4. Long-Term Debt
In September 1999, the Company and one of its lenders obtained to
additional borrowings of $16.0 million, received a commitment for an
additional $15.0 million over the next two years for construction purposes,
and revised terms for approximately $9.3 million in existing long-term debt.
The additional borrowings of $16.0 million has an average life of
approximately 10.6 years and an interest rate of 8.26%. The Company will make
principal and interest payments under the existing terms of the $9.3 million
long-term note payable through December 2003. The revised terms will become
effective in December 2003 based on a 15-year amortization and maturing in
September 2014. The debt is secured by certain assets located in Ohio,
Kentucky, and Tennessee.
In February 2000, the Company obtained a borrowing of $14.0 million. The
terms of the note payable provide for a 10-year amortization period and an
interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75% maturing in 2007. The note is secured by
certain assets acquired from Smith Farms.
The Company is required by provisions of its note payable agreements to
maintain certain minimum financial covenants. For the current quarter, the
Company did not meet its interest coverage ratio and tangible net worth
requirements pertaining to three long-term note payable agreements totaling
$51 million. It also did not meet its funded debt ratio requirement pertaining
to one of these long-term note payable agreements and its $35 million line of
credit. The Company does not anticipate meeting these requirements in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. It has received a waiver of these requirements
for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2000 and anticipates amending the
agreements to ensure compliance with these requirements in fiscal 2001.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OVERVIEW
The Company is primarily engaged in the production, cleaning, grading,
packing, and sale of fresh shell eggs. The Company's fiscal year end is the
Saturday closest to May 31.
The Company's operations are fully integrated. It owns facilities to
hatch chicks, grow pullets, manufacture feed, and produce, process, and
distribute shell eggs. The Company currently is the largest producer and
distributor of fresh shell eggs in the United States. The shell egg segment
sales, including feed sales to outside egg producers, accounted for 98% of the
Company's net sales. The Company primarily markets its shell eggs in the
southwestern, southeastern, mid-western and mid-Atlantic regions of the United
States. Shell eggs are sold directly by the Company primarily to national and
regional supermarket chains.
The Company currently uses contract producers for approximately 23% of
its total egg production. Contract producers operate under agreements with the
Company for the use of their facilities in the production of shell eggs by
layers owned by the Company, which owns the eggs produced. Also, shell eggs
are purchased, as needed, from outside producers for resale by the Company.
The Company's operating income or loss is significantly affected by
wholesale shell egg market prices, which can fluctuate widely and are outside
of the Company's control. Retail sales of shell eggs are greatest during the
fall and winter months and lowest during the summer months. Prices for shell
eggs fluctuate in response to seasonal factors and an increase in egg demand
during the winter months.
The Company's cost of production is materially affected by feed costs,
which average about 60% of Cal-Maine's' total farm egg production cost.
Changes in feed costs result in changes in the Company's cost of goods sold.
The cost of feed ingredients is affected by a number of supply and demand
factors such as crop production and weather, and other factors, such as the
level of grain exports, over which the Company has little or no control.

</TABLE>
NET SALES
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2000 were $79.2 million, an
increase of $1.3 million, or 1.7% as compared to net sales for the third
quarter of fiscal 1999. Although the total dozens of eggs sold increased in
the current quarter, egg selling prices were down significantly as compared
with prices a year ago. Dozens sold for the current quarter were 138.2 million
dozen, an increase of 30.7 million dozen, or 28.6% as compared to the third
quarter of last year. The Smith Farms acquisition in September 1999 and the
Hudson Brothers acquisition in May 1999 accounted for substantially all of the
increase in dozens sold. The Company's net average selling price per dozen for
the fiscal 2000 third quarter was $.536, compared to $.679 for the third
quarter of last year, a decrease of 21.1%. The Company's net average selling
price per dozen is the average selling price for all sizes and grades of shell
eggs, including non-graded egg sales, breaking stock and undergrades. Although
domestic demand was good, increased egg supply and weak export demand caused
egg prices to decrease during the third quarter of this fiscal year. Feed
sales to outside producers also decreased for the current quarter as a result
of lower tons sold and lower cost of feed ingredients which brought market
prices for feed down.
