March 31, 1998

NOTE 1. -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and 
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the 
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting 
principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, 
all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered 
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for 
the three months ended March 31, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the 
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1998.  This 
information should be read in connection with the consolidated financial 
statements and footnotes thereto incorporated by reference in the 
Schlotzsky's, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 
31, 1997.

NOTE 2. -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTES RECEIVABLE

     Schlotzsky's Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") obtains annual 
valuations of all Area Developer and Master Licensee promissory notes 
receivable from an independent financial services institution.  As of 
December 31, 1997 and March 31, 1998, the Company had recorded a valuation 
allowance of approximately $443,000 and $468,000, respectively, to adjust the 
cost basis of the promissory notes to the lower of cost or respective 
appraised fair value.

TURNKEY PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT

   Under the Turnkey Program, the Company works independently or with an area 
developer to identify superior store sites within a territory.  The Company 
typically purchases or leases a selected site, designs and constructs a 
Schlotzsky's Deli restaurant on the site and sells, leases or subleases the 
completed store to a franchisee.  Where the Company does not sell the 
property to a franchisee, the Company sells the improved property, or, in the 
case of a leased property, assigns the lease and any sublease, to an 
investor. Additionally, the Company may sell the site or assign its earnest 
money contract and lease with its franchisee to a third party investor who 
then assumes responsibility for developing the store. The Company typically 
provides a credit enhancement on the franchisee's lease on leased locations.  
Upon sale of the site or assignment of its earnest money contract, the 
Company realizes revenue based on the excess of the sales price over its cost 
of securing or developing the property if it has provided no credit 
enhancement on the lease. When a guaranty exists, the Company defers revenue 
and related costs of the site to a date when the guaranty is terminated or 
the Company's exposure to loss under the guaranty has passed. The third-party 
investor may contract with the Company in a separate agreement to manage 
construction of the Schlotzsky's Deli restaurant on the site. The Company 
typically charges a construction management fee, plus interim interest on the 
Company's monies outstanding during construction. The cost of construction, 
interim interest and the management fee are collected upon completion of the 
restaurant. The Company believes the Turnkey Program enhances the Company's 
ability to recruit qualified franchisees by securing and developing high 
profile sites and achieving critical mass for advertising purposes more 
quickly in selected markets.

   Turnkey Program development is stated at the lower of cost or estimated 
net realizable value. Land, site development, building and equipment costs, 
including capitalized carrying costs (primarily interest incurred and 
property taxes), are accumulated and accounted for on a site specific basis. 
Construction costs incurred in connection with the development of properties 
are capitalized and accounted for with respect to each project. Generally, 
interest incurred and property taxes are capitalized until the related 
properties are ready for sale. Thereafter, such costs are charged to expense 
as they are incurred.

</TABLE>

     Turnkey Program sites in process at the end of a period are classified 
as current assets as management expects to complete and sell such sites 
within the next year.

USE OF ESTIMATES

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally 
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial 
statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting 
period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

   In February 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 132 "Employers' Disclosures and 
Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits", which significantly changes 
current financial statement disclosure requirements from those that were 
required under SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions", SFAS No. 
88, "Employers' Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined 
Benefit Pension Plans and for Termination Benefits", and SFAS No. 106, 
"Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions". SFAS 
No. 132 does not change the existing measurement of recognition provisions of 
SFAS Nos. 87, 88 or 106. SFAS No. 132 is effective for fiscal years beginning 
after December 15, 1997.
   
   Management does not believe the implementation of this recent accounting 
pronouncement will have a material effect on its consolidated financial 
statements.

NOTE 4. -- STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     During 1997, the Company sold in a public offering 1,731,825 shares of 
its Common Stock which generated net proceeds of approximately $29.6 million. 
A portion of the proceeds were used to repay debt owed to financial 
institutions and corporations.  The balance of the proceeds are being used to 
finance the development of several Company-owned restaurants and to develop 
restaurants under the Turnkey Program.


