A MESSAGE 
TO OUR 
SHAREHOLDERS
- ------------

Robert P. McGrath
Dennis C. Kakures

     Over the last several years we have talked about the real inner strength 
of the Company.  In 1995 we instituted a program we call Exemplary Customer 
Service (ECS).  Our Credo, developed and pledged by our staff reads:

          I will, as a team member of McGrath, embrace our customers'
          needs, and deliver exemplary service to earn customer loyalty.

          I will do this by:

            - focusing on doing things right the first time
            - providing the utmost attention to detail, and
            - always doing what I say I am going to do, with integrity.

     Each of our offices conducts series of short meetings wherein our staff
acknowledges those peers who have performed beyond the call of duty, either in
the service of our customers or in the improvement of our product.  This program
has become much more than lip service; it is becoming an integral part of the
McGrath way of doing business.

     A year ago we cautioned that our record results were impacted positively by
the 1994 Northridge earthquake, and that it would be difficult to make up those
earnings in 1995.  We are pleased that total revenues for 1995 increased 4% over
1994 to $71,273,000, net income increased 6% to $13,843,000, and net income per
share increased 10% to $1.71 per share.  Once again this was the best year in
our history.

     Cash flow continues strong.  Rental assets increased by $7,713,000,
improvements increased by $5,796,000, dividends paid were $3,768,000 and stock
repurchased was $7,374,000 while our debt increased by only $1,130,000.

     Last year we discussed our purchase of Rentelco three years earlier, and
how that fits in with our philosophy--good people in a good working environment
produce the best results.  1995 was again an excellent year for Rentelco.

     This year we want to discuss Enviroplex.  Several years ago we funded this
startup company which wanted to make a contribution as a manufacturer of
portable classrooms.  In January 1995, we converted our note to a 73% ownership
interest and the results are now part of our consolidated financial statements. 
President Joe Sublett has done an excellent job and brings a wealth of
manufacturing know-how to Enviroplex.  We like to think that Joe produces the
best portable classrooms in the industry and his repeat customers tend to
confirm this position.  The head of the General Services Administration singled
out a "School Project of the Future" produced by a private contractor.  That
award-winning project had classrooms provided by Enviroplex.  This same
philosophy of good people and a good working environment has again produced good
results.

     Our business strategy calls for creating facility capabilities that our
competitors cannot duplicate.  This will enable us to quickly and efficiently
modify buildings to meet our customer's needs.  Our goal is to be more
responsive at less expense.  There is solid progress. Our new Houston facility
came on line in June 1995; we plan to move into our new Southern California
facility by the time you receive this report; the move to our new Northern
California facility is scheduled for the end of 1996.  Our new computer based
relational database programs that control our internal operations are about 70%
operational.

     Executing these operational plans requires dedication, a willingness to
embrace change and painstaking work.  As we said last year, shareholders like to
hear about pizzazz and we are serving up bricks, mortar and computers.  However,
we continue to emphasize that our long-term success lies in our ability to
provide a better service to our customers with our per transaction cost less
than that of our competitors. We continue to look for investment opportunities
in related areas.

     After the California school bond issue failed to pass in 1994, the money
for classroom modernization programs slowed down. On March 26, 1996, California
voters passed a 3 billion dollar bond measure.  A certain amount will be spent
on modernization programs and we are looking forward to participating in this
business.

     Given our strong balance sheet and cash flow and our prospects for 1996, we
are increasing our next quarterly dividend to $0.14 per share.

Sincerely,



  /s/ Robert P. McGrath                   /s/ Dennis C. Kakures

COMPANY
PROFILE
- -------


     Since its founding and incorporation in 1979, McGrath RentCorp has 
rented and sold relocatable modular offices designed to fill customers' 
temporary space needs.  These units are used as temporary offices adjacent to 
existing facilities, and as classrooms, sales offices, construction field 
offices and for a variety of other purposes.  Under the trade name "Mobile 
Modular Management Corporation", the Company conducts its rental and sales 
operations of relocatable modular offices from branch offices, two in 
California and one in Texas.

     In 1985, the Company expanded its operations into the rental of 
electronic test and measurement instruments.  Engineers, scientists and 
technicians use these instruments in evaluating the performance of their own 
electrical and electronic equipment, developing products, controlling 
manufacturing processes and in field service applications.  These instruments 
are rented primarily to electronics, industrial, research and aerospace 
companies.  The majority of the Company's inventory consists of instruments 
manufactured by Hewlett-Packard and Tektronix.  The Company conducts rental 
and sales operations of electronic instruments from its Northern California 
branch office and telecommunications test equipment from its Dallas, Texas 
branch office.

     In January 1995, the Company converted a $300,000 note receivable to a 
73.2% ownership interest in Enviroplex, Inc.  Enviroplex, Inc. manufactures 
portable classrooms built to the requirements of the California Division of 
the State Architect ("DSA") and sells primarily to school districts.

     The following table shows the revenue components, percentage of total 
revenues, original cost and net book value of equipment, and average 
utilization by product line for the past five years.

UTILIZATION IS CALCULATED AS OF THE END OF EACH MONTH BY DIVIDING THE ORIGINAL COST OF EQUIPMENT ON RENT BY THE TOTAL ORIGINAL COST OF ALL EQUIPMENT IN THE RENTAL INVENTORY; AND THE FIGURES SHOWN ARE THE AVERAGE OF SUCH MONTHLY FIGURES FOR EACH YEAR. 2 The Company has 252 employees. The operational compatibility between the two rental product lines results in the efficient use of overhead. No single customer of either product line has accounted for more than 10% of the Company's total revenues generated in any given year. Our business is not seasonal, except for the rental of classrooms, which is heaviest in the several months prior to the opening of school each fall. We are a company with a marketing sense throughout. We are constantly searching for ways both to streamline our service and to raise the quality of each relocatable office or instrument we rent. We are not only renting products, we are selling an old-fashioned idea: Paying attention to our customers pays off. OUR PRODUCTS - -------- RELOCATABLE MODULAR OFFICES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Relocatable modular offices are designed for use as temporary office space and may be towed from one location to another. Offices vary from simple single-unit construction site offices to attractive multi-module facilities, complete with wood exteriors and mansard roofs. The rental fleet includes a full range of styles and sizes. We consider our relocatable offices to be among the most attractive and well designed available. The units are constructed with wood siding which are sturdily built and physically capable of a useful life often exceeding 18 years. Units are provided with installed heat, air conditioning, lighting, electricity and floor covering, and may have customized interiors including partitioning, carpeting, cabinetwork and plumbing facilities. The market for relocatable modular offices is broad. Businesses which have a need for additional space and have adjacent land or a parking lot are potential customers. Our largest single demand is for temporary classrooms. We believe the demand for classrooms is caused by shifting and fluctuating school populations, the lack of state funds for new construction, and the need for temporary classroom space during reconstruction of older schools. Other applications include sales offices, administrative offices for health care facilities, universities and museums. Large multi-modular complexes are used by the aerospace, energy and utility industries, and governmental agencies. Our branch offices, as well as our corporate office, are housed in various sizes of relocatable buildings. The Company purchases new relocatable modular offices from various manufacturers who build to the Company's design specifications. None of the principal suppliers are affiliated with the Company. The Company believes that the loss of any one of these suppliers would not have a material adverse effect on its operations. Since most of our customer requirements are to fill temporary space needs, the Company's marketing emphasis is on rentals rather than sales. The Company solicits customers through extensive yellow-page advertising, telemarketing and direct mail. Customers are encouraged to visit an inventory center to view different models on display and to see the branch office, which itself is a working example of a relocatable modular office. Rental periods range from one month to five years, with a typical rental period of one year. Most rental agreements provide no purchase options, and when a rental agreement does provide the customer with a purchase option, it is generally on terms attractive to the Company. 