                        PJ AMERICA REPORTS EARNINGS AND
                      REVENUES FOR SECOND QUARTER OF 1997


Birmingham, Alabama, July 9, 1997

     PJ America, Inc. (NASDAQ: PJAM), the largest franchisee of Papa John's 
International, Inc., announced revenues of $12.0 million and pro forma net 
income of $841 thousand for the second quarter ended June 29, 1997.  These 
results compare to pro forma revenues of $9.4 million and pro forma net income 
of $458 thousand for the same period in 1996.  Pro forma net income per share 
for the quarter was 16 cents compared to 13 cents for the second quarter of 
1996, with 50% more shares outstanding in 1997.  The above pro forma results 
include expenses of $124 thousand incurred in connection with the merger of Ohio
Pizza Delivery (OPD), which have been expensed in the second quarter of 1997.

     The pro forma financial results for all periods discussed above have been 
restated to give retroactive effect to the merger with OPD on June 5, 1997, in a
transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests, as if the merger had 
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1996.  The pro forma financial results for 
the three and six months ended in 1996 are presented as if the Company had 
acquired the Virginia restaurants at the beginning of 1996.  The Virginia 
restaurants were acquired by the Company on October 30, 1996, concurrent with 
the closing of the Company's initial public offering.

     Comparable restaurant sales for the quarter increased 8.8%.  During the 
second quarter, three restaurants were opened, as planned, and the Company 
acquired eight restaurants in the OPD merger.  The increase in revenues and net 
income were primarily due to the increase in comparable restaurant sales, sales 
from additional restaurants, and improved operating margins.

     At June 29, 1997, the Company operated 60 Papa John's restaurants in 
Alabama, Virginia, Texas and Ohio.
