1.   Basis of Presentation:

     The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Advance Holding Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the
"Company").  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.

     The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 15, 2000, the condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the twelve and twenty-eight week
periods ended July 15, 2000 and July 17, 1999 and the condensed consolidated
statements of cash flows for the twenty-eight week periods ended July 15, 2000
and July 17, 1999, have been prepared by the Company and have not been audited.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position of the Company, the results of its operations and cash flows have been
made.

     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted.  These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended
January 1, 2000.

     The results of operations for the twelve week and twenty-eight week periods
are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the
full fiscal year.

     Recent Accounting Pronouncements

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities."  This Statement establishes
accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain
derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives) and for hedging activities.  It requires companies to recognize all
derivatives as either assets or liabilities in their statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value.  In September 1999, the
FASB issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities - Deferral of the Effective Date of SFAS No. 133," which delayed the
effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.
The Company has not yet determined the impact SFAS No. 133 will have on its
financial position or the results of its operations.

     Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

     Reclassifications

     Certain 1999 amounts have been reclassified to conform with their 2000
presentation.

3.   Inventories:

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market using the last-in,
first-out (LIFO) method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method
can be made only at the end of each fiscal year based on the inventory levels
and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on
management's estimates of expected fiscal year-end inventory levels and costs.
The Company capitalizes certain purchasing and warehousing costs into inventory.
Purchasing and warehousing costs included in inventory at July 15, 2000 and
January 1, 2000, were $51,526 and $49,252, respectively. Inventories consist of
the following:

4.   Restructuring Liabilities:

     In November 1998, the Company consummated a plan of merger (the "Western
Merger") with Sears, Roebuck and Co. ("Sears") to acquire Western Auto Supply
Company ("Western").  The Company's restructuring activities relate to the
settlement of restructuring activities undertaken as a result of the Western
Merger and the ongoing analysis of the profitability of store locations.
Expenses associated with restructuring are included in selling, general and
administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of
operations. During the first and second quarters of fiscal 2000, the Company
closed four stores included in the fiscal 1999 restructuring activities and made
the decision to close or relocate 13 additional stores not meeting profitability
objectives, of which all have been closed as of July 15, 2000.

     The Company assumed the restructuring accrual related to Western's
restructuring activities prior to the Western Merger.  As of July 15, 2000, this
restructuring accrual relates primarily to ongoing lease obligations on

                                       5

closed facilities and estimated severance payments. The Company actively pursues
subleasing these closed stores, including certain service bays in stores
obtained through the Western Merger that currently do not produce revenue.

     A reconciliation of activity with respect to these restructuring accruals
is as follows:

</TABLE>

     The above liabilities related to severance costs will be settled during
fiscal 2000.  Other exit cost liabilities will be settled over the remaining
terms of the underlying lease agreements.

     Additionally, as a result of the Western Merger, the Company established
restructuring reserves in connection with the decision to close certain Parts
America stores, to relocate certain Western administrative functions, to exit
certain facility leases and to terminate certain employees of Western.  As of
July 15, 2000, all employees have been terminated and all leased stores have
been closed.

5.   Contingencies:

     In March 2000, the Company was notified that it was named in a lawsuit
filed on behalf of independent retailers and jobbers against the Company and
others for various claims under the Robinson-Patman Act. The litigation is in
preliminary stages. The Company believes these claims are without merit and
intends to defend them vigorously; however, the ultimate outcome of this matter
cannot be ascertained at this time.

     The Company is also involved in various other claims, lawsuits and
environmental issues arising in the normal course of business.  The damages
claimed against the Company in some of these proceedings are substantial.
Although the final outcome of these legal matters cannot be determined, based on
the facts presently known, it is management's opinion that the final outcome of
such claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's financial position or future results of operations.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Advance Holding Corporation ("Holding") conducts all of its operations
through its wholly owned subsidiary, Advance Stores Company, Incorporated and
its subsidiaries (the "Company"). The Company was formed in 1929.  In the 1980s,
the Company sharpened its marketing focus to target sales of automotive parts
and accessories to "do-it-yourself" ("DIY") customers and accelerated its growth
strategy.  From the 1980s through the present, the Company has grown
significantly through new store openings, strategic acquisitions and a merger
with Western Auto Supply Company (the "Western Merger").  Additionally, in 1996,
the Company began to aggressively expand its sales to "do-it-for-me" ("DIFM")
customers by implementing a commercial delivery program that supplies parts and
accessories to third party automotive service and repair providers.

