Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency for the Company's United Kingdom subsidiary and
Australian subsidiary is the British pound sterling and Australian dollar,
respectively. The translation from British pound sterling and Australian dollars
in to U.S. dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current
exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenue and expense
accounts using a weighted average exchange rate during the period. The gains or
losses resulting from such translation are included in stockholders' equity.
Equity transactions denominated in British pound sterling and Australian dollars
have been translated into U.S. dollars using the effective rate of exchange at
date of issuance.

[C] Due To Related Parties
Woodland Limited Partnership ["Woodland"] is a partnership controlled by
members of Mr. Colin Halpern's family. Mr. Halpern is the President and
Chairman of the Board of the Company. As of September 27, 1998, the balance
due to Woodland for funds advanced to the Company was $1,519,912 which
includes accrued interest payable of $293,787. This note has been extended
to December 1998. During 1997, funds were advanced and repayments were made
to Woodland of approximately $300,000.
In June 1996, as partial consideration for the conversion of short-term
advances to a note payable loan, the Company issued a common stock purchase
warrant entitling Woodland to purchase 166,667 shares of the Company's
common stock at $7.50 per share for a period of 24 months commencing on the
date of the loan. The warrants will be redeemable at $.01 per share if the
closing bid price of the Company's common stock exceeds $30 for 10
consecutive trading days ending within five days of the notice of
redemption. In December 1996, Woodland agreed to extend the note due until
June 1998 and the shares of the Company's common stock at $5.25 per share
for a term expiring December 31, 1999. Woodland agreed to extend the note
due until September 1998. As of December 29, 1996, the note was recorded net
of the fair value of these stock warrants at $694,556. Interest expense
amortized on purchase warrants for the 52 week period ended December 28,
1997 is $130,000. The warrants were cancelled with conversion of the notes
to equity.
In March 1997, the Company agreed with Woodland Limited Partnership to
convert $750,000 of long-term debt to 750,000 shares of $1.00 par value
Series A convertible preferred shares. On September 25, 1997, Woodland
agreed to exchange its $1.00 par value Series A convertible preferred shares
to 375,000 $2.00 par value Series B non-convertible preferred shares.
On September 25, 1997, Woodland agreed to convert an additional $700,000 of
notes payable into 350,000 $2.00 par value Series B non-convertible
preferred shares. The agreed dividend is 8% and is cumulative. The preferred
shares hold the sale voting rights as the common shares. The warrants issued
in connection with notes payable were valued at $145,522 and was accounted
for as a discount to the notes payable to Woodland. At December 28, 1997,
the Company amortized $116,000 as interest expense.
At December 28, 1997, Woodland owns approximately 36% of the Company's
outstanding common stock.

