Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. and Subsidiaries
(1) Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting primarily of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Due to the seasonal nature of the Company’s business, the results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the entire year. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended January 29, 2005. Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements of prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.
(2) Restatement
As more fully discussed in the fiscal 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 15, 2005, the Company restated its balance sheets and statements of operations and cash flows for certain periods including as of, and for the thirteen weeks ended May 1, 2004, to correct its lease accounting for rent holidays, normal tenant improvements, construction costs, and sale-leaseback transactions in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulletin No. 85-3, “Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases,” Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction,” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 98, “Accounting for Leases.”
The following is a summary of the effects of the restatement on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of, and for the quarter ended, May 1, 2004 (in thousands):

(3) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has options outstanding under four stock option plans: the Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. Amended and Restated 1991 Stock Incentive Plan (the “1991 Plan”), the Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Option Plan (the “1993 Plan”), the Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan (the “1997 Plan”) and the Amended and Restated Discounted Stock Option Plan for Directors (the “Directors’ Plan”).
The Company accounts for its stock option plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net (loss) earnings, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. However, expense is recorded in connection with stock options issued under the Directors’ Plan to non-employee directors and this expense has been immaterial. Interim pro forma information regarding net (loss) income and (loss) earnings per share is required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 (“SFAS 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure — an Amendment of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 123,” which requires that the information be determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options granted under the fair value method of that statement. The following table illustrates the effect on net (loss) earnings and (loss) earnings per common share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 148 to stock-based employee compensation (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Table of Contents
The weighted-average fair value of each stock option included in the preceding pro forma amounts was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is amortized over the vesting period of the underlying options.
On March 15, 2005, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, upon recommendation of the Board’s Compensation Committee, approved the accelerated vesting of all unvested and “out-of-the-money” options held by current employees, officers and directors (the “Acceleration”). The accelerated options had been granted under the Company’s Amended and Restated 1993 Stock Option Plan and Amended and Restated 1997 Stock Option Plan (collectively, the “Plans”). The unvested options affected by the acceleration are those which had exercise prices of greater than $9.60 per share, the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ National Market on March 15, 2005, the effective date of the Acceleration. Pursuant to the Acceleration, options granted under the Plans to purchase approximately 435,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that would otherwise have vested at various times within the next five years became fully vested, of which 13,000 were held by executive officers and 19,200 where held by directors. The accelerated options have exercise prices ranging from $9.91 to $12.74. No other terms of the accelerated options were changed. The decision to initiate the Acceleration under the Plans, which the Company believes to be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders, was made primarily to reduce compensation expense that might be recorded in future periods following the Company’s adoption on January 29, 2006 (the first day of fiscal 2006) of FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ® (“SFAS 123®”), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS 123® will require the Company to record compensation expense equal to the fair value of all equity-based compensation over the vesting period of each such award. The Company’s aggregate pro forma after tax compensation expense related to the Acceleration was approximately $1.4 million after taxes in the first quarter of 2005. The Company expects that the adoption of this SFAS 123® in fiscal 2006 will have a material effect on its statement of operations for fiscal 2006.
(4) Credit arrangements
In May 2001, the Company entered into a five-year, $130,000,000 syndicated revolving loan and security agreement that provides for cash borrowings for general corporate purposes, including a $95,000,000 sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under this credit facility are limited by collateral formulas, based principally upon the Company’s eligible inventories. The credit facility is secured primarily by the Company’s inventories, receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The borrowing base was $167,092,000 at April 30, 2005, which excludes cash and most of cash equivalents and only gives credit for specified percentages of inventory and receivables. The amount available to draw under the credit facility at April 30, 2005 was approximately $112,592,000. If availability (as calculated pursuant to the credit facility) falls below $25,000,000, the Company would be required, for a period of time, to comply with a financial covenant requiring it to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth based on formulas. The Company’s availability did not fall below $25,000,000 during the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2005, or May 1, 2004, and therefore the Company was not required to comply with this financial covenant. The credit facility also contains certain discretionary provisions that enable the lender to reduce availability. The credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin or the prime rate. In June 2003, the credit facility was amended to permit cash dividends in any fiscal year on the common stock in an amount not to exceed (i) $3,500,000 (but not to exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate during the remaining term of the credit facility) plus (ii) 50% of the Company’s consolidated net income for the immediately preceding fiscal year. At April 30, 2005, the Company had no borrowings outstanding and had letters of credit outstanding of $17,369,000. Of these letters outstanding, $15,045,000 represented merchandise that had not yet been shipped to the Company and therefore had not yet been reflected in accounts payable. These letters of credit generally have terms of less than one year and are primarily used to facilitate the purchase of import merchandise.
