CHILDTIME LEARNING CENTERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FORM 10-Q
(1) GENERAL
The consolidated financial statements of Childtime Learning Centers,
Inc. (the "Company") are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include
all adjustments necessary to fairly state the Company's financial condition,
results of operations and its cash flows, for the interim periods presented. The
results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be expected for the full fiscal year. These statements should be read
in conjunction with the Company's annual report for the fiscal year ended April
3, 1998.
(2) PRINCIPALS OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Childtime
Learning Centers, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary, Childtime Childcare, Inc.,
and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Childtime Childcare - Michigan, Inc., and
Childtime Childcare - PMC, Inc. (together referred to as the "Company"). All
significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
(3) FISCAL YEAR
The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Friday
closest to March 31. Fiscal year 1999 will contain 52 weeks, while fiscal year
1998 contained 53 weeks. For both fiscal years 1998 and 1999, the year-to-date
periods contained forty weeks while the third quarters contained twelve weeks.
(4) ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE
Accounts receivable is presented net of an allowance for doubtful
accounts. At January 8, 1999 the allowance for doubtful accounts was $245,000
while at April 3, 1998 the allowance for doubtful accounts was $225,000.
(5) INCOME TAXES
The Company provides for income taxes in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which
requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected
future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and
assets are determined based on the difference between financial statement and
tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the
year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

FORM 10-Q
(6) EARNINGS PER SHARE
For the twelve-week and forty-week periods ended January 8, 1999 and
January 2, 1998, basic earnings per share have been calculated by dividing
earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share have been
calculated by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the assumed
conversion of all potentially dilutive stock options (38,379 shares for the
twelve week period ended January 8, 1999; 50,469 shares for the forty week
period ended January 8, 1999; 29,786 shares for the twelve week period ended
January 2, 1998; and 12,868 shares for the forty week period ended January 2,
1998).
(7) RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No.130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" and SFAS 131, "Disclosure about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information". The Company has adopted the provisions of these statements, as
required, for the year ended April 2, 1999. These statements had no significant
impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
(8) SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION
In connection with the acquisition of certain centers, the Company
incurred seller-financed debt of $1,493,000 during the forty weeks ended January
8, 1999 and $1,587,000 during the forty weeks ended January 2, 1998.
(9) RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the
presentation adopted in the current year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Form 10-Q
GENERAL
The information presented herein refers to the twelve weeks ("third
quarter 1999") and the forty weeks ("year-to-date 1999") ended January 8, 1999,
compared to the twelve weeks ("third quarter 1998") and the forty weeks
("year-to-date 1998") ended January 2, 1998.
During the third quarter 1999, the Company acquired 9 centers and
opened 2 centers as compared to acquiring 8 centers, opening 1 center and
closing 3 centers during the third quarter 1998. During year-to-date 1999, the
Company acquired 22 centers, opened 5 centers and closed 1 center as compared to
acquiring 23 centers, opening 7 centers and closing 4 centers during
year-to-date 1998. Accordingly, as of January 8, 1999, the Company operated 268
centers, as compared to 237 centers at January 2, 1998. The results of centers
opened, acquired or disposed of are included in the Company's financial
statements from the date of opening or acquisition and through the date of
disposition, as applicable. The timing of such new openings, acquisitions or
dispositions could influence comparisons of year over year results.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Third quarter 1999 revenues increased to $25,524,000 from $21,545,000
for the third quarter 1998, an 18.5% increase. This increase was principally
attributable to increased revenues from centers opened or acquired in fiscal
1998 ($1,600,000, or 7.4%) and centers opened or acquired in fiscal 1999
($1,848,000, or 8.6%). Year-to-date 1999 revenues increased to $84,876,000 from
year-to-date 1998 revenues of $71,612,000, an 18.5% increase. This increase was
principally attributable to increased revenues from centers opened or acquired
in fiscal 1998 ($7,712,000, or 10.8%) and centers opened or acquired in fiscal
1999 ($3,327,000, or 4.7%). The remaining increase for both the third quarter
and year-to-date 1999 was principally attributable to the growth in comparable
centers, partially offset by centers closed during fiscal 1999.
Comparable center revenues (centers operating during all of
year-to-date 1999 and year-to-date 1998) increased 3.2% ($694,000) for the third
quarter 1999. Year-to-date comparable center revenues increased 3.4%
($2,422,000). Both the third quarter and year-to-date 1999 increases were
principally the result of increased tuition rates.
