BROOKSTONE, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
1. The results of the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ending August 3,
1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal
year. The Company's business, like the business of retailers in general, is
subject to seasonal influences. Historically, the Company's fourth fiscal
quarter, which includes the Christmas selling season, has produced a
disproportionate amount of the Company's net sales and generally all of its
income from operations. The Company expects that its business will continue
to be subject to such seasonal influences.
2. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and
practices consistently applied; and in the opinion of the Company, contain
all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary
to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for
the periods reported. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in financial statements presented in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. It is
suggested that the accompanying consolidated financial statements be read
in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto which
may be found in the Company's 1995 annual report.
3. The exercise of stock options which have been granted under the Company's
stock option plans gives rise to compensation which is includable in the
taxable income of the optionees and deductible by the Company for tax
purposes upon exercise. Such compensation reflects an increase in the fair
market value of the Company's Common Stock subsequent to the date of grant.
For financial reporting purposes, the tax effect of this deduction is
accounted for as a credit to additional paid-in capital rather than as a
reduction of income tax expense. Such exercises resulted in a tax benefit
to the Company of approximately $35,000 for the thirteen week period ending
August 3, 1996 and $166,000 for the twenty-six week period August 3, 1996.
4. The Company's total current assets were $5.2 million lower on August 3,
1996 than they were on February 3, 1996. This decrease was primarily a
reflection of a cash and cash equivalents decrease of $10.0 million
partially offset by an increase in merchandise inventories of $2.3 million.
Additionally, receivables decreased $1.3 million while other current assets
increased $.9 million, and deferred income taxes increased $2.9 million due
to the Company recording tax benefits resulting from operating losses and
tax benefits from the exercise of stock options.
5. The Company's total current liabilities were $1.0 million lower on August
3, 1996 than they were on February 3, 1996. This decrease results from a
$3.7 million decrease in other current liabilities, primarily offset by a
$1.3 million increase in accounts payable and $1.4 million in short term
borrowings.
6. The Company's shareholder's equity was $4.0 million lower on August 3, 1996
than it was on February 3, 1996. This decrease was a reflection of (1) the
$4.2 million net loss for the period; and (2) the recording of
approximately $0.2 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options
and related tax benefits.

BROOKSTONE, INC.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations for
the Thirteen and Twenty-Six Week Periods Ended August 3, 1996
Results of Operations
- ---------------------
For the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended August 3, 1996, net sales
increased 14.7% and 18.3% over comparable periods last year. Comparable store
sales for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods increased 7.7% and 9.8%. The
sales increase reflects the results of opening ten (10) new stores subsequent to
the second quarter during Fiscal 1995 and one new store during the first quarter
of Fiscal 1996, partially offset by the loss of sales from closing one store in
the first quarter of Fiscal 1996. The total Brookstone stores open at the end
of the twenty-six week period ended August 3, 1996 was 144 versus 134 at the end
of the comparable period in Fiscal 1995. Mail order sales increased 6.8% and
14.5% for the same thirteen and twenty-six week periods.
Gross Profit as a percentage of net sales was 32.7% and 29.9% for the
thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended August 3, 1996, versus 31.6% and
29.1% for the comparable periods last year. This increase in gross profit as a
percentage of net sales is primarily the result of leveraging occupancy costs
associated with the increases in net sales for the thirteen and twenty-six week
periods, partially offset by a moderate increase in sales of lower margin
products.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales
were 35.9% and 40.5% for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended August
3, 1996 versus 35.0% and 40.0% for the comparable periods last year. The
increase in the percentage is primarily the result of increased advertising
costs associated with increased catalog circulation and higher productions
costs.
Other income, which represents inventory capitalization, was $307,000 and
$792,000 for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended August 3, 1996 as
compared to other expenses related to inventory capitalization of $354,000 and
$593,000 for the comparable periods last year.
Net interest expense for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended
August 3, 1996, was $164,000 and $240,000 compared to $150,000 and $293,000
during the comparable periods last year. The increase for the thirteen week
period is related to borrowings under the revolving credit agreement during 1996
verses 1995. The reduction for the twenty-six period is primarily the result of
interest income from short term investments versus comparable periods last year.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company reported a net loss of $686,000 or
$0.09 per share, for the thirteen week period ended August 3, 1996, as compared
to a net loss of $985,000 or $0.13 per share for the comparable period last
year. For the twenty-six week period ended August 3, 1996, the Company reported
a net loss of $4,193,000 or $0.54 per share compared to a net loss of $4,318,000
or $0.56 per share for the comparable period last year.

Financial Condition
- -------------------
At August 3, 1996, working capital was $21.7 million, a $4.0 million decrease
from February 3, 1996. This decline reflects capital expenditures of $3.7
million, a $1.3 million increase in accounts payable and the seasonal operating
loss, partially offset by a $2.3 million increase in merchandise inventories.
The capital expenditures were principally related to the remodeling of seven
retail stores and the opening of one new store year to date. The increase in
inventory is primarily the result of actual and scheduled new store growth, an
increase in proprietary and imported product offerings and stocking initiatives
intended to support continued same store sales growth.
The Company maintains a revolving credit agreement to finance inventory
purchases, which historically peak in the third quarter in anticipation of the
holiday selling season. At August 3, 1996, the Company had $1.4 million in
outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit agreement, and at July 29,
1995, it had no such short term borrowings. To ensure that it has adequate
liquidity during the third and fourth quarter of Fiscal 1996, the Company has
completed negotiations with its lender to increase the amount available under
its credit agreement by $5.0 million during the Company's pre-holiday inventory
building period. The Company expects to enter into a formal agreement by the
end of the third quarter of Fiscal 1996.
