CONTINGENCIES ------------- The Company is exposed to a number of asserted and unasserted potential claims. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters is not presently expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company's financial position and results of operations. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ RESULTS OF OPERATIONS LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ----------------------------------------------------- LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- The Company's primary need for capital is to finance new store merchandise inventories, as well as the construction of new stores. During the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2001, the Company generated cash totaling $840,000. The primary sources and uses of cash during the period were; cash flow from non-cash depreciation expenses ($1,230,000), a decrease in receivables ($944,000), a decrease in prepaid income taxes ($702,000), as well as an increase in accounts payable ($4,059,000) used to offset the cost of inventory purchases ($2,867,000), payment of accrued liabilities and compensation ($1,980,000), and to fund the Company's new store expansion and remodeling program ($ 861,000). 8 The Company plans to open approximately ten to fifteen new stores during 2001. All new stores are expected to be opened during the summer and fall of 2001. The Company renovated one existing store in the first quarter. After deducting a construction allowance paid to the Company by its landlords, the Company has spent $861,000 through March 31, 2001 and expects to spend an additional three to four million dollars in 2001, for both new store and existing store construction and remodeling. Management believes that the Company's internally generated cash flows will be sufficient to meet anticipated requirements for operations and planned expansion during Fiscal 2001. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- For the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2001, the benefit of higher net sales, including a 4% increase in comparative store sales and improved gross margins, was more than offset by increased selling, general and administrative expenses, resulting in a decrease in operating income in Fiscal 2001, as compared to Fiscal 2000. Net income also includes an after-tax gain of approximately $964,000 or $.10 per share for the settlement of a trademark litigation claim. Certain financial data concerning the Company's results of operations for the thirteen week periods ended March 31, 2001 and April 1, 2000, expressed as a percentage of net sales, are as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended -------------------- March 31, April 1, 2001 2000 --------- --------- Sales 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales, including occupancy and buying expenses 65.5% 65.9% Selling, general and administrative expenses 33.8% 33.0% Other income 3.6% 0.1% Income before taxes 4.3% 1.2% Income tax provision 1.6% 0.4% Net income 2.7% 0.8% Sales - ----- Net sales increased $3,277,000 or 8.0% during the thirteen week period ended March 31, 2001, as compared to the 2000 Fiscal period. The increase was primarily due to the greater number of stores open during the 2001 period, as well as an increase in comparable store sales (sales for stores open at least one year or more) which increased 4% during 2001, as compared to the 2000 Fiscal period. 9 Costs and expenses - ------------------ Cost of sales, which includes occupancy and buying costs, increased $2,012,000 or 7.5% for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the similar 2000 Fiscal period. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to the increase in sales and the related cost of merchandise for those sales, higher markdowns, as well as a $366,000 increase in occupancy expenses, as a result of the additional stores in operation during Fiscal 2001 as compared to Fiscal 2000. As a percentage of sales, cost of sales including occupancy and buying expenses, decreased 0.4%, (65.5% as compared to 65.9%) for the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the 2000 Fiscal period, the decrease was primarily due to the increase in initial mark-up and was partially offset by higher occupancy and buying expenses, as well as an increase in markdowns, as compared to the prior period. Selling, general and administrative expenses - -------------------------------------------- Selling, general and administrative expenses ("S,G&A") increased $1,432,000 or 10.6% during the thirteen weeks ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the 2000 Fiscal period. The increase was primarily due to the greater number of stores open in 2001 (approximately 7 more than fiscal 2000), and is reflected in greater payroll and payroll taxes ($1,133,000), travel expenses ($124,000), and insurance expenses ($84,000). As a percentage of sales, S,G & A expenses increased to 33.8% in Fiscal 2001 as compared to 33.0% in Fiscal 2000. Other income - ------------ During the period ended March 31, 2001, the Company settled a trademark litigation claim undertaken against a third party. The Company will receive payments totaling $2,100,000 in Fiscal 2001 and will incur costs in Fiscal 2001 of approximately $582,000 in professional fees related to the lawsuit. Interest income increased to $61,000 in Fiscal 2000 from $40,000 in Fiscal 2000, due to an increase in average cash on hand. Income taxes - ------------ The Company's effective tax rate is approximately 36.5%, for Fiscal 2001 and Fiscal 2000. 10 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
