              INTRODUCTION TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA
 
      The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data have been
derived by the application of pro forma adjustments to the historical financial
statements of The Pantry, Inc. ("The Pantry") for the periods indicated. The
adjustments are described in the accompanying notes.

      On January 28, 1999, The Pantry acquired 100% of the outstanding capital
stock of Miller Enterprises, Inc. ("Miller"), and certain other real estate
assets of certain affiliates of Miller (collectively referred to as "Handy Way
and Affiliates"). Handy Way is a leading operator of convenience stores
operating one hundred twenty-one (121) stores under the name "Handy Way" and
located primarily in central Florida. The purchase price was $82,000,000 in cash
plus certain working capital and other adjustments. The Company intends to
continue to operate the assets of Handy Way and Affiliates as they have
historically been operated. The source of funds for the acquisition was the
Amended Credit Facility (as defined below) and cash on hand.

      On February 25, 1999, The Pantry acquired 60 convenience stores and
related assets from Taylor Oil Company ("ETNA"). The real property on which the
stores are located has been leased or subleased from ETNA or affiliated parties.
Of the 60 leases, 51 are for terms of 15 years with four five-year renewal
options. The remaining nine subleases are for terms ranging from three to 18
years, exclusive of renewal options. The acquired convenience stores are located
in North Carolina and Virginia. The purchase price was approximately $23,000,000
in cash plus certain adjustments. The Company intends to continue to operate the
assets of ETNA as they have historically been operated. The source of funds for
the acquisition was the Company's Amended Credit Facility and cash on hand.

      On March 11, 1999, The Pantry filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1,
as amended on April 2, 1999 (the "Registration Statement"), relating to the
offering of shares of common stock. The unaudited pro forma financial data
reflect estimated net proceeds from the proposed offering of $92.0 million and
the application of such proceeds to (1) repay outstanding indebtedness under our
Amended Credit Facility of $69.4 million and (2) redeem preferred stock of $17.5
million and pay accrued dividends of $5.1 million.

The unaudited pro forma financial data also give effect to the following:

Pro Forma Adjustments:
 
      The unaudited pro forma balance sheet gives effect to the Handy Way and
Affiliates and ETNA acquisitions and the fiscal 1999 financing transactions. The
fiscal 1998 acquisitions, the Dash-N and Express Stop acquisitions and the 1998
financing transactions are reflected in our historical unaudited balance sheet
data as of December 24, 1998.
 
      The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the quarter ended
December 24, 1998 gives effect to the Handy Way and Affiliates, ETNA and other
fiscal 1999 acquisitions, and the fiscal 1999 financing transactions, as if such
events occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1998. The fiscal 1998 acquisitions
and fiscal 1998 financing transactions are included in our historical results of
operations for the quarter.
 
      The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the year ended
September 24, 1998 gives effect to the 1998 acquisitions and disposition, the
1998 financing transactions, the Handy Way and Affiliates, ETNA and other fiscal
1999 acquisitions, and the fiscal 1999 financing, as if such events occurred at
the beginning of fiscal 1998.
 
      The unaudited pro forma financial data are provided for informational
purposes only and do not represent our results of operations or financial
position had the transactions occurred on such dates, nor are they indicative
of our results of operations or financial position as of any future date or
period.
 
      The unaudited pro forma financial data and accompanying notes should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes thereto
and the other financial information included in the Registration Statement. The
financial statements of certain immaterial acquired entities were not audited or
reviewed by independent public accountants, and, therefore, the information
relating to these immaterial acquired entities is generally based on internally
prepared financial statements by the entity.

(b) The 1998 and 1999 acquisitions have been accounted for using the purchase
    method of accounting. Purchase price allocations for the Lil' Champ
    acquisition, the Kwik Mart acquisition, and the Sprint acquisition have
    been finalized. Purchase price allocations for the Quick Stop acquisition,
    the Zip Mart acquisition, the Dash-N acquisition, the Express Stop
    acquisition, the Handy Way and Affiliates acquisition, and the ETNA
    acquisition are based on available information and certain assumptions we
    believe are reasonable. For each acquisition, the purchase price will be
    allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities
    assumed based upon their respective fair values as of the time the
    acquisitions were consummated pending completion of appraisals of property
    and equipment acquired; the excess of the purchase price over the historical
    basis of the net assets acquired has not been allocated in the accompanying
    unaudited pro forma financial data. The actual allocation of the purchase
    cost, however, and the resulting effect on income from operations may differ
    significantly from the pro forma amounts included herein. For purposes of
    the pro forma information, the excess of the purchase price over the
    historical net assets acquired has been considered to be goodwill and other
    intangible assets, pending the completion of appraisals and other purchase
    price allocation adjustments. The following table summarizes the additional
    amortization expense to be incurred in connection with the various 1998 and
    1999 transactions described above:
