Notes to Financial Statements
(unaudited)
A. Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared
by the Company in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission in regard to quarterly reporting. In the opinion of the Company, the
statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, which are necessary for a fair representation of the financial
position and results of operations for interim periods.
B. Interim Results of Operations
The Company's business is highly seasonal, with peak sales periods
occurring during its fourth fiscal quarter which includes the Christmas season.
The net earnings of any interim quarter are seasonally disproportionate to net
sales since administrative and certain operating expenses remain relatively
constant during the year. Consequently, interim results should not be considered
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year.
C. Expansion
Since January 30, 1999, the Company has opened nine new stores totaling
approximately 37,700 square feet.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following table sets forth certain items in the Statements of Income
as a percentage of net sales for the three months ended May 1, 1999 and May 2,
1998.

======== ========
Net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 increased 7%, or $2.7
million, over the same period last year, and reflects the net addition of 22 new
stores. Comparable store sales were down 1% due primarily to weaker than planned
customer traffic in April, 1999, and in part to the opening of new stores in
existing markets. During the first quarter the Company opened seven new stores
and closed four locations which had not met sales and profitability
expectations. There were 236 stores in operation as of May 1, 1999, compared to
214 stores at May 1, 1998.
Cost of sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was 51.5% of net sales
compared to 52.1% of net sales for the same period last year. This 0.6% of net
sales reduction was primarily due to the higher capitalization of buying and
occupancy costs in inventory.
Selling, general and administrative expenses in the first quarter of
fiscal 2000 were 40.3% of net sales compared to 39.1% of net sales in the
previous year. This 1.2% of net sales increase was due primarily to incurring
planned store payroll and rent costs while sales were less than planned.
6
<PAGE>
Interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was 0.6% of net sales
compared to 0.3% of net sales last year due primarily to higher borrowing
levels. Approximately half of the Company's increased borrowings was the result
of the Company's stock buy-back program and the balance of the increase relates
to inventory purchases and capital expenditures for the 22 net new stores.
Net income was $1.4 million ($0.30 per diluted share) and $1.6 million
($0.30 per diluted share) for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999
respectively. Diluted earnings per share remained constant as a result of the
reduced number of weighted average shares outstanding which was attributable to
the Company's stock buyback program.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company has funded its operating activities, including capital
expenditures for the opening of new stores, from internally generated funds and
from bank borrowings. The Company plans to open 20 - 25 new stores in fiscal
2000, expects to close approximately fifteen under-performing stores, while also
remodeling several others. During the three months ended May 1, 1999, the
Company opened seven new stores and closed four. The Company also expects to
continue to repurchase the Company's common stock in the open market. The
Company believes that its sources of liquidity and capital resources will
continue to be sufficient to fund its operations, capital expenditures and stock
repurchase initiatives.
Operating activities used net cash of $2.6 million and $4.7 million during
the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. This fluctuation was
primarily attributable to improved payment terms on inventory purchases this
year versus last year, which resulted in higher payables at May 1, 1999 compared
to May 2, 1998.
Net cash used for investing activities was primarily for the purpose of
store expansion and remodeling, as well as point of sale (POS) register
purchases. Capital expenditures for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999
approximated $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. In the first quarter
of fiscal 2000 the Company opened seven new stores, converted one store to its
superstore format and converted approximately 55 stores to its new POS register.
During the first quarter of the prior year, the Company opened six new stores,
converted one to its superstore format, remodeled three stores and converted
approximately ten stores to its new POS register.
Financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2000 and 1999
provided net cash of approximately $3.8 million and $6.0 million, respectively.
Financing activities primarily relate to fluctuations in the borrowing levels
under the Company's revolving credit agreements. During the first quarter of
fiscal 2000, the Company used approximately $2.6 million for the repurchase of
286,000 shares of its common stock. The Company's revolving credit agreements
with two banks aggregate $30.0 million. As of May 1, 1999, the Company had net
unused commitments of approximately $13.3 million under the agreements.

