HOMELAND HOLDING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. Basis of Preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Homeland Holding Corporation ("Holding") and its Subsidiary, Homeland Stores, Inc. ("Stores" and together with Holding, the "Company"), reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the period ended December 30, 1995 and the notes thereto. 2. Accounting Policies: The policies of the Company are summarized in the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the 52 weeks ended December 30, 1995 and the notes thereto. 3. Operational Restructuring: On April 21, 1995, the Company sold 29 of its stores and its distribution center to Associated Wholesale Grocers, Inc. ("AWG"), pursuant to a strategic plan approved by the Board of Directors in December 1994. In connection with the plan, the Company closed 14 underperforming stores in 1995 and sold one store and expects to close two additional stores in the second quarter of 1996. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company paid expenses associated with the operational restructuring as follows: Payments applied against operational Operational restructuring Operational restructuring reserve for restructuring reserve at the 12 weeks ended reserve at December 30, 1995 March 23, 1996 March 23, 1996 Expenses associated with the planned store closings, primarily occupancy costs from closing date to lease termination or sublease date $4,860 $ (12) $4,848 Expenses associated with the AWG transaction, primarily service and equipment contract cancellation fees 58 - 58 Estimated severance costs associated with the AWG transaction 927 - 927 Legal and consulting fees associated with the AWG transaction 25 - 25 Operational restructuring reserve $5,870 $ (12) $5,858 The separately identifiable revenue and store contribution to operating profit related to the stores sold to AWG or closed and expenses related to the warehouse facility are as follows: 12 weeks ended March 25, 1995 Sales, net $53,354 Store contribution to operating profit before allocation of administrative and advertising expenses 1,808 Warehouse expenses 2,945 4. Subsequent Events: On May 13, 1996, the Company filed chapter 11 petitions with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. Simultaneous with the filings of such petitions, the Company filed a plan of reorganization and a disclosure statement, which sets forth the terms of a proposed restructuring of the Company. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Results of Operations Net sales for the first quarter ended March 23, 1996 decreased to $124.4 million, a 30.1% decline over the corresponding period of 1995. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to the sale of 29 stores to AWG on April 21, 1995 and the closing of 14 stores in 1995, 5 of which occurred during the first quarter of 1995 and the remainder over the balance of 1995. Comparable store sales decreased by 0.2% compared to the corresponding period of 1995. The decrease in comparable store sales was primarily due to higher 1995 general merchandise sales resulting from certain continuity programs that did not recur in 1996. Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased to 24.2% in the first quarter of 1996 compared with 23.9% in the first quarter of 1995. The improvement was primarily due to higher vendor allowances and rebates, which were lower in 1995 due to the pending sale of the Company's distribution center and 29 stores to AWG. The higher vendor allowances and rebates are somewhat offset by the higher cost of goods purchased through AWG versus self-supply. Selling and administrative expenses increased 0.05% to 22.50% in the first quarter of 1996 from 22.45% in the first quarter of 1995. This increase was due to higher advertising expenses and a new retail store lighting program implemented throughout 1995 and continuing in 1996, offset by lower corporate office and related administrative expenses. The Company incurred $1.4 million of financial restructuring expenses in the first quarter of 1996, primarily in professional fees. Interest expense for the first quarter of 1996 decreased to $3.2 million from $4.4 million in the first quarter of 1995, due primarily to the redemption of $25.0 million of senior secured notes on June 1, 1995. Liquidity and Capital Resources The primary sources of liquidity for the Company's operations have been borrowings under credit facilities and internally generated funds. In March 1992, the Company refinanced its indebtedness by entering into an Indenture with United States Trust Company of New York, as trustee, pursuant to which the Company has outstanding as of May 30, 1996, $59.4 million of Series C Senior Secured Fixed Rate Notes due 1999, $26.1 million of Series D Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 1997 and $9.5 Series A Senior Secured Floating Rates Notes due 1997 (collectively the "Senior Notes"). On April 21, 1995, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Revolving Credit Agreement") with National Bank of Canada, ("NBC"), as agent and as lender, Heller Financial, Inc., and any other lenders thereafter parties thereto. The Revolving Credit Agreement permits borrowings up to $25 million, subject to a borrowing base, for working capital needs including certain letters of credit. In December 1995, the Company informed the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the trustee for the Senior Notes that it would be unable to comply with certain year- end financial maintenance covenants (the Consolidated Fixed Change Coverage Ratio and Debt-to EBITDA Ratio) contained in the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Indenture. The Revolving Credit Agreement lenders and the trustee under the Indenture (acting at the direction of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes then outstanding) waived compliance by the Company with these financial covenants through the earlier to occur of April 15, 1996 and the date on which the Company defaulted on any of its payment obligations with respect to the Senior Notes. On March 1, 1996, the Company failed to make the scheduled interest payment on its Senior Notes in the amount of approximately $4.5 million. This payment default resulted in a termination of the December 1995 waiver under the indenture. Notwithstanding such termination, an ad hoc committee (the "Committee"), representing approximately 80% of the Company's outstanding Senior Notes, advised the Company that, so long as restructuring negotiations between the Company and the Committee were proceeding, the Committee would not exercise any contractual or other remedies in response to the interest payment default. Moreover, the lenders under