Third quarter 1999 gross profit increased to $3,493,000 (13.7% of
revenues) from $2,836,000 (13.2% of revenues) for the third quarter 1998, a
23.2% increase. The increase in gross profit was principally from centers opened
or acquired in fiscal 1998 ($371,000), and to comparable center growth
($433,000). Third quarter gross operating losses from centers opened or acquired
in fiscal 1999 ($111,000) partially offset these increases. Year-to-date 1999
gross profit increased to $12,021,000 (14.2% of revenues) from $10,180,000
(14.2% of revenues), an 18.1% increase. The year-to-date 1999 increase in gross
profit was principally from centers opened or acquired in fiscal 1998
($1,486,000) and, to a lesser extent, comparable center growth ($746,000). Gross
operating losses from centers opened or acquired in fiscal 1999 ($265,000)
partially offset these increases.

Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Form 10-Q
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
Comparable center gross profit (centers operating during all of
year-to-date 1999 and year-to-date 1998) increased 15.3% ($433,000) for the
third quarter 1999. Year-to-date 1999 comparable center gross profit increased
7.3% ($746,000). For both the third quarter and year-to-date 1999, the majority
of this increase is due to increased operating leverage provided by increased
revenues and, to a lesser extent, the timing of December holidays and the impact
of the previously disclosed straight-line rent adjustment.
Marketing expenses increased 18.3% to $356,000 for the third quarter
1999 from $301,000 for the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date 1999 marketing
expenses increased 15.4% to $1,156,000 from $1,002,000. These increases were
primarily due to the additional expenses associated with the promotion and
marketing activities for 268 centers as of the end of the third quarter 1999, as
compared to 237 centers at the end of the third quarter 1998. As a percentage of
revenues, marketing expenses remained constant for both year-to-date and the
third quarter 1999 and 1998, at 1.4% of revenues.
General and administrative expenses increased 13.9% to $1,608,000 for
the third quarter 1999 from $1,412,000 for the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date
1999 general and administrative expenses increased 14.7% to $5,280,000 from
$4,604,000. As a percentage of revenues, general and administrative expenses
decreased to 6.3% of revenues for the third quarter 1999 from 6.6% of revenues
for the comparable period of 1998. Year-to-date 1999 general and administrative
expenses decreased to 6.2% of revenues from 6.4% of revenues for the comparable
period of 1998. These decreases were due primarily to operating leverage
provided by higher revenues.
As a result of the foregoing changes, operating income increased to
$1,530,000 for the third quarter 1999 from $1,124,000 for the third quarter
1998. The operating income change of $406,000 represents an increase of 36.1%
over the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date 1999 operating income increased 22.1%
to $5,585,000 from $4,574,000.
Interest expense increased to $75,000 for the third quarter 1999 from
$71,000 for the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date 1999 interest expense increased
to $237,000 from $207,000. These increases were due to a net increase in debt
incurred with the acquisition of centers.
Year-to-date 1999 other income increased to $67,000 from $18,000. This
increase was principally due to a gain realized on the extinguishment of certain
acquisition indebtedness.
The provision for income taxes increased to $567,000 (an effective tax
rate of 37.7%) for the third quarter 1999 from $430,000 (an effective tax rate
of 38.5%) for the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date 1999 provision for income
taxes increased to $2,117,000 (an effective tax rate of 37.7%) from $1,755,000
(an effective tax rate of 38.5%). Both the third quarter and year-to-date 1999
decreases in the effective tax rate were principally due to anticipated savings
resulting from tax strategies implemented during the current fiscal year.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Form 10-Q
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - CONTINUED
As a result of the foregoing changes, net income increased to $939,000,
or 3.7% of revenues for the third quarter 1999, from $687,000, or 3.2% of
revenues for the third quarter 1998. Year-to-date 1999 net income increased to
$3,496,000, or 4.1% of revenues, from $2,801,000, or 3.9% of revenues.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's primary cash requirements currently consist of its new
center expansion program and maintenance of existing centers. The Company
believes that cash flow from operations, together with amounts available under a
$10 million unsecured revolving line of credit facility, will be sufficient to
satisfy the Company's anticipated cash requirements on both a long-term and
short-term basis. The line of credit bears annual interest at either the prime
rate or an adjusted Eurodollar based rate, at the Company's option. The Company
has not utilized its unsecured revolving line of credit.