(5) Contingencies
Class Action Proceeding
In February 1999, a lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia and was served on the Company and Robert M. Goodfriend, its Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, by 20 named plaintiffs, generally alleging that the Company discriminated against a class of African-American employees at its retail stores through the use of discriminatory selection and compensation procedures and by maintaining unequal terms and conditions of employment. The plaintiffs further alleged that the Company maintained a racially hostile working environment.
8
Table of Contents
On February 28, 2003, a proposed Consent Decree was filed with the District Court for its preliminary approval. The proposed Consent Decree sets forth the proposed settlement of the class action race discrimination lawsuit. Ultimately, class action certification was sought in the lawsuit only with respect to alleged discrimination in promotion to management positions and the proposed Consent Decree is limited to such claims. Generally, the proposed settlement provides for a payment by the Company in the aggregate amount of $3.2 million to the class members (including the named plaintiffs) and their counsel, as well as the Company’s implementation of certain policies, practices and procedures regarding, among other things, training of employees. The Company’s employer liability insurance underwriter has funded $3.1 million of such payment to a third-party administrator. The proposed Consent Decree explicitly provides that it is not an admission of liability by the Company and the Company continues to deny all of the allegations. On April 30, 2003, the District Court granted preliminary approval of the proposed Consent Decree, and a hearing was held on June 30, 2003, regarding the adequacy and fairness of the proposed settlement. On March 3, 2004, the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia issued an Order granting final approval of the Consent Decree. On or about February 23, 2004, a purported class member filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit (the “Eleventh Circuit”), alleging, among other things, misconduct on the part of the District Court and the plaintiff’s/appellant’s counsel; the Eleventh Circuit dismissed this appeal on March 5, 2004. On or about March 12, 2004, a Motion to set aside the dismissal was filed with the Eleventh Circuit. On May 28, 2004, the Eleventh Circuit dismissed all appeals regarding this matter. In August 2004, a purported class member filed a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari with the United States Supreme Court regarding the Eleventh Circuit’s dismissal of all appeals on this matter; on January 20, 2005, the United States Supreme Court denied the Petition for a Writ of Certiorari. Pursuant to the terms of the March 3, 2004, Order, the District Court will maintain jurisdiction of this matter until July 2006 to monitor the parities’ compliance with the Consent Decree.
Other Matters
In addition, the Company is a party to various other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company has various insurance policies in place in the event of unfavorable outcomes from such proceedings. The insurance companies’ level of, and willingness to, support their coverage could vary depending upon the circumstances of each particular case. As such, there can be no assurance as to the level of support available from insurance policies. The Company does not currently believe that the ultimate outcome of all such pending legal proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
(6) Intangible Assets
The Company purchased the Duck Head trademarks and four related licenses from TSI Brands Inc., and its parent corporation, Tropical Sportswear Int’l Corporation during fiscal 2003 and total acquisition costs were $4,103,000. In accordance with FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” the Company performed a valuation of the trademarks during fiscal 2004 and determined that the asset has an indefinite life and no impairment charge was necessary. Intangible assets are included within other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
(7) New Accounting Pronouncement
On April 14, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that the required effective date for adopting Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ®, “Share-Based Payment,” has been deferred to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005, instead of an effective date of interim periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company will be required to adopt this statement on January 29, 2006, the first day of fiscal 2006.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc.
Knoxville, Tennessee:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets of Goody’s Family Clothing, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the thirteen week periods ended April 30, 2005 and May 1, 2004. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of January 29, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated April 15, 2005, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 29, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
As discussed in Note 2, the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 1, 2004 and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the thirteen week period ended May 1, 2004 have been restated.

Overview
Goody’s is a retailer of moderately priced family apparel, with its stores located in small to midsized markets in the Southeast, Midwest and Southwest regions of the United States that have demographic characteristics consistent with its targeted customer. The Company’s objective is to be a leading retailer of apparel for the entire family in each of the markets it serves. In keeping with this objective, Goody’s offers a broad selection of current-season, nationally recognized brands for brand-conscious shoppers, as well as exclusive brands for those shoppers who seek quality apparel at value prices. All of Goody’s stores are leased, average approximately 27,700 gross square feet, and are generally located in strip shopping centers. The Company manages its core functions, such as purchasing, pricing, marketing and advertising, distribution, planning and allocation, real estate, finance, and information systems, from its centrally located corporate office in Knoxville, Tennessee. The Company has two distribution centers, one each in Knoxville, Tennessee and Russellville, Arkansas.