3 [PHOTO OF BUILDING] OUR PRODUCTS - -------- The customer is responsible for the cost of transporting the unit to the site, preparation of the site, installation of the unit, dismantle and return of the unit to one of the Company's three inventory centers, and certain costs for customization. We maintain the units in good working order while on rent. Upon return, the units are refurbished for subsequent use including floor tile repairs, roof maintenance, cleaning, painting and cosmetic work. In addition to operating its rental fleet, the Company sells relocatable offices to customers who have a direct and permanent use for such units. These sales arise out of our marketing efforts for the rental fleet and manufactured classrooms. Such sales can be of either new units or used units from the rental fleet or new manufactured classrooms. Of 1995 sales to direct-use customers, 58% arose from the Company's rental operations (20% were new equipment and 80% were used) and 42% were newly manufactured classrooms from Enviroplex, Inc. Competition in the rental and sale of relocatable modular offices is intense. Many firms are engaged in the rental of relocatable modular offices, and some have substantially greater financial resources than the Company. Significant competitive factors in the rental business include availability, price, services, reliability and the quality and attractiveness of the units. McGrath RentCorp markets high-quality, well constructed and attractive offices. We believe that this strategy, together with our emphasis on prompt and efficient customer service, gives us a competitive advantage. We are determined to offer quick response to requests for information, experienced assistance for the first-time user, rapid delivery and timely maintenance of our units. The Company has a sales and maintenance staff trained in the Company's tradition of excellence in service. We are eager to be accountable for the quality of the product we rent and for the excellence of our response to customer requests. In fact, we enjoy the satisfaction of a job well done, and we take pains to see that we never lose this company ethic. CLASSROOM RENTALS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The rental of relocatable modular offices to school districts for use as portable classrooms, restroom buildings and administrative offices for kindergarten through grade twelve (K-12) accounted for approximately 34% of the Company's relocatable modular rental revenues during 1995 compared to 38% in 1994. The Company believes the decline in rental revenues derived from school districts is the result of a lack of available modernization and reconstruction funds due to the failed 1994 school bond measure. In California (where most of the Company's rentals to school districts have occurred), school districts are permitted to purchase only portable classrooms which have been built to the requirements of the California Division of the State Architect ("DSA"). However, school districts may rent classrooms that meet either the Department of Housing ("DOH") or DSA requirements. Prior to 1988, the majority of the classrooms in the Company's rental fleet were built to the DOH requirements, and since 1988 the majority of new classrooms have been built to the DSA requirements. In 1988, California adopted a law which limits the term for which school districts may rent portable classrooms built to DOH standards to three years (under a waiver process), and which also requires the school board to indemnify the State against any claims arising out of the use of such classrooms. As a consequence, the tendency is for the Company to rent the DOH classrooms for shorter periods and to rent the DSA classrooms for longer periods. In 1993, a new law went into effect that allowed school districts that already had DOH classrooms to continue to rent them for an additional three years (i.e. up to six years in total). New orders for DOH classrooms placed after 1992 are restricted to the three year limitation as before. New legislation has been adopted that eliminates the waiver process after September 30, 1997 or the expiration of the waiver in effect, whichever is longer. New regulations are in place that allow the use of the DOH classrooms for periods up to 24 months anytime after September 30, 1997, provided they receive a "Temporary Certification" from DSA. 4 All of the Company's DOH classrooms, with the exception of the 24'x40' standard classrooms, are also suitable for rent to non-school customers for commercial uses. Generally, the 24'x40' standard classrooms are not popular for commercial use. The Company has continued to rent returned DOH 24'x40' standard classrooms to school districts since 1988 and there is no reason to believe that it will not continue to do so in the future. However, there can be no assurance that this law or new laws may not adversely affect the Company's future classroom rental business. The following table shows the relationship of 24'x40' standard DOH classrooms to DSA equipment marketed to school districts as of December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993.

