Notes to Financial Statements
1. The financial statements for the thirteen week periods ended November 2,
1996 and October 28, 1995, are unaudited and reflect all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position
and operating results for the interim periods. The financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto, together with Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, contained in the Company's Annual
Report to Shareholders incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 3, 1996. The results
of operations for the thirteen week period ended November 2, 1996, are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year ending
August 2, 1997.
2. The accounting policies followed by the Company for the unaudited interim
periods contained herein, are substantially the same as outlined in the
Company's Annual Report to Shareholders for the fiscal year ended August 3,
1996, which should be read in conjunction with this quarterly report.
3. In fiscal 1996 the Company changed its method of accounting for inventories
to include the costs of certain buying, warehousing, and transportation
costs. The Company believes this refinement provides a better measurement of
operations by more closely matching revenues with expenses. At the beginning
of fiscal 1996 the Company restated its inventory to include $527,040 of
such costs. This amount, less the tax effect of $216,613, is reported as a
change in accounting principle

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THIRTEEN WEEK PERIODS ENDED NOVEMBER 2, 1996 AND OCTOBER 28, 1995
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
SALES. Sales were $10,987,481 for the thirteen week period ended November 2,
1996 compared to sales of $12,117,969 for the thirteen week period ended October
28, 1995, a decrease of $1,130,488 or 9.3%. The Company closed five stores in
prior periods which have resulted in a net decrease in sales of $789,458 for the
thirteen week period ended November 2, 1996. Additionally, the decrease was due
to a decrease in comparative sales for stores open in both periods of $341,030
or 3.0%. The company attributes this decrease to increased competition in mature
markets.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales for the thirteen weeks ended November 2, 1996,
was 56.7% of sales compared to 59.2% for the thirteen week period ended October
28, 1995. The Company incurred substantially higher markdowns in the year
earlier period which was related to merchandise clearance sales in the month of
October.
STORE OPERATING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL EXPENSES. Store operating,
administrative and general expenses for the thirteen week period ended November
2, 1996, reduced to $4,961,879 compared to $5,218,873 in the same period of the
prior year. The reduction in operating expenses is related to five fewer stores
in the current period, compared to the same period of the prior year.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the thirteen week periods ended
November 2, 1996 and October 28, 1995 was $324,026 and $350,652 respectively.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. No income tax benefit was recognized for the quarter ended
November 2, 1996 versus a tax benefit of $262,882 which was recorded for the
quarter ended October 28, 1995. At fiscal year end August 3, 1996 the Company
established a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets which related
primarily to operating loss carry forwards generated in fiscal 1994 through
1996. Accordingly the Company continues to record a tax valuation allowance
against the tax benefit that may be realized from the operating loss generated
in the quarter ended November 2, 1996.
CUMULATIVE EFFECT OF ACCOUNTING CHANGE. In fiscal 1996 the Company changed its
method of accounting for inventories to include the costs of certain buying,
warehousing, and transportation costs. At the beginning of fiscal 1996 the
Company restated its inventory to include $527,040 of such costs. The amount,
less the tax effect of $216,613 is reported as a change in accounting principle
totaling $310,427.
QUARTERLY RESULTS. Loss before income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting
change was reduced to $529,973 versus $620,465 for the same period in the prior
year. Reduced markdowns and reduced expenses were the primary contributing
factors. Net loss for the thirteen week period ended November 2, 1996, was
$529,973 compared to a net loss of $47,156 in the same period of the prior
year. The increase in net loss is attributable to no tax benefit recorded in the
current period and the effect of the change in accounting for inventories from
the prior year. The specialty domestics segment of the retail industry has seen
increased competition with corresponding pressure on sales and margins.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. At November 2, 1996, working capital was
- -------------------------------
$10,788,695 compared to $11,225,777 at the beginning of the fiscal year. Cash
generated by operations was $101,955, which was offset by debt reduction of
$174,125 and expenditures on capital improvements of $231,316. Management
believes that cash from operations, coupled with its credit resources and line
of credit will be sufficient to meet the Company's operational and capital needs
for the remainder of the fiscal year ending August 2, 1997.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
- --------------------------
The preceding "Business" and Management's Discussion and Analysis contain
various "forward looking statements" within the meaning of section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's expectations or beliefs
concerning future events, including the following: the ability of the Company
to obtain positive cash flow from its current portfolio of stores; the ability
of the Company to maintain its credit facilities; and sufficiency of the
Company's working capital, bank loan agreement and cash flow from operating
activities for the Company's future operating and capital requirements. The
Company cautions that these statements are further qualified by important
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the
forward looking statements, including, without limitations, the following:
decline in demand for merchandise offered by the Company; the ability of the
Company to gauge the fashion tastes of its customers and provide merchandise to
satisfy customer demand; the ability of the Company to hire and train employees;
the possible unavailability of merchandise from the Company's vendors and
private label suppliers; the effect of economic conditions in the Company's
markets, the effect of severe weather or natural disaster; and the effect of
competitive pressures from other retailers. Results actually achieved thus may
differ materially from expected results in these statements.