Outlook
The Company has revised its previously announced business plan for fiscal 2005. Following are the revised components for fiscal 2005, versus previous guidance: (i) the opening of 29 new stores, versus 35 new stores; and (ii) the relocating or remodeling of approximately 10 stores, versus 15 stores. Actual results may vary from this revised guidance.
The Company opened 2 new stores and 1 relocated store on May 5, 2005, and expects to open 20 additional stores and relocate or remodel up to 7 stores during the remainder of fiscal 2005. Capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 2005 are currently expected to be approximately $39,000,000, primarily related to new and remodeled store costs, management information systems and general corporate purposes. Total capital expenditures for fiscal 2005 are currently expected to be approximately $59,000,000.
The Company’s primary needs for capital resources are for the purchase of store inventories, capital expenditures and for normal operating purposes. Management believes that its existing working capital, together with anticipated cash flows from operations, including credit terms from vendors and factors, and the borrowings available under the credit facility will be sufficient to meet the Company’s operating and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.
On March 16, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per share to shareholders of record on June 1, 2005, payable on June 15, 2005. The Company anticipates paying regular, quarterly cash dividends in the future, subject to the Company’s earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, general economic and business conditions, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. The Company’s credit facility was amended to permit such dividends within certain prescribed limitations, as described above.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company’s accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates that affect the amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities reported. The critical accounting matters that are very important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require some of management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments are described in detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2005. The accounting for these matters involves forming estimates based on current facts, circumstances and assumptions which, in management’s judgment, could change in a manner that would materially affect management’s future estimates with respect to such matters and, accordingly, could cause future reported financial condition and results of operations to differ materially from financial results reported based on management’s current estimates. There have been no material changes in the critical accounting policies during the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2005.

Thirteen Weeks Ended April 30, 2005 Compared with Thirteen Weeks Ended May 1, 2004
Overview. During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company opened seven new stores, relocated two stores and closed three stores, bringing the total number of stores in operation at April 30, 2005 to 361, compared with 340 at May 1, 2004. During the first quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company opened five new stores, relocated one store and remodeled five stores. The Company incurred a net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 of $1,778,000, or 0.6% of sales, compared with net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 of $8,071,000, or 2.7% of sales.
Sales.Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 were $292,705,000, a 3.4% decrease from the $302,878,000 in sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The decrease of $10,173,000 consisted primarily of a $13,488,000 increase in additional net sales from new stores, transition stores and sales from stores that were subsequently closed, offset by a $23,966,000 decrease in comparable store sales. Comparable store sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 decreased 8.1% compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2004. Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 were negatively affected, in part, by unseasonably cool and wet weather patterns during portions of the quarter. Sales of private-label and exclusive brand merchandise increased to approximately 38% of total merchandise sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 from 34% of total merchandise sales for the same period in the prior year.
Gross profit.Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 was $82,963,000 or 28.4% of sales, a $10,440,000 decrease from the $93,403,000 in gross profit, or 30.9% of sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2004. Merchandise margins in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 decreased 1.7% as a percent of sales from the first quarter of fiscal 2004, due in part to increased promotional activity in an effort to stimulate sales and lower levels of sales of spring seasonal merchandise, much of which is private-label merchandise, which carries the highest gross margins in the Company. Occupancy costs increased 0.8% due largely to the decrease in comparable store sales and the resulting lack of leverage as a percentage of sales, as well as higher rent costs associated with new and relocated stores.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses.SG&A expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 were $86,370,000, or 29.5% of sales, an increase of $5,646,000 from $80,724,000, or 26.7% of sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2004. SG&A expenses increased by 2.8%, as a percent of sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2004. SG&A expense dollars increased primarily due to costs associated with the greater number of stores, including payroll and advertising. The SG&A expense rate increase, as a percentage of sales, was due largely to the decrease in comparable store sales and the resulting lack of leverage. The components of the SG&A expense rate increase were primarily (i) a 1.4% increase in payroll expense, (ii) a 0.5% increase in advertising expenses, (iii) a 0.2% increase in depreciation, (iv) a 0.2% increase in utilities expense, and (v) a 0.5% increase in all other SG&A expenses.

