CARROLS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. STATEMENT OF MANAGEMENT
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission and do not include all of the information and the
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of such
financial statements have been included.
The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to
December 31. Fiscal 1998 will contain 53 weeks and the company has historically
included the extra week in its second fiscal quarter. Accordingly, the three and
six months results of operations and cash flows ending June 30, 1998 include 14
weeks and 27 weeks, respectively.
The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998,
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended
December 31, 1997 contained in the Company's 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The December 31, 1997 balance sheet data is derived from these audited financial
statements.
Certain amounts for the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.
2. INVENTORIES
Inventories at June 30, 1998 and December 31, 1997, consisted of:
JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31,
1998 1997
---------- ------------
Raw materials (food and paper products).................................... $2,068,000 $2,111,000

3. INCOME TAXES
The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997
was comprised of the following:
1998 1997
---------- --------
Current....................................................................... $3,248,000 $250,000
Deferred...................................................................... 75,000 122,000
---------- --------
$3,323,000 $372,000
---------- --------
---------- --------
For 1998 and 1997 the difference between the expected tax provision
resulting from application of the federal statutory income tax rate to pre-tax
income and the reported income tax provision result principally from state taxes
and non-deductible amortization of franchise rights.
4. ACQUISITIONS
On March 28, 1997, the Company purchased certain assets and franchise
rights of twenty-three Burger King restaurants in North and South Carolina for a
cash price of approximately $21.0 million.

On August 20, 1997, the Company purchased certain assets and franchise
rights of sixty-three Burger King restaurants, primarily in Western New York
State, Indiana and Kentucky for a cash price of approximately $52 million.
The following proforma results of operations for the periods presented

The preceding proforma financial information is not necessarily indicative
of the operating results that would have occurred had either acquisition been
consummated as of the beginning of the respective periods, nor are they
necessarily indicative of future operating results.
5. HEDGE ACCOUNTING
In the first quarter of 1998 the Company entered into hedge transactions in
anticipation of a possible refinancing transaction of certain of its existing
debt. The Company's accounting policy is to defer any gains or losses resulting
from the hedge until the date of the anticipated transaction and amortize any
gains or losses over the life of the future debt instrument.
At June 30, 1998, the notional amount of the Company's hedge transactions
was $75,000,000. Deferred losses on these transactions at June 30, 1998 were
approximately $945,000.
6. SUBSEQUENT EVENT--ACQUISITION OF POLLO TROPICAL, INC.
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated June 3, 1998, the
Company commenced a tender offer to purchase all the outstanding shares of
common stock of Pollo Tropical, Inc. ('Pollo Tropical') for a price of $11.00
per share in cash (the 'Tender Offer'). The Company consummated the Tender Offer
on July 9, 1998 and completed the merger of Pollo Tropical into the Company on
July 20, 1998 (the 'Merger'). The aggregate cash consideration paid pursuant to
the Tender Offer and the Merger was $97.0 million including transaction fees and
expenses. To finance the Pollo Tropical Acquisition, the Company borrowed
approximately $97.0 million under its existing senior credit facility. This
borrowing required the Company to amend its existing Senior Credit Facility in
July 1998 to modify, among other things, certain financial covenants with
respect to debt to cash flow ratios.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
OVERVIEW
The Company is the largest Burger King franchisee in the world and has
operated Burger King restaurants since 1976. As of June 30, 1998, the Company
operated 340 Burger King restaurants located in 13 Northeastern, Midwestern and
Southeastern states. Over the last five years, the Company has selectively
expanded its operations through the acquisition and construction of additional
Burger King restaurants while also enhancing the quality of operations, the
competitive position and financial performance of its existing restaurants. As a
result of its growth strategy, the Company has increased the total number of
restaurants it operates by over 70% from 1993 to 1997, and over 40% in 1997
alone. In July 1998, the Company completed its acquisition of Pollo Tropical for
a cash purchase price of approximately $97.0 million. Pollo Tropical is a
regional quick-service restaurant chain featuring grilled marinated chicken and
authentic 'made from scratch' side dishes. See note six to the Consolidated
Financial Statements.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
Fiscal 1998 will contain 53 weeks and the Company has historically included
the extra week in its second fiscal quarter. Accordingly, the six months results
of operations and cash flows ending June 30, 1998 and 1997 include 27 and 26
weeks, respectively.
