5 JITNEY-JUNGLE STORES OF AMERICA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS MARCH 28, 1998 (Unaudited) AND MARCH 29, 1997 (Unaudited) (Dollars in thousands) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include those of Jitney-Jungle Stores of America, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Southern Jitney Jungle Company, Interstate Jitney-Jungle Stores, Inc., McCarty- Holman Co., Inc. and subsidiary, Jitney-Jungle Bakery, Inc., Delchamps Inc. and subsidiary and JJ Construction Corp. All material intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated. These interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles used in the annual financial statements for the 35 weeks ended January 3, 1998. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (all of which were of a normal recurring nature) necessary for a fair statement of consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company for the interim periods. The results of operations of the Company for the twelve weeks ended March 28, 1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire year. The Company changed its fiscal year end on January 3, 1998 to the closest Saturday to December 31. Previously, the Company reported its fiscal year end results as of the Saturday nearest to April 30. Data included herein for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 reflect the unaudited results of operations for the twelve weeks ended March 29, 1997. 2. ACQUISITION In September 1997, the Company acquired the majority of the common stock of Delchamps, Inc. Certain shareholders dissented from the merger and indicated that they will pursue their appraisal remedy under Alabama law. Management does not expect this matter to have a material affect on operations or the price of the acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, Delchamps' results of operations were included in the Company's consolidated financial statements subsequent to the acquisition date. The purchase price, net of cash acquired of $84, has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon the estimated fair values at the date of acquisition, as set forth below. Any variation between such amounts and the final allocation will change the amount of goodwill recognized in connection with the Delchamps acquisition and the related amortization expense. The allocation could be affected by, among other things, a final determination of amounts to be paid to former shareholders of Delchamps who dissented from the merger (and related professional fees) and of costs to be incurred related to Delchamps facilities identified by management for closure. Management believes, however that when the final valuation of the net assets acquired is complete, the allocation of the purchase price will not differ materially from the amounts shown herein. 6

3. RESTRUCTURING OBLIGATIONS In connection with the Delchamps acquisition, the Company recorded a restructuring obligation of $57,174 relating to (i) stores closed by Delchamps prior to the acquisition; (ii) Delchamps stores to be closed after the acquisition because of unprofitability; (iii) Company and Delchamps stores required to be divested under a consent decree with the Federal Trade Commission; (iv) closure of the Delchamps headquarters in Mobile, Alabama; and (v) closure of the Delchamps warehouse facility in Hammond, Louisiana. The $57,174 consists of $47,127 of future rental payments, $1,236 severance costs, $362 of loss on divestiture of fixed assets, and $8,449 of miscellaneous expenses related mainly to the shutdown of the Mobile and Hammond facilities. Of the total restructuring costs, $56,281 was recorded as goodwill as part of the purchase price allocation in the Delchamps acquisition and $893 was included as a special charge in the statement of operations, $599 in the 35 weeks ended 1-3-98 and $294 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998. 4. SPECIAL CHARGES Special charges consisted of severance benefits of $250 and loss on stores sold under the consent decree with the Federal Trade Commission in the Delchamps acquisition of $294. 5. LONG-TERM DEBT Long-term debt consisted of the following:
March 28, March 29, 1998 1997 --------- --------- Senior notes at 12%, maturing in 2006 $ 200,000 $ 200,00 Senior subordinated notes at 10.38% maturing in 2007 200,000 Senior Credit Facility 90,114 17,766 --------- -------- Long-term debt $ 490,114 $ 217,766 ========= ========
7 The Company has available a Senior Credit Facility of $150 million under which letters of credit aggregating $12,152 were outstanding at March 28, 1998. 6. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE Earnings (loss) per common and common equivalent share is based on net income (loss) after preferred stock dividend requirements and the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each interim period. Cumulative dividends not declared or paid on preferred shares amounted to $2,101 for the twelve weeks ended March 28, 1998. The number of shares used in computing the earnings (loss) per share was 424,150 for the twelve weeks ended March 28, 1998 and 425,000 for the twelve weeks ended March 29, 1997. Incremental shares attributed to outstanding warrants were not included in the computation as their effect on earnings (loss) per share would be antidilutive. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company is a party to certain litigation incurred in the course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability, if any, which may result from this litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 8 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Dollars in thousands) The following is management's discussion and analysis of significant factors affecting the Company's earnings during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations. A table showing the percentage of net sales represented by certain items in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations is as follows:
Twelve Weeks Ended March 28, March 29, 1998 1997 --------- --------- Net sales 100.0 % 100.0 % Gross profit 24.9 25.1 Direct store expenses 19.9 15.9 Warehouse, administrative and general expenses 3.7 5.8 Operating income 1.3 3.4 Interest expense, net 3.1 3.0 Special Charges 0.1 Earnings (loss) before income taxes (1.8) 0.5 Provisions for income taxes (0.7) 0.2 Net earnings (loss) (1.1) 0.3 EBITDA 4.3 6.1
A summary of the period to period changes in certain items included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the twelve week periods ended March 28, 1998 and March 29, 1997 is as follows: 9
Period-to-Period Changes Twelve Weeks Ended March 28, 1998 $ % -------- -------- Net sales $192,586 68.4 % Gross profit 47,471 n/m Direct store expenses 49,420 n/m Warehouse, administrative and general expenses 1,136 7.0 Operating income (3,085) (32.0) Interest expense, net 6,335 75.8 Special charges 544 n/m Earnings (loss) before income taxes (9,964) n/m Provision for income taxes (3,737) n/m Net earnings (loss) (6,227) n/m EBITDA 2,997 17.4 (n/m - not meaningful comparison)
