The Penn Traffic Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of The Penn Traffic Company and subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim periods ended August 4, 2007 are not necessarily an indication of results to be expected for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2008. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2008.

The balance sheet as of February 3, 2007 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of such date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal year 2008 is the 52-week period ended February 2, 2008. Fiscal year 2007 is the 53-week period ended February 3, 2007. The information presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q is for the quarter beginning May 6, 2007 and ending August 4, 2007.

All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 2 – Voluntary Bankruptcy Filing and Reorganization

On May 30, 2003, The Penn Traffic Company and all of its subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. The filing was made in response to pending defaults under the Company’s then-existing loan agreements and a lack of liquidity to continue operations. Under Chapter 11, the Company continued to operate its businesses as debtor-in-possession under court protection from its creditors and claimants, while using the Chapter 11 process to substantially reduce its debt obligations and implement a plan of reorganization.

On February 2, 2005, the Company filed the First Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (the “Plan”) with the bankruptcy court. The Plan was confirmed on March 17, 2005 and became effective on April 13, 2005 (the “Effective Date”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Plan, the following transactions occurred on or around the Effective Date:

1. The Company entered into new credit agreements providing for borrowings of up to $164 million. Proceeds from these new credit agreements provided funds sufficient to repay a debtor-in-possession credit facility and all administrative and priority claims to the extent provided for in the Plan.

2. The Company sold and leased back its five owned distribution facilities for a sales price of approximately $37 million.

3. All shares of common stock and all stock options and warrants outstanding prior to the confirmation of the Plan were cancelled and the holders of such equity securities received no distributions under the Plan.

4. The reorganized Company was authorized to issue new shares of common stock to unsecured creditors, which included holders of $100 million of senior notes, a claim by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation or the (“PBGC”) of $60 million and trade claims, all of whom were eligible to receive pro rata distributions of new shares of common stock and the right to share in potential proceeds from certain causes of action.

Pursuant to the provisions of Statement of Position 90-7 “Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code” (“SOP 90-7”) issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, the Company adopted fresh-start reporting which resulted in a new reporting entity and a new basis of accounting.

Although April 13, 2005 was the effective date of the Plan, the Company chose April 16, 2005 as the effective date for accounting purposes to adopt fresh-start reporting because of the proximity of that date to the end of an accounting period. Applying fresh-start reporting as of April 16, 2005 rather than the actual effective date of April 13, 2005 did not have a material effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

Note 3 – Per Share Data

Basic and diluted net loss per share is based on the number of common shares issued and estimated to be issued pursuant to the Plan. Common shares issued and estimated to be issued in settlement of claims filed in the Company’s Chapter 11 proceeding are treated as outstanding as of the effective date of the Plan. At both August 4, 2007 and February 3, 2007, 201,055 common shares are estimated to be issued in connection with the settlement of remaining claims.

Note 4 – Liabilities Subject to Compromise

In connection with the Chapter 11 proceeding, there are two pending matters involving claims for the payment of money or the transfer of property. In one matter, the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (“OBWC”) has filed priority and administrative claims aggregating $13.4 million for pre-petition unpaid workers’ compensation premiums and for reserves to pay future claims arising from existing injuries. The OBWC has also filed claims aggregating $1.8 million for alleged non-payment of post-petition premiums and for reserves to pay future claims arising from existing injuries. The Company disputes the amounts of the claims, and is attempting to negotiate a settlement.

In another matter, a claimant has filed a priority claim allegedly arising under an agreement for a sale-leaseback transaction seeking either damages of $2.2 million or specific performance of the agreement. The Company disputes the merits of the claim and is defending against it.

During the period ended August 4, 2007, the Company paid $0.2 million, in settlement of disputed claims. The Company has established liabilities for the estimated cash payments required to settle the remaining claims outstanding in the Chapter 11 proceedings. Estimated shares of common stock to be issued in settlement of claims have been accounted for as stockholders’ equity.

Note 5 – Long Term Debt

On August 1, 2007, the Company’s revolving credit and term loan facility and the supplemental real estate credit facility were amended to permit the disposal of assets in connection with the closing of two additional stores. Further, the availability amount, which the Company is required to maintain under certain financial covenants, was reduced to less than $27.5 million for four consecutive days or less than $25 million for any one day.

Based on the original maturity date of April 13, 2008, amounts due under the revolving credit and term loan facility and the supplemental real estate credit facility have been classified as current maturities in the accompanying balance sheet as of May 5, 2007. In March 2008, the maturity date of both facilities was extended to April 13, 2009. See Note 7 to the financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended February 2, 2008 for additional information.

Note 6 – Acquisitions and Dispositions

In March and April 2006, the Company acquired two retail stores for an aggregate purchase price of $1.5 million. The cost of the acquisitions was allocated $0.5 million to inventories and $1.0 million to equipment.

In January 2007, the Company announced the closing of a leased distribution center used for the distribution of general merchandise and health and beauty products. At the same time, the Company entered into a five-year supply agreement with a third party to provide the merchandise previously distributed from the distribution center. In connection with the announced closing, in January 2007, the Company recorded a liability of $1.4 million for termination benefits which were communicated to the distribution center’s employees at such time. The Company ceased use of the facility in March 2007, at which time the Company recorded a liability of $1.9 million, representing the present value of the remaining lease rentals reduced by estimated sublease rentals that could be reasonably obtained for the distribution center. In addition, in March 2007, the Company sold its remaining inventory located in the distribution center to the third party at current cost. The carrying value of such inventory at February 3, 2007 was approximately $4.8 million.

No stores were closed during the quarters ended August 4, 2007 and July 29, 2006 and the 6-months ended August 4, 2007 and July 29, 2006.

Note 7 – Pension Plans

The Company has four noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain union personnel. The Company’s policy is to fund pension benefits to the extent contributions are deductible for tax purposes and in compliance with federal laws and regulations. For the Company’s plans, normal retirement age is either 62 or 65, but provisions are made for earlier retirement. Benefits are determined either on average annual compensation and years of service, or as a pre-determined amount for each year of service. Full vesting occurs upon completion of five years of service. Assets of the Company’s pension plans primarily consist of investments in publicly traded equity and debt securities.

The components of net periodic benefit cost for the year to date ended August 4, 2007 and July 29, 2006 is as follows (in thousands):

	Year to Date			Year to Date
	August 4, 2007			July 29, 2006
	(Unaudited)

Service cost	$	990		$	991
Interest cost	3,118			2,988
Expected return on plan assets	(3,193		)	(2,988		)
Amount of recognized gain	(59		)	—

	$	856		$	991

For the 6 months ended August 4, 2007 and July 29, 2006, the Company contributed $3.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, to the four defined benefit pension plans.

Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies

The United States Attorney for the Northern District of New York and the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) have been conducting investigations relating to the Company’s promotional allowance practices and policies. Such investigations began prior to the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy in April 2005. The Company has been cooperating with these investigations and has produced documents and made Company employees available for interviews as requested.

On June 1, 2006, the Company announced that the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors had completed its internal investigation of the Company’s promotional allowance practices. The Audit Committee hired independent counsel to perform the investigation. The Audit Committee found that the Company had engaged in certain improper practices principally relating to the premature recognition of promotional allowances and that these practices had largely ceased by the time of the Company’s Chapter 11 filing in May 2003. On February 3, 2006, the Company announced that the employment of the Company’s Chief Marketing Officer and the Company’s Vice President, Non-Perishables Marketing had been terminated following an interim report to the Audit Committee on the findings of the investigation.

On September 17, 2007, the SEC filed civil fraud charges against the Company’s former Chief Marketing Officer and former Vice President, Non-Perishables Marketing alleging that such individuals orchestrated a scheme to inflate the Company’s income and other financial results by prematurely recognizing promotional allowances received from vendors from approximately the second quarter of fiscal year 2001 through at least the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2003. The complaint further alleges that the individuals deceived the Company’s accounting personnel to carry out their fraudulent scheme and aided and abetted the Company’s violations of the Exchange Act of 1934 and rules thereunder. In addition, on the same date, the United States Attorney for the Northern District of New York announced that a federal grand jury has returned an indictment against the abovementioned individuals on related criminal charges. Both the SEC and the United States Attorney indicated that their investigations are continuing.

In connection with these matters, the Company could be subject to damage claims, fines or penalties. At present, the Company is unable to estimate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or the amount of any damage claims, fines or penalties in the event of an unfavorable outcome and, accordingly, no liability has been recorded for this contingency.

Note 9 – Issuance of Stock

On May 14, 2007, the Company granted an aggregate of 22,685 shares of phantom stock to five non-officer directors. On the settlement date, which is the earlier of when the individual ceases to be a member of the Company’s Board of Directors or upon the occurrence of a change in control, the awards provide for payment in cash of the value of an equivalent number of shares of common stock. The awards were fully vested upon the grant date, and the Company recorded a compensation charge with a corresponding liability for the fair value of the awards at date of grant totaling $0.5 million. The liability will be adjusted based on changes in value of the Company’s common stock, with a corresponding adjustment to compensation expense, at each period to settlement date.

Note 10 – Segment Information

The Company operates in two segments – the retail food business and the wholesale food distribution business. The retail food business consists of supermarkets which the Company operates. The wholesale food distribution business supplies independent supermarkets and other independent wholesale accounts with food and related products and other services.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction

We operate or supply more than 200 supermarkets in Upstate New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont and New Hampshire. We operate in two segments. Our retail food business includes corporate-owned stores with the “BiLo”, “P&C” and “Quality” trade names, and our wholesale food distribution business supplies independently operated supermarkets and other wholesale accounts.

Our primary objective is to improve our long-term financial performance and enhance the in-store experience of our customers. Under the direction of our new senior team (formed in fiscal year 2007), we are focusing on rebuilding our core business. This means re-establishing basic disciplines and reemphasizing and instilling a much stronger profitable growth culture around sales and margin.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth certain Consolidated Statement of Operations components expressed as percentages of revenues for the quarter and year to date ended August 4, 2007 and the quarter and year to date ended July 29, 2006.

Fiscal Year 2008 (the Quarter Ended August 4, 2007) and Fiscal Year 2007 (the Quarter Ended July 29, 2006)

Revenues

Revenues for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 decreased to $322.9 million from $338.2 million for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The $15.3 million decrease in revenues was mainly attributable to a reduction in the number of our corporate-owned stores, a decline in same store sales and a decrease in wholesale food distribution revenues.

Same store sales for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 decreased 0.6% compared to the quarter ended July 29, 2006.

Wholesale food distribution revenues for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 decreased $3.1 million, or 5.4%, to $54.0 million, or 16.7% of total revenues, from $57.1 million, or 16.9% of total revenues, for the quarter ended August 4, 2007. The decrease in the wholesale food distribution revenues of $3.1 million was attributable to the loss of certain wholesale customers.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $87.3 million, or 27.0% of revenues, for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 compared to $85.9 million, or 25.4% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The increase was a result of increased sales of higher margin private label and signature products.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 were $87.7 million, or 27.1% of revenues compared to $83.4 million, or 24.7% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to an increase in audit and professional fees and outside services.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $6.9 million, or 2.1% of revenues, for the quarter ended August 4, 2007, compared to $6.6 million, or 2.0% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The increase in depreciation and amortization during the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was primarily due to additional depreciation from assets placed in service in fiscal year 2007.

Operating Loss

Operating loss for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was $0.4 million, or 0.1% of revenues, compared to the operating income of $2.5 million, or 0.7% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was $2.5 million, or 0.8% of revenues, compared to $2.4 million, or 0.7% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The $0.1 million increase in interest expense for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was due to an increase in our average borrowings under our credit facilities.

Reorganization and Other Expenses

Reorganization expense for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was $1.9 million, or 0.6% of revenues, compared to reorganization expense of $0.1 million, or 0.0% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The $1.8 million increase was primarily attributable to $1.6 million, of expense related to a proposed acquisition that was not consummated.

Net Loss

Net loss for the quarter ended August 4, 2007 was $4.9 million, or 1.5% of revenues, compared to a net loss of less than $0.1 million, or 0.0% of revenues, for the quarter ended July 29, 2006. The increase in net loss of $4.9 million during the quarter ended August 4, 2007 is primarily attributable to the increase in selling and administrative expenses as explained above and the $1.6 million of expenses incurred on a proposed acquisition that was not consummated.

Fiscal Year 2008 (the Year to Date Ended August 4, 2007) and Fiscal Year 2007 (the Year to Date Ended July 29, 2006)

Revenues

Revenues for the year to date ended August 4, 2007 decreased to $624.9 million from $648.6 million for the year to date ended July 29, 2006. The $23.7 million decrease in revenues was mainly attributable to a reduction in the number of our corporate-owned stores, a decline in same store sales and a decrease in wholesale food distribution revenues.

Year to date same store sales as of August 4, 2007 declined 0.2% from the year to date sales as of July 29, 2006.

Wholesale food distribution revenues for year to date ended August 4, 2007 decreased $4.5 million, or 4.1% to $104.5 million, or 16.7% of total revenues, from $109.0 million, or 16.8% of total revenues, for year to date ended August 4, 2007. The decrease in the wholesale food distribution revenues of $4.5 million was attributable to the loss of certain wholesale customers.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $168.1 million, or 26.9% of revenues, for year to date ended August 4, 2007, compared to $163.9 million, or 25.3% of revenues, for year to date ended July 29, 2006. The increase was a result of increased sales of higher margin private label and signature products.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

Selling and administrative expenses for year to date ended August 4, 2007 were $171.4 million, or 27.4% of revenues, compared to $166.6 million, or 25.7% of revenues, for year to date ended July 29, 2006. The increase in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue was principally due to an increase in audit and professional fees and outside services.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense was $13.8 million, or 2.2% of revenues, for year to date ended August 4, 2007, compared to $13.0 million, or 2.0% of revenues. The increase in depreciation and amortization during the year to date ended August 4, 2007 was primarily due to additional depreciation from assets placed in service in fiscal year 2007.

Loss on Store and Distribution Center Closings

Loss on store and distribution center closings for the year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $1.9 million, or 0.3% of revenues, representing the net present value of the remaining lease rentals associated with the closed distribution center. For the year to date ended July 29, 2006 no store closing costs were incurred.

Operating Loss

Operating loss for year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $5.3 million, or 0.8% of revenues, compared to the operating loss of $2.7 million, or 0.4% of revenues, for year to date ended July 29, 2006.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $4.8 million, or 0.8% of revenues, compared to $4.4 million, or 0.7% of revenues, for year to date ended July 29, 2006. The $0.4 million increase in interest expense for year to date ended August 4, 2007 was due to an increase in our average borrowings under our credit facility.

Net Loss

Net loss for the year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $12.3 million, or 1.9% of revenues, compared to a net loss of $7.5 million, or 1.1% of revenues, during the year to date ended July 29, 2006. The increase in net loss of $4.8 million during the year to date ended August 4, 2007 is primarily attributable to increases in selling and administrative expenses as explained above, distribution center closing costs of $1.9 million and $1.6 million of expenses incurred on a proposed transaction that was not consummated, partially offset by a $6.5 million increase in gross profit.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of August 4, 2007, we had cash and cash equivalents of $21.1 million and total debt outstanding of $64.2 million. In addition, we have the ability to draw down on our revolving credit facilities. We believe our borrowing capability under our credit facilities provides the necessary liquidity to operate our business, invest in our core retail store portfolio, improve our customers’ shopping experience, and improve our overall offering in the market served.

