FLAGSTAR CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 1995
(Unaudited)


Note 1.  Introduction.

  Flagstar Corporation ("Flagstar" or the "Company") is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Flagstar Companies, Inc. ("FCI").  Flagstar, through its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, Denny's Holdings, Inc. and Spartan Holdings, Inc.
(and their respective subsidiaries), operates four restaurant chains.

Note 2.  Interim Period Presentation.

  The Statements of Consolidated Operations of Flagstar and its subsidiaries
for the three months ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 include all adjustments
management believes are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of
operations for such interim periods.   All such adjustments are of a normal and
recurring nature.

Note 3.  Per Share Data

  As described in Note 1, the Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of FCI. 
Accordingly, per share data is not meaningful and has been omitted for all
periods.  
       
Note 4.  Divestiture of Canteen Holdings, Inc.

  During the second quarter of 1994, the Company sold its food and vending
subsidiary for $447.1 million and adopted a plan to dispose of the remaining
concession and recreation services businesses of its subsidiary, Canteen
Holdings, Inc.  The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of
Consolidated Operations and Cash Flows reflect such businesses as discontinued
operations.   During November 1994, the Company announced that it had entered
into an agreement to sell TW Recreational Services, Inc. ("TWRS"), which
operates its recreation services business.  However, on May 12, 1995, the
Company received notification from the prospective buyer of TWRS' operation
that it was terminating such agreement.  The Company will resume its efforts to
sell TWRS in light of this development.  The Company is also continuing in its
efforts to sell Volume Services, Inc. ("Volume"), which operates its concession
services business.  The major league baseball strike, which ended during April
1995, has delayed the sale of Volume beyond the time originally anticipated. 

  The Company has allocated to the discontinued segment a pro-rata portion
of its interest and debt expense related to its acquisition debt based on the
ratio of the net assets of its discontinued operations to its total consolidated
net assets as of the 1989 acquisition date.  Interest and debt expense included
in discontinued operations for the quarters ended March 31, 1995 and 1994 were 
$4.6 million and $14.4 million, respectively.

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


  The following discussion is intended to highlight significant changes in
financial position as of March 31, 1995 and the results of operations for the
first quarter of 1995 as compared to the corresponding 1994 period.

  The interim Consolidated Financial Statements and this Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should
be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 1994 and the related Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both
of which are contained in the Flagstar Corporation 1994 Annual Report on Form
10-K.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 1995 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1994


  Operating revenues from continuing operations for the first quarter increased
by approximately $10.2 million (1.6%) as compared with the same period in 1994.
Denny's revenues increased by $7.9 million (2.2%).  Comparable store sales for
Denny's increased 3.9% in the first quarter of 1995 principally due to an 8.8%
increase in traffic offset, in part, by a 4.5% decrease in average check. 
Denny's increase in comparable store sales reflects the continued success of
the concept's value strategy and the impact of remodeled restaurants.  The
effect of the increase in Denny's comparable store sales was partially offset
by a 41-unit net decrease in the number of Company-owned restaurants, largely
due to the sale of  restaurants to franchisees.  During the 1995 quarter, the
Company completed remodels on 42 Company-owned restaurants bringing the total
completed to 166. Hardee's revenues decreased 1.9% to $158.0 million during the
first quarter of 1995 from $161.1 million during the comparable quarter of 1994
despite a 29-unit increase in the number of restaurants operated at March 31,
1995 as compared to March 31, 1994.  Hardee's comparable store sales decreased
by 6.5% reflecting decreases in average check of 0.2% and in traffic of 6.4% as
the quick-service segment continues to be affected by the aggressive value
positioning of the Company's principal competitors.  During the 1995 quarter,
the Company completed remodels on 40 of its Hardee's units.   Quincy's revenues
increased 7.3% to $72.4 million during the first quarter of 1995 from $67.5
million during the comparable quarter in 1994 principally as a result of an
8.4% increase in comparable store sales.  Such increase included a 10.2%
increase in traffic which was offset, in part, by a 1.6% decrease in average
check.  Revenue gains at Quincy's were the result of successful product
promotions and the impact of remodeled restaurants.  During the 1995 quarter,
the Company completed remodels on 16 of its Quincy's restaurants.  El Pollo
Loco's revenues increased $0.4 million during the first quarter of 1995 to
$31.5 million over the comparable quarter of 1994.  Comparable store sales
increased 6.2% during the 1995 quarter and include increases in traffic of 5.2%
and in average check of 1.0%, respectively.  The favorable impact of small-meal
promotions and remodeled restaurants at El Pollo Loco resulted in the increase
in comparable store sales.  Such increase was offset, in part, by a 19-unit
decrease in the number of Company-owned restaurants.  During the 1995 quarter,
the Company completed remodels on 16 of its El Pollo Loco restaurants.