Net sales for the thirty-nine weeks ended February 26, 2000 were $209.3
million, a decrease of $15.3 million, or 6.8 %, as compared to the same period
last fiscal year. As in the current quarter discussed above, an increase in
dozens sold was offset by a sharp decrease in egg selling prices. Dozens sold
for the current 39 week period were 379.3 million as compared to 321.1 million
for last fiscal year, an increase of 18.1%. The recent acquisitions accounted
for most of the increase. For the current 39 week period, the Company's net
average selling price per dozen was $.512, compared to $.638 per dozen last
fiscal year, a decrease of $.126 per dozen, or 19.7%. As discussed above,
increased egg supply and weak export demand were the primary cause of reduced
egg market prices.
COST OF SALES
Cost of sales for the third quarter ended February 26, 2000 was $72.6
million, an increase of $10.4 million, or 16.8%, as compared to the cost of
sales of $62.2 million for last year's third quarter. The increase is the net
result of an increase in total dozens sold and a decrease in feed cost per
dozen produced. As discussed above, dozens sold for the current quarter
increased 30.7 million dozens, or 28.6% above last year's third quarter. Of
the 30.7 million dozens sold increase, 9.4 million dozens were purchased from
outside egg producers. During weak egg market conditions, such as in the
current fiscal year, the Company is able to purchase outside eggs at more
favorable net prices which mitigates the normally higher cost of purchasing
eggs from outside sources. Feed cost for the third quarter ended February 26,
2000 was $.182 per dozen as compared to last fiscal years' cost per dozen of
$.197, a decrease of 7.6%. Although total dozens sold increased and cost per
dozen sold improved, the sharp drop in egg selling prices resulted in a
decrease in gross profit from 20.2% of net sales for the quarter ended
February 27, 1999, to 8.3% for the quarter ended February 26, 2000.
8
<PAGE>
For the thirty-nine week period ended February 26, 2000, total cost of
sales was $194.4 million, an increase of $8.9 million, or 4.8% as compared to
the cost of sales of $185.5 million for last year. The decrease is the result
of lower feed cost per dozen and an increase in dozens purchased from outside
producers. Feed cost for the current 39 weeks was $.182 per dozen, compared to
$.198 per dozen for last year, a decrease of $.016 per dozen, or 8.0%. Dozens
sold for the current 39 weeks are 58.2 million dozens higher than last year.
Of this increase, 21.1 million dozens were purchased from outside egg
producers. As discussed above, the Company was able to make these purchases at
more favorable net prices. The decreased feed cost and cost of outside egg
purchases were not enough to offset the drop in egg selling prices, and the
net result was a decrease in gross profit from 17.4% of net sales for last
year to 7.1% for the current fiscal year.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Selling, general and administrative expense for the third quarter ended
February 26, 2000 was $10.8 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 23.9%, as
compared to the $8.7 million for last fiscal year's third quarter. The
increase is primarily due to the increased dozens sold from the acquisitions
mentioned above. Dozens of eggs sold for the current quarter increased 28%
above the same period last year. The increase of $2.1 million was evenly split
between administrative and delivery expenses. The increases in administrative
expenses were primarily in payroll and related overhead, and in consulting and
professional fees. All costs of delivery increased in relationship to the
increased sales volume. As a percent of net sales, selling, general and
administrative expense increased from 11.2% for fiscal 1999 to 13.6% for the
current third quarter.
For the thirty-nine weeks ended February 26, 2000, selling, general and
administrative expense was $29.5 million, an increase of $2.6 million, or
9.5%, as compared to $26.9 million for the same period last fiscal year. The
increase is related to the 18.1% increase in dozens sold from the acquisitions
mentioned above. On a dozens sold basis, selling, general and administrative
expense have decreased $.006, or 7.4%, per dozen for the current fiscal
period. As a percent of net sales, selling, general and administrative expense
increased from 12.0% for last year to 14.0% for the current year.
