compared to 49.3% for the first six months of 2001. Most management contracts have no cost of parking services related to them, as all costs are reimbursable to the Company. However, several contracts, which are referred to as reverse management contracts, require the Company to pay for certain costs that are offset by larger management fees. The decrease in gross margin for management contracts was related to the negative economic impact affecting airport travel volumes on these types of contracts.

        Reimbursed management contract expense.    Reimbursed management contract expense increased $1.1 million to $175.5 million for the first six months of 2002, compared to $174.4 million for the first six months of 2001. The increase resulted from additional costs incurred on the behalf of owners.

        General and administrative expenses.    General and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million, or 8.6%, to $15.2 million for the first six months of 2002, as compared to $16.6 million for the first six months of 2001. This decrease resulted from cost savings, staff reductions and operating efficiencies.

        Other special charges.    The Company recorded $1.5 million of other special charges in the first six months of 2002, as compared to no charges in the first six months of 2001. The 2002 special charges relate primarily to legal costs incurred for the registration of the 14% senior subordinated second lien notes, costs related to terminated contracts, parent company debt reorganization, insurance costs in accordance with ERISA requirements, retroactive rent adjustments and other items. (see Note 3 of Item 1).

        Management fee—parent company.    The Company recorded $1.5 million of management fee in the first six months of 2002 to our parent company, AP Holdings, pursuant to the Company's management agreement with AP Holdings. The actual payment of the management fee is determined by the terms and conditions as set forth in the senior credit facility. There was no management fee in the first six months of 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

        On January 11, 2002, the Company completed a restructuring of its publicly issued debt. The Company exchanged $91.1 million of its outstanding 9¹/4% notes due 2008 for $59.3 million of the Company's newly issued 14% senior subordinated second lien notes due 2006 and shares of the Company's newly issued Series D preferred stock. As part of these transactions, the Company also received $20.0 million in cash. The cash was used to repay borrowings under the Company's old credit facility, repurchase shares of existing redeemable Series C preferred stock owned by our parent

16

company and pay expenses incurred in connection with the restructuring transactions (including approximately $3.0 million to our parent company as a transaction advisory fee).

        The Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement as of January 11, 2002 with the LaSalle Bank National Association ("LaSalle") and Bank One, N.A., ("Bank One") (the lenders under its prior senior credit facility) that restructured its prior $40.0 million senior credit facility into a new senior credit facility. The new facility consists of a $25.0 million revolving credit facility provided by LaSalle, which will expire on March 1, 2004 and a $15.0 million term loan held by Bank One amortizing with $5.0 million due on December 31, 2002 and the remainder due on March 10, 2004. APCOA/Standard utilizes the revolving new facility to provide readily accessible cash for working capital purposes and general corporate purposes and to provide standby letters of credit. The revolving new facility provides for cash borrowings up to the lesser of $25.0 million or 80% of its eligible accounts receivable (as defined therein) and includes a letter of credit facility with a sublimit of $8.0 million (or such greater amount as LaSalle may agree to for letters of credit). The revolving new facility bears interest based, at the Company's option, either on LIBOR plus 3.75% or the Alternate Base Rate (as defined below) plus 1.50%. The Company may elect interest periods of 1, 2, or 3 months for LIBOR-based borrowings. The Alternate Base Rate is the higher of (i) the rate publicly announced from time to time by LaSalle as its "prime rate" and (ii) the overnight federal funds rates plus 0.50%. LIBOR will at all times be determined by taking into account maximum statutory reserves required (if any). The interest rate applicable to the term loan is a fixed rate of 13.0%, of which cash interest at 9.5% will be payable monthly in arrears and 3.5% will accrue without compounding and be payable on March 10, 2004 or earlier maturity, whether pursuant to any permitted prepayment acceleration or otherwise. The new senior credit facility includes covenants that limit the Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness, issue preferred stock or pay dividends and will contain certain other restrictions on its activities. It is secured by substantially all of its existing and future domestic subsidiaries' existing and after-acquired assets (including 100% of the stock of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of its existing and future foreign subsidiaries), by a first priority pledge of all of the common stock of the Company owned by AP Holdings and by all other existing and after-acquired property of the parent company. The senior credit facility was amended effective as of June 17, 2002 and June 30, 2002, at June 30, 2002, the Company had $3.4 million of letters of credit outstanding under the new facility and borrowings against the new facility aggregated $27.5 million.

