---------------------
In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements include all adjustments necessary, which are considered normal
and recurring to present fairly the financial position of the Company at
September 30, 2000(Fiscal 2000) and January 1, 2000 (Fiscal 1999), and the
results of operations for the thirty-nine and thirteen week periods ended
September 30, 2000 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the
thirty-nine weeks then ended.
Certain financial information which is normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, but which is not required for interim reporting purposes, has
been condensed or omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K

Fiscal 1999 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the

no adjustments for foreign currency translation, unrealized gains(losses)on
investments or deferred compensation expense incurred in Fiscal 2000 or

During July 1999, the Company reached an agreement with its bank to
extend the maturity of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility until January

available until expiration at January 31, 2003. The amounts outstanding
thereunder bear interest at a maximum per annum rate up to the bank's prime
rate. The agreement contains selected financial and other covenants
including covenants to maintain a minimum current ratio, a maximum debt to
equity ratio, a maximum capital expenditure covenant and a minimum fixed
charge coverage ratio. The amended agreement now permits the payment of
dividends on the Company's common stock. Effective upon the occurrence of
an Event of Default under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company grants
to the bank a security interest in the Company's inventory and certain
receivables.

7. CONTINGENCIES

financial position and results of operations.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
----------------------------------------------
Except for the historical information and current statements contained in
this Form 10-Q, certain matters discussed herein, including, without
limitation, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" are forward looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including, without limitation, the effect of economic and market
conditions and competition, the ability to open new stores and expand into new
markets, and risks relating to foreign importing operations, which would cause
actual results to differ materially.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
The Company's primary need for capital is to finance new store merchandise
inventories, as well as the construction of new stores and the renovation of
existing stores. During the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2000, the
Company used cash ($8,891,000), a reduction in receivables ($454,000), and cash
flow from non-cash depreciation expenses ($3,580,000) to repay accounts payable
($1,382,000), to fund inventory purchases ($5,039,000), to fund the Company's
store expansion and remodeling program ($3,903,000), as well as to pay accrued
liabilities ($1,360,000) and pay income tax payments ($1,305,000).
9
<PAGE>
The Company plans to open approximately sixteen new stores during 2000.
The Company has opened seven new Lillie Rubin stores in Fiscal 2000, and
expects to open one additional store during the fourth quarter of 2000. The
Company also opened five new Cache stores in Fiscal 2000, and expects to open
approximately three additional Cache stores during the fourth quarter of Fiscal
2000. After deducting construction allowances paid to the Company by its
landlords, the Company has spent approximately $3,903,000 through September 30,
2000 and expects to spend approximately $1,500,000 additional dollars during
the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2000, for both new store and existing store
construction and remodeling. The Company closed two stores in the first half of
Fiscal 2000, the closures had no material impact on earnings.
Management believes that the Company's internally generated cash flows
will be sufficient to meet anticipated requirements for operations and planned
expansion during Fiscal 2000.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Certain financial data concerning the Company's results of operations for
the thirty-nine and thirteen week periods ended September 30, 2000 and October
2, 1999, expressed as a percentage of net sales, are as follows:
Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended Thirteen Weeks Ended
----------------------- ---------------------

Cost of sales, including
occupancy and buying expenses 66.4% 65.4% 68.5% 67.8%
Selling, general and
administrative expenses 33.6% 32.5% 36.7% 35.9%
Income (loss) before taxes 0.1% 2.2% (5.1%) (3.7%)
Income tax provision (benefit) 0.0% 0.9% (1.9%) (1.5%)
Net income (loss) 0.1% 1.3% (3.2%) (2.2%)
Sales
-----
Net sales increased $11,936,000 or 10.8% and $3,712,000 or 10.8%
respectively, during the thirty-nine and thirteen week periods ended September
30, 2000, versus the comparable periods in Fiscal 1999. The increases were
primarily due to the greater number of stores open during the Fiscal 2000
period, as well as an increase in comparable store sales during the Fiscal 2000
periods. Comparable store sales increased 2.9% and 4.7%, respectively, for the
thirty-nine and thirteen week periods in Fiscal 2000, as compared to the
comparable periods in Fiscal 1999.

<PAGE>
Costs and expenses
------------------
Cost of sales, including occupancy and buying costs, increased $8,972,000
or 12.4% for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2000, versus the similar
period in Fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales
and the related cost of merchandise for those sales, as well as a $1,807,000
increase in occupancy expenses, primarily due to the additional stores in
operation during the Fiscal 2000 versus Fiscal 1999. As a percentage of sales,
cost of sales, including the occupancy expenses, increased 1.0%, (66.4% versus
65.4%) for the thirty-nine week period ended September 30, 2000, versus the
comparable period in Fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to higher
markdowns taken in Fiscal 2000, as compared to Fiscal 1999.
Cost of sales, including occupancy and buying costs, increased $2,779,000
or 12.0% for the thirteen weeks ended September 30, 2000, versus the similar
Fiscal 1999 period. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales and
the related cost of the merchandise for those sales, and a $541,000 increase in
occupancy, due to the additional stores in operation during Fiscal 2000 versus
Fiscal 1999. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales, including occupancy and
buying expenses, increased 0.7% (68.5% versus 67.8%) for the thirteen weeks
ended September 30, 2000, versus the comparable period in Fiscal 1999. The
increase was primarily due to higher markdowns in dollars, and as a percent of
sales, as compared to the Fiscal 1999 period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
--------------------------------------------
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A") increased $5,318,000
or 14.8% during the thirty-nine week period ended September 30, 2000 versus the
comparable period in Fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to the greater
number of stores open in Fiscal 2000 as compared to Fiscal 1999. The increase
in several expense categories was primarily due to greater payroll and payroll
taxes ($3,107,000), insurance ($441,000), credit card fees ($277,000),
depreciation ($307,000), licenses and taxes ($252,000), and advertising
expense ($308,000). As a percentage of sales, these expenses increased 1.1%
(33.6% versus 32.5%) for the thirty-nine weeks ended September 30, 2000 versus
the similar Fiscal 1999 period. The increase was primarily due to the effect of
higher payroll and payroll taxes, which were primarily driven by the greater
number of stores open during the Fiscal 2000 period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,631,000 or 13.3%
during the thirteen weeks ended September 30, 2000, versus the comparable period
in Fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily due to the greater number of stores
open in Fiscal 2000, as compared to Fiscal 1999. The increase in certain expense
categories was primarily due to greater payroll and payroll taxes
($941,000),insurance ($143,000), licenses and taxes($72,000) and depreciation
($55,000). As a percentage of sales, these expenses increased 0.8% (36.7% versus
35.9%) for the thirteen weeks ended September 30, 2000 versus the similar Fiscal
1999 period. The increase was due primarily to the effect of higher payroll and
payroll taxes, as stated above.
11
<PAGE>
Interest expense
----------------
Interest expense decreased $78,000 and $30,000, respectively, for the
thirty-nine and thirteen week periods ended September 30, 2000, due to the
repayment of the related party notes.
Interest income
---------------
Interest income decreased from $262,000 to $126,000 for the thirty-nine
week period, as well as decreasing from $66,000 to $21,000 for the thirteen
week period. The decreases were primarily due to lower average cash balances
after the repayment of related party notes.
Income taxes
------------
The Company's effective tax rate is approximately 36.5% for Fiscal 2000,
as compared to 41% in Fiscal 1999.
