3. On January 1, 1995, McGrath RentCorp converted a $300,000 note receivable
to 73.171% ownership of Enviroplex, Inc. Enviroplex, Inc. manufactures portable

accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary. All intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 1995 and 1994

Rental revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995
increased $108,015 (1%) and $357,605 (2%), respectively, over the same periods
in 1994. For the six month period, the $947,626 increase in rental revenues
from electronics was offset by a $590,021 decline in rental revenues from
relocatable modular offices. The rental revenue decline for modulars was due to
the return of a significant amount of equipment (220 unit complex) from a single
customer which had generated rental billings of $322,464 per quarter. Average
utilization during the first six months declined for modular equipment, from
78.1% to 75.1%, and improved slightly for electronic equipment, from 53.7% to
54.4%, as compared to the same period in 1994.

Rental related services for the three and six months ended June 30,
1995 decreased $330,148 (16%) and $756,316 (17%), respectively, over the same
periods in 1994. The six month decrease was due to fewer site work
requirements experienced in 1995 offset by a one time adjustment of incentive
fees recognized by the Company for equipment management. For the six month
comparative period in 1994, $739,000 of rental related service revenues was for
site work for three projects, one of which was directly related to the
Northridge, California earthquake. Gross margins for rental related services
for the six month period increased from 34% in 1994 to 37% in 1995.

Sales and related services for the three and six months ended June 30,
1995 increased $1,092,297 (40%) and $1,567,134 (27%), respectively, over the
same periods in 1994. The increases in sales volume for each comparative period
is due to the sales volume of the Company's majority owned subsidiary,
Enviroplex, Inc. which had sales in the first six months of 1995 of $2,668,573.
Sales and related services from quarter to quarter have fluctuated depending on
customer requirements. Gross margins on sales and related services for the six
month period declined from 34.0% in 1994 to 33.5% in 1995.

Selling and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended
June 30, 1995 decreased $178,607 (5%) and $76,817 (1%), respectively, over the
same periods in 1994. The six month decrease is primarily due to net reductions
in bad debt, insurance and freight-in expenses amounting to $743,824 offset by
the addition of Enviroplex, Inc. expenses of $338,569 and the acceleration of
the recognition of a leasehold improvement expense of $330,000.

Interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 1995
increased $191,975 (39%) and $409,284 (43%), respectively, over the same periods
in 1994 as a result of higher borrowing levels combined with a higher average
interest rate.

Second Quarter 1995 Form 10-Q

Income before provision for income taxes for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1995 increased $76,516 (1%) and $213,355 (2%), respectively, over
the same periods in 1994 with net income remaining the same for each reported
period as a result of a slightly higher effective tax rate for 1995.

Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The debt (notes payable) to equity ratio was 0.44 to 1 at June 30, 1995
compared to 0.43 to 1 at December 31, 1994. The debt (total liabilities) to
equity ratio at the end of the current period was 1.05 to 1 as compared to 1.03
to 1 as of December 31 1994.

The Company's primary use of funds is to purchase rental equipment, and
funds will continue to be used for this purpose in the future. Additionally, the
Company has used substantial funds to make improvements to its inventory
facilities located in Southern California, Northern California and the Houston
area, and funds will continue to be used for this purpose.

From time to time, the Company has repurchased shares of its issued and
outstanding common stock in the over-the-counter market (NASDQ) and/or through
privately negotiated, large block transactions. The Board of Directors believes
the Company's shares are currently undervalued by the market and that the
repurchase of its shares is a good investment for the Company under such
circumstances. During the year ended December 31, 1994, the Company repurchased
158,354 shares of its issued and outstanding common stock for an aggregate
purchase price of $2,532,591 (average price of $15.99 per share). During the
first quarter of 1995, the Company repurchased 45,700 shares of its common stock
for an aggregate purchase price of $714,038 (average price of $15.62 per share),
and during the second quarter 1995, it repurchased 96,566 shares for an
aggregate purchase price of $1,602,197 (average price of $16.59 per share).
During the period from July 1 through August 9, 1995, the Company has
repurchased an additional 211,800 shares at an aggregate purchase price of
$3,654,294 (average price of $17.25 per share). Shares repurchased by the
Company are cancelled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued
stock. As of August 9, 1995, the Company was still authorized to purchase an
additional 341,634 shares of its common stock under an authorization from its
Board of Directors given on March 30, 1995.

During the first six months of 1995, the Company paid $1,878,282 in cash
quarterly dividends to its shareholders. Subject to its continued profitability
and favorable cash flow, the Company intends to continue the payment of
quarterly dividends to its shareholders.
