NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However,
such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal
recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary
for a fair statement of results for the interim periods.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto, included in the Form 10-KSB for
the year ended December 31, 1996 of Thrift Management, Inc.
(the "Company").
(2) ORGANIZATION
The consolidated financial statements at March 31, 1997 and 1996 include
the accounts of the Company, Hallandale Thrift Management, Inc. ("HTMI"),
Thrift Shops of South Broward, Inc. ("TSSB"), Thrift Shops of West Dade,
Inc. ("TSWD"), Hallandale Thrift, Inc. ("HTI"), North Broward Consignment,
Inc. ("NBCI") and Thrift Shops of North Lauderdale, Inc. ("TSNL"; HTMI,
TSSB, TSWD, HTI, NBCI and TSNL are collectively referred to herein as the
"Subsidiaries"). All entities, except TSNL which was incorporated in March
1997, were wholly-owned by a common stockholder as of March 31, 1996. As of
May 31, 1996, HTMI, TSSB, TSWD, HTI, and NBCI became wholly-owned
subsidiaries of the Company pursuant to a reorganization plan. Accordingly,
as of March 31, 1997 and 1996, and for the periods then ended, the Company
has presented consolidated financial statements. All significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated for financial
statement presentation purposes.
(3) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
In December 1996, the Company consummated its initial public offering in
which it sold 615,000 units at a price of $5.75 per unit. Each unit
consisted of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one
share of common stock for $5.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable for
a period of five years commencing December 11, 1996 and may be redeemed by
the Company on 30 days' notice at any time during such period at a price of
$.10 per warrant if the closing bid price of the common stock for 20
consecutive trading days ending on the 15th day prior to the date that
notice of redemption was given by the Company has been at least 150% of the
exercise price then in effect. The Company realized approximately
$2,596,950 in proceeds from the offering, net of underwriting discounts and
expenses and other offering expenses. Simultaneously with the offering, the
Company charged all offering costs incurred to additional paid-in capital,
which costs totaled $653,050.

(3) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY--Continued
The Company filed a post-effective amendment to its Registration Statement
on Form SB-2, on behalf of certain of its security holders, with respect to
165,000 shares of common stock, 600,000 warrants to purchase shares of
common stock and 600,000 shares of common stock underlying the
aforementioned warrants. The post-effective amendment was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 21, 1997. None
of the proceeds from the sale of these securities will be received by the
Company. The Company will bear all expenses in connection with the
registration of these securities.
(4) SHORT TERM INVESTMENTS
At March 31, 1997, the Company has investments in two United States
Treasury Bills with maturity values amounting to $708,000 and $717,000 and
related maturity dates of May 8, 1997 and August 7, 1997, respectively.
(5) COMMITMENT
In March 1997, the Company entered into a five year lease for a new store
location in Broward County, Florida. The lease agreement provides for
minimum monthly rental payments amounting to approximately $9,600 and
contains two renewal options for five year periods under substantially the
same terms and conditions.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is an analysis of the results of operations of Thrift
Management, Inc. and Subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") and its
liquidity and capital resources to the extent that such analysis contains
statements that are not of a historical nature, such statements are forward
looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. These risks include:
risks of increases in the costs of the Company's products; the Company's
relationship with its suppliers, licensors and contributors; changes in
preferences of customers; competitive and general economic factors in the
markets where the Company sells and collects goods; the impact of and changes
in government regulations such as restrictions or prohibitions relating to the
contribution of charitable goods; and other factors discussed in the Company's
filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto
of the Company included elsewhere herein.
GENERAL
The Company was organized in July, 1991 for the purpose of managing the
operation of retail thrift stores that offer new and used articles of clothing,
furniture, miscellaneous household items and antiques. HTMI is registered with
the State of Florida as a professional solicitor. The Company obtains its
merchandise primarily from two sources: (i) purchase contracts with charitable
organizations in return for an average of two to three percent (2% - 3%) of its
gross sales; and (ii) contracts with drop box collectors who maintain drop
boxes throughout designated areas from whom the Company purchases merchandise
in bulk at a flat rate per pound.
