Iron Age Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)

April 27, 2002

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended April 27, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended January 25, 2003. For further information, refer to Iron Age Corporation’s (“Iron Age” or the “Company”) consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended January 26, 2002.

                 
2. Inventories   April 27   January 26
Inventories consist of the following: 2002   2002

 
Raw materials
  $ 2,016     $ 2,060  
Work-in-process
    825       629  
Finished goods
    30,792       29,400  
 
   
     
 
 
  $ 33,633     $ 32,089  
 
   
     
 

3. Goodwill

Effective January 27, 2002, the Company was required to adopt FASB Statement No. 141, “Business Combinations”, and FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ” (the “Statements”). Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. The Company is in the process of completing step one of the impairment test to identify if there is potential impairment to the goodwill and intangible assets as of January 27, 2002. If the finalized results of step one of the impairment test indicate that the carrying value exceeds fair value of the Company’s reporting units, an impairment charge will be recorded as of January 27, 2002. Presently, market conditions and the Company’s performance are negatively impacting the initial impairment scenarios. If such tests which are required to be finalized by the end of the second quarter (July 27, 2002) ultimately indicate an impairment charge is required, the Company will record any write down retroactive to the first quarter results of operations as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The impairment charge would have no effect on cash, the covenants related to the Company’s Bank Credit Facility or the indentures for the Senior Subordinated Notes.

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

General

The following discussions should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the period ended April 27, 2002, and the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 26, 2002.

Results of Operations

Three Months ended April 27, 2002 compared to
Three Months ended April 28, 2001

Net Sales for the three months ended April 27, 2002 (“first quarter 2003”) were $27.6 million compared to $30.0 million for the comparable three month period ended April 28, 2001 (“first quarter 2002”), a decrease of $2.4 million, or 8.0%. The decrease in net sales was primarily attributable to a decrease in net sales of $1.8 million, or 6.0% in the Company’s primary footwear distribution business line, primarily related to a decline in the general economic environment, including plant closings and employee layoffs that affected the Company’s customers. In addition, net sales to non-affiliated customers in the Company’s manufacturing subsidiary decreased by $0.2 million, or 0.7%, for first quarter 2003 compared to first quarter 2002. Also, for first quarter 2003, there were no net sales related to the Company’s vision products business line, which was sold in December 2001, compared to $0.4 million in net sales for first quarter 2002, a decrease of $0.4 million, or 1.3% of the decrease in net sales.

Gross Profit was $14.0 million for first quarter 2003 and $15.6 million for first quarter 2002, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 10.3%. The decrease in gross profit was related to decreased net sales as discussed above. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit for first quarter 2003 decreased to 50.9%, a decrease of 1.2% from first quarter 2002. Gross profit percentage decreased in the Company’s primary footwear distribution business line by 2.0% for first quarter 2003, due primarily to increases in freight and duty costs, general changes in product mix and the impact of competitive pricing strategies. The increase in gross profit percentage was partially offset by a 2.4% increase in gross profit percentage in the Company’s manufacturing subsidiary.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses was $9.8 million for first quarter 2003 and $10.9 million for first quarter 2002, a decrease of $1.1 million, or 10.1%. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to the effect of employee related cost reductions, including salaries and wages, and other cost containment initiatives, including advertising costs and travel.

Table of Contents

Operating Income for first quarter 2003 was $3.3 million, or 12.0% of net sales, compared to $3.3 million, or 11.0% of net sales, for first quarter 2002.

Interest Expense for first quarter 2003 was $2.1 million compared to $2.1 million for first quarter 2002. Interest expense for first quarter 2002 included the favorable change of approximately $0.3 million in the fair market value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreement due to the decrease in interest rates in first quarter 2002. In addition, interest expense for first quarter 2003 decreased due to the effect of lower interest rates and decreased indebtedness relating to the Bank Credit Facility.

