5 THE PEP BOYS - MANNY, MOE & JACK AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1. Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The consolidated balance sheets as of November 2, 2002, the consolidated statements of earnings for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 and the consolidated statements of cash flows for the thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001 have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at November 2, 2002 and for all periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's February 2, 2002 annual report to shareholders. The results of operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation. NOTE 2. Merchandise Inventories Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost (last-in, first-out) or market. If the first-in, first-out method of valuing inventories had been used by the Company, the inventory valuation difference would have been immaterial on both November 2, 2002 and February 2, 2002. NOTE 3. Profit Enhancement Plan In the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company comprehensively reviewed its field, distribution, and Store Support Center infrastructure and the performance of each of its stores. As a result, the Company implemented a number of changes that have improved its performance. These changes included the closure of 38 under-performing stores and two distribution centers and reductions in store operating hours and the Store Support Center infrastructure. PLAN UPDATE The Company is progressing towards the disposal of the 38 stores (11 owned and 27 leased), two distribution centers and two development parcels that were closed or abandoned in connection with the Profit Enhancement Plan. As of November 2, 2002, the Company had disposed of 20 of the closed stores, the two distribution centers and the two development parcels. In the second quarter 2002, the Company decided to lease rather than sell two of the closed stores due to changes in the real estate market. As a result, the Company reclassified these two owned properties as assets held for use. The Company estimates that the remaining closed stores (three owned and 13 leased) will be disposed of by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. 6 ASSETS HELD FOR DISPOSAL As of November 2, 2002, the assets held for disposal included the building and land of the three remaining closed stores owned by the Company, which have a carrying value of $4,332,000. The Company has sold eight of the 13 owned properties originally held for sale, which included the two development parcels. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decided to lease rather than sell two of the closed stores due to changes in the real estate market. As a result, the Company reclassified these two owned properties as assets held for use at their estimated market values of $1,688,000 and $1,507,000. The market value of each such property was lower than cost adjusted for depreciation. The Company is actively marketing the remaining three closed stores and will make adjustments to the property values in accordance with any changes in market values. The Company has extended the estimated length of time needed to sell such properties due to changes in the real estate market. One of these properties, with a carrying value of $1,900,000, is expected to be disposed of by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 and the remaining two properties, with a carrying value of $2,432,000, are expected to be disposed of by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company will continue to monitor the status for disposing its owned properties and make any necessary adjustments. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold one closed store for $1,045,000, net of commission. During the quarter, the Company also adjusted the carrying value of certain assets held for disposal, which resulted in a net decrease of $230,000. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold two properties for $3,281,000, net of commissions. The sale of the properties resulted in a loss of $48,000 due to higher than anticipated sales' costs. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold two properties for $2,228,000, net of commissions. One of these properties, which sold for a loss of $641,000, was completed in a real estate transaction in which the Company was released from the lease obligations associated with two other properties, one of which was related to the Profit Enhancement Plan reserve. The other property sold resulted in a gain of $31,000. Additionally, the Company adjusted the carrying value of certain remaining assets held for disposal, which resulted in a net decrease of $702,000. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company sold two properties for a loss of $782,000, which was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. The net proceeds from the sales of these properties totaled approximately $2,117,000. Additionally, the Company recorded a downward revision in the estimated values for certain properties of $436,000. This reduction was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company sold one property for $1,986,000, net of commission. The sale resulted in a gain of $91,000, which was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the carrying values for the buildings and land were reduced from their original estimated value of $21,680,000 by $400,000 due to a reduction in the estimated value for one property. The charge related to this reduction was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. 7 LEASE RESERVE As of November 2, 2002, the Company was able to sublease eight and exit the lease of an additional six of the 27 closed stores. The Company expects four of the remaining 13 closed stores that are leased to be subleased or otherwise disposed of by the end of fiscal 2002 with the remaining nine closed stores to be sublet by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the lease reserve by $764,000. This increase was due primarily to a decrease in the estimated sublease rates and an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the lease reserve by $192,000. These changes were a result of a $689,000 increase due primarily to an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties offset, in part, by a $497,000 decrease due primarily to an increase in the sublease rates realized. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decreased the lease reserve by $333,000. These changes were a result of a $597,000 decrease due primarily to an increase in the estimated sublease rates. This decrease was offset, in part, by a $264,000 increase due primarily to an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company was able to sublease three properties and exit the lease of three other properties. The transactions resulted in a decrease in the previously recorded lease reserve due to better than estimated results. The lease reserve decreased during the third quarter of fiscal 2001 by $1,882,000. This change was due to a decrease of $2,184,000 resulting primarily from lower than estimated realized costs for exiting certain leases, higher realized sublease income on leased properties and lower realized commissions on the sublease of those properties. The decrease was offset, in part, by an increase in the lease reserve of $302,000 due primarily to an increase in the time it is expected to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. The lease reserve increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2001 by $1,812,000. This increase was attributed to a $2,083,000 increase due primarily to a decrease in the estimated months of sublease income coupled with higher estimated lease costs as the Company attempted to exit leases for certain stores early. This increase was offset, in part, by a decrease in lease expense of $270,000 due primarily to an increase in certain estimated sublease rates. The effects of these adjustments were recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. The lease reserve decreased during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 by $173,000. This reduction resulted primarily from a reduction in lease expense of $498,000 due to an increase in estimated sublease income resulting from an increase in the estimated sublease rates. This reduction was offset, in part, by a $325,000 decrease in expected sublease income due to an increase in the estimated time it may take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. 8 ON-GOING EXPENSES The on-going expense reserve represents exit activity costs which are not associated with or do not benefit the Company's continuing activities. These costs are necessary to maintain the remaining closed stores until sold, sublet or otherwise disposed. The on-going costs reserve includes general maintenance costs such as utilities, security, telephone, real estate taxes and personal property taxes that will be incurred until the properties are disposed. The reserve for on-going costs will diminish as sites are sold, sublet or otherwise disposed. These disposals are expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decreased the on-going expense reserve by $48,000 due primarily to lower than anticipated maintenance costs on properties to be disposed offset, in part, by an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the on-going expense reserve by $272,000 due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the on-going expense reserve by $160,000 due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going expense reserve decreased slightly. This change was a result of a decrease in the reserve due to lower than estimated security costs, offset by an increase in the reserve due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell, or otherwise vacate the remaining properties. In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going reserve was decreased by approximately $579,000 due primarily to lower than anticipated utility costs to maintain the closed stores and lower personal property taxes. This decrease was offset, in part, by an approximate $375,000 increase in the reserve primarily due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease or sell certain remaining properties. These adjustments were recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going reserve was increased by approximately $380,000, which was due primarily to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease or sell certain properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. SEVERANCE RESERVE In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company reversed the remaining employee severance reserve of $17,000 due to a lower than estimated final payment. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company reversed the severance reserve by $52,000 because certain employees who originally expected to receive severance failed to qualify to receive payments. There were no adjustments made to this reserve in fiscal 2002. 9 NON-RESERVABLE EXPENSES Non-reservable expenses are those costs which could not be reserved, but were incurred as a result of the Profit Enhancement Plan. These expenses related to costs incurred which had a future economic benefit to the Company such as the transferring of inventory and equipment out of properties closed by the Profit Enhancement Plan. There were no expenses of this nature incurred in fiscal 2002. The Company did not incur expenses of this nature in the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The expenses of this nature incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 totaling $166,000 were due primarily to the removal of the remaining equipment from the closed distribution centers. These expenses were primarily recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings as incurred. The expenses of this nature incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 totaling $512,000 were due primarily to the removal of inventory and equipment from the closed distribution centers. These expenses were primarily recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings as incurred.