Items from the stores that remain unsold are sold in bulk to exporters,
which ship the items to countries throughout the Caribbean, Central and South
America, and Eastern Europe. Through its subsidiaries, the Company currently
operates four retail stores. HTMI is responsible for the solicitation of
donations on behalf of the charities through direct mailings, newspaper
advertising and telemarketing. HTMI is, in addition, responsible for the pickup
of the donated merchandise throughout the communities surrounding the Company's
stores.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and
March 31, 1996
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 1997 and 1996, totaled
$1,820,550 and $1,526,933, respectively. Revenues increased $293,617 or 19.2%
for 1997 as compared to 1996. The sales increase resulted from increased market
penetration at each of the Company's locations. The Company expects to continue
to achieve increased same-store sales revenues due to further increases in
market share in each of the Company's markets. The Company's gross profit for
the first quarter of 1997 increased $112,158 to $972,174 from $860,016 for the
first quarter ended March 31, 1996. This increase is attributable principally
to increased sales volumes partially offset by increases in cost of sales.

9
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS -- For the Three Months Ended March 31, 1997 and
March 31, 1996 -- Continued
Costs of goods sold, as a percentage of sales, increased 3% comparing the
first quarter of 1997 against the first quarter of 1996. The Company is
attempting to diversify its sources of supply and is also accumulating
additional merchandise with which to supply its new store which is expected to
become operational during the second quarter of 1997 in Lauderdale Lakes,
Florida. Some of the merchandise being acquired is being purchased from sources
outside the state requiring additional freight costs. The Company has two
sources for merchandise: direct donated goods through the charities with which
it has entered into purchase contracts, and fresh donated goods purchased from
private sources. In order for the Company to support the additional sales, the
Company has been relying to a greater degree on purchased merchandise as
compared to merchandise acquired through direct donation. The additional costs
resulting from the Company's greater reliance on purchased goods offset the cost
reduction achieved by the Company when it renegotiated its purchase contracts
with the charitable organizations to reduce the fees paid to them by the Company
effective January 1, 1996. Management is currently reviewing ways to improve
donation levels at the charities with which it currently has agreements.
Management is also considering entering into purchase contracts with additional
charitable organizations in order to reduce costs and obtain additional sources
for the Company's merchandise, although there can be no assurance that it will
be able to do so.
General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 1997 increased
$228,789 to $830,991 from $602,202 for the first quarter of 1996. This increase
is principally due to certain legal and accounting costs estimated at $60,000
associated with the Company's initial public offering ("IPO"), which was
completed in 1996, and additional costs of opening up the Company's fifth store
in Lauderdale Lakes, Florida estimated at $30,000. These costs are one time
costs and are not expected to recur in future periods. Additionally, management
has hired more store and administrative personnel in anticipation of the new
store commencing operations in the second quarter of 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 1997, the Company had working capital of $2,255,291 as
compared to a working capital deficiency of $574,924 at March 31, 1996. The net
increase in working capital is attributable primarily to cash increasing by
$2,297,762, principally as a result of consummation of the IPO in December and
the receipt of net proceeds therefrom and the liquidation of a $250,000
promissory note receivable that represents consideration received by the
Company for the sale of its securities in a private offering in February, 1996.
Cash at March 31, 1997 is $895,697 as compared with $6,820 at March 31,
1996. Net cash provided by operating activities was $47,751 for the three
months ended March 31, 1997 as compared to $98,832 for the three months ending
March 31, 1996. From December 31, 1996 through March 31, 1997, the net decrease
in cash of $1,674,491 resulted primarily from the purchase of additional
property and equipment to be utilized for the new store in Lauderdale Lakes,
Florida, the purchase of certain short term investments and the reduction in
the amount due to stockholder of $192,751.
9
10
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES--Continued
The increase in cash from March 31, 1996 to March 31, 1997 is the net
result of three items: receipt of net proceeds of $2,596,950 from the IPO,
receipt of net proceeds of $680,000 from two private offerings, liquidation of
the Company's liability to the Miami Jewish Home, dividends and loans paid to
the sole stockholder and the purchase of Common Stock and Warrants for
$500,000.
The Company believes that its current capital resources, together with
cash flow from its operations, will be sufficient to meet its anticipated
working capital requirements through at least 1998. There can be no assurances,
however, that such will be the case.
INFLATION AND SEASONALITY
Although the Company cannot accurately determine precisely the effects of
inflation, management does not believe that inflation currently has a material
effect on the Company's sales or results of operations.
The Company's operations are located in South Florida, which has numerous
part-time residents during the winter. The Company's results of operations
reflect the seasonable nature of this market, with donations and sales of
merchandise being higher in the winter months.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 5. OTHER INFORMATION
During the first quarter of 1997, TMI assigned all of its right, title
and interest under the agreement to solicit salvageable property with the
Missing Children Awareness Foundation, Inc. to HTMI. There were no other
changes to agreements with charities.
The Company expects that its fifth store will commence operations in
Lauderdale Lakes, Florida prior to the end of the second quarter and the
Company is seeking a new Chief Financial Officer to assist in Company growth
and operations.
