The accompanying notes are an integral part of these unaudited consolidated statements. 8 REX STORES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS April 30, 2001 Note 1. Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to state fairly the information set forth therein. Any such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is suggested that these unaudited consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2001 (fiscal 2000). Note 2. Accounting Policies The interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies described in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K. While management believes that the procedures followed in the preparation of interim financial information are reasonable, the accuracy of some estimated amounts is dependent upon facts that will exist or calculations that will be accomplished at fiscal year end. Examples of such estimates include changes in the LIFO reserve (based upon the Company's best estimate of inflation to date), management bonuses and the provision for income taxes. Any adjustments pursuant to such estimates during the quarter were of a normal recurring nature. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with their fiscal 2001 presentation. 9 Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) Note 3. Stock Option Plans The following summarizes options granted, exercised and canceled or expired during the three months ended April 30, 2001:

Note 4. Subsequent Event Effective May 31, 2001, the Company sold its remaining 8% interest in one of its synthetic fuel limited partnership investments. The Company expects to receive cash payments from the sale on a quarterly basis through 2007. The payments will range from 74.25% to 82.5% of the federal income tax credits attributable to the 8% interest sold, calculated annually, depending upon synthetic fuel sales levels of the partnership. 10 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We are a leading specialty retailer in the consumer electronics/appliance industry. As of April 30, 2001 we operated 264 stores in 37 states, predominantly in small to medium sized markets under the trade name "REX". Fiscal Year All references in this report to a particular fiscal year are to REX's fiscal year ended January 31. For example, "fiscal 2001" means the period February 1, 2001 to January 31, 2002. Results of Operations The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the relative percentages that certain income and expense items bear to net sales:
Three Months Ended April 30 2001 2000 Net sales 100.0% 100.0% Cost of merchandise sold 72.5 73.2 ----- ----- Gross profit 27.5 26.8 Selling, general and administrative expenses 24.7 23.0 ----- ----- Income from operations 2.8 3.8 Investment income 0.1 0.2 Interest expense (1.9) (1.1) Income from limited partnerships 3.0 1.1 ----- ----- Income before provision for income taxes 4.0 4.0 Provision for income taxes 1.0 1.0 ----- ----- Net income 3.0% 3.0% ===== =====
11 Comparison of Three Months Ended April 30, 2001 and 2000 Net sales in the first quarter ended April 30, 2001 were $104.2 million compared to $107.2 million in the prior year's comparable period, representing a decrease of $3.0 million or 2.8%. This decrease was caused by a decline in comparable store sales of 13.3%, partially offset by the sales contributed from the 29 net additional stores since the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2000. We believe the decline in comparable store sales was largely caused by the slowing of the economy. All product categories contributed to the negative comparable store sales. The television category contributed 6.8%, the appliance category contributed 3.1%, the video and audio categories each contributed 1.4% and the other category contributed 0.6%. As of April 30, 2001, we had 264 stores compared to 235 stores one year earlier. We opened four stores and closed two during the first quarter of fiscal 2001. There was one store opened and four closed during the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Gross profit of $28.6 million (27.5% of net sales) in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was 0.3% lower than the $28.7 million (26.8% of net sales) recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The improved gross profit margin percentage is primarily due to better buying opportunities and a continued shift in product mix to the higher gross profit margin categories such as large screen televisions. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended April 30, 2001 were $25.7 million (24.7% of net sales), a 4.2% increase from $24.6 million (23.0% of net sales) for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The increase in expense is primarily caused by the increased advertising and store expenses associated with the net increase of 29 stores since April 30, 2000. Interest expense was $2.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 versus $1.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The increase in expense is primarily due to an increased amount of mortgage debt outstanding on company owned store locations. We reported investment income of $3.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 versus $1.2 million for the prior year comparable period from our investment in two synthetic fuel limited partnerships. During the first quarter of the current year we reported income of $1.8 million from the 1999 sale of a portion of our interest in one partnership and $1.3 million from the 2000 sale of an additional portion of the interest. During the first quarter of fiscal 2000 we reported income of $1.2 million from the 1999 sale. 12 Our effective tax rate was 25% for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and 2000 after reflecting our share of federal income tax credits earned by the limited partnerships. As a result of the foregoing, net income was $3.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, versus $3.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Net cash used in operating activities was $2.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, compared to usage of $10.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. For the first quarter of fiscal 2001, cash was provided by net income of $3.1 million, adjusted for the impact of a $3.1 million gain on our installment sales of the limited partnership interest and non-cash items of $777,000 which consisted of deferred income and depreciation and amortization. Cash was also provided by an increase of $5.2 million in accounts payable and a decrease of $2.5 million in accounts receivable. The primary uses of cash were an increase of $8.0 million in inventory due to seasonal air conditioner purchases and other inventory purchases and a decrease of $2.5 million in other liabilities primarily due to the timing of payment for compensation and taxes. At April 30, 2001, working capital was $82.0 million compared to $83.7 million at January 31, 2001. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.9 to 1 at April 30, 2001 and 2.0 to 1 at January 31, 2001. Capital expenditures through April 30, 2001 totaled $849,000 and primarily relate to the construction expenditures associated with planned fiscal 2001 store openings. We received proceeds of $3.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 from installment sales of a portion of our ownership interest in a limited partnership. Cash provided by financing activities totaled approximately $1.3 million. Cash was provided by borrowings of $5.8 million on the line of credit during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and proceeds of $4.4 million from long-term debt borrowings related to mortgage financing for five stores. A total of approximately $90.8 million was available for borrowing on the line of credit as of April 30, 2001. Cash was used to purchase 433,000 shares of our common stock for approximately $8.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2001. As of April 30, 2001 we had authorization from our board of directors to purchase an additional 271,800 shares. Cash was also used for payments on long-term debt of $1.1 million. 13 Forward-Looking Statements This Form 10-Q contains or may contain forward-looking statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
