2

PART I (contd)
2n1 is operated under a franchise from KFC Corporation and a license from A&W Restaurants, Inc.
The Company considers retention of these agreements to be important to the success of its
restaurant business and believes that its relationships with KFC Corporation, Taco Bell
Corporation, Pizza Hut Corporation and A&W Restaurants, Inc. are satisfactory. For KFC products,
the Company is required to pay royalties of 4% of gross revenues and to expend an additional 5.5%
of gross revenues on national and local advertising pursuant to its franchise agreements. For Taco
Bell products in KFC/Taco Bell 2n1 restaurants operated under license agreements from Taco Bell
Corporation and franchise agreements from KFC Corporation the Company is required to pay royalties
of 10% of Taco Bell gross revenues and to make advertising fund contributions of 1/2% of Taco Bell
gross revenues. For Taco Bell product sales in restaurants operated under Taco Bell franchises the
Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of gross revenues and to expend an additional 4.5% of
gross revenues on national and local advertising. For Pizza Hut products in 2n1 restaurants the
Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of Pizza Hut gross revenues and to expend an

In May 1997, the Company renewed substantially all of its then existing franchise agreements for
twenty years. New 20 year franchise agreements were obtained for all 54 restaurants acquired in
July 1999. Subject to satisfying KFC and Taco Bell requirements for restaurant image and other
matters, franchise agreements are renewable at the Companys option for successive ten year
periods. The franchise and license agreements provide that each KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut Express
and A&W unit is to be inspected by KFC Corporation, Taco Bell Corporation, Pizza Hut Corporation
and A&W Restaurants, Inc., respectively, approximately three or four times per year. These
inspections cover product preparation and quality, customer service, restaurant appearance and
operation.
Competition
The quick service restaurant business is highly competitive and is often affected by changes in
consumer tastes; national, regional, or local economic conditions, demographic trends, traffic
patterns; the type, number and locations of competing restaurants and disposable purchasing power.
Each of the Companys KFC, Taco Bell and 2n1 restaurants competes directly or indirectly with a
large number of national and regional restaurant operations, as well as with locally owned
restaurants, drive-ins, diners and numerous other establishments which offer low- and medium-priced
chicken, Mexican food, pizza, hamburgers and hot dogs to the public.
The Companys KFC, Taco Bell and 2n1 restaurants rely on innovative marketing techniques and
promotions to compete with other restaurants in the areas in which they are located. The Companys
competitive position is also enhanced by the national advertising programs sponsored by KFC
Corporation, Taco Bell Corporation, Pizza Hut Corporation, A&W Restaurants, Inc. and their
franchisees. Emphasis is placed by the Company on its control systems and the training of
personnel to maintain high food quality and good service. The Company believes that its KFC, Taco
Bell and 2n1 restaurants are competitive with other quick service restaurants on the basis
of the important competitive factors in the restaurant business which
3
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART I (contd)
include, primarily, restaurant location, product price, quality and differentiation, and also
restaurant and employee appearance.
Government Regulation
The Company is subject to various federal, state and local laws affecting its business. Each of
the Companys restaurants must comply with licensing and regulation by a number of governmental
authorities, which include health, sanitation, safety and fire agencies in the state or
municipality in which the restaurant is located.
The Company is also subject to federal and state laws governing such matters as employment and pay
practices, overtime and working conditions. The bulk of the Companys employees are paid on an
hourly basis at rates not less than the federal and state minimum wages.
The Company is also subject to federal and state child labor laws which, among other things,
prohibit the use of certain hazardous equipment by employees 18 years of age or younger.
Suppliers
The Company has been able to obtain sufficient supplies to carry on its business and believes it
will be able to do so in the future.
Growth
The Company added no new restaurants in fiscal 2007 or fiscal 2006.
Employees
As of May 11, 2007, the Company employed approximately 2,147 persons, including 52 administrative
and 251 managerial employees. The balance are hourly employees, most of whom are part-time. None
of the restaurant employees are represented by a labor union. The Company considers its employee
relations to be satisfactory.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The Company faces a variety of risks inherent in general business and in the restaurant industry
specifically, including operational, legal, regulatory and product risks. Certain significant
factors that could adversely affect the operations and results of the Company are discussed below.
Other risk factors that the Company cannot anticipate may develop, including risk factors that
the Company does not currently consider to be significant.
|
- |
|
Due to the Companys reliance on poultry in its menu items, an outbreak of the
avian influenza in the United States could cause a shortage of chicken or
could cause unreasonable panic in the |
4
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART I (contd)
public related to the consumption of chicken products, either of which would likely have
a significant adverse impact on the Companys business.
|
- |
|
The Company faces significant image enhancement and relocation requirements in
future fiscal years as described under Other Contractual Obligations and Commitments
in Part II of this report. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to
obtain sale/leaseback or debt financing on terms which it finds reasonably acceptable to
fund these obligations when due. Lack of acceptable financing could have a material
adverse affect on the operations of the Company, including the loss of restaurants
subject to enhancement or relocation requirements under applicable franchise agreements. |
|
|
- |
|
The food supply in general is subject to the accidental or intentional
introduction of contaminants which can cause illness or death in humans. To the extent
that the Companys food supplies become impacted by any of these contaminants, the
Companys revenue could be significantly reduced and the Company could be subjected to
related liability claims. |
|
|
- |
|
The Company is involved in various commercial activities in the operation of its
restaurants. These activities may generate the potential for legal claims against the
Company. While many of these risks are covered by insurance, the costs of litigating
large claims and any potential resulting uninsured liability could have a material
adverse effect on the Companys results of operations. |
|
|
- |
|
In operating its restaurants, the Company is the owner of many real estate
parcels. Environmental problems at any of these sites could cause significant costs and
liabilities for the Company. |
|
|
- |
|
The Company is exposed to numerous cost pressures in the operation of its
restaurants including food, fuel and minimum wage increases. To the extent that the
business environment prohibits the Company from passing on these increased costs in its
selling prices, there could be a material negative impact on the results of operations. |
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company leases approximately 6,000 square feet of space for its headquarters in Cleveland, OH.
The lease expires December 31, 2011 and the rent under the current term is $6,300 per month. The
Company also leases space for a regional office in Youngstown, OH, which is used to assist in the
operation of the KFC, Taco Bell and 2n1 restaurants.
Of the 97 KFC, Taco Bell and 2n1 restaurants, the Company owns the land and building for 56
locations, owns the building and leases the land for 23 locations and leases the land and building
for 18 locations. 56 of the owned properties are subject to mortgages. Additionally, the Company
leases the land and building for one closed location and owns the land and building for two closed
locations which are subject to mortgages, all three of which are leased to an operator of an
independent local restaurant concept. Remaining lease terms (including renewal options) range from
1 to 29 years and average approximately 12 years. These leases generally require the Company to
pay taxes and utilities, to maintain casualty and liability insurance, and to
5
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART I (contd)
keep the property in good repair. The Company pays annual rent for each leased KFC, Taco Bell or
2n1 restaurant in amounts ranging from $19,000 to $95,000. In addition, 12 of these leases
require payment of additional rentals based on a percentage of gross sales in excess of certain
base amounts. Sales for 8 KFC, Taco Bell and 2n1 restaurants exceeded the respective base
amounts in fiscal 2007.
The Company believes that its restaurants are generally efficient, well equipped and maintained and
in good condition.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Revenues
Revenue was $91,248,000 in fiscal 2007, an increase of $3,791,000 or 4.3% compared to fiscal 2006.
The $3,791,000 increase in restaurant revenues during fiscal 2007 was due mainly to a 5.0%
increase in comparable restaurant revenues resulting from continuing effective products and
promotions from the franchisors. Revenue was $87,457,000 in fiscal 2006, an increase of
$6,497,000 or 8.0% compared to fiscal 2005. The $6,497,000 increase in restaurant revenues during
fiscal 2006 was due mainly to an 8.5% increase in comparable restaurant revenues resulting from
continuing effective promotions from the franchisors and $891,000 in revenues lost from locations
that were closed for the repair of damages during fiscal 2005. The increases were partially
offset by $957,000 in revenues being lost in fiscal 2006 due to the permanent closing of 3
locations in fiscal 2005 and 1 location in fiscal 2006.
Revenues for the 16 weeks ended February 25, 2007, were $25,822,000, an increase of $689,000,
primarily the result of a 3.3% increase in comparable restaurant revenues. This increase was due
to successful product promotions including the KFC bowls and variety bucket and the fajita
quesadilla at Taco Bell. Revenues for the 16 weeks ended February 26, 2006, were $25,133,000, an
increase of $1,497,000, primarily the result of a 5.4% increase in comparable restaurant revenues.
This increase was due to successful product promotions including the KFC value meals, variety
bucket and the wings flavor station promotion. These revenue increases were partially offset by the
decreases in revenues caused by the restaurants either temporarily or permanently closed as
discussed above.
Cost of Sales Food, Paper and Beverage
Food, paper and beverage costs were $27,981,000 or 30.7% of revenues in fiscal year 2007 compared
to $27,146,000 or 31.0% in fiscal year 2006. The results included higher fuel surcharges for the
current year period which were offset by increased efficiencies due to higher average restaurant
volumes. Food, paper and beverage costs were $27,146,000 or 31.0% of revenues in fiscal year 2006
compared to $25,222,000 or 31.2% in fiscal year 2005. The decrease as a percentage of sales was
primarily caused by increased efficiencies due to higher average restaurant volumes but partially
offset by higher supply delivery costs due to fuel surcharges.
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, food, paper and beverage costs decreased as a percentage of
revenues to 29.9% from 31.1% in the fourth quarter fiscal 2006. The decrease of 1.2% of revenues
was primarily due to improved efficiencies due to higher restaurant volumes in the fiscal 2007
fourth quarter.