OPERATING INCOME
As the result of the above, an operating loss of $4.2 million was
incurred for the third quarter ended February 26, 2000, as compared to an
operating income of $7.0 million for last fiscal year's comparable quarter. As
a percent of sales, the current fiscal 2000 quarter had a 5.3% operating loss,
compared to a 9.0% operating income for last year.
For the thirty-nine weeks ended February 26, 2000, an operating loss of
$14.5 million was incurred, compared to a $12.2 million operating income for
last fiscal year. As a percent of net sales, the current fiscal period had a
6.9% operating loss, compared to a 5.4% operating income for last year.
OTHER EXPENSE
Other expense for the third quarter ended February 26, 2000 was $ 2.0
million, an increase of $1.4 million, as compared to the third quarter last
fiscal year. For the current quarter, net interest expense increased $1.1
million and other income decreased $229,000 from last year. Net interest
expense increased as the result of increased long-term borrowing and a
decrease in interest income due to lower cash equivalent investments. Other
income decreased due to lower earnings from equity investments. As a percent
of net sales, other expense was 2.6% for the current fiscal third quarter,
compared to .9% last year.
For the thirty-nine weeks ended February 26, 2000, other expense was
$4.5 million, an increase of $2.2 million, as compared to other expense of
$2.3 million for last year. For the current period, net interest expense
increased $2.3 million and other income increased $60,000. The increase in
interest resulted from the same activities as mentioned above in the current
quarter. As a percent of net sales, other expense was 2.2% for the current
fiscal period, as compared to 1.0% for last year.

<PAGE>
INCOME TAXES
As a result of the above, the Company's pre-tax loss was $6.3 million
for the quarter ended February 26, 2000, compared to pre-tax income of $6.3
million for last year's quarter. For the current quarter, an income tax
benefit of $2.3 million was recorded with an effective tax rate of 36.1%, as
compared to an income tax expense of $2.4 million with an effective rate of
37.2% for last year's comparable quarter.
For the thirty-nine week period ended February 26, 2000, the Company's
pre-tax loss was $19.0 million, compared to pre-tax income of $9.8 million for
last year. For the current thirty-nine week period, an income tax benefit of
$7.0 million was recorded with an effective tax rate of 36.5%, as compared to
an income tax expense of $3.7 million with an effective rate of 37.6% for last
year's comparable period.
NET INCOME (LOSS)
Net loss for the third quarter ended February 26, 2000 was $4.0 million,
or $.32 per basic share, compared to net income of $4.0 million, or $.31 per
basic share for last fiscal year's third quarter.
For the thirty-nine week period ended February 26, 2000, net loss was
$12.1 million, or $.98 per basic share, compared to last fiscal year's net
income of $6.1 million, or $.47 per basic share.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
The Company's working capital at February 26, 2000 was $30.3 million,
compared to $48.5 million at May 29, 1999. The Company's need for working
capital generally is highest in the first and last fiscal quarters ending in
August and May, respectively, when egg prices are normally at seasonal lows.
Seasonal borrowing needs frequently are higher during these periods than
during other fiscal periods. The Company had $34 million available for use
under its line of credit with three banks at February 26, 2000. The Company's
long-term debt at that date, including current maturities and capitalized
lease obligations, totaled $121.1 million.
Substantially all trade receivables collateralize the Company's line of
credit, and property, plant and equipment collateralize the Company's
long-term debt. The Company is required by certain provisions of these loan
agreements to (1) maintain minimum levels of working capital and net worth;
(2) limit dividends, capital expenditures, lease obligations and additional
long-term borrowings; and (3) maintain various current, cash-flow, and
interest coverage ratios, among other restrictions. For the current quarter,
the Company did not meet its interest coverage ratio and tangible net worth
requirements pertaining to three long-term note payable agreements totaling
$51 million. It also did not meet its funded debt ratio requirement pertaining
to one of these long-term note payable agreements and its $35 million line of
credit. The Company does not anticipate meeting these requirements in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. It has received a waiver of these requirements
for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2000 and anticipates amending the
agreements to ensure compliance with these requirements in fiscal 2001. Under
certain of the loan agreements, the lenders have the option to require the
prepayment of any outstanding borrowings in the event of a change in the
control of the company.