Restaurant Sales. Restaurant sales for the six months ended June 30, 1998,
increased 48.0% to $193.3 million from $130.5 million for the first six months
of 1997. The increase in sales was primarily the result of the growth in the
number of Burger King restaurants operated by the Company, which increased from
263 at the end of the second quarter of 1997 to 340 at the end of the second
quarter of 1998. During the six months ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 the Company
operated 338 and 249 average restaurants, respectively. Sales at the Company's
226 comparable restaurants (those units operating for the entirety of the
periods compared) increased 10.9% for the first six months of 1998. Adjusted for
the additional week in 1998, comparable restaurant sales increased 6.8%. During
the 12 months ended June 30, 1998, the Company opened 12 new restaurants,
acquired 67 restaurants and closed two underperforming restaurants.
Operating Costs and Expenses. Cost of sales (food and paper costs), as a
percentage of sales, were 28.8% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 compared
to 28.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1997. This increase reflects higher
commodity costs, particularly due to the introduction of a new french fry
product in January 1998, offset, in part, by lower beef costs. The six months
ended June 30, 1998 includes a cost rebate of approximately $815,000 linked to
the adverse impact of a recall of beef in the third quarter of 1997.
Restaurant wages and related expenses decreased, as a percentage of sales,
during the first six months of the year, from 31.1% for 1997 to 29.4% for 1998
due to restaurant labor efficiencies, the effect of increased sales on
8
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION--(CONTINUED)
fixed restaurant management labor, and lower effective unemployment tax rates in
New York State and Ohio. This decrease was offset in part by an increase in the
Federal minimum wage rate from $4.75 per hour to $5.15 per hour effective
September 1997.
Other restaurant operating expenses, including advertising, decreased as a
percentage of sales to 24.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 24.9%
for the six months ended June 30, 1997. The decrease was due, in part, to higher
1998 sales relative to the fixed components of the Company's costs and lower
utility costs in 1998 due to a milder winter in certain of the Company's
operating areas. This decrease was offset, in part, by higher advertising
expenses in 1998, as a percentage of sales, associated with increased local
promotional activity.
Administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, decreased to 4.2% for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 4.3% for the six months ended June 30,
1997. Administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 1998 increased
approximately $2.4 million from the six months ended June 30, 1997, principally
due to the addition of field supervision and corporate support as a result of
the 1997 acquisition of 93 restaurants, and to support the Company's plans for
continued expansion.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ('EBITDA')
increased to $25.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from $14.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 1997. As a percentage of sales, EBITDA
increased to 13.1% for the six months ended June 30, 1998 from 11.1% for the six
months ended June 30, 1997 as a result of the factors discussed above.
Depreciation and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 1998
increased $2.1 million from the six months ending June 30, 1997 due primarily to
increased amortization associated with franchise rights and property and
equipment related to the 93 restaurants acquired in 1997.
Interest expense was $8.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998
compared to $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30 1997. This increase
was primarily the result of higher average debt balances due to funding the
acquisition of 93 restaurants in 1997.
The provision for income taxes of $3.3 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 is based on an estimated effective income tax rate for 1998 of
45%. This rate is higher than the Federal statutory tax rate of 34% due to state
franchise taxes, non-deductible restaurant acquisition costs and amortization of
intangible assets.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company
The Company does not have significant receivables or inventory and receives
trade credit based upon negotiated terms in purchasing food products and other
supplies. The Company is able to operate with a substantial working capital
deficit because (i) restaurant operations are conducted on a cash basis, (ii)
rapid turnover allows a limited investment in inventories, and (iii) cash from
sales is usually received before related accounts for food, supplies and payroll
become due. The Company's cash requirements arise primarily from the need to
finance the opening and equipping of new restaurants, for ongoing capital
reinvestment in its existing restaurants, for the acquisition of existing Burger
King restaurants, and for debt service.
Carrols generated cash flow from operations for the first six months of
1998 of $20.1 million, compared to $2.9 million for the first six months of
1997.
Capital expenditures for the first six months of 1998 totaled $12.4
million, which included construction costs for five new restaurants and the
acquisition of two restaurants during the period. Capital expenditures for the
same period in 1997 totaled $30.8 million, which included construction costs for
four new restaurants and the acquisition of 29 restaurants during the period.