PART II (contd)
Cost of Sales Labor and Benefits
Labor and benefits increased to 27.2% of revenues or $24,798,000 in fiscal 2007 from 26.5% of
revenues or $23,186,000 in fiscal 2006 due to minimum wage increases and higher health and welfare
costs. Labor and benefits decreased to 26.5% of revenues or $23,186,000 in fiscal 2006 from 28.2%
of revenues or $22,803,000 in fiscal 2005 due to significant improvements in labor efficiency
related to higher average restaurant volumes and lower health and welfare costs.
Labor and benefit costs for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 increased to 29.7% of revenues or
$7,668,000 compared to 27.7% of revenues or $6,958,000 in fiscal 2006. This percentage increase was
primarily the result of minimum wage increases and higher health and welfare costs.
Restaurant Operating Expenses
Restaurant operating expenses decreased as a percentage to 24.9% of revenues or $22,765,000 in
fiscal 2007 from 25.4% of revenues or $22,190,000 in fiscal 2006. This decrease was primarily the
result of higher average restaurant volumes. Restaurant operating expenses decreased to 25.4% of
revenues or $22,190,000 in fiscal 2006 from 26.0% of revenues or $21,015,000 in fiscal 2005. This
decrease was primarily the result of higher average restaurant volumes.
Restaurant operating expenses for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 decreased as a percentage to
25.7% of revenues or $6,626,000 from 26.1% of revenues or $6,547,000 in the year earlier quarter.
This decrease was primarily the result of higher average restaurant volumes.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization decreased by $304,000 to $2,950,000 in fiscal 2007 from $3,254,000 in
fiscal 2006 as a result of certain assets becoming fully depreciated during the year. Depreciation
and amortization decreased slightly to $3,254,000 in fiscal 2006 from $3,419,000 in fiscal 2005 as
a result of certain assets becoming fully depreciated during the year.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased to $5,428,000 or 5.9% of revenues in fiscal 2007 from
$5,133,000 or 5.9% of revenues in fiscal 2006 primarily as a result of increases in officers
salary expense, field administrative salaries and health and welfare expense. General and
administrative expenses increased to $5,133,000 or 5.9% of revenues in fiscal 2006 from $4,870,000
or 6.0% of revenues in fiscal 2005 primarily as a result of increased legal and accounting costs
incurred during fiscal 2006, much of which related to the reversal of the proposed financial
restructuring.
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,761,000
or 6.8% of revenues from $1,441,000 or 5.9% of revenues in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 for
the reasons discussed above.

MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
Loss (gain) on Restaurant Assets
The Company experienced a loss on restaurant assets of $5,000 in fiscal 2007 compared to a gain of
$715,000 in fiscal 2006. The 2006 amount represents the gains on restaurant assets replaced
through insurance proceeds received for flood damages. The 2005 amount includes impairment losses
of $823,000 on nine restaurants to reduce their carrying values to their estimated fair values.
These impairment losses were partially offset by gains totaling $167,000 which were recognized for
property damage insurance proceeds received in excess of the net book value of the related
property, and $178,000 for business interruption insurance proceeds received. These insurance
proceeds relate to two restaurants damaged from the Hurricane Ivan storm system and one
fire-damaged restaurant. Insurance proceeds which will result in a gain are recognized in the
financial statements only when such gains are realized, which is generally upon receipt of the
proceeds.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 and also in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company
recorded no significant activity in gains or losses on restaurant assets.
Operating Income
Operating income in fiscal 2007 increased to $7,321,000 from $7,263,000 in fiscal 2006 primarily as
a result of higher revenues and improved operating efficiencies as discussed above. Operating
income in fiscal 2006 increased to $7,263,000 from $3,057,000 in fiscal 2005 primarily as a result
of higher revenues and improved operating efficiencies, and substantial net gains on the disposal
of restaurant assets as discussed above.
Interest Expense
Interest expense on bank debt and notes payable decreased to $3,762,000 in fiscal 2007 from
$4,078,000 in fiscal 2006. Interest expense on bank debt and notes payable decreased to $4,078,000
in fiscal 2006 from $4,341,000 in fiscal 2005. The decreases in interest expense for fiscal 2007
and 2006 were the result of principal payments which reduced the outstanding debt balances.
Interest expense from capitalized lease debt increased to $117,000 in fiscal 2007 from $89,000 in
fiscal 2006 as a result of a full year of interest expense for a conversion of a previously owned
restaurant to a capitalized lease during the 2006 fiscal year. Interest expense from capitalized
lease debt increased to $89,000 in fiscal 2006 from $45,000 in fiscal 2005 due to the conversion of
a previously owned restaurant to a capitalized lease during the 2006 fiscal year.
Other Income
Other income increased to $221,000 in fiscal 2007 compared to $154,000 in fiscal 2006 primarily due
to $71,000 of income from sub-leased properties. Other income increased to $154,000 in fiscal 2006
compared to $78,000 in fiscal 2005 primarily due to $34,000 of income from vending machines placed
in the Companys restaurants.
12
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes increased by $323,000 to a provision of $136,000 in fiscal 2007
compared to benefit of ($187,000) for fiscal 2006. The provision for income taxes decreased by
$1,077,000 to a benefit of $(187,000) in fiscal 2006 compared to fiscal 2005 due to a $1,151,000
change in deferred income taxes primarily as a result of the Companys judgment regarding the
valuation reserve and the realization of the deferred tax asset offset by a current tax accrual of
$81,000 in fiscal 2006, primarily for alternative minimum taxes compared to a current accrual in
fiscal 2005 of $7,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flow activity for fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 is presented in the Consolidated Statements of
Cash Flows. Cash provided by operating activities was $7,121,000 for the year ended February 25,
2007 compared to $5,922,000 for the year ended February 26, 2006. The increase in operating cash
flow was primarily the result of favorable changes in deferred tax assets, prepaids and accruals
during fiscal 2007. Cash provided by operating activities was $5,922,000 for the year ended
February 26, 2006 compared to $3,066,000 for the year ended February 27, 2005. The increase in
operating cash flow was primarily the result of the high level of net income for fiscal 2006. The
Company paid long-term bank and capitalized lease debt of $3,141,000 in fiscal 2007 compared to
payments of $3,247,000 in fiscal 2006. Proceeds from stock option exercises were $498,000 in
fiscal 2007. In 2006, the Company received proceeds of $912,000 from a sale/leaseback transaction
of one of its restaurant properties. Capital expenditures in fiscal 2007 were $2,970,000, compared
to $1,502,000 in fiscal 2006. This increase is primarily a result of the image enhancement of five
restaurants.
The Companys debt arrangements require the maintenance of a consolidated fixed charge coverage
ratio of 1.2 to 1 regarding all of the Companys mortgage loans and the maintenance of individual
restaurant fixed charge coverage ratios of between 1.2 and 1.5 to 1 on certain of the Companys
mortgage loans. Fixed charge coverage ratios are calculated by dividing the cash flow before rent
and debt service for the previous 12 months by the debt service and rent due in the coming 12
months. The consolidated and individual coverage ratios are computed quarterly. At the end of
fiscal 2007, the Company was in compliance with the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of
1.2. However, at the end of fiscal 2007 the Company was not in compliance with the individual
fixed charge coverage ratio on 25 of its restaurant properties and has obtained waivers of these
violations.
Financial Restructuring
Beginning in the second half of fiscal 2005, the Company engaged in discussions with its three
primary lenders with the intent of securing short term, temporary reductions in its debt service
payments to conserve cash and to allow the Company to execute sale/leaseback financing on a number
of its owned restaurant properties. On February 7, 2005, the Company reduced its debt service
payments to interest only on loans with one lender representing 50.2% of the principal balance of
all of the Companys loans. Due to the improvement in the Companys operating performance in early
fiscal 2006, the financial restructuring was not deemed by management to be advisable and the
initiative was terminated. Upon termination of the
13
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
initiative, all deferred principal payments were made current and related late payment penalties of
$74,000 were paid, putting the Company in good standing relating to all of its loan facilities.
Market Risk Exposure
The Companys existing borrowings are at fixed interest rates, and accordingly the Company does not
have market risk exposure for fluctuations in interest rates. The Company does not enter into
derivative financial investments for trading or speculation purposes. Also, the Company is subject
to volatility in food costs as a result of market risk and we manage that risk through the use of
longer term purchasing contracts. Our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing
is, at times, limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. The Company believes
that its market risk exposure is not material to the Companys financial position, liquidity or
results of operations.
The Companys contractual obligations and commitments as of February 25, 2007 were as follows:

Other Contractual Obligations and Commitments
For KFC products, the Company is required to pay royalties of 4% of gross revenues and to expend an
additional 5.5% of gross revenues on national and local advertising pursuant to its franchise
agreements. For Taco Bell products in KFC/Taco 2n1 restaurants operated under license agreements
from Taco Bell Corporation and franchise agreements from KFC Corporation, the Company is required
to pay royalties of 10% of Taco Bell gross revenues and to make advertising fund contributions of
1/2% of Taco Bell gross revenues. For Taco Bell product sales in restaurants operated under Taco
Bell franchises the Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of gross revenues and to expend an
additional 4.5% of gross revenues on national and local advertising. For Pizza Hut products in
Taco Bell/Pizza Hut Express 2n1 restaurants the Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of
Pizza Hut gross revenues and to expend an additional 4.5% of Pizza Hut gross revenues on national
and local advertising. For A&W products in 2n1 restaurants the Company is required to pay
royalties of 7% of A&W gross revenues and to expend an additional 4% of A&W gross revenues on
national and local advertising. Total royalties and advertising, which are included in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations as part of restaurant operating expenses, were $9,005,000,
$8,591,000 and $8,033,000 in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
14
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
In fiscal year 2000 the Company signed an agreement and prepaid franchise fees of $170,000 which
granted it the rights to develop 20 KFC, Taco Bell or KFC 2n1 restaurants in specific geographic
areas. Under the agreement five restaurants are required to be developed each year over a four
year period. As of February 25, 2007 the Company has developed only five restaurants under this
agreement. The status of the development agreements has been discussed with the franchisors and
the Company has not been declared in default of the KFC agreement. If the Company should be
declared in default on the KFC agreement, it could lose the rights to develop certain KFC
restaurants and could forfeit the remaining balance of prepaid franchise fees, which was $60,000 at
February 25, 2007. The Company believes that noncompliance with the KFC development agreement will
not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The franchise agreements with KFC and Taco Bell Corporation require the Company to upgrade and
remodel its restaurants to comply with the franchisors current standards within agreed upon
timeframes. If a property is of usable size and configuration, the Company can perform an image
enhancement to bring the building to the current image of the franchisor. If the property is not
large enough to fit a drive-thru or has some other deficiency, the Company would need to relocate
the restaurant to another location within the trade area to meet the franchisors requirements. In
order to meet the terms and conditions of the franchise agreements, the Company has the following

These amounts are based on current construction cost estimates and actual costs may vary. |

Generally at the time relocation of an existing restaurant is required, the related assets
have been depreciated or amortized to a low net book value. If an economically suitable new
location cannot be obtained, the Company may choose to close the restaurant and abandon the
remaining assets. |
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to accomplish the image enhancements and
relocations required in the franchise agreements on terms acceptable to the Company. If the
Company is unable to meet the requirements of a franchise agreement, the franchisor may choose to
extend the time allowed for compliance or may terminate the franchise agreement.

MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
Seasonality
The operations of the Company are affected by seasonal fluctuations. Historically, the Companys
revenues and income have been highest during the summer months with the fourth fiscal quarter
representing the slowest period. This seasonality is primarily attributable to weather conditions
in the Companys marketplace, which consists of portions of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Missouri, Illinois,
West Virginia and New York.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Companys reported results are impacted by the application of certain accounting policies that
require it to make subjective or complex judgments or to apply complex accounting requirements.
These judgments include estimations about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and
may significantly impact its quarterly or annual results of operations, financial condition or cash
flows. Changes in the estimates and judgments could significantly affect results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows in future years. The Company believes that its critical
accounting policies are as follows:
|
|
Estimating future cash flows and fair value of assets associated
with assessing potential impairment of long-lived tangible and
intangible assets and projected compliance with debt covenants. |
|
|
Determining the appropriate valuation allowances for deferred tax
assets and reserves for potential tax exposures. See Note 8 to
the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of income
taxes. |
|
|
Applying complex lease accounting requirements to the Companys
capital and operating leases of property and equipment. The
Company leases the building or land, or both, for nearly one-half
of its restaurants. See Note 6 to the consolidated financial
statements for a discussion of lease accounting. |
New Accounting Standards
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
TaxesAn Interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109. FIN 48 clarifies
the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements,
and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement
recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN
48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosure and transition. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is determining the effect, if any, that the
adoption of FIN 48 will have on its financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines
fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157
apply under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The Company does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a
material impact on its financial position, results of operations or related disclosures.
16
MORGANS FOODS, INC.
PART II (contd)
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 108 (SAB No. 108), Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when
Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB No. 108 expresses the SEC
staffs view regarding the process of quantifying and evaluating financial statement misstatements.
SAB No. 108 provides interpretive guidance on how to consider the effects of carryovers or
reversals of prior year misstatements in quantifying a current year misstatement. The SEC staff
believes that both the rollover (income statement) and iron curtain (balance sheet) approaches
should be used to provide a meaningful analysis of the materiality of uncorrected errors. SAB No.
108 is effective for annual financial statements covering the first fiscal year ending after
November 15, 2006. The Companys application of the guidance contained in SAB No. 108 in fiscal
2007 did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
Safe Harbor Statements
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. The statements include those identified by such words as may, will, expect
anticipate, believe, plan and other similar terminology. The forward-looking statements
reflect the Companys current expectations and are based upon data available at the time of the
statements. Actual results involve risks and uncertainties, including both those specific to the
Company and general economic and industry factors. Factors specific to the Company include, but
are not limited to, its debt covenant compliance, actions that lenders may take with respect to any
debt covenant violations, and its ability to obtain waivers of any debt covenant violations and its
ability to pay all of its current and long-term obligations.
Economic and industry risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited, to, franchisor
promotions, business and economic conditions, legislation and governmental regulation, competition,
success of operating initiatives and advertising and promotional efforts, volatility of commodity
costs and increases in minimum wage and other operating costs, availability and cost of land and
construction, consumer preferences, spending patterns and demographic trends.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Companys debt is all at fixed interest rates, not publicly traded and there are few lenders or
financing transactions for similar debt in the marketplace at this time. The Company is subject to
volatility in food costs as a result of market risk and we manage that risk through the use of
longer term purchasing contracts. Our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing
is, at times, limited by the competitive environment in which we operate.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are set forth in Item 15 of this Report.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
During fiscal 2007, the Company retained Grant Thornton LLP as its independent auditor to replace
Deloitte & Touche LLP. The Company has had no disagreements with its accountants on accounting and
financial disclosure matters.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was evaluated as of the date of the
financial statements. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision of and with the
participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer.
Based on that evaluation, management concluded that as of February 25, 2007 the design and
operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures appears to be adequate.

REPORTS OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMS
Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Morgans Foods, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Morgans Foods, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the Company) as of February 25, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the year then ended. These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 2007 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Morgans Foods, Inc. and subsidiaries as of February
25, 2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed further in Note 1, effective February 27, 2006 the Company adopted Statement of
Financial Accounts Standards No. 123R, Share-Based Payment.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
February 25, 2007, February 26, 2006 and February 27, 2005
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Description of Business Morgans Foods, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) operate 71 KFC
restaurants, 7 Taco Bell restaurants, 14 KFC/Taco Bell 2n1 restaurants, 3 Taco Bell/Pizza Hut
Express 2n1 restaurants, 1 KFC/Pizza Hut Express 2n1 and 1 KFC/A&W 2n1, in the states of
Illinois, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New York. The Companys fiscal year is a
52-53 week year ending on the Sunday nearest the last day of February.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions pending completion of related events. These estimates and assumptions include the
recoverability of tangible and intangible asset values, the probability of receiving insurance
proceeds, projected compliance with financing agreements and the realizability of deferred tax
assets. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported at the date of the financial
statements for assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingencies.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Company. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Revenue Recognition The Company recognizes revenue as customers pay for products at the time of
sale.
Advertising Costs The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was
$5,165,000, $4,905,000 and $4,623,000 for fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Cash and Investments The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an
initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventories Inventories, principally food, beverages and paper products, are stated at the lower
of aggregate cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.
Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows:
buildings and improvements 3 to 20 years; equipment, furniture and fixtures 3 to 10 years.
Leasehold improvements are amortized over 3 to 15 years, which is the shorter of the life of the
asset or the life of the lease. The asset values of the capitalized leases are amortized using the
straight-line method over the lives of the respective leases which range from 15 to 20 years.

MORGANS FOODS, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
February 25, 2007, February 26, 2006 and February 27, 2005
Management assesses the carrying value of property and equipment whenever there is an indication of
potential impairment, including quarterly assessments of any restaurant with negative cash flows.
If the property and equipment of a restaurant on a held and used basis are not recoverable based
upon forecasted, undiscounted cash flows, the assets are written down to their fair value.
Management uses a valuation methodology to determine fair value, which is the sum of the
restaurants business value and real estate value. Business value is determined using a cash flow
multiplier based upon market conditions and estimated cash flows of the restaurant. Real estate
value is generally determined based upon the discounted market value of implied rent of the owned
assets. Management believes the carrying value of property and equipment, after impairment
write-downs (see Note 2), will be recovered from future cash flows.
Deferred Financing Costs Costs related to the acquisition of long-term debt are capitalized and
expensed as interest over the term of the related debt. Amortization expense was $108,000,
$115,000 and $121,000 for fiscal years 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The balance of deferred
financing costs was $644,000 at February 25, 2007 and $752,000 at February 26, 2006 and is included
in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Franchise Agreements Franchise agreements are recorded at cost. Amortization is computed on the
straight-line method over the term of the franchise agreement. The Companys franchise agreements
are predominantly 20 years in length.
Goodwill Goodwill represents the cost of acquisitions in excess of the fair value of identifiable
assets. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to assessment for impairment
whenever there is an indication of impairment or at least annually as of fiscal year end by
applying a fair value based test.
Advance on Supply Agreements In conjunction with entering into contracts that require the Company
to sell exclusively the specified beverage products for the term of the contract, the Company has
received advances from the supplier. The Company amortizes advances on supply agreements as a
reduction of food, paper and beverage cost of sales over the term of the related contract using the
straight-line method. These advances of $467,000 and $589,000 at February 25, 2007 and February
26, 2006, respectively, are included in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance
sheets net of $613,000 and $601,000 included in accrued liabilities as of such date.
Lease Accounting Operating lease expense is recognized on the straight-line basis over the term
of the lease for those leases with fixed escalations. The difference between the scheduled amounts
and the straight-line amounts is accrued. These accruals of $417,000 and $419,000 at February 25,
2007 and February 26, 2006, respectively, are included in other long-term liabilities in the
consolidated balance sheets net of $33,000 and $22,000 included in accrued liabilities as of such
date.