     As of July 15, 2000, the Company had 1,674 stores in 37 states, Puerto Rico
and the Virgin Islands operating under the "Advance Auto Parts" and "Western
Auto" trade names (the "Retail" segment).  Advance Auto Parts is the second
largest retailer of automotive parts and accessories in the United States and,
based on store count, the Company believes it is the largest retailer in a
majority of its markets.  The Western Auto stores (the "Service Stores")
included in the Retail segment offer home and garden merchandise in addition to
automotive parts, accessories and service.  The Company also operates a
wholesale distribution network which includes distribution services of
automotive parts and accessories and home and garden merchandise to
approximately 620 independently owned dealer stores and three franchisees in 48
states and one Company-owned retail store in California all operating under the
"Western Auto" trade name (the "Wholesale" segment).

     During the first quarter of fiscal 2000, the Company announced and
finalized a plan to partner with CSK Auto, Inc. ("CSK") and Sequoia Capital to
form PartsAmerica.com, Inc. ("PartsAmerica.com").  PartsAmerica.com is an e-
commerce destination in the automotive aftermarket that operates independently
from its partners and will utilize the Company's and CSK's existing logistic
systems to support its web-based operations. The Company contributed the use of
the "Parts America" domain name to PartsAmerica.com under a royalty free license
agreement and the use of certain other assets. The Company is also party to a
service agreement with PartsAmerica.com that defines the wholesale sale of
merchandise to PartsAmerica.com and certain other services to be provided by the
Company.  The Company expects to begin selling products to PartsAmerica.com
during the third quarter of fiscal 2000.

     The following discussion of the consolidated historical results of
operations and financial condition of Holding should be read in conjunction with
the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Holding and the
notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  Holding's first quarter
consists of 16 weeks and its other three quarters consist of 12 weeks.

     Net sales consist primarily of comparable store net sales, new store net
sales, Service Store net sales and net sales to the wholesale dealer network.
Comparable store net sales is calculated based on the change in net sales
starting once a store has been opened for thirteen complete accounting periods
(each period represents four weeks).  Relocations are included in comparable
store net sales from the original date of opening.  Additionally, each converted
Parts America store is included in the comparable store net sales calculation
after thirteen complete accounting periods following its conversion to an
Advance Auto Parts store.  Holding has historically not included the Service
Stores in the comparable store net sales calculation.

     Holding's cost of sales includes merchandise costs and warehouse and
distribution expenses as well as service labor costs for the Service Stores and
the one Company-owned retail store in California. Gross profit as a percentage
of net sales may be affected by variations in Holding's product mix, price
changes in response to competitive factors and fluctuations in merchandise costs
and vendor programs.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses are comprised of store
payroll, store occupancy, net

                                       11
<PAGE>

advertising expenses, depreciation and amortization, other store expenses and
general and administrative expenses, including salaries and related benefits of
corporate employees, administrative office expenses, data processing,
professional expenses and other related expenses.

Twelve Weeks Ended July 15, 2000 Compared to Twelve Weeks Ended July 17, 1999

     Net sales for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000 were $557.7 million, an
increase of $15.3 million or 2.8% over net sales for the twelve weeks ended July
17, 1999.  Net sales for the Retail segment increased $32.6 million or 6.6%.
The net sales increase for the Retail segment was due to an increase in the
comparable store sales of 3.0%, contributions from new stores opened within the
last year and increased net sales from converted Parts America stores not
included in the comparable store sales calculation.  The comparable sales
increase of 3.0% was primarily a result of growth in both the DIY and DIFM
customer base, as well as the continued maturation of new stores and the
converted Parts America stores included in the comparable store sales
calculation.  Comparable store sales increased 10.3% for the twelve weeks ended
July 17, 1999 as compared to the comparable period of fiscal 1998.  Net sales
for the Wholesale segment decreased $17.3 million or 34.8%, reflecting the
continued decline of this segment due to increased competition coupled with a
decline in the independently owned dealer stores.