        As a result of day-to-day activity at the parking locations, APCOA/Standard collects significant amounts of cash. Lease contract revenue is generally deposited into local APCOA/Standard bank accounts, with a portion remitted to the clients in the form of rental payments according to the terms of the leases. Under management contracts, some clients require APCOA/Standard to deposit the daily receipts into a local APCOA/Standard bank account, with the cash in excess of the Company's operating expenses and management fees remitted to the client at negotiated intervals. Other clients require the Company to deposit the daily receipts into client accounts and the clients then reimburse the Company for operating expenses and pay the Company's management fee subsequent to month-end. Some clients require a segregated account for the receipts and disbursements of locations.

        Gross daily collections are collected by APCOA/Standard and deposited into banks in one of three methods, which impact the Company's investment in working capital: (i) locations with revenues deposited into APCOA/Standard's bank accounts reduce the Company's investment in working capital, (ii) locations that have segregated accounts generally require no investment in working capital and (iii) accounts where the revenues are deposited into the clients' accounts increase the Company's investment in working capital. The Company's average investment in working capital depends on its contract mix. For example, an increase in contracts that required all cash deposited in the Company's bank accounts reduces its investment in working capital and improves its liquidity. During the period of January 1, 2002 to June 30, 2002, there was no material decrease in these types of contracts.

17

        APCOA/Standard's liquidity also fluctuates on an intra-month and intra-year basis depending on the contract mix and timing of significant cash payments such as the Company's scheduled interest payments. Additionally, the Company's ability to utilize cash deposited into APCOA/Standard local accounts is dependent upon the availability and movement of that cash into the Company's corporate account. For all these reasons, the Company from time to time carries significant cash balances, while at the same time utilizing the senior credit facility.

        The Company is required under certain contracts to provide performance bonds. These bonds are renewed on an annual basis. The market for performance bonds has been severely impacted by the events of September 11th and general economic conditions. Consequently, the market has contracted, resulting in an industry-wide requirement to provide additional collateral to the surety providers. As of July 31, 2002, the Company provided $4.7 million in letters of credit to collateralize its current performance bond program. The Company expects that it will have to provide additional collateral as the current bonds reach their respective expiration dates. While the Company expects that it will be able to provide sufficient collateral, given the market conditions, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so.

        The ability of the Company to generate cash from operations is partially dependent upon cash collected and generated from airport parking facilities. As a result of reduced air traffic and the impact of restrictions on the use of parking facilities within 300 feet of airport terminals and also reduced traffic at hotel and retail facilities, the Company may continue to experience a reduction in its revenue and cash flow from these operations.

        There can be no assurance that the Company's cash flow from operations, combined with additional borrowings under the senior credit facility and any future credit facility, will be available in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to repay its indebtedness, including the 9¹/4% notes or the 14% notes, or to fund our other liquidity needs or planned capital expenditures. The Company has significant indebtedness. At June 30, 2002, the Company had indebtedness under the 9¹/4% notes, the 14% notes, the senior credit facility, joint venture debentures, capital lease obligations, and other asset financing totaling approximately $146.4 million, including the Company's borrowings against its senior credit facility that aggregated $27.5 million. The Company may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness, including the senior credit facility and possibly including the 14% notes, on or before their respective maturities. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to refinance any of its indebtedness, including the senior credit facility and the 14% notes, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

        The Company has lease commitments of $28.0 for fiscal 2002. The leased properties generate sufficient cash flow to meet the base rent payment. In April 2002, the company entered into a $5.5 million capital lease arrangement for its leased vehicle program. The lease commitment for fiscal 2002 is approximately $2.3 million.

        The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.2 million at June 30, 2002, compared to $7.6 million at December 31, 2001.

