THE GEO GROUP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The GEO Group, Inc. a Florida corporation, and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “GEO”) is a fully-integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, leasing and management of correctional, detention and re-entry facilities and the provision of community-based services and youth services in the United States, Australia, South Africa, the United Kingdom and Canada. The Company owns, leases and operates a broad range of correctional and detention facilities including maximum, medium and minimum security prisons, immigration detention centers, minimum security detention centers, as well as community based re-entry facilities. The Company develops new facilities based on contract awards, using its project development expertise and experience to design, construct and finance what it believes are state-of-the-art facilities that maximize security and efficiency. The Company provides innovative compliance technologies, industry-leading monitoring services, and evidence-based supervision and treatment programs for community-based parolees, probationers and pretrial defendants. The Company also provides secure transportation services for offender and detainee populations as contracted domestically and in the United Kingdom through its joint venture GEO Amey PECS Ltd. (“GEOAmey”). As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s worldwide operations included the management and/or ownership of approximately 77,000 beds at 98 correctional and detention facilities, including projects under development, and also included the provision of monitoring of more than 70,000 offenders in a community-based environment on behalf of approximately 900 federal, state and local correctional agencies located in all 50 states.

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and the instructions to Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all disclosures required by Form 10-K. The accounting policies followed for quarterly financial reporting are the same as those disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2014 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The accompanying December 31, 2013 consolidated balance sheet has been derived from those audited financial statements. Additional information may be obtained by referring to the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information for the interim periods reported in this Form 10-Q have been made. Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year ending December 31, 2014, or for any other future interim or annual periods.

2. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company has recorded goodwill as a result of its business combinations. Goodwill is recorded as the difference, if any, between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the tangible assets, intangible assets acquired net of liabilities assumed, including noncontrolling interests. Changes in goodwill from December 31, 2013 to March 31, 2014 are related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and additions due to an acquisition completed in late February 2014 as discussed further below.

The Company has also recorded other finite and indefinite lived intangible assets as a result of business combinations completed prior to 2014. Changes in the gross carrying amounts from December 31, 2013 to March 31, 2014 are related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. An acquisition completed in late February 2014 as discussed further below also led to estimated additions to intangible assets. The Company’s intangible assets include facility management contracts, the trade name and technology, as follows (in thousands):

|  | March 31, 2014 |  |  | December 31, 2013 |
|  | Weighted Average Useful Life (years) |  |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |  |  | Net Carrying Amount |  |  | Gross Carrying Amount |  |  | Accumulated Amortization |  |  | Net Carrying Amount |
Facility management contracts |  |  | 13.4 |  |  | $ | 156,756 |  |  | $ | (47,520 | ) |  | $ | 109,236 |  |  | $ | 151,604 |  |  | $ | (44,646 | ) |  | $ | 106,958 |
Technology |  |  | 7.0 |  |  |  | 22,012 |  |  |  | (9,515 | ) |  |  | 12,497 |  |  |  | 21,200 |  |  |  | (8,758 | ) |  |  | 12,442 |

Total acquired intangible assets |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 224,168 |  |  | $ | (57,035 | ) |  | $ | 167,133 |  |  | $ | 216,804 |  |  | $ | (53,404 | ) |  | $ | 163,400 |

##### Table of Contents

Amortization expense was $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, respectively. Amortization expense was primarily related to the U.S. Corrections & Detention and GEO Community Services segments’ amortization of acquired facility management contracts. As of March 31, 2014, the weighted average period before the next contract renewal or extension for the acquired facility management contracts was approximately 1.4 years. Although the facility management contracts acquired have renewal and extension terms in the near term, the Company has historically maintained these relationships beyond the current contractual periods.

Estimated amortization expense related to the Company’s finite-lived intangible assets for the remainder of 2014 through 2018 and thereafter is as follows (in thousands):

Fiscal Year |  | Total Amortization Expense |
Remainder of 2014 |  | $ | 12,087 |
2015 |  |  | 15,719 |
2016 |  |  | 15,719 |
2017 |  |  | 15,719 |
2018 |  |  | 13,019 |
Thereafter |  |  | 49,470 |
|  | $ | 121,733 |

On February 25, 2014, Protocol Criminal Justice, Inc. (“Protocol”), a recently created subsidiary of the Company’s BI subsidiary, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with an unrelated entity, APAC Customer Services, Inc., to acquire certain tangible and intangible assets for cash consideration of $13 million. The acquisition is expected to provide returns consistent with GEO’s targeted returns on invested capital. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on the best information available and is provisional pending, amongst other things: (i) the finalization of the valuation of the fair values and useful lives of property and equipment acquired; (ii) finalization of the valuations and useful lives for intangible assets; and (iii) finalization of the valuation of accounts payable and accrued expenses. During the measurement period (which is the period required to obtain all necessary information that existed at the acquisition date, or to conclude that such information is unavailable, not to exceed one year), additional assets or liabilities may be recognized, or there could be changes to the amounts of assets or liabilities previously recognized on a preliminary basis, if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in the recognition of those assets or liabilities as of that date. Based on management’s preliminary estimates, the preliminary purchase price allocation on February 25, 2014 primarily consisted of intangible assets of $7.4 million related to acquired facility management contracts, acquired technology and trade name, and goodwill of $3.7 million. In addition, the Company acquired accounts receivable, equipment and assumed certain liabilities, none of which were significant. The Company expects to complete the purchase price allocation during the second quarter of 2014.

The Company’s Level 2 financial instruments included in the tables above as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consist of an interest rate swap liability held by the Company’s Australian subsidiary, the Company’s rabbi trust established for GEO employee and employer contributions to The GEO Group Inc. Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan, an investment in Canadian dollar denominated fixed income securities, and a guaranteed investment contract which is a restricted investment related to CSC of Tacoma LLC (“CSC”).

The Australian subsidiary’s interest rate swap liability is valued using a discounted cash flow model based on projected Australian borrowing rates. The Company’s restricted investment in the rabbi trust is invested in Company owned life insurance policies which are recorded at their cash surrender values. These investments are valued based on the underlying investments held in the policies’ separate account. The underlying assets are equity and fixed income pooled funds that are comprised of level 1 and level 2 securities. The Canadian dollar denominated securities, not actively traded, are valued using quoted rates for these and similar securities. The restricted investment in the guaranteed investment contract is valued using quoted rates for these and similar securities.

4. FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The Company’s consolidated balance sheets reflect certain financial assets and liabilities at carrying value. The carrying value of certain debt instruments, if applicable, is net of unamortized discount.

REIT Distributions

As a REIT, GEO is required to distribute annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gain) and began paying regular quarterly REIT dividends in 2013. The amount, timing and frequency of future dividends, however, will be at the sole discretion of GEO’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and will be declared based upon various factors, many of which are beyond GEO’s control, including, GEO’s financial condition and operating cash flows, the amount required to maintain REIT status and reduce any income taxes that GEO otherwise would be required to pay, limitations on distributions in GEO’s existing and future debt instruments, limitations on GEO’s ability to fund distributions using cash generated through GEO’s taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRSs”) and other factors that GEO’s Board may deem relevant.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively, GEO declared and paid the following regular cash distributions to its stockholders as follows:

Declaration Date |  | Payment Due |  | Record Date |  | Distribution Per Share |  |  | Aggregate Payment Amount (in millions) |
January 17, 2013 |  | March 1, 2013 |  | February 15, 2013 |  | $ | 0.50 |  |  | $ | 35.7 |

Prospectus Supplement

On May 8, 2013, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a prospectus supplement related to the offer and sale from time to time of the Company’s common stock at an aggregate offering price of up to $100 million through sales agents. Sales of shares of the Company’s common stock under the prospectus supplement and equity distribution agreements entered into with the sales agents, if any, may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933. There were no sales of shares of the Company’s common stock under the prospectus supplement during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Comprehensive income (loss) represents the change in shareholders’ equity from transactions and other events and circumstances arising from non-shareholder sources. The Company’s total comprehensive income is comprised of net income attributable to GEO, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, foreign currency translation adjustments that arise from consolidating foreign operations that do not impact cash flows, net unrealized gains and/or losses on derivative instruments, and pension liability adjustments in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income.

6. EQUITY INCENTIVE PLANS

The Board of Directors has adopted The GEO Group, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), which was approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 2, 2014. The 2014 Plan replaces the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 2014 Plan provides for a reserve of 3,083,353 shares, which consists of 2,000,000 new shares of common stock available for issuance and 1,083,353 shares of common stock that were available for issuance under the 2006 Plan prior to the 2014 Plan replacing it.

Stock Options

The Company uses a Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate the fair value of each option awarded. For options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014, the fair value was estimated using the following assumptions: (i) volatility of 28.92%; (ii) expected term of 4.82 years; (iii) risk free interest rate of 1.44%; and (iv) expected dividend yield of 7%. A summary of the activity of stock option awards issued and outstanding under Company plans is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2014:

|  | Shares |  |  | Wtd. Avg. Exercise Price |  |  | Wtd. Avg. Remaining Contractual Term (years) |  |  | Aggregate Intrinsic Value |
|  | (in thousands) |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | (in thousands) |

Options exercisable at March 31, 2014 |  |  | 545 |  |  | $ | 20.29 |  |  |  | 6.17 |  |  | $ | 6,515 |

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the amount of stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $1.6 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock option awards that are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

Restricted Stock

Compensation expense for nonvested stock awards is recorded over the vesting period based on the fair value at the date of grant. Generally, the restricted stock awards vest in equal increments over either a three or four year period. The fair value of restricted stock awards, which do not contain a market-based performance condition, is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company has issued share-based awards with service-based, performance-based and market-based vesting criteria.

Forfeited/canceled |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |
Restricted stock outstanding at March 31, 2014 |  |  | 917 |  |  | $ | 27.80 |

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company granted 307,900 shares of restricted stock to certain employees and executive officers. Of these awards, 90,000 are performance-based awards which will be forfeited if the Company does not achieve certain annual metrics during 2014, 2015 and 2016.

The vesting of these performance-based restricted stock grants are subject to the achievement by GEO of two annual performance metrics as follows: (i) up to 75% of the shares of restricted stock (“TSR Target Award”) can vest at the end of a three-year performance period if GEO meets certain total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance targets, as compared to the total shareholder return of a peer group of companies, during 2014, 2015 and 2016; and (ii) up to 25% of the shares of restricted stock (“ROCE Target Award”) can vest at the end of a three-year period if GEO meets certain return on capital employed (“ROCE”) performance targets in 2014, 2015 and 2016. These performance awards can vest at between 0% and 200% of the target awards for both metrics. The number of shares shown for the performance-based awards is based on the target awards for both metrics.

The metric related to ROCE is considered to be a performance condition. For share-based awards that contain a performance condition, the achievement of the targets must be probable before any share-based compensation expense is recorded. The Company reviews the likelihood of which target in the range will be achieved and if deemed probable, compensation expense is recorded at that time. If subsequent to initial measurement there is a change in the estimate of the probability of meeting the performance condition, the effect of the change in the estimated quantity of awards expected to vest is recognized by cumulatively adjusting compensation expense. If ultimately the performance targets are not met, for any awards where vesting was previously deemed probable, previously recognized compensation expense will be reversed in the period in which vesting is no longer deemed probable. The fair value of these awards was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

The metric related to TSR is considered to be a market condition. For share-based awards that contain a market condition, the probability of satisfying the market condition must be considered in the estimate of grant-date fair value and previously recorded compensation expense is not reversed if the market condition is never met. The fair value of these awards was determined based on a Monte Carlo simulation, which calculates a range of possible outcomes and the probabilities that they will occur, using the following key assumptions: (i) volatility of 25.6%; (ii) beta of 0.74; and (iii) risk free rate of 0.62%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the Company recognized $2.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of compensation expense related to its restricted stock awards. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $21.4 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested restricted stock awards, including non-vested restricted stock awards with performance-based and market-based vesting, that are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 4.0 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Company previously adopted The GEO Group Inc. 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) which was approved by the Company’s shareholders. The purpose of the Plan, which is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Service Code of 1986, as amended, is to encourage stock ownership through payroll deductions by the employees of GEO and designated subsidiaries of GEO in order to increase their identification with the Company’s goals and secure a proprietary interest in the Company’s success. These deductions are used to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a 5% discount from the then current market price. The Company has made available up to 500,000 shares of its common stock, which were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 4, 2012, for sale to eligible employees under the Plan.

