PART I - ITEM I - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 The information furnished was prepared internally by the Company and
has not been independently verified. However, it reflects all
adjustments which are, in the opinion of Management, necessary to
present a fair statement of results for the interim period. All
adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
Note 2 Earnings per Common Share is based on the weighted average number of
Common shares outstanding, adjusted for dilutive effects of stock
options, if applicable.
Note 3 The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", effective February 1, 1993
with no significant income statement impact. This statement
supersedes APB Opinion No. 11.
The Company's effective tax rate during fiscal 1993 and the
three months ended May 1, 1994 was 39.6% and 40.0%,
respectively. The provision for income tax expense for the
three months ended May 1, 1994 was $3,940,000. For interim
reporting purposes the entire provision for income tax expense
was classified as current.
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
differences between the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts
used for income tax purposes. The Company had a net deferred
tax liability of $915,000 at May 1, 1994 and January 30, 1994.
Other current assets on the balance sheet includes $5,186,000
of current deferred assets at May 1, 1994 and January 30, 1994.
Other current assets also includes $927,000 of current refundable
taxes at January 30, 1994.
The Company provided no valuation allowance against its
deferred tax assets recorded as of May 1, 1994 and January 30,
1994.

PART I - ITEM II MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND INTERIM RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
SALES
Sales increased 12.1%, and comparable store sales increased 0.4%, in the first
quarter ended May 1, 1994 as compared to the first quarter ended May 2, 1993.
Five new stores were opened during the quarter bringing the total number of Pic
'N' Save and Mac Frugal's Bargains o Close-outs stores to 242 at May 1, 1994
compared to 211 at May 2, 1993.
California continues to produce negative comparable store sales due to the
ongoing recession. Most other parts of the country generated positive
comparable store sales. Approximately 63% of the current year first quarter
sales for the Company were generated by stores within California.
GROSS PROFIT RATE
The gross profit rate of 47.0% for the first quarter this year increased from
46.2% for the first quarter last year. The increase is due primarily to a
higher markup on goods acquired and shipped to stores in the current quarter as
compared to the same quarter a year ago and a lower reserve for inventory
shortage (shrinkage) this year based on the Company's year-end results. These
increases were partially offset by increased markdowns as a percent of sales
and a lower initial markup on beginning store inventory in the current year.
OPERATING EXPENSE RATES
Operating expenses were 39.4% of sales for the current year first quarter.
Prior year first quarter operating expenses were 37.4% of sales. Operating
expenses as a percentage of sales increased in both store expenses and
warehouse and administrative expenses.
The increase in store expenses as a percentage of sales to 29.1% from 27.6%
resulted from increased payroll and occupancy costs for new stores; increased
advertising expense; and higher amortization of store pre-opening expenses
since 21 stores opened in the six months ended May 1, 1994 as compared to 8
stores opened in the six months ended May 2, 1993.
Warehouse and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of sales to
10.3% in the current year first quarter from 9.8% in the prior year first
quarter. During the comparable quarter of the last fiscal year, a profit of
$1,557,000 was recognized from the sale of surplus land which reduced expenses,
and this year warehouse rent is being charged due to the sale and leaseback of
the New Orleans distribution center near the end of last year's third quarter.
The new rent expense was partially offset by elimination of the depreciation
expense associated with the New Orleans distribution center.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Net interest expense of $1,314,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 1993
decreased to $958,000 for the same period in 1994. Factors contributing to the
decrease were reduced debt levels and lower amortization of bank loan fees in
the current year.

INCOME TAX RATE
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes", effective February 1, 1993 with no significant
income statement impact. This Statement supersedes APB Opinion No. 11 under
which the Company provided for its income taxes prior to the adoption of SFAS
No. 109.
The income tax rate for the current year first quarter was 40.0%, and for
interim reporting purposes, the entire provision for income tax is classified
as current. The current rate of 40.0% reflects an increase from the fiscal
1993 rate of 39.6% for projected changes in permanent items. Income taxes were
provided at a rate of 40.0% in the prior year first quarter.
The Company had a net deferred tax liability of $915,000 at May 1, 1994 and
January 30, 1994. Other current assets on the balance sheet includes
$5,186,000 of current deferred assets at May 1, 1994 and January 30, 1994.
Other current assets also includes $927,000 of current refundable taxes at
January 30, 1994.
The Company provided no valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets
recorded as of May 1, 1994 and January 30, 1994.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents increased $2,655,000 in the first three months of
fiscal 1994 compared to a decrease of $20,775,000 in the first three months of
fiscal 1993. The major factor influencing the increase of cash and cash
equivalents for the first three months of the current year was the increase in
net borrowings to fund higher inventory levels and continued repurchases of
treasury stock. During the quarter, the Company repurchased 389,100 shares of
its Common Stock in the open market at a weighted average price of $15.65 per
share.
The Company's long-term debt was 1.5% of equity and its total debt was 22.9% of
equity at the end of the first three months of fiscal 1994 compared to 1.5% and
15.1%, respectively, at fiscal year-end 1993. The increase in the total debt
to equity percentage resulted from both increased borrowings to meet the
Company's seasonal inventory requirements and no increase in stockholders'
equity. Stockholders' equity did not increase because repurchases of treasury
stock approximated net earnings for the quarter.
The Company believes its present lines of credit are adequate to meet any
seasonal or temporary liquidity needs that cannot be met with cash flows from
operating activities. At May 1, 1994 the Company had $55,000,000 of
outstanding revolving debt.
The Company's current ratio at the end of the first three months this year was
2.00 versus 2.21 at fiscal year-end 1993. The decrease in the current ratio
reflects the growth in short-term borrowings and accounts payable exceeding the
growth in inventory.
