Item 1. Business. The Marcus Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the "Company") are engaged in four business segments: motels; hotels and resorts; restaurants; and movie theatres. The Company began in 1935 as the operator of a single movie theatre and currently owns, operates or franchises 99 motels, five hotels, one resort, 68 restaurants, and 36 movie theatres with an aggregate of 189 screens. The Company's motel operations include a chain of 98 Budgetel Inn economy motels in 26 states and one Woodfield Suites all-suite motel in Wisconsin. Of the 98 Budgetel Inns, 76 are owned or operated by the Company and 22 are franchised. The Company's hotel and resort operations include The Pfister and the Marc Plaza, full-service hotels in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin metropolitan area, and The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa, a full-facility destination resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. The Company also operates or manages three hotels, the Sheraton Mayfair Inn in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, The Mead Inn in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin, and the Crowne-Plaza Northstar in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Company's restaurant division includes 35 KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) restaurants in Wisconsin; four Marc's Big Boy restaurants in Wisconsin and Minnesota; 13 Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill restaurants in Wisconsin; 13 Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar ("Applebee's") restaurants in Wisconsin and Illinois; two Big Boy Express restaurants in Wisconsin; and one Original Gino's East of Chicago Restaurant in Wisconsin. The Company operates 36 movie theatres with an aggregate of 189 screens throughout Wisconsin and in northern Illinois. Business Segment Data Set forth below is certain business segment data for the Company's three most recent fiscal years relating to the Company's four industry segments. As a result of the substantial expansion of the Company's hotel and resort operations in fiscal 1994 and the increasingly different operating characteristics of the Company's hotels and resort from the Company's motels, the Company has commenced separate business segment reporting for its hotel and resort division and its motel division and has restated retroactively the following segment reporting information accordingly. Intersegment sales and transfers are not material.

(2) Included revenues from affiliated customers are not material. (3) Corporate items include amounts not allocable to specific business segments. Revenues consist principally of earnings on cash equivalents. Operating profit includes earnings on cash equivalents, less interest expense and general corporate expenses. Assets include primarily cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, receivables from joint ventures and land held for development. Motel Operations Budgetel Inns The Company owns, operates or franchises 98 economy motels, with over 10,000 rooms, under the name "Budgetel Inn" in 26 states. The Company operates 22 Budgetel Inns through franchisees. The remaining Budgetel Inns are either Company-owned (68) or operated under joint venture agreements (eight). Targeted at the business traveler, Budgetel Inns feature an upscale, contemporary exterior appearance, are generally located in high traffic commercial areas in close proximity to interstate highway exits and major thoroughfares and typically vary in size between 60 and 150 rooms. Budgetel Inn daily room rates generally vary between $30 and $45 per night. The Company believes that providing amenities not typically associated with economy-priced motels help distinguish Budgetel Inns from many of its competitors. These amenities include executive conference centers, room-delivered complimentary continental breakfasts, king-sized beds, free local telephone calls and incoming fax transmissions, no smoking rooms, in-room coffeemakers and hair dryers, remote control cable televisions, extra-long telephone cords and large working desks. To enhance customer security, the Company has converted all of its Company- owned and most of its franchised Budgetel Inn rooms to "card key" locking systems and provides well-lighted parking areas and all night front desk staffing. The interior of each Budgetel Inn is refurbished in accordance with a strict periodic schedule. Budgetel Inns operates a nationwide guest reservation center, where travelers can call 1-800-4-BUDGET toll-free to obtain Budgetel Inn room reservations and other information. The Company has a national franchise program for its Budgetel Inns. Franchisees pay an initial franchise fee and annual marketing assessments, reservation system assessments and royalty fees based on room revenues. To facilitate continued growth in Budgetel Inn franchising, the Company offers certain financial assistance plans to its franchisees. The Company is qualified to sell, and anticipates ultimately selling, franchises in all 50 states. During fiscal 1994, five new Company-owned units opened and one franchised unit was opened. Since the end of fiscal 1994, two new Company-owned Budgetel Inns have opened, with an additional five new Company-owned and two new franchised units under various stages of construction. Depending upon continuing favorable industry conditions and other factors, the Company currently plans to add a substantial number of new Budgetel Inns over the next five fiscal years through internal expansion, franchising and acquisition. Woodfield Suites The Company operates a mid-priced, all-suite motel under the name "Woodfield Suites" and plans to open two more Woodfield Suites in fiscal 1995 using its new prototype all-suites motel design. Woodfield Suites offers all of its guests the use of its centrally-located swimming pool, whirlpool and game room. Each suite has a bedroom and separate living room and