The Plan is considered to be non-compensatory. As such, there is no compensation expense required to be recognized. Share purchases under the Plan are made on the last day of each month. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, 2,657 shares were issued out of the Company’s treasury stock in connection with the Plan.

7. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic income per common share is computed by dividing the income attributable to The GEO Group, Inc. shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock. The calculation of diluted income per common share is similar to that of basic income per common share except that the denominator includes dilutive common stock equivalents such as stock options and shares of restricted stock. Basic and diluted income per common share from were calculated for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

|  | Three Months Ended |
|  | March 31, 2014 |  |  | March 31, 2013 |
Net Income |  | $ | 27,996 |  |  | $ | 23,438 |
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests |  |  | (6 | ) |  |  | (18 | )
Net income attributable to The GEO Group, Inc. |  |  | 27,990 |  |  |  | 23,420 |
Basic earnings per share attributable to The GEO Group, Inc.: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 71,449 |  |  |  | 70,850 |
Per share amount |  | $ | 0.39 |  |  | $ | 0.33 |
Diluted earnings per share attributable to The GEO Group, Inc.: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Weighted average shares outstanding |  |  | 71,449 |  |  |  | 70,850 |
Effect of dilutive securities: Stock options and restricted stock |  |  | 446 |  |  |  | 562 |
Weighted average shares assuming dilution |  |  | 71,895 |  |  |  | 71,412 |
Per share amount |  | $ | 0.39 |  |  | $ | 0.33 |

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, 17,070 weighted average shares of common stock underlying options were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS because the effect would be anti-dilutive. There were no common stock equivalents from restricted shares that were anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, no shares of stock options or restricted stock were anti-dilutive.

8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company’s primary objective in holding derivatives is to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in interest rates. The Company measures its derivative financial instruments at fair value.

The Company’s Australian subsidiary is a party to an interest rate swap agreement to fix the interest rate on its variable rate non-recourse debt to 9.7%. The Company has determined the swap, which has a notional amount of AUD 50.9 million, payment and expiration dates, and call provisions that coincide with the terms of the non-recourse debt to be an effective cash flow hedge. Accordingly, the Company records the change in the value of the interest rate swap in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of applicable income taxes. Total unrealized gains recorded in other comprehensive income, net of tax, related to this cash flow hedge was not significant for the three months ended March 31, 2014. The total fair value of the swap liability as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $0.4 million and $0.4 million, respectively, and is recorded as a component of other non-current assets within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. There was no material ineffectiveness of this interest rate swap for the periods presented. The Company does not expect to enter into any transactions during the next twelve months which would result in the reclassification into earnings or losses associated with this swap currently reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Credit Agreement

On April 3, 2013, the Company entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with GEO Corrections Holdings, Inc. (with the Company as the sole term loan borrower, and the Company and GEO Corrections Holdings, Inc. as joint and several revolver borrowers), BNP Paribas, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders who are, or may from time to time become, a party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement evidences a Senior Credit Facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) consisting of a $300 million Term Loan (the “Term Loan”) initially bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% (with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%), and a $700 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) initially bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% (with no LIBOR floor), in each case subject to adjustment based on a total leverage ratio pricing grid. The Company also has the ability to increase the Senior Credit Facility by an additional $350 million, subject to lender demand, prevailing market conditions and satisfying the borrowing and other conditions thereunder. The Revolver component is scheduled to mature on April 3, 2018 and the Term Loan component is scheduled to mature on April 3, 2020. The Term Loan and Revolver may be prepaid in whole or in part by the Company at any time without premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had $297.8 million in aggregate borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan, $335.0 million in borrowings under the Revolver, and approximately $61.0 million in letters of credit which left $304.0 million in additional borrowing capacity under the Revolver. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2014 was 2.9%.

Indebtedness under the Revolver bears interest based on the Total Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement, as of the most recent determination date, as defined, in each of the instances below at the stated rate:

LIBOR borrowings |  | LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75%. |  |
Base rate borrowings |  | Prime Rate plus 0.75% to 1.75%. |  |
Letters of credit |  | 1.75% to 2.75%. |  |
Unused Revolver |  | 0.35% to 0.375%. |  |

The Credit Agreement contains certain representations and warranties, certain affirmative covenants and certain negative covenants that (subject to certain exceptions and allowances) restrict the Company’s ability to, among other things, (i) create, incur or assume indebtedness, (ii) create, incur, assume or permit liens, (iii) make loans and other investments, (iv) engage in mergers, acquisitions, liquidations and asset sales, (v) make certain restricted payments, (vi) issue, sell or otherwise dispose of certain types of non-common equity, (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates, (viii) allow the total leverage ratio to exceed 5.75 to 1.00, allow the senior secured leverage ratio to exceed 3.50 to 1.00 or allow the interest coverage ratio to be less than 3.00 to 1.00, (ix) cancel, forgive, make any voluntary or optional payment or prepayment on, or redeem or acquire for value certain of its senior notes, except as permitted, (x) alter the business the Company conducts, and (xi) materially impair the Company’s lenders’ security interests in the collateral for its loans.

The Senior Credit Facility generally requires the Interest Coverage Ratio to be calculated as (a) Adjusted EBITDA (as defined under the Senior Credit Facility) for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to (b) Interest Expense (as defined under the Senior Credit Facility), minus Interest Expense attributable to Indebtedness of Unrestricted Subsidiaries and Other Consolidated Persons that is Non-Recourse to the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries for such four quarter period (capitalized terms are defined in the Senior Credit Facility).

