and was incorporated in 1986. The Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Colorado Prime Holdings, Inc. ("CPH"), formerly KPC Holdings Corporation
("Holdings"). On May 9, 1997, pursuant to a merger agreement between Holdings
and Thayer Equity Investors III, L.P., a private equity investment limited
partnership ("Thayer"), Colorado Prime Acquisition Corp. ("CPAC"), a
transitory acquisition company established by Thayer prior to the
consummation of the merger, merged with and into Holdings (the "Merger")
following which Holdings was the surviving corporation and was renamed CPH.
2. Reference is made to the notes to consolidated financial statements contained
within the Company's audited financial statements for the period ended
December 24, 1999 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K. In
the opinion of management, the interim unaudited financial statements
included herein reflect all adjustments necessary, consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, for a fair presentation of such data on a basis
consistent with that of the audited data presented therein. The results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for a full year.
Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform with the
current period presentation.
3. The Company has approved a change in its fiscal year end from the last Friday
to the last Sunday in December. Fiscal 2000 will be a 53 week year and end on
December 31, 2000.
4. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Kal-Mar Properties Corp. ("Kal-Mar"), Concord

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
Certain information set forth herein contains forward-looking statements, as
such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
and Section 21 E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such statements are
subject to certain risks and uncertainties discussed herein, which could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements.
OVERVIEW
The Company is a leading direct marketer of high quality, value-added food
programs and products related to in-home dining and entertainment. Using a
combination of telemarketing and in-home selling, Colorado Prime Corporation
believes that it is the only company to offer this type of in-home shopping
service on a broad scale, currently serving 32 states through 74 sales offices.
The Company sells individually packaged, top quality meats and poultry, seafood,
assorted pasta dishes and a wide selection of prepared entrees for direct
delivery to consumer households. The Company's food products are of a quality
generally found only in specialty butchers, fine gourmet shops and high-end
restaurants and require simple preparation using a microwave, conventional oven
or grill. As a complement to its food products, the Company also sells
food-related and home entertainment appliances and accessories with unique
features not generally available in traditional retail channels. The purchase of
non-food items enables customers to earn a lifetime discount on food purchases.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Thirteen Weeks Ended June 25, 2000 Compared To Thirteen Weeks Ended June 25,
1999.
Total revenue for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by $4.3
million, or 11.5%, to $33.2 million from $37.5 million for the thirteen weeks
ended June 25, 1999. Food revenue for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000
decreased by $2.5 million, or 12.0%, to $18.4 million from $20.9 million for the
thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. Non-food revenue for the thirteen weeks
ended June 25, 2000 decreased by $1.5 million, or 11.3%, to $11.8 million from
$13.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. The reduction in food
revenue was due to lower average order size and volume for new and existing
customers. The decrease in non-food revenue was due to lower volume for new and
existing customers. Finance income for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000
decreased by $0.3 million or 9.9% to $3.0 million from $3.3 million for the
thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. The decrease resulted from a reduction in
interest eligible non-food accounts.
Gross profit for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by $4.5
million, or 18.3%, to $20.0 million from $24.5 million for the thirteen weeks
ended June 25, 1999. The gross profit margin for the thirteen weeks ended June
25, 2000 decreased to 60.3% from 65.3% for the thirteen weeks ended June 25,
1999. The decrease in the gross profit margin was due primarily to an increase
in food costs. The increase in food costs was due primarily to market conditions
and non-recurring transitional cost related to the shift in the production and
fulfillment of food products from the Company owned facility to an outside
processor which was completed in March, 2000. The Company expects relief from
the market conditions in the latter part of the quarter ending September 2000.
Additionally, an increase in the average customer discount negatively impacted
the gross profit margin for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000.
SG&A expenses are principally comprised of selling, telemarketing, delivery and
general and administrative expenses. For the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000,
these expenses decreased by $3.8 million, or 17.8%, to $17.7 million from $21.5
million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. The decrease was due to
lower sales related variable cost from lower product sales, lower fixed payroll
and non-payroll cost from the cost reductions enacted in the third and fourth
quarters of fiscal 1999, lower bad debt expense from improved receivable
performance and lower telecommunication costs from the Company's new contract
with its long distance carrier.
Interest expense for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 increased to $4.3
million from $4.0 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. The
increase was attributable to a greater level of borrowing at a higher rate of
interest under the working capital revolver.
Other expense for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 and June 25, 1999 was
$0.1 million.
Benefit for income taxes for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 increased by
$0.3 million to a benefit of $0.7 million from a benefit of $0.4 million for the
thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999. The increase was due to a higher pre-tax
loss.
Net loss for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 2000 increased to $1.8 million
from a loss of $1.2 million for the thirteen weeks ended June 25, 1999 for the
reasons discussed above.

Twenty-six Weeks Ended June 25, 2000 Compared to Twenty-six Weeks Ended June 25,
1999.
Total revenue for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by
$6.3 million, or 8.4%, to $67.9 million from $74.2 million for the twenty-six
weeks ended June 25, 1999. Food revenue for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25,
2000 decreased by $5.0 million, or 12.2%, to $35.4 million from $40.4 million
for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999. Non-food revenue for the
twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by $0.7 million, or 2.7%, to
$26.3 million from $27.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999.