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

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 
1997

     REVENUES.  Total revenues increased 33.4% from $6,335,000 to $8,454,000.

     Royalties increased 29.9% from $3,278,000 to $4,259,000.  This increase was
due to the addition of 121 restaurants opened during the period from April 1,
1997 to March 31, 1998.  Also driving the increase was the growing influence of
larger freestanding units with higher visibility, a 12.1% increase in average
weekly sales and a 6.2% increase in same store sales.

     Franchise fees decreased 3.7% from $353,000 to $340,000.  This slight 
decrease was a result of a lower average franchise fee per unit opened during 
the three-month period ended March 31, 1998. A higher number of secondary 
restaurants, which have a lower franchise fee, were opened during the first 
quarter of 1998 than during the corresponding period in 1997.

     Restaurant sales increased 22.1% from $1,324,000 to $1,616,000.  This 
increase was attributable to an 11.0% increase in sales volume of the 
Company's Flagship restaurant and the relocation of two units in the Austin, 
Texas market which were closed or underperforming during the first quarter of 
1997. It is contemplated that four stores currently operated by the Company 
will remain Company-owned stores. It is the Company's intention to re-market 
certain units acquired from franchisees once their operations and 
profitability have improved.  Management has not established a timeframe to 
re-market these other restaurants.

     Brand contributions, or private label licensing fees, increased 60.7% 
from $535,000 to $860,000.  The increase was the result of the increasing 
volume of system-wide sales, which generate more purchases of private label 
products, and greater franchisee participation in the Company's purchasing 
programs.

   Turnkey development revenue increased 64.2% from $685,000 to $1,125,000. 
Cash received in excess of costs allocable to 1998 Turnkey Program 
transactions in which the Company provided credit enhancement on franchisees' 
leases was treated as deferred revenue, and accordingly, did not impact the 
current period's revenue or net income. Revenue which did impact 1998 
included  approximately $22,000 of rental revenue from sites completed and 
under lease. Fifteen sites developed under the Turnkey Program were sold 
during 1998, nine of which had no credit enhancement associated with the 
transaction and the revenues from that activity comprise the balance of 
Turnkey development revenue generated during this period.

     Other fees and revenues increased 57.8% from $161,000 to $254,000.  This 
change was primarily due to the increased level of supplier contributions to 
the Company's annual convention to be held in July 1998.

     The following table reflects the growth of the franchise system for the 
three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1997, which has been principally 
responsible for the increased revenue as discussed above.

</TABLE>

     COSTS AND EXPENSES.  Royalty service costs increased 34.7% from 
$1,203,000 to $1,621,000.  This increase was a direct result of the increase 
in royalty revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1998, as compared to 
the same period in the prior year.  Royalty service costs as a percentage of 
royalties grew from 36.7% to 38.1%.  This increase reflects the growing 
percentage of restaurants serviced by the area developer system. Area 
developers receive approximately 42% of the royalties from stores in their 
territories.

     Restaurant cost of sales, which consists of food, beverage and paper 
costs, increased 34.2% from $398,000 to $534,000, and as a percentage of 
restaurant sales increased from 30.1% to 33.0%.  Likewise, restaurant labor 
costs increased 42.5% from $530,000 to $755,000, and as a percentage of 
restaurant sales increased from 40.0% to 46.7% for the same quarter in 1997. 
Restaurant operating expenses have increased 25.3% from $399,000 to $500,000, 
and as a percentage of restaurant sales increased from 30.1% to 30.9% for the 
three months ended March 31, 1998, as compared to the corresponding period in 
1997. These percentage increases in restaurant cost of sales, restaurant 
labor cost and restaurant operating expenses were primarily attributable to 
pre-opening costs and operating inefficiencies related to the relocation of 
two Company-owned restaurants during the three months ended March 31, 1998.