Carrols' capital expenditures also include remodeling costs and capital
maintenance projects for the ongoing reinvestment and enhancement of its
restaurants. These expenditures have increased in 1998 due to growth in the
number of restaurants and investments being made to enhance the
9
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION--(CONTINUED)
sale and management systems. These systems projects have resulted in incremental
capital investments which totaled approximately $1.6 million for the first six
months of 1998.
Carrols generated $1.7 million from the sale and leaseback of two
restaurant properties during the first six months of 1998, the proceeds of which
were used to reduce outstanding debt. Carrols also paid dividends to Holdings
totaling $3.9 million for Holdings' payment of dividends on its preferred stock
and for the early redemption of the remaining $3.6 million in preferred stock
which was scheduled for mandatory redemption in December 1998 and December 1999.
At June 30, 1998, the Company had $45.4 million outstanding under its
Existing Senior Credit Facility. The Company's acquisition of Pollo Tropical
resulted in expenditures totaling approximately $97.0 million, which includes
the cost of acquiring the outstanding shares of Pollo Tropical common stock, the
outstanding Pollo Tropical stock options and expenses related to the Pollo
Acquisition. The Pollo Acquisition has been funded using the Company's Existing
Senior Credit Facility which was amended on July 9, 1998 to modify, among other
things, certain financial covenants with respect to debt to cash flow ratios.
The Company has entered into a term sheet with Chase Bank of Texas,
National Association, as agent and lender, and the other lending parties
thereto, with respect to a new $175 million credit facility. There can be no
assurance that this new credit agreement will be consummated.
In 1998, the Company anticipates capital expenditures of approximately $28
million, not including the cost of any acquisitions that the Company may make.
These amounts include approximately $15 million for construction of new units
(including certain real estate) and $8 million for ongoing reinvestment and
remodeling of its existing restaurants. The Company's 1998 reinvestment and
remodeling spending is anticipated to be somewhat higher than historical levels
as it invests in the Burger King restaurants it acquired in 1997 to bring them
up to the Company's operating standards. In 1998, the Company also plans to
upgrade its restaurant point-of-sale and in-restaurant support systems, and has
also undertaken an upgrade of its headquarters information and decision support
systems. During 1998 and 1999 the Company estimates that it will incur
expenditures for these systems projects of $11 to $12 million. In addition, the
Company anticipates capital expenditures in 1998 of approximately $5 million for
Pollo Tropical, consisting primarily of costs related to the development of new
restaurants.
INFLATION
The inflationary factors which have historically affected the Company's
results of operations include increases in food and paper costs, labor and other
operating expenses. Wages paid in the Company's restaurants are impacted by
changes in the Federal or state minimum hourly wage rates. Accordingly, changes
in the Federal or states minimum hourly wage rate directly affect the Company's
labor cost. The Company and the restaurant industry typically attempt to offset
the effect of inflation, at least in part, through periodic menu price increases
and various cost reduction programs. However, no assurance can be given that the
Company will be able to offset such inflationary cost increases in the future.
YEAR 2000
The Company recognizes the need to ensure its operations will not be
adversely impacted by Year 2000 software failures. Carrols is addressing this
risk to the availability and integrity of financial systems and the reliability
of operational systems. Carrols has projects underway for the installation of
new point-of-sale systems in its restaurants and for the replacement of a
substantial portion of its corporate financial and decision support systems.
The primary purpose of these projects is to improve the efficiency of
Carrols' restaurant and support operations, however, they will also provide the
additional benefit of making its systems Year 2000 compliant. Carrols is
installing commercially available point-of-sale hardware and software, and has
purchased a suite of financial software applications, all of which are designed
and warranted to be Year 2000 compliant. The Company believes that its computer
systems will be Year 2000 compliant by the end of the second quarter of Fiscal
1999. This is a forward looking statement and is subject to risks and
uncertainties, including the ability of third party vendors and software
provided by third parties to effectively satisfy the requirements of being Year
2000 compliant.