features an extra-length bed, sleeper sofa for additional guests, microwave, refrigerator, wet bar, television and hair dryer. Some suites also have a kitchenette. All guests receive a free continental breakfast and are invited to a free cocktail hour. Hotel and Resort Operations The Pfister Hotel The Company owns and operates The Pfister Hotel, a 307-room, full service luxury hotel, in downtown Milwaukee. In fiscal 1994, The Pfister Hotel earned its 18th consecutive four-diamond award from the American Automobile Association. The Pfister is also a member of the Preferred Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Association, an organization of independent luxury hotels and resorts, and the Association of Historic Hotels of America. In 1988, The Pfister Hotel initiated a five-year exterior and interior restoration and refurbishment plan which was completed prior to May 1993, when The Pfister celebrated its centennial anniversary. The renovation and centennial celebration contributed to increased occupancy levels in fiscal 1994. The Marc Plaza Hotel The Company owns and operates the 500-room Marc Plaza Hotel, located in downtown Milwaukee. The Company leases office suites on two floors of The Marc Plaza to professional and other business tenants on a short- to intermediate-term basis and provides such tenants with various secretarial and other office-type services. As a result of the planned opening of a new and expanded municipal convention center adjacent to the Marc Plaza, the Company will commence work on a major refurbishment of the Marc Plaza's existing facilities in November 1994, with completion targeted for May 1995. Additionally, the Marc Plaza plans to add an additional 250 rooms. The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa In July 1993, the Company acquired the Americana Lake Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and renamed it the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa. Originally opened in 1968, the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa is a full- facility destination resort located on 1,300 acres. The resort includes 355 guest rooms, a convention center, three speciality restaurants, two championship golf courses, several ski-hills, indoor tennis courts, a fitness and sports complex, horse stables and an on-site airport. The resort was closed by the Company in September 1993 for a complete renovation and reopened in May 1994. Operated and Managed Hotels The Company operates the 150-room Sheraton Mayfair Inn in the Milwaukee metropolitan area under a operating agreement which expires in April 1995. The Company is currently evaluating the economic feasibility of renewing this operating agreement and may enter into negotiations to continue its operation of the Sheraton Mayfair Inn if the proposed economic terms and conditions indicate that such a renewal would be in the best interests of the Company. The Company manages the 226-room Crowne Plaza - Northstar in Minneapolis, Minnesota pursuant to a 15-year management agreement. Formerly known as the Northstar Hotel, the property was substantially remodeled in early 1994 and renamed the Crowne Plaza-Northstar, the luxury brand of the Holiday Inn system. The Company also manages the 154-room Mead Inn in Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin, pursuant to a 15-year management agreement, with the Company having an option to extend the term of the agreement for three successive five-year periods. Restaurant Operations The restaurant division operates facilities under a number of different restaurant concepts and the Company is continually trying to position its restaurants in order to best respond to changing consumer tastes and preferences. These efforts include closing or selling less profitable locations, converting them into different concepts or remodeling them. The Company's current principal emphasis is on casual- theme dining, as evidenced through the Company's continuing expansion of its successful Applebee's facilities. The Company also actively considers developing or being the franchisee for new restaurant concepts. At the close of fiscal 1994, the Company operated 13 Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bars, 35 KFCs, 13 Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mills, four Marc's Big Boys, two Big Boy Expresses and one Original Gino's East of Chicago. KFC Restaurants The Company has non-exclusive franchise rights to operate KFC restaurants in the Milwaukee metropolitan area and in northeast Wisconsin. The Company has operated KFC restaurants for 34 years. The Company currently operates 35 KFC restaurants and is the largest operator of KFC restaurants in Wisconsin, based on the number of facilities operated. The restaurants feature Kentucky Fried Chicken and other franchisor-authorized food items, including the introduction of the new Colonel's Rotisserie Gold non-fried chicken in fiscal 1994. In 1988, the KFC franchisor, Pepsico, Inc., began efforts to change the KFC dining concept from providing facilities with only carryout services ("carryout stores") to providing facilities with carryout, drive- thru and sit-down service ("KFC restaurants"). In response to these efforts, the Company has renovated, rebuilt or renovated 32 of its 35 carryout stores into KFC restaurants, providing virtually all new facilities with inside seating for approximately 40 customers, drive-thru windows and updated electronic equipment to better facilitate food preparation and order processing. In fiscal 1994, the Company replaced two carryout units with new KFC restaurants in Milwaukee. The Company plans to build two or three new KFC's in late fiscal 1995. Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar Restaurants The Company has the exclusive franchise rights to develop and operate Applebee's restaurants in the Chicago metropolitan area and surrounding counties and for substantially all of Wisconsin. The Applebee's restaurant system is franchised by Applebee's International, Inc., a publicly-held company headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri. A majority of the restaurants in the Applebee's system are operated by franchisees, such as the Company. The Company owns and operates 13 Applebee's, including four in the Milwaukee metropolitan area, two in Madison, Wisconsin, one in Appleton, Wisconsin, and six in the Chicago metropolitan area. During early fiscal 1995, the Company opened three new units, one in Green Bay, Wisconsin and two in Illinois. The Company has seven additional Applebee's in various stages of development in Wisconsin and in the Chicago metropolitan area. The Company plans to open a total of six to eight Applebee's in fiscal 1995. Applebee's restaurants are local neighborhood establishments, with a comfortable and casual atmosphere appealing to all ages. Menu items consisting of beef, chicken, seafood and pasta entrees prepared in a variety of cuisines include traditional favorites and innovative dishes, in addition to a full range of appetizers and snack foods. The Company's Applebee's restaurants generally have about 35 to 40 tables and seat approximately 165 customers, with a centrally located bar. Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill Restaurants The Company owns and operates 13 Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill restaurants. Renovated from former Big Boy restaurants, the updated decor in each Marc's Cafe includes brass, greenery, rich upholstery and warm, relaxing colors. Local memorabilia decorate the walls for a hometown touch in each facility. Marc's Cafes are intended to provide customers with a casual, intimate atmosphere, with menus featuring, among other items, freshly-brewed specialty coffees, rotisserie chicken, beer and wine. Operating in a highly competitive segment of the restaurant industry, the Company continues to examine alternatives and refinements to this internally-developed restaurant concept. Marc's Big Boy Restaurants/Big Boy Express The Company operates four Marc's Big Boy restaurants and has non- exclusive franchise rights to operate restaurants under the "Big Boy" name in Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa and exclusive rights in Minnesota. In response to changing consumer tastes and preferences, the Company has closed, sold or converted 54 of its former Big Boy restaurants over the last six years in order to focus on more promising locations and restaurant concepts. The Company expects to ultimately close or convert all of its remaining Marc's Big Boy locations as appropriate alternatives arise. The Company operates two Big Boy Express double drive-thru, carryout restaurants in metropolitan Milwaukee, designed with a 1950s art deco motif. Intended as a test concept, Big Boy Express features outdoor patio seating and enclosed walk-up windows and serves the "Big Boy" doubledecker hamburger sandwich, other sandwiches, french fries and milkshakes. The Company continues to evaluate the potential long-term feasibility of this concept. The Original Gino's East of Chicago Restaurants In September 1993, the Company acquired exclusive franchise rights to operate Original Gino's East of Chicago restaurants in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa and selected sights in Illinois. Gino's East specializes in Chicago-style (deep dish) pizza, together with pasta, salads, sandwiches and Italian cuisine. In fiscal 1994, the Company opened a Gino's East restaurant in Milwaukee. Restaurant Franchise Agreements The Company's restaurant franchise agreements impose various specifications as to the preparation of the franchised products as well as general operating procedures, including advertising, maintenance of records and protection of trademarks. Such agreements also provide, among other things, for inspection, counseling and advisory services by the franchisors. The Company's KFC locations operate under individual franchise agreements ranging in terms from 10 to 20 years in length. Franchise fees approximate 4% of gross sales and, in addition, an initial flat fee of $20,000 is payable for each new KFC restaurant. The KFC franchise arrangement has been, and is expected to continue to be, material to the success of the Company's restaurant division. The Company's Big Boy franchise agreement provides for payment of a franchise fee of 1% of gross sales. The Big Boy franchise is non- exclusive and continues in perpetuity, provided the Company complies with the conditions of the franchise agreement, which relate primarily to operating procedures and use of trademarks. The Company's exclusive franchise rights in Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa terminated as of August 1, 1994 as a result of the Company not maintaining a specified minimum number of Big Boys in the franchise area. Given the Company's deemphasis of the Big Boy concept, the Company does not believe this change in its franchise rights impacts adversely its restaurant operations. The Company's development agreements with the Applebee's franchisor for its Chicago and Wisconsin franchise territories require the Company, among other things, to build a specified number of Applebee's restaurants in each territory in accordance with a development timetable. The Applebee's franchisor charges an initial franchise fee of either $30,000 or $35,000 (depending on location) for each Applebee's restaurant developed. A royalty fee of 4% of monthly gross sales is payable to the franchisor. Additionally, as franchisee, the Company is required to pay an advertising fee to the franchisor for national advertising purposes and to spend certain amounts for local advertising. Applebee's franchise agreements have a term of 20 years and can be renewed for an additional 20 years. The Company's franchise agreement with the Gino's East franchisor provides for an initial franchise fee of $25,000 for each Gino's East franchise opened. A royalty fee of between 3% and 7% of