For the year ended September 30, 2000, the Company had total revenues of $77,589,129 compared to total revenue of $37,796,392 for the year ended September 30, 1999, an increase of 105%. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to the sales generated by the Company’s acquisition of 37 restaurants in Mississippi and Louisiana in January and 73 restaurants in Central and Northern Florida and Georgia in September of Fiscal Year 2000. The remaining sales increase was due to an increase in comparable sales of 10.4% for the year, for stores owned and operated at least one full year.

“We are pleased with the growth of the company over the past year which has exceeded our revenue and profit goals. The comparable store sales increases of 10.4% is exceptional, however comparable store sales increases for Fiscal Year 2001 are not expected to be as great as Fiscal Year 2000,” stated Robert S.