Income Tax Expense for first quarter 2003 was an income tax expense of $0.4 million compared to an income tax expense of $0.6 million for first quarter 2002. Income tax expense for first quarter 2002 differ from that of the statutory income tax rate due primarily to nondeductible goodwill amortization. Upon adoption of FASB Statement No. 142, the Company recorded no goodwill amortization for first quarter 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Amendment to the Bank Credit Facility

On December 10, 2001, the Bank Credit Facility was amended to (i) amend the definition of “Applicable Margin”; (ii) amend the definition of “EBITDA” and “Loan Value”, (iii) amend certain negative covenants, (iv) amend certain covenants relating to the “Leverage Ratio”, “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio”, “Interest Coverage Ratio” and “Capital Expenditures” for fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2003 and add a “Senior Leverage Ratio” for fiscal 2003 and (v) waive the restriction of asset sales, in order to permit the sale of assets related to the optical business line.

Sources and Uses of Cash

The Company’s primary cash needs are working capital, capital expenditures and debt service. The Company has financed cash requirements primarily through internally generated cash flow and funds borrowed under credit facilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 million for first quarter 2003, an increase of $2.8 million as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $0.6 million for first quarter 2002. The increase in cash provided by operating activities in first quarter 2003 from first quarter 2002 is primarily the result of overall increases in accrued expenses, including accrued interest and the receipt of a federal income tax refund.

The Company’s investing activities for first quarter 2003 consisted of capital expenditures of approximately $0.3 million for improvements in retail stores, shoemobiles and equipment and approximately $0.1 million for the acquisition of software for internal use. Capital expenditures of approximately $0.9 million for first quarter 2002 included capital expenditures related to improvements in retail stores, shoemobiles and equipment and approximately $0.1 million for the acquisition of software for internal use.

Table of Contents

The Company used approximately $3.5 million for financing activities for first quarter 2003, which primarily consisted of payments related to the Bank Credit Facility, including the scheduled principal payment of approximately $1.5 million on the Acquisition Term Loan.

The Company’s total working capital as of April 27, 2002 was $31.4 million. At January 26, 2002, working capital was $33.4 million.

Cash flow from operations for first quarter 2003 was sufficient to cover debt service requirements under the Bank Credit Facility. The Company’s ability to make scheduled payments of principal, or to pay the interest or premium (if any) on, or to refinance, its indebtedness, or to fund planned capital expenditures will depend on its future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond its control. Based upon the current level of operations, management believes that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under the Bank Credit Facility, will be adequate to meet the Company’s anticipated future requirements for working capital, budgeted capital expenditures and scheduled payments of principal and interest on its indebtedness for the next several years. There can be no assurance that the Company’s business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowing will be available under the Bank Credit Facility in an amount sufficient to enable the Company to service its indebtedness, including the Senior Subordinated Notes, or to make capital expenditures.

The Company’s debt consists of the Senior Subordinated Notes, the Bank Credit Facility and certain other debt. The Bank Credit Facility, as amended, consists of a $21.1 million acquisition term loan facility (the “Acquisition Term Loan”) and $20.0 million in revolving credit loans, letters of credit and swing line loans (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Company’s other debt of $0.7 million consists primarily of capital leases and other notes. As of April 27, 2002, approximately $15.8 million of the Acquisition Term Loan and approximately $7.8 million of the Revolving Credit Facility were outstanding. The Company has no additional borrowing availability under the Acquisition Term Loan and approximately $12.2 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Acquisition Term Loan matures in quarterly installments from July 2001 until final payment in April 2004. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature in April 2004 and has no scheduled interim principal payments.

The Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, senior subordinated basis by each Domestic Restricted Subsidiary that is a Material Subsidiary (as such terms are defined in the indenture for the Senior Subordinated Notes (the “Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture”)) (whether currently existing, newly acquired or created). Each such subsidiary guaranty (a “Subsidiary Guaranty”) will provide that the subsidiary guarantor, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, will irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee on an unsecured, senior subordinated basis the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all obligations of the Company under the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture and the Senior Subordinated Notes, whether for payment of principal or of interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise. As of April 27, 2002, none of the Company’s Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries was a Material Subsidiary, and therefore no Subsidiary Guaranty was in force or effect.

