6 THE J. H. HEAFNER COMPANY, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS EXCEPT SHARE AMOUNTS) 1. ORGANIZATION: The J. H. Heafner Company, Inc. (the Company), a North Carolina corporation, is engaged in the wholesale distribution of tires and tire accessories and the operation of retail tire and auto service stores. In May 1997, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of common stock of Oliver and Winston, Inc. (Winston), a California-based operation of retail tire and automotive service centers in California and Arizona. In May 1998, the Company merged with ITCO Logistics Corporation and Subsidiaries (ITCO), a wholesaler of tires and related accessories in the eastern part of the United States. Following the merger, ITCO's subsidiaries were merged into ITCO and ITCO was merged into the Company. Concurrent with the ITCO merger, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of common stock of The Speed Merchant, Inc. (CPW), a wholesaler and retailer of tires, parts and accessories located in California and Arizona. In January 1999, the Company acquired all outstanding shares of California Tire LLC (California Tire), a wholesaler and retailer of tires, parts and accessories located in California. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION: The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 1999, and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three months and six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company, the results of its operations and cash flows have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. The results of the operations for the three months ended and the six months ended June 30, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. 7 2 3. ACQUISITION: On January 12, 1999, Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the stockholders of California Tire, a wholesaler and retailer of tires, parts and accessories located in California. The total consideration paid to the stockholders was $3,950 in cash and an additional $118 in direct acquisition costs. The transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method. Accordingly, results of operations for the acquired business have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations from the January 12, 1999 acquisition date. A preliminary allocation of the purchase price has been recorded in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 1999, based on management's best estimate of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The excess of the purchase price over the net tangible assets acquired was allocated to goodwill and is being amortized over 15 years. 4. EXIT COSTS: In connection with the ITCO merger, the CPW acquisition and the Winston acquisition, the Company recorded a $3,516, $1,726 and $2,927 liability, respectively, for estimated costs related to employee severance, facilities closing expense and other related exit costs in accordance with EITF 95-3, "Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business Combination." Charges of approximately $256, $152 and $149, respectively were made against these reserves in the second quarter 1999. In the second quarter of 1998, the Company recorded special charges of $1,409 related to the restructuring of its southeastern wholesale business, which includes the closing of selected distribution centers commencing in the third quarter of 1998. The charges include lease commitments for certain distribution centers, asset writedowns, severance and employee related costs and costs to shut down certain facilities. In the second quarter of 1999, the Company charged approximately $112 against these reserves. 5. EXTRAORDINARY CHARGE: The Company recorded an extraordinary charge in the second quarter of 1998 related to the early extinguishment of debt resulting in noncash write-off of deferred financing fees and unamortized discounts of subordinated debt of $1,691, net of applicable income tax benefits of $1,128. The Company also had pre-payment penalties associated with the extinguishment of debt that resulted in a cash charge of $507, net of applicable income tax benefits of $338. 8 3 6. SEGMENT INFORMATION: The Company classifies its business interests into three fundamental areas: southeastern wholesale distribution of tires and products, western wholesale distribution of tires and products and western retail sales of tires, products and services. The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is profit (loss) before interest expense, income taxes, noncash amortization of intangible assets and depreciation (EBITDA). The operating results of the Company reflect the acquisitions of CPW and ITCO effective as of May 20, 1998 and California Tire effective as of January 12, 1999:

Depreciation and amortization for the three and six months ended June 30, 1998, as noted in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, includes $24 and $66, respectively, of amortization expense related to debt discount and $148 and $240, respectively of amortization expense related to deferred financing fees that is included in interest expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations. 9 4 7. SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR FINANCIAL INFORMATION: The Senior Notes are guaranteed on a full, unconditional and joint and several basis by all of the Company's direct subsidiaries, each of which is wholly owned. The combined summarized information of these subsidiaries is as follows:
AS OF AND FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 ----------------- Current assets $ 100,645 Noncurrent assets 147,953 Current liabilities 59,022 Noncurrent liabilities 7,285 Net sales 171,777 Gross profit 58,660 Net loss (1,383)
The above information excludes $45,010 of net intercompany payable and $29,071 of intercompany sales of the Company's subsidiary guarantors. In preparation of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, all intercompany accounts were eliminated. 8. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY: On May 24, 1999, Charlesbank Equity Fund IV, Limited Partnership, a Massachusetts limited partnership, purchased approximately 95.2% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock and approximately 96.8% of its issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock for a purchase price of approximately $44,000. In addition, in connection with this transaction, the Company issued 150,000 shares of Class A common stock to certain members of management. Approximately $1,087 in fees related to this transaction is reflected as a charge to retained earnings in the accompanying balance sheet. 10 5 9. STOCK OPTION PLAN In the second quarter of 1999, the Company adopted the 1999 Stock Option Plan (the 1999 Plan). The purpose of the 1999 Plan is to attract and retain employees (including officers), directors and independent contractors of the Company. The 1999 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 1,050,000 shares of Class A voting common stock to be issued to employees (including officers), directors and independent contractors of the Company under terms and conditions to be set by the Company's Board of Directors. In May 1999, the Company granted 500,000 options to various members of management at a fair value price of $9.00 per share. The options are divided into three tiers that vest over varying periods of time. All options expire 10 years from the date of grant. Under the 1999 Plan, no options vested and accordingly, no options were exercised at the end of the second quarter. 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Winston was named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit filed on June 10, 1998 in Los Angeles County Superior Court on behalf of Winston store managers. The lawsuit alleges that Winston violated certain California wage regulations and unfair business practices. The Company believes that Winston's operations, including its wage practices, fully comply with applicable California and federal legal requirements and that the plaintiffs' claims are without merit. The Company is vigorously defending the matter. Additionally, the Company is involved in various lawsuits arising out of the ordinary conduct of its business. Although no assurances can be given, management does not expect that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company. 11 ITEM 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis of the results of operations, financial condition and liquidity of the Company should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and related notes thereto. The Company acquired Competition Parts Warehouse ("CPW") on May 20, 1998 and California Tire on January 12, 1999, and merged with ITCO on May 20, 1998. Therefore, results for 1998 exclude the operations of California Tire, and include the operations for CPW and ITCO after May 20, 1998. Results of Operations The following table sets forth each category of statements of operations data as a percentage of net sales:
QUARTER SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, ENDED JUNE 30 ------------------ --------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net sales ....................................... 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of good sold ............................... 77.0 77.2 77.5 75.2 Gross profit .................................... 23.0 22.8 22.5 24.8 Selling, general and administrative expenses .... 20.3 22.0 20.6 23.9 Income from operations .......................... 2.6 0.9 1.9 0.9 Interest and other expense ......................

QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 Net sales for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 totaled $266.5 million, an increase of $111.7 million, or 72.2%, from sales in the second quarter of 1998 of $154.7 million. The inclusion of sales for ITCO, CPW, and California Tire accounted for over 90% of the increase in the second quarter of 1999. However, with the integration of operations between Heafner and ITCO in the Southeast, the exact effect cannot be determined. Each of the Company's divisions reported sales increases ranging from 5.4% upward, with an overall increase in net sales totaling 5.5% on a pro-forma basis. Gross profit was $61.2 million in the second quarter of 1999, an increase of $25.8 million, or 73.1%, from $35.3 million in the corresponding quarter in 1998. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 23.0% and 22.8%, respectively. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily due to the inclusion of the acquired operations. 12 Selling, general and administrative expenses were $54.1 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1999, an increase of $20.1 million, or 59.1%, from $34.0 million in second quarter of 1998. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 20.3% and 22.0%, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 1999 was primarily due to the inclusion of the acquired operations. The decrease in selling, general and administrative costs as a percent of sales was due to a significantly higher proportion of distribution sales, which have lower expense percentages than retail operations. Offsetting this business mix change somewhat was slightly higher selling and administrative costs in the Company's distribution operations as a percent of sales. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was a restructuring charge of $1.4 million related to costs to be incurred by Heafner in the consolidation of distribution and corporate office facilities and integration of management information systems. Interest and other expense increased from $2.8 million in the second quarter of 1998 to $5.0 million in the second quarter this year. Interest expense increased by $2.7 million in the second quarter of 1999 as a result of increased borrowings incurred in connection with the acquisitions of ITCO, CPW, and California Tire, increased utilization of anticipation discounts on inventory purchases, and special inventory programs offered by vendors. Income taxes on pre-tax income were $1.8 million in the quarter ended June 30, 1999 compared to $(0.5) in the corresponding quarter last year. The effective income tax rates were 90.1% and 38.8% in the second quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The tax provision for the second quarter 1999 takes into account non-deductible goodwill amortization expense for income tax purposes. Net income for the second quarter of 1999 was $0.2 million, or 0.1% of net sales compared to a net loss of $(3.2) million, or (2.1)% of net sales in the corresponding quarter in 1998. The net loss for 1998 includes an extraordinary charge of $3.7 million ($2.2 million net of taxes) for the write-off of unamortized financing expenses and discounts and the payment of prepayment penalties related to the early extinguishment of debt. SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 1999 totaled $505.8 million, an increase of $262.4 million, or 107.8%, from sales for the same period of 1998 of $243.4 million. The inclusion of sales for ITCO, CPW, and California Tire accounted for over 90% of the increase in the six months of 1999. However, with the integration of 13 operations between Heafner and ITCO in the Southeast, the exact effect cannot be determined. The overall increase in net sales totaled 7.7% on a pro-forma basis. Gross profit was $113.9 million in the six months of 1999, an increase of $53.5 million, or 88.6%, from $60.4 million in the corresponding six months in 1998. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit was 22.5% and 24.8%, respectively. The increase in gross profit dollars was primarily due to the inclusion of the acquired operations. The decrease in overall gross margins in 1999 was due to a significantly higher proportion of distribution sales in the current year, which carry lower gross margins than retail sales. The percentage of distribution sales to total sales was in excess of 80% in the first six months of 1999, versus just over 71% in the first six months of 1998. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $104.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of $46.0 million, or 79.1%, from $58.2 million in six months of 1998. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses were 20.6% and 23.9%, respectively. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 1999 was primarily due to the inclusion of the acquired operations. The decrease in selling, general and administrative costs as a percent of sales was due to a significant higher proportion of distribution sales, which have lower expense percentages than retail operations. Offsetting this business mix change somewhat was slightly higher selling and administrative costs in the Company's distribution operations as a percent of sales. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 1998 was a restructuring charge of $1.4 million related to costs to be incurred by Heafner in the consolidation of distribution and corporate office facilities and integration of management information systems. Interest and other expense increased from $4.5 million in the six months of 1998 to $9.7 million in the six months this year. Interest expense increased by $6.2 million in the six months of 1999 as a result of increased borrowings incurred in connection with the acquisitions of ITCO, CPW, and California Tire, increased utilization of anticipation discounts on inventory purchases, and special inventory programs offered by vendors. Income taxes on pre-tax income were $1.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $(0.8) in the corresponding six months last year. The effective income tax rates were 989.0% and 36.8% in the six months of 1999 and 1998, respectively after taking into account non-deductible goodwill amortization expense for income tax purposes for the first six months of 1999. The net loss for the six months of 1999 was $(1.0) million, or (0.2)% of net sales compared to a net loss of $(3.6) million, or (1.5)% of net sales in the corresponding period in 1998. The net loss for 1998 includes an extraordinary charge of $3.7 million ($2.2 million net of taxes) for the write-off of unamortized financing expenses and discounts and the payment of prepayment penalties related to the early extinguishment of debt. 14 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Financing committed by the lenders under the Company's revolving line of credit is $100.0 million, approximately $68.3 million of which was drawn as of June 30, 1999. The Company's principal source of cash during the quarter ended June 30, 1999 was from borrowings under the revolving credit facility. The Company's principal source of cash during the quarter ended June 30, 1998 was the $100 million senior notes issue. Cash used in operating activities totaled $20.9 million and $3.6 million in the second quarter of 1999 and 1998, respectively. Increases in inventories due to expanded product lines, special vendor programs, and seasonal stocking totaled $14.0 million in 1999. In the second quarter of 1999, accounts receivable increased by $20.1 million due primarily to increased sales volumes and to a lesser extent to restructured credit accounts as Heafner and Itco continue merging the Southeast operations. Capital expenditures during the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and 1998 amounted to $3.4 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Capital spending during the second quarter of 1999 was primarily for new equipment in retail operations, acquisition of new retail locations, and expansion of distribution warehouses. During the second quarter, Charlesbank Capital purchased substantially all of the stock of the Company held by members of the Gaither family and former stockholders of Itco. As a result, they own in excess of 90% of the outstanding Class A and B common stock. This transaction with Charlesbank provides the Company with sources of additional equity for future acquisitions. The Company anticipates that its principal use of cash going forward will be working capital requirements, debt service requirements, and capital expenditures. In addition, the Company expects to pay $5.0 million relating to consolidation of warehouse and office facilities, severance obligations, and other exit costs over the next twelve months. Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, the Company believes that its cash flow from operations, together with amounts available under the revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet its anticipated requirements. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company's business will continue to generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future to service its debt, and the Company may be required to refinance all or a portion of its existing debt, or to obtain additional financing. These increased borrowings may result in higher interest payments. In addition, there can be no assurance that any such refinancing would be possible or that any additional financing could be obtained. The inability to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company. 15 YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE Portions of some of the accounting and operational systems and software used by Heafner in its business identify years with two digits instead of four. If not corrected, these information technology systems may recognize the year 2000 as the year 1900, which might cause system failures or inaccurate reporting of data that disrupts operations. Heafner has completed an internal assessment of all of the business applications and related software used in its information technology systems, including those of ITCO, CPW and California Tire, in order to identify where "Year 2000" problems exist. As a result of this review, Heafner believes that all of its information technology systems and software either are Year 2000 compliant or can be brought into compliance by October of 1999, although there can be no assurance that any required remediation will be completed in a timely manner. In addition, Heafner is contacting non-information technology vendors to ensure that any of their products currently used in Heafner's business adequately address Year 2000 issues. Areas being reviewed include warehouse equipment, telephone and voice mail systems, security systems and other office and site support systems. Though there can be no assurance, Heafner believes based on its review that Year 2000 problems in its non-information technology systems will not cause a material disruption in Heafner's business. Heafner also may be vulnerable to business interruptions caused by unremedied Year 2000 problems of its significant suppliers of products or services. Heafner has initiated formal communications with significant suppliers, including the country's major tire manufacturers, to determine the extent to which Heafner's operations may be affected by such third parties' Year 2000 non-compliance. Each of the major tire manufacturers has informed Heafner that it anticipates no disruption of tire supply or provision of significant business information as a result of Year 2000 problems. Heafner's wholesale and retail customer base is highly fragmented, with no single customer accounting for a significant portion of Heafner's business. Accordingly, although it has not attempted to survey its customers, Heafner believes that no significant risk exists in connection with Year 2000 problems on the part of any of its customers. Heafner does not expect the historical and estimated costs associated with bringing its information technology and non-information technology systems into Year 2000 compliance, including software modification, equipment replacement and payments to outside solution providers, to be material. However, if Year 2000 issues in Heafner's information technology and non-information technology systems are not remedied in a timely manner, or if Year 2000 problems on the part of Heafner's customers and suppliers exist and are not remedied in a timely manner, there can be no assurance that significant business interruptions or increased costs having a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of Heafner will not occur in connection with the change in century. Risks of Year 2000 non-compliance on the part of Heafner or any of its significant suppliers could include interruptions in supply from tire manufacturers, disruption of Heafner's internal and external distribution network, reduced customer service capabilities, breakdown of inventory control and fulfillment systems and impairment of essential information technology systems used by management. Heafner 16 has not established nor does it plan to establish a contingency plan for Year 2000 compliance issues. FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE RESULTS The preceding Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements that relate to the company's future plans, objectives, estimates, and goals. These statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, among others, the ability of the Company to; maintain existing relationships with long standing vendors; successfully implement its business strategy; integrate the new divisions; and market and sell new products. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any of the forward-looking statements included herein. ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The Company does not consider its exposure to market risk to be material. PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings The Company's Winston subsidiary was named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit filed on June 10, 1998 in Los Angeles Superior Court on behalf on Winston store managers. The lawsuit alleges that Winston violated certain California wage regulation and unfair business practices. The Company believes that Winston's operations, including its wage practices, fully comply with applicable California and federal legal requirements and that the plaintiff's claims are without merit. The Company is vigorously defending the matter. In addition the Company is involved in various lawsuits arising out of the ordinary conduct of its business. Although no assurances can be given, management does not expect that any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