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS NET SALES Net sales increased $192,586 or 68.4% in the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 as compared to the corresponding period ended March 29, 1997. The net sales increase was primarily attributable to the acquisition of Delchamps, Inc. Same store sales decreased approximately 6.3% for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998. Same store sales were impacted by Easter being in March last year and April this year. In addition, sales for this quarter are matching up against strong sales for the same period last year due to the launching of a frequent shopper card in approximately 79 supermarkets in January 1997. Additionally, toward the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company launched the frequent shopper card in 52 Delchamps supermarkets and has launched the frequent shopper card in the remaining Delchamps stores subsequent to the end of the quarter. Another factor which affected sales included 17 stores which were sold or closed during the first quarter ended March 28, 1998 including 10 stores which were required to be sold by the Federal Trade Commission due to the Delchamps acquisition. The Company's store count at the end of the quarter was 200 supermarkets (20 discount stores, 169 conventional stores and 11 combination stores) and 53 gasoline stations as compared to 105 supermarkets (27 discount stores, 76 conventional stores and 2 combination stores) and 52 gasoline stations at March 29, 1997. GROSS PROFIT Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 increased $47,471 to $118,157, or 24.9% of net sales, compared to $70,686, or 25.1% of net sales, for the first quarter of fiscal 1997. Gross profit increased primarily due to the increase in net sales (due to the Delchamps acquisition). The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of net sales is principally due to having a different product mix this year compared to last year. DIRECT STORE EXPENSES Direct store expenses were $94,223 or 19.9% of net sales and $44,803 or 15.9% of net sales for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 and March 29, 1997, respectively. Direct store expenses increased primarily due to an increase in net sales (due to the Delchamps acquisition). The increase in direct store expenses as a percentage of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 was primarily in the areas of rent, labor and advertising 10 expense. Rent expense in the Delchamps stores is more than twice that of the other Company stores. The store labor increase as a percentage of sales was principally due to the Delchamps transition. The increase in advertising as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the launching of the frequent shopper card in the Delchamps stores and also attributable to running two advertising departments (one in Mobile, AL and the other in Jackson, MS) for part of the quarter. The advertising department in Mobile was closed in the first quarter of fiscal 1998. WAREHOUSE, ADMINISTRATIVE AND GENERAL EXPENSES Warehouse, administrative and general expenses were $17,382 or 3.7% of net sales and $16,246 or 5.8% of net sales for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 and March 29, 1997 respectively. The decrease in warehouse, administrative and general expenses as a percent of sales was primarily due to (i) additional sales, (ii) a decrease in warehouse costs as a result of the closing of the Hammond, LA distribution center during the quarter and (iii) a decrease in administrative expenses as a result of the closing of the Mobile headquarters (which was approximately 80% complete at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1998). SPECIAL CHARGES Special charges were $544 for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 consisting of severance benefits of $250 and loss on stores sold under the consent decree with the Federal Trade Commission in the Delchamps acquisition of $294. OPERATING INCOME Operating income was $6,552 or 1.4% of net sales for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 as compared to $9,637 or 3.4% of net sales for the twelve week period ended March 29, 1997. The decrease in operating income was due to the factors discussed above. EBITDA EBITDA (net income before interest income, special charges, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization and LIFO charges/credits) was $20,167 or 4.3% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 as compared to $17,170 or 6.1% of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. EBITDA increased primarily due to an increase in sales. EBITDA as presented is consistent with the definition used for covenant purposes contained in the Indenture. EBITDA is a widely accepted financial indicator of a company's ability to service debt. However, EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to operating income, net income or cash flows from operating activities (as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) and should not be construed as an indication of the Company's operating performance or as a measure of liquidity. NET INTEREST EXPENSE Interest expense was $14,690 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 as compared to $8,355 in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to interest expense on the $200 million Senior subordinated notes issued in September 1997. 11 INCOME TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT) Income taxes were ($3,260) with an effective tax rate of 37.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 and $477 with an effective tax rate of 37.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 1997. The decrease in income taxes was principally due to lower pretax earnings. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Historically, the Company has funded its working capital requirements, capital expenditures and other needs principally from operating cash flows. Due to the merger and acquisition of Delchamps, however, the Company has become highly leveraged and has certain restrictions on its operations. At March 28, 1998, Jitney-Jungle had $563,883 of total long-term debt (including capitalized leases and current installments) and a shareholders deficit of $175,273. The Company's principal uses of liquidity have been to fund working capital, meet debt service requirements and finance Jitney-Jungle's strategic plans. The Company's principal sources of liquidity have been cash flow from operations and borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. Outstanding borrowings at March 28, 1998 were $90,114 under the Senior Credit Facility. Cash used in operating activities during the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 was $18,618. Cash provided by operating activities during the twelve week period ended March 29, 1997 was $19,732. Accrued expenses decreased during the first quarter primarily due to the payment of interest on Senior Notes, Senior Subordinated Notes and the Senior Credit Facility. Inventories decreased due to the consolidation of the warehouses and the closure or sale of certain stores during the first quarter. Net cash used in investing activities was $18,005 and $2,748 for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 and March 29, 1997, respectively. Cash was primarily used for the purchase of Delchamps, Inc. and capital expenditures. Net cash provided by financing activities was $34,842 for the twelve week period ended March 28, 1998 and net cash used was $16,825 for the twelve week period ended March 29, 1997. The principal sources of funds in financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were the proceeds of principal on long-term debt. The principal uses of funds in financing activities for the first quarter of fiscal 1998 were the payment of capital lease obligations and restructuring obligations. The Company believes that capital expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 1998 will be financed through cash flows from operations and borrowings under its Senior Credit Facility. Capital expenditure plans are continuously evaluated and modified from time to time depending on cash availability and other economic factors. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
