MCGRATH RENTCORP
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2000


NOTE 1. CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The consolidated financial information for the three months ended March
31, 2000 has not been audited, but in the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals, consolidation and eliminating
entries) necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated results of
operations, financial position, and cash flows of McGrath RentCorp (the
"Company") have been made. The consolidated results of the three months ended
March 31, 2000 should not be considered as necessarily indicative of the
consolidated results for the entire year. It is suggested that these
consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest Form 10-K.

NOTE 2. BUSINESS SEGMENTS

The Company defines its business segments based on the nature of
operations for the purpose of reporting under Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information" (SFAS 131). The Company's three reportable segments are Mobile
Modular Management Corporation (Modulars), McGrath-RenTelco (Electronics), and
Enviroplex. The operations of these three segments are described in the notes to
the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's latest Form
10-K. As a separate corporate entity, Enviroplex revenues and expenses are
separately maintained from Modulars and Electronics. Excluding interest expense,
allocations of revenues and expenses not directly associated with Modulars or
Electronics are generally allocated to these segments based on their pro-rata
share of direct revenues. Interest expense is allocated between Modulars and
Electronics based on their pro-rata share of average rental equipment, accounts
receivable and customer security deposits. The Company does not report total
assets by business segment. Summarized financial information for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 for the Company's reportable segments is
shown in the following table:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements, which
constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements appear in a number of
places. Such statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "believes", "expects", "may", "estimates", "will", "should",
"plans" or "anticipates" or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or
comparable terminology, or by discussions of strategy. Readers are cautioned
that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, and that actual
results may vary materially from those in the forward-looking statements as a
result of various factors. These factors include the effectiveness of
management's strategies and decisions, general economic and business conditions,
new or modified statutory or regulatory requirements and changing prices and
market conditions. This report identifies other factors that could cause such
differences. No assurance can be given that these are all of the factors that
could cause actual results to vary materially from the forward-looking
statements.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

The Company's core rental businesses both continue to grow steadily.
Rental revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased $2,322,000
(12%) over the comparative period in 1999. Mobile Modular Management Corporation
("MMMC") contributed $1,038,0000 and McGrath-RenTelco contributed $1,284,000 of
the three-month increase. MMMC's rental revenues increased as a result of having
an average of $18,424,000 more equipment on rent compared to a year earlier even
though the average monthly yield for all modular equipment has declined from
1.94% in 1999 to 1.90% in 2000. Modular average utilization for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, excluding new equipment inventory, was 80.4% compared to
82.2% for the same period in 1999. McGrath-RenTelco's rental revenue increase
can be attributed to strong communication equipment rental activity, which
resulted in an average of $7,958,000 more equipment on rent compared to a year
earlier. Additionally, the average monthly yield for all electronics equipment
increased from 3.22% in 1999 to 3.40% in 2000. Electronics average utilization
for the three months ended March 31, 2000 was 56.3% compared to 51.3% for the
same period in 1999.

Rental related services revenues for the three months ended March 31,
2000 increased $888,000 (36%) over the comparative period in 1999. One large
project with extensive modification and site related work accounted for 46% of
the increase. Gross margin on rental related services for the three-month period
increased from 45% in 1999 to 48% in 2000.

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 declined $170,000 (2%)
as compared to the same period in 1999. Consolidated gross margin on sales
declined slightly for the three-month period from 29% in 1999 to 28% in 2000.
Sales continue to occur routinely as a normal part of the Company's rental
business; however, these sales can fluctuate from quarter to quarter and year to
year depending on customer demands and requirements.

Enviroplex's backlog of orders as of March 31, 2000 and 1999 was
$15,397,000 and $4,043,000, respectively. Backlog is not significant in MMMC's
modular business or in McGrath-RenTelco's electronics business.