total gross sales is payable to the franchisor, depending upon individual franchise sales levels. The Company's master development agreement for Gino's East restaurants requires the Company, among other things, to open a specified number of Gino's East restaurants within the Company's franchised territory in accordance with a development schedule. Each of the Company's restaurant franchisors, to varying degrees, specify certain product requirements and provide for certain approved suppliers of products and supplies in order to maintain the respective franchise's quality standards. Theatre Operations The Company operates 36 movie theatres with an aggregate of 189 screens in Wisconsin and northern Illinois. The Company's facilities include 32 automated multi-screen theatres, three single-screen theatres and one outdoor twin theatre. The Company's long-term growth strategy is to focus on multi-screen theatres, which typically vary in seating capacity from 150 to 450 seats per screen. Multi-plex theatres allow the Company to offer a diversified selection of films to attract additional customers, to shift movies to larger or smaller auditoriums within the same theatre depending on the popularity of the movie and to benefit from the economies of having common box office, concession, projection and lobby facilities. Virtually all of the Company's movie theatres feature exclusively first-run films. The results of the Company's movie theatre business (and the movie theatre industry in general) are largely dependent upon the box office appeal and marketing of available first-run films. Stimulated in large part by additional demand from ancillary markets such as home video, pay- per-view and cable television, as well as increased demand from European film markets, the annual number of first-run film releases has more than doubled since 1981. Over 160 first-run films were released in fiscal 1994, including such box office hits as Mrs. Doubtfire, Philadelphia, Grumpy Old Men, Jurassic Park, The Firm, Schindler's List, Sleepless in Seattle, The Fugitive, In the Line of Fire and The Pelican Brief. In fiscal 1993, approximately 150 first-run films were released. In fiscal 1994, the Company opened a new 10-plex theatre at Gurnee Mills, Illinois. Three theatres with a total of five screens were closed in fiscal 1994, two of which were sold; the Company also sold one of its outdoor theatres. Since the end of fiscal 1988, the number of screens in the Company's theatre circuit has grown by 49, representing a 35% increase. In fiscal 1995, the Company anticipates opening a new eight- plex theatre in Delafield, Wisconsin and adding up to 11 screens to existing theatres. The Company currently plans to add up to 33 additional screens in fiscal 1996, including additional theatres in Illinois, and to aggressively continue its expansion thereafter as appropriate opportunities arise. The Company obtains its films from various national motion picture production and distribution companies, has never experienced difficulties in obtaining an adequate supply of available first-run films and is not dependent on any one motion picture supplier. Bookings, advertising, refreshment purchases and promotion are handled centrally by an administrative staff. The Company strives to provide its movie patrons with high-quality picture and sound presentation in clean, comfortable, attractive and contemporary theatre environments. Substantially all of the Company's movie theatre complexes feature DTS (digital sound) Dolby stereo sound systems; acoustical ceilings; side wall insulation; engineered drapery folds to eliminate sound imbalance, reverberation and distortion; tiled floors; loge seats; cup-holder chair-arms; and computer-controlled heating, air conditioning and ventilation. Computerized box offices permit most of the Company's movie theatres to sell tickets in advance and allow tracking of attendance by film title and time. Most of the Company's theatres are fully handicapped-accessible and provide wireless headphones, as well as some closed-captioned films, for hearing-impaired moviegoers. The Company also operates an exclusive customer information telephone system in Milwaukee and Madison, allowing customers to call for information as to the locations, times and titles of movies being shown by the Company throughout each metropolitan area. In fiscal 1994, the Company introduced digital sound systems at seven of its screens in four of its theatres, with additional theatres scheduled to be upgraded to digital sound in fiscal 1995. The Company sells refreshments and other concessions at all of its movie theatres. The Company believes a wide variety of food and refreshment items, properly merchandized, increases concession revenue per patron. Although popcorn still remains the traditional favorite with moviegoers, the Company continues to attempt to upgrade its available concessions by offering a wide range of choices. For example, some of the Company's theatres offer hot dogs, pizza, ice cream, frozen yogurt, coffee, mineral water, juices and dessert. Competition All of the Company's business segments are highly competitive and there are other facilities in close proximity to many of the Company's facilities which compete directly with those of the Company. In each of its businesses, the Company experiences intense competition from national and/or regional chain and franchise operations, some of which have substantially greater financial and marketing resources than the Company. The Company's Budgetel Inns compete with such national economy motel chains as Days Inn, Hampton Inn (owned by The Promus Companies Incorporated), Fairfield Inn (owned by Marriott Corporation), Red Roof Inn, La Quinta Inn, Comfort Inn and others, as well as a large number of regional and local motels. The Company's hotels compete in the Milwaukee metropolitan area with the hotels operated by Hilton Hotels, Hyatt Corporation, Marriott Corporation, Ramada Inns, Holiday Inns