SLOAN'S SUPERMARKETS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Business - The Company owns and operates fourteen supermarkets and one health
and beauty aids store (the "Supermarkets") under the "Sloan's" name in New York
City (thirteen are located in Manhattan and two are located in Brooklyn). Eleven
Supermarkets were acquired in March 1993 from CKMR Corporation ("CKMR"),a
privately-held corporation unaffiliated with the Company. In August 1995, the
Company sold the leasehold of one of its supermarkets; in October 1995, the
Company purchased three other Supermarkets from Supermarket Acquisition
Corp.("SAC"), a company owned and controlled by the Company's Chairman of the
Board and Chief Executive Officer, John Catsimatidis. In February 1996, the
Company opened one new Supermarket and on March 7, 1996, the Company opened a
health and beauty aids store. The Company leases all of its Supermarket
locations.
Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All material
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Quarter End - The Company operates using the conventional retail 52/53 week
fiscal year. The fiscal quarter ends on the Sunday closest to the end of the
quarter.
Inventory - Store inventories are valued principally at the lower of cost or
market with cost determined under the retail first in, first out (FIFO) method.
Property and Equipment - Depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment is
computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets.
Leases - The Company charges the cost of noncancelable operating lease payments
and beneficial leaseholds to operations on a straight-line basis over the lives
of the leases.
Provision for income taxes - Income taxes reflect Federal and State alternative
minimum tax only, as all regular income taxes have been offset by utilization of
the Company's net operating loss carry forward.

Chairman of the Board, supervises all operations of the Company under a
management agreement. The agreement requires the Company to pay to Red Apple one

respectively.

SLOAN'S SUPERMARKETS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (Continued)
Red Apple also operates 34 supermarkets in the New York metropolitan area under
the Sloan's, Gristede's and Pioneer banners. The Company's advertising program
is combined with all of these Red Apple entities. Consistent with this shared
advertising program the Company is allocated advertising income and expense by
Red Apple based on the Company's portion of sales to total Red Apple sales.
Certain direct store advertising expense is charged on a store by store basis.
The Company purchases produce and certain sundry items from a subsidiary of Red
Apple at prices consistent with those charged to other Red Apple entities as
well as non-affiliated customers. Purchases for the 13 weeks ended June 1, 1997
and June 2, 1996 were $1,133,614 and $1,283,769 respectively.
Legal fees incurred by the Company to a law firm, of which a director of the
Company is a member, were $64,944 and $36,000 for the 13 weeks ended June 1,
1997 and June 2, 1996, respectively.
PART I
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of
Operations For the 13 weeks ended
June 1, 1997 and June 2, 1996
FINANCIAL CONDITION
The Company's working capital deficiency decreased by approximately
$62,400 during the 13 weeks ended June 1, 1997.
Long term debt decreased by $300,000 reflecting scheduled principal
payments during the period.

SLOAN'S SUPERMARKETS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company believes that it will be able to satisfy its bank loan
agreement and supermarket operating requirements from internally generated
funds. In addition, the Company has in place a $1 million dollar revolving
credit facility to provide short term working capital. As of June 1, 1997 the
revolving credit facility was fully utilized.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income was $102,117 for the 13 weeks ended June 2, 1997 as compared
to $330,253 for the 13 weeks ended June 1, 1996.
Sales were $12,254,700 in the 1997 period compared to $13,538,008 for
the same period in 1996. The decline in sales was primarily due to a delay in
the commencement of the Company's remodeling program, which was originally
scheduled to start earlier this year. In addition, deflationary pressures in
food prices also contributed to the decrease in sales in the 1997 period as
compared to the 1996 period.
The Company has embarked on a substantial remodeling program under
which 4 stores will be extensively remodeled and refixtured during the next 8
months. The remodels will also result in the expansion of the sales areas in
these stores. It is anticipated that we will experience appreciable sales
increases in the remodeled stores based on prior history.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 38.75% for the 13 weeks ended
June 1, 1997 compared to 40.07% for the 13 weeks ended June 2, 1996. The
decrease in gross profit margin was mainly due to a curtailment of our long-term
forward buying program in the 1997 period as compared to the 1996 period, due to
the temporary lack of suitable available product. It is anticipated that forward
buying opportunities will once again be available in future periods.
Store operating, general and administrative expenses were $4,238,262 or
34.59% of sales in 1997 compared with $4,655,726 or 34.39% of sales in 1996.
Operating expenses as a percentage of sales increased in the 1997 period due to
the fact that fixed costs, including occupancy costs, utility costs and
depreciation and amortization expenses remained constant notwithstanding the
decrease in sales.
Non-store operating expenses were $65,046 for the 13 weeks ended June
1, 1997 as compared with $88,218 for the same period in 1996, mainly as a result
of lower legal expenses. The decrease in legal expenses was a result of the
Company's reduced need during the quarter for the services of outside legal
counsel in connection with litigation, real estate and general corporate
matters.

SLOAN'S SUPERMARKETS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Other income decreased during the 13 weeks ended June 1, 1997 by
$10,049 as compared with the 13 weeks ended June 2, 1996. The decline was
primarily due to a decrease in delivery income.
