NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
QUARTERS ENDED MAY 24, 1998 AND MAY 25, 1997
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 1, 1998.
Note 2. Reverse Stock Split
All share and per share data have been restated to reflect the one for
six reverse stock split which was effective on July 14, 1997.

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 July 1, 1998, the Company operates 39 KFC restaurants, three
of which also offer Taco Bell products under license agreements with Taco Bell
Corporation, 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 May 24, 1998 were $9,060,000
compared to $8,896,000 for the quarter ended May 25, 1997. The increase of
$164,000 was the result of a $317,000 increase in KFC revenues partially offset
by a $153,000 decline in revenues from the East Side Mario's restaurants. This
reflects a 0.8% comparable restaurant increase in KFC revenues and a 7.2%
comparable restaurant decline for the East Side Mario's. Revenues at the KFC
restaurants increased because of the addition of Taco Bell products and the
replacement of two low volume St. Louis restaurants with the Company's latest
new restaurant in Greensburg, PA which opened June 4, 1997. The East Side
Mario's restaurant revenues continued to decline due to the lack of marketing
support and inadequate menu and food systems provided by the franchisor.
COSTS OF SALES - FOOD, PAPER AND BEVERAGES. Food, paper and beverage
costs for the fiscal 1999 quarter decreased as a percentage of revenue from
31.1% in fiscal 1998 to 29.6% in fiscal 1999. The decrease was due to refunds
received from a poultry price guarantee program in the KFC restaurants and other
credits from food vendors as well as continuing strong operational controls in
all of the Company's restaurants.
COST OF SALES - LABOR AND BENEFITS. Labor and benefits remained
relatively constant as a percentage of revenue for the quarter ended May 24,
1998 at 26.8% compared to 26.7% one year ago. This was the result of the minimum
wage increase offset by favorable workers' compensation rates and strong
operational controls.
RESTAURANT OPERATING EXPENSES. Restaurant operating expenses increased
as a percentage of revenue from 27.6% in fiscal 1998 to 28.3% in fiscal 1999.
The increase was primarily caused by lower volume in the East Side Mario's
restaurants combined with slightly higher occupancy costs compared to the prior
fiscal year period.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization for fiscal
1999 increased to $457,000 from $419,000 in fiscal 1998 due to the addition of
one new KFC restaurant and the image enhancement of nine others over the past
year.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative
expenses for fiscal 1999 were $665,000 compared to $661,000 in the first quarter
of fiscal 1998. This was the result of decreases in field G & A offset by
increases in expenses related to the upgrading of computer systems.
OPERATING INCOME. Operating income in the current quarter increased to
$262,000 from $216,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 1998. Operating income
for the KFC restaurants in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 improved by $175,000
compared to the prior year quarter while the operating loss for the East Side
Mario's restaurants increased by $129,000.

<PAGE> 8
INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense on bank debt remained relatively
constant at $193,000 in fiscal 1999 compared to $191,000 in fiscal 1998.
Interest expense on capitalized leases was also substantially unchanged from the
prior year first quarter.
OTHER INCOME. Other income decreased to $6,000 in fiscal 1999 from
$16,000 in fiscal 1998 primarily as the result of lower interest income earned
during the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. Cash flow activity for the first
quarters of fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998 is presented in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows. Cash provided by operating activities was $581,000 in
the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The Company paid scheduled long-term bank and
capitalized lease debt of $250,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
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 KFC properties and refurbishment of existing ones.
GROWTH. The Company has entered into definitive agreements to purchase
six existing KFC restaurants from other existing franchisees. The purchase of
four of the restaurants is expected to be completed about July 15, 1998 and the
other two approximately August 15, 1998.
OTHER. The Company is currently not in full compliance with the
American Stock Exchange financial condition guidelines for continued listing.
Specifically, the guidelines indicate that any company with shareholders' equity
less than $4,000,000 and losses in 3 of its last 4 fiscal years may be
considered for delisting. This condition has been reviewed with representatives
of the American Stock Exchange who indicated that the Company's performance will
continue to be monitored by the Exchange.
