                              Morgan's Foods, Inc.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
               QUARTERS ENDED AUGUST 18, 1996 AND AUGUST 13, 1995


Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

         The interim consolidated financial statements of Morgan's Foods, Inc.
have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of Company Management, all
adjustments have been included. Unless otherwise disclosed, all adjustments
consist only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of
results of operations for the interim periods. These unaudited financial
statements have been prepared using the same accounting principles that were
used in preparation of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year
ended March 3, 1996. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to
conform with the current period presentation.

Note 2.  Disposition of Assets

         On May 5, 1995 Morgan's Restaurants of Pennsylvania, Inc., and Morgan's
Restaurants of New Jersey, Inc., both wholly owned subsidiaries of Morgan's
Foods, Inc., completed the sale to Kazi Foods of New Jersey, Inc. of the assets
of twenty-four KFC restaurants located in Central Pennsylvania and New Jersey.
Kazi acquired all of the assets, properties and leases of the twenty-four KFC
restaurants for a cash purchase price of $10,625,000. The Company used the
proceeds primarily to pay down $9,750,000 of floating rate bank debt in advance
of scheduled maturities. The Company received net cash proceeds from the sale of
$294,000, after repayment of debt, payment of various closing costs and buyouts
of previously leased equipment at certain retained restaurants. The Company
recorded a gain on the sale of the restaurants of $1,681,000 which represents
the excess of the sale price and lease liabilities assigned to the buyer, net of
estimated expenses related to the transaction, over the carrying value of the
assets sold. The twenty-four KFC restaurants which were sold had revenues prior
to the sale of $3,106,000 in the quarter ended May 21, 1995.

Note 3.  Closing of Restaurants

         During the second quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company closed two
unprofitable KFC restaurants in the St. Louis market. One of the restaurants was
at the end of the lease term and was closed. The second restaurant was closed
and the Company recognized a loss of $95,000 on the sale of the leasehold
interest to an independent restaurant operator for $21,000.

Note 4.  Change in stated value of common shares

         On June 28, 1996 the Board of Directors of the Company approved a
change in the stated value of the Company's common shares from $1.00 per share
to $.01 per share.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations.

         DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS. Morgan's Foods, Inc. ("the Company") operates
through wholly-owned subsidiaries Kentucky Fried Chicken ("KFC") restaurants
under franchises from KFC Corporation and has rights to operate, as a
franchisee, East Side Mario's restaurants in the Cleveland/Akron and Columbus,
Ohio areas. As of September 23, 1996, the Company operates 38 KFC restaurants
and six East Side Mario's restaurants. The Company's fiscal year is a 52 - 53
week year ending on the Sunday nearest the last day of February.

         REVENUES. Revenues for the quarter ended August 18, 1996 were
$9,554,000 compared to $9,904,000 for the quarter ended August 13, 1995. The
decrease of $350,000 was due to two offsetting factors. The first was the
increase of $341,000 in KFC revenue in the quarter ended August 18, 1996
compared to the same quarter a year earlier. Secondly, sales at the East Side
Mario's restaurants declined by $691,000 during the same time periods. These
changes represent a 9% comparable restaurant sales increase in the KFC
restaurants and a 22% comparable restaurant sales decrease in the East Side
Mario's. The KFC restaurants had comparable restaurant sales increases due to
new products such as the Chunky Chicken Pot Pie and Tender Roast Chicken as well
as more effective advertising. The East Side Mario's restaurants, the oldest of
which opened three and one-half years ago, have exhibited significant declines
from their opening sales levels due to increased competition.

         For the twenty-four weeks ended August 18, 1996 revenue was $18,559,000
compared to $21,520,000 or a decrease of $2,961,000. Three factors combined to
produce this result. First, the period ended August 13, 1995 included revenues
of $3,106,000 attributable to the 24 KFC restaurants which were sold on May 5,
1995. Further, KFC revenues increased $1,128,000 in the restaurants the Company
continued to operate while revenues in the East Side Mario's declined $983,000
in the twenty-four weeks ended August 18, 1996 compared to the year earlier
period.

         COSTS OF SALES - FOOD, PAPER AND BEVERAGES. Food, paper and beverage
costs for the quarter ended August 18, 1996 as a percentage of revenue were
32.0% compared to 31.8% in the prior year. These results were achieved through
improved efficiency at the KFC restaurants, offset by higher chicken costs in
the current quarter than in the same quarter a year earlier. Food, paper and
beverage costs for the twenty-four weeks ended August 18, 1996 decreased
slightly as a percentage of sales to 31.7% compared to 32.0% in the same period
of the prior year. This was the result of improved efficiency and favorable menu
mix in the KFC restaurants partially offset by higher chicken costs.

         COST OF SALES - LABOR AND BENEFITS. Labor and benefits increased as a
percentage of revenue for the quarter ended August 18, 1996 to 26.0% compared to
25.7% one year ago. The increase is primarily due to reduced labor efficiency in
the East Side Mario's restaurants caused by lower sales levels. For the 24 weeks
ended August 18, 1996 labor and benefits decreased as a percentage of revenue to
25.9% from 26.3% in the same period a year earlier. This was caused by improved
labor efficiency and lower workers' compensation costs in the KFC restaurants
partially offset by increased labor costs in the East Side Mario's restaurants.

         RESTAURANT OPERATING EXPENSES. Restaurant operating expenses decreased
as a percentage of revenue from 28.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 1996 to
26.8% in fiscal 1997. The decrease was primarily caused by lower advertising
costs in the KFC restaurants, and in the East Side Mario's restaurants lower
royalties and favorable adjustments to rent accruals. For the 24 weeks ended
August 18, 1996, restaurant operating expenses were 28.3% of revenue,
essentially unchanged from 28.4% in the year earlier period.

         DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization for the
quarter ended August 18, 1996 increased to $451,000 from $407,000 in the same
quarter a year earlier due to capital additions during the current fiscal year.
Depreciation and amortization for the year to date fiscal 1997 declined to
$904,000 from $976,000 in fiscal 1996 due to the sale of the 24 KFC restaurants
on May 5, 1995, partially offset by capital additions during fiscal 1997.

         GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative
expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 1997 of $622,000 were $27,000 or 4.2%
below the first quarter of fiscal 1996. The decrease is primarily due to the
consolidation of the management of the East Side Mario's and KFC restaurants
which resulted in the elimination of salary and related expenses of the Director
of Operations for the East Side Mario's restaurants. General and administrative
expenses for the 24 weeks ended August 18, 1996 were $1,259,000 compared to
$1,373,000 in the 24 weeks ended August 13, 1995. The decrease is due to the
elimination of administrative expenses related to operation of the 24 KFC
restaurants that were sold late in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 as well as
the administrative consolidation mentioned above.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income in the quarter ended August 18, 1996
was essentially unchanged at $282,000 compared to $285,000 for the quarter ended
August 13, 1995. Results for the current quarter however contain a charge of
$95,000 for the closing of two unprofitable KFC restaurants. Operating income
for the current quarter would have been $377,000 without the charge. Operating
income for the KFC restaurants in the current quarter was greater than the prior
year due to increased sales and improved operating efficiency. Operating income
of the East Side Mario's in the second quarter of fiscal 1997 was significantly
below the same period a year earlier primarily due to high fixed occupancy costs
and lower revenues. Operating income for the 24 weeks ended August 18, 1996 was
$360,000, net of the $95,000 charge described above, compared to operating
income of $511,000 in the comparable period a year earlier. During the 24 weeks
ended August 18, 1996 operating income for the KFC restaurants increased from
the same period a year earlier despite the sale of 24 KFC restaurants late in
the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Operating income of the East Side Mario's
restaurants declined significantly in the 24 weeks ended August 18, 1996
compared to the same period a year earlier for the reasons cited above.

         INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense on bank debt increased to $144,000
in the quarter ended August 18, 1996 from $113,000 in the quarter ended August
13, 1995 due to additional bank debt for the acquisition of a previously leased
KFC restaurant and rebuilding of another KFC restaurant. Interest expense on
capitalized leases increased slightly to $129,000 from $102,000 for the same
periods due to the capitalized leases on the sixth East Side Mario's restaurant.
Interest expense on bank debt for the 24 weeks ended August 18, 1996 declined to
$277,000 from $411,000 in the same period a year earlier due to the reduction of
bank debt balances related to the sale of 24 KFC restaurants late in the first
quarter of fiscal 1996. Interest expense on capitalized leases increased to
$258,000 in fiscal 1997 from $244,000 in fiscal 1996 due to the additional
capitalized leases mentioned above which were partially offset by the sale of
the 24 KFC restaurants, of which some properties were held under capitalized
leases.

         LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. Cash flow activity for the first 24
weeks of fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996 is presented in the Consolidated Statements
of Cash Flows. Cash provided by operating activities was $942,000 in fiscal 1997
and the Company purchased property and equipment of $987,000. The Company paid
scheduled long-term bank and capitalized lease debt of $276,000 in fiscal 1997
and received property and equipment financing of $925,000 to purchase and
refurbish a previously leased KFC restaurant in Granite City, Illinois and
rebuild a KFC restaurant in New Kensington, Pennsylvania.

         On June 21, 1996 the Company entered into a letter of intent to
purchase two existing KFC restaurants located in Western Pennsylvania from
another KFC franchisee. Under the terms of the letter of intent, the Company
agreed to pay cash for the restaurants but believes that financing for the
purchase is available. The definitive purchase agreement is currently being
negotiated and the transaction is expected to close during the Company's fiscal
third quarter. In addition, the Company is finalizing a lease of a site in
Western Pennsylvania on which it intends to build a new KFC restaurant.

         The KFC operations of the Company have historically provided sufficient
cash flow to service the Company's debt, refurbish and upgrade KFC restaurant
properties and cover administrative overhead. Management believes that operating
cash flow will provide sufficient capital to continue to operate and maintain
the KFC and East Side Mario's restaurants, service the Company's debt and
support required corporate expenses. In addition to the Company's operating cash
flow, management believes that additional financing, including long term leases
of build-to-suit restaurants and development lines of credit can be obtained for
use in the acquisition of new and refurbishment of existing KFC properties.