and Wyndham Hotels. The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa and the Company's managed and operated hotels compete with other hotels, motels and resorts located in proximity to such facilities. In the restaurant business, the Company's Marc's Big Boy, Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill, Applebee's and Gino's East restaurants compete with national chains such as Denny's, Shoney's, Cracker Barrel, Perkin's, Red Lobster, TGI Friday's, Chili's and Olive Garden, among others, as well as smaller regionalized restaurant chains and individual restaurants. The Company's KFC restaurants compete locally with Hardee's, Popeye's and similar national, as well as regional, fast food chains and individual restaurants offering chicken. The Company's movie theatres compete with national large movie theatre operators, such as United Artists, Cinemark and Carmike Cinemas, Inc., as well as with a wide array of smaller exhibitors. Although movie exhibitors in general also compete with the home video, pay-per-view and cable television markets, the Company believes that such markets have assisted the growth of the movie theatre industry in general by encouraging a significant increase in the number of first-run movies produced and released for initial movie theatre exhibition. The Company believes that the principal factors of competition in each of its businesses, in varying degrees, are the price and quality of its product, quality and location of its facilities, and customer service. The Company believes that it is well positioned to compete on the basis of these factors. Seasonality Historically, the Company's first and fourth fiscal quarters have produced the strongest operating results, since such period (i.e., late spring through the July 4th holiday season) coincides with the typical summer seasonality of the movie theatre industry and the summer strength of the travel and food service aspects of the Company's business. However, the Company has been experiencing less seasonality in its theatre segment over the past several fiscal years due to the continued increased movie industry emphasis on producing films directed to more diverse and mature audiences. Research and Development Research and development expenditures for the Company are not material. Environmental Regulation The Company does not expect federal, state or local environmental legislation to have a material effect on the Company's capital expenditures, earnings or competitive position. However, the Company's activities in acquiring and selling real estate for business development purposes have been complicated by the continued increased emphasis placed by Company personnel on properly analyzing real estate sites for potential environmental problems. This circumstance has resulted in, and is expected to continue to result in, greater time and increased costs involved in acquiring and selling properties associated with the Company's various businesses. Employees As of the end of fiscal 1994, the Company had approximately 7,500 employees, a majority of whom were employed on a part-time basis. A majority of the Company's hotel employees in Milwaukee and Minneapolis are covered by collective bargaining agreements. Relations with employees have been satisfactory and there have been no work stoppages due to labor disputes. Item 2. Properties. The Company owns a substantial portion of its facilities, including The Pfister Hotel, the Marc Plaza Hotel and the Grand Geneva Resort and Spa, and leases the remainder. The Company also manages or operates three hotel properties. Additionally, the Company owns properties acquired for the future construction and operation of new Company operating facilities. Some of its properties are leased from entities owned by principal shareholders of the Company. All of the Company's properties are suitably maintained and adequately utilized to cover the respective business segment served. The operating properties owned or leased by the Company as of May 26, 1994 are summarized in the following table: Total Number Leased From Leased From Managed for Managed for of Facilities Unrelated Related Related Unrelated Operation in Operation Owned(1) Parties Parties Parties Parties Restaurants: Marc's Big Boy 4 3 1 0 0 0 Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill 13 10 3 0 0 0 KFC 35 33 2 0 0 0 Applebee's 13 8 5 0 0 0 Big Boy Express 2 2 0 0 0 0 Gino's East 1 0 1 0 0 0 Movie Theatre Screens: Indoor 187 131 50 6 0 0 Outdoor 2 0 0 2 0 0 Hotels and Resorts Hotels 5 2 1 0 0 2 Resorts 1 1 0 0 0 0 Motels Budgetel 76 56 0 1 18 1 Woodfield Suites 1 1 0 0 0 0 --- --- --- --- --- --- TOTALS 340 247 63 9 18 3 === === === === === === <FN> ________________ (1) One of the Marc's Cafe restaurants, three of the KFC restaurants, two of the Applebee's, 16 of the indoor movie theatre screens and one of the motels owned by the Company are on land leased from unrelated parties under long-term leases. The Company's partnership interests in 18 Budgetel Inns and six indoor movie theatre screens are not included in this column. Certain of the above individual properties or facilities are subject to purchase money or construction mortgages or commercial lease financing arrangements, none of which encumbrances are considered in the aggregate to be material to the Company. Assuming exercise by the Company of all renewal and extension options, the terms of the Company's operating property leases expire on various dates, with over 90% of the leases expiring after 1995. Item 3. Legal Proceedings. The Company does not believe that any pending legal proceeding involving the Company is material to its business. No legal proceeding required to be disclosed under this item was terminated during the fourth quarter of the Company's 1994 fiscal year. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders. No matters were submitted to a vote of the Company's shareholders during the fourth quarter of the Company's 1994 fiscal year.

