SPEC'S MUSIC, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended July 31, 1995.
The consolidated condensed financial statements were prepared from the books
and records of the Company without audit or verification. In the opinion of
management all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature and
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations
and cash flows for all the periods presented have been made. Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted.
The results of operations for the three month period ended October 31, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal
year. The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the
Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
2. LONG TERM DEBT
On September 20, 1994, the Company entered into a new 10 year credit
agreement which includes a $15 million revolving credit facility (declining
to $6 million by 2003) and a $1 million standby letter of credit facility
which expires December 1996. Under its new credit agreement, the Company has
agreed not to incur or create certain additional indebtedness or liens on
the Company's assets other than real estate mortgage financing and unsecured
convertible subordinated debt, without the lender's consent. The Company is
further required to maintain certain financial ratios related to net worth,
leverage and fixed charges coverage and has further agreed to limit the
amount of cash dividends paid to 25% of net earnings. Effective July 31,
1995, the Company and its lender entered into a modification to its credit
agreement to ease certain of the financial covenants contained therein. As
of November 30, 1995, the Company was technically in default under the
credit agreement since it had not yet selected a chief financial officer
reasonably acceptable to its lender. In addition, although the Company has
not yet completed its November 1995 financial statements, it anticipates
that it will not meet one of the financial covenants in its credit agreement
as of November 30, 1995. As a result, the Company has reclassified all
amounts due under the credit agreement as current liabilities. The Company
is continuing to negotiate with its lender to obtain modifications to
certain of the covenants. In the event the Company is unable to obtain such
modifications, the Company may, if appropriate, seek to refinance such loan,
the ability of which no assurance can be given. Borrowings under the new
credit agreement bear interest at the LIBOR rate plus 150 basis points or
the Company may fix its interest rate for periods not to exceed five years
at 150 basis points over the corresponding U.S. Treasury security yield. The
interest rate at October 31, 1995 was 7.31%.

Item 2.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1995 AND 1994
REVENUES
Total revenues increased by $700,000 or 4.1% during the first quarter of fiscal
1996 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 1995. On a same-store basis (stores
open for more than one year), revenues decreased by 12% over last year.
Revenues from product sales rose by 5.2% for the chain as a whole and decreased
by 12% on a same-store basis. The increase in product sales is due to the net
addition of three new stores during the first fiscal quarter of 1996 compared to
the same quarter in fiscal 1995. Same-store revenues declined because of the
lack of significant new hit release titles which contribute not only to greater
sales but to greater in-store traffic.
Same-store revenue also declined due to an increase in competition. During the
past two years, a large number of mass merchandisers have begun to sell compact
discs and cassettes at or near cost in order to attract customers to their
stores to generate sales of other products. During the fourth quarter of fiscal
1995, a national electronic mass merchandiser entered the South Florida market
with a significant number of new stores which offer compact discs and cassettes
at prices which are lower than those offered by the Company. The entry of this
competitor has caused other competitors in the market to lower their prices. In
response, the Company has selectively reduced its compact disc prices which
resulted in lower revenues and lower margins.
The Company plans to continue to review and adjust its prices and increase its
marketing and advertising campaign, particularly as it relates to its new
megastore concept. However, the Company believes that in the foreseeable future,
same-store revenues may decrease.
Video rental revenue decreased by 28% for the chain as a whole and by 24% on a
same-store basis as compared to fiscal 1995. The closing of one video rental
department, and lower demand contributed to lower revenue.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profits from product sales, which are net of product management and
distribution costs, were 32.8% and 33.5% during the first quarters of fiscal
1996 and 1995, respectively. Gross profit, as a percentage of revenue, declined
primarily because of promotional markdowns and the continued shift in sales mix
to compact and laser discs, which have lower gross margins than audio cassettes
and VHS tapes. However, the Company experienced slightly lower inventory
shrinkage during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 as compared to the first
fiscal quarter of 1995.
Gross profits from video rentals were 57.4% and 59.5% during the first quarters
of fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. Since the first quarter of fiscal 1995,
the Company closed one video rental department.
Total gross profits were 33.4% and 34.5% of revenue during the first quarters of
fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company expects total gross profit, as a
percentage of revenues, to
-8-
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED
decline in the foreseeable future because of the continued shift in the sales
mix to compact discs, the continued decline of video rental revenues and the
increased pricing pressures due to a heightened competitive environment,
described above.
