ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Comparison of Third Quarter Fiscal 2000 to Third Quarter Fiscal 1999
Net sales for the quarter increased from $82,889,000 in 1999 to $102,701,000 in
2000, an increase of 23.9%. The Company opened 48 new stores during the quarter
and operated a total of 401 locations at the end of the quarter this year
compared to 310 locations at the end of the same period prior year. Comparable
store sales for the quarter decreased 4%. The decline in comparable store sales
for the quarter occurred due to industry wide shortages of high demand products
such as Nintendo Game Boy Color systems and Pokemon Yellow games, as well as an
overall lack of "big hit" title releases for Nintendo 64 and Playstation game
consoles compared to last year. Price reductions on Playstation and Nintendo 64
hardware also adversely impacted sales comparisons. Sales were favorably
impacted by the strong performance of Sega Dreamcast.
Cost of sales for the quarter increased from $58,049,000 in 1999 to $73,212,000
in 2000, an increase of 26.1%. The dollar increase in cost of sales is primarily
due to the growth in sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net sales for the
quarter increased from 70.0% in 1999 to 71.3% in 2000. New product comprised 66%
of sales for the quarter, consistent with prior year, however, sales mix within
new products reflected a shift from higher margin new games to lower margin new
systems.
Operating expenses for the quarter increased from $13,020,000 in 1999 to
$18,502,000 in 2000, an increase of 42.1%. This increase is primarily due to
higher store payroll and occupancy expense which occurred as the Company
operated a greater number of stores than in the same period prior year.
Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased from 15.7% in 1999 to
18.0% in 2000.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter increased from $2,977,000 in
1999 to $3,721,000 in 2000, an increase of 25.0%. This increase occurred to
support the store base which grew to 401 locations from 310 locations at the end
of the same period in the prior year. General and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales in 2000 remained constant with the prior year.
The Company generated operating income for the quarter of $7,266,000 compared to
operating income of $8,843,000 for the same period prior year, a decrease of
17.8%.
Interest income for the quarter increased from $36,000 in 1999 to $40,000 in
2000, an increase of 11.1%.
The Company generated net income before income taxes for the quarter of
$7,266,000 compared to net income before income taxes of $8,867,000 in the same
period prior year, a decrease of 18.1%. As a result, the Company recorded income
tax expense for the quarter of $2,856,000 compared to income tax expense of
$3,472,000 for the same period prior year.
Due to the above factors, the Company generated net income for the quarter of
$4,410,000, or $0.70 per share, compared to net income of $5,395,000, or $0.87
per share, for the same period prior year.
Comparison of Nine Month Period Fiscal 2000 to Nine Month Period Fiscal 1999
Net sales for the nine month period increased from $151,082,000 in 1999 to
$197,872,000 in 2000, an increase of 31.0%. The Company opened 90 new stores and
closed one store during the nine month period and operated a total of 401
locations at the end of the nine month period this year compared to 310
locations at the end of the same period prior year. Comparable store sales for
the nine month period
8 of 12
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
increased 5%. The 31.0% sales increase is primarily due to operating a greater
number of stores compared to prior year and due to strong sales of Sega
Dreamcast product since its September introduction.
Cost of sales for the nine month period increased from $102,350,000 in 1999 to
$138,212,000 in 2000, an increase of 35.0%. The dollar increase in cost of sales
is primarily due to growth in net sales. Cost of sales as a percentage of net
sales increased from 67.7% in 1999 to 69.8% in 2000. This increase is primarily
due to a shift in sales mix from previously played product to lower margin new
product which accounted for 65% of sales in the nine month period compared to
61% one year ago.
Operating expenses for the nine month period increased from $30,341,000 in 1999
to $40,710,000 in 2000, an increase of 34.2%. This increase is primarily due to
higher store payroll and occupancy expense which occurred both as the Company
operated a greater number of stores than in the same period prior year and also
to support the 5% increase in comparable store sales. Operating expenses as a
percentage of net sales increased from 20.1% in 1999 to 20.6% in 2000.