the Revolving Credit Agreement agreed that their waiver would continue to be effective through May 20, 1996, notwithstanding such payment default. On May 13, 1996, the Company filed chapter 11 petitions with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court"). Simultaneous with the filing of such petitions, the Company filed a "pre-arranged" plan of reorganization (the "Plan") and a disclosure statement, which sets forth the terms of a proposed restructuring of the Company. The restructuring is designed to reduce substantially the Company's debt service obligations and labor costs and to create a capital and cost structure that will allow the Company to maintain and enhance the competitive position of its business and operations. The restructuring was negotiated with, and is supported by, the lenders under the Company's existing revolving credit facility, the Committee and the Company's labor unions. As part of the restructuring, the $95 million of Homeland's outstanding Senior Notes, plus accrued interest of approximately $6.6 million, will be canceled and such noteholders will receive (in the aggregate) $60 million face amount of new senior subordinated notes and $1.5 million in cash. The new senior subordinated notes will mature in 2003, bear interest semi-annually at a rate of 10% per annum and will not be secured. Additionally, it is anticipated that the noteholders and the Company's general unsecured creditors will receive approximately 60% and 35%, respectively, of the equity of the reorganized Holding (assuming total unsecured claims of approximately $63 million, including noteholders's unsecured claims). Holding's existing equity holders will receive 5% of the new equity, plus five-year warrants to purchase an additional 5% of such equity. An integral part of the restructuring is the Company's previously-announced deal with its labor unions to modify certain elements of the Company's existing collective bargaining agreements. The modified collective bargaining agreements will provide for, among other things, wage and benefit modifications, the buyout of certain employees and the issuance and purchase of new equity to a trust acting on behalf of the unionized employees. The modified collective bargaining agreements are conditioned on, and will become effective upon, the consummation of the restructuring. On May 13, 1996, the Company also entered into a debtor-in possession lending facility ("DIP Facility"), with its existing bank group to provide up to $27 million of working capital financing. This facility has been approved by the Bankruptcy Court on an interim basis, with a stipulation that the aggregate principal outstanding indebtedness does not exceed $21.1 million, until a final approval hearing scheduled on June 7, 1996. Management anticipates that the Bankruptcy Court will approve the DIP Facility at the June 7, 1996 hearing. Management also believes that the DIP Facility will be adequate to meet the Company's working capital requirements while it is operating under the auspices of the Bankruptcy Court. Upon the final approval of the Bankruptcy Court, the DIP Facility will permit the Company to borrow up to the lesser of $27 million and the Borrowing Base. The borrowings under the DIP Facility bears interest at a rate equal to the prime rate announced publicly by NBC from time to time in New York, New York plus two percent. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of March, June, September and December, commencing on June 30, 1996. The DIP Facility will mature on the earlier of (1) one year from the date of filing of the Company's voluntary petition under Chapter 11 of the United States Federal Bankruptcy Code, and (2) the effective date of the Plan. The DIP Facility provides that NBC, on behalf of itself and as agent for the lenders under the DIP Facility, will have liens on, and security interests in, all of the pre-petition and post-petition property of the Company (other than the collateral under the Indenture), which liens and security interests will have priority over substantially all other liens on, and security interests in, the Company's property (other than properly perfected liens and security interests which existed prior to the date of filing of the Company's voluntary petition under the Bankruptcy Code). The DIP Facility includes certain customary restrictive covenants, including restrictions on acquisitions, asset dispositions, capital expenditures, consolidations and mergers, distributions, divestitures, indebtedness, liens and security interests and transactions with affiliates. The DIP Facility also requires the Company to comply with certain financial maintenance and other covenants. At May 30, 1996, the net unused and available amount under the DIP Facility was $12.1 million (assuming the Bankruptcy Court approves the DIP Facility). On the effective date of the Plan (the "Effective Date") the Company anticipates that it will enter into a new bank credit agreement or an amendment and restatement of its existing credit agreement (the "New Credit Agreement"), the general terms of which must be approved by the Committee. As of the date hereof, the Company is in discussions with a number of banks potentially interested in providing this credit facility, including the lenders under its existing credit facility. There can be no assurance, however, that any bank or group of banks will agree to provide a bank credit facility on terms acceptable to the Company and the Committee. The Company anticipates that the New Credit Agreement would provide for up to $37.5 million in borrowings, including approximately $27.5 million under a revolving credit facility (subject to borrowing base requirements) and a $10 million term loan. Proceeds from the term loan would be used primarily to fund certain obligations under the modified collective bargaining agreements and to pay certain transaction expenses relating to the restructuring. The Company expects that its obligations under the New Credit Agreement would be secured by a security interest in, and liens on, substantially all of the Company's assets and would be guaranteed by Holding. The Company expects to complete the restructuring by mid-summer 1996. Management believes the restructuring will have a favorable effect on the Company's liquidity; however, there can be no assurance that future operating cash flows will yield positive net cash flows or that the restructuring will be successful. If the Company is not able to generate positive cash flows from its operation or if the restructuring is not consummated successfully, management believes that this could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business and the continuing viability of the Company.