Events of default under the Credit Agreement include, but are not limited to, (i) the Company’s failure to pay principal or letter of credit reimbursement obligations when due or to pay any interest or other amounts within three business days of the payment deadline, (ii) the Company’s material breach of any representations or warranty, (iii) covenant defaults, (iv) liquidation, reorganization or other relief relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, (v) cross default under certain other material indebtedness, (vi) unsatisfied final monetary judgments over a specified threshold, (vii) material environmental liability claims which have been asserted against the Company, and (viii) a change in control.

The Company’s obligations under the Shareholder’s Loan expire upon the earlier of full funding or SACS’s release from its obligations under its debt agreements. The lenders’ ability to draw on the Shareholder’s Loan is limited to certain circumstances, including termination of the contract.

The Company has also guaranteed certain obligations of SACS to the security trustee for SACS’ lenders. The Company secured its guarantee to the security trustee by ceding its rights to claims against SACS in respect of any loans or other finance agreements, and by pledging the Company’s shares in SACS. The Company’s liability under the guarantee is limited to the cession and pledge of shares. The guarantee expires upon expiration of the cession and pledge agreements.

13. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCMENTS

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. A discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or group of components of an entity, or a business or nonprofit activity. Under the ASU, only those disposals of components of an entity that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results will be reported as discontinued operations in the financial statements. This standard will become effective for disposals or activities classified as held for sale that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The implementation of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-05, “Service Concession Arrangements,” which specifies that an operating entity should not account for a service concession arrangement that falls within the scope of this update as a lease in accordance with Topic 840. An operating entity should refer to other Topics as applicable to account for various aspects of a service concession arrangement. The amendments also specify that the infrastructure used in a service concession arrangement should not be recognized as property, plant and equipment of the operating entity. A service concession arrangement is defined as an arrangement between a public-sector entity and an operating entity for which the terms provide that the operating entity will operate the public-sector entity’s infrastructure (for example, airports, roads, bridges, tunnels, prisons and hospitals) for a specified period of time. This standard will become effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 31, 2014. The Company is in the process of evaluating whether this standard would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

We are a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) specializing in the ownership, leasing and management of correctional, detention and re-entry facilities and the provision of community-based services and youth services in the United States, Australia, South Africa, the United Kingdom and Canada. We own, lease and operate a broad range of correctional and detention facilities including maximum, medium and minimum security prisons, immigration detention centers, minimum security detention centers, and community based re-entry facilities. We offer counseling, education and/or treatment to inmates with alcohol and drug abuse problems at most of the domestic facilities we manage. We are also a provider of innovative compliance technologies, industry-leading monitoring services, and evidence-based supervision and treatment programs for community-based parolees, probationers and pretrial defendants. Additionally, we have an exclusive contract with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which we refer to as ICE, to provide supervision and reporting services designed to improve the participation of non-detained aliens in the immigration court system. We develop new facilities based on contract awards, using our project development expertise and experience to design, construct and finance what we believe are state-of-the-art facilities that maximize security and efficiency. We also provide secure transportation services for offender and detainee populations as contracted domestically and in the United Kingdom through our joint venture, GEO Amey PECS Ltd., which we refer to as GEOAmey.

As of March 31, 2014, our worldwide operations included the management and/or ownership of approximately 77,000 beds at 98 correctional, detention and re-entry facilities, including idle facilities and projects under development and also included the provision of monitoring of more than 70,000 offenders in a community-based environment on behalf of approximately 900 federal, state and local correctional agencies located in all 50 states.

We provide a diversified scope of services on behalf of our government clients:

| • |  | our correctional and detention management services involve the provision of security, administrative, rehabilitation, education and food services, primarily at adult male correctional and detention facilities;

| • |  | our community-based services involve supervision of adult parolees and probationers and the provision of temporary housing, programming, employment assistance and other services with the intention of the successful reintegration of residents into the community;

| • |  | our youth services include residential, detention and shelter care and community-based services along with rehabilitative and educational programs;

| • |  | our monitoring services provide our governmental clients with innovative compliance technologies, industry-leading monitoring services, and evidence-based supervision and treatment programs for community-based parolees, probationers and pretrial defendants; including services provided under the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program, which we refer to as ISAP, to ICE for the provision of services designed to improve the participation of non-detained aliens in the immigration court system;

| • |  | we develop new facilities using our project development experience to design, construct and finance what we believe are state-of-the-art facilities that maximize security and efficiency;

| • |  | we provide secure transportation services for offender and detainee populations as contracted domestically and internationally—our joint venture GEOAmey is responsible for providing prisoner escort and custody services in theUnited Kingdom, including all of Wales and England except London and The East of England; and

| • |  | our services are provided at facilities which we either own, lease or are owned by our customers

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, we had consolidated revenues of $393.1 million and $377.0 million, respectively, and we maintained an average company wide facility occupancy rate of 95.5% including 71,239 active beds and excluding 5,756 beds marketed to potential customers for the three months ended March 31, 2014, and 95.3% including 66,338 active beds and excluding 6,056 idle beds marketed to potential customers for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

As a REIT, we are required to distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gain) and we began paying regular distributions in 2013. The amount, timing and frequency of future dividends, however, will be at the sole discretion of our Board and will be declared based upon various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, our financial condition and operating cash flows, the amount

required to maintain REIT status and reduce any income taxes that we otherwise would be required to pay, limitations on distributions in our existing and future debt instruments, limitations on our ability to fund distributions using cash generated through our TRSs and other factors that our Board may deem relevant.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively, we declared and paid the following regular cash distributions to our stockholders as follows:

Declaration Date |  | Payment Due |  | Record Date |  | Distribution Per Share |  |  | Aggregate Payment Amount (in millions) |

Reference is made to Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 3, 2014, for further discussion and analysis of information pertaining to our financial condition and results of operations as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

Fiscal 2014 Developments

Contract Awards

We are currently marketing approximately 5,800 vacant beds at five of our idle facilities to potential customers. The carrying values of these idle facilities totaled $181 million as of March 31, 2014, excluding equipment and other assets that can be easily transferred for use at other facilities.

On February 3, 2014, we announced that we assumed management of the 985-bed Moore Haven Correctional Facility, the 985-bed Bay Correctional Facility, and the 1,884-bed Graceville Correctional Facility under contracts with the Florida Department of Management Services effective February 1, 2014. The facilities are expected to generate approximately $56 million in combined annualized revenues at full occupancy.