MORGANS FOODS, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
February 25, 2007, February 26, 2006 and February 27, 2005
Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is based upon income or loss before tax for financial
reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their
carrying values for financial reporting purposes. Deferred tax assets are also recorded for
operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred
tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized in the future, based on an evaluation
of historical and projected profitability.
Stock-Based Compensation In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123R, Share-Based Payment. The
Company has adopted these provisions effective February 27, 2006 utilizing the modified prospective
application method, and has determined that there is no effect on currently outstanding options as
all options issued and outstanding at February 25, 2007 and February 27, 2006 were fully vested .
To the extent that the Company grants options or other share-based payments after February 26,
2006, SFAS 123R is expected to reduce the operating results of the Company. Had compensation cost
for the options granted prior to February 27, 2006 been determined based on their fair values at
the grant dates in accordance with the fair value method of SFAS 123R, the Companys pro forma net
income and earnings per share amounts would not have differed materially from the reported amounts.
No amounts of share-based employee compensation cost were included in net income, as reported, for
any of the periods presented herein. See Note 9 for further discussion.
NOTE 2. (GAIN) LOSS ON RESTAURANT ASSETS
During fiscal 2007 the Company recognized a loss of $5,000 and in fiscal 2006 the company
recognized a gain of $715,000 and a loss totaling $574,000 in fiscal 2005. The 2007 amount
includes asset write offs offset by a sub-lease of a previously closed location. The 2006 amount
includes $694,000 of property damage insurance proceeds. These insurance proceeds relate to two
restaurants damaged from the Hurricane Ivan storm system and one fire-damaged restaurant. The 2005
amounts include impairment losses of $823,000 on nine restaurants to reduce their carrying values
to their estimated fair values. The impairment losses recognized in fiscal 2005 resulted from
managements determination that future operating cash flows would not fully recover the carrying
value of the restaurants property and equipment. The fiscal 2005 amounts also include gains
recognized totaling $167,000 for property damage insurance proceeds received in excess of the net
book value of the related property, and $178,000 for business interruption insurance proceeds
received. One restaurant was closed during fiscal 2006. Three restaurants were closed during
fiscal 2005. At February 25, 2007 and February 26, 2006 the accrual for closed restaurants
consisted of remaining exit costs for one restaurant and was almost entirely lease termination
costs. The closed restaurant did not have a material effect upon the Companys consolidated
results of operations or financial position.

NOTE 3. INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangibles
with indefinite lives are not subject to amortization, but are subject to assessment for impairment
whenever there is an indication of impairment or, at least annually as of the Companys year end by
applying a fair value based test. The Company has five reporting units for the purpose of
evaluating goodwill impairment which are based on the geographic market areas of its restaurants.
These five reporting units are Youngstown, OH, West Virginia, Pittsburgh, PA, St Louis, MO and
Erie, PA. The Company has performed the annual goodwill impairment tests during fiscal 2007, 2006
and 2005 and determined that the fair value of each reporting unit was greater than its carrying
value at each date.

The Companys intangible asset amortization expense relating to its franchise agreements was
$146,000, $145,000 and $208,000 for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The estimated
intangible amortization expense for each of the next five years is $145,000.
The increase in franchise agreements in fiscal 2007 resulted from $97,000 in new agreements paid on
several locations offset by the write off of a closed restaurant.

$4,262,000 in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
The Companys debt arrangements require the maintenance of a consolidated fixed charge coverage
ratio of 1.2 to 1 regarding all of the Companys mortgage loans and the maintenance of individual
restaurant fixed charge coverage ratios of between 1.2 and 1.5 to 1 on certain of the Companys
mortgage loans. Fixed charge coverage ratios are calculated by dividing the cash flow before rent
and debt service for the previous 12 months by the debt service and rent due in the coming 12
months. The consolidated and individual coverage ratios are computed quarterly. At the end of
fiscal 2007, the Company was in compliance with the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of
1.2. However, at the end of fiscal 2007 the Company was not in compliance with the individual
fixed charge coverage ratio on 25 of its restaurant properties and has obtained waivers of these
violations.

On January 11, 2007, the Company entered into a 20 year land and building lease with four renewal
options of five years each. The building portion of the lease was recorded as a capital lease with
a value of $119,000 (representing a non-cash financing and investing activity) and an interest rate
of 9.45%. On September 20, 2006, the Company entered into a 5 year equipment lease with purchase
option at the end of the lease. The lease was recorded as a capital lease with a value of $16,000
(representing a non-cash financing and investing activity) and an interest rate of 8.00%. On June
13, 2005, the Company sold one of its owned properties to an unrelated party for $985,000 and
leased the land and building back under a 20 year lease with two renewal options of five years
each. The Company received cash of $967,000 and recorded a deferred gain of $377,000 as a result
of the transaction.
Amortization of leased property under capital leases was $81,000, $60,000 and $57,000 in fiscal
2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