     General and administrative expenses grew 45.1% from $2,010,000 to 
$2,916,000 and as a percentage of total revenues increased from 31.7% to 
34.5%. These increases are principally the result of additional personnel to 
support the growth at the corporate office to support the growing franchise 
system, including certain one time expenses related to the hiring and 
relocation of the individuals.

     Depreciation and amortization increased 26.4% from $250,000 to $316,000, 
but as a percentage of total revenues decreased from 3.9% to 3.7%.  The 
dollar increase was principally due to amortization of goodwill and other 
intangibles acquired in late 1997 and depreciation related to the additional 
Company-owned restaurants.

     OTHER.  Net interest income increased from $58,000 to $504,000. This 
increase was a result of the higher level of funds invested during the more 
recent period because of the secondary offering.

     INCOME TAX EXPENSE.  Income tax expense reflects a combined federal and 
state effective tax rate of 37.5% for the three months ended March 31, 1998, 
which is slightly lower than the effective combined tax rate for the 
comparable period in 1997.  Based on projections of taxable income, the 
Company anticipates that its effective combined rate for federal and state 
taxes will be approximately 37.5% for 1998.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

   Net cash used by operating activities was $6,374,000 for the first three 
months of 1998. Cash used to purchase and develop Turnkey Program properties 
exceeded the proceeds generated from the sale of Turnkey Program properties, 
and was the primary reason for the net use of cash.  Net cash of $2,028,000 
was used in investing activities primarily consisting of expenditures of 
$991,000 on the completion of the relocation of two Company-owned stores.  
Also, the Company used $176,000 to re-acquire the development rights to a 
domestic territory and to fund the costs associated with the establishment of 
a mortgage financing program for franchisees.
   
     During the first quarter of 1998, financing activities provided net cash 
of approximately $441,000 due primarily to the exercise of stock options and 
warrants.
   
   At March 31, 1998, the Company had approximately $2,174,000 of debt 
outstanding.  The Company guaranties certain real estate leases, equipment 
leases and other obligations of franchisees. At March 31, 1998, these 
contingent liabilities totaled approximately $25,213,000. Included in this 
amount is a construction loan for a limited partnership in which the Company 
and its subsidiary, Schlotzsky's Real Estate, Inc., own a combined 40% 
interest in capital and profits. The loan, for which the Company is liable 
for the full amount, had a balance of $1,110,000 at March 31, 1998, bears 
interest at prime plus 1.25% and matures April 2001. Monthly payments are 
being made by the limited partnership.
   
   The Company continues to expand and refine its Turnkey Program and expects 
that it will have 50 to 100 sites under contract or at various stages of 
development at any given time. The Company has used the net proceeds from its 
public offerings and the proceeds from sites sold and contracts assigned to 
finance the activity of the Turnkey Program. With the anticipated growth in 
the Turnkey Program, the capital required to finance the Turnkey Program will 
increase significantly.  Ninety-seven properties were under contract or in 
various stages of development at March 31, 1998. The tables below provide a 
summary of the Turnkey Program activity for the first quarter of 1997 and 
1998.

Turnkey Program revenue consisted of the following:

   The Company currently has a line of credit available from a financial 
institution to finance Turnkey Program capital requirements. The line of 
credit can be drawn upon to fund up to $12,000,000, bears interest at the 
bank's prime lending rate and expires April 2000. As of March 31, 1998, the 
Company had not drawn upon this line of credit.
   
   The Company believes that cash flow from operations, together with the 
proceeds of the Turnkey Program, collections from notes receivable and 
borrowings under existing credit facilities described above and the proceeds 
from its secondary offering will be sufficient to meet the Company's 
anticipated cash needs for the foreseeable future. To the extent that the net 
proceeds from the Turnkey Program, credit facilities, cash flow from 
operations and the proceeds from its secondary offering are insufficient to 
finance the Company's future expansion plans, the Company intends to seek 
additional funds for this purpose from future debt financings or additional 
offerings of equity securities, although there can be no assurance of the 
availability of such funds on acceptable terms in the future.
