UNI-MARTS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
A. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
The consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 1998, the consolidated
statements of operations and the consolidated statements of cash flows
for the quarters ended January 1, 1998 and January 2, 1997 have been
prepared by Uni-Marts, Inc. (the "Company") without audit. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the
Company at January 1, 1998 and the results of operations and cash flows for
all periods presented have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested
that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with
the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1997. The
results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be obtained for the full year.
B. OPERATIONS:
The Company incurred a loss of $274,000 in the first quarter of fiscal year
1998. This loss was primarily due to lower gross profits on merchandise
and lower than anticipated profit contributions from newly constructed and
remodeled stores. Also, as a result of amendments to the Company's various
debt agreements, the Company's debt service requirements for the current
fiscal year represent a significant increase from requirements in prior
years. In addition, these amendments restrict the Company's capital
expenditures to $3,000,000 in the current fiscal year and place certain
restrictions on any additional borrowing by the Company.
Management's plans for the balance of fiscal year 1998 include purchasing
gasoline from more competitive sources in order to improve margins. In
addition, the Company expects to continue to improve the operating results
of its existing fast-food merchandising units. The Company anticipates that
cash presently available and cash to be generated from operations, tax
refunds and asset sales will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements
during the balance of fiscal year 1998.
C. CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD:
In fiscal year 1997, the Company changed its method of valuing its
merchandise inventories. The Company formerly valued its merchandise
inventories at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market,
as determined by the retail inventory method utilizing a single category
of merchandise. The Company now values its merchandise inventories at
the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, as determined
by the retail inventory method utilizing eight categories of merchandise.
This change caused a one-time charge to earnings of $1,468,140, net of the
income tax benefit of $725,800. The statement of operations for the first
quarter of fiscal year 1997 has been restated to reflect retroactive
application of this change.
-8-
<PAGE>
D. TERMINATION OF GETTY LEASE AGREEMENT:
During the first quarter of fiscal year 1998, the Company discontinued
operating 96 stores, 92 of which were formerly leased from Getty Petroleum
Corp. ("Getty"). Getty has also agreed to purchase certain store and
gasoline equipment and inventories at these 92 stores and 13 additional
stores subsequently transferred to Getty.
E. INTANGIBLE AND OTHER ASSETS:
Intangible and other assets consist of the following:
January 1, September 30,
1998 1997
---------- -------------
Goodwill $5,999,680 $ 5,998,351
Lease acquisition costs 1,009,531 1,187,174
Non-competition agreements 0 1,213,040
Other 2,098,535 2,268,850
---------- -----------
9,107,746 10,667,415
Less accumulated amortization 2,751,964 4,034,258
---------- -----------
$6,355,782 $ 6,633,157
========== ===========
Goodwill represents the excess of costs over the fair value of net
assets acquired in business combinations and is amortized on a straight-
line basis over periods of 13 to 40 years. Lease acquisition costs are
the bargain element of acquired leases and are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over the related lease terms. Non-competition
agreements are amortized over the terms of the particular agreements.
It is the Company's policy to periodically review and evaluate the
recoverability of the intangible assets by assessing current and future
profitability and cash flows and to determine whether the amortization of
the balances over their remaining lives can be recovered through expected
future results and cash flows.
F. INTERIM CREDIT FACILITIES:
The Company has a $13.5 million revolving credit agreement with a bank
group at the bank's prime rate or a fixed rate option at the Company's
election, with a maximum of $3.5 million available for issuance of
letters of credit. The revolving credit facility is committed for a
two-year period expiring February 28, 1999 or a later date as approved
by the bank group. At January 1, 1998, borrowings of $8.0 million and
letters of credit of $2.7 million were outstanding under the agreement.

Less current maturities 12,797,181 12,722,649
----------- -----------
$35,896,105 $39,852,947
=========== ===========
The mortgage loans are collateralized by $7,326,100 of property, at cost.
Certain of the Company's debt agreements contain covenants which provide
for the maintenance of minimum net worth as well as limitations on future
indebtedness, sales and leasebacks and dispositions of assets, among other
things. These agreements may restrict the Company's ability to declare
and pay dividends on common stock. The amount of retained earnings
available for such dividends at January 1, 1998 was $267,100.
H. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
In the first quarter of fiscal year 1998, the Company adopted Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." The
adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.
-10-
<PAGE>
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which will result in disclosure
of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses, gains
and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The
Company is not required to adopt this standard until fiscal year 1999. At
this time, the Company has not determined the impact this statement will
have on the Company's financial statements but expects that the effect will
not be material.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board also issued Statement No. 131,
"Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,"
in June 1997. The Statement establishes standards for the way public
business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual
financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected
information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued
to shareholders. It also establishes standards for related disclosures
about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The
Company is not required to adopt this standard until fiscal year 1999. At
this time, the Company has not determined the impact this standard will
have on the Company's financial statements but does not expect the effect
to be material.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Matters discussed below should be read in conjunction with "Statements of
Operations Data" and "Operating Data (Convenience Stores Only)" on the
preceding pages. Certain statements contained in this report are forward
looking. Although Uni-Marts, Inc. believes that its expectations are based on
reasonable assumptions within the bounds of its knowledge of its business and
operations, there can be no assurance that actual results will not differ
materially from its expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to
differ from expectations include general economic, business and market
conditions, volatility of gasoline prices, merchandise margins, customer
traffic, weather conditions, labor costs and the level of capital expenditures.
