CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary, which are considered normal and recurring, to present fairly the financial position of the Company at June 28, 2003 (Fiscal 2003), June 29, 2002 (Fiscal 2002) and December 28, 2002 (Fiscal 2002), and the results of operations for the 26 and 13 week periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002 and consolidated statements of cash flows for the 26 weeks then ended. Certain financial information, which is normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, but which is not required for interim reporting purposes, has been condensed or omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002. Net income includes all sources of comprehensive income. There were no adjustments for foreign currency translation, unrealized gains (losses) on investments or deferred compensation expense incurred in fiscal 2002 or fiscal 2003 results. 2. BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS Basic and diluted earnings per share has been computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the 26 and 13 week periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002. The approximate number of shares used in the computations of diluted earnings per share were 9,628,000 and 9,660,000, respectively, for the 26 week period and 9,633,000 and 9,660,000, respectively, for the 13 week comparable period ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002. The approximate number of shares used in the computations of basic earnings per share were 9,125,000 and 9,100,000, respectively, for the 26 week comparable periods, and 9,130,000 and 9,100,000, respectively, for the 13 week comparable periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002. The Company accounts for options granted under the 2000 Stock Option Plan and 1994 Stock Option Plan in accordance with APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" under which no compensation cost has been recognized for stock option awards granted at fair market value. Had compensation expense for the Plan been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under the Plan, consistent with the method of SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure", the Company's net earnings, basic EPS and diluted EPS would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts listed below: 7 <page> <table> <caption> 26 Weeks Ended 13 Weeks Ended ----------------------------- ----------------------------- June 28, June 29, June 28, June 29, 2003 2002 2003 2002 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- <s> <c> <c> <c> <c> Net income - as reported $ 5,182,000 $ 4,816,000 $ 3,541,000 $ 2,960,000 - pro-forma $ 4,683,000 $ 4,408,000 $ 3,292,000 $ 2,756,000 Basic EPS - as reported $ 0.57 $ 0.53 $ 0.39 $ 0.33 - pro-forma $ 0.51 $ 0.48 $ 0.36 $ 0.30 Diluted EPS - as reported $ 0.54 $ 0.50 $ 0.37 $ 0.31 - pro-forma $ 0.49 $ 0.46 $ 0.34 $ 0.29 </table> 3.

BANK DEBT During November 2002, the Company reached an agreement with its bank to extend the maturity of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility until November 30, 2005. Pursuant to the newly Amended Revolving Credit Facility, $15,000,000 is available until expiration at November 30, 2005. The amounts outstanding thereunder bear interest at a maximum per annum rate up to the bank's prime rate. The agreement contains selected financial and other covenants. Effective upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Revolving Credit Facility, the Company grants to the bank a security interest in the Company's inventory and certain receivables. The Company is in compliance with all loan covenants. 8 <page> There have been no borrowings against the line of credit during fiscal 2002 and 2003. There were outstanding letters of credit of $612,000 and $1,159,000, pursuant to the Revolving Credit Facility at June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, respectively. 6. INCOME TAXES The effective tax rates for fiscal 2003 and fiscal 2002 were 38.3% and 36.5%, respectively.

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 our financial position and results of operations. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Except for the historical information and current statements contained in this Form 10-Q, certain matters discussed herein, including, without limitation, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" are forward looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the effect of economic and market conditions and competition, the ability to open new stores and expand into new markets, and risks relating to foreign importing operations, which would cause actual results to differ materially. 9 <page> RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - --------------------- The following table sets forth our results of operations for the 26 and 13 week periods ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002, expressed as a percentage of net sales. 26 Weeks Ended 13 Weeks Ended ------------------ ------------------ June 28, June 29, June 28, June 29, 2003 2002 2003 2002 -------- -------- -------- -------- Sales 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales 56.8% 58.1% 55.5% 57.3% Gross profit 43.2% 41.9% 44.5% 42.7% Store operating expenses 29.2% 27.7% 28.3% 27.2% General and administrative expenses 6.0% 6.7% 6.0% 6.5% Operating income 7.9% 7.5% 10.1% 8.9% Other income 0.1% 0.1% 0.1% 0.1% Income before income taxes 8.1% 7.7% 10.2% 9.1% Income tax provision 3.1% 2.8% 3.9% 3.3% Net income 5.0% 4.9% 6.3% 5.8% Net sales - --------- Net sales increased to $103.8 million from $98.9 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 5.0%, over the same 26 week period last year. This reflects $622,000 of additional net sales as a result of a 1% increase in comparable store sales. Net sales increased $4.3 million as a result of additional net sales from non- comparable stores. Net sales increased to $56.0 million from $51.3 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 9.1%, over the same 13 week period last year. This increase reflects $2.1 million of additional net sales as a result of a 4% increase in comparable store sales. Net sales increased $2.6 million as a result of additional net sales from non-comparable stores. Gross profit - ------------ Gross profit increased to $44.8 million from $41.5 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 8.0%, over the same 26 week period last year. This increase was the combined result of higher net sales and increased gross profit margins. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 43.2% from 41.9%. This increase as a percentage of net sales was primarily due to higher initial markups on inventory purchases resulting from a reduction in the number of our vendors and the number of stock keeping units. These reductions enabled us to commit to bulk fabric purchases and increased our ability to receive favorable pricing from vendors. We expect the improvement created by higher initial markups to continue to benefit results in the remainder of fiscal 2003. Gross profit increased to $24.9 million from $21.9 million, an increase of $3.0 million, or 13.6%, over the same 13 week period last year. This increase was the combined result of higher net sales and increased gross margins. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit, increased to 44.5% from 42.7%. The improvement in gross profit for the 13 week period reflects the same positive conditions as stated above for the 26 week period. 10 <page> Store operating expenses - ------------------------ Store operating expenses increased to $30.4 million from $27.4 million, an increase of $2.9 million or 10.7%, over the same 26 week period last year. This increase was attributable to an increase of $1.2 million in marketing and advertising expenses, as well as an increase in the total number of stores. As a percentage of net sales, store operating expenses increased to 29.2% from 27.7%, primarily due to higher marketing and advertising expenses and an increase in the number of new stores opened in the last year. Store operating expenses increased to $15.9 million from $14.0 million, an increase of $1.9 million, or 13.6%, over the same 13 week period last year. This increase was attributable to an increase in total stores open, and an increase of $786,000 in advertising and marketing and was partially offset by reductions in several expense categories. As a percentage of net sales, store operating expenses increased to 28.3% from 27.2%, primarily due to higher marketing and advertising expenses and an increase in the number of new stores opened in the last year. General and administrative expenses - ----------------------------------- General and administrative expenses decreased to $6.2 million from $6.6 million, a decrease of $393,000, or 6.0% below the same 26 week period last year. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 6.0% from 6.7%, primarily due to lower corporate-level payroll and employee-related costs. General and administrative expenses remained unchanged at $3.4 million, as compared to the same 13 week period last year. As a percentage of net sales, general and administrative expenses decreased to 6.0% from 6.5%, for the 13 week period. Other income - ------------ Other income increased to $144,000 from $127,000 in the same 26 week period last year, primarily attributable to higher average cash balances, partially offset by lower interest rates. Other income decreased to $70,000 from $76,000 in the same 13 week period last year, due to a reduction in interest rates in 2003. Income taxes - ------------ Income taxes increased to $3.2 million from $2.8 million, an increase of $441,000 over the same 26 week period last year. This increase was primarily attributable to higher taxable income, as well as an increase in our effective tax rate from 36.5% in fiscal 2002 to 38.3% in fiscal 2003. This increase in our effective tax rate is primarily due to a change in the mix of income subject to tax in the various states in which we do business. Income taxes increased to $2.2 million from $1.7 million, an increase of $492,000 over the same 13 week period last year. Net income - ---------- As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to $5.2 million from $4.8 million, an increase of $366,000 over the same 26 week period last year. Net income increased to $3.5 million from $3.0 million, an increase of $581,000 over the same 13 week period last year. 11 <page> LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - ------------------------------- Our cash requirements are primarily for the construction of new stores and inventory purchases for these stores, as well as the remodeling of existing stores. We have historically satisfied our cash requirements principally through cash flow from operations. As of June 28, 2003, the Company had working capital of $29.8 million, which included cash and marketable securities of $20.9 million. During the 26 weeks ended June 28, 2003, net cash provided by operations was $1.0 million, generated by net income, depreciation of $2.5 million, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $299,000, an increase in income taxes payable of $442,000 offset in part by a decrease in accounts payable of $2.0 million, an increase in inventories of $2.7 million and a decrease in accrued expenses of $2.4 million. Cash provided by investing activities was $4.5 million for the 26 week period ended June 28, 2003. Matured investments generated $9.5 million of cash flows. Funds used for equipment and leasehold improvements in new and remodeled stores totaled $5.0 million. Our capital requirements depend primarily on the number of new stores we open, the number of stores we remodel and the timing of these expenditures. Projected capital expenditures for fiscal 2003 to fund new store openings and remodeling are approximately $9 - 10 million. Based on our experience with new store openings, we estimate that the average net investment to open new stores is approximately $175,000 to $225,000, which includes new store opening expenses and initial inventory, net of landlord contributions and payables. We plan to open approximately 25 new stores during fiscal 2003. Three new stores were opened in March 2003 and two new stores opened in April and three new stores opened in June. We anticipate opening the remaining new stores during the summer and fall of 2003. We renovated eight existing stores through the end of the second quarter. After deducting construction allowances paid to the Company by its landlords, we spent $5.0 million through June 28, 2003 and expect to spend an additional four to five million dollars in 2003, for both new store and existing store construction and remodeling. We believe that cash flows from operations, our current available cash and funds available under our $15.0 million revolving credit facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs and contemplated new store expansion for at least the next 12 months. If our cash flow from operations should decline significantly or if we should accelerate our store expansion or remodeling program, it may be necessary for us to seek additional sources of capital. 12 <page> PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 4.