POLLO TROPICAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1998
(UNAUDITED)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1997, which has
been derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited interim
condensed financial statements included herein, have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, except that
earnings per share data has been omitted. Certain information and note
disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or
omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures made herein are adequate to make the information presented
not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of
the Company and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods
indicated. Results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1998 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending
December 31, 1998.
(2) ACCOUNTING POLICIES
During interim periods the Company follows the accounting policies set
forth in its consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this
offering memorandum. Reference should be made to such financial statements for
information on such accounting policies and further financial details. Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year
presentation.
(3) NEWLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARD
In April 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Position ('SOP') No. 98-5, 'Reporting on the Cost of Start-Up Activities'. SOP
98-5 requires that the costs of start-up activities, including organization
costs, be expensed as incurred. The Company plans to adopt SOP 98-5 when
required in the first quarter of Fiscal 1999, although early adoption is
permitted. Initial adoption of SOP 98-5 should be as of the beginning of the
fiscal year in which first adopted, and will be reported as the cumulative
effect of a change in accounting principle in the first quarter of Fiscal 1999.
At the present time, the Company cannot predict the amount of the cumulative
effect of the change in accounting principle that will be recorded in the first
quarter of Fiscal year 1999, however, had the Company adopted the new standard
at the beginning of Fiscal year 1998, the cumulative effect of the change in
accounting principle that would have been recorded in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30, 1998, would
not have been material to income before cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. Had the provisions of SOP 98-5 been applicable to the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, income before
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle as calculated in
accordance with the provisions of SOP 98-5 would not have been materially
different than the historical amount reported herein.
(4) ACQUISITION EXPENSES
As of July 20, 1998, the Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of
Merger, ('Merger Agreement'), with Carrols Corporation ('Carrols'). Pursuant to
the Merger Agreement, Company shareholders tendering their shares to Carrols
will receive $11.00 per share and the Company will be merged with and into
Carrols (the 'Merger') and upon the Merger, the remaining shares outstanding, if
any, will be converted into the right to receive $11.00 per share. Carrols will
be the surviving corporation of the Merger.
Simultaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Company,
Carrols and Larry Harris, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
entered into a Non-Competition and Confidentiality Agreement (the
'Confidentiality Agreement'). Under the Confidentiality Agreement Carrols will
pay $350,000

(4) ACQUISITION EXPENSES--(CONTINUED)
to Mr. Harris' within five days after the consummation of the Merger and an
additional $90,000 in connection with Mr. Harris accrued bonus for the six
months ended June 30, 1998. Additionally, Carrols will pay William Carl Drew,
the Company's Chief Financial Officer, half his full maximum annual bonus due
plus a lump sum severance payment upon his departure equal to Mr. Drew's one
year annual base salary. The total amount of the payment to Mr. Drew
approximates $168,000. As of June 30, 1998, the Company has incurred
approximately $300,000 in financial services advisory fees, $97,000 in legal
fees, $93,000 in director fees for special committee meetings and $14,000 in
outside professional and office expenses associated with the merger, which are
included in Acquisition expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income. The Company will also incur approximately $1.1 million in
financial services advisory fees upon the consummation of the Merger Agreement,
write off approximately $101,000 in capitalized loan costs, approximately
$51,000 in unamortized deferred compensation and will record approximately
$18,000 due to the accelerated vesting of stock options.
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include
any adjustments to reflect the amount of Carrols' investment in the Company.
(5) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Accrued Restaurant Closure Expenses
During the six months ended June 30, 1998, the Company incurred $88,597 in
net losses on disposal of fixed assets and $141,118 in expenses associated with
termination of leases which were applied to the closure reserve established in
Fiscal 1996. In the second quarter of Fiscal 1998 the Company increased the
accrued restaurant closure expenses $150,000, consisting of $50,000 in net
losses on disposal of fixed assets and $100,000 in estimated liabilities
associated with the termination of leases. Any difference between these
estimated expenses and the actual amounts of such expenses will be recorded
during the period in which such differences become known.
Purchase and Construction Agreements
During Fiscal 1997, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for a
future restaurant site with a purchase price of approximately $640,000. The
Company expects to close the agreement during Fiscal 1998. The Company has also
entered into a construction contract for a new restaurant in the amount of
approximately $492,000 and estimates incurring an additional $3.3 million in
capital expenditures to develop five restaurants in 1998.
