NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The financial statements are unaudited and reflect all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating
results for the interim period. The financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders
for the fiscal year ended January 3, 1996. The results of
operations for the twelve weeks ended March 27, 1996 are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year
ending January 1, 1997.
2. Earnings per share is based on the weighted average number
of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding in
each period.
3. Effective January 4, 1996, the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, Accounting for Stock
Based Compensation. This standard allows the Company to select
either a fair value based method or it's current intrinsic value
based method of accounting for employee stock-based
compensation. The Company retained it's intrinsic value method
of accounting and, therefore, the adoption of this standard did
not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
Results of operations are for the twelve weeks ("first quarter")
ended March 27, 1996, as compared to the twelve weeks ended March 22,
1995. During January 1996, two underperforming restaurants located
in the Northeast were closed. In March 1996, a new restaurant in Florida
was opened. During fiscal 1995, 13 underperforming restaurants were
closed and 3 restaurants were spun-off. Of the total restaurants closed
and spun-off in fiscal 1995, ten underperforming restaurants were closed
during the latter part of the quarter ended March 22, 1995. At the end of
the first quarter 1996, there were 27 Company-owned restaurants in
operation.
RESTAURANT SALES of $11,195,694 for the quarter ended March 27, 1996
represents an decrease of $4,119,298 or 26.9% from the same quarter in
1995. This decrease reflects the fewer number of restaurants operating
in first quarter of 1996 compared to the first quarter of 1995 due to the
restaurants closed and spun-off. Additionally, sales were adversely
effected due to the harsh winter weather experienced in the Northeast
during the first quarter of fiscal 1996. Due to the severe snow storms in
the Northeast, some restaurants were unable to open for business and some
were forced to close down early. On some of the days that the restaurants
were able to remain open, the volume of business was significantly less
than normal due to the limited number of people traveling in the severe
weather and limited number of streets cleared for travel.
Average weekly sales per restaurant for the twelve week quarter ended
March 27, 1996 was $35,096, compared to average weekly sales of $31,774
per restaurant during the same period last year. The increase in average
weekly sales in 1996 compared to the same period last year is due largely
to the exclusion of the underperforming restaurants in 1996 that are
included in the 1995 average weekly sales.
COST OF RESTAURANT SALES includes food, labor, operating, occupancy and
depreciation and amortization expenses. Operating costs consist primarily
of costs of supplies, utilities, maintenance, personal property taxes,
and insurance.
Cost of food and labor as a percentage of sales for the twelve weeks
ended March 22, 1995 decreased to 64.9% from 67.1% in the same quarter,
last year. This reduction was due to continuing to monitor the food and
labor costs, and providing product mix in our menus that yield more
favorable results. Other operating costs, occupancy and depreciation,
were 22.7% for the first quarter, 1996 compared to costs of 25.3% in the
comparable quarter of 1995. Occupancy costs for the first quarter of 1996
compare favorable as a percentage of sales compared to the same period in
1995 primarily due to the closing of the underperforming restaurants.
<PAGE> 10
STACEY'S BUFFET, INC.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS decreased by $14,281
or 2.3% for the first quarter, 1996 as compared to the same
period for the previous year. Total selling, general and
administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, was 5.4% for
the first quarter of 1996, as compared to 4.0% for the first
quarter of 1995. This increase as a percentage of sales is a
result of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 being less
than sales for the same period in 1995.
Amortization of goodwill was $109,500 for the first quarter of
1995, compared to $133,994 for the first quarter of 1995. This
reduction in amortization expense results from the reduction in
goodwill related to the spin-off of three restaurants in fiscal
1995. Goodwill amortization is a non-cash expense that was the
result of the 1993 merger.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE) for the first quarter, 1995 was $98,172
compared to $151,310 in the same quarter, last year. Other
income (expense) consists primarily of royalty fees earned,
interest income, interest expense.
INFLATIONARY FACTORS were minimal on the operating results of
the Company. Wholesale food costs have remained stable during
the first quarter of 19965, and there have not been any
noticeable increases in supplies and other costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
The principal changes in the Company's financial condition from
January 3, 1996 were decreases in the line of credit and
accounts payable. As of March 27, 1996, Stacey's ratio of
current assets to current liabilities was .25, as compared to
.23 at January 3, 1996. Current liabilities as of March 27,
1996, include $1,914,678 for the provision for restaurant
renovations and closings.
The Company's capital has been obtained through cash from
operations, credit from trade suppliers, and the sale of common
stock related to the merger in December with the Stacey Lynn
Group. The remodeling and conversion program undertaken during
1994 and the operational losses incurred in prior years used up
most of the Company's cash reserves. Based on current operating
results and management's projected operating results, the
Company believes cash flow generated from restaurant operations
will be sufficient to pay debts as they become due.