     During the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000, the Company opened 29 new
stores, relocated four stores and closed two stores, bringing the total retail
stores to 1,674.  The Company has 1,216 stores participating in its commercial
delivery program, as a result of adding three stores during the second quarter
of fiscal 2000.

     Gross profit for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000 was $216.5 million or
38.8% of net sales, as compared to $196.5 million or 36.2% of net sales in the
twelve weeks ended July 17, 1999.  The increase in the gross profit percentage
is reflective of the realization of certain purchasing synergies, fewer product
liquidations, lower inventory shrinkage and freight costs and a decline in the
net sales of the lower margin Wholesale segment.  The higher shrinkage and
freight costs in fiscal year 1999 were related to merchandise conversions and
product liquidations resulting from the Western Merger.  The gross profit for
the Retail segment was $211.2 million or 40.2% of net sales for the twelve week
period ended July 15, 2000, as compared to $186.6 million or 37.9% of net sales
for the twelve week period ended July 17, 1999.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, before integration expenses
and non-cash compensation, increased to $184.0 million or 33.0% of net sales for
the twelve week period ended July 15, 2000, from $173.7 million or 32.0% of net
sales for the twelve week period ended July 17, 1999.  The increase in selling,
general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to the continued
sales decline in the Wholesale segment, which carries lower selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of sales as compared to the Retail
segment.  Additionally, the Company has incurred higher than expected medical
claims as well as higher payroll, insurance and occupancy costs, offset by a
decrease in professional fees, as a percentage of sales, as compared to the
twelve week period ended July 17, 1999.

     Operating income, as adjusted for expenses associated with integration
expenses and non-cash compensation, in the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000 was
$32.5 million or 5.8% of net sales, as compared to $22.8 million or 4.2% of net
sales in the twelve weeks ended July 17, 1999.  The Retail segment contributed
$31.1 million to operating income, while the Wholesale segment contributed $1.4
million to operating income.

     EBITDA (operating income plus depreciation and amortization), as adjusted
for integration expenses and non-cash compensation, was $47.7 million in the
twelve week period ended July 15, 2000 or 8.5% of net sales, as compared to
$35.0 million or 6.4% of net sales in the twelve week period ended July 17,
1999.  EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as defined
by GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income as an
indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow (as
measured by GAAP) as a measure of liquidity.  Holding's method for calculating
EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Management believes certain one-time expenses, expenses associated with merger
integration and non-cash compensation should be eliminated from the EBITDA
calculation to evaluate the operating performance of the Company.

     Interest expense for the twelve week period ended July 15, 2000 was $15.8
million or 2.8% of net sales, as compared to $14.7 million or 2.7% of net sales
for the twelve week period ended July 17, 1999. Interest expense

                                       12
<PAGE>

increased as a result of higher interest rates, offset by a reduction in average
borrowings during the twelve week period ended July 15, 2000.

     Income tax expense for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000 was $6.3
million compared to a benefit of $2.5 million in the twelve weeks ended July 17,
1999.  This increase was primarily due to having positive income before taxes
for the twelve weeks ended July 15, 2000.

     As a result of the above factors, Holding recorded net income of $10.4
million for the twelve week period ended July 15, 2000, as compared to a net
income of  $2.1 million for the twelve week period ended July 17, 1999.  As a
percentage of sales, net income for the twelve week period ended July 15, 2000
was 2.0% as compared to net income of 0.4% for the twelve week period ended July
17, 1999.

Twenty-Eight Weeks Ended July 15, 2000 Compared to Twenty-Eight Weeks Ended July
17, 1999

     Net sales for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2000 were $1,235.2
million, an increase of $22.5 million or 1.9% over net sales for the twenty-
eight weeks ended July 17, 1999.  Net sales for the Retail segment increased
$70.2 million or 6.5%.  The net sales increase for the Retail segment was due to
an increase in the comparable store sales of 3.7%, contributions from new stores
opened within the last year and increased net sales from converted Parts America
stores not included in the comparable store sales calculation.  The comparable
sales increase of 3.7% was primarily a result of growth in both the DIY and DIFM
customer base, as well as the continued maturation of new stores and the
converted Parts America stores included in the comparable store sales
calculation.  Comparable store sales increased 12.7% for the twenty-eight weeks
ended July 17, 1999 as compared to the comparable quarter of fiscal 1998.  Net
sales for the Wholesale segment decreased $47.7 million or 36.0%, reflecting the
continued decline of this segment due to increased competition coupled with a
decline in the independently owned dealer stores.

