NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 4, 1997 (Unaudited) AND JANUARY 6, 1996 (Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include those of
Jitney-Jungle Stores of America, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,
Southern Jitney Jungle Company, Interstate Jitney-Jungle Stores, Inc.,
McCarty-Holman Co., Inc. and subsidiary, and Jitney-Jungle Bakery, Inc. All
material intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been
eliminated.
These interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of
accounting principles used in the annual financial statements ended April
27, 1996. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (all of which were
of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair statement of consolidated
financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim
periods. The results of operations of the Company for the thirty-six weeks
ended January 4, 1997, are not necessarily indicative of the results which
may be expected for the entire year.
2. MERGER
On March 5, 1996, JJ Acquisitions Corp. ("JJAC") merged with and into the
Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (the
"Merger"). JJAC was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Bruckmann, Rosser, Sherrill
& Co., L. P. (the "Fund"). Upon consummation of the Merger, the Fund and
related investors received 83.82% of the Company's Common Stock and 11.76%
was retained by the shareholders at the time of the Merger. The Merger was
accounted for as a recapitalization which resulted in a charge to equity of
$312,541 to reflect the redemption of Common Stock of the Company
outstanding immediately prior to the Merger and related merger costs,
including a closing fee of $4,000 paid to the Fund Manager, an affiliate of
the Fund's sole General Partner.

Long-term debt ..................................... $ 233,590 $ 239,059
========= =========
</TABLE>
The Company has available a Credit Facility of $98,750 (the original total
commitment of $100,000 reduced by $1,250 on December 31, 1996 as per the
terms of the revolving credit agreement) under which letters of credit
aggregating $10,481 and borrowings of $33,590 were outstanding at January 4,
1997.
4. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE
Earnings (loss) per common and common equivalent share is based on net
income (loss) after preferred stock dividend requirements and the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during each interim period. Cumulative
dividends not declared or paid on preferred shares amounted to $5,060 for
the thirty-six weeks ended January 4, 1997. The number of shares used in
computing the earnings per share was 425,000 for the thirty-six weeks and
the twelve weeks ended January 4, 1997 and 20,368 for the thirty-six weeks
and the twelve weeks ended January 6, 1996. Incremental shares attributed to
outstanding warrants were not included in the computation as their effect on
earnings (loss) per share would be antidilutive.
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is a party to certain litigation incurred in the normal course
of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability, if any,
which may result from this litigation will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.
In connection with the Merger, the Company entered into an agreement whereby
the Fund Manager is entitled to receive $250 per year from the Company as a
management fee for the performance of strategic and financial planning
services. The amount of the annual management fee may be increased by up to
an additional $750 per year based upon certain performance criteria.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET SALES
Net sales increased $1,743 or .63% in the twelve week period and $10,392 or
1.26% in the thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 as compared to the
corresponding periods ended January 6, 1996. The net sales increase was
primarily attributable to the opening of new grocery stores and gasoline
stations (three supermarkets were opened and three were closed and 10 gasoline
stations were opened and one closed since January 6, 1996). Same store sales
decreased approximately 1.4% for the twelve week period and decreased
approximately .7% for the thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997. The
Company's store count at January 4, 1997 was 105 supermarkets (27 discount
stores and 78 conventional stores) and 51 gasoline stations as compared to 105
supermarkets (32 discount stores and 73 conventional stores) and 42 gasoline
stations at January 6, 1996.
The Company is focusing on a new frequent shopper program which was launched
subsequent to the end of the third quarter. While the Company believes that this
program will bring about increased sales and improved gross margins, there can
be no assurances of these results.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 23.2% for the third quarter ended
January 4, 1997 as compared to 24.1% for the same quarter of the preceding year.
The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to increased promotional
activities and a LIFO credit of $757 or .3% of sales in the prior year third
quarter. The gross profit percentage was even at 23.5% of net sales for the
thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 and for the corresponding period
ended January 6, 1996. The current year LIFO provision was a credit of $200 at
January 4, 1997 compared to a credit of $457 at January 6, 1996.