Six Months ended June 30, 2002 Compared to Six Months ended June 30, 2001

        Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $4.5 million in the first six months of 2002 compared to net cash used in operating activities of $1.1 million in the first six months of 2001. Cash provided during 2002 included a $1.1 million increase in other liabilities and $20.0 million from the exchange (see note 3 of Item 1), which were offset by the payment of $9.0 million in fees and expenses related to the exchange (that had been provided at December 31, 2001), a decrease in accounts payable of $8.0 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million and $7.1 million in interest payments on the senior subordinated notes and the senior subordinated second lien notes. Net cash used in the first six months of 2001 included a $0.2 million increase in accounts receivable, a $1.2 million decrease

18

in accounts payable, a $3.8 million decrease in other liabilities due primarily to the $6.5 million interest payment on the senior subordinated notes, which was partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in prepaid and other assets.

        Cash used in investing activities totaled $0.5 million for the first six months of 2002 compared to $0.8 million for the first six months of 2001. Cash used in investing for the first six months of 2002 and the first six months of 2001 resulted from capital purchases to secure and/or extend leased facilities and investments in management information system enhancements.

        Cash used in financing activities totaled $4.7 million in the first six months of 2002 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $4.5 million for the first six months of 2001. The 2002 first six months activity included $1.1 million in payments on the senior credit facility, $2.5 million in redemption of redeemable preferred stock (see note 3 of Item 1), $0.7 million in payments of capital lease obligations and repayments on joint venture borrowings of $0.4 million. Cash provided by financing activities for the first six months of 2001 included $6.1 million in borrowings from the senior credit facility, offset by repayments on long-term and joint venture borrowings of $1.2 million, as well as payments of debt issuance costs of $0.3 million.

Special Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

        In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" as well as in this Quarterly Report generally. You should carefully review the risks described in this Quarterly Report as well as the risks described in other documents filed by the Company and from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, when used in this Quarterly Report, the words "anticipates," "plans," "believes," "estimates," and "expects" and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from the results expressed in, or implied by the Company or these forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise these forward-looking statements to reflect any future events or circumstances.

Cautionary Statements

        The Company continues to be subject to certain factors that could cause the Company's results to differ materially from expected and historical results (see the "Risk Factors" set forth in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (No. 333-86008) filed on April 10, 2002 (the "Registration Statement"), and the Company's 2001 Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2002.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates

        The Company's primary market risk exposure consists of risk related to changes in interest rates. Historically, the Company has not used derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

        The Company entered into a $25.0 million revolving variable rate senior credit facility in January 2002 (see note 4 of Item 1). Interest expense on such borrowing is sensitive to changes in the market rate of interest. If the Company were to borrow the entire $25.0 million available under the facility, a 1% increase in the average market rate would result in an increase in the Company's annual interest expense of $0.3 million.

19

        This amount is determined by considering the impact of the hypothetical interest rates on the Company's borrowing cost, but does not consider the effects of the reduced level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment. Due to the uncertainty of the specific changes and their possible effects, the foregoing sensitivity analysis assumes no changes in the Company's financial structure.

Foreign Currency Risk

        The Company's exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimal. All foreign investments are denominated in U.S. dollars, with the exception of Canada. The Company has approximately CAN$4.5 million of cash and no Canadian dollar denominated debt instruments at June 30, 2002. The Company does not hold any hedging instruments related to foreign currency transactions. The Company monitors foreign currency positions and may enter into certain hedging instruments in the future should it determine that exposure to foreign exchange risk has increased.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

        The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings which consist principally of lease and contract disputes and includes litigation with The County of Wayne relating to the management of parking facilities at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport. These claims and legal proceedings are considered routine, and incidental to the Company's business, and in the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect to these proceedings and claims will not materially affect the financial position, operations, or liquidity of the Company.

Item 5. Other Information

        On April 10, 2002, the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-4 (SEC file no. 333-86008) to offer to exchange up to $59,295,000 in aggregate principal amount of its registered 14% Senior Subordinated Notes (including unregistered notes paid as interest on unregistered notes). The registration statement, which was amended on May 24, 2002, June 17, 2002 and June 26, 2002, was declared effective by the Commission on June 28, 2002. The prospectus was supplemented on July 8, 2002 to increase the maximum amount of notes subject to the exchange to $60,298,900, thereby covering the notes issued as interest paid on June 15, 2002. In connection with the exchange offer, which expired on August 9, 2002, all outstanding unregistered 14% Notes were exchanged for registered 14% Notes.