Net cash provided by operations increased to $3,725,000 for
year-to-date 1999, from $3,412,000 for year-to-date 1998. Year-to-date 1999 cash
provided by operations and existing cash balances of $2,712,000 were principally
used to add 27 centers, make capital improvements to existing centers and
upgrade information technology systems aggregating $4,794,000, as well as to pay
down debt of $925,000. Expenditures related to information technology systems
were part of management's five-year information system plan to accommodate the
growth of the Company for the next five to ten years. In connection with this
plan, the Company purchased and capitalized financial software upgrades and
related hardware of approximately $144,000 during year-to-date 1998, $153,000
during year-to-date fiscal 1999, and has plans to spend approximately $100,000 -
$175,000 to complete this plan during the next six months. The Company has
incurred additional seller-financed notes payable of approximately $1,493,000
during year-to-date 1999, related to the acquisition of centers.
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 Issue is the result of computer programs that were
written using two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. If the
Company's computer programs with date-sensitive functions are not Year 2000
compliant, they may recognize a date using "00" as the Year 1900, rather than
the Year 2000. This could result in a system failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a temporary inability
to process transactions.
The Company has evaluated its Year 2000 risks and compliance by
identifying three major components: information technology systems,
non-information technology systems, including internal embedded chip technology
and third party risks.
10
<PAGE> 11
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued
Form 10-Q
IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 - CONTINUED
Information Technology Systems
The Company has purchased and implemented general ledger and accounts
payable financial software during fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1999, which has been
certified as Year 2000 compliant from the software vendor. These systems have
been implemented as of October 1998. The Company has also purchased a center
information system, which has been certified as Year 2000 compliant from the
software vendor. This system is in the implementation phase, with full
implementation scheduled by July 31, 1999. Based on this schedule, the Company
expects to be in full compliance with its internal financial systems before the
Year 2000. However, if the implementation is not completed on a timely basis,
the Year 2000 Issue could have a material impact on the operations of the
Company. Because Year 2000 compliant information technology systems have been
purchased and implementation has either been completed or is currently in the
implementation phase, contingency plans have not been established. Each of the
above described information technology systems were purchased pursuant to
upgrades necessary to provide adequate financial reporting and control directly
connected to the growth of the Company, rather than to address the Year 2000
Issue. Accordingly, no information systems costs have been associated with the
Year 2000 Issue. However, see Liquidity and Capital Resources for costs
associated with general upgrades.
Non-Information and internal embedded chip Technology
The Company has completed the data-gathering phase with regard to
imbedded chip technology and the impact of the Year 2000 Issue on its
non-financial systems. Inquiries have been made to providers of alarm systems
installed at various locations. Written and verbal confirmations have been
received, documenting that such systems are either Year 2000 compliant, or that
the model installed does not have any date driven technology. Management
believes that even if the Company is unable to achieve Year 2000 compliance for
its major non-financial systems, related Year 2000 Issues will not have a
material impact on the operations of the Company. Accordingly, the Company does
not have a contingency plan in place for its non-information and internal
embedded chip technology risk.
Third Party Risks
The Company has identified and contacted its subsidy/funding providers,
major vendors and financial service organizations to determine the extent to
which the Company's operations and interface systems would be vulnerable to
those third parties' failure to remedy their own Year 2000 Issues. The Company
has received positive compliance status from approximately 65 percent of
identified major third party risks and is expecting a significantly complete
response by March 31, 1999. The Company currently estimates that between ten to
fifteen percent of its revenues are related to subsidy/funding providers. In the
event all third party subsidy/funding providers fail to comply with Year 2000
requirements, the Company could experience cash flow

delays that could have a material impact on its operations. Management believes
that, while the Company could experience delays in collecting receivables from
such third parties, the collectibility of such receivables would not be
significantly adversely impacted. The Company is currently reviewing contingency
plans that include alternative reporting and payment processing to
subsidy/funding providers to minimize any collection delays. To the extent that
vendor responses to Year 2000 readiness are unsatisfactory, the Company intends
to change vendors to those who have demonstrated Year 2000 readiness. There are
no assurances, however, that the Company would be successful in finding such
alternative vendors.