Debt Covenants

The Company’s Bank Credit Facility, which is guaranteed by Iron Age Holdings Corporation, the Company’s parent company (“Holdings”), requires Holdings to maintain certain financial ratios. Holdings and the subsidiaries whose debt Holdings guarantees complied with these covenants as of April 27, 2002. If the Company defaults on this debt, due to cross-default provisions in the indentures for Holdings’ 12 1/8% Senior Discount Notes due 2009 and Senior Subordinated Notes, this debt would also be in default. The Company’s ability to avoid a default will depend on an improvement in its results of operations in the fiscal year ending January 25, 2003. Expectations of future operating results and continued compliance with the debt covenants cannot be assured. If projections of future operating results are not achieved and waivers are not obtained and the debt is in default, the Company could experience a material adverse impact on its reported financial position and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, “Business Combinations”, and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. Other intangible assets will continue to be amortized over their useful lives.

Effective January 27, 2002, the Company was required to adopt FASB Statement No. 141, “Business Combinations”, and FASB Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ” (the “Statements”). Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statements. The Company is in the process of completing step one of the impairment test to identify if there is potential impairment to the goodwill and intangible assets as of January 27, 2002. If the finalized results of step one of the impairment test indicate that the carrying value exceeds fair value of the Company’s reporting units, an impairment charge will be recorded as of January 27, 2002. Presently, market conditions and the Company’s performance are negatively impacting the initial impairment scenarios. If such tests which are required to be finalized by the end of the second quarter (July 27, 2002) ultimately indicate an impairment charge is required, the Company will record any write down retroactive to the first quarter results of operations as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The impairment charge would have no effect on cash, the covenants related to the Company’s Bank Credit Facility or the indentures for the Senior Subordinated Notes.

Effective January 27, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (“FAS 144”), “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,”. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This Statement supercedes FAS Statement No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of,” and the accounting and reporting provisions of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations-Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions,” for the disposal of a segment of a business (as previously defined in that Opinion). FAS 144 has had no material impact on the financial statements of the Company for the three months ended April 27, 2002.

Inflation and Changing Prices

The Company’s sales and costs are subject to inflation and price fluctuations. However, they

historically have not, and in the future are not expected to have, a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Forward Looking Statements

When used in this quarterly report, the words “believes”, “anticipates”, “expects” and similar expressions are used to identify forward looking statements. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. The Company wishes to caution readers that the following important factors and others in some cases have affected and in the future could affect the Company’s actual results and could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward statements made by the Company: (i) economic conditions in the safety shoe market, (ii) availability of credit, (iii) increase in interest rates, (iv) cost of raw materials, (v) inability to maintain state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, (vi) heightened competition, including intensification of price and service competition, the entry of new competitors and the introduction of new products by existing competitors, (vii) inability to capitalize on opportunities presented by industry consolidation, (viii) loss or retirement of key executives, (ix) loss or disruption of the Company’s relationships with its major suppliers, including the Company’s largest supplier in China and (x) inability to grow by acquisition of additional safety shoe distributors or to effectively consolidate operations of businesses acquired.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

The Company is exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

The following discussion of the Company’s exposure to various market risks contains “forward looking statements” that are subject to risks and uncertainties. These projected results have been prepared utilizing certain assumptions considered reasonable in the circumstances and in light of information currently available to the Company. Nevertheless, because of the inherent unpredictability of interest rates and foreign currency translation rates, actual results could differ materially from those projected in such forward looking statements.

Interest Rates

At April 27, 2002, the Company had fixed-rate debt totaling $65.7 million in principal amount and having a fair value of $29.9 million. These instruments bear interest at a fixed rate and, therefore, do not expose the Company to the risk of earnings loss due to changes in market interest rates. However, the fair value of these instruments would decrease (to the holder) by approximately $3.0 million if interest rates were to increase by 10% from their levels at April 27, 2002 (i.e., an increase from the weighted average interest rate of 9.9% to a weighted average interest rate of 10.9%).

At April 27, 2002, the Company had variable-rate debt totaling $23.6 million in principal amount and having a fair value of $23.6 million. These borrowings are under the Bank Credit Facility. If interest rates were to increase by 10% from their levels at April 27, 2002, the Company would incur additional annual interest expense of approximately $0.1 million.

Foreign Exchange Rates

Information relating to the sensitivity to foreign currency exchange rate changes is omitted as foreign exchange exposure risk has not materially changed from that disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 26, 2002.
