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, 1996 and the results of operations for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the corresponding 1995 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, 1995 and the related Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both
of which are contained in the Flagstar Companies, Inc. 1995 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 1996 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 1995
General:
Operating revenue from continuing operations for the first quarter of
1996 decreased by approximately $86.0 million (13.5%) as compared with the same
period in 1995. Approximately $65.9 million of this decrease is attributable to
a decrease in outside revenue attributable to the September 1995 sale of Denny's
distribution subsidiary, Proficient Food Company ("PFC"), which was sold in
September 1995. In addition, revenue at the Company's Hardee's and Quincy's
restaurants decreased by $13.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively, during
the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period of 1995 due to weak
sales results at these restaurants and adverse winter weather conditions in the
Southeast. Comparable store sales for Denny's and El Pollo Loco increased by
3.3% and 7.9%, respectively, during the first quarter of 1996 over the
comparable 1995 period while Hardee's and Quincy's experienced decreases in
comparable store sales of 7.3% and 4.1%, respectively.
Operating expenses from continuing operations decreased by $76.2
million during the first quarter of 1996 as compared to the same period of 1995
primarily as a result of the decrease in operating revenue described above. Loss
from continuing operations was $27.3 million during the first quarter of 1996 as
compared with $22.4 million during the same period of 1995.

</TABLE>
Denny's revenue decreased by $68.8 million during 1996 quarter as
compared with the 1995 period. This decrease resulted primarily from the sale of
Denny's distribution subsidiary, PFC, during September 1995. During the 1995
quarter, Denny's revenue included $65.9 million of outside sales by PFC. Outside
revenue at Denny's food processing subsidiary, Portion-Trol Foods, Inc.,
decreased by $3.1 million during the 1996 quarter in comparison to the 1995
period. Comparable store sales at Company-owned Denny's increased by 3.3%
reflecting increases in traffic of 2.0% and in average check of 1.3%. Such
increases are attributable to the successful launch of Denny's tiered menu items
during 1996. As a result of a 45-unit net decrease in the number of
Company-owned restaurants at March 31, 1996 in comparison to March 31, 1995,
however, revenue at Denny's restaurant subsidiary increased by only $0.2 million
during the 1996 quarter. The net decrease in restaurant units was due to the
Company's strategy of focusing on its franchise operations and the sale of
restaurants to franchisees, along with selected restaurant closures.
Operating expenses for the 1996 quarter as compared with the 1995
period increased by $0.5 million after deducting $62.3 million in operating
expenses for the 1995 period for the Denny's distribution subsidiary. During the
1995 quarter, operating expenses included gains on the sale of restaurants of
approximately $2.4 million. There were no gains in the first quarter of 1996.
Hardee's:

Revenue $145,074 $158,026 $(12,952)
Operating Expenses 140,515 151,055 (10,540)
Operating Income $ 4,559 $ 6,971 $ (2,412)
</TABLE>
Hardee's revenue decreased by $13.0 million during the 1996 quarter as
compared with the 1995 period principally due to the following: (i) continued
aggressive promotions by competitors within the quick-service segment, (ii)
inclement weather during the 1996 quarter, and (iii) a 19-unit decrease in the
number of restaurants operated at the end of the 1996 quarter in comparison to
the 1995 quarter-end. The first two factors resulted in a 7.3% decrease in
comparable store sales during the first quarter of 1996 as compared with the
comparable period of 1995 reflecting a decline of 8.8% in traffic which was only
partially mitigated by a 1.7% increase in average check.
9
<PAGE>
FORM 10-Q
Operating expenses for the 1996 quarter as compared to the same period
of 1995 decreased by $10.5 million principally due to lower comparable store
sales during the 1996 quarter, the decrease in the number of restaurants and a
reduction in depreciation and amortization expense during the 1996 quarter
following a charge for impaired assets of approximately $23.7 million recorded
during the fourth quarter of 1995.
Quincy's:
<TABLE>

<S> <C> <C> <C>
Revenue $68,536 $72,416 $(3,880)
Operating Expenses 63,277 68,218 (4,941)
Operating Income $ 5,259 $ 4,198 $ 1,061
</TABLE>
Quincy's revenue decreased by $3.9 million during the 1996 quarter from
the comparable period of 1995 principally due to a decrease in comparable store
sales of 4.1% and a 7-unit net decrease in the number of restaurants. Inclement
weather during the first quarter 1996 is also estimated to have adversely
affected revenue. The decrease in comparable store sales reflects a 10.2%
decrease in traffic which was partially offset by an increase in average check
of 6.9%.
Operating expenses for the 1996 quarter as compared to the 1995 period
decreased by $4.9 million principally due to favorable decreases in product
costs of $2.3 million, payroll of $1.1 million, advertising of $0.5 million and
overhead of $0.5 million.

Operating Income $ 2,924 $ 2,030 $ 894
</TABLE>
Revenue at El Pollo Loco decreased by $0.4 million during the 1996
quarter from the comparable 1995 quarter primarily due to the sale of
restaurants to franchisees during 1995 in furtherance of the Company's franchise
strategy resulting in a 21-unit net decrease in the number of Company-owned
restaurants at March 31, 1996 as compared to March 31, 1995. Comparable store
sales for the 1996 quarter increased by 7.9% over the 1995 quarter reflecting
increases in traffic of 7.2% and average check of 0.6%, respectively. The
increase in traffic is primarily attributable to favorable customer responses to
the Pollo Bowl promotion and Foster's Freeze rollout.

<PAGE>
FORM 10-Q
Company-owned restaurants. The decrease in operating expenses was partially
offset by a decrease in gains recognized on the sale of restaurants to
franchisees during the 1996 period of $0.3 million as compared to $0.9 million
for the 1995 period.
Interest and Debt Expense:
Total interest and debt expense from continuing operations and
discontinued operations totaled $57.7 million during the first quarter of 1996
as compared with $63.5 million during the comparable period of 1995 principally
due to the following: (i) a decrease in interest expense of $2.6 million during
the 1996 period related to changes in interest rate exchange agreements, (ii) a
decrease of approximately $1.5 million due to a reduction in principal
outstanding during the 1996 period, and (iii) an increase in interest income of
$1.3 million during 1996 due to increased cash and cash equivalents.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995, the Company had working
capital deficits of $140.2 million and $122.2 million, respectively. The
increase in the deficit between December 31, 1995 and March 31, 1996 is
attributable primarily to a reduction in cash and cash equivalents which has
been used for Company operations and an increase in accrued interest due to the
timing of interest payments. The Company is able to operate with a substantial
working capital deficiency because (i) restaurant 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 related sales.
During April 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with a
syndicate of banks led by co-agents Bankers Trust Company, Chemical Bank, and
Citibank, N.A. for a new three-year $150 million revolving credit facility. The
new credit facility replaces the previously existing credit facility which was
scheduled to expire in June 1996 and will be used for the issuance of letters of
credit and for working capital purposes. The facility includes a sub-limit of
$75 million on working capital borrowings, but no such sub-limit for the
issuance of letters of credit. The Company believes that the new credit facility
will provide an additional source of liquidity and financial flexibility to the
operation and growth of the Company's four restaurant concepts and the
anticipated acquisition of the Coco's and Carrows restaurant chains.
