MONRO MUFFLER BRAKE, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 - Stock Repurchase
-------------------------
In November 1999, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase
program initially authorizing the Company to purchase up to 300,000 shares of
its common stock at market prices. In May 2000, the Board of Directors approved
an increase of 120,000 shares, bringing the total authorization to 420,000
shares. The amount and timing of any purchase will depend upon a number of
factors, including the price and availability of the Company's shares and
general market conditions. The Company's purchases of common stock are recorded
as "Treasury Stock" and result in a reduction of "Shareholders' equity". At June
30, 2000, the Company had purchased 125,600 shares.
Note 2 - Acquisition of Speedy Stores
-------------------------------------
In September 1998, the Company completed the acquisition of 189
company-operated and 14 dealer-operated Speedy stores, all located in the United
States, from SMK Speedy International Inc. of Toronto Canada. Speedy stores
provide automotive repair services, specializing in undercar care, in 11 states
located primarily in the northeast. The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase, and accordingly, the operating results of Speedy have been included in
the Company's consolidated financial statements since the date of the
acquisition.
Approximately $51 million was borrowed under a new $135 million secured
credit facility to pay the all-cash purchase price, with additional amounts
borrowed under the facility for the closing of underperforming or redundant
Speedy stores, capital expenditures at remaining Speedy stores and transaction
expenses.
The excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of net
assets acquired of approximately $9.4 million is being amortized on a
straight-line basis over 20 years.
In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded a reserve for
accrued restructuring costs of approximately $7.8 million. This reserve relates
to costs associated with the closing of 41 poorly performing or duplicative
Speedy stores, and includes charges for rent and real estate taxes (net of
anticipated sublease income), the write down of assets to their fair market
value, and net losses experienced by these stores through their closure date.
Note 3 - Inventories
--------------------
The Company's inventories consist of automotive parts and tires.
Substantially all merchandise inventories are valued under the last-in,
first-out (LIFO) method. Under the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, these
inventories would have been $162,000 and $124,000 higher at June 30, 2000 and
March 31, 2000, respectively. The FIFO value of inventory approximates the
current replacement cost.
Note 4 - Cash and Equivalents
-----------------------------
The Company's policy is to invest cash in excess of operating
requirements in income producing investments. Cash equivalents of $1,205,000 at
June 30, 2000 and $507,000 at March 31, 2000 include money market accounts which
have maturities of three months or less.

FIRST QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999
Sales were $60.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 compared
with $61.0 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1999. The sales decrease of $.3
million, or .5%, was due to a decrease in comparable store sales of .3%, and a
decrease of $1.3 million related to stores closed during fiscal 2000. These
decreases were partially offset by an increase in sales of new stores of
approximately $1.2 million. At June 30, 2000, the Company had 512
company-operated stores compared to 517 at June 30, 1999.
Gross profit for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was $25.9 million or
42.6% of sales compared with $25.6 million or 42.0% of sales for the quarter
ended June 30, 1999. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales is
primarily attributable to a decrease in technician labor due to improved
productivity and control. Additionally, outside purchases declined due to better
store execution involving increased transfers between stores, as well as more
effective inventory management including higher stocking levels and improved mix
at the stores.
Operating, selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter
ended June 30, 2000 decreased by $.6 million to $18.4 million from the quarter
ended June 30, 1999, and decreased to 30.4% of sales compared to 31.3% in the
same quarter of the prior year. Benefit costs have decreased as a percent of
sales due to reduced costs in the areas of health care and workers compensation
against relatively flat sales. Additionally, cooperative advertising income
increased as a result of improved purchasing agreements with the Company's major
parts suppliers.
Operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 of approximately
$7.4 million increased 14.2% over operating income for the quarter ended June
30, 1999, and increased as a percentage of sales from 10.7% to 12.2% for the
same periods.
Net interest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 decreased by
approximately $.1 million compared to the comparable period in the prior year,
and decreased from 2.9% to 2.6% as a percentage of sales for the same periods.
The weighted average interest rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was
approximately .6% higher than the rate for the quarter ended June 30, 1999.
However, the weighted average debt outstanding decreased by approximately $10.1
million, resulting in a slight decrease in expense between the two quarters.
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 of $3.4 million
increased 28.0% over net income for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 due to the
factors discussed above.
Interim Period Reporting
The data included in this report are unaudited and are subject to
year-end adjustments; however, in the opinion of management, all known
adjustments (which consist only of normal recurring adjustments) have been made
to present fairly the Company's operating results for the unaudited periods. The
results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the fiscal year.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Capital Resources
In fiscal year 2001, the Company's primary capital requirement has been
the funding of its new store expansion program and the upgrading of facilities
and systems in existing stores. For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company
spent $2.5 million for equipment and new store construction. Funds were provided
primarily by cash flow from operations. Management believes that the Company has
sufficient resources available (including cash and equivalents, net cash flow
from operations and bank financing) to expand its business as currently planned
for the next several years.
-10-
<PAGE> 11
Liquidity
Concurrent with the closing of the Speedy acquisition in September
1998, the Company obtained a new $135 million secured credit facility from a
syndication of lenders led by The Chase Manhattan Bank. Approximately $55
million was borrowed under this facility to pay the all-cash purchase price,
including transaction expenses of approximately $4 million. In addition, the
Company refinanced approximately $35 million of indebtedness through the new
credit facility, with the balance of the facility available for future working
capital needs. More specifically, the new financing structure consists of a $25
million term loan (of which $20 million was outstanding at June 30, 2000), a $75
million Revolving Credit facility (of which approximately $32 million was
outstanding at June 30, 2000), and synthetic lease (off-balance sheet) financing
for a significant portion of the Speedy real estate, totaling $35 million (of
which approximately $33 million was outstanding at June 30, 2000). The loans
bear interest at the prime rate or other LIBOR-based rate options tied to the
Company's financial performance. The Company must also pay a facility fee on the
unused portion of the commitment.
The credit facility has a five-year term. Interest only is payable
monthly on the Revolving Credit and synthetic lease borrowings throughout the
term. In addition to monthly interest payments, the $25 million term loan
requires quarterly principal payments. Principal payments totalling $5 million
have been paid through June 30, 2000.
The term loan and Revolving Credit facility are secured by all accounts
receivable, inventory and other personal property. The Company has also entered
into a negative pledge agreement not to encumber any real property, with certain
permissible exceptions. The synthetic lease is secured by the real property to
which it relates.
Certain of the Company's stores are financed by mortgages currently
bearing interest at LIBOR plus 100 basis points.
The Company has financed its office/warehouse facility via a 10 year
mortgage with a current balance of $2.3 million, amortizable over 20 years, and
an eight year term loan with a balance of $.3 million.
Certain of the Company's long-term debt agreements require, among other
things, the maintenance of specified interest and rent coverage ratios and
amounts of tangible net worth. They also contain restrictions on cash dividend
payments.
The Company enters into interest rate hedge agreements which involve
the exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payments periodically over the
life of the agreement without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts.
The differential to be paid or received is accrued as interest rates change and
is recognized over the life of the agreements as an adjustment to interest
expense.
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
On June 17, 1998 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 ("SFAS 133"), "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" effective for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000. This statement standardizes the accounting for
derivatives and hedging activities and requires that all derivatives be
recognized in the statement of financial position as either assets or
liabilities at fair value. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not
meet the hedge accounting criteria are to be reported in earnings. Adoption of
this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