STORE OPERATING GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Store operating, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of
revenue, were 41.3% and 34.8% during the first quarters of fiscal 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Store occupancy costs, as a percentage of revenue, increased
significantly because of a decline in same-store revenue and because of the
impact of eleven new store openings during the last three quarters of fiscal
1995, and two new store openings in the first quarter of fiscal 1996, whose
expenses were higher relative to revenue in their initial year of operations. In
addition, depreciation and amortization during the first quarter of fiscal 1996,
increased as a percentage of revenue because of capital investment associated
with new stores. This increase was offset in part by lower general and
administrative expenses, as a result of lower labor and outside service costs.
INTEREST EXPENSE AND OTHER INCOME
The Company incurred interest expense of $213,000 and $41,000 during the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase is due to capital
investment and working capital related to new store expansion and renovations in
fiscal 1995 and the first quarter of fiscal 1996 which required the Company to
increase its borrowings to $11.8 million at October 31, 1995.
INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate, as a percentage of earnings before income taxes,
was 38.0% and 38.1% during the first quarter of fiscal 1996 and 1995,
respectively. The effective income tax rate did not vary significantly from the
first quarter in the prior fiscal year.
NET EARNINGS (LOSS)
During the first quarter of fiscal 1996, the Company incurred a loss of
($1,005,000) or ($.19) per share compared to ($54,000) or ($.01) per share
during the first quarter of fiscal 1995. Earnings declined significantly because
of lower same-store sales and lower gross margins resulting from increased
competition and higher store operating costs associated with new store openings.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of October 31, 1995, working capital was $2.4 million compared to $16.3
million at July 31, 1995. The decrease in working capital during the first
quarter of fiscal 1996 was primarily the result of the reclassification of
long-term debt to current debt.
Cash flow used in investing activities increased from $2.3 million in fiscal
1995 to $2.6 million in fiscal 1996. The primary reason for the increase is the
capital investment related to property and equipment for 2 new stores that
opened during the first quarter of fiscal 1996.
On September 20, 1994, the Company entered into a new 10 year credit agreement
which includes a $15 million revolving credit facility (declining to $6 million
by 2003) and a $1 million
-9-

AND ANALYSIS, CONTINUED
standby letter of credit facility which expires December 1996. Under its new
credit agreement, the Company has agreed not to incur or create certain
additional indebtedness or liens on the Company's assets other than real estate
mortgage financing and unsecured convertible subordinated debt, without the
lender's consent. The Company is further required to maintain certain financial
ratios related to net worth, leverage and fixed charges coverage and has further
agreed to limit the amount of cash dividends paid to 25% of net earnings.
Effective July 31, 1995, the Company and its lender entered into a modification
to its credit agreement to ease certain of the financial covenants contained
therein. As of November 30, 1995, the Company was technically in default under
the credit agreement since it had not yet selected a chief financial officer
reasonably acceptable to its lender. In addition, although the Company has not
yet completed its November 1995 financial statements, it anticipates that it
will not meet one of the financial covenants in its credit agreement as of
November 30, 1995. As a result, the Company has reclassified all amounts due
under the credit agreement as current liabilities. The Company is continuing to
negotiate with its lender to obtain modifications to certain of the covenants.
In the event the Company is unable to obtain such modifications, the Company
may, if appropriate, seek to refinance such loan, the ability of which no
assurance can be given. Borrowings under the new credit agreement bear interest
at the LIBOR rate plus 150 basis points or the Company may fix its interest rate
for periods not to exceed five years at 150 basis points over the corresponding
U.S. Treasury security yield. At October 31, 1995, the Company had an
outstanding balance of $11.8 million under the credit agreement.
The Company substantially completed its expansion program during the first
quarter of fiscal 1996. The Company's future liquidity and its ability to reduce
its long term debt level depends upon its ability to generate sufficient cash
flow from operating activities by reducing its store operating, general and
administrative expenses and increasing its inventory turnover rate. The
Company's future profitability or the lack thereof, will have a substantial
impact on its liquidity and the availability of capital resources necessary to
conduct its business, renovate its stores and open additional new stores.