For other important factors that may cause actual results to differ materially
from expectations and underlying assumptions, see the Company's periodic
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
QUARTERS ENDED JANUARY 1, 1998 AND JANUARY 2, 1997
- --------------------------------------------------
Total revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998 were $82.2 million
compared to $89.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 1997. This
decline of $7.2 million, or 8.1%, is the result of the operation of 96 fewer
stores, 92 of which were formerly leased from Getty Petroleum Corp., during the
quarter. The Company operated 18 Choice Cigarette Discount Outlets at
January 1, 1998 and merchandise sales discussed herein include sales of tobacco
products at these locations. Merchandise sales declined $1.2 million, or 2.6%,
to $45.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998 compared to $46.5
million in the comparable period of fiscal year 1997 due primarily to fewer
stores in operation. Gasoline sales declined by $5.9 million, or 14.0%, due to
an 8.0% decline in retail prices per gallon sold and the sale of 2.5 million
fewer gallons at the Company's convenience stores, largely as a result of fewer
stores in operation. Other income decreased by $60,000.
In fiscal year 1997, the Company changed its method of valuing its merchandise
inventories. The Company formerly valued its merchandise inventories at the
lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, as determined by the
retail inventory method utilizing a single category of merchandise. The
Company now values its merchandise inventories at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out method) or market, as determined by the retail inventory method
utilizing eight categories of merchandise. This change is expected to improve
the measurement of the Company's results of operations based upon a changing
product mix. This change caused a one-time charge to earnings of $1,468,140,
net of the income tax benefit of $725,800.
Gross profits on merchandise sales in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998
were $15.5 million, a decline of $2.4 million, or 13.1%, from merchandise
profits of $17.9 million in the comparable quarter of fiscal year 1997. This
decline is primarily due to lower gross profit rates but also due in part to
lower merchandise sales. Although the Company sold 2.5 million gallons less
gasoline at its convenience stores in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998,
gasoline gross profits increased by $421,000, or 10.2%, due to an increase in
the gross profits per gallon sold.
Selling expenses in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998 declined by $1.0
million, or 5.7%, compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 1997, primarily
as a result of the operation of fewer stores. General and administrative
expense declined in the current year's first quarter by $143,000, or 7.7%, in
comparison to the first quarter of fiscal year 1997. This decline is primarily
the result of staffing reductions due to terminations and retirements.
Depreciation and amortization declined by $228,000, or 12.6%, due largely to
reduced depreciation and amortization reflecting operations at fewer stores.

Interest expense increased by $209,000 due to higher average borrowing levels
in the current fiscal year.
The Company incurred a loss of $491,000 before income taxes and cumulative
effect of an accounting change compared to earnings of $309,000 in the first
quarter of fiscal year 1997. In the first quarter of the current fiscal year,
the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $217,000 due to the loss incurred
compared to income tax expense of $116,000 in the same quarter of fiscal year
1997. As a result of the accounting change discussed previously, in fiscal
year 1997 the Company recorded a charge to earnings of $1.5 million, net of
income tax benefit of $0.7 million. Operating results for the first quarter of
fiscal year 1997 have been restated to reflect the retroactive application of
this change. The Company recorded a net loss of $274,000, or $0.04 per share,
in the first quarter of fiscal year 1998 compared to a net loss of $1,275,000,
or $0.19 per share, in the first quarter of fiscal year 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Most of the Company's sales are for cash and its inventory turns over rapidly.
As a result, the Company's daily operations do not generally require large
amounts of working capital. From time to time, the Company utilizes
substantial portions of its cash and interim credit facilities to acquire and
construct new stores and renovate existing locations.
At September 30, 1997, the Company was not in compliance with certain
financial covenants contained in both its Senior Note Agreements and its
bank term loans and revolving credit agreement. The Senior Note Agreements
and bank term loans and revolving credit agreement were amended in December
1997 to waive this covenant noncompliance, modify certain existing covenants
and add new covenants. As a result of these amendments, the Company agreed to
repay the remaining Senior Note outstanding principal on February 2, 1998,
which payment has been made. Also the new schedule of bank term loan principal
payments beginning on February 2, 1998, requires quarterly payments of
$1,905,000 through October 1, 1998 and $2,000,000 through October 1, 1999, with
the remaining balance due on December 31, 1999. In addition, the Company must
make mandatory prepayments if specified cash flow targets are met or if the
Company receives proceeds from the sale of certain assets. The rate of
interest paid by the Company to the banks for the Revolving Credit Loan was
increased by 0.25% per annum. In addition, the amendment restricts the
Company's capital expenditures to $3.0 million in fiscal year 1998 and places
certain restrictions on any additional borrowing by the Company.
Capital requirements for the balance of fiscal year 1998 include debt and
capital lease payments of approximately $10.8 million and capital expenditures
of approximately $2.1 million to remodel existing stores and upgrade gasoline
marketing facilities. As of January 1, 1998, the Company had cash balances of
$2.6 million and additional borrowing capacity of $2.0 million available under
its existing credit agreements. The Company expects to utilize approximately
$8.0 million in proceeds from tax refunds and asset disposals for a portion of
the debt service requirement. Management believes these sources of cash and
cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fulfill its cash
requirements.
