Part III--Narrative
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Form 10-K and Form 10-KSB,
20-F, 11-K, 10-Q and Form 10-QSB, N-SAR, or the transition report or portion
thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed period.
On May 18, 1999, Loehmann's, Inc. (the "Company") filed a petition for
relief under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States
Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Wilmington, Delaware (the
"Bankruptcy Court"). Since that time the Company has continued to manage and
operate its assets and business pending the confirmation of a reorganization
plan and subject to the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court. On March 17, 2000,
the Company filed a Disclosure Statement and a Plan of Reorganization with the
Bankruptcy Court (the "Plan of Reorganization"). During the last two months, the
Company has also been required to devote significant time and resources to the
preparation, confirmation and implementation of the Plan of Reorganization.
Consequently, as a result of these time pressures, the Company has not been able
to complete and file its Form 10-K by the date required without unreasonable
effort or expense.

15 (d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or section 30 of

required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of
operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal
year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be
included in the subject report or portion thereof?
[X] Yes [ ] No
<PAGE>
If so: attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively
and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made.
The Net loss for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2000 will
be $33.5 million compared to a net loss of $5.1 million for
the fiscal year ended January 30, 1999. The increase in the
net loss is due to reorganization costs of $19.9 million and a
charge of $6.1 million for inventory liquidation at stores
closed as part of the Company's restructuring. The
reorganization costs include charges for asset write-offs at
the closed stores, lease rejection claims and professional
fees.