The Companys operating leases for restaurant land and buildings are noncancellable and expire on
various dates through 2027. The leases have renewal options ranging from 1 to 13 years. Certain
restaurant land and building leases require the payment of additional rent equal to an amount by
which a percentage of annual sales exceeds annual minimum rentals. Total contingent rentals were
$131,000, $105,000 and $71,000 in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Future noncancellable
minimum rental payments under operating leases at February 25, 2007 are as follows: 2008 -
$1,857,000; 2009 $1,776,000; 2010 $1,421,000; 2011 $1,218,000; 2012 $1,072,000 and an
aggregate $4,268,000 for the years thereafter. Rental expense for all operating leases was
$2,154,000, $2,134,000 and $2,129,000 for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and is included
in restaurant operating expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
For KFC products, the Company is required to pay royalties of 4% of gross revenues and to expend an
additional 5.5% of gross revenues on national and local advertising pursuant to its franchise
agreements. For Taco Bell products in KFC/Taco 2n1 restaurants operated under license agreements
from Taco Bell Corporation and franchise agreements from KFC Corporation, the Company is required
to pay royalties of 10% of Taco Bell gross revenues and to make advertising fund contributions of
1/2% of Taco Bell gross revenues. For Taco Bell product sales in restaurants operated under Taco
Bell franchises the Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of gross revenues and to expend an
additional 4.5% of gross revenues on national and local advertising. For Pizza Hut products in
Taco Bell/Pizza Hut Express 2n1 restaurants the Company is required to pay royalties of 5.5% of
Pizza Hut gross revenues and to expend an additional 4.5% of Pizza Hut gross revenues on national
and local advertising. For A&W products in 2n1 restaurants the Company is required to pay
royalties of 7% of A&W gross revenues and to expend an additional 4% of A&W gross revenues on
national and local advertising. Total royalties and advertising, which are included in the
consolidated statements of operations as part of restaurant operating expenses, were $9,005,000,
$8,591,000 and $8,033,000 in fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively

February 25, 2007, February 26, 2006 and February 27, 2005
In fiscal year 2000 the Company signed an agreement and prepaid franchise fees of $170,000 which
granted it the rights to develop 20 KFC, Taco Bell or KFC 2n1 restaurants in specific geographic
areas. Under the agreement five restaurants are required to be developed each year over a four
year period. As of February 25, 2007 the Company has developed only five restaurants under this
agreement. The status of the development agreements has been discussed with the franchisors and
the Company has not been declared in default of the KFC agreement. If the Company should be
declared in default on the KFC agreement, it could lose the rights to develop certain KFC
restaurants and could forfeit the remaining balance of prepaid franchise fees, which was $60,000 at
February 25, 2007. The Company believes that noncompliance with the KFC development agreement will
not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The franchise agreements with KFC and Taco Bell Corporation require the Company to upgrade and
remodel its restaurants to comply with the franchisors current standards within agreed upon
timeframes. If a property is of usable size and configuration, the Company can perform an image
enhancement to bring the building to the current image of the franchisor. If the property is too
small to fit a drive-thru or has some other deficiency, the Company would need to relocate the
restaurant to another location within the trade area to meet the franchisors requirements. In
order to meet the terms and conditions of the franchise agreements, the Company has the following

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to accomplish the development required in
the franchise and development agreements on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company is
unable to meet the requirements of a franchise agreement, the franchisor may choose to extend the
time allowed for compliance or may terminate the franchise agreement.
NOTE 7. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period which totaled 2,738,982, 2,718,495
and 2,718,495 for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Diluted net income (loss) per common
share is based on the combined weighted average number of shares and dilutive stock options
outstanding during the period which totaled 2,767,478, 2,778,524 and 2,718,495 for fiscal 2007,
2006 and 2005, respectively. For fiscal year 2005, 286,500 options were excluded from the
computation of diluted earnings per share due to their antidilutive effect. In computing diluted
net income (loss) per common share, the Company has utilized the treasury stock method.
NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES
The current tax provision consists of federal tax of $47,000 for fiscal 2007 and $69,000 for fiscal
2006 and state and local taxes for fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005 of $117,000, $12,000 and $7,000,
respectively. The deferred tax provision for fiscal 2007 and 2006 is a benefit of $(28,000) and
$(268,000) respectively and resulted from a change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax
assets offset by an increase in deferred tax liabilities associated with indefinite lived
intangible assets for book purposes. The deferred tax provision was $883,000 during fiscal 2005
and resulted from a change in the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and an increase in
deferred tax liabilities associated with indefinite lived intangible assets.
A reconciliation of the provision for income taxes and income taxes calculated at the statutory tax
rate of 34% (fiscal year 2007) and 35% (fiscal years 2006 and 2005) is as follows:

The valuation allowance decreased $1,451,000 and $1,515,000 during fiscal years 2007 and 2006
respectively, principally due to the utilization of operating loss carryforwards and from a change
in judgment regarding the realizability of deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance increased
$1,296,000 during fiscal year 2005 resulting from a judgment regarding the realizability of
deferred tax assets and from timing differences attributable to the depreciation of property and
accrued expenses. During fiscal year 2005 management concluded that realization of deferred tax
assets was no longer more likely than not due to continuing operating losses. Accordingly a
valuation allowance was recorded to reduce net deferred tax assets to zero.
At February 25, 2007, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards which, if not utilized, will
expire as follows:

The net operating loss carryforwards include $48,000 attributable to stock options exercised where
the tax benefit has not yet been realized. The tax benefit of $19,000 will be credited to equity if
realized. The Company also has alternative minimum tax net operating loss carryforwards of
$1,613,000 that will expire, if not utilized, in varying amounts through fiscal 2025. These
carryforwards are available to offset up to 90% of alternative minimum taxable income that would
otherwise be taxable. As of February 25, 2007, the Company has alternative minimum tax credit
carryforwards of $173,000.