The reduction in food revenue was due to lower average order size and volume for
new and existing customers. The decrease in non-food revenue was due to lower
average order size and volume for new and existing customers. Finance income for
the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by $0.6 million, or 8.8%, to
$6.3 million from $6.9 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999. The
decrease resulted from a reduction in interest eligible non-food accounts.
Gross Profit for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 decreased by
$5.3 million, or 10.9%, to $43.5 million from $48.8 million for the twenty-six
weeks ended June 25, 1999. The gross profit margin for the twenty-six weeks
ended June 25, 2000 decreased to 64.0% from 65.8% for the twenty-six weeks ended
June 25, 1999. The decrease in the gross profit margin was due primarily to an
increase in food costs. The increase in food costs was due primarily to market
conditions and non-recurring transitional cost related to the shift in the
production and fulfillment of the food products from the Company owned facility
to an outside processor which was completed in March, 2000. The Company expects
relief from the market conditions in the latter part of the quarter ending
September 2000. Additionally, an increase in the average customer discount
negatively impacted the gross profit margin for the twenty-six weeks ended June
25, 2000.
SG&A expenses are principally comprised of selling, telemarketing,
delivery and general and administrative expenses. For the twenty-six weeks ended
June 25, 2000, these expenses decreased by $5.8 million, or 13.6%, to $37.0
million from $42.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999. The
decrease was due to lower sales related variable cost from lower product sales,
lower fixed payroll and non-payroll cost from the cost reductions enacted in the
third and fourth quarters of fiscal 1999, lower bad debt expense from improved
receivable performance and lower telecommunication costs from the Company's new
contract with its long distance carrier.
Interest expense for the twenty-six ended June 25, 2000 increased to $8.4
million from $8.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999. The
increase was attributable to a greater level of borrowing at a higher rate of
interest under its working capital revolver.
Other expense for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 and June 25,
1999 was $0.3 million.
Benefit for income taxes for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000
decreased by $0.1 million to a benefit of $0.7 million from a benefit of $0.8
million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999. The decrease was due to
lower pre-tax loss.
Extraordinary gain for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 1999
resulted from the repurchase of $14.7 million of Senior Notes at a cost of $6.3
million. Additionally, the Company incurred $0.8 million of non-cash charges
related to the repurchase. The Company realized an extraordinary gain of $4.6
million which was net of a tax provision of $3.0 million.
Net loss for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2000 was $2.2 million
as compared to net income of $2.1 million for the twenty-six ended June 25, 1999
for the reasons discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash used in operating activities for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25,
2000 was $4.0 million, primarily comprised of a net loss of $2.2 million, non
cash charges of $3.6 million, an increase in current assets of $0.7 million and
a decrease in current liabilities of $4.4 million.
Net cash used in investing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25,
2000 of $0.2 million was for capital expenditures.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended June
25, 2000 was $3.7 million, comprised of borrowings under the revolver.
The Company had working capital of $49.1 million as of June 25, 2000 compared to
$47.0 million as of December 24, 1999.
7
10
The Company has a $50.0 million working capital revolver, with $2.2 million of
unused availability as of June 25, 2000. The working capital revolver contains
certain covenants requiring the Company to meet certain financial tests
including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, and a
limitation on capital expenditures. The working capital revolver and the senior
unsecured notes impose certain other restrictions on the Company, including
restrictions on its ability to incur indebtedness, pay dividends, make
investments, grant liens, sell its assets and engage in certain other
activities. In addition, the indebtedness of the Company under its working
capital revolver is secured by all of the assets of the Company, including the
Company's real and personal property, inventory, accounts receivable,
intellectual property and other intangibles. As of June 25, 2000, the Company
was in compliance with the provisions of the working capital revolver and had
cash on hand of $0.2 million.
The debt service obligation for the six months ended December 31, 2000 is
expected to be $7.5 million. Management is currently negotiating an alternative
source of cash which if consummated may provide sufficient cash to make
required payments of principal and interest and to fund other operating
requirements for at least the next 12 months. The ability of the Company to meet
its debt service obligations and reduce its total debt will be dependent,
however, upon the future performance of the Company which, in turn, will be
subject to general economic conditions and to financial, business and other
factors, including factors beyond the Company's control. Debt outstanding under
the working capital revolver will bear interest at floating rates; therefore,
the Company's financial condition is and will continue to be affected by changes
in prevailing interest rates.
Subject to market conditions and contractual requirements, the Company may
consider and effect the refinancing of a part of its indebtedness in fiscal 2000
in order to improve its debt service position and to reduce its net interest
expense.
The Company is subject to certain market risk factors related to its fixed rate
senior unsecured notes and its variable rate working capital revolver. The
Company does not believe the interest rate risk to be material and has disclosed
the factors in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 24,
1999.
Inflation
The Company believes that inflation has not had a material impact on its results
of operations for the thirteen weeks ended ended June 25, 2000.