UTILIZATION IS CALCULATED AS OF DECEMBER 31 BY DIVIDING THE ORIGINAL COST OF EQUIPMENT ON RENT BY THE TOTAL ORIGINAL COST OF ALL EQUIPMENT IN THE RENTAL INVENTORY CATEGORY. 5 ELECTRONIC TEST AND MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OUR PRODUCTS - -------- McGrath RentCorp commenced its electronic test and measurement instrument rental business in 1985, carrying primarily general purpose equipment. In 1991, the Company expanded its rental equipment base through the purchase of a telecommunication test equipment rental business conducted under the name "Rentelco" in Richardson, Texas (Dallas Area). The Company's rental inventory includes electronic instruments such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, signal generators, frequency counters, protocol analyzers, cable locaters, fiber optic and sonet equipment. A typical rental period is from one to six months. The Company also rents electronic instruments from other rental companies and re-rents the instruments to customers. The Company endeavors to keep its equipment fresh and attempts to sell equipment so that the majority of the inventory is less than five years old. The business of renting electronic test and measurement instruments is an industry which emerged approximately 30 years ago, and which today has equipment on rent or available for rent in the United States with an aggregate original cost of several hundred million dollars. While there is a broad customer base for the rental of such instruments, most rentals are to electronics, industrial, research and aerospace companies. Although the Company has targeted the rental market in California and Texas, test equipment is shipped to other states. The industry is dominated by four major companies. Two of these companies are much larger than the Company, have substantially greater financial resources and are well established in the industry with large inventories of equipment, several branch offices and experienced staffs. We believe that customers rent electronic test and measurement instruments for many reasons. Customers frequently need equipment for short-term projects, for back-up to avoid costly down-time and to evaluate new products. Delivery times for the purchase of such equipment can be lengthy; thus, renting allows the customer to obtain the equipment expeditiously. We also believe that a substantial portion of electronic test and measurement instruments are used for research and development projects where the relative certainty of rental costs can facilitate cost control and be useful in bidding for government contracts. Finally, as is true with the rental of any equipment, renting rather than purchasing may better satisfy the customer's budgetary constraints. The electronic test and measurement and the relocatable modular office product lines share common facilities, financing, senior management, and operating and accounting systems. Each product line has its own sales and technical personnel. 6 [PHOTO OF TWO EMPLOYEES PHOTO OF PIECE OF TEST EQUIPMENT] CONSOLIDATED QUARTERLY (UNAUDITED) AND FIVE YEAR SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA - -------------------------------------

