THE PENN TRAFFIC COMPANY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
UNAUDITED
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and with the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not
necessarily an indication of results to be expected for the year. In
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of the results are included for the interim periods, and
all such adjustments are normal and recurring. These unaudited
interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 1994
("Fiscal 1994").
Net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the
average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each
period, after giving effect to preferred stock dividends. Fully
diluted income per share is not presented for each of the periods
since the reduction from primary income per share is less than three
percent.
During the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 28,
1995 ("Fiscal 1995"), the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits" (Note 7).

NOTE 3 - UNUSUAL ITEM
During the second quarter of Fiscal 1994, the Company recorded certain
expenses totalling $6.4 million classified as an unusual item. This unusual
item is comprised of $4.0 million related to a voluntary employee separation
program at the Company's P & C division and $2.4 million related to the
realignment of certain operations.
NOTE 4 - INVENTORIES
If the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method had been used by the Company,
inventories would have been $14,803,000 and $14,353,000 higher than reported at
July 30, 1994 and January 29, 1994, respectively.
NOTE 5 - EXTRAORDINARY ITEM
During the second quarter of Fiscal 1995 and the second quarter of Fiscal
1994, the Company had extraordinary charges of $0.7 million (net of $0.5 million
income tax benefit) and $4.5 million (net of $2.9 million income tax benefit),
respectively. Extraordinary charges for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30,
1994 and July 31, 1993 were $3.0 million (net of $2.1 million income tax
benefit) and $22.1 million (net of $14.4 million income tax benefit),
respectively. These extraordinary charges relate to the early retirement of
debt.

NOTE 6 - INVESTMENT
EQUITY INTEREST IN THE GRAND UNION COMPANY
Penn Traffic holds an indirect ownership interest representing
approximately 17.8% of the common stock of Grand Union Holdings Corporation
("GU Holdings"), the indirect corporate parent of The Grand Union Company
("Grand Union"), on a fully diluted basis. Penn Traffic's ownership interest in
GU Holdings was acquired in July 1989 (Fiscal 1990) and is held through GAC
Holdings, whose other investors include Miller Tabak Hirsch + Co. ("MTH") and
individuals affiliated with MTH, certain management employees of Penn Traffic
and other investors.
The Company is accounting for its investment in Grand Union under the
equity method. The investment was recorded originally at cost of $18,250,000.
The carrying value of the investment was totally written off as of February 2,
1991.
NOTE 7 - CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLE
Effective January 30, 1994, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 112, "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment
Benefits" ("SFAS 112"). SFAS 112 requires employers to recognize the obligation
to provide postemployment benefits on an accrual basis if certain conditions are
met. The Company's postemployment benefits covered by SFAS 112 are primarily
disability related claims covering indemnity and medical payments. The
obligation for these claims is measured using actuarial techniques and
assumptions including appropriate discount rates. The cumulative effect of the
change in accounting principle determined as of January 30, 1994 was recorded in
the first quarter of Fiscal 1995, reducing net income by $5.8 million (net of
$4.1 million income tax benefit).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THIRTEEN WEEKS ("SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 1995") AND TWENTY-SIX WEEKS ENDED JULY
30, 1994 COMPARED TO THIRTEEN WEEKS ("SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 1994") AND TWENTY-
SIX WEEKS ENDED JULY 31, 1993
Income before cumulative effect of change in accounting principle was $6.2
million for both Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 and for the twenty-six weeks ended
July 30, 1994, compared to a loss of $3.8 million for Second Quarter Fiscal 1994
and a loss of $21.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 1993. The
improvement in Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 was primarily due to an $11.9 million
increase in operating income combined with a $3.8 million decrease in
extraordinary charges related to debt retirement, partially offset by a $5.8
million increase in the provision for income taxes. The improvement for the
twenty-six week period was primarily due to a $13.8 million increase in
operating income combined with a $19.1 million decrease in extraordinary charges
related to debt retirement, partially offset by a $7.5 million increase in the
provision for income taxes.