See Item 7. Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation. Results of Operations - General The Marcus Corporation and its divisions report their consolidated results of operations on either a 52-or 53-week fiscal year. Both fiscal 1994 and fiscal 1993 were 52-week years for the Company and all of its divisions. Fiscal 1992 was a 53-week year for the motel, hotels and resort and restaurant divisions. Fiscal 1995 will be a 52-week fiscal year for the Company and all of its divisions. Total consolidated revenues for fiscal 1994 were $246.3 million, an increase of $32.3 million, or 15.1%, compared to fiscal 1993 consolidated revenues of $214.0 million. Net earnings for fiscal 1994 were $22.8 million, or $1.74 per share. Net earnings increased $6.3 million, or 38.5%, over fiscal 1993 net earnings of $16.5 million, or $1.42 per share. Earnings per share in fiscal 1994 increased by a smaller percentage, 22.5%, than net earnings due to the effect on weighted average shares outstanding resulting from the 1,755,000 shares of Common Stock issued by the Company in its March 1993 public offering. Weighted average shares outstanding for fiscal 1994 were 13.1 million compared to 11.6 million for fiscal 1993. Fiscal 1994 earnings included a one-time $1.8 million tax benefit, or $0.14 per share, resulting from the Company's adoption of SFAS 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes." Excluding the tax benefit, fiscal 1994 earnings were $21.0 million, or $1.60 per share. The Company's income tax expense for fiscal 1994 was $13.6 million, an increase of $3.0 million from fiscal 1993. The Company's effective tax rate for fiscal 1994 was 39.3% versus the prior year's 39.1%. Inflation has not had a material impact on the Company's consolidated results of operation. As a result of the substantial expansion of the Company's hotel and resort operations in fiscal 1994 and the increasingly different operating characteristics of the Company's hotels and resort from the Company's motels, the Company has commenced separate business segment reporting for its hotel and resort division and its motel division. All segment information has been retroactively restated to take into account the Company's change in segment reporting. Motels Fiscal 1994 Versus Fiscal 1993 Total revenues in fiscal 1994 for the motel division were $89.0 million, an increase of $8.4 million, or 10.4%, compared to fiscal 1993. The motel division's operating profits in fiscal 1994 totaled $26.0 million, an increase of $2.2 million, or 9.2%, over the division's fiscal 1993 operating profits of $23.8 million. Occupancy and average daily room rates continued to increase at the Company's motels in fiscal 1994 principally as a result of improved economic conditions and an effective Budgetel advertising campaign. The Company's motel occupancy percentage increased by 1.4 percentage points in fiscal 1994 from fiscal 1993 and the average daily motel room rate increased by 4.0% in fiscal 1994 from 1993. The increased average occupancy percentage and daily room rate contributed almost $3.8 million to the motel division's increased fiscal 1994 revenues. At the close of fiscal 1994, there were 98 Budgetel Inns and one Woodfield Suites in operation, compared to 92 Budgetel Inns and one Woodfield Suites at 1993 fiscal year-end. Five new Company-owned Budgetel locations and one new franchised Budgetel location opened in fiscal 1994. Together, the six new facilities contributed additional revenues of $4.6 million and nominal operating profits in fiscal 1994. The Company currently anticipates that up to seven additional Company-owned Budgetel Inns and two new Woodfield Suites will be opened during fiscal 1995, together with up to six new franchised Budgetel Inns. Fiscal 1993 Versus Fiscal 1992 Total revenues for the motel division in fiscal 1993 were $80.6 million, an increase of $6.0 million, or 8.1%, compared to fiscal 1992. Operating profits for the motel division in fiscal 1993 totaled $23.8 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 19.6%, over the division's fiscal 1992 operating profits of $19.9 million. The extra operating week in fiscal 1992 had an immaterial impact on the foregoing comparisons. Theatres Fiscal 1994 Versus Fiscal 1993 The theatre division's fiscal 1994 revenues were $51.4 million, an increase of $7.5 million, or 17.1%, over fiscal 1993. Operating profits for fiscal 1994 were $12.4 million, an increase of $2.7 million, or 28.1%, over fiscal 1993. At fiscal 1994 year-end, the Company operated 189 screens at 36 locations in Wisconsin and Illinois, compared to 184 screens at 38 locations at the end of fiscal 1993. Consistent with the Company's long-term strategic plan to focus on operating large multi- screen theatres, the Company opened its first Illinois location in fiscal 1994 at Gurnee Mills in metropolitan Chicago, sold a previously closed outdoor theatre, sold two indoor theatres having a total of three screens and closed one twin screen theatre. These theatre sales and closure resulted in a reduction of approximately $445,000 of revenues from fiscal 1993. The Company intends to add 19 screens during fiscal 1995, including a new eight-plex theatre in suburban Milwaukee and 11 screens to existing theatres. Revenues of the theatre business are heavily dependent on the audience appeal of available films, a factor over which the Company has no control. In fiscal 1994, over 160 first-run films were released, including such box office hits as Jurassic Park, Mrs. Doubtfire, The Fugitive, Sleepless in Seattle, The Firm and Schindler's List. Each of these films produced box office receipts in excess of $1.0 million for the theatre division. Total box office receipts in fiscal 1994 were $35.5 million, an increase of almost $5.0 million, or 16.2% from fiscal 1993. This increase can be attributed to a 7.4% increase in attendance and an 8.1% increase in the average ticket price. The increase in attendance was due principally to the abundance of high-quality popular films released in fiscal 1994 and the opening of the Gurnee Mills ten-plex theatre. Vending revenues