20 NOTE 7. New Accounting Standards In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF 02-16, "Accounting by a Reseller for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor." This pronouncement addresses the accounting issues pertaining to cash consideration received by a reseller from a vendor. This consensus should be applied in financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the adoption of this consensus on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 replaces Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred instead of at the date an entity commits to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company does not expect adopting this statement will have a material impact on its financial position or the results of operations. In May 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." As a result of rescinding FASB Statement No. 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt", gains and losses from extinguishment of debt should be classified as extraordinary items only if they meet the criteria of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations." This statement also amends FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases," to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. Additional amendments include changes to other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 145 during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. For the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002, the Company recorded extraordinary losses on the extinguishment of debt, net of tax, of $110,000 and $239,000, respectively. Accordingly, reclassifications of these losses to earnings before extraordinary items will be made throughout fiscal 2003 to maintain comparability for the reported periods. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting standards for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs and is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the adoption of this statement on its consolidated financial statements. NOTE 8. Contingencies On October 28, 2002, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York ordered a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice of all claims asserted by the plaintiffs against the Company in the action entitled "Coalition for a Level Playing Field, L.L.C., et al v. AutoZone, Inc., et al." After vigorously defending this action, the Company, in recognition of the costs and burdens of further litigation, agreed to a settlement of the action, although it continues to deny liability on all claims asserted therein. The payment to be made by the Company in connection with the settlement is not material to the Company's financial position or the results of its operations. The Company's California subsidiary is a defendant in a consolidated action entitled "Dubrow et al vs. The Pep Boys - Manny Moe & Jack" that is pending in the California Superior Court in Orange County. Plaintiffs are former and current store management employees who claim that they were improperly classified as exempt from the overtime provisions of California law and seek to be compensated for all overtime hours worked. Plaintiffs filed a Motion to certify the case as a class action to represent all persons employed in California as salaried store managers, assistant store managers, service managers and assistant service managers since March 29, 1996. On October 25, 2002, plaintiffs' Motion to certify the case as a class action was granted. The Company sought expedited relief from the Court of Appeals to vacate the class certification order, which was denied. On December 1, 2002 the Company appealed that denial by filing a Petition for Review and Request for Immediate Stay to the California Supreme Court. No trial date has been set for the underlying case. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action and believes that it is not material to the Company's financial position. An adverse outcome in this action, however, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for the year in which a judgment, if any, is rendered. 21 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES - November 2, 2002 -------------------------------------------------- The Company's cash requirements arise principally from the capital expenditures related to existing stores, offices and warehouses, the need to finance the acquisition, construction and equipping of new stores and to purchase inventory. During the first nine months of 2002, the Company invested $25,999,000 in property and equipment. The Company's net inventory (net inventory includes the change in inventory less the change in accounts payable) increased $31,484,000. Working capital increased from $97,838,000 at February 2, 2002 to $130,986,000 at November 2, 2002. At November 2, 2002, the Company had stockholders' equity of $654,579,000 and long-term debt of $532,813,000. The Company's long-term debt was 45% of its total capitalization at November 2, 2002 and 47% at February 2, 2002. As of November 2, 2002, the Company had an available line of credit totaling $174,789,000. The Company has opened two new Supercenters, completing its planned openings for the current fiscal year. Management estimates the costs of expected capital expenditures relating to the Company's existing stores, warehouses and offices for the remainder of fiscal 2002 will be approximately $17,000,000. The Company anticipates that its net cash provided by operating activities and its existing line of credit will exceed its principal cash requirements for capital expenditures and net inventory in fiscal 2002. On October 16, 2002, the Company retired $225,000 aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes which were redeemed at the option of the holders. The Company repurchased these notes with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes. On September 19, 2002, the Company retired $42,650,000 aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes which were redeemed at the option of the holders. The Company repurchased these notes with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes. The after-tax extraordinary loss was $110,000. In the second quarter of 2002, the Company reclassified the $75,000,000, 6.625% notes with a stated maturity date of May 15, 2003 to current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The Company anticipates being able to repurchase these notes with cash from operations and its existing line of credit. On July 16, 2002, the Company retired $49,915,000 aggregate principal amount of Medium-Term Notes which were redeemed at the option of the holders. The Company repurchased these notes with a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the 