ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THIRTEEN WEEK PERIODS ENDED MAY 2, 1998 AND MAY 3, 1997
- -------------------------------------------------------
SALES. Sales were $8,657,360 for the thirteen week period ended May 2, 1998
compared to $9,807,148 for the thirteen week period ended May 3, 1997, a
decrease of 11.7%. Sales for stores open in both periods were $8,277,740 for the
thirteen-week period ended May 2, 1998 and $9,765,492 for the thirteen-week
period ended May 3, 1997. The Company closed one store in prior periods, which
have resulted in a net decrease in sales of $100,733 for the thirteen-week
period, ended May 2, 1998. Beginning in February 1998 the Company began to
experience a tightening of trade credit. Reduced shipments of new product to the
Company have resulted in a deterioration of comparable store sales.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales for the thirteen-week period ended May 2, 1998,
were 61.0% of sales compared to 55.0% for the thirteen-week period ended May 3,
1997. The Company takes physical inventory twice each year and records an
adjustment to the carrying value of inventory based upon the physical count. In
both 1998 and 1997 the Company recorded increases in inventory because the
provision(s) for inventory shrinkage were less than the amount than had been
recorded. In fiscal 1998 inventory results were recorded during the second
quarter. In fiscal 1997 the positive inventory results were recorded in the
third quarter, which was predicated on the timing of when the physical inventory
was taken.
STORE OPERATING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL EXPENSES. Store operating,
administrative and general expenses for the thirteen week period ended May 2,
1998 were $4,621,300 compared to $4,689,277 in the same period of the prior
year.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the thirteen-week periods ended May 2,
1998 and May 3, 1997 was $287,082 and $302,677, respectively.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. No income tax expense (benefit) was recognized for the
quarter ended May 2, 1998 or for the quarter ended May 3, 1997. At fiscal year
end August 2, 1997 the Company established a valuation allowance against
deferred tax assets which related primarily to operating loss carry forwards
generated in fiscal 1994 through 1997. 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 thirty-nine weeks ended May 2, 1998.
QUARTERLY RESULTS. Loss before income taxes was $1,528,953 versus $581,635 for
the same period in the prior year. Net loss for the thirteen-week period ended
May 2, 1998, was $1,528,953 compared to a net loss of $581,635 in the same
period of the prior year. The increase in net loss is attributable to the
reduction in sales in the current period resulting from the aforementioned
reduction in shipments of new product to the Company.

<PAGE>
THIRTY-NINE WEEK PERIODS ENDED MAY 2, 1998 AND MAY 3, 1997
- ----------------------------------------------------------
SALES. Sales were $31,182,542 for the thirty-nine week period ended May 2, 1998
compared to $34,007,680 for the thirty-nine week period ended May 3, 1997, a
decrease 8.3%. Sales for stores open in both periods were $29,822,621 for the
thirty-nine week period ended May 2, 1998 and $33,669,187 for the thirty-nine
week period ended May 3, 1997. The Company closed one store in prior periods,
which have resulted in a net decrease in sales of $337,345 for the thirty-nine
week period, ended May 2, 1998. Beginning in March 1998 the Company began to
experience a tightening of trade credit. Reduced shipments of new product to the
Company have resulted in a deterioration of comparable store sales.
COST OF SALES. Cost of sales for the thirty-nine week period ended May 2, 1998,
was 58.2% of sales compared to 56.3% for the thirty-nine week period ended May
3, 1997. Markdowns and other costs of sales have remained static and, as such,
account for a greater percentage of cost due to a decrease in the amount of
sales.
STORE OPERATING, ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL EXPENSES. Store operating,
administrative and general expenses for the thirty-nine week period ended May 2,
1998, were $13,946,174 compared to $14,728,974 in the same period of the prior
year. Advertising was decreased by $551,314 versus the prior year.
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense for the thirty-nine week periods ended May 2,
1998 and May 3, 1997 was $921,743 and $943,265, respectively.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE. No income tax benefit was recognized for the thirty-nine
weeks ended May 2, 1998 or for the thirty-nine weeks ended May 3, 1997. At
fiscal year end August 2, 1997, the Company established a valuation allowance
against deferred tax assets which related primarily to operating loss carry
forwards generated in fiscal 1994 through 1997. 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 thirty-nine weeks ended May
2, 1998.
THIRTY-NINE WEEK RESULTS. Loss before income taxes was $1,825,986 versus a loss
of $874,416 for the same period in the prior year. Net loss for the thirty-nine
week period ended May 2, 1998, was $1,825,986 compared to a net loss of $874,416
in the same period of the prior year. The increase in net loss is attributable
to the reduction in sales in the current period resulting from aforementioned
reduction in shipments of new product to the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
- --------------------------------
At May 2, 1998, working capital was $6,398,380 compared to $9,652,600 at the
beginning of the fiscal year. Cash generated by operations was $2,423,971, which
was offset by debt reduction of $2,048,642 and expenditures on capital
improvements of $473,190. Beginning in February 1998 merchandise shipments to
the Company constricted due to a tightening of bank and trade credit. From the
beginning of February 1998 to the end on March 1998 merchandise inventory
declined 8.7%. On April 15, 1998 the Company met with its trade creditors to
discuss a forecast of a downturn in business the Company was projecting for the
months of May, June, and July, 1998. The Company asked its trade creditors to
temporarily place all demands for collection on trade credit on hold dated April
15, 1998 and prior, while the Company sought alternative financing and strategic
proposals. On April 15, 1998 the trade creditors formed an Unofficial Creditors
Committee to consult with the Company. The Company asked the trade creditors to
continue the moratorium until July 15, 1998. The Company is currently in
discussions regarding financing and strategic alternatives.
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.
