EXHIBIT 99.1

Statement Under Oath of
Principal Executive Officer
Regarding Facts and Circumstances Relating to Exchange Act Filings

I, Henrik C. Slipsager, state and attest that:

1)    To the best of my knowledge, based upon a review of the covered reports of ABM Industries Incorporated and, except as corrected or supplemented in a subsequent covered report:

          no covered report contained an untrue statement of a material fact as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of the date on which it was filed); and
 
          no covered report omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements in the covered report, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading as of the end of the period covered by such report (or in the case of a report on Form 8-K or definitive proxy materials, as of the date of which it was filed).

2)    I have reviewed the contents of this statement with the Company’s audit committee.
 
3)    In this statement under oath, each of the following, if filed on or before the date of this statement, is a “covered report”:

          Annual Report of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2001, of ABM Industries Incorporated, filed with the Commission on December 21, 2001;
 
          all reports on Form 10-Q, all reports on Form 8-K and all definitive proxy materials of ABM Industries Incorporated filed with the Commission subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K above; and
 
          any amendments to any of the foregoing.
     
/s/ Henrik C. Slipsager