<PAGE>
Mr. Halpern also is the Chairman of the Board of International Franchise
Systems, Inc. ["IFS"]. At December 31, 1995, IFS had advanced funds to the
Company in the amount of $183,635. During 1996, the entire amount was
repaid. IFS charges a management fee to the Company for administration
services. For the years ended December 28, 1997 and December 29,1996, this
management fee was $45,000 and $25,000, respectively, and those amounts were
charged to operations. IFS and one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries sublease
a facility to the Company in the United Kingdom. For the year ended December
28, 1997, the Company paid $133,449 for this facility. During the fifty-two
week period ended December 31, 1995, IFS transferred motor vehicles under
capital lease at the remaining net lease value to the Company. These motor
vehicles were returned to the leasing company upon cancellation of the lease
and the related asset and liability were written off during 1996.
The Company has advanced funds to and paid various expenses on behalf of Mr.
Halpern. During 1996, the total amount advanced to Mr. Halpern was $15,148
with repayments of $35,000. At December 28, 1997, the total amount due to
the Company is $31,149. This amount is being offset through reimbursements
due to Mr. Halpern.
Mr. Halpern's son is an attorney with a law firm that provides legal
services to the Company. Legal expense incurred with this firm for the
fifty-two weeks ended December 28, 1997 was $70,000. At December 28, 1997
there was no balance due and owing by the Company to this firm.
The Chief Financial Officer of the Company is also the Chief Financial
Officer of IFS. The charge for his services was $140,000 and is allocated
between the two companies.
[D] Divestitures
On December 19, 1997, the Company sold its rights to Chili's Restaurants in
Australia and New Zealand to Brinker International, Inc. ("Brinker"). The
$2.68 million purchase price was before the payment of liabilities of the
Australian operation which are estimated to be approximately $700,000. The
Company agreed to use the remaining proceeds to repay the Brinker short term
loan.
On December 16, 1997, the Company merged its UK subsidiary, Restaurant House
Ltd. with the Celebrated Group Plc.
[E] Stock Transactions
On January 23, 1997, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of the 1.6 million
unissued shares of stock sold under a Reg S share offering. As of March 29,
1998, the Company had not issued the remaining 600,000 shares of stock. The
Company is in dispute with the stock subscriber regarding the price to be
paid. For financial reporting purposes, the Company has calculated the
earnings per share with the assumption that the shares had been issued.
In March 1997, the Company agreed with Woodland Limited Partnership to
convert $750,000 of long-term debt to 750,000 shares of $1.00 par value
Series A convertible preferred shares.
On September 25, 1997, Woodland agreed to exchange its $1.00 par value
Series A convertible preferred shares to 375,000 $2.00 par value Series B
non-convertible preferred shares. On September 25, 1997, Woodland agreed to
convert an additional $700,000 of notes payable into 350,000 $2.00 par value
Series B non-convertible preferred shares. The agreed dividend is 8% and is
cumulative. The preferred shares hold the sale voting rights as the common
shares. The warrants issued in connection with notes payable were valued at
$145,522 and was accounted for as a discount to the notes payable to
Woodland. At December 28, 1997, the Company amortized $116,000 as interest
expense.
On November 26, 1997, the Company effected a three-for-one reverse stock
split of its common stock. As a result of the split, there are 3,420,780
shares of common stock outstanding.
Stock Transactions of Subsidiary
In September 1996, Red Hot Pacific issued 53 shares of common stock to
Brinker in connection with a guaranty agreement valued at $1.00.
The above issuance reduced Red Hot ownership of Red Hot Pacific from 100% to
95%. As a result of this stock transaction and related liability for the
guaranty agreement Red Hot reduced its additional paid-in-capital by $2,497
in consolidation.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Result
of Operations
Overview -
Red Hot Concepts was incorporated in the state of Delaware on June 14, 1994. Red
Hot Concepts and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") are
owned 36% by Woodland Partnership Ltd. and the remaining shares are publicly
held. The Company was formed to establish and develop the Chili's Grill & Bar
restaurant concept franchised by Brinker International Inc. ("Brinker") outside
the United States.
At December 31, 1997, the Company no longer had the exclusive rights to operate
Chili's restaurants in the United Kingdom or Australia. From November 1995 until
December 18, 1997, the Company owned the Chili's concept development rights for
Australia and New Zealand. During 1997, the Company operated three Chili's
restaurants in Australia (two in suburban Sydney and one in suburban Melbourne).
However, on December 18, 1997, the Company sold its Australian and New Zealand
operations back to Chili's franchisor, Brinker International, for $2.68 million.
From July 1994 until December 15, 1997, the Company owned the UK rights to the
Chili's concept. During 1997, the Company operated two Chili's restaurants in
the UK (one in Canary Wharf and one in Cambridge). On December 15, 1997, the
Company merged its UK operations into the Celebrated Group Plc ("Celebrated").
The Company's exclusive development rights for Chili's restaurants in the UK
transferred to Celebrated in the merger.
Celebrated is publicly traded on the Alternative Index Market (AIM) of the
London Stock Exchange. As part of the merger, Red Hot Concepts acquired 46% of
Celebrated's outstanding stock and an option to acquire a 50% ownership
interest. In early 1998, a principal officer and a director of the Company
assumed comparable roles at Celebrated, in addition to retaining their positions
with the Company.
Results of Operations -
The Company realized a net loss of $1,061,851 for the thirty-nine weeks ending
September 27, 1998 which compares to a net loss of $1,110,149 for the same
period in 1997. The results for operations in 1997 have been adjusted to
eliminate the trading results of the UK and Australia. The net loss from 1997 to
1998 was reduced significantly reflecting the Company's effort to minimize
expenses. The Company included the net loss of $674,480, its share of the loss
experienced by Celebrated Group for the thirty nine weeks ended September 27,
1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's negative working capital as of September 27, 1998 was
approximately $0.3 million as compared to a negative working capital of $0.4
million as of December 28, 1997. Total current assets were at $0.2 million as of
September 27, 1998. Current liabilities reduced to $0.5 million from December
28, 1997.
The following chart represents the net funds raised and/or used in operating,
financing and investment activities for both periods.

During the thirteen week period ended September 27, 1998, the Company used

approximately $387,419. The Company's accounts payable was reduced by
approximately $334,285.
Cash generated by financing activities for the year was approximately $444,800,
which include the proceeds from a loan from related parties of $444,800.

<PAGE>
The Company has improved short term liquidity through a number of different
steps including the reduction of administrative expenses and headcount and the
rescheduling of payment terms on the advances from Woodland Limited Partnership.
The Company believes that additional capital or borrowing will be necessary to
finance working capital in the short-term. The Company does not anticipate that
Celebrated will pay dividends in 1998. The Company does not currently have any
commitments to secure financing and there is no assurance that the Company will
be able to secure financing in the future and that even if the Company is able
to obtain financing, such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the
Company. If the Company's plans change, or if the assumptions or estimates prove
to be inaccurate, of if the Company is unable to raise more funds, the Company
will reduce its holdings in Celebrated.
Impact of Inflation
Inflation is not expected to have a material effect on the company's operations.