Financial Results

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities for year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $1.6 million, as compared to cash provided by operating activities of $10.8 million for year to date ended July 29, 2006. For year to date ended August 4, 2007, we incurred a net loss of $12.3 million, adjustments for non cash items of $13.6 million, and a net increase in operating net assets of $2.9 million. For year to date ended July 29, 2006, we incurred a net loss of $7.5 million, adjustments for non-cash items of $13.6 million and a net decrease in operating net assets of $4.7 million.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for year to date ended August 4, 2007 and the year to date ended July 29, 2006 were $1.0 million and $17.2 million, respectively. The $16.2 million reduction was due to lower capital expenditures ($1.9 million for the year to date ended August 4, 2007 as compared to $17.2 million for the year to date ended July 29, 2006) and $1.0 million in proceeds from sales of fixed assets for year to date ended August 4, 2007.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities for year to date ended August 4, 2007 was $1.0 million. For year to date ended July 29, 2006, cash provided by financing activities was $3.1 million. The $4.1 million difference was primarily due to no borrowing under our revolving credit facility for year to date ended August 4, 2007 as compared to $3.9 million of net borrowings under our revolving credit facility for year to date ended July 29, 2006.

Borrowings

On April 13, 2005, upon emergence from Chapter 11 proceedings, we entered into a revolving credit and term loan facility with a group of financial institutions providing for a $130.0 million revolving credit facility and a $6.0 million term loan. Also on April 13, 2005, we entered into a supplemental real estate credit facility with another group of lenders, providing for term loan borrowings of up to $28.0 million. Availability under both credit facilities is dependent on levels of accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets. Interest rates on borrowings under the revolving credit facility vary depending upon the amount of availability. At August 4, 2007, outstanding borrowings under both facilities aggregated $48.5 million. At such date, availability in excess of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit was approximately $40.2 million. Borrowings under the revolving credit and term loan facility are secured by substantially all of our assets, subject to priority liens on certain properties by other lenders. Borrowings under the real estate facility are secured by a first lien on substantially all of our leasehold interests and a second lien on substantially all of our remaining assets. At August 4, 2007, we had stand-by letters of credit of approximately $48.3 million. Many of these stand-by letters of credit were required upon emergence from bankruptcy and as a result of our inability to file financial statements.

Provisions of both credit facilities, among other things, require the maintenance of certain financial covenants (when availability under the credit facilities is less than $35 million for four consecutive days or less than $30 million for any one day), and limit the amount of capital expenditures, our assumption of additional debt and our payment of dividends. At no time through August 4, 2007 had we been subject to compliance with these financial covenants because the annual available for borrowing had not dropped to these levels. However, had such an event occurred, we would not have been in compliance with the financial covenants and would have been in default under the terms of the loan agreement at August 4, 2007.

Pursuant to our plan of reorganization, we entered into a collateral trust agreement with the collateral trustee in connection with the secured trade lien program. The secured trade lien program is with certain of our vendors and allows us to maintain trade terms.

On December 26, 2006, August 1, 2007 and January 30, 2008, both the revolving credit and term loan facility and the supplemental real estate credit facility were amended to permit the disposal of assets in connection with the closing of certain stores. In March 2008, the maturity date of both facilities were extended to April 13, 2009. See Note 7 to the financial statements included in the annual report on Form 10-K for year ended February 2, 2008 for additional information.

We also have $4.1 million of borrowings under mortgages secured by the related properties as of August 4, 2007.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our financial results are subject to risk from interest rate changes on debt that has variable interest rates. Total variable rate debt outstanding under our loan agreements at August 4, 2007 was $48.5 million, with a weighted average interest rate of 11.6%. A 1% change in interest rates would impact annual pre-tax income by $0.5 million based on the debt outstanding at August 4, 2007. In addition to the variable rate debt we had $4.1 million of fixed rate debt outstanding at August 4, 2007, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.65%. We view the fixed rate debt as a partial hedge against interest rate fluctuations..

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures under Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) are those controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rule and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, our management evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers. Based on their current observations combined with observations by the disclosure committee, which is comprised of members of management, members of the audit committee and external counsel, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of August 4, 2007, in providing reasonable assurance that material information requiring disclosure was brought to management’s attention on a timely basis and that our financial reporting was reliable.

Change in our Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In May 2007, we hired an outside consulting firm to assist management in its evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, including disclosure controls and procedures. As of August 4, 2007 they had not completed their evaluation. They are using the framework established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