Income taxes.The benefit for income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 was $1,236,000, for an effective tax rate of 41.00% of loss before income taxes, compared with a provision for income taxes of $4,792,000, for an effective tax rate of 37.25% of earnings before income taxes, for the first quarter of fiscal 2004.The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a shift in the composition of earnings among various entities of the Company, changes in state tax laws and certain disallowed deductions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Financial Position.The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, including credit terms from vendors and factors, and borrowings under its credit facility discussed below. At April 30, 2005, January 29, 2005, and May 1, 2004, the Company’s working capital was $130,945,000, $144,091,000 and $140,592,000, respectively.
The $9,647,000 decrease in working capital from May 1, 2004 to April 30, 2005, consisted primarily of (i) a $20,485,000 net change in property and equipment, (ii) dividends paid of $3,619,000, (iii) repurchases of common stock of $1,847,000, offset by (iv) increases in long-term liabilities of $11,038,000, (v) $5,804,000 in earnings, and (vi) $1,173,000 from the issuance of common stock through the exercise of stock options.
The $13,146,000 decrease in working capital from January 29, 2005 to April 30, 2005, consisted primarily of (i) a $12,518,000 net change in property and equipment, (ii) $1,778,000 in net loss, (iii) dividends paid of $987,000, offset by (iv) increases in long-term liabilities of $2,180,000, and (v) $595,000 from the issuance of common stock through the exercise of stock options.
In May 2001, the Company entered into a five-year, $130,000,000 syndicated revolving loan and security agreement that provides for cash borrowings for general corporate purposes, including a $95,000,000 sub-facility for the issuance of letters of credit. Borrowings under this credit facility are limited by collateral formulas, based principally upon the Company’s eligible inventories. The credit facility is secured primarily by the Company’s inventories, receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The borrowing base was $167,092,000 at April 30, 2005, which excludes cash and most of cash equivalents and only gives credit for specified percentages of inventory and receivables. The amount available to draw under the credit facility at April 30, 2005, was approximately $112,592,000. If availability (as calculated pursuant to the credit facility) falls below $25,000,000, the Company would be required, for a period of time, to comply with a financial covenant requiring it to maintain minimum levels of tangible net worth based on formulas. The credit facility also contains certain discretionary provisions that enable the lender to reduce availability. The credit facility bears interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin or the prime rate. In June 2003, the credit facility was amended to permit cash dividends in any fiscal year on the common stock in an amount not to exceed (i) $3,500,000 (but not to exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate during the remaining term of the credit facility) plus (ii) 50% of the Company’s consolidated net income for the immediately preceding fiscal year.
There were no cash borrowings during the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2005 or May 1, 2004, or during fiscal 2004. Letters of credit outstanding averaged $21,765,000 during the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2005, compared with $35,913,000 during the thirteen weeks ended May 1, 2004. The highest balance of letters of credit outstanding during the thirteen weeks ended April 30, 2005, was $39,735,000 in February 2005 compared with $43,269,000 in February 2004 during the thirteen weeks ended May 1, 2004. The Company had letters of credit outstanding of $17,369,000, $39,735,000 and $31,944,000 at April 30, 2005, January 29, 2005 and May 1, 2004, respectively. Of these letters outstanding, $15,045,000, $23,122,000 and $24,386,000, at April 30, 2005, January 29, 2005 and May 1, 2004, respectively, represented merchandise that had not yet been shipped to the Company and therefore had not yet been reflected in accounts payable. The Company renegotiated its business arrangement with its primary import agent in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, and therein eliminated the need for letters of credit with such agent. As a result, the Company expects its need for letters of credit in fiscal 2005 to be substantially less than historical amounts.

Item 3. — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
The Company has no material investments or risks in market risk sensitive instruments.
Item 4. — Controls and Procedures
| (a) | Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. |
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed or submitted by it under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in such reports is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Each fiscal quarter, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, the Company carries out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon the foregoing, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, along with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, concluded that, as of April 30, 2005, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company’s Exchange Act reports.
| (b) | Changes in internal control over financial reporting. |
During the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2005, there has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except for the previously reported correction in its fiscal 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K of its process for evaluating accounting for rent holidays, normal tenant improvements, construction costs, and sale-leaseback transactions by a more thorough review of Financial Accounting Standards Board Technical Bulletin No. 85-3, “Accounting for Operating Leases with Scheduled Rent Increases,” Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 97-10, “The Effect of Lessee Involvement in Asset Construction,” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 98, “Accounting for Leases.” Management will continue to monitor developments in generally accepted accounting principles and changes in the Company’s business to reduce the risk of classification errors in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