For the thirty-nine weeks ended February 26, 2000, $10.1 million in net
cash was used in operating activities. This compares to $19.4 million in net
cash that was provided by operating activities for the comparable period last
fiscal year. In the current thirty-nine week period, $4.5 million was used for
purchases of property, plant and equipment, $12.7 million used for
construction projects, and $36.2 million used in acquisition of a shell egg
operation. Approximately $1.0 million was used for purchase of common stock,
and $456,000 was used for payment of dividends on the common stock. The
Company, as a 50% member, invested $1.2 million, and loaned $1.5 million in
the construction of a joint venture egg operation in Utah, Delta Egg Farm,
LLC. The Company received $1.0 million from borrowings under its line of
credit and long-term borrowings of $40.3 million. Principal payments of $3.2
million were made on long-term debt. The net result was a decrease in cash of
$28.7 million.
In September 1999, the Company obtained additional borrowings of $16.0
million, received a commitment for an additional $15.0 million over the next
two years for construction purposes, and revised terms for approximately $9.3
million in existing long-term debt. The additional borrowings of $16.0 million
has an average life of approximately 10.6 years and an interest rate of 8.26%.

The revised terms for the $9.3 million debt will initiate in December 2003 and
include a 15-year amortization. The debt is secured by certain assets located
in Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee.
In February 2000, the Company obtained a $14.0 million note payable with
a 10-year amortization period and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%
maturing in 2000. The note payable is secured by certain assets acquired from
Smith Farms.
For the comparable period last fiscal year, $3.1 million was used for
purchases of property, plant, and equipment, and $6.6 million used in
construction projects. The Company invested $1.5 million in the Delta Egg Farm
joint venture egg operations in Utah. Net cash of $4.4 million was received
from sales of property, plant, and equipment, and from notes receivable.
Additional long-term borrowings of $6.4 million were received and repayments
of $3.8 million were made. Approximately $1.5 million was used in payment of
stock dividends and purchases of treasury stock. The net result was an
increase in cash of $13.7 million
At February 26, 2000, the Company had expended, since the start of the
project, approximately $13.5 million for construction of new shell egg
production, processing and feed mill facilities in Waelder, Texas. The
estimated cost of construction is approximately $18.7 million with anticipated
borrowings in fiscal 2000 of approximately $10.4 million from an insurance
company.
The Company has $2.9 million of deferred tax liability due to a
subsidiary's change from a cash basis to an accrual basis taxpayer on May 29,
1988. The TAXPAYER RELIEF ACT OF 1997 provides that the taxes on the cash
basis temporary differences as of that date are generally payable over 20
years beginning in fiscal 1999, or in full in the first fiscal year in which
there is a change in ownership control. Payment of the $2.9 million deferred
tax liability will reduce the Company's cash, but would not impact the
Company's statement of operations or reduce stockholder's equity, as these
taxes have been accrued and are reflected on the Company's balance sheet.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS. The foregoing statements contain
forward-looking statements, which involve risks, and uncertainties and the
Company's actual experience may differ materially from that discussed above.
Factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to,
those discussed in "Factors Affecting Future Performance" below, as well as
future events that have the effect of reducing the Company's available cash
balances, such as unanticipated operating losses or capital expenditures
related to possible future acquisitions. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect management's
analysis only as the date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation to update
forward-looking statements. See also the Company's reports to be filed from

Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE PERFORMANCE. The Company's future operating
results may be affected by various trends and factors beyond the Company's
control. These include adverse changes in shell egg prices and in the grain
markets. Accordingly, past trends should not be used to anticipate future
results and trends. Further, the Company's prior performance should not be
presumed to be an accurate indication of future performance.