  The Company's operating expenses increased by $11.6 million (2.0%) in the
first quarter of 1995 as compared with the same period of 1994.  Denny's
operating expenses increased by $0.5 million during the first quarter of 1995
as compared with the first quarter of 1994 and reflect increases in advertising
of $1.6 million and depreciation and amortization of $1.0 million.  Such
increases were offset by a decrease in payroll of $4.5 million which resulted
from favorable trends in self-insurance claims and a $0.8 million decrease in
product cost.   Also, during the 1995 quarter, operating expenses reflect a
gain of approximately $2.3 million from the sale of ten Denny's restaurants,
compared with a gain of $3.5 million from the sale of 18 restaurants during the
prior year quarter.  Hardee's operating expenses increased by $5.6 million 
principally due to increases in payroll of $2.5 million, overhead expenses of
$1.2 million, and maintenance expenses of $0.6 million.  The operating expenses
at Hardee's reflect a 29-unit increase in the number of restaurants operated at
the end of the 1995 quarter as compared with the 1994 quarter.   Quincy's
experienced a $5.7 million increase in operating expenses during the first
quarter of 1995 over the 1994 quarter principally due to increases in payroll
of $1.9 million, product cost of $1.7 million, and advertising of $1.4 million.
 The operating expenses of El Pollo Loco decreased by $1.1 million during the
1995 quarter in comparison to the comparable 1994 quarter principally as a
result of a gain of $0.9 million from the sale of seven restaurants during the
1995 quarter.    

  Total interest and debt expense decreased by $4.4 million in the first
quarter of 1995 principally as a result of a reduction in interest expense
following the payment during June 1994 of the principal amounts outstanding
under the term facility ($170.2 million) of the Company's Restated Credit
Agreement and certain other indebtedness following the sale of the Company's
food and vending subsidiary, and an increase in interest income offset by an
increase in expense related to interest rate exchange agreements.  Interest and
debt expense allocated to continuing operations increased by $7.8 million in
the first quarter as a result of the Company's sale of its food and vending
subsidiary in June 1994.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

  At March 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, the Company had working capital
deficits of $159.4 million and $128.3  million, respectively.  The increase in
the deficit between December 31, 1994 and March 31, 1995 is attributable
primarily to increases in accrued interest related to the timing of interest
payments and a reduction in cash and cash equivalents which has been used to
finance the Company's restaurant remodeling programs.  The Company is able to
operate with a substantial working capital deficiency because (i) restaurant
operations and most other food service operations are conducted primarily on a
cash (and cash equivalent) basis with a low level of accounts receivable, (ii)
rapid turnover allows a limited investment in inventories and (iii) accounts
payable for food, beverages and supplies usually become due after the receipt
of cash from the related sales.
  
  As a result of the termination of the agreement to sell TWRS on May 12, 1995
(as described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements), the Company
is continuing its efforts to sell TWRS, which operates the Company's recreation
services business, as well as Volume, which operates its concession services
business.  The major league baseball strike, which ended during April 1995, has
delayed the sale of Volume beyond the time originally anticipated.
