                                   (UNAUDITED)


1.       NATURE OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATIONAL MATTERS

         Overhill Farms, Inc. (the Company or Overhill Farms) is a value-added
manufacturer of quality frozen food products including entrees, plated meals,
meal components, soups, sauces, and poultry, meat and fish specialties. From May
5, 1995 through October 29, 2002, the Company was a majority-owned subsidiary of
TreeCon Resources, Inc., formerly Overhill Corporation and Polyphase Corporation
(the former parent), whose ownership was subject to warrants outstanding to
purchase Overhill Farms' common stock. On October 29, 2002, TreeCon Resources,
Inc. distributed to its shareholders, in the form of a tax-free dividend, all of
its ownership of the Company.

         In October 2002, in connection with the spin-off transaction, the
Company's board of directors authorized a 12,010-shares-for-1 stock split. Share
and per share data as of and for all periods presented herein have been restated
to reflect the stock split.

2.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the
current period presentation. The accompanying unaudited condensed financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months
ended January 1, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending October 1, 2006 or for any other period.

         The condensed balance sheet at October 2, 2005 has been derived from
the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the
information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles for complete financial statements.

         For further information, refer to the financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
year ended October 2, 2005.

3.       RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

         In May 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 154, "Accounting
Changes and Error Corrections," which, under most circumstances, requires
retrospective application of a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 also
requires the restatement of previously issued financial statements when
reporting the correction of an error. SFAS No. 154 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2005. The adoption has not had a material impact on
the Company's financial statements.

         In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004)
("SFAS No. 123R"), Share-Based Payment. SFAS No. 123R will require the Company
to measure the cost of all employee stock-based compensation awards based on the
grant date fair value of those awards and to record that cost as compensation
expense over the period during which the employee is required to perform service
in exchange for the award (generally over the vesting period of the award).
Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R will have an impact on the Company's
results of operations, although it will have no impact on its overall financial
position. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R in the fiscal quarter ended January
1, 2006. There was no immediate impact from the adoption since no unvested stock
options existed during the quarter.

2.       SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

         In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 109-1,
"Application of FASB Statement No. 109 (SFAS 109), Accounting for Income Taxes,
to the Tax Deduction on Qualified Production Activities Provided by the American
Jobs Creation Act of 2004" ("FSP 109-1"). FSP 109-1 clarifies that the
manufacturer's deduction provided for under the American Jobs Creation Act of
2004 (the "Act") should be accounted for as a special deduction in accordance
with SFAS No. 109 and not as a tax rate reduction. The Company adopted FSP 109-1
in fiscal year 2006 and will pursue all available manufacturer's deductions.

         In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs, an
amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4." SFAS No. 151 clarifies that abnormal
inventory costs such as costs of idle facilities, excess freight and handling
costs and wasted materials (spoilage) are required to be recognized as current
period charges. The Company adopted SFAS No. 151 in the fiscal quarter ended
January 1, 2006, with no material impact.

         USE OF ESTIMATES

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4.       INVENTORIES

         Inventories are summarized as follows:

                                              January 1,      October 2,
                                                 2006            2005
                                             -----------     -----------
         Raw ingredients                     $ 3,955,723     $ 3,125,427
         Finished product                      5,273,574       5,262,877
         Packaging                             1,255,580       1,045,274
                                             -----------     -----------
                                             $10,484,877     $ 9,433,578
                                             ===========     ===========

         During the quarter ended January 2, 2005, the Company revised its
method to apply reserve estimation percentages to aging categories. The effect
of this change in estimate resulted in lowered net income of approximately
$370,000 and $0.02 per diluted share for the year ended October 2, 2005.

5.       DEBT

         As of January 1, 2006, the Company's indebtedness to significant
lenders consisted substantially of debt evidenced by a secured senior
subordinated note payable to Levine Leichtman Capital Partners II, L.P. ("LLCP")
with a principal balance of $28.9 million and a senior Term A note payable to
Pleasant Street Investors, LLC ("PSI"), with a principal balance of $15.9
million. Both notes have a maturity date of October 31, 2006 and are therefore
classified as current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet as of
January 1, 2006. The senior subordinated note has a base rate of interest of
13.5%, subject to increase upon the occurrence of an interest rate event, as
defined, or event of default. The interest rate on the Term A Loan, as amended,
is the greater of 5.5% or the prime rate in effect from time to time plus 1.5%
and is subject to increase upon the occurrence of any interest rate event, as
defined, or event of default as provided in the note that evidences the loan.
The Company had a senior Term B Loan payable to PSI in the principal amount of
$5.0 million with an interest of LIBOR plus 7.5%, which was paid off as of June
30, 2005, in advance of the January 31, 2006 maturity date.