On February 3, 2014, we announced that we had increased the contracted capacity at the Company-owned Rio Grande Detention Center in Laredo, Texas from 1,500 to 1,900 beds under a contract with the U.S. Marshals Service. The 1,900-bed center is expected to generate approximately $38 million in total annualized revenues. at full capacity.

On April 1, 2014, the Company announced that it had signed a contract with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation for the reactivation of the Company-owned, 260-bed McFarland Female Community Reentry Facility located in McFarland, California. The facility is expected to generate approximately $9 million in annualized revenues.

On April 30, 2014, the Company announced that it had signed an amendment to the existing contract with the City of Adelanto, California for a 640-bed expansion to the Company-owned, 1,300-bed Adelanto Detention Facility. The facility is expected to generate approximately $21 million in additional annualized revenues.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We routinely evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we did not experience any significant changes in estimates or judgments inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. A summary of our significant accounting policies is contained in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Comparison of the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 and the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013

Revenues

|  | 2014 |  |  | % of Revenue |  |  | 2013 |  |  | % of Revenue |  |  | $ Change |  |  | % Change |

U.S. Corrections & Detention

Revenues increased in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to aggregate increases of $16.1 million resulting from: (i) the activation and intake of inmates at the Central Valley and Desert View correctional facilities in the fourth quarter of 2013; and (ii) our assumption of the management of the Moore Haven, Bay and Graceville correctional facilities in the first quarter of 2014. We also experienced aggregate increases in revenues of $8.9 million at certain of our facilities primarily due to net increases in population, transportation services and/or rates, including the increased revenues due to our purchase of the previously managed-only 1,287-bed Joe Corley Detention Center in June 2013 and our expansion of the Company-owned Rio Grande Detention Center from 1,500 beds to 1,900 beds in the first quarter of 2013. These increases were partially offset by an aggregate decrease of $7.0 million primarily due to contract terminations in 2013.

The number of compensated mandays in U.S. Corrections & Detention facilities was approximately 4.5 million in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 and 4.2 million in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. We experienced an aggregate net increase of approximately 330,000 mandays as a result of our new contracts discussed above and also as a result of increases in population at certain facilities. These increases were partially offset by decreases resulting from lower populations at certain facilities. We look at the average occupancy in our facilities to determine how we are managing our available beds. The average occupancy is calculated by taking compensated mandays as a percentage of capacity. The average occupancy in our U.S. Corrections & Detention facilities was 96.1% and 96.0% of capacity in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 and the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 respectively, excluding idle facilities.

GEO Community Services

The increase in revenues for GEO Community Services in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 is primarily attributable to net increases of $3.1 million due to new electronic monitoring contracts at BI and BI’s acquisition of Protocol in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, we experienced a net increase of $0.6 million primarily due to new programs and program growth at our community based and re-entry centers. These increases were partially offset by decreases in revenues of $1.0 million related to contract terminations and census declines at certain facilities.

International Services

The decrease in revenues for International Services in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 is primarily due to the result of foreign exchange rate fluctuations of $(6.2) million. This decrease was partially offset by an aggregate net increase of $1.7 million primarily attributable to our Australian subsidiary related to population increases, contractual increases linked to the inflationary index and the provision of additional services under certain contracts.

Operating expenses consist of those expenses incurred in the operation and management of our correctional, detention and community based facilities.

U.S. Corrections & Detention

The increase in operating expenses for U.S. Corrections & Detention reflects the following: (i) an increase of $12.6 million due to the activation and intake of inmates at the Central Valley and Desert View correctional facilities in the fourth quarter of 2013; and (ii) our assumption of the management of the Moore Haven, Bay and Graceville correctional facilities in the first quarter of 2014. In addition, we experienced increases of $4.0 million at certain of our facilities primarily attributable to net population increases, increased transportation services, including our expansion of the Company-owned Rio Grande Detention Center from 1,500 beds to 1,900 beds in the first quarter of 2014, and the variable costs associated with those increases. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $4.7 million due to contract terminations.

GEO Community Services

Operating expenses for GEO Community Services increased by $4.3 million during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 from the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to net increases of $5.0 million due to the following: (i) variable costs associated with increases in electronic monitoring contracts at BI; (ii) new programs and program growth at our community based and re-entry centers; and (iii) BI’s acquisition of Protocol in late February 2014. These increases were partially offset by decreases that resulted from contract terminations and census declines of $0.7 million. In addition, operating costs as a percentage of revenue have increased primarily due to revenue decreases at certain of our youth facilities related to census declines without a corresponding reduction in certain fixed overhead costs at these facilities.

International Services

Operating expenses for our International Services segment during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 decreased $5.3 million over the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 which was primarily attributable to the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations of $(5.8) million. In addition, there was a net decrease of $2.0 million primarily related to cost cutting measures implemented to reduce our overhead costs in the United Kingdom. These decreases were partially offset by a net increase of $2.4 million primarily attributable to our Australian subsidiary due to net population increases and contractual increases in labor.

U.S. Corrections & Detention

U.S. Corrections & Detention depreciation and amortization expense increased slightly in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 primarily due to renovations made at our Broward Transition Center which were completed in September 2013 and also our purchase of the 1,287-bed Joe Corley Detention Center in June 2013.

GEO Community Services depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.2 million in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. The increase is primarily due to an increase in monitoring and other equipment at BI in 2013 and 2014.

International Services

Depreciation and amortization expense was fairly consistent in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 as there were not significant additions during 2013 or 2014 at our international subsidiaries.

General and administrative expenses comprise substantially all of our other unallocated operating expenses primarily including corporate management salaries and benefits, professional fees and other administrative expenses. The decrease in general and administrative expenses in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 was primarily attributable to nonrecurring professional fees incurred in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 associated with our conversion to a REIT.

The majority of our interest income generated in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 and the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 is from the cash balances at our foreign subsidiaries. Interest income decreased in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 primarily due to lower cash balances at our foreign subsidiaries.