4.25% Senior Convertible Notes. The after-tax extraordinary loss was $129,000. On May 21, 2002, the Company issued $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% Convertible Senior Notes due June 1, 2007. The notes are unsecured and jointly and severally guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned direct and indirect operating subsidiaries, The Pep Boys Manny Moe & Jack of California, Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack of Delaware, Inc. and Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack of Puerto Rico, Inc. The notes may be converted into shares of Pep Boys common stock at any time prior to their maturity unless they have been previously repurchased or redeemed by the Company. The conversion rate is 44.6484 shares per each $1,000 principal amount of notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $22.40 per share. Interest on the notes will be paid by the Company on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning December 1, 2002. The proceeds from the sale of the notes are being used to retire debt. 22 PROFIT ENHANCEMENT PLAN ----------------------- In the third quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company comprehensively reviewed its field, distribution, and Store Support Center infrastructure and the performance of each of its stores. As a result, the Company implemented a number of changes that have improved its performance. These changes included the closure of 38 under-performing stores and two distribution centers and reductions in store operating hours and the Store Support Center infrastructure. PLAN UPDATE The Company is progressing towards the disposal of the 38 stores (11 owned and 27 leased), two distribution centers and two development parcels that were closed or abandoned in connection with the Profit Enhancement Plan. As of November 2, 2002, the Company had disposed of 20 of the closed stores, the two distribution centers and the two development parcels. In the second quarter 2002, the Company decided to lease rather than sell two of the closed stores due to changes in the real estate market. As a result, the Company reclassified these two owned properties as assets held for use. The Company estimates that the remaining closed stores (three owned and 13 leased) will be disposed of by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. ASSETS HELD FOR DISPOSAL As of November 2, 2002, the assets held for disposal included the building and land of the three remaining closed stores owned by the Company, which have a carrying value of $4,332,000. The Company has sold eight of the 13 owned properties originally held for sale, which included the two development parcels. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decided to lease rather than sell two of the closed stores due to changes in the real estate market. As a result, the Company reclassified these two owned properties as assets held for use at their estimated market values of $1,688,000 and $1,507,000. The market value of each such property was lower than cost adjusted for depreciation. The Company is actively marketing the remaining three closed stores and will make adjustments to the property values in accordance with any changes in market values. The Company has extended the estimated length of time needed to sell such properties due to changes in the real estate market. One of these properties, with a carrying value of $1,900,000, is expected to be disposed of by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002 and the remaining two properties, with a carrying value of $2,432,000, are expected to be disposed of by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2003. The Company will continue to monitor the status for disposing its owned properties and make any necessary adjustments. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold one closed store for $1,045,000, net of commission. During the quarter, the Company also adjusted the carrying value of certain assets held for disposal, which resulted in a net decrease of $230,000. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold two properties for $3,281,000, net of commissions. The sale of the properties resulted in a loss of $48,000 due to higher than anticipated sales' costs. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. 23 In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company sold two properties for $2,228,000, net of commissions. One of these properties, which sold for a loss of $641,000, was completed in a real estate transaction in which the Company was released from the lease obligations associated with two other properties, one of which was related to the Profit Enhancement Plan reserve. The other property sold resulted in a gain of $31,000. Additionally, the Company adjusted the carrying value of certain remaining assets held for disposal, which resulted in a net decrease of $702,000. The charges related to the assets held for disposal were recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company sold two properties for a loss of $782,000, which was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. The net proceeds from the sales of these properties totaled approximately $2,117,000. Additionally, the Company recorded a downward revision in the estimated values for certain properties of $436,000. This reduction was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company sold one property for $1,986,000, net of commission. The sale resulted in a gain of $91,000, which was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the carrying values for the buildings and land were reduced from their original estimated value of $21,680,000 by $400,000 due to a reduction in the estimated value for one property. The charge related to this reduction was recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings. LEASE RESERVE As of November 2, 2002, the Company was able to sublease eight and exit the lease of an additional six of the 27 closed stores. The Company expects four of the remaining 13 closed stores that are leased to be subleased or otherwise disposed of by the end of fiscal 2002 with the remaining nine closed stores to be sublet by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the lease reserve by $764,000. This increase was due primarily to a decrease in the estimated sublease rates and an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the lease reserve by $192,000. These changes were a result of a $689,000 increase due primarily to an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties offset, in part, by a $497,000 decrease due primarily to an increase in the sublease rates realized. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. 