MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Results of Operations
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994 VERSUS THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1993:
Sales for the three months ended June 30, 1994 increased $8.4 million, or
20.2%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 1993. The Company
operated an average of 201 Burger King restaurants for the second quarter of
1994 as compared to an average of 177 for the second quarter of 1993. Average
restaurant unit sales increased 6.0% in the second quarter of 1994 as compared
to 1993. Sales at comparable restaurants, the 172 restaurants operating for the
entirety of the compared periods, increased $1.7 million, or 4.1%. Net
restaurant selling prices decreased approximately 2.5% resulting from a 10.4 %
reduction in menu prices offset by a 7.9% increase from fewer discount
promotions in 1994.
Cost of sales (food and paper costs) for the three months ended June 30,
1994 increased in dollars due to higher sales. Cost of sales as a percentage
of sales decreased 0.3% from 1993 to 1994 as a result of lower commodity costs,
especially beef, partially offset by the increase from the effect of lower net
restaurant selling prices.
Restaurant wages and related expenses decreased from 29.7% of sales to
28.8% of sales when comparing the three months ended June 30, 1993 to 1994.
Productive labor efficiencies and the effect of higher sales on the fixed
componet of restaurant wages more than offset the effects of lower restaurant
selling prices and increased wage rates.
Other restaurant operating expenses increased by $1.9 million and by 0.5%
as a percentage of sales for 1994 compared to 1993. The increase in dollars was
caused primarily by expenses associated with the operation of the additional
restaurants during the most recent three months when compared to the prior
year's three months.
Increased depreciation and amortization due to the additional restaurants
in operation during the second quarter of 1994 was more than offset by the
reduction in depreciation and amortization caused by assets becoming fully
depreciated.
An increase in advertising payments to Burger King Corporation of $0.3
million (based on sales levels) was partially offset by decreases in other forms
of promotional activities ($0.1 million) when comparing the three months ended
June 30, 1994 to the three months ended June 30, 1993. The increase in
administrative expenses of $0.4 million when comparing 1994 to 1993 was
principally caused by an increase in anticipated expenses related to the
improved operations.
An increase in average interest rates and an increase in average loan
balances outstanding caused interest expense to increase $0.8 million for the
three months ended June 30, 1994 compared to 1993.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONT')
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1994 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30 1993:
Sales for the six months ended June 30, 1994 increased $14.8 million, or 18.9%,
as compared to the six months ended June 30, 1993. The Company operated an
average of 198 Burger King restaurants for the first six months of 1994 as
compared to an average of 177 for the first six months of 1993. Average
restaurant unit sales increased 6.3% in the first six months of 1994 as compared
to 1993. Sales at comparable restaurants, the 172 restaurants operating for the
entirety of the compared periods, increased $2.9 million, or 3.8%. Net
restaurant selling prices decreased approximately 5.2% resulting from a 10.5%
reduction in menu prices offset by a 5.3% increase from fewer discount
promotions in 1994.
Cost of sales (food and paper costs) for the six months ended June 30, 1994
increased in dollars due to higher sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of
sales increased 0.8% from 1993 to 1994 as a result of the effect of lower net
restaurant selling prices, partially offset by decreases in various commodity
costs, especially beef.
Restaurant wages and related expenses decreased from 31.2% of sales to 30.1% of
sales when comparing the six months ended June 30, 1993 to 1994. Productive
labor efficiencies and the effect of higher sales on the fixed componet of
restaurant wages more than offset the effects of lower restaurant selling prices
and increased wage rates.
Other restaurant operating expenses increased by $3.5 million and by 0.5% as a
percentage of sales for 1994 compared to 1993. The increase in dollars was
caused primarily by expenses associated with the operation of the additional
restaurants during the most recent six months when compared to the prior year's
six months.
Increased depreciation and amortization due to the additional restaurants in
operation during the first six months of 1994 was more than offset by the
reduction in depreciation and amortization caused by assets becoming fully
depreciated.
An increase in advertising payments to Burger King Corporation of $0.6 million
(based on sales levels) was partially offset by decreases in other forms of
promotional activities ($0.1 million) when comparing the six months ended June
30, 1994 to the six months ended June 30, 1993. The increase in administrative
expenses of $0.4 million when comparing 1994 to 1993 was principally caused by
an increase in anticipated expenses related to the improved operations.
An increase in average interest rates and an increase in average loan balances
outstanding caused interest expense to increase $1.4 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 compared to 1993.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONT'D)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The operating activities of the Company provided $4.1 million of cash for
the six months ended June 30, 1994. Capital spending for property, equipment
and franchise rights was $4.5 million, which included the acquisition of three
restauants in North Carolina, three restaurants in New York and the construction
of one new restaurant during the first six months of 1994. Dividends of $3.1
million were paid to Carrols Holdings Corp (the Company's parent) for the
payment by Holdings of $.4 million of regular quarterly preferred stock
dividends and $2.7 million for the completion of the redemption and retirement
of common stock and warrants that were tendered under an offer made in October
1993 by Holdings to purchase a limited amount of its common stock and common
stock equivalents. $4.5 million was borrowed under the Company's Senior Secured
Credit Facility during the six months ended June 30, 1994.
At June 30, 1994, the Company had $15.5 million available under its Senior
Secured Credit Facility, after reserving $2.5 million for a letter of credit
guaranteed by the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The Company believes that
future cash flow from operations together with funds available under the Senior
Secured Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet all interest and principal
payments under its indebtedness, fund the maintenance of property and equipment,
fund restaurant remodeling required under the Company's franchise agreements,
and meet required payments in respect of Holding's preferred stock (subject to
the terms of the Senior Note Indenture and the Senior Secured Credit Facility)
with the balance, to the extent available, used to provide funds for future
acquisitions.
Inflation
While inflation can have a significant impact on food, paper, labor and
other operating costs, the Company has historically been able to minimize the
effect of inflation through periodic price increases, and believes it will be
able to offset future inflation with price increases, if necessary.