         From time to time, the Company has obtained amendments to the
agreements that enabled it to remain in compliance with financial and/or
non-financial covenants. On September 7, 2005, the Company executed the fifth
amendment to the existing financing arrangements with PSI and LLCP to amend the
financial covenants and various other provisions. In the September 7, 2005
amendments, the Company agreed to make five scheduled installment principal
payments totaling $1.6 million on the Term A Loan commencing on the effective
date of the amendment through December 30, 2005. The amendments also amended
certain definitions of the financial covenants of the secured senior
subordinated note.

         The amended and restated securities purchase agreement with LLCP and
the amended and restated loan and security agreement with PSI, which have been
amended from time to time, contain various covenants, including financial
covenants covering restrictions on capital expenditures, minimum EBITDA and net


                                     - 9 -

worth levels, and specified debt service and debt to equity ratios. In addition,
those agreements prohibit changes in control, including ownership and certain
management personnel, and contain customary restrictions on incurring
indebtedness and liens, making investments, paying dividends and making loans or
advances. The obligations owing by the Company to PSI and LLCP are secured by
liens on substantially all of its assets.

         The Company believes that it is probable that it will be in compliance
with all of its revised financial and other covenant requirements for the
foreseeable future. In the future, the Company's failure to achieve certain
revenue, expense and profitability levels could result in a violation of the
amended financial covenants under its financing arrangements and could result in
interest rate increases and acceleration of maturity of the loans, which could
adversely affect its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

         The Company has engaged in discussions with several potential sources
of debt financing. The Company has signed a term letter with a potential new
lender, but has not yet entered into any definitive refinancing arrangements.
Any inability by the Company to refinance its existing debt prior to its
maturity or on more favorable terms could adversely affect the Company's
financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

         On December 23, 2005, LLCP resold to 15 institutional investors in a
private transaction all of the 5,771,661 shares of the Company's common stock
that LLCP owned of record as of that date ("Transferred Shares"). LLCP retained
Roth Capital Partners, LLC to act as placement agent in connection with this
private sale. The Transferred Shares represented approximately 38% of the shares
of outstanding common stock of the Company as of that date. As a result of this
transaction, three of the institutional investors who purchased these shares
from LLCP and the investment adviser to one of those institutions each became a
beneficial owner of more than 5% of the Company's outstanding shares. The
Transferred Shares included 198 shares of the Company's common stock LLCP
received upon cashless exercise in full of the two warrants LLCP held to
purchase an aggregate of 200 shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise
price of $0.0000008 per share, for a rounded aggregate exercise price of $0.01,
as well as the 283,076 shares of the Company's common stock LLCP received upon
surrender and conversion in full of the 23.57 shares of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock it then held.

         To facilitate LLCP's sale of the Transferred Shares, the Company made
various representations and warranties as a party to a stock purchase agreement
with LLCP and the investors. In addition, the Company entered into a
registration rights agreement with the investors that requires the Company to
register for resale the Transferred Shares. The registration rights agreement
contains cross-indemnification provisions between the Company and the investors
and requires, among other things, that the Company file a registration statement
with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") no later than the 45th day
following the closing date and cause the registration statement to be declared
effective no later than the 120th day following the closing date and remain
effective for a maximum of 24 months following the closing date. If the Company
is unable to meet its obligations under the registration rights agreement, then
the Company will be required to pay to each investor liquidated damages equal to
1% of the amount paid by the investor for the Transferred Shares still owned by
the investor on the date of the default and 1% of the amount paid by the
investor for the Transferred Shares still owned by the investor on each monthly
anniversary of the date of the default that occurs prior to the cure of the
default.

         LLCP has agreed via a separate letter agreement to reimburse the
Company under certain circumstances for 50% of the liquidated damages, if any,
that are actually paid by the Company for the period from January 1, 2007 to the
earlier of June 30, 2007 and the date the registration statement is declared
effective, if the registration statement is timely filed but is not declared
effective prior to January 1, 2007. The Company timely filed with the SEC on
January 9, 2006 a registration statement covering the resale of the Transferred
Shares by the institutional investors. Assuming the Company does not obtain
effectiveness of the registration statement during the 24 months following the
closing date and does not receive reimbursement from LLCP, the maximum
liquidated damages the Company would be required to pay under the registration
rights agreement would be approximately $3,451,453.