NOTE 9. STOCK OPTIONS AND SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
On April 2, 1999, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a Stock Option Plan for Executives
and Managers. Under the plan 145,500 shares were reserved for the grant of options. The Stock
Option Plan for Executives and Managers provides for grants to eligible participants of
nonqualified stock options only. The exercise price for any option awarded under the Plan is
required to be not less than 100% of the fair market value of the shares on the date that the
option is granted. Options are granted by the Stock Option Committee of the Company. Options for
the 145,500 shares were granted to executives and managers of the Company on April 2, 1999 at an
exercise price of $4.125. The plan provides that the options are exercisable after a waiting
period of 6 months and that each option expires 10 years after its date of issue.
At the Companys annual meeting on June 25, 1999 the shareholders approved the Key Employees Stock
Option Plan. This plan allows the granting of options covering 291,000 shares of stock and has
essentially the same provisions as the Stock Option Plan for Executives and Managers which was
discussed above. Options for 129,850 shares were granted to executives and managers of the Company
on January 7, 2000 at an exercise price of $3.00. Options for 11,500 shares were granted to
executives on April 27, 2001 at an exercise price of $.85. As of February 25, 2007, options for
150,000 shares were available for grant.
Prior to February 27, 2006, the Company applied APB No. 25 and related interpretations in
accounting for its option grants for employees. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been
recognized for options granted as the options were granted at fair market value at the date of
grant. As all options issued and outstanding at February 25, 2007 and February 26, 2006 were fully
vested there is no unrecognized compensation cost. See Note 1. for discussion of the adoption of
SFAS 123R Share-Based Payment effective February 27, 2006.
No options were granted during fiscal years 2007, 2006 or 2005. During fiscal 2007 options
covering 162,500 shares were exercised at various prices. During fiscal years 2006 and 2005 there
were no changes in outstanding options. As of February 25, 2007, there were 124,000 options
outstanding and exercisable at a weighted average exercise price of $4.03 per share. At February
26, 2006 and February 27, 2005 there were 286,500 options outstanding and exercisable at a weighted
average exercise price of $3.48 per share.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
February 25, 2007, February 26, 2006 and February 27, 2005
On April 8, 1999, the Company adopted a Shareholder Rights Plan in which the Board of Directors
declared a distribution of one Right for each of the Companys outstanding Common Shares. Each
Right entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a Series A Preferred
Share (a Preferred Share) at a purchase price of $30.00 per Right, subject to adjustment. One
one-thousandth of a Preferred Share is intended to be approximately the economic equivalent of one
Common Share. The Rights will expire on April 7, 2009, unless redeemed by the Company as described
below.
The Rights are neither exercisable nor traded separately from the Common Shares. The Rights will
become exercisable and begin to trade separately from the Common Shares if a person or group,
unless approved in advance by the Company Board of Directors, becomes the beneficial owner of 21%
or more of the then-outstanding Common Shares or announces an offer to acquire 21% or more of the
then-outstanding Common Shares.
If a person or group acquires 21% or more of the outstanding Common Shares, then each Right not
owned by the acquiring person or its affiliates will entitle its holder to purchase, at the Rights
then-current exercise price, fractional Preferred Shares that are approximately the economic
equivalent of Common Shares (or, in certain circumstances, Common Shares, cash, property or other
securities of the Company) having a market value equal to twice the then-current exercise price.
In addition, if, after the Rights become exercisable, the Company is acquired in a merger or other
business combination transaction with an acquiring person or its affiliates or sells 50% or more of
its assets or earnings power to an acquiring person or its affiliates, each Right will entitle its
holder to purchase, at the Rights then-current exercise price, a number of shares of the acquiring
persons common stock having a market value of twice the Rights exercise price. The Board of
Directors may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of $.01 per Right, subject to
certain limitations.
NOTE 10. 401(k) RETIREMENT PLAN
The Company has a 401(k) Retirement Plan in which employees age 21 or older are eligible to
participate. The Company makes a 30% matching contribution on employee contributions of up to 6%
of their salary. During fiscal 2007, 2006 and 2005, the Company incurred $91,000, $79,000 and
$80,000, respectively, in expenses for matching contributions to the plan.
NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Companys debt is reported at historical cost, based upon stated interest rates which
represented market rates at the time of borrowing. Due to subsequent declines in credit quality
throughout the restaurant industry resulting from weak and volatile operating performance and
related declines in restaurant values, the market for fixed rate mortgage debt for restaurant
financing is currently extremely limited. The Companys debt is not publicly traded and there are
few lenders or financing transactions for similar debt in the marketplace at this time.
Consequently, management has not been able to identify a market for fixed rate restaurant mortgage
debt with a similar risk profile, and has concluded that it is not practicable to estimate the fair
value of the Companys debt as of February 25, 2007.

years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is determining the effect, if any, that the
adoption of FIN 48 will have on its financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines
fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157
apply under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS
No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The Company does not believe that adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have a
material impact on its financial position, results of operations or related disclosures.
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 108(SAB No. 108), Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when
Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements. SAB No. 108 expresses the SEC
staffs view regarding the process of quantifying and evaluating financial statement misstatements.
SAB No. 108 provides interpretive guidance on how to consider the effects of carryovers or
reversals of prior year misstatements in quantifying a current year misstatement. The SEC staff
believes that both the rollover (income statement) and iron curtain (balance sheet) approaches
should be used to provide a meaningful analysis of the materiality of uncorrected errors. SAB No.
108 is effective for annual financial statements covering the first fiscal year ending after
November 15, 2006. The Companys application of the guidance contained in SAB No. 108 in fiscal
2007 did not have a material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.