24 In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decreased the lease reserve by $333,000. These changes were a result of a $597,000 decrease due primarily to an increase in the estimated sublease rates. This decrease was offset, in part, by a $264,000 increase due primarily to an increase in the time that it is expected to take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company was able to sublease three properties and exit the lease of three other properties. The transactions resulted in a decrease in the previously recorded lease reserve due to better than estimated results. The lease reserve decreased during the third quarter of fiscal 2001 by $1,882,000. This change was due to a decrease of $2,184,000 resulting primarily from lower than estimated realized costs for exiting certain leases, higher realized sublease income on leased properties and lower realized commissions on the sublease of those properties. The decrease was offset, in part, by an increase in the lease reserve of $302,000 due primarily to an increase in the time it is expected to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. The lease reserve increased during the second quarter of fiscal 2001 by $1,812,000. This increase was attributed to a $2,083,000 increase due primarily to a decrease in the estimated months of sublease income coupled with higher estimated lease costs as the Company attempted to exit leases for certain stores early. This increase was offset, in part, by a decrease in lease expense of $270,000 due primarily to an increase in certain estimated sublease rates. The effects of these adjustments were recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. The lease reserve decreased during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 by $173,000. This reduction resulted primarily from a reduction in lease expense of $498,000 due to an increase in estimated sublease income resulting from an increase in the estimated sublease rates. This reduction was offset, in part, by a $325,000 decrease in expected sublease income due to an increase in the estimated time it may take to sublease certain properties. The effect of these adjustments was recorded in costs of merchandise sales and costs of service revenue on the consolidated statement of earnings. ON-GOING EXPENSES The on-going expense reserve represents exit activity costs which are not associated with or do not benefit the Company's continuing activities. These costs are necessary to maintain the remaining closed stores until sold, sublet or otherwise disposed. The on-going costs reserve includes general maintenance costs such as utilities, security, telephone, real estate taxes and personal property taxes that will be incurred until the properties are disposed. The reserve for on-going costs will diminish as sites are sold, sublet or otherwise disposed. These disposals are expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2003. In the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company decreased the on-going expense reserve by $48,000 due primarily to lower than anticipated maintenance costs on properties to be disposed offset, in part, by an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the second quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the on-going expense reserve by $272,000 due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. 25 In the first quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company increased the on-going expense reserve by $160,000 due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell or otherwise dispose of the remaining properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going expense reserve decreased slightly. This change was a result of a decrease in the reserve due to lower than estimated security costs, offset by an increase in the reserve due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease, sell, or otherwise vacate the remaining properties. In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going reserve was decreased by approximately $579,000 due primarily to lower than anticipated utility costs to maintain the closed stores and lower personal property taxes. This decrease was offset, in part, by an approximate $375,000 increase in the reserve primarily due to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease or sell certain remaining properties. These adjustments were recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the on-going reserve was increased by approximately $380,000, which was due primarily to an increase in the length of time that it is expected to take to sublease or sell certain properties. This adjustment was recorded in costs of merchandise sales, costs of service revenue, and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statement of earnings. SEVERANCE RESERVE In the second quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company reversed the remaining employee severance reserve of $17,000 due to a lower than estimated final payment. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company reversed the severance reserve by $52,000 because certain employees who originally expected to receive severance failed to qualify to receive payments. There were no adjustments made to this reserve in fiscal 2002. 26 NON-RESERVABLE EXPENSES Non-reservable expenses are those costs which could not be reserved, but were incurred as a result of the Profit Enhancement Plan. These expenses related to costs incurred which had a future economic benefit to the Company such as the transferring of inventory and equipment out of properties closed by the Profit Enhancement Plan. There were no expenses of this nature incurred in fiscal 2002. The Company did not incur expenses of this nature in the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The expenses of this nature incurred in the second quarter of fiscal 2001 totaling $166,000 were due primarily to the removal of the remaining equipment from the closed distribution centers. These expenses were primarily recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings as incurred. The expenses of this nature incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 totaling $512,000 were due primarily to the removal of inventory and equipment from the closed distribution centers. These expenses were primarily recorded in costs of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of earnings as incurred. PROFIT ENHANCEMENT PLAN EXPENSE SUMMARY Below is a table summarizing expenses related to the Profit Enhancement Plan for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2002 and November 3, 2001. The details and reasons for the changes to the charge are as described above in the respective reserve categories.