Dear Bob:
I am writing to document the modifications to the Credit Agreement dated March
10, 1994, and the subsequent Amendment to the Credit Agreement dated April 30,
1997, between S & K Famous Brands, Inc. (the "Company"), and Crestar Bank (the
"Bank") related to the $16,000,000 Revolver offered to the Company. The
revisions to the above agreements in order to permit the Company to pursue the
repurchase of its stock are as follows:
1. Section 7.3.3 Investments. Subsection (h) is added to the Credit Agreement to
permit the repurchase of the Company's outstanding shares, if, after giving
effect thereto, there would not exist any Default hereunder. Any previous Event
of Default prior to the addition of this clause, as a result of the repurchase
of the Company's outstanding stock, is hereby waived, as long as the repurchase
meets the requirements of the above language. 2. Section 7.1.3 Minimum
Consolidated Tangible Net Worth in the Amendment to the Credit Agreement is
modified to require the Company to maintain at least $48,300,000 of Consolidated
Tangible Net Worth at January 30, 1999 and for each fiscal year thereafter, of
not less than $48,300,000 plus 80% of each successive year's net income.
However, during the fiscal year beginning February 1, 1999 and all periods
thereafter, upon approval of the Company's Board of Directors and notification
to Crestar, S & K Famous Brands may repurchase up to an additional $12,800,000
of its own stock. Any such repurchases shall reduce the minimum Consolidated
Tangible Net Worth requirement by 90% of the value of the stock repurchased. The
minimum Consolidated Net Worth will not be adjusted for any net loss reported by
the Company.
These revisions shall be incorporated into the Amendment to the Credit Agreement
dated April 30, 1997 and the Credit Agreement dated March 10, 1994. I hope these
modifications will give you the flexibility needed to implement your repurchase
strategy. Thanks for allowing Crestar to meet the banking requirements of S & K.
Please give me a call should you have any questions.
Sincerely,
/s/ William A. Stratton

FIRST AMENDMENT TO
AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT
This FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT is dated as
of April 2, 1999, and is between S & K FAMOUS BRANDS, INC. (the "Company") and
FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK, as successor-in-interest to Signet Bank/Virginia (the
"Bank").
Recitals
A. The Company and the Bank entered into an Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of May 31, 1997 (the "Loan Agreement"). B. The Company and
the Bank have agreed to modify certain provisions in the Loan Agreement, subject
to the terms and conditions of this First Amendment.
Agreement
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the terms, conditions and
agreements herein, the Bank and the Company hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions. Except as provided specifically herein, all defined terms
used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan
Agreement.
2. Amendments. The Loan Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
A. Section 7.3 is amended and restated as follows:
SECTION 7.3 Consolidated Tangible Net Worth. The
Company will maintain Consolidated Tangible Net Worth (i) as
of January 30, 1999, of not less than $48,300,000 and (ii)
for each fiscal year thereafter, of not less than
$48,300,000 plus eighty percent (80%) of each successive
year's net income. However, during the fiscal year beginning
February 1, 1999 and all periods thereafter, upon approval
of the Company's Board of Directors and notification to the
Bank, S & K may repurchase its own stock, provided the
aggregate market value of such repurchases does not exceed
$12,800,000. Any such repurchases shall reduce the minimum
Consolidated Tangible Net Worth requirement by 90% of the
value of the stock repurchased. In no event, however, shall
the Consolidated Tangible Net Worth as calculated herein be
reduced in the event of any net loss for any fiscal year.
B. Section 7.14 is amended to provide that the Company is permitted to
repurchase outstanding shares of the Company, if, after giving effect thereto,
there would not exist any Default or any Potential Default under the Loan
Agreement, and that any previous Event of Default prior to this First Amendment,
as a result of the repurchase of the Company's outstanding stock, is hereby
waived.
C. Section 10.5 is amended to change the manner in which interest is
calculated for Money Market Loans (made pursuant to section 2.3 of the Loan
Agreement) from the basis of a year of 365 days to a 360-day year basis.
Interest shall continue to be calculated on a 365-day-year basis for Fed Funds
Loans (made pursuant to section 2.1 of the Loan Agreement).
3. Limited Amendment. Except as provided expressly in this First
Amendment, each term, condition or agreement in the Loan Agreement shall
continue to be fully enforceable in accordance with its terms.