     During the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2000, the Company opened 74
new stores, relocated six stores and closed 16 stores, bringing the total retail
stores to 1,674.  The Company has 1,216 stores participating in its commercial
delivery program, as a result of adding 122 stores during fiscal 2000.

     Gross profit for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2000 was $475.5
million or 38.5% of net sales, as compared to $422.9 million or 34.9% of net
sales in the twenty-eight weeks ended July 17, 1999.  The increase in the gross
profit percentage is reflective of the realization of certain purchasing
synergies, fewer product liquidations, lower inventory shrinkage and freight
costs and a decline in the net sales of the lower margin Wholesale segment. The
higher shrinkage and freight costs in fiscal year 1999 were related to
merchandise conversions and product liquidations resulting from the Western
Merger. The gross profit for the Retail segment was $463.6 million or 40.3% of
net sales for the twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000, as compared to
$403.9 million or 37.4% of net sales for the twenty-eight week period ended July
17, 1999.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses, before integration expenses
and non-cash compensation, increased to $423.5 million or 34.3% of net sales for
the twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000, from $399.6 million or 33.0%
of net sales for the twenty-eight week period ended July 17, 1999.  The increase
in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to the
continued sales decline in the Wholesale segment, which carries lower selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales as compared to the
Retail segment.  Additionally, the Company has incurred higher than expected
medical claims as well as higher payroll costs, closed store expense, insurance
costs and occupancy costs as a percentage of sales.

     Operating income, as adjusted for expenses associated with integration
expenses and non-cash compensation, in the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15,
2000 was $52.0 million or 4.2% of net sales, as compared to $23.3 million or
1.9% of net sales in the twenty-eight weeks ended July 17, 1999.  The Retail
segment contributed $50.7 million to operating income, while the Wholesale
segment contributed $1.3 million to operating income for the twenty-eight weeks
ended July 15, 2000.

     EBITDA (operating income plus depreciation and amortization), as adjusted
for integration expenses and non-cash compensation, was $86.4 million in the
twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000 or 7.0% of net sales, as compared
to $52.6 million or 4.3% of net sales in the twenty-eight week period ended July
17, 1999.  EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flow from operations as
defined by GAAP and should not be considered

                                       13
<PAGE>

as a substitute for net income as an indicator of operating performance or as an
alternative to cash flow (as measured by GAAP) as a measure of liquidity.
Holding's method for calculating EBITDA may differ from similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Management believes certain one-time
expenses, expenses associated with merger integration and non-cash compensation
should be eliminated from the EBITDA calculation to evaluate the operating
performance of the Company.

     Interest expense for the twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000 was
$36.6 million or 3.0% of net sales, as compared to $33.2 million or 2.7% of net
sales for the twenty-eight week period ended July 17, 1999.  The increase in
interest expense is a result of an increase in interest rates over the similar
period of fiscal year 1999 offset by a decrease in net outstanding borrowings.

     Income tax expense for the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2000 was $5.9
million compared to a benefit of $12.9 million in the twenty-eight weeks ended
July 17, 1999.  This increase was primarily due to having income before taxes
for the twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000 as compared to a net loss
for the twenty-eight week period ended July 17, 1999.

     As a result of the above factors, Holding recorded net income of $9.4
million for the twenty-eight week period ended July 15, 2000, as compared to a
net loss of  $22.9 million for the twenty-eight week period ended July 17, 1999.
As a percentage of sales, net income for the twenty-eight week period ended July
15, 2000 was 0.7% as compared to a net loss of 1.9% for the twenty-eight week
period ended July 17, 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As a holding company, Holding relies on dividends from the Company as its
primary source of liquidity.  Holding does not have and in the future may not
have any assets other than the capital stock of the Company.  The ability of the
Company to pay cash dividends to Holding when required is restricted by law and
the terms of the Company's debt instruments, including the Credit Facility and
the Senior Subordinated Notes (see below).  No assurance can be made that the
Company will be able to pay cash dividends to Holding when required to redeem
the Debentures (see below).

     Holding's primary capital requirements have been the funding of its
continued store expansion program, store relocations and remodels, inventory
requirements, the construction and upgrading of distribution centers and the
development and implementation of proprietary information systems.  Holding has
financed its growth through a combination of internally generated funds,
borrowings under the Credit Facility and issuances of equity.

     During fiscal 2000, the Company expects to open 150 new stores, of which 74
have been opened as of July 15, 2000.  The average new store opening requires
capital expenditures of approximately $120,000 per store and an inventory
investment of approximately $350,000 per store, a portion of which is held at a
distribution facility.  A substantial portion of these inventories is financed
through vendor payables.  Pre-opening expenses, consisting primarily of store
set-up costs and training of new store employees, average approximately $25,000
per store and are expensed when incurred.

     Historically, the Company has negotiated extended payment terms from
suppliers to help finance inventory growth, and the Company believes that it
will be able to continue financing much of its inventory growth through such
extended payment terms. The Company anticipates that inventory levels will
continue to increase primarily as a result of new store openings and increased
SKU levels.

     The Company continually monitors store performance, which results in
closing certain store locations not meeting profitability objectives.  During
the first and second quarters of fiscal 2000, the Company closed four stores
included in the fiscal 1999 restructuring activities and made the decision to
close or relocate 13 additional stores not meeting profitability objectives, all
of which were closed as of July 15, 2000.

     As a result of the Western Merger, the Company decided to close certain
Advance Auto Parts stores due to store performance or because such stores were
in overlapping markets with Parts America stores.  As part of normal operations,
the Company will continue to review store performance and close additional
stores not meeting profitability objectives. The Western Merger also resulted in
restructuring reserves recorded in purchase accounting for the closure of
certain Parts America stores, severance and relocation costs and other facility
exit costs.  As of

                                       14
<PAGE>

July 15, 2000, these reserves had a remaining balance of $12.3 million. The
Company also assumed certain restructuring and deferred compensation liabilities
previously recorded by Western Auto Supply Company. At July 15, 2000, the
remaining assumed liability for the restructuring and deferred compensation
plans was $3.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of which $1.7 million and
$1.4 million, respectively, is recorded as a current liability. The
classification for deferred compensation is determined by employee election, and
can be changed upon 12 months' notice.

     For the twenty-eight weeks ended July 15, 2000, net cash provided by
operating activities was $53.3 million.  Of this amount, $9.4 million was
provided by net income.  Depreciation and amortization provided an additional
$34.4 million, amortization of deferred debt issuance costs and bond discount
provided $6.9 million and $2.6 million was provided as a result of a net
increase in working capital and other, primarily attributable to the Company's
successful efforts in negotiating extended payment terms from its vendors.  Net
cash used for investing activities was $25.5 million and was comprised primarily
of net capital expenditures.  Net cash used in financing activities was $33.8
million and was comprised primarily of a decrease in net borrowings.

     Holding believes it will have sufficient liquidity to fund its debt service
obligations and implement its growth strategy over the next twelve months.  As
of July 15, 2000, Holding and the Company had reduced their outstanding
indebtedness by $36.8 million since January 1, 2000 to $598.0 million consisting
of $79.5 million of Senior Discount Debentures (the "Debentures"), $200.0
million of Senior Subordinated Notes (the "Senior Subordinated Notes"),
borrowings of $308.5 million under the bank credit facility (the "Credit
Facility") and $10.0 million of indebtedness under the McDuffie County
Development Authority Taxable Industrial Bonds ("IRB").

     The Debentures accrete at a rate of 12.875%, compounded semiannually, to an
aggregate principal amount of $112.0 million by April 15, 2003.  Commencing
April 15, 2003, cash interest on the Debentures will accrue and be payable
semiannually at a rate of 12.875% per annum.  The indenture governing the
Debentures contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the
ability of Holding and its restricted subsidiaries to incur indebtedness and
issue preferred stock, repurchase stock and certain indebtedness, engage in
transactions with affiliates, create or incur certain liens, pay dividends or
certain other distributions, make certain investments, enter into new
businesses, sell stock of restricted subsidiaries, sell assets and engage in
certain mergers and consolidations.