The following table sets forth statement of operations components expressed
as a percentage of total revenues for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 and Second
Quarter Fiscal 1994 and for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 1994 and July
31, 1993, respectively:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Total revenues for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 increased to $835.8
million from $781.0 million in Second Quarter Fiscal 1994. Total revenues for
the twenty-six week period ended July 30, 1994 increased to $1.65 billion from
$1.54 billion for the twenty-six week period ended July 31, 1993. Sales from
retail supermarkets existing in both periods, "same store sales," increased 1.6%
in Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, and 1.3% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30,
1994. The increase in total revenues is primarily the result of the increase in
retail supermarket sales resulting from the acquisition of the Insalaco stores
in September 1993, the increase in same store sales, and revenues from new and
enlarged stores resulting from the Company's capital expenditure program.
Wholesale supermarket sales decreased in Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 to $111.1
million from Second Quarter Fiscal 1994 sales of $113.5 million and decreased to
$220.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 1994 from $228.4 million
for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 1993.
In Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, gross profit was $192.8 million compared to
Second Quarter Fiscal 1994 gross profit of $172.1 million, representing 23.1%
and 22.0% of total revenues, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of
total revenues increased to 22.6% for the twenty-six week period ended July 30,
1994 from 22.1% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 1993. The increase in
gross profit as a percentage of total revenues for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995
primarily resulted from a combination of reduced product procurement costs and
the relative increase in retail revenues compared to wholesale revenues.
Selling and administrative expenses for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 were
$150.4 million compared with $135.2 million in Second Quarter Fiscal 1994.
Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased
to 18.0% for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 from 17.3% in Second Quarter Fiscal
1994. Selling and administrative expenses for the twenty-six week period ended
July 30, 1994 were $295.6 million compared to $271.9 million for the twenty-six
week period ended July 31, 1993. Selling and administrative expenses as a
percentage of total revenues increased to 18.0% for the twenty-six week period
ended July 30, 1994 from 17.6% for the twenty-six week period ended July 31,
1993. The increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage
of total revenues for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 primarily resulted from the
relative increase in retail revenues compared to wholesale revenues combined
with an increase in fixed and semi-variable expenses as a percentage of total
revenues during a period without food price inflation and continued consumer
preferences towards lower-priced products.
Depreciation and amortization of $21.5 million in Second Quarter Fiscal
1995 and $20.4 million in Second Quarter Fiscal 1994 represented 2.6% of total
revenues for both periods. Depreciation and amortization of $43.2 million for
the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 1994 and $40.2 million for the twenty-six
weeks ended July 31, 1993 represented 2.6% of total revenues in both periods.
- 9 -
<PAGE>
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Operating income for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 was $42.4 million or 5.1%
of total revenues compared to $30.5 million or 3.9% of total revenues in Second
Quarter Fiscal 1994. Operating income for the twenty-six week period ended July
30, 1994 was $75.8 million or 4.6% of total revenues compared to $62.0 million
or 4.1% of total revenues for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 1993. Second
Quarter Fiscal 1994 operating income excluding the effect of the unusual item
was $36.9 million or 4.7% of total revenues. Operating income excluding the
effect of the unusual item for the twenty-six week period ended July 31, 1993
was $68.4 million or 4.4% of total revenues. Operating income for Second
Quarter Fiscal 1995 increased primarily as a result of an increase in gross
profit combined with the absence of an unusual item (Note 3), partially offset
by an increase in selling and administrative expenses.
Interest expense for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 and Second Quarter Fiscal
1994 was $28.8 million and $28.9 million, respectively. Interest expense for
the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 1994 and July 31, 1993 was $57.8 million and
$59.7 million, respectively. The decrease in interest expense was the result of
a decline in the average interest rate on the Company's outstanding debt. This
rate decline is the direct result of the Company's debt refinancing activities.
Income before income taxes, extraordinary item, and the cumulative effect
of a change in accounting principle was $13.6 million for Second Quarter Fiscal
1995, compared to $1.6 million for Second Quarter Fiscal 1994. Income before
income taxes and extraordinary item for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 1994
was $18.0 million compared to $2.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July
31, 1993. Results for Second Quarter Fiscal 1994 and for the twenty-six week
period ended July 31, 1993 were significantly impacted by the unusual item (Note
3).
The income tax provision was $6.8 million for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995
compared to $0.9 million in Second Quarter Fiscal 1994. The income tax
provision was $8.9 million for the twenty-six week period ended July 30, 1994
compared to $1.3 million in the prior year. The effective tax rates vary from
the statutory rates due to differences between income for financial reporting
and tax reporting purposes, primarily related to goodwill amortization resulting
from prior acquisitions.