Interest expense during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 increased by $1.3 million compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. The increase is primarily due to higher outstanding debt balances during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. At March 31, 2014, our outstanding debt was $1.6 billion compared to $1.4 billion at March 31, 2013. Contributing to the increase was debt incurred for the purchase of the Joe Corley Detention Center in June 2013. Refer to Note 9—Debt of the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

The provision for income taxes during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 increased by $1.3 million compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 and the effective tax rate increased from 3.8% to 7.5%. The increase is primarily attributable to certain one-time discrete items in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 which did not recur in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014. The retroactive reinstatement in January 2013 of the Work-Opportunity-Tax-Credit legislation for all of 2012 favorably impacted our tax expense in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable income to shareholders and in turn are allowed a deduction for the distribution at the REIT level. The Company’s wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiaries continue to be fully subject to federal, state and foreign income taxes, as applicable. We estimate our annual effective tax rate to be approximately 8% exclusive of any non-recurring items.

Equity in earnings of affiliates, presented net of income taxes, represents the earnings of SACS and GEOAmey, respectively. Overall, we experienced an increase in equity in earnings of affiliates during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013, which is primarily due to increased performance from the operations of GEOAmey during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 compared to the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013.

Financial Condition

Capital Requirements

Our current cash requirements consist of amounts needed for working capital, distributions of our REIT taxable income in order to maintain our REIT qualification, debt service, supply purchases, investments in joint ventures, and capital expenditures related to either the development of new correctional, detention and re-entry facilities, or the maintenance of existing facilities. In addition, some of our management contracts require us to make substantial initial expenditures of cash in connection with opening or renovating a facility. Generally, these initial expenditures are subsequently fully or partially recoverable as pass-through costs or are billable as a component of the per diem rates or monthly fixed fees to the contracting agency over the original term of the contract. In connection with GEOAmey, our joint venture in the United Kingdom, we and our joint venture partner have each provided a line of credit of £12 million, or $20.0 million, based on exchange rates as of March 31, 2014, for GEOAmey’s operations. As of March 31, 2014, $20.0 million was outstanding.

We currently have contractual commitments for a number of projects using Company financing. We estimate that the cost of these existing capital projects will be $60.3 million of which $19.6 million was spent through the first quarter of 2014. We estimate that the remaining capital requirements related to these capital projects will be $40.7 million which will be spent through fiscal year 2014. Capital expenditures related to facility maintenance costs are expected to be approximately $22 million in 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On April 3, 2013, we entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with GEO Corrections Holdings, Inc. (with GEO as the sole term loan borrower, and GEO and GEO Corrections Holdings, Inc. as joint and several revolver borrowers), BNP Paribas, as Administrative Agent, and the lenders who are, or may from time to time become, a party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement evidences a Senior Credit Facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) consisting of a $300 million Term Loan (the “Term Loan”) initially bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% (with a LIBOR floor of 0.75%), and a $700 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) initially bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.50% (with no LIBOR floor), in each case subject to adjustment based on a total leverage ratio pricing grid. We also have the ability to increase the Senior Credit Facility by an additional $350 million, subject to lender demand, prevailing market conditions and satisfying the borrowing and other conditions thereunder. The Revolver component is scheduled to mature on April 3, 2018 and the Term Loan component is scheduled to mature on April 3, 2020. The Term Loan and Revolver may be prepaid in whole or in part by us at any time without premium or penalty, subject to certain conditions.

As of March 31, 2014, we had $297.8 million in aggregate borrowings outstanding, net of discount, under the Term Loan and $335.0 million in borrowings under the Revolver, and approximately $61.0 million in letters of credit which left $304.0 million in additional borrowing capacity under the Revolver. Refer to Note 9—Debt of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

On October 3, 2013, we completed an offering of $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5 7⁄8% Senior Notes. The 5 7⁄8% Senior Notes will mature on January 15, 2022 and have a coupon rate and yield to maturity of 5 7⁄8%. Interest is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 each year, which commenced on January 15, 2014. The proceeds received from the 5 7⁄8% Senior Notes were used, together with cash on hand, to fund the repurchase, redemption or other discharge of our 7 3/4% Senior Notes and to pay related transaction fees and expenses. Refer to Note 9—Debt of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

##### Table of Contents

On March 19, 2013, we completed an offering of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes. The 5.125% Senior Notes will mature on April 1, 2023 and have a coupon rate and yield to maturity of 5.125%. Interest is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 each year, which commenced on October 1, 2013. A portion of the proceeds received from the 5.125% Senior Notes were used on the date of the financing to repay the prior revolver credit draws outstanding under the prior senior credit facility. Refer to Note 9—Debt of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

In February 2011, we completed an offering of $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of our 6.625% Senior Notes. Interest on the 6.625% Senior Notes accrues at the stated rate. We pay interest semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15. On or after February 15, 2016, we may, at our option, redeem all or part of the 6.625% Senior Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 6.625% Senior Notes.

In addition to the debt outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, the 6.625% Senior Notes, the 5.125% Senior Notes and the 57/8% Senior Notes discussed above, we also have significant debt obligations which, although these obligations are non-recourse to us, require cash expenditures for debt service. Our significant debt obligations could have material consequences. See “Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our High Level of Indebtedness” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. We are exposed to various commitments and contingencies which may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity. We also have guaranteed certain obligations for our South African joint venture and other of our international subsidiaries. These non-recourse obligations, commitments and contingencies and guarantees are further discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

We are also considering opportunities for future business and/or asset acquisitions. If we are successful in our pursuit of these new projects, our cash on hand, cash flows from operations and borrowings under the existing Senior Credit Facility may not provide sufficient liquidity to meet our capital needs through 2014 and we could be forced to seek additional financing or refinance our existing indebtedness. There can be no assurance that any such financing or refinancing would be available to us on terms equal to or more favorable than our current financing terms, or at all. In the future, our access to capital and ability to compete for future capital intensive projects will also be dependent upon, among other things, our ability to meet certain financial covenants in the indenture governing the 6.625% Senior Notes, the indenture governing the 5.125% Senior Notes, the indenture governing the 57/8% Senior Notes and our Credit Agreement. A substantial decline in our financial performance could limit our access to capital pursuant to these covenants and have a material adverse affect on our liquidity and capital resources and, as a result, on our financial condition and results of operations. In addition to these foregoing potential constraints on our capital, a number of state government agencies have been suffering from budget deficits and liquidity issues. While we expect to be in compliance with our debt covenants, if these constraints were to intensify, our liquidity could be materially adversely impacted as could our ability to remain in compliance with these debt covenants.