     The Senior Subordinated Notes bear interest at a rate of 10.25%, payable
semiannually, and require no principal payments until maturity in April 2008.
The indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes contains certain covenants
that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its restricted
subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, pay
dividends or certain other distributions, issue stock of subsidiaries, make
certain investments, repurchase stock and certain indebtedness, create or incur
liens, engage in transactions with affiliates, enter into new businesses, sell
stock of restricted subsidiaries and restrict the Company from engaging in
certain mergers or consolidations and sell assets.  The $10.0 million principal
amount IRB bears interest at a variable rate and will require no principal
payments until maturity in November 2002.

     The Company has access to a total of $463.5 million through the Credit
Facility in addition to its operating cash flow.  The Credit Facility provides
for (i) a $124.0 million Tranche B term loan, which was made at the closing of
the recapitalization; (ii) a revolver with maximum borrowings including letters
of credit of approximately $125.0 million, of which $12.1 million was
outstanding for letters of credit, at July 15, 2000, (iii) a $124.5 million
delayed draw term loan of which $94.5 million was borrowed at July 15, 2000 and
(iv) a $90.0 million deferred term loan facility which was drawn at the closing
of the Western Merger.  The term loan facilities, other than the Tranche B term
loan, will mature on the sixth anniversary of initial borrowing, and the Tranche
B term loan will mature on the eighth anniversary of initial borrowing.  Annual
principal payments on the term loan facilities prior to the sixth anniversary of
initial borrowing will be nominal; thereafter, required principal payments will
be approximately $236.5 million in 2004, $60.0 million in 2005 and $30.0 million
in 2006, assuming the term loan facilities have been fully borrowed.  The
revolving loan facility will mature on the sixth anniversary of initial
borrowing. The interest rates under the delayed draw facilities and the revolver
are determined by reference to a pricing grid that will provide for reductions
in the applicable interest rate margins based on the Company's trailing total
debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility).  Based upon the
Company's operating ratios at July 15, 2000, the margins were 1.75% and 0.75%
for Eurodollar and base rate borrowings, respectively.  Additionally, at July
15, 2000, the margin under the Tranche B term loan and the deferred term loan
facility was 2.50% on a Eurodollar rate and 1.50% on the base rate borrowings.

                                       15
<PAGE>

     Borrowings under the Credit Facility are required to be prepaid, subject to
certain exceptions, with (a) 50% of defined excess cash flow, (b) 100% of the
net cash proceeds of all asset sales or other dispositions of property by the
Company and its subsidiaries (including certain insurance and condemnation
proceeds), subject to certain exceptions (including exceptions for (i)
reinvestment of certain asset sale proceeds within 360 days of such sale and
(ii) certain sale-leaseback transactions), (c) 100% of the net proceeds of
issuances of debt obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries and (d) 100%
of the net proceeds of issuance of equity of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Because increases in net working capital, capital expenditures and debt
repayments are deducted in calculating excess cash flow, the Company does not
anticipate that the prepayment obligation under the Credit Facility in respect
thereof will have a material effect on its operating strategy.  With respect to
growth through acquisitions, the operation of this covenant may result in the
application of cash resources for prepayments which would require the Company to
secure additional equity or debt financing to fund an acquisition, but while no
assurance can be given, the Company does not anticipate that this would have a
material effect on its ability to finance acquisitions in the future.  The
Company did not make any mandatory prepayments in fiscal 1999, and does not
anticipate any mandatory prepayments under this provision in fiscal 2000.

     The loans under the Credit Facility are secured by a first priority
security interest in all tangible and intangible assets of the Company. Amounts
available to the Company under the revolver and delayed draw term loans are
subject to a borrowing base formula, which is based on certain percentages of
the Company's inventories.  As of July 15, 2000, $123.9 million was available
under these facilities.  The Company intends to use borrowings under the
revolver and delayed draw term loans, as well as internally generated funds, for
store expansion and funding of working capital.