29 Thirteen Weeks Ended November 2, 2002 vs. Thirteen Weeks Ended November 3, 2001 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues for the third quarter decreased 1.2%. This decrease was due primarily to a decrease in comparable store revenues of 1.3% (revenues generated by stores in operation during the same period), offset slightly by an increase in the number of stores in operation in 2002 versus 2001. Comparable store service revenue increased 1.0% while comparable merchandise sales decreased 1.9%. Gross profit from merchandise sales increased, as a percentage of merchandise sales, to 30.9% in 2002 from 29.3% in 2001. This increase was due primarily to higher merchandise margins, as a percentage of merchandise sales offset, in part, by a charge related to the Profit Enhancement Plan of $710,000 in 2002 versus a reduction of $109,000 in 2001. The improved merchandise margins, as a percentage of merchandise sales, were a result of a combination of an improvement in the mix of sales, selectively higher retail pricing, lower product acquisition costs and improved inventory controls. Gross profit from service revenue increased, as a percentage of service revenue, to 26.0% in 2002 from 24.0% in 2001. This increase was due primarily to a decrease in service payroll, as a percentage of service revenue. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased, as a percentage of total revenues, to 23.4% in 2002 from 23.3% in 2001. This increase was due primarily to $2,150,000 or 103% higher media expense offset, in part, by lower store expenses, as a percentage of total revenues. The increase in media expense was a result of the testing various new media plans. The decrease in store expense was due primarily to a decrease in store payroll expense, as a percentage of total revenues. Net earnings increased, as a percentage of total revenues, due primarily to an increase in gross profit from merchandise sales, as a percentage of merchandise sales, an increase in gross profit from service revenue, as a percentage of service revenue offset, in part, by an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total revenues, and a net charge of $596,000 related to the Profit Enhancement Plan in 2002 versus a net reduction of $358,000 in 2001. 30 Results of Operations - The following table presents for the periods indicated certain items in the consolidated statements of earnings as a percentage of total revenues (except as otherwise provided) and the percentage change in dollar amounts of such items compared to the indicated prior period.

31 Thirty-nine Weeks Ended Nov. 2, 2002 vs. Thirty-nine Weeks Ended Nov. 3, 2001 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total revenues for the first nine months increased 0.8%. This increase was due primarily to an increase in comparable store revenues of 0.7% (revenues generated by stores in operation during the same period) coupled with an increase in the number of stores in operation in 2002 versus 2001. Comparable store merchandise sales increased 1.2% while comparable store service revenue decreased 1.3%. Gross profit from merchandise sales increased, as a percentage of merchandise sales, to 30.4% in 2002 from 29.1% in 2001. This increase was due primarily to higher merchandise margins and a decrease in warehousing costs, as a percentage of merchandise sales. The improved merchandise margins were a result of a combination of an improvement in the mix of sales, selectively higher retail pricing, lower product acquisition costs and improved inventory controls. The lower warehousing costs, as a percentage of merchandise sales, were due to continued improvements in efficiencies related to the supply chain. Interest expense decreased $3,590,000 or 9.2% due primarily to lower debt levels coupled with lower average interest rates on the Company's borrowings. Net earnings increased, as a percentage of total revenues, due primarily to an increase in gross profit from merchandise sales, as a percentage of merchandise sales, and a decrease in interest expense, offset slightly, by a net charge of $1,636,000 related to the Profit Enhancement Plan in 2002 versus a net charge of $1,396,000 in 2001. 32 NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ------------------------ In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on EITF 02-16, "Accounting by a Reseller for Cash Consideration Received from a Vendor." This pronouncement addresses the accounting issues pertaining to cash consideration received by a reseller from a vendor. This consensus should be applied in financial statements for periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the adoption of this consensus on its consolidated financial statements. In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 replaces Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred instead of at the date an entity commits to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company does not expect adopting this statement will have a material impact on its financial position or the results of operations. In May 2002, FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." As a result of rescinding FASB Statement No. 4, "Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt", gains and losses from extinguishment of debt should be classified as extraordinary items only if they meet the criteria of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations." This statement also amends FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases," to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. Additional amendments include changes to other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 145 during the first quarter of fiscal 2003. For the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 2, 2002, the Company recorded extraordinary losses on the extinguishment of debt, net of tax, of $110,000 and $239,000, respectively. Accordingly, reclassifications of these losses to earnings before extraordinary items will be made throughout fiscal 2003 to maintain comparability for the reported periods. In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." SFAS No. 143 addresses accounting standards for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs and is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of the adoption of this statement on its consolidated financial statements. 