(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, these consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Sight Resource Corporation as of March 31, 2001 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The Company's fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December. Each quarter represents a thirteen week period, except during a 53-week year in which case one quarter represents a fourteen week period. The quarters ended March 31, 2001 and March 25, 2000 were thirteen week periods. Fiscal year 2001 is a 52-week fiscal year and 2000 was a 53- week fiscal year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements which are contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the year ended December 30, 2000. (3) Earnings Per Share The following table provides a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted loss per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2001 and March 25, 2000: 6 Sight Resource Corporation Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - (Continued) (In thousands, except share and per share data)

Each operating segment is individually managed and has separate financial results that are reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision-makers. Each segment contains closely related products that are unique to the particular segment. The principal products of the Company's eye care centers are eyeglasses, frames, ophthalmic lenses and contact lenses. Profit from operations is net sales less cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, but is not affected by non- operating charges/income or by income taxes. Non-operating charges/income consists principally of net interest expense. In calculating profit from operations for individual operating segments, certain administrative expenses incurred at the operating level that are common to more than one segment are not allocated on a net sales basis. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated, and intersegment revenues are not significant. (5) Subsequent Event (a) On April 23, 2001, the Company failed to make payments to two noteholders, each in the aggregate principal amount of $333,333. The Company is currently in discussions with respect to such nonpayments; however, there can be no assurance that such discussions will result in an outcome favorable to the Company. 8 (b) On May 14, 2001, the Company and its primary lender agreed to enter into the Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement, which includes a revised financing agreement. The Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement includes provisions and financial covenants which supercede the provisions in the 1999 Agreement and the Original and Second Modification Agreements, including the following: i) The maturity dates on each of the revolving line note and the term loan note are extended to December 31, 2002. ii) Interest rates on the revolving note and term loan are as follows: February 1, 2001 through September 30, 2001............ 6% October 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001.............. 7% January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002.............. Prime rate with minimum of 8% and maximum of 11% iii) Scheduled monthly principal payments are as follows: January 1, 2001 to June 30, 2001....................... $ 0 July 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001...................... $ 30,000 January 1, 2002 to December 31, 2002................... $100,000 iv) Failure to complete a financing or a series of financings, either through the issuance of equity or debt subordinate to the bank, in the amount of at least $2,300,000 by July 16, 2001 shall constitute an event of default. As a result of this covenant, the related debt has been classified as a current liability. 9 Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS "Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 Statements contained in this document which are not historical fact are forward-looking statements based upon management's current expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks include, but are not limited to, the risks described under "Business Risks and Cautionary Statements" in the Company's Form 10-K, as amended on Form 10-K/A, for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Overview Sight Resource Corporation (the "Company") manufactures, distributes and sells eyewear and related products and services. As of March 31, 2001, the Company's operations consisted of 122 eye care centers with two regional optical laboratories and three distribution centers. Based upon annual sales, the Company is one of the fifteen largest providers in the United States' primary eye care industry. The Company's eye care centers operate primarily under the brand names Cambridge Eye Doctors, E.B. Brown Opticians, Eyeglass Emporium, Kent Optical, Shawnee Optical, Vision Plaza, and Vision World. The Company also provides or, where necessary to comply with applicable law, administers the business functions of optometrists, ophthalmologists and professional corporations that provide, vision related professional services. The Company operates two regional optical laboratories and three distribution centers. The regional optical laboratories provide complete laboratory services to the Company's eye care centers, including polishing, cutting and