     The Credit Facility contains covenants restricting the ability of the
Company and its subsidiaries to, among others things, (i) pay dividends on any
class of capital stock or make any payment to purchase, redeem, retire, acquire,
cancel or terminate capital stock, (ii) prepay, redeem, retire, acquire, cancel
or terminate debt, (iii) incur liens or engage in sale-leaseback transactions,
(iv) make loans, investments, advances or guarantees, (v) incur additional debt
(including hedging arrangements), (vi) make capital expenditures, (vii) engage
in mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, (viii) engage in transactions with
affiliates, (ix) enter into any agreement which restricts the ability to create
liens on property or assets or the ability of subsidiaries to pay dividends or
make payments on advances or loans to the Company or other subsidiaries, (x)
change the nature of the business conducted by the Company and its subsidiaries,
(xi) change the passive holding company status of Holding and (xii) amend
existing debt agreements or the Company's or Holding's certificate of
incorporation, by-laws or other organizational documents.  The Company is also
required to comply with financial covenants in the Credit Facility with respect
to (a) limits on annual aggregate capital expenditures, (b) a maximum leverage
ratio, (c) a minimum interest coverage ratio and (d) a minimum retained cash
earnings test.  The Company is generally prohibited from paying dividends
(including to Holding) except that as long as no defined event of default under
the Credit Facility then exists, the Company will be permitted to pay dividends
to Holding in an amount sufficient to cover the cash interest due on the Senior
Discount Debentures (the "Debentures") commencing October 15, 2003.  The Company
believes it is in compliance with the above covenants under the Credit Facility
as of July 15, 2000.

Seasonality

     The Company's business is somewhat seasonal in nature, with the highest
sales occurring in the spring and summer months.  In addition, the Company's
business is affected by weather conditions.  While unusually heavy precipitation
tends to soften sales as elective maintenance is deferred during such periods,
extremely hot and cold weather tends to enhance sales by causing parts to fail.

ITEM 3.      QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISKS

     Holding currently utilizes no material derivative financial instruments
that expose it to significant market risk.  Holding is exposed to cash flow and
fair value risk due to changes in interest rates with respect to its long-term
debt.  While Holding cannot predict the impact that interest rate movements will
have on its debt, exposure to rate changes is managed through the use of fixed
and variable rate debt.  Holding's exposure to interest rate risk increased
during the first quarter of fiscal 2000 due to increases in these rates.

     Holding's fixed rate debt consists primarily of outstanding balances on the
Debentures and Senior Subordinated Notes.  Holding's variable rate debt relates
to borrowings under the Credit Facility and the IRB. Holding's variable rate
debt is primarily vulnerable to movements in the LIBOR, Prime, Federal Funds and
Base CD rates.

     The table below presents principal cash flows and related weighted average
interest rates on Holding's long-term debt at July 15, 2000 by expected maturity
dates.  Expected maturity dates approximate contract terms.  Fair values
included herein have been determined based on quoted market prices.  Weighted
average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the yield curve at
July 15, 2000.  Implied forward rates should not be considered a predictor of
actual future interest rates.

                          PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     In March 2000, the Company was notified that it was named in a lawsuit
filed on behalf of independent retailers and jobbers against the Company and
others for various claims under the Robinson-Patman Act.  The litigation is in
preliminary stages.  The Company believes these claims are without merit and
intends to defend them vigorously; however, the ultimate outcome of this matter
can not be ascertained at this time.

ITEM 2.     CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

     On June 19, 2000, Holding issued and sold 13,500 shares of its Class A
common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Shares"), at a price per share of
$16.82 or an aggregate purchase price of $227,070 to certain employees of the
Company (the "Purchasers").  Holding offered and sold the Shares pursuant to the
Advance Holding Corporation 1998 Employee Stock Subscription Plan, as amended
(the "Plan"), which Holding filed as an exhibit to its Registration Statement on
Form S-4, effective October 30, 1998 (Registration No. 333-56013).  As
consideration for the Shares, Holding received $158,305 in cash, and $68,765 in
the form of secured promissory notes, the payment of which are secured by
individual stock pledge agreements with the Purchasers.

     The issuances of the Shares were exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Rule 701 which exempts
certain offers and sales of securities pursuant to certain compensatory benefit
plans.  The Plan is a compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701
and the aggregate amount of securities sold by Holding in reliance on Rule 701
during the applicable period has not exceeded 15% of the outstanding amount of
Class A common stock.
