NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include
all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. The statements do reflect all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The statements should
be read in conjunction with the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the fiscal year ended January 29, 1995 incorporated into the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The results of operations for the thirteen week periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE 2: EARNINGS PER SHARE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of common shares
and common equivalent shares outstanding. Common equivalent shares represent
dilutive stock options and restricted stock shares, reduced by the number of
shares which could be repurchased at the average fair market value during the
periods indicated with the proceeds of the options and the income tax savings
available from recognizing compensation expense as a tax deduction.

HANCOCK FABRICS, INC.
ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
 CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FINANCIAL CONDITION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Historically, cash flow from operations has been sufficient to finance the
expansion and operation of Hancock's business. Hancock's principal capital
requirements are for the financing of inventories and to a lesser extent for
capital expenditures relating to store locations and its warehouse and
distribution facility. Hancock has also purchased treasury stock and paid
dividends to shareholders. Funds for such purposes are generated from Hancock's
operations and, if necessary, supplemented by borrowings from commercial
lenders. During 1995, Hancock plans to open approximately 20 units and close or
relocate a similar number resulting in no net increase in retail fabric stores.
Inventories and other assets from less productive locations will be redeployed
to new openings for more effective utilization of investment. During the
thirteen weeks ended April 30, 1995, Hancock opened 6 stores and closed 6
stores, which resulted in a total of 500 stores at period end.

During the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 1995, accounts payable increased due
to the timing of payments to vendors. Inventories decreased due to changes in
the product mix with less inventory in apparel goods.

The Company currently has $36 million in outstanding borrowings, or about 27%
of total capitalization, which is $4 million lower than the same period last
year.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thirteen weeks ended April 30, 1995 compared to thirteen weeks ended May 1,
1994

Sales decreased to $90.1 million from $92.9 million in the same period of the
prior year. A decrease of 1.6% in comparable store sales contributed to the
decline in sales. In addition sales in new stores opened less than one year
have not reached the sales maturity to offset the sales of the stores that were
replaced.

Net earnings were $1.3 million, or $.06 per share, compared with $1.0 million,
or $.05 per share, for the comparable period of the prior year. The increase in
earnings resulted from higher gross margins and a reduction in net interest
expense.





                                      -8-
<PAGE>   9

Gross margin, as a percent of sales, increased to 45.5% from 43.2% in the first
quarter of 1994. Gross margins improved due to changes in the product mix which
required fewer close outs of apparel goods. The effect of LIFO for the thirteen
weeks ended April 30, 1995 and May 1, 1994 decreased gross margin by $750
thousand and $1.5 million, respectively.

Total operating and interest expenses as a percentage of sales
increased to 43.1% from 41.5% in the first quarter of 1994 primarily due to the
lower sales volume. Operating expense dollars increased slightly; however,
interest expense was less as the lower debt level served to offset the effect
of interest rate increases from a year ago.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EFFECT OF INFLATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The impact of inflation on labor and occupancy costs can significantly affect
Hancock's operations. Many of Hancock's employees are paid hourly rates related
to the Federal minimum wage; accordingly, any increases affect Hancock.
Proposed Federal minimum wage hikes would have an adverse effect on earnings
although the impact cannot be readily quantified. In addition, payroll taxes,
employee benefits and other employee related costs continue to increase. Costs
of leases for new store locations remained stable, but the renewal costs of
older leases continue to increase. Taxes, maintenance and insurance costs have
also risen. Hancock believes that the practice of maintaining adequate
operating margins through a combination of price adjustments and cost controls,
careful evaluation of occupancy needs and efficient purchasing practices are
the most effective tools for coping with increasing costs and expenses.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEASONALITY
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company's business is slightly seasonal. Peak sales periods occur during
the fall and pre-Easter weeks, while the lowest sales periods occur during
pre-Christmas and mid-summer.