On May 8, 2013, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a prospectus supplement related to the offer and sale from time to time of our common stock at an aggregate offering price of up to $100 million through sales agents. Sales of shares of our common stock under the prospectus supplement and equity distribution agreements entered into with the sales agents, if any, may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” offerings as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933. There were no sales of shares of our common stock under the prospectus supplement during the three months ended March 31, 2014.

As a REIT, we are subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we annually distribute to our shareholders an amount equal to at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (determined before the deduction for dividends paid and by excluding any net capital gain). Generally, we expect to distribute all or substantially all of our REIT taxable income so as not to be subject to the income or excise tax on undistributed REIT taxable income. The amount, timing and frequency of distributions will be at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will be based upon various factors.

We plan to fund all of our capital needs, including distributions of our REIT taxable income in order to maintain our REIT qualification, and capital expenditures, from cash on hand, cash from operations, borrowings under our Credit Facility and any other financings which our management and Board of Directors, in their discretion, may consummate. Currently, our primary source of liquidity to meet these requirements is cash flow from operations and borrowings under the $700.0 million Revolver. Our management believes that cash on hand, cash flows from operations and availability under our Senior Credit Facility will be adequate to support our capital requirements for 2014 as disclosed under “Capital Requirements” above.

Executive Retirement Agreement

We have a non-qualified deferred compensation agreement with our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The current agreement, as amended, provides for a lump sum payment upon retirement, no sooner than age 55. As of January 1, 2013, our CEO had reached age 55 and was eligible to receive the payment upon retirement. If our CEO had retired as of March 31, 2014, we would have had to pay him $7.1 million. Based on our current capitalization, we do not believe that making this payment would materially adversely impact our liquidity.

Cash Flow

Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2014 was $38.1 million, compared to $52.1 million as of December 31, 2013.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities amounted to $63.2 million in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 versus cash provided by operating activities of $45.4 million in the First Quarter 2013. Cash provided by operating activities during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 was positively impacted by increases in net income attributable to GEO, non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt issuance costs, and stock-based compensation expense. Increases in equity in earnings of affiliates negatively impacted cash. Accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets increased by $7.2 million, representing a negative impact on cash. The increase was primarily driven by the timing of billings and collections. Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities increased by $15.8 million which positively impacted cash. The increase was primarily due to a prepayment from GEO Care LLC of $6.5 million in connection with the termination of the services and license agreement as well as the timing of payments.

Cash provided by operating activities in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 was positively impacted by increases in net income attributable to GEO, non-cash expenses such as depreciation and amortization and stock-based compensation expense. These positive impacts were offset by increases in equity in earnings of affiliates, net of tax and and an increase in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets. Accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets increased in total by a net $6.6 million, representing a negative impact on cash. The increase was primarily driven by increases in accounts receivable of approximately $8.3 million related to increased operations at several new facilities and/or contracts which were activated during 2012. The increase in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets was partially offset by a $1.0 million dividend received from our unconsolidated joint venture in Australia as well as the timing of payments on accounts receivable. Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities increased by $4.7 million and represented a source of cash. The increase was primarily driven by increased operations at several new facilities and/or contracts which were activated during 2012 as well as the timing of payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities of $33.6 million during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 was primarily the result of capital expenditures of $17.5 million and cash paid for a business acquisition in the amount of $13 million. Cash used in investing activities during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 of $7.5 million was primarily the result of capital expenditures of $11.4 million.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 amounted to $44.6 million compared to cash provided by financing activities of $14.4 million during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013. Cash used by financing activities during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014 reflects proceeds from long term debt of $103.0 million under our Revolver and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $3.3 million. These increases were offset by payments of $110.4 million on indebtedness and dividends paid of $41.1 million. Cash provided by financing activities in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 reflects proceeds from long term debt of $410.0 million, including $300 million from the 5.125% Senior Notes as well as $110 million of borrowings under our Revolver, and proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $3.0 million. These increases were offset by payments of $358.4 million on indebtedness, dividends paid of $35.7 million and debt issuance costs of $5.7 million.

Revenue

Domestically, we continue to pursue a number of opportunities for corrections and detention facilities. Continued need for corrections facilities in various states and the need for bed space at federal prisons and detention facilities are two of the factors that have contributed to these opportunities. At the state level, we recently signed a contract with the California Department of Corrections for the reactivation of the Company-owned, 260-bed McFarland Community Reentry Facility which will house female inmates and will provide enhanced rehabilitation and recidivism reduction programs. Under the contract, the facility can be expanded by 260 beds at the Department’s option within 12 months. Additionally, we recently reactivated the Company-owned, 700-bed Central Valley Modified Community Correctional Facility and the Company-owned, 700-bed Desert View Modified Community Correctional Facility. We also executed a new contract for the continued housing of California inmates at the Company-owned Golden State Modified Community Correctional Facility, which increased the facility’s contract capacity from 600 to 700 beds. In Florida, we assumed management of 3,854 contract prison beds which were previously managed by a different private operator. Effective February 1, 2014, we assumed operation of the 1,884-bed Graceville Correctional Facility, the 985-bed Moore Haven Correctional Facility, and the 985-bed Bay Correctional Facility. At the federal level, we recently expanded the contract capacity at the Company-owned Rio Grande Detention Center from 1,500 to 1,900 beds for use by the U.S. Marshals and ICE. We also recently signed a contract with ICE for the development and management of a new 400-bed immigration transfer center in Alexandria, Louisiana. We continue to be encouraged by opportunities as discussed above; however any positive trends may, to some extent, be adversely impacted by government budgetary constraints in the future. While more than two-thirds of legislative fiscal directors described their state fiscal situation as stable, still seventeen states reported that at least one major category of spending was significantly over budget for fiscal year 2014 and of those, ten states indicated that their corrections budgets were overspent in the first four months of fiscal year 2014, according to a survey conducted in the Fall of 2013 by the National Conference of State Legislatures. As a result of budgetary pressures, state correctional agencies may pursue a number of cost savings initiatives which may include reductions in per diem rates and/or the scope of services provided by private operators. These potential cost savings initiatives could have a material adverse impact on our current operations and/or our ability to pursue new business opportunities. Additionally, if state budgetary constraints, as discussed above, persist or intensify, our state customers’ ability to pay us may be impaired and/or we may be forced to renegotiate our management contracts on less favorable terms and our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be materially adversely impacted. We plan to actively bid on any new projects that fit our target profile for profitability and operational risk. Although we are pleased with the overall industry outlook, positive trends in the industry may be offset by several factors, including budgetary constraints, unanticipated contract terminations, contract non-renewals, and/or contract re-bids. Although we have historically had a relatively high contract renewal rate, there can be no assurance that we will be able to renew our expiring management contracts on favorable terms, or at all. Also, while we are pleased with our track record in re-bid situations, we cannot assure that we will prevail in any such future situations.