edging, tempering, tinting and coating of ophthalmic lenses. The distribution centers provide and maintain an inventory of all accessories and supplies necessary to operate the primary eye care centers in their regions, as well as "ready made" eye care products, including contact lenses and related supplies. The inventory of eyeglass lenses, frames, contact lenses, accessories and supplies is acquired through a number of sources, domestic and foreign. Management believes that the regional optical laboratories and distribution centers have the capacity to accommodate additional multi-site eye care centers. Results of Operations Three Months Ended March 31, 2001 and March 25, 2000 Net Revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2001, the Company generated net revenue of approximately $16.0 million and $0.1 million from the operation of its 122 eye care centers and its laser vision correction affiliation, respectively, as compared to net revenue of approximately $17.3 million and $0.2 million from its 130 eye care centers and its laser vision correction affiliation, respectively, for the three months ended March 25, 2000. The $1.4 million, or 8.0%, decrease in total net revenue primarily relates to the lower average net sales per store, the closing of eight stores net of store additions and the reduction of sales to the Company's largest managed care plan customer in New England. Cost of Revenue. Cost of revenue decreased from approximately $5.3 million from the operation of the 130 eye care centers for the three months ended March 25, 2000 to approximately $4.8 million from the operation of the 122 eye care centers for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Cost of revenue was approximately $0.1 million from the operation of laser vision affiliations for each of the three months ended March 31, 2001 and March 25, 2000. Total cost of revenue as a percentage of net revenue decreased from 30.8% for the three months ended March 25, 2000 to 30.6% for the three months ended 10 March 31, 2001. The improvement as a percentage of net revenue reflects primarily the consolidation of optical laboratory operations. Cost of revenue principally consisted of (i) the cost of manufacturing, purchasing and distributing optical products to customers of the Company, and (ii) the cost of delivering laser vision correction ("LVC") services, including depreciation and maintenance on excimer lasers. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to approximately $12.2 million for the three months ended March 25, 2000. The decrease of approximately $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to the three months ended March 25, 2000 primarily relates to reduced staffing levels and lower marketing expenditures. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net revenue, increased slightly from 69.5% for the three months ended March 25, 2000 to 69.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2001. Other Income and Expense. Interest income totaled $7,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $12,000 for the three months ended March 25, 2000. This decrease resulted from the investment of a lower average cash and cash equivalents balance during the first three months of 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Interest expense totaled $243,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to $223,000 for the three months ended March 25, 2000. The increase is associated with a higher average balance of debt outstanding during the first three months of 2001 as compared to the same period in 2000. Net Loss. The Company realized a net loss of $305,000, or $0.03 per share on a basic and diluted weighted average basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2001 as compared to a net loss of $287,000, or $0.03 per share on a basic and diluted weighted average basis, for the three months ended March 25, 2000. Liquidity and Capital Resources At March 31, 2001, the Company had approximately $0.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and working capital deficit of approximately $6.1 million, in comparison to approximately $0.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and working capital deficit of approximately $6.3 million as of December 30, 2000. The working capital deficit is primarily due to the bank debt of $5.9 million with Sovereign Bank of New England ("Sovereign"), which was classified on March 31, 2001 and on December 30, 2000 as current with a maturity date of March 31, 2001, but which has been extended to December 31, 2002, among other things, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement (as defined below). The Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement requires that the Company obtain a financing or series of financings, either through the issuance of equity or debt subordinate to Sovereign, in the amount of at least $2.3 million on or before July 16, 2001. The bank debt continues to be classified as current subject to the Company receiving the financing on or before July 16, 2001. The Company may need to raise additional funds in the near term and may seek to raise those funds through additional financings, including public or private equity offerings. There can be no assurance that funds will be available for the contemplated financings or otherwise on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to limit