The $0.7 million extraordinary item (net of $0.5 million income tax
benefit) and $4.5 million (net of $2.9 million income tax benefit) for Second
Quarter Fiscal 1995 and Second Quarter Fiscal 1994, respectively, and the
extraordinary items of $3.0 million (net of $2.1 million income tax benefit) and
$22.1 million (net of $14.4 million income tax benefit) for the twenty-six week
period ended July 30, 1994 and the twenty-six week period ended July 31, 1993,
respectively, all relate to the early retirement of debt.
The Company adopted SFAS 112 in First Quarter Fiscal 1995. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting principle was a charge of $5.8 million (net
of $4.1 million income tax benefit) (Note 7).

<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, operating income increased to $42.4
million from $30.5 million for Second Quarter Fiscal 1994. Interest expense for
Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 was $28.8 million as compared to $28.9 million during
Second Quarter Fiscal 1994. Income before extraordinary item and the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle for Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 was
$6.9 million as compared to $0.6 million for Second Quarter Fiscal 1994.
Payments of principal and interest on the Company's $988.6 million long-
term debt (excluding capital leases) will materially restrict Company funds
available to finance capital expenditures and working capital. Principal
payments of long-term debt of $2.3 million, $4.1 million and $2.7 million are
due during the remainder of Fiscal 1995, Fiscal 1996 and Fiscal 1997,
respectively.
The Company has a revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit
Facility") which provides for borrowings of up to $200 million, subject to a
borrowing base limitation measured by eligible inventory and accounts receivable
of the Company. The Revolving Credit Facility matures in April 2000 and is
secured by a pledge of the Company's inventory, accounts receivable and related
assets. Total availability under the Revolving Credit Facility was $146.7
million at July 30, 1994. Effective August 24, 1994, the Revolving Credit
Facility was amended to provide for certain interest rate reductions on
borrowings made thereunder. Pursuant to the terms of the amendment, based on
the interest coverage ratio which the Company has attained, the interest
rate on borrowings as to which the Company elects a LIBOR-based rate option
is reduced from LIBOR plus 2.25% to LIBOR plus 1.75%, and the interest rate on
borrowings as to which the Company elects a prime-based rate option is reduced
from prime plus .75% to prime plus .50%.
During Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, the Company's internally generated funds
from operations and amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility
provided sufficient liquidity to meet the Company's operating, capital
expenditure and debt service needs.
During Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, the Company redeemed $19.7 million of 13
3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 1999. During the twenty-six week period
ended July 30, 1994, the Company redeemed or repurchased $52.4 million of 13
3/4% Senior Subordinated Notes due 1999 and $5.8 million of 11 1/2% Senior Notes
due 2001.
The Company has entered into four interest rate swap agreements, each of
which expires within the next four years, that effectively convert $155 million
of its fixed rate borrowings into variable rate obligations. Under the terms of
these agreements, the Company makes payments at variable rates which are based
on LIBOR and receives payments at fixed interest rates. The net amount paid or
received is included in interest expense.
Cash flows to meet the Company's requirements for operating, investing and
financing activities in Second Quarter Fiscal 1995 are reported in the
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For the 26-week period ended July 30,
1994, the Company experienced a positive cash flow from operating activities of
$39.6 million.
Working capital decreased by $45.9 million from January 29, 1994 to July
30, 1994.
- 11 -
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (CONTINUED)
The Company is in compliance with all terms and restrictive covenants of
its long-term debt agreements. The Company's debt agreements provide
restrictive covenants on the payment of dividends to its shareholders. As of
July 30, 1994, no dividend payments to its shareholders could have been made
under the most restrictive of these covenants.
The Company expects to spend approximately $130 million on capital
expenditures, including capital leases, during Fiscal 1995. The Company expects
to finance such capital expenditures through internally generated cash flow,
borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and new capital leases. Capital
expenditures will be principally for new stores, replacement stores and
remodels. In Second Quarter Fiscal 1995, two new stores, three replacement
stores and two remodels were completed. In addition, eight new or replacement
stores are under construction and four remodels are in process, all of which
will be completed by the end of Fiscal 1995.