Depreciation on rental equipment for the three months ended March 31,
2000 increased $690,000 (15%) over the comparative period in 1999 due to higher
amounts of rental equipment. For the three months ended March 31, 2000, average
modular rental equipment, at cost, increased $22,741,000 (10%) and average
electronics rental equipment, at cost, increased $8,224,000 (12%) over the 1999
comparative period. Other direct costs of operations for the three months ended
March 31, 2000 increased $648,000 (21%) over the same period in 1999 primarily
due to increased maintenance and repair expenses related to the modular fleet.



6

Selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March
31, 2000 increased $496,000 (12%) over the comparative period in 1999 primarily
due to higher personnel and benefit costs, including performance and incentive
bonuses.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2000 increased
$428,000 (28%) over the 1999 comparative period as a result of a higher average
borrowing level and a higher average interest rate in 2000. The average debt
increase resulted from rental equipment purchases, repurchases of the Company's
common stock and dividend payments made during the last twelve months.

Income before provision for taxes for the three months ended March 31,
2000 increased $452,000 (5%) to $9,314,000 while net income increased $1,650,000
(41%) to $5,703,000 or $0.45 per diluted share over the comparative period in
1999. The higher percentage increase in net income is due to the impact of a
one-time charge of $1,367,000 recognized in the first quarter of 1999
representing the cumulative effect of an accounting change, net of tax.
Excluding the impact of this one-time charge, net income for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 was $5,420,000 or $0.39 per diluted share resulting in
comparative earnings increasing 5% and comparative earnings per share increasing
15% in 2000.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary
information with respect to such forward-looking statements.

The Company's operations produced a positive cash flow for the three
months ended March 31, 2000 of $12,286,000 as compared to $13,791,000 for the
year earlier period. During 2000, the primary uses of cash have been to purchase
additional rental inventory to satisfy customer requirements, to repurchase
shares of the Company's common stock on the open market, and to pay dividends to
the Company's shareholders.

The Company had a total liabilities to equity ratio of 2.18 to 1 and
2.12 to 1 as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. The debt
(notes payable) to equity ratios were 1.20 to 1 and 1.16 to 1 as of March 31,
2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively. Both ratios have increased since
December 31, 1999 partially as a result of the Company's stock repurchase
program.

The Company has made purchases of shares of its common stock from time
to time in the over-the-counter market (NASDAQ) and/or through privately
negotiated, large block transactions under an authorization of the Board of
Directors. Shares repurchased by the Company are cancelled and returned to the
status of authorized but unissued stock. During the three months ended March 31,
2000, the Company repurchased 265,360 shares of its outstanding common stock for
an aggregate purchase price of $4,379,000 (or an average price of $16.50 per
share). As of May 4, 2000, 975,500 shares remain authorized for repurchase.

The Company believes that its needs for working capital and capital
expenditures through 2000 and beyond will be adequately met by cash flow and
bank borrowings.


MARKET RISK

This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary
information with respect to such forward-looking statements.

The Company currently has no material derivative financial instruments
that expose the Company to significant market risk. The Company is exposed to
cash flow and fair value risk due to changes in interest rates with respect to
its notes payable. As of March 31, 2000, the Company believes that the carrying
amounts of its financial instruments (cash and notes payable) approximate fair
value.



7

YEAR 2000

This section contains statements that constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. See the statement at the beginning of this Item for cautionary
information with respect to such forward-looking statements.

The Company experienced no disruption in operations due to transition to
the Year 2000. A number of major system projects were initiated in 1997, 1998
and 1999 to upgrade core computer hardware, networking and software systems.
These projects replaced existing systems as opposed to simply fixing Year 2000
problems; they are now complete and operational. There are no known trends or
deferred capital spending related to Year 2000 issues that are likely to affect
the Company's results of operations.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 3. OTHER INFORMATION

On March 17, 2000, the Company declared a quarterly dividend on its
Common Stock; the dividend was $0.14 per share. Subject to its continued
profitability and favorable cash flow, the Company intends to continue the
payment of quarterly dividends.