its operations, which would have a material and adverse affect on the Company. Effective January 1, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Shawnee Optical, Inc. ("Shawnee"). The purchase price paid in connection with this acquisition was $1.75 million in cash, $0.3 million in notes payable over three years and 70,000 shares of common stock. In addition, the Company agreed to issue additional consideration to the Shawnee stockholders if the market price of the Company's Common Stock did not equal or exceed $5.00 per share at any time 11 during the period from January 22, 2000 to January 22, 2001. The market price of the Company's Common Stock did not equal or exceed $5.00 during such period. The amount of additional consideration due to the Shawnee stockholders for each share of common stock issued in the acquisition and held by them on January 22, 2001 is equal to the difference between $5.00 and the greater of (a) the market price on January 22, 2001 or (b) $2.45. As of January 22, 2001, the aggregate additional consideration payable to the Shawnee sellers was $178,500. As a result of the Company's obligation to issue additional consideration to the Shawnee stockholders, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, dated March 20, 2001, with the Shawnee stockholders in which the Company agreed to issue 238,000 shares of its common stock to the Shawnee stockholders. At the time of the acquisition, the Company included the value of this additional consideration in its determination of the purchase price. In addition, the Company has failed to make required note payments to Shawnee noteholders in the amount of $100,000 that were due on January 22, 2001. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Kent Optical Company and its associated companies (collectively, "Kent"). The purchase price paid in connection with this acquisition was $5.209 million in cash, $1.0 million in notes payable over three years and 160,000 shares of common stock. In addition, the Company offered to issue additional consideration to the Kent stockholders if the market price of the Company's common stock did not equal or exceed $5.00 per share at any time during the period from April 23, 2000 to April 23, 2001. The market price of the Company's common stock did not equal or exceed $5.00 per share at any time during the period from April 23, 2000 to April 23, 2001. The amount of additional consideration due to the Kent stockholders for each share of common stock issued in the acquisition and held by them on April 23, 2001 is equal to the difference between $5.00 and the greater of (a) the market price of the common stock on April 23, 2001 or (b) $2.73. As of April 23, 2001, the aggregate additional consideration payable to the Kent sellers was $363,200. At the Company's option, the additional consideration may be paid to the Kent stockholders in cash or in additional shares of the Company's common stock valued at its market price on the date that the additional consideration becomes payable to the Kent stockholders. At the time of the acquisition, the Company included the value of this additional consideration in its determination of the purchase price. In addition, the Company has failed to make required note payments to Kent noteholders in the amount of $333,333 that were due on April 23, 2001. The Company is in discussions with the Kent noteholders regarding such nonpayments; however, there can be no assurance that such discussions will result in an outcome favorable to the Company. In connection with the exercise of stock options to purchase 138,322 shares (the "Option Shares") of the Company's common stock during fiscal 1997, Stephen M. Blinn, a former executive officer and current Director of the Company, executed a promissory note (the "Note") in favor of the Company for the aggregate exercise price of $594,111. The Note is due on the earlier of September 2, 2007 or the date upon which Mr. Blinn receives the proceeds of the sale of not less than 20,000 of the Option Shares (the "Maturity Date"). Interest accrues at the rate of 6.55%, compounding annually, and is payable on the earlier of the Maturity Date of the Note or upon certain Events of Default as defined in the Note. The principal balance of the Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest, was approximately $714,000 as of March 31, 2001. During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, Mr. Blinn has informed the Company that he understood that the terms of the Note permitted Mr. Blinn to satisfy in full his obligations under the Note by either (a) returning the Option Shares to the Company or (b) turning over to the Company any cash proceeds received by Mr. Blinn upon a sale of the Option Shares. The Company has informed Mr. Blinn that the Note is a full recourse promissory note, and that Mr. Blinn remains personally liable for all unpaid principal and interest under the Note. Due to Mr. Blinn's position regarding the Note and his failure to provide the Company or the Company's accountants with a copy of his personal financial statements or any other evidence of his ability to pay the amounts due under the Note, the Company has established a $714,000 reserve for notes receivable and, subsequent to the establishment of the reserve, the Company no longer recognizes as interest income accrued interest related to the Note. 12 As of