3. REPURCHASE OF LICENSED OFFICES

        On December 31, 2000, the Company acquired one licensed office in New
Jersey. Results of operations for the acquired licensed office is recorded in
accordance with the Company's licensed revenue recognition policy until the
acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the direct office revenue
recognition policy is utilized. Had the results of operations for the licensed
offices been shown as of the beginning of the current and prior year fiscal
periods, the consolidated results would not be significantly different. This
acquisition is accounted for under the purchase accounting method. The combined
purchase price was allocated primarily to goodwill and is being amortized over
an estimated life of twenty years.

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

        In addition to historical information, management's discussion and
analysis includes certain forward-looking statements made by RemedyTemp Inc.
that involve material risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on
factors beyond the control of the company (certain of such statements are
identified by use of words such as "anticipate," "believe," "estimate,"
"intend," "expect" or "future"). Accordingly, the company's actual results may
differ materially from those expressed or implied in any such forward-looking
statements as a result of various factors, including without limitation, the
impact of a special charge related to a write-off of a large client's account
receivable, changes in general or local economic conditions, the availability of
sufficient personnel, the company's ability to attract and retain clients and
franchisees/licensees, implementation of the company's new IT systems, the
company's ability to attain cost reductions and other factors described in the
company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding risks
affecting the company's financial condition and results of operations. The
company does not undertake to publicly update or revise its forward-looking
statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected
results expressed or implied therein will not be realized.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the Three Fiscal Months Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to the Three Fiscal
Months Ended January 2, 2000

        Total revenues decreased 0.4% or $0.6 million to $149.5 million for the
three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $150.1 million for the three
fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. Direct revenues increased 0.5% to $83.4
million from $83.0 million and licensed revenues decreased 1.5% to $65.1 million
from $66.1 million for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 and
January 2, 2000. Total revenues decreased as a result of increases in direct
revenues stemming from fulfillment, distribution and customer care support
services provided by new clients, offset by decreases in license revenues due to
decreased growth in revenues from existing customers. The decrease in license
revenues from these customers was offset by increase in permanent placement
billings, whereby the Company receives a fee for placing a temporary in a
permanent position. There were no significant changes in the mix between direct,
licensed and royalty revenues. The Company's future revenue increases depend
significantly on the Company's ability to continue to attract new clients,
retain existing clients, open new offices and manage newly opened offices to
maturity.

        Total cost of direct and licensed sales, which consists of wages and
other expenses related to the temporary associates, decreased 1.5% or $1.8
million to $114.8 million for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000
from $116.6 million for the three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. This
decrease resulted from decreased revenue growth and lower payroll costs. Total
cost of direct and licensed sales as a percentage of revenues was 76.8% for the
three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 compared to 77.7% for the three
fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. Many factors, including increased wage
costs or other employment expenses, could adversely affect the Company's cost of
direct and licensed sales.

        Licensees' share of gross profit represents the net payments to
licensees based upon a percentage of gross profit generated by the licensed
operation. The percentage of gross profit earned by the licensee generally is
based on the number of hours billed. In general, pursuant to terms of the
Company's franchise agreement for licensed offices executed prior to March 31,
1999, the Company's share of gross profit cannot be less than 7.5% of the
licensed operation sales, with the exception of national accounts on which the
Company's fee is reduced to compensate for lower gross margins. For franchise
agreements for licensed offices executed on or after April 1, 1999, the
Company's share of gross profit cannot be less than 8.75% of the licensed
operation's sales, with the exception of national accounts on which the
Company's fee is reduced to compensate for lower gross margins. Licensees' share
of gross profit increased 3.4% or $0.3 million to $11.0 million for the three
fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $10.7 million for the three fiscal
months ended January 2, 2000 due to higher license margins resulting from
increased permanent placement billings in the current quarter. Permanent
placement billings have higher gross margins than temporary placement billings.

        Selling and administrative expenses increased 16.2% or $2.5 million to
$18.0 million for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $15.5
million for the three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. This increase can be
attributed to costs associated with the implementation and ongoing support of
the Company's new information system, and a non-recurring $1.9 million charge to
provide for a large account receivable account deemed uncollectible.

                                REMEDYTEMP, INC.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

        Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues
were 12.1% for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 as compared to
10.3% for the three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. There can be no
assurance that selling and administrative expenses will not increase in the
future, both in absolute terms and as a percentage of total revenues. Increases
in these expenses could adversely affect the Company's profitability.

        Depreciation and amortization increased 29.1% or $0.3 million to $1.4
million for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $1.1 million
for the three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000. This results from the
increased depreciation expense of the Company's new back office information
system, which was placed in service in October 2000.

        Income from operations decreased 33.2% or $2.1 million to $4.2 million
for the three fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $6.3 million for the
three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000 due to the factors described above.
Income from operations as a percentage of revenues was 2.8% for the three fiscal
months ended December 31, 2000 compared to 4.2% for the three fiscal months
ended January 2, 2000.

        Net income decreased 26.9% or $1.0 million to $2.9 million for the three
fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 from $3.9 million for the three fiscal
months ended January 2, 2000 due to the factors described above. Interest
expense decreased as a result of no line of credit borrowings during the current
quarter. Additionally, the Company reduced its effective tax rate as a result of
expected Work Opportunity and Welfare to Work Tax Credits. As a percentage of
total revenues, net income was 1.9% for the three fiscal months ended December
31, 2000 compared to 2.6% for the three fiscal months ended January 2, 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

        Cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 million for the three
fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 and $2.0 million for the three fiscal
months ended January 2, 2000. The overall decrease in cash from operating
activities results primarily from the timing of vendor and income tax payments,
offset by lower cash outflows in the current year quarter for payroll and
related costs, as well as licensees' share of gross profit.

        Cash used for purchases of fixed assets was $0.6 million for the three
fiscal months ended December 31, 2000 and $2.1 million for the three fiscal
months ended January 2, 2000. The decrease in capital expenditures results from
the completion of the Company's information system implementation in October
2000. During the next twelve months, the Company anticipates capital
expenditures associated with direct office openings and further investments in
the Company's computer-based technologies to approximate $5.0 million.

        On December 31, 2000, the Company acquired one licensed office in New
Jersey (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements). In the prior
fiscal year, the Company repurchased six licensed offices in Virginia during the
comparative first quarter. Results of operations for the acquired licensed
offices are recorded in accordance with the Company's licensed revenue
recognition policy until the acquisition date. Subsequent to the acquisition
date, the direct office revenue recognition policy is utilized. Had the results
of operations for the licensed offices been shown as of the beginning of the
current and prior year fiscal periods, the consolidated results would not be
significantly different. These acquisitions were accounted for under the
purchase accounting method. The combined purchase price was allocated primarily
to goodwill and is being amortized over an estimated life of twenty years. The
Company is contemplating the continued selective repurchase of licensed and
franchised offices in certain territories with the intent of expanding the
Company's market presence in such regions.

        The Company has a revolving line of credit agreement with Bank of
America providing for aggregate borrowings and letters of credit of $40.0
million. The Company has no borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2000. The
line of credit is unsecured and expires on February 28, 2002. The agreement
governing the line of credit requires the Company to maintain certain financial
ratios and comply with certain restrictive covenants. The Company is in
compliance with these covenants.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL CONDITION
        AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)

        The Company may continue evaluating certain strategic acquisitions. Such
acquisitions may have an impact on liquidity depending on the size of the
acquisition.

        The Company believes that its current and expected levels of working
capital and line of credit are adequate to support present operations and to
fund future growth and business opportunities.

SEASONALITY

        The Company's quarterly operating results are affected by the number of
billing days in the quarter and the seasonality of its clients' businesses. The
first fiscal quarter has historically been strong as a result of manufacturing
and retail emphasis on holiday sales. Historically, the second fiscal quarter
shows a decline in comparable revenues from the first fiscal quarter. Revenue
growth has historically accelerated in each of the third and fourth fiscal
quarters as manufacturers, retailers and service businesses increase their level
of business activity.