33 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES ------------------------------------------ Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations discusses the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to customer incentives, product returns and warranty obligations, bad debts, inventories, income taxes, financing operations, restructuring costs, retirement benefits, risk participation agreements and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. For a detailed discussion of significant accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity, refer to "-Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" as reported in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2002, which disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS -------------------------- Certain statements made herein, including those discussing management's expectations for future periods, are forward-looking and involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results may differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements due to factors beyond the control of the Company, including the strength of the national and regional economies and retail and commercial consumers' ability to spend, the health of the various sectors of the market that the Company serves, the weather in geographical regions with a high concentration of the Company's stores, competitive pricing, location and number of competitors' stores and product and labor costs. Further factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, the factors described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 34 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk The Company does not utilize financial instruments for trading purposes and holds no derivative financial instruments which could expose the Company to significant market risk. The Company's primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is to changes in interest rates. Pursuant to the terms of its revolving credit agreements and Secured Credit Facility; changes in the lenders' prime rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) could affect the rates at which the Company could borrow funds thereunder. At November 2, 2002 the Company had $48,006,000 of outstanding borrowings under these credit facilities. There have been no material changes to the "-Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" as reported in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2002, which disclosures are hereby incorporated by reference. 35 Item 4. Controls and Procedures EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules, the Company is required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Within the 90-day period prior to the filing date of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. The Company's management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, supervised and participated in the evaluation. Based on this evaluation, the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the evaluation date. CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS There were no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation. PART II - OTHER INFORMATION --------------------------- Item 1. Legal Proceedings On October 28, 2002, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York ordered a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice of all claims asserted by the plaintiffs against the Company in the action entitled "Coalition for a Level Playing Field, L.L.C., et al v. AutoZone, Inc., et al." After vigorously defending this action, the Company, in recognition of the costs and burdens of further litigation, agreed to a settlement of the action, although it continues to deny liability on all claims asserted therein. The payment to be made by the Company in connection with the settlement is not material to the Company's financial position or the results of its operations. The Company's California subsidiary is a defendant in a consolidated action entitled "Dubrow et al vs. The Pep Boys - Manny Moe & Jack" that is pending in the California Superior Court in Orange County. Plaintiffs are former and current store management employees who claim that they were improperly classified as exempt from the overtime provisions of California law and seek to be compensated for all overtime hours worked. Plaintiffs filed a Motion to certify the case as a class action to represent all persons employed in California as salaried store managers, assistant store managers, service managers and assistant service managers since March 29, 1996. On October 25, 2002, plaintiffs' Motion to certify the case as a class action was granted. The Company sought expedited relief from the Court of Appeals to vacate the class certification order, which was denied. On December 1, 2002 the Company appealed that denial by filing a Petition for Review and Request for Immediate Stay to the California Supreme Court. No trial date has been set for the underlying case. The Company intends to vigorously defend this action and believes that it is not material to the Company's financial position. An adverse outcome in this action, however, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for the year in which a judgment, if any, is rendered. 36 Item 2.