March 31, 2001, the Company had warrants outstanding which provide it with potential sources of financing as outlined below. However, because of the current market value of the Company's common stock, it is unlikely that any subsequent proceeds may be realized by the Company. Securities Number Potential Outstanding Proceeds -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Class II Warrants 290,424 $2,613,816 Representative Warrants 170,000 1,436,500 Bank Austria AG, f/k/a Creditanstalt, Warrants 150,000 694,000 Sovereign Warrants 50,000 25,500 Sovereign Warrants 50,000 7,810 ------------- $4,777,376 ============= As of March 31, 2001, the Company also has outstanding 271,803 Class I Warrants. The Class I Warrants entitle the holder to purchase an amount of shares of the Company's common stock equal to an aggregate of up to 19.9% of the shares of common stock purchasable under the Company's outstanding warrants and options on the same terms and conditions of existing warrant and option holders. The purchaser is obligated to exercise these warrants at the same time the options and warrants of existing holders are exercised, subject to certain limitations. The amount of proceeds from the exercise of these warrants cannot be estimated at this time; however, for reasons stated above it is unlikely that any proceeds would be realized by the Company. On February 20, 1997, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the "1997 Agreement") with a bank pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to $5.0 million on a term loan basis and up to $5.0 million on a revolving credit basis, subject to certain performance criteria. As part of the 1997 Agreement, the Company issued to the bank warrants to purchase 150,000 shares of the common stock at a purchase price of $4.625 per share. The warrants expire December 31, 2003. As noted in the next paragraph below, the Company has entered into a new credit facility and retired the 1997 Agreement. On April 15, 1999, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the "1999 Agreement") with Fleet National Bank ("Fleet") pursuant to which the Company could borrow $10.0 million on an acquisition line of credit, of which $7.0 million is on a term loan basis and $3.0 million is on a revolving line of credit basis, subject to certain performance criteria and an asset-related borrowing base for the revolver. The performance criteria include, among others, financial condition covenants such as net worth requirements, indebtedness to net worth ratios, debt service coverage ratios, funded debt coverage ratios, and pretax profit, net profit and EBITDA requirements. The acquisition line facility bore interest at either Fleet's prime rate, or LIBOR plus 2.25%, or at a comparable interest swap rate at the Company's election. The term loan facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% or at a comparable interest swap rate at the Company's election. The revolving credit facility bore interest at Fleet's prime rate or LIBOR plus 2.0% at the Company's election. At December 25, 1999, the Company was not in compliance with the following financial covenants of the 1999 Agreement: minimum net worth, minimum debt service coverage, maximum funded debt service coverage and minimum net profit. However, on March 31, 2000, the Company and Fleet entered into a modification agreement (the "Original Modification Agreement") that amended the 1999 Agreement in order to, among other things, waive the Company's default, adjust certain covenants to which the Company is subject and terminate the acquisition line of credit. In addition, the Original Modification Agreement limited the revolving line note to $2.5 million and the term loan to $6.75 million and established the maturity date for each of these credit lines as March 31, 2001. Also, the Original Modification Agreement established the following interest rates for both the revolving line note and term loan: (i) from March 31, 2000 through August 31, 2000 - prime rate plus 1.0%; (ii) from September 1, 2000 through October 31, 2000 - prime rate plus 2.0%; and (iii) from November 1, 2000 through March 31, 2001 - prime rate plus 3.0%. The scheduled monthly principal payments for the term loan were 13 adjusted to $83,333.33 from April 2000 through July 2000, $100,000.00 from August 2000 through December 2000 and $125,000.00 from January 2001 through March 2001. As part of the Original Modification Agreement, the Company issued to Fleet warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.51 per share which was equal to the average closing price of the common stock for the last five trading days for the month of August 2000, and warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $0.156 per share which was equal to the average closing price of the Company's common stock for the last five trading days for the month of December 2000. In August 2000, as a result of a bank merger, Sovereign became the successor party to Fleet in the Original Modification Agreement. On November 30, 2000, the Company and Sovereign entered into a second modification agreement (the "Second Modification Agreement") that amended the terms of the Original Modification Agreement in order to, among other things, defer certain payments required under the term note and amend certain terms and conditions of the 1999 Agreement. Sovereign deferred the required