SRI RECEIVABLES PURCHASE CO., INC.
(An indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Stage Stores, Inc.)
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of SRI
Receivables Purchase Co., Inc. (the "Company" or "SRPC") have been prepared in
accordance with Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X and do not include all the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. Those adjustments, which include only normal
recurring adjustments, that are in the opinion of management, necessary for a
fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, have been made. The
results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of
results of operations for a full year. The unaudited financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto
for the year ended January 31, 1998 filed with SRPC's Annual Report on Form
10-K. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform
with the current year presentation. The fiscal years discussed herein end on the
Saturday nearest to January 31 in the following calendar year. For example,
references to "1998" mean the fiscal year ended January 30, 1999.
2. SRPC is a wholly owned, special-purpose subsidiary of Specialty
Retailers, Inc. ("SRI"). The Company's ultimate parent is Stage Stores, Inc.
("Stage Stores"). The Company was incorporated in 1993 and established to
acquire substantially all of the trade accounts receivable generated by holders
of SRI's private label credit card accounts and transfer such accounts
receivable to SRI Receivables Master Trust under the terms of a pooling and
servicing agreement. The Company is a separate and distinct entity from Stage
Stores and it's other affiliates. The Company was established with the intent
that in the event of a liquidation, it's creditors would be entitled to satisfy
their claims from the Company's assets prior to any distribution to Stage Stores
or any of it's subsidiaries.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
"SAFE HARBOR" STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM
ACT OF 1995.
Certain items discussed or incorporated by reference herein contain
forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties including, but
not limited to, the seasonality of demand for apparel which can be affected by
weather patterns, levels of competition, competitors' marketing strategies,
changes in fashion trends and availability of product, the failure of SRI to
achieve the expected results of merchandising and marketing plans or store
opening or closing plans. The occurrence of any of the above could have a
material adverse impact on the amount or quality of accounts receivable
transferred to SRPC, which in turn could affect the operating results of SRPC.
Additionally, changes in economic conditions (including interest rates and
payment patterns of the holders of SRI private label credit card accounts) could
negatively impact SRPC's results of operations. Certain information herein
contains estimates, which represent management's best judgment as of the date
hereof based on information currently available; however, SRPC does not intend
to update this information to reflect developments or information obtained after
the date hereof and disclaims any legal obligation to the contrary.
FIRST QUARTER 1998 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 1997
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations is limited to an analysis of results of operations between first
quarter 1998 and first quarter 1997, pursuant to General Instruction H of Form
10-Q
The gain associated with the Retained Certificates for the first quarter
of 1998 decreased 72.2% to $0.5 million from $1.8 million in the same period in
1997 due to an increase in premium payments to SRI for the purchase of accounts
receivable partially offset by an increase in the amount of service charge
income and decrease in bad debt expense. Interest income on balances with SRI
increased 70.0% to $1.7 million in the first quarter of 1998 from $1.0 million
in the first quarter of 1997 primarily due to an increase in the net cash
advances to SRI. Interest expense remained the same at $.9 million in the first
quarters of 1998 and 1997.