         On December 23, 2005, the Company, James Rudis and LLCP entered into a
Third Amendment to Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement. The primary
purposes of the amendment were to eliminate LLCP's board member designation
rights, co-sale rights, right of first refusal, anti-dilution protection
provisions, stock option-related approval rights and limitations and to remove
James Rudis as a party to that agreement. Also, the amendment deleted from the
February 24, 2005 letter agreement between the Company and LLCP the provision
restricting the price of future awards that may be made under the Company's 2005
Stock Plan.

         On April 21, 2005, the Company engaged Piper Jaffray & Co. as its
financial advisor to assist it in identifying and exploring strategic financial
alternatives to optimize stockholder value. Piper Jaffray & Co. has agreed to
assist the Company in executing and closing a suitable transaction, if any, that
may be identified and then selected by the Company for execution.

         For the three months ended January 2, 2005, 472,000 shares attributable
to outstanding out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation
of diluted EPS because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

7.       STOCK OPTIONS

         In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, which requires the
Company to measure the cost of all employee stock-based compensation awards
based on the grant date fair value of those awards and to record that cost as
compensation expense over the period during which the employee is required to
perform service in exchange for the award (generally over the vesting period of
the award). Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 123R will have an impact on
the Company's results of operations, although it will have no impact on its
overall financial position. The Company adopted SFAS No. 123R in the fiscal
quarter ended January 1, 2006. There was no immediate impact from the adoption
since no unvested stock options existed during the quarter. All of the Company's
options were fully vested at the date of adoption of this policy. Accordingly,
no stock compensation expense related to the adoption of this standard was
recorded.

8.       INCOME TAXES

         During the three months ended January 1, 2006, the Company recorded
income tax expense of $418,000. During fiscal year 2004, the Company recorded a
$425,000 valuation allowance against a portion of its deferred tax assets, since
at that time it was believed that such assets did not meet the more likely than
not criteria to be recoverable through projected future profitable operations in
the foreseeable future. However, in fiscal year 2005, in consideration of the
Company's improved financial performance during the fiscal year and anticipated
profitable operations, the Company reversed $337,000 of the previously recorded
valuation allowance. The remaining $88,000 was utilized against deferred tax
assets.


                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>

     Failure by the Company to successfully maintain improved margins, grow
revenues and/or maintain anticipated savings on future interest costs, and
maintain profitable operating results in the near term, could adversely affect
the Company's expected realization of some or all of its deferred tax assets and
could require the Company to record a valuation allowance against some or all of
such assets, which could adversely affect the Company's financial position and
results of operations.

         The effective tax rates for the first three months of fiscal years 2006
and 2005 were based upon the estimated annual effective tax rates of
approximately 40.1% in 2006 and 40.8% in 2005, respectively, which approximates
the statutory rate.

9.       CONTINGENCIES

         LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         From time to time, the Company is involved in various lawsuits, claims
and proceedings related to the conduct of the Company's business. Management
does not believe that the disposition of any pending claim is likely to
adversely affect the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows.

         CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK

         The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations
of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables. The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally
requires no collateral from its customers. The Company charges off uncollectible
accounts at the point in time when no recovery is expected.

         A significant portion of the Company's total net revenues during the
first three months of 2006 and 2005 was derived from two customers. Panda
Restaurant Group, Inc. and Jenny Craig, Inc. accounted for approximately 37% and
23%, respectively, of the Company's revenues for the three months ended January
1, 2006 and approximately 43% and 17%, respectively, of the Company's total
accounts receivable balance at January 1, 2006. Panda Restaurant Group, Inc. and
Jenny Craig, Inc. accounted for approximately 30% and 14% respectively, of the
Company's revenues for the three months ended January 2, 2005 and approximately
39% and 25%, respectively, of the Company's total accounts receivable balance at
October 2, 2005. The Company continues to expand its retail and foodservice
customer base with the goal of reducing its reliance on a small concentration of
accounts.

                  including those described in Item 1A of Part I of our annual
                  report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 2, 2005
                  and Item 1A of Part II of this report.

OVERVIEW

         We are a leading value-added manufacturer of high quality, prepared
frozen food products for branded retail, private label, food service and airline
customers. Our product line includes entrees, plated meals, bulk-packed meal
components, pastas, soups, sauces, poultry, meat and fish specialties, as well
as organic and vegetarian offerings. Our extensive research and development
efforts, combined with proprietary recipes and flexible manufacturing
capabilities, provide customers with a one-stop solution for new product ideas,
formulations and product manufacturing, as well as precise replication of
existing recipes. Our capabilities allow customers to outsource product
development, product manufacturing and packaging thereby avoiding significant
fixed-cost and variable investments in resources and equipment. Our customers
include such prominent nationally recognized names as Panda Restaurant Group,
Jenny Craig, Inc., American Airlines, Inc., Safeway Inc. and Pinnacle Foods
Corporation.