in fiscal 1994 were $13.6 million, an increase of $1.7 million, or 14.6%, over fiscal 1993, due to the increase in theatre attendance and the 6.4% increase in the average concession sales per person in fiscal 1994 from fiscal 1993. Fiscal 1993 Versus Fiscal 1992 The theatre division's total fiscal 1993 revenues were $43.9 million, an increase of $921,000, or 2.1%, over fiscal 1992. Operating profits for fiscal 1993 were $9.7 million, an increase of $530,000, or 5.8%, over fiscal 1992. The Company opened six new screens in fiscal 1993. During fiscal 1993, the Company closed three theatres with a total of seven screens. Hotels and Resort Fiscal 1994 Versus Fiscal 1993 Total revenues from the Company's hotel and resort division in fiscal 1994 increased by $3.9 million, or 13.7%, to $32.4 million, over the previous fiscal year, while operating profits increased by $500,000, or 23.4%, to $2.6 million, over fiscal 1993. Fiscal 1994 occupancy rates at the Company's three continuing hotels increased by 5.8% and average room rates for the hotel division increased by 1.4% in fiscal 1994. The increase in occupancy and room rates contributed $1.2 million to the division's revenues in fiscal 1994. The remainder of the division's increase in revenues in fiscal 1994 was attributable principally to the opening of the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa and, to a significantly lesser extent, management fees derived from the partial year of operating the Company's two newly managed hotels during fiscal 1994. As indicated above, during fiscal 1994, the hotel and resort division added three new properties totaling 735 rooms through the Company's July 1993 purchase of The Grand Geneva Resort & Spa and by entering into two hotel management contracts, one for the 226-room Crowne Plaza-Northstar in November 1993, and the other for the 154-room Mead Inn in February 1994. The Company intends to continue pursuing additional hotel and resort acquisitions and management contracts. Fiscal 1993 Versus Fiscal 1992 Total revenues for the hotel and resort division in fiscal 1993 were $28.5 million, an increase of $400,000, or 1.4%, compared to fiscal 1992. Operating profits for the hotel and resort division in fiscal 1993 totaled $2.1 million, an increase of $286,000, or 15.6%, over the division's fiscal 1992 operating profits of $1.8 million. The hotel and resort division reported results for a 53-week year in fiscal 1992, with the additional week generating approximately $300,000 in added revenues and $100,000 in operating profits. Excluding the additional week in fiscal 1992, the division's revenue increase in fiscal 1993 was negligible over fiscal 1992, and the comparative operating profits increase was $386,000 or 22.3%. Restaurants Fiscal 1994 Versus Fiscal 1993 The restaurant division operates facilities under a number of different restaurant concepts and the Company is continually trying to position its restaurants in order to best respond to changing consumer tastes and preferences. These efforts include closing or selling less profitable locations, converting them into different concepts or remodeling them. The Company also actively considers developing or being the franchisee for new restaurant concepts. At the close of fiscal 1994, the Company operated 13 Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bars, 35 KFCs, 13 Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mills, four Marc's Big Boys, two Big Boy Expresses and one Original Gino's East of Chicago. Restaurant division revenues totaled $71.1 million for fiscal 1994, an increase of $12.0 million, or 20.2%, from fiscal 1993. The revenue increase was due almost entirely to the Company's newly opened Applebee's and increasing customer counts and average check amounts at the Company's continuing Applebee's and KFC restaurants. The division's operating profits for fiscal 1994 were $2.2 million, an increase of $1.5 million, or 204.7%, from fiscal 1993. Fiscal 1994 operating profit improvements were derived principally from improved same store sales at continuing Applebee's and cost savings realized from closing or selling a number of underperforming Big Boy restaurants during the last two fiscal years. In fiscal 1994, the Company's continuing Applebee's restaurants achieved an 8.8% increase in same store sales and a 3.9% increase in guest counts. These factors contributed a $715,000 increase in the division's fiscal 1994 revenues. Additionally, the Company opened two new Applebee's restaurants during fiscal 1994 in its metropolitan Chicago franchise market, together with one new restaurant and one expanded location in its Wisconsin franchise area. These new and expanded locations contributed $4.3 million in additional revenues in fiscal 1994, although start-up costs associated with the new restaurants resulted in a $278,000 reduction in the division's operating profits. In fiscal 1995, the Company plans to open six to eight new Applebee's restaurants. KFC experienced an increase in guest counts, coupled with an increase in average check amounts, which resulted in a same store sales increase of 5.2%, or approximately $ 1.2 million, over fiscal 1993. During fiscal 1994, the Company's KFC restaurants introduced two new franchisor-sponsored products, The Colonel's Rotisserie Gold Chicken in the fall of 1993, and a new eight-piece fried chicken cut with larger breast pieces in May 1994. These new products contributed approximately $2 million in revenues in fiscal 1994. Additionally, the Company realized $288,000 in additional revenue during the year from the relocation of two KFC restaurants in Milwaukee. The Company plans to open two or three new KFCs late in fiscal 1995. The Company continued to reduce its number of underperforming Marc's Big Boy restaurants by closing one Big Boy during fiscal 1994 and plans to ultimately close its remaining four Big Boy locations. The Big Boy closing, combined with the other Big Boy closings in fiscal 1993, resulted in a loss of $2.1 million of fiscal 1993 revenues, but had a positive impact of $340,000 on the division's fiscal 1994 operating profits. The Marc's Cafe and Coffee Mill concept entered its second year in fiscal 1994, continuing its developmental process as customer counts and same store sales varied by location. On an aggregate basis, revenues and operating profits in fiscal 1994 from Marc's Cafes were flat compared to fiscal 1993. This family-oriented restaurant segment is highly competitive and the Company continues to examine alternatives and refinements to this restaurant concept in order to improve further the division's over-all results. The Company continues to monitor closely the operating performance and consumer acceptance of its two Big Boy Express restaurant locations and its newly opened Gino's East of Chicago restaurant. These locations contributed nominally to the division's revenues in fiscal 1994 and experienced operating losses because of anticipated start-up expenses. Fiscal 1993 Versus Fiscal 1992 Restaurant division revenues totaled $59.1 million for fiscal 1993, an increase of $3.0 million, or 5.4%, from fiscal 1992. The division's fiscal 1993 results were based on 52 weeks, versus 53 weeks in fiscal 1992. Excluding the additional week in fiscal 1992, revenues in fiscal 1993 increased approximately 6.3% from the prior year. The division's operating profits for fiscal 1993 were $723,000, an increase of $289,000, or 66.6%, from fiscal 1992 operating profits of $434,000. The operating profits from the additional week in fiscal 1992 were approximately $150,000. Financial Condition At the end of fiscal 1994, the Company's current ratio was .67, compared to .90 at the end of fiscal 1993. Given the cash nature of the Company's various businesses and the availability to the Company of $15 million in unused credit lines at fiscal 1994 year-end, the Company believes that the cash generated from its ongoing operations and available credit facilities are adequate to support the ongoing operational liquidity needs of the Company's businesses. Net cash provided from operations increased $13.3 million in fiscal 1994 to $50.1 million compared to fiscal 1993. The increase resulted from increased net earnings, an increase in depreciation and amortization expense reflecting the Company's continuing facilities expansion and an increase in net liabilities resulting from differences in the timing of payments on accounts payable. Investing activity increased $29.2 million to $74.8 million in fiscal 1994 primarily resulting from capital expenditures to support the Company's expansion. The most significant amount of capital spent by the Company during fiscal 1994 was on the renovation of the Grand Geneva Resort & Spa. The Grand Geneva renovation is expected to be completed by the fall of 1994. Other significant capital expenditures in fiscal 1994 were made in opening new motels, theatres and restaurants. Principally as a result of funding a portion of the Company's fiscal 1994 facility expansions and renovations, the Company's total debt increased to $112.0 million at the close of fiscal 1994 compared to $89.0 million at the end of fiscal 1993. In addition to the incurrence of $23.7 million of new debt to finance expansion, approximately $41.0 million in debt was raised to refinance at reduced interest rates existing debt. The Company's debt- capitalization ratio at May 26, 1994 was .37 compared to .34 at May 27, 1993. The Company is currently undertaking an aggressive five-year expansion plan which will impact all four of its business segments. The current aggregate estimated cost of these expansion plans is between $350 million and $400 million, with total estimated capital expenditures in fiscal 1995 (including normal continuing capital maintenance projects) expected to be almost $90 million. The Company's fiscal 1995 expansion plans are expected to be funded by cash generated from operations and up to $55 million in additional long-term debt. Item 8.

SFAS No. 109 requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. As of May 28, 1993, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $1,782,000, or $.14 per share, which amount represents the net change in its deferred income tax assets and liabilities at that date. Such amount has been reflected in the consolidated statement of earnings as the cumulative effect of change in accounting for income taxes. The components of the net deferred tax liability as of May 26, 1994, were as follows (in thousands): Deferred tax assets: Tax credit carryforwards $ 921 Accrued employee benefits 604 Other accrued liabilities 203 ------- Total deferred assets 1,728 Deferred tax liability - Depreciation and amortization 17,727 ------- Net deferred tax liability included in balance sheet $15,999 ======= Deferred income taxes in 1993 and 1992 also related principally to differences between financial and tax reporting of depreciation and amortization.

Construction Commitments - The Company has commitments for the completion of construction at various properties totaling approximately $14,582,000 at May 26, 1994. License Rights - The Company owns the license rights in certain areas to operate a number of its restaurants and to sell products using the Applebee s, Big Boy, Original Gino s East of Chicago and Kentucky Fried Chicken trademarks. Under the terms of the licenses, the Company is obligated to pay fees based on defined gross sales. Three of these licenses also require the Company to pay an additional fee for each new location established. Contingencies - The Company is contingently liable for debt guarantees of joint ventures totaling approximately $6,958,000 at May 26, 1994. 8. Joint Venture Transactions At May 26, 1994 and May 27, 1993, the Company held investments of $662,000 and $1,223,000, respectively, in various approximately 50%-owned affiliates (joint ventures) which are accounted for under the equity method.

The Company pays interest on the cash advances based on the 90-day certificate of deposit rates. 9. Business Segment Information The Company operates principally in four business segments: Restaurants, Theatres, Hotels/Resorts and Motels. Prior to 1994, the Company reported in three business segments.