Internationally, we are exploring a number of opportunities in our current markets and will continue to actively bid on any opportunities that fit our target profile for profitability and operational risk.

With respect to our re-entry services, electronic monitoring services, and youth services business conducted through our GEO Community Services business segment, we are currently pursuing a number of business development opportunities. Relative to opportunities for community-based re-entry centers, we expect to compete for several formal solicitations from the Bureau of Prisons (the “BOP”) for re-entry centers across the country and are also working with our existing local and state correctional clients to leverage new opportunities for both residential facilities as well as non-residential day reporting centers. We continue to expend resources on informing state and local governments about the benefits of public-private partnerships, and we anticipate that there will be new opportunities in the future as those efforts begin to yield results. We believe we are well positioned to capitalize on any suitable opportunities that become available in this area.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses consist of those expenses incurred in the operation and management of our contracts to provide services to our governmental clients. Labor and related cost represented 57.5% of our operating expenses in the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014. Additional significant operating expenses include food, utilities and inmate medical costs. In the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014, operating expenses totaled 74.3% of our consolidated revenues. Our operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in 2014 will be impacted by the opening of any new or existing idle facilities as a result of the cost of transitioning and/or start-up

38

##### Table of Contents

operations related to a facility opening. During 2014, we will incur carrying costs for facilities that are currently vacant. As of March 31, 2014, our worldwide operations include the management and/or ownership of approximately 77,000 beds at 98 correctional, detention, re-entry, youth services and community-based facilities including idle facilities, and also include the provision of monitoring of approximately 70,000 offenders in a community-based environment on behalf of approximately 900 federal, state and local correctional agencies located in all 50 states.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of corporate management salaries and benefits, professional fees and other administrative expenses. In the First Quarter 2014, general and administrative expenses totaled 7.2% of our consolidated revenues. We expect general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue in 2014 to decrease as a result of cost savings initiatives and decreases in nonrecurring costs related to our REIT conversion. We expect business development costs to remain consistent or increase slightly as we pursue additional business development opportunities in all of our business lines. We also plan to continue expending resources from time to time on the evaluation of potential acquisition targets.

Idle Facilities

We are currently marketing approximately 5,800 vacant beds at five of our idle facilities to potential customers. The annual carrying cost of idle facilities in 2014 is estimated to be $21.2 million, including depreciation expense of $5.5 million. As of March 31, 2014 these facilities had a net book value of $181.0 million. We currently do not have any firm commitment or agreement in place to activate these facilities. Historically, some facilities have been idle for multiple years before they received a new contract award. Currently, our North Lake Correctional Facility located in Baldwin, Michigan and our Great Plains Correctional Facility located in Hinton, Oklahoma have been idle the longest of our idle facility inventory. These idle facilities are included in the U.S. Corrections & Detention segment. The per diem rates that we charge our clients often vary by contract across our portfolio. However, if all of these idle facilities were to be activated using our U.S. Corrections & Detention average per diem rate in 2014, (calculated as the U.S. Corrections & Detention revenue divided by the number of U.S. Corrections & Detention mandays) and based on the average occupancy rate in our U.S. Corrections & Detention facilities for 2014, we would expect to receive incremental annualized revenue of approximately $125 million and an annualized increase in earnings per share of approximately $0.35 to $0.40 per share based on our average U.S. Corrections and Detention operating margin.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to changes in interest rates with respect to our Senior Credit Facility. Payments under the Credit Facility are indexed to a variable interest rate. Based on borrowings outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility of $632.8 million and $61.0 million in outstanding letters of credit, as of March 31, 2014, for every one percent increase in the average interest rate applicable to the Senior Credit Facility, our total annual interest expense would increase by $6.3 million.

We have entered into certain interest rate swap arrangements for hedging purposes, fixing the interest rate on our Australian non-recourse debt to 9.7%. The difference between the floating rate and the swap rate on these instruments is recognized in interest expense within the respective entity. Because the interest rates with respect to these instruments are fixed, a hypothetical one percent change in the current interest rate would not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Additionally, we invest our cash in a variety of short-term financial instruments to provide a return. The majority of our cash is invested internationally. These instruments generally consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less. While these instruments are subject to interest rate risk, a hypothetical 100 basis point increase or decrease in market interest rates would not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We are also exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar, the Australian dollar, the Canadian dollar, the South African Rand and the British Pound currency exchange rates. Based upon our foreign currency exchange rate exposure at March 31, 2014, every 10 percent change in historical currency rates would have approximately a $4.9 million effect on our financial position and approximately a $0.3 million impact on our results of operations during the Quarter Ended March 31, 2014.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

| (a) | Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, referred to as the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. On the basis of this review, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to give reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC, under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

It should be noted that the effectiveness of our system of disclosure controls and procedures is subject to certain limitations inherent in any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing and evaluating the controls and procedures, the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events, and the inability to eliminate misconduct completely. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures will detect all errors or fraud. As a result, by its nature, our system of disclosure controls and procedures can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives.

| (b) | Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible to report any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management believes that there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
