ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
On February 24, 1998, Star Buffet, Inc. (the "Company"), through its
wholly-owned subsidiary Summit Family Restaurants Inc. ("Summit"), acquired
substantially all of the assets of 12 JB's Restaurants for $4,265,000 in cash
from JB's Restaurants, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CKE Restaurants, Inc.,
pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of February 10,
1998.
A Form 8-K was filed on March 9, 1998 reporting this transaction. This
amended Current Report is being filed to submit audited financial statements for
the 12 JB's Restaurants and the pro forma combined financial information, all as
required pursuant to Item 7.
ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND
EXHIBITS
(a) Financial Statements of Business Acquired. The financial statements
required by Item 7(a) are attached herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information. The unaudited pro forma condensed
combined financial statements prepared in accordance with Regulation
S-X and required to be filed pursuant to this Item 7(b), including the
notes thereto, are qualified in their entirety by reference to, and
should be read in conjunction with, the historical consolidated
financial statements of the Company, including the notes thereto, and
the historical financial statements of JB's Restaurants, Inc. attached
herewith as Exhibit 99.1. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined
financial statements are attached herewith as Exhibit 99.2.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the
historical consolidated balance sheet of the Company and the historical
balance sheet of the segment of the 12 JB's restaurants acquired by the
Company (the "Segment") as if the acquisition had been effective on
December 31, 1997. The pro forma condensed combined statement of income
for the year ended December 31, 1997 combines the historical
consolidated statement of income for the Company and the historical
statement of income for the Segment as if the acquisition had been
effective on January 1, 1997.
The acquisition reflected in the pro forma financial statements will be
accounted for as a purchase. Under this method of accounting, assets
and liabilities of the Segment will be adjusted to their estimated fair
value and combined with the recorded values of the assets and
liabilities of the Company. For purposes of the pro forma financial
statements, it has been assumed that the net book value of the
Segment's assets minus liabilities approximates fair value.
The pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only
and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or the
financial position that would
<PAGE> 3
have occurred if the acquisition had been consummated at the beginning
of the period presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of future
operating results or financial position.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Board of Directors
JB's Family Restaurants, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of a segment of 12 JB's
family restaurants sold to Star Buffet, Inc. (see Note 1) as listed in the
accompanying index. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As described in Note 1, the accompanying financial statements were prepared
solely to present the assets to be acquired and the liabilities to be assumed
pursuant to the purchase agreement between Star Buffet, Inc. and JB's Family
Restaurants, Inc. and are not intended to be a complete presentation of the
assets and liabilities of the segment of 12 JB's Restaurants sold to Star
Buffet, Inc.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the segment of 12 JB's family
restaurants sold to Star Buffet, Inc. as of January 26, 1998 and January 27,
1997, and the results of its operations for the 52 weeks ended January 26, 1998,
the 28 weeks ended January 27, 1997, and the 42 weeks ended July 15, 1996 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
As described in Note 1 to the Financial Statements, effective July 15, 1996, CKE
Restaurants, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding stock of Summit Family
Restaurants, Inc. in a business combination accounted for as a purchase. As a
result of the acquisition, the financial information for the periods after the
acquisition is presented on a different cost basis than that for the periods
before the acquisition and, therefore, is not comparable.

SEGMENT OF 12 JB'S RESTAURANTS SOLD TO STAR BUFFET, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 -- SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of certain significant accounting policies not disclosed
elsewhere in the footnotes to the financial statements is set forth below.
Description of Business
JB's Family Restaurants, Inc. (JBRI) owns, operates and franchises the
JB's restaurant concept. As of January 26, 1998, the system included 94
restaurants, of which 74 were operated by JBRI and 20 were operated by
franchisees. JBRI also operates six Galaxy Diner restaurants. As of February 24,
1998, Star Buffet, Inc. ("Star") acquired the assets and assumed some of the
liabilities of 12 of the 74 JB's restaurants owned by JBRI. The accompanying
Statements of Assets to be Acquired and Liabilities to be Assumed and Statements
of Revenues and Expenses reflect the net assets and operations of the segment of
12 stores to be acquired. These 12 restaurants (hereinafter referred to as the
"Segment") exist in five western states mostly in Utah and Montana. Assets and
liabilities of JBRI that were not acquired or assumed and have no continuing
significance to the Segment have been omitted from the Statements of Assets to
be Acquired and Liabilities to be Assumed.
The business and operations of JBRI have undergone several changes in
ownership in the past two years. On July 15, 1996, Summit Family Restaurants
Inc. (Summit), JBRI's predecessor, was acquired by CKE Restaurants, Inc. (CKE).
Summit was the parent corporation of HTB Restaurants, Inc. (HTB) which operated
16 HomeTown Buffet restaurants as a franchisee of HomeTown Buffet, Inc. On
September 22, 1997, Summit transferred selected assets and liabilities which
included its JB's Restaurant system and Galaxy Diner restaurants to JBRI, a
newly formed subsidiary of CKE. Concurrent with this transfer, CKE contributed
all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Summit in exchange
for 2,600,000 shares of Common Stock of Star Buffet, Inc. and thereby
transferred all of the net assets of HTB to Star at its book value for
$8,507,000. Because of these changes in ownership the Segment's financial
statements and accompanying notes include results of operations of the Segment
prior to CKE's acquisition (Predecessor) and after its acquisition by CKE
(Successor).
"Predecessor" means the 12 JB's Restaurants owned by Summit for all
periods prior to July 16, 1996.
"Successor" means the 12 JB's Restaurants owned by Summit (as a
subsidiary of CKE) for the period July 16, 1996 through September 22, 1997 and
the 12 JB's Restaurants owned by JBRI (as a subsidiary of CKE) for all periods
from and after September 23, 1997.
Fiscal Year
The Segment utilizes a 52/53 week fiscal year which ends on the last
Monday in January. The Predecessor had a 52/53 week fiscal year which ended on
the last Monday in September.
Cash and Cash Equivalent
The Successor participates in a cash management program with CKE
whereby excess cash is distributed to CKE from time to time. The portion of
total cash distributed to CKE allocable to the Segment was $750,000 and $375,000
for the 52 week period ended January 26, 1998, and the 28 week period ended
January 27, 1997.
Cash equivalents consist of short-term liquid assets with original
maturities of 3 months or less.

SEGMENT OF 12 JB'S RESTAURANTS SOLD TO STAR BUFFET, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Inventories
Inventories consist of food, beverages and restaurant supplies and are
valued at the lower of cost, determined by the first-in first-out method, or
market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment and real property under capitalized leases are
carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation
and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the following
useful lives: buildings and leaseholds -- lesser of lease life or 20 years;
equipment -- 5 to 8 years; capitalized leases -- lesser of lease life or 20
years.
Pre-Opening Costs
Pre-opening costs, which represent expenses incurred for hiring and
training personnel relating to new restaurants and expenses for promotion of new
store openings, are capitalized and amortized over the restaurant's first year
of operation.
Franchising Revenues and Expenses
Prior to January 1997, one of the 12 restaurants was operated by a
franchisee of JBRI. Franchise royalty revenues and all franchising costs are
recognized on the accrual basis.
Advertising costs
Advertising costs are expensed when incurred.
Costs in excess of net assets acquired
Costs in excess of net assets acquired represent expenses incurred by
CKE upon its acquisition of Summit. These costs are amortized over 40 years.
Amortization expense for costs in the 52 weeks ended January 26, 1998; the 28
weeks ended January 27, 1997 and the 42 weeks ended July 15, 1996 is $13,000;
$6,000 and $18,000 respectively. Accumulated amortization as of January 26,
1998 and January 27, 1997 was $19,000 and $6,000 respectively.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the segment is estimated at 40% of net income.
Estimations & Allocation of Expenses
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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management
believes this methodology is reasonable.

NOTE 8 -- LONG-TERM LEASES
The Segment occupies one of its restaurants under a long-term lease
expiring in 2004. Most restaurant leases have renewal options for terms of five
to twenty years, and substantially all require the payment of real estate taxes
and insurance. Certain of the leases provide for rent to be the greater of a
stipulated minimum rent or a specified percentage of sales.
Rent expense for the 52 weeks ended January 26, 1998, the 28 weeks
ended January 27, 1997, and the 42 weeks ended July 15, 1996 was $475,000,
$384,000, and $414,000, respectively. Contingent rentals, measured as a
percentage of sales, included in rent expense for the same periods were $68,000,
$54,000, and $72,000, respectively.
Future aggregate minimum rental payments on noncancellable leases as of
January 26, 1998, exclusive of taxes, insurance and percentage rentals based on
sales are as follows:

NOTE 9 -- EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
The Predecessor had an employee stock ownership plan to which it
contributed funds as authorized by the Board of Directors. This plan was
terminated on October 15, 1996. The plan had the authority to purchase shares of
Summit's common stock. All employees of the Segment who had one year of service
and were over age 21 participated in the plan.
Participant vesting began with the third year of participation in the
plan at the rate of 20 percent per year. Funds contributed to the plan were used
to retire debt previously incurred, to pay participants who are entitled to
benefits under the plan and to purchase shares of Summit's common stock. As of
January 26, 1998, $42,000 remains in the plan which will be distributed to plan
participants in calendar 1998.
401 (k) Plan
Summit has a 401 (k) plan covering employees of the Segment who have
attained age 21 and completed one year of service. The plan allows participants
to allocate up to 10% of their annual compensation before taxes for investment
in several investment alternatives. There have been no contributions to the plan
since September of 1995.

In connection with the acquisition of Summit, CKE assumed the options
outstanding under Summit's existing option plans: the 1984 Incentive Stock
Option Plan, the 1987 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan, the 1987 Employee
Incentive Stock Option Plan and the 1992 Stock Option Plan. Pursuant to the
terms of the acquisition, options under these plans became fully vested on July
15, 1996. The options granted in accordance with these four plans generally had
a term of five to ten years. Under these plans, there were 24,069 stock options
outstanding at January 26, 1998 with exercise prices ranging from $13.24 to
$23.45 per share. No further shares may be granted under these plans.
During fiscal year 1998, CKE granted options to certain employees of
JBRI and Summit under CKE's 1994 stock incentive plans. As of January 26, 1998,

SEGMENT OF 12 JB'S RESTAURANTS SOLD TO STAR BUFFET, INC.
NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE A: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet combines the historical
consolidated balance sheet of Star Buffet, Inc. (Star) and the historical
Statement of Assets to be Acquired and Liabilities to be Assumed of the segment
of the 12 JB's restaurants acquired by Star (the Segment) as if the acquisition
had been effective on January 26, 1998. The pro forma condensed combined
statement of income for the year ended January 26, 1998 combines the historical
consolidated statement of income for Star and the historical statement of income
for the Segment as if the acquisition had been effective on January 27, 1997.
The acquisition reflected in the unaudited pro forma financial statements will
be accounted for as a purchase. Under this method of accounting, assets and
liabilities of the Segment will be adjusted to their estimated fair value and
combined with the recorded values of the assets and liabilities of Star. For
purposes of the pro forma financial statements, it has been assumed that the net
book value of the Segment's assets minus liabilities approximates fair value.
This allocation could change significantly at the time the estimated fair value
of such assets and liabilities is determined.
NOTE B: PURCHASE PRICE
The purchase price for the net assets acquired was $4.34 million with an
additional $485 thousand paid as a prepaid royalty fee. The funds used for the
acquisition were part of the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering of Star on
September 30, 1997. The total funds paid have been used to reduce the cash
balance on the pro forma balance sheet.
NOTE C: GOODWILL
The purchase price for the net assets of the Segment was $ 1,041,000 in excess
of the fair market value resulting in goodwill. These costs are amortized over
40 years.
NOTE D: FORMAT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STAR BUFFET, INC. AND SEGMENT FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
The presentation of the statement of operations for the 12 JB's in the pro forma
statement of operations for 1998 is in a different format than the statement of
operations for Star Buffet. Part of the pro forma adjustments includes amounts
to make the format of the statement of operations for the 12 JB's consistent
with the format of the statement of operations for Star Buffet, Inc.
NOTE E: ADJUSTMENT FOR DIFFERENCE DUE TO ASSETS NOT ACQUIRED AND
LIABILITIES NOT ASSUMED
The acquisition took place on February 24, 1998. Adjustments have been made to
reflect assets not acquired and liabilities not assumed.
NOTE F: INTEREST INCOME
The adjustment to interest income represents the reduction in interest earned on
the funds to acquire the 12 JB's Restaurants at January 27, 1997. Interest on
the funds used to acquire the 12 JB's Restaurants was based on Star's
investments in commercial paper yielding approximately 6%.