General and administrative expenses for the nine month period increased from
$7,992,000 in 1999 to $10,027,000 in 2000, an increase of 25.5%. This increase
occurred to support the store base which grew to 401 locations from 310
locations at the end of the same period in the prior year. General and
administrative expenses decreased favorably as a percentage of net sales from
5.3% in 1999 to 5.1% in 2000, due to leveraging as net sales increased by 31.0%.
The Company generated operating income for the nine month period of $8,923,000
compared to operating income of $10,399,000 in the same period prior year, a
decrease of 14.2%
Interest income for the nine month period decreased from $247,000 in 1999 to
$142,000 in 2000, a decrease of 42.5%, as the Company maintained lower average
levels of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments.
The Company generated net income before income taxes for the nine month period
of $9,025,000 compared to net income before income taxes of $10,634,000 in the
same period prior year, a decrease of 15.1%. As a result, the Company recorded
income tax expense for the nine month period of $3,545,000 compared to income
tax expense of $4,179,000 for the same period prior year.
Due to the above factors, the Company generated net income for the nine month
period of $5,480,000, or $0.87 per share, compared to net income of $6,455,000,
or $1.01 per share, for the same period prior year.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations
The Company's business is seasonal with a majority of net sales generated in the
third and fourth fiscal quarters, which include the holiday selling season. In
addition to sales seasonality, the Company's quarterly results are also impacted
by factors including new product introductions and the number and timing of new
store openings. As an example, the introduction of Sega Dreamcast led to
seasonally high net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. Growth of the
store base may obscure the impact of seasonal influences. Because of the
seasonality of the Company's business and the factors mentioned above, results
for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
achieved for a full fiscal year. The following table sets forth net sales by
quarter and the number of stores operating at each quarter end for the past
eleven quarters:
Net Sales (in thousands) Number of Stores Open at Quarter End

Third 102,701 82,889 67,036 Third 401 310 249
Fourth 55,591 45,519 Fourth 312 250
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's primary ongoing financing requirements are for new store capital
expenditures and inventory. On an interim basis, the Company's financing
requirements are also impacted by quarterly operating results and seasonal
fluctuations in inventory levels.
During the nine months ended January 2, 2000, the Company generated $19,884,000
of cash from operating activities primarily due to net income, depreciation and
increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company used
$8,627,000 of cash for investing activities, primarily for capital expenditures
related to new stores, store remodels, information systems and the Company's
websites. For the nine months ended December 27, 1998, the Company generated
$17,864,000 of cash from operating activities and used $4,612,000 of cash for
investing activities, primarily for capital expenditures, and $2,972,000 for
financing activities, primarily for stock repurchases.
The Company has a $5,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility with a
commercial bank, seasonally increasing to $20,000,000. The interest rate on
outstanding borrowings under the facility (8.47% for the month ended January 2,
2000) is based upon LIBOR plus 200 basis points. The facility requires the
Company to maintain certain financial ratios and achieve certain operating
results. The Company had no borrowings under the facility at January 2, 2000.
During fiscal 2000, the Company plans to incur capital expenditures of
approximately $9,300,000, of which $8,657,000 has been incurred to date,
primarily for new stores, store remodels, information systems and the Company's
websites. The Company incurred capital expenditures of $6,838,000 in fiscal
1999.
10 of 12
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
The Company believes that cash from operations and funds available under its
revolving credit facility will provide sufficient funds for financing planned
store openings, working capital needs and other capital expenditures for at
least 12 months.
YEAR 2000 MATTERS
Prior to January 2000, the Y2K project team had evaluated the Company's business
and operational systems to ensure Y2K readiness. As a result, we believe that
all mission critical software and hardware was assessed, and if necessary,
remedied to be Y2K ready. All mission critical software and hardware has
continued to function beyond January 1, 2000 without any business interruption.
As the year 2000 progresses, however, we may experience problems associated with
the year 2000 that have not yet been discovered. Our Y2K project team will
continue to monitor and test systems as necessary and will remain in place
through the end of the fiscal year, April 2, 2000.
As of January 2, 2000, the Company had incurred external costs of less than
$100,000 related to year 2000 readiness, including testing, analysis and
purchase of hardware and software upgrades. The Company believes this to be the
overall cost of the project, however, there can be no assurance that final costs
will not exceed this level.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's operations are not currently subject to market risks relating to
interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices or other
market price risks of a material nature.