principal payments due on December 1, 2000 in the amount of $100,000 and on January 1, 2001 in the amount of $125,000 until March 1, 2001 and March 22, 2001, respectively. At December 30, 2000, the Company was in default for non-compliance with certain negative covenants contained in the Second Modification Agreement relating to minimum net worth, minimum debt service coverage, maximum funded debt service coverage and minimum net profit. On March 26, 2001, the Company and Sovereign entered into the Third Modification Agreement (the "Third Modification Agreement") that amended the terms of the Original Modification Agreement and the Second Modification Agreement in order to, among other things, waive the Company's default, adjust or delete certain covenants to which the Company was subject, change the repayment terms and extend the maturity date of the loans to December 31, 2002. In addition, the Third Modification Agreement required that the Company close an equity financing of at least $1.0 million with third party investors on or before May 31, 2001. The Third Modification Agreement establishes the following annual interest rates for both the revolving line and term loans: (i) from February 1, 2001 through September 30, 2001 - 6%; (ii) from October 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001 - 7%; (iii) from January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002 - prime rate subject to a minimum rate of 8% and a maximum rate of 11%. The scheduled monthly principal payments do not begin until July 1, 2001 and are $30,000 from July 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001, and $100,000 from January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002. As of March 31, 2001, $5.9 million was borrowed on the term loan and $2.5 million was borrowed on the revolving credit facility. On May 14, 2001, the Company and Sovereign amended and restated the Third Modification Agreement (the "Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement contains the same terms as the Third Modification Agreement, except that the Amended and Restated Third Modification Agreement no longer requires the Company to close an equity financing of at least $1.0 million on or before May 31, 2001, but instead requires the Company to close a financing or series of financings, either through the issuance of equity or debt subordinate to Sovereign, of at least $2.3 million with third party investors on or before July 16, 2001. The Company is presently in discussions with potential investors to obtain a financing or series of financings of at least $2.3 million on or before July 16, 2001; provided, however, there can no assurance that the Company will obtain such financing. The Company has an acquisition strategy to acquire and integrate the assets of multi-site eye care centers and the practices of eye care professionals and to employ or enter into management services contracts with these professionals. This strategy includes both expanding existing regional markets and entering new regional markets. The Company will also target acquisitions in strategic markets that will serve as platforms from which the Company can consolidate a given service area by making and integrating additional "in-market" acquisitions. The Company from time to time will evaluate potential acquisition candidates. Without additional funding, the Company's rate of acquisition and size of acquisition will be limited. Recent Accounting Pronouncements 14 In June, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as "derivatives") and for hedging activities. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133 effective the first day of fiscal 2001. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company is not currently involved in derivative instruments or hedging activities. Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company has not entered into any transactions using derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments and believes that its exposure to market risk associated with other financial instruments (such as investments) are not material. 15 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds On March 20, 2001, the Company issued an aggregate of 238,000 shares (the "Shawnee Shares") of its Common Stock, par value $.01 per share to Robert U. Leonardi, Judith R. Servis and Christopher J. Wolf (the "Shawnee Sellers") pursuant to a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release, dated March 20, 2001, with the Company. No underwriters were involved in the transaction listed above. The Shawnee Shares were issued as additional and final consideration in connection with the Company's acquisition of all of the capital stock of Shawnee Optical, Inc., effective January 1, 1999. The Company agreed to pay additional consideration to the Shawnee Sellers if the market price of the Company's Common Stock did not equal to or exceed $5.00 at any time during the period from January 22, 2000 to January 22, 2001. The market price of the Company's Common Stock did not equal or exceed $5.00 during such period. Because the shares were issued as additional consideration in connection with an acquisition, the Company did not receive any cash proceeds. The Company relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, because the above transactions did not involve any public offering by the Company. Item 6.