1. DECLARED JANUARY 1995. 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS - ------------ Revenues are derived primarily from the rental of relocatable modular offices and electronic test and measurement instruments. The Company has expanded the rental inventory of relocatable modular offices and electronic instruments. This expansion has been funded through internal cash flow and conventional bank financing. The major portion of the Company's revenue is derived from rentals and rental related services, comprising approximately 78% of total revenues in 1995. Over the past three years relocatable modular offices comprised 76% of the cumulative rental revenues, and test and measurement instruments comprised 24% of the cumulative rental revenues. Classrooms are a significant part of the Company's business (see "Our Products" - "Classroom Rentals"). The Company sells both previously rented and new relocatable modular offices to customers who have a direct and permanent use for such units, and through its majority owned subsidiary Enviroplex, Inc., sells DSA classrooms directly to school districts. The Company also acts as a dealer of new relocatable modular offices and is licensed as a dealer by governmental agencies in California and Texas. The Company also sells units from its rental inventory of test and measurement equipment. Revenues from sales of both modular and electronic equipment have comprised approximately 19% of total revenues over the last three years. FISCAL YEARS 1995 AND 1994 - ------------ Rental revenues for 1995 decreased $86,000 from 1994. The rental revenue increase from electronics of $1,723,000 was offset by a $1,809,000 decrease in rental revenues from relocatable modular offices. The rental revenue decline for modulars was primarily due to the return of a significant amount of equipment (220 unit complex) from a single customer which had generated rental billings of $1,290,000 per year. Average utilization declined for both modular equipment, from 79.3% to 73.9%, and for electronics equipment, from 56.0% to 55.2%, as compared to 1994. Rental related services for 1995 decreased $75,000 from 1994 with gross margin increasing from 34% in 1994 to 41% in 1995. The increase in gross margin was due to additional incentive fees earned by the Company for equipment management. Sales and related services in 1995 increased $3,139,000 (25%) over 1994. The sales volume increase is due to the contribution of the Company's majority owned subsidiary, Enviroplex, Inc., which had sales of $4,775,000. Gross margin on sales and related services remained the same at 32% for 1995 and 1994. Sales and related services fluctuate from quarter to quarter and from year to year depending on customer demands and requirements. Interest expense in 1995 increased $664,000 (31%) over 1994 as a result of slightly higher borrowing levels combined with a higher average interest rate of 7.3% in 1995 versus 5.6% in 1994. Income before provision for taxes increased $627,000 (3%) in 1995 over 1994 while net income increased $839,000 (6%) due to a lower effective tax rate in 1995 of 39.8% compared to 41.9% in 1994. Earnings per share increased 10%, from $1.55 in 1994 to $1.71 in 1995, primarily as a result of fewer outstanding shares. 8 FISCAL YEARS 1994 AND 1993 - ------------ Rental revenues for 1994 increased $5,456,000 (13%) over 1993. Rentals from both modular and electronic equipment contributed to the increase in rental revenues, with 52% ($2,821,000) derived from modulars due in part to the requirements caused by the January 1994 earthquake in Northridge, California and 48% ($2,635,000) derived from electronics. Generally, rates on new leases in 1994 were higher than in 1993. Average utilization improved for both modular equipment, from 77.0% to 79.3%, and electronics equipment, from 52.3% to 56.0%, as compared to 1993. Rental related services increased $1,772,000 (23%) over 1993. The increase in rental related services resulted from significant requirements for site work on five projects (one earthquake related) of $1,063,000, coupled with increased shipments of modular equipment in part related to the Northridge earthquake. Gross margin for rental related services increased from 29% in 1993 to 34% in 1994. Sales and related services in 1994 increased $3,932,000, a 45% increase over 1993. During 1994, ten significant sales of rental equipment accounted for $4,653,000 (37%) of the sales volume. The largest sale for the year occurred to a school district in the amount of $1,183,000 and consisted of modular classrooms which had been on rent to the school district. Sales and related services from year to year have fluctuated depending on customer requirements. Gross margin on sales and related services increased from 28% in 1993 to 32% in 1994. Depreciation on rental equipment in 1994 increased $576,000, a 6% increase over 1993 due to the increase in rental equipment. Selling and administrative expenses increased $1,763,000, a 15% increase over 1993 primarily due to increased personnel costs which includes bonuses, additional support staff, modular repair and maintenance labor and temporary labor costs. Interest expense in 1994 increased $406,000, a 23% increase over 1993, as a result of an increase in the average interest rate from 4.5% in 1993 to 5.6% in 1994 while average borrowing levels remained approximately the same during 1994. Income before provision for income taxes increased 29% in 1994 over 1993 and represented 33% of the total revenues compared with 30% in 1993. Net income increased only 22% due to a higher effective tax rate of 41.9% in 1994 as compared to 38.6% in 1993. 9 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - --------- The Company requires substantial capital in order to maintain an available inventory of relocatable modular offices and electronic test and measurement instruments necessary to satisfy customer requirements in a timely manner. In 1995, as in prior years, the primary use of cash was for the purchase of rental equipment. During the last three years, the growth of the rental inventory has been financed primarily by cash flow from operations and bank borrowings. During 1995, the Company demonstrated its strong cash flow by purchasing $17,252,000 of rental equipment, purchasing $6,340,000 of land improvements, furniture and equipment, repurchasing $7,374,000 of common stock, paying dividends of $3,768,000, and paying income taxes of $7,457,000, while increasing its debt by only $1,130,000 during the year. The Company believes that bank borrowings will continue to be a source of funds for the purchase of rental equipment. As the Company's assets have grown, it has been able to negotiate increases in the borrowing limit under its general bank line of credit to its current $50,000,000 limit consistent with its increased asset base. Although no assurance can be given, the Company believes it will continue to be able to negotiate higher limits on its general bank line of credit adequate to meet capital requirements not otherwise met by operational cash flows. Additionally, the Company guarantees a $1,000,000 line of credit for its majority owned subsidiary. The Company had a total liabilities to equity ratio of 1.04 to 1 and 1.03 to 1 as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, respectively. The debt (notes payable) to equity ratio was 0.43 to 1 at December 31, 1995 and 1994. During 1994, the Company repurchased 158,354 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,533,000 (or an average price of $15.99 per share). During 1995, the Company repurchased 436,066 shares of its outstanding common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $7,374,000 (or an average price of $16.91 per share). These repurchases were made in the over-the-counter market (NASDAQ) and through privately negotiated, large block transactions. The Company believes that its needs for working capital and capital expenditures through 1996 and beyond will adequately be met by cash flow and bank borrowings. IMPACT OF INFLATION - --------- Although the Company cannot precisely determine the effect of inflation, from time to time it has experienced increases in the cost of rental equipment, as well as operating and interest expenses. Because most of its rentals are relatively short term, the Company has generally been able to pass on such increased costs through increases in rental rates and selling prices. 10 PROPERTIES - ---------- The Company currently conducts its operations from five locations. Inventory centers, at which relocatable modular offices are displayed, refurbished and stored are located in San Lorenzo, California (San Francisco Bay Area), Mira Loma, California (Los Angeles Area), and Pasadena, Texas (Houston Area). These three branches conduct rental and sales operations from multi-unit, relocatable modular offices, serving as working models of the Company's product. Electronic test and measurement instrument rental and sales operations are conducted from the San Lorenzo facility and from the Rentelco facility in Richardson, Texas (Dallas Area). The Company's majority owned subsidiary, Enviroplex, Inc., manufactures portable classrooms from its facility in Stockton, California (San Francisco Bay Area). The Company has purchased land at three of the branch locations during the last few years; 137.7 acres in Livermore, California (San Francisco Bay Area) in 1991, 50 acres in Pasadena, Texas (Houston Area) in 1992 and 78.5 acres in Mira Loma, California (Los Angeles Area) in 1993. These land purchases will allow the Company to consolidate its relocatable modular office storage lots and operations into one location in each of Northern California, Southern California and Texas. The Company has completed the Pasadena, Texas facility and anticipates completion of the development of the remaining land and the relocation of branch office operations during 1996 and 1997. The following table sets forth for each branch the acres leased, the acres owned, and the total acres at December 31, 1995.

THE ACCOMPANYING NOTES ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 15 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS McGrath RentCorp (the "Company"), also doing business as "Mobile Modular Management Corporation" and "Rentelco", is engaged in the business of renting and selling relocatable modular offices and electronic test and measurement instruments with related accessories primarily in California and Texas. Although the Company's primary emphasis is on rentals, both modulars and instruments are also sold to direct-use customers. The rental of relocatable modular offices to school districts for use as portable classrooms, restroom buildings and administrative offices for kindergarten through grade twelve (K-12) accounted for approximately 34% in 1995 and 38% in 1994 and 1993 of the Company's modular rental revenues. In January 1995, McGrath RentCorp converted a $300,000 note receivable to a 73.2% ownership interest in Enviroplex, Inc. Enviroplex, Inc. manufactures portable classrooms built to the requirements of the California Division of the State Architect ("DSA") and sells primarily to school districts. During 1995, Enviroplex sales were $4,867,064 which included $92,388 of sales to the Company. NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. RENTAL, RENTAL RELATED SERVICES AND SALES AND RELATED SERVICES REVENUE Rental revenue is recognized under the "operating method" of accounting for the majority of leases. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis in those cases where equipment is leased with uneven payment terms. Rental billings for more than one month are recorded as deferred income and recognized as rental revenue when earned. Rental related services revenue is primarily associated with relocatable modular office leases and consists of billings to customers for delivery, installation, modifications, skirting, additional site related work, return delivery and dismantle. These services are recognized in the period the services are performed and accepted. Sales and related services revenue is recognized upon delivery and acceptance of the equipment by the customer. SALES TYPE LEASES Certain leases meeting the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", are accounted for as sales type leases. For these leases, sales revenue and the related accounts receivable are recognized upon execution of the leases and unearned interest is recognized over the lease term on a basis which results in a constant rate of return on the unrecovered lease investment (See Note 3). DEPRECIATION AND MAINTENANCE Rental equipment, land improvements, furniture and equipment are depreciated on a straight-line basis for financial reporting purposes and on an accelerated basis for income tax purposes. The costs of major refurbishment of relocatable modular offices are capitalized to the extent the refurbishment significantly improves the quality and adds value to the equipment. Land improvements consist of development costs incurred to build storage and maintenance facilities at each of the relocatable modular branch offices. The following estimated useful lives and residual values are used for financial reporting purposes: Rental equipment: Relocatable modular offices 18 years, 18% residual value Electronic test instruments 5 to 8 years, no residual value Accessory equipment 7 to 18 years, 0% to 18% residual value Land improvements, furniture and equipment 3 to 50 years, no residual value Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. WARRANTY SERVICE COSTS Sales of new relocatable modular offices, electronic test equipment and related accessories are typically covered by warranties provided by the manufacturer of the products sold. The Company provides limited 90-day warranties for certain sales of used rental equipment. Although the Company's policy is to provide reserves for warranties when required for specific circumstances, the Company has not found it necessary to establish such reserves to date. INCOME TAXES Provision has been made for deferred income taxes based upon the amount of taxes payable in future years, after considering changes in tax rates and other statutory provisions that will be in effect in those years (See Note 5). 16 FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company believes that its financial instruments (cash and notes payable) carrying amounts approximate fair value. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions in determining reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE Net income per common and common equivalent share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during each period. Common stock equivalents result from dilutive stock options computed using the treasury stock method. The difference between primary and fully diluted earnings per share was not significant in any period presented. NOTE 3 - SALES TYPE LEASE RECEIVABLES The Company has entered into several sales type leases. The minimum lease payments receivable and the net investment included in accounts receivable for such leases at December 31, 1995 and 1994 are as follows:
--------------------------------------------------------------- 1995 1994 ------------ ------------- Gross minimum lease receivable $ 4,127,199 $ 4,226,079 Less - Unearned interest (875,735) (919,602) ----------- ----------- Net investment in sales type lease receivables $ 3,251,464 $ 3,306,477 --------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------ Year ended December 31, 1996 $ 2,222,428 1997 1,003,370 1998 574,971 1999 223,664 2000 67,805 2001 and thereafter 34,961 ------------ $ 4,127,199 ------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------
NOTE 4 - NOTES PAYABLE The Company's unsecured line of credit agreement (the "Agreement") with its banks expires June 30, 1996 and permits it to borrow up to $50,000,000 of which $37,075,000 was outstanding as of December 31, 1995. The Agreement requires the Company to pay interest at prime or, at the Company's election, other rate options available under the Agreement. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee on the daily average unused portion of the available line. Among other restrictions, the Agreement requires (i) the Company to maintain shareholders' equity of not less than $68,752,000 plus 50% of all net income generated subsequent to December 31, 1993 plus 90% of any new stock issuance proceeds (restricted equity at December 31, 1995 is $82,176,000), (ii) a debt-to-equity ratio (excluding deferred income taxes) of not more than 3 to 1, (iii) interest coverage (income from operations compared to interest expense) of not less than 2 to 1 and (iv) no payment of cash dividends in excess of 50% of one year's earnings without the bank's consent. If the Company does not amend or renegotiate the present Agreement for an additional time period prior to its expiration date, the principal amount outstanding at that time will be converted to a five-year term loan with principal due and payable in twenty (20) consecutive quarterly installments. Additionally, the Company guarantees a $1,000,000 line of credit at the prime rate for its majority owned subsidiary of which $5,000 was outstanding as of December 31, 1995. The following information relates to the lines of credit for each of the following periods:

19 NOTE 6 - COMMON STOCK AND STOCK OPTIONS In 1985, the Company established an Employee Stock Ownership Plan, as amended. Under the terms of the plan, the Company makes annual contributions in the form of cash or common stock of the Company to a trust for the benefit of eligible employees. The amount of the contribution is determined annually by the Board of Directors. A contribution of $550,000 was approved for 1995 and 1994 and $525,000 for 1993. The Company adopted a 1987 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1987 Plan"), effective December 14, 1987, under which options to purchase common stock may be granted to officers and key employees of the Company. The plan provides for the award of options at a price not less than the fair market value of the stock as determined by the Board of Directors on the date the options are granted. Under the 1987 Plan, options have been granted with an exercise price of $6.125 and $13.875 per share. The options become exercisable over the term of the related option agreements. Option activity and options exercisable for the three years ended December 31, 1995, 1994 and 1993 were as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1995 1994 1993 -------- -------- -------- Options outstanding at January 1 322,292 326,692 339,382 Options granted during the year - - - Options exercised during the year (59,719) (4,400) (8,000) Options terminated during the year (6,150) - (4,690) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Options outstanding at December 31 256,423 322,292 326,692 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Options exercisable at December 31 163,328 186,827 153,717 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------
As of December 31, 1995, 664,840 options remain available for future grant under the 1987 Plan. In 1991, the Board of Directors adopted a Long-Term Stock Bonus Plan (the "LTB Plan") under which 200,000 shares of common stock are reserved for grant to officers and other key employees. The stock bonuses granted under the LTB Plan are evidenced by written Stock Bonus Agreements covering specified performance periods. The LTB Plan provides for the grant of stock bonuses upon achievement of certain levels of return on equity during a specified period. Stock bonuses earned under the LTB Plan vest over 5 years from the grant date contingent on the employee's continued employment with the Company. As of December 31, 1995, 37,041 shares of common stock have been granted, of which 24,242 shares of common stock are vested. Future grants of 36,798 shares of common stock are authorized by the Board of Directors to be issued under the LTB Plan in the event the Company reaches the highest level of achievement. Compensation expense for 1995, 1994 and 1993 under these plans was $76,318, $53,726 and $31,742, respectively, and is based on a combination of the anticipated shares to be granted, the amount of vested shares previously issued and fluctuations in market price of the Company's common stock. The Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. These purchases are to be made in the over-the-counter market and/or through large block transactions at such repurchase price as the officers shall deem appropriate and desirable on behalf of the Company. All shares repurchased by the Company are to be canceled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. In 1994, the Company repurchased 158,354 shares of common stock for an aggregate repurchase price of $2,532,591 or an average price of $15.99 per share. In 1995, the Company repurchased 436,066 shares of common stock for an aggregate repurchase price of $7,374,279 or an average price of $16.91 per share. As of December 31, 1995, 495,000 shares remain authorized for repurchase. In January 1995, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend on its common stock of $0.11 per share related to fourth quarter 1994. The dividend was paid on January 31, 1995. 20 SHAREHOLDER MATTERS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- STOCK ACTIVITY - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company's common stock is traded in the NASDAQ National Market System under the symbol "MGRC".