DIRECT STORE, WAREHOUSE AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Direct store, warehouse and administrative expenses were $56,767, or 20.3% of
net sales and $57,204, or 20.6% of net sales for the twelve week period and were
$169,839 or 20.4% of net sales and $169,067 or 20.6% of net sales for the
thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively.
The Company's continued implementation of cost reductions and improvements in
many areas including reductions in advertising expense and store supplies
expense and improvements in warehouse backhaul income has helped to control
direct store, warehouse and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales.
EBITDA
EBITDA (net income before interest income, interest expense, income taxes,
depreciation and amortization and LIFO charges/credits) was $15,511, or 5.5% of
net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to $15,301 or 5.5% of
net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1996. EBITDA was $47,101 or 5.7% of net
-9-
<PAGE>
sales and $41,732 or 5.1% of net sales for the thirty-six week period ended
January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively. EBITDA as presented is
consistent with the definition used for covenant purposes contained in the
Indenture. EBITDA is a widely accepted financial indicator of a company's
ability to service debt. However, EBITDA should not be construed as an
alternative to operating income, net income or cash flows from operating
activities (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles) and should not be construed as an indication of the Company's
operating performance or as a measure of liquidity.
NET INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense was $8,478 in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 as compared to
$2,368 in the third quarter of fiscal 1996 and was $25,207 and $7,057 for the
thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively.
This increase in interest expense was due to the Company's long-term debt
increasing from $34,740 at April 29, 1995 to $233,590 at January 4, 1997 as a
result of the Merger and the decrease in interest income which was approximately
$81 and $2,224 for the thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 and January
6, 1996, respectively.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT)
Income taxes were ($95) with an effective tax rate of 37.3% for the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 and $2,821 with an effective tax rate of 37.5% for the
third quarter of fiscal 1996. Income taxes were $210 with an effective tax rate
of 37.3% and $6,341 with an effective tax rate of 37.5% for the thirty-six week
period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively. The decrease in
income taxes was principally due to lower pretax earnings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Historically, the Company has funded its working capital requirements, capital
expenditures and other needs principally from operating cash flows. Due to the
Merger, however, the Company has become highly leveraged and has certain
restrictions on its operations. The Company's principal sources of liquidity are
expected to be cash flow from operations and borrowings under the $98,750 Credit
Facility (under which letters of credit aggregating $10,481 and borrowings of
$33,590 were outstanding at January 4, 1997).
Cash provided by operating activities during the thirty-six week period ended
January 4, 1997 was $28,165 compared to $32,472 for the thirty-six week period
ended January 6, 1996. The largest component of the change in cash provided by
operating activities was the decrease in net income due primarily to the
increase in cash interest expense this year as a result of additional borrowing
activities discussed above. In addition, inventory increased $3,178 this year as
compared to a decrease of $4,164 last year. The Company also received $5,250 in
May, 1996 as consideration for entering into a five year supply agreement with
the purchaser of certain bakery assets from the Company. Additionally, accrued
expenses increased $4,698 primarily due to an increase in accrued interest as a
result of additional borrowing activities discussed above.
Net cash used in investing activities was $18,348 and $11,936 for the thirty-six
week period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively. Cash was
-10-
<PAGE>
primarily used for capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were $19,836 and
$17,504 for the thirty-six week period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6,
1996, respectively.
Net cash used in financing activities was $7,851 and $8,890 for the thirty-six
week period ended January 4, 1997 and January 6, 1996, respectively. The
principal use of funds in financing activities for the thirty-six week period
ended January 4, 1997 was the payment of principal on long-term debt (including
the Credit Facility) and capital lease obligations.
The Company believes that capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 1997
will be financed through cash flows from operations and borrowings under its
Credit Facility. Capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 1997 are
expected to be approximately $5,000 which will include expenditures primarily
for store remodels, new gasoline stations and for the completion of the
Company's MIS upgrade. Capital expenditure plans are continuously evaluated and
modified from time to time depending on cash availability and other economic
factors.