         Our goal is to be a leading developer and manufacturer of value-added
food products and provider of custom prepared foods. We intend to create
superior value for our stockholders by continuing to execute our growth and
operating strategies. We employ the following corporate strategies:

         o        diversify our customer base, focusing on sectors with
                  attractive growth characteristics, such as foodservice and
                  retail;

         o        invest in and operate efficient production facilities;

         o        provide customer service-oriented distribution;

         o        offer a broad range of products to customers in multiple
                  channels of distribution; and

         o        continue to pursue growth through strategic acquisitions and
                  investments.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         Management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and
results of operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from
those estimates. See Note 2 to the financial statements contained in our 2005
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 2, 2005 for a summary of
our significant accounting policies. Management believes the following critical
accounting policies are related to its more significant estimates and
assumptions used in the preparation of our financial statements.

         CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK. Our financial instruments that are
exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of trade receivables.
We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition and
generally require no collateral from our customers. A bankruptcy or other
significant financial deterioration of any customers could impact their future
ability to satisfy their receivables with us. Our allowance for doubtful
accounts is calculated based primarily upon historical bad debt experience and
current market conditions. For the three months ended January 1, 2006 and
January 2, 2005, our write-offs, net of recoveries, to the allowance for
doubtful accounts were approximately $2,000 and $0, respectively.


                                     - 13 -
<PAGE>

         A significant portion of our total net revenues during the first three
months of 2006 and 2005 was derived from two customers. Panda Restaurant Group,
Inc. and Jenny Craig, Inc. accounted for approximately 37% and 23%,
respectively, of our revenues for the three months ended January 1, 2006 and
approximately 43% and 17%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable
balance at January 1, 2006. Panda Restaurant Group, Inc. and Jenny Craig, Inc.
accounted for approximately 30% and 14% respectively, of our revenues for the
three months ended January 2, 2005 and approximately 39% and 25%, respectively,
of our total accounts receivable balance at October 2, 2005. We continue to
expand our retail and foodservice customer base with the goal of reducing our
reliance on a small concentration of accounts.

         INVENTORIES. Inventories, which include material, labor and
manufacturing overhead, are stated at the lower of cost, which approximates the
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, or market. We use a standard costing system
to estimate our FIFO cost of inventory at the end of each reporting period.
Historically, standard costs have been materially consistent with actual costs.
We determine the market value of our raw ingredients, finished product and
packaging inventories based upon references to current market prices for such
items as of the end of each reporting period and record a write-down of
inventory standard cost to market, when applicable. We periodically review our
inventory for excess items, and we establish a valuation reserve based upon the
age of specific items in inventory and the expected recovery from the
disposition of the items.

         A reserve is established for the estimated aged surplus, spoiled or
damaged products, and discontinued inventory items and components. The amount of
the reserve is determined by analyzing inventory composition, expected usage,
historical and projected sales information, and other factors. Changes in sales
volume due to unexpected economic or competitive conditions are among the
factors that could result in materially different amounts for this item. During
the quarter ended January 2, 2005, we revised our method to apply reserve
estimation percentages to aging categories. The effect of this change in
estimate resulted in one-time higher cost of sales and lower gross profit of
approximately $650,000 and lowered net income by approximately $370,000 for the
three months ended January 2, 2005.

         EXCESS OF COST OVER FAIR VALUE OF NET ASSETS ACQUIRED. We evaluate the
excess of cost over fair value of net assets acquired (goodwill) at least
annually for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142. We have one reporting
unit and estimate fair value based on a variety of market factors, including
discounted cash flow analysis, market capitalization, and other market-based
data. No impairment of goodwill was recorded during fiscal year 2005. At January
1, 2006, we had goodwill of $12.2 million. A deterioration of our operating
results and the related cash flow effect could decrease the estimated fair value
of our business and, thus, cause our goodwill to become impaired and cause us to
record a charge against operations in an amount representing the impairment.

         STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION. We estimate the fair value of stock options
granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula and a multiple
option award approach. The fair value is then amortized over the requisite
service periods of the awards. This option-pricing model requires the input of
highly subjective assumptions, including the option's expected life, price
volatility of the underlying stock, risk-free interest rate and expected
dividend rate. Because stock-based compensation expense is based on awards
ultimately expected to vest, it is reduced for estimated forfeitures. SFAS
123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if
necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those
estimates. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience.

         INCOME TAXES. We evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on our
deferred tax assets based on whether we believe that it is more likely than not
that all deferred tax assets will be realized. We consider future taxable income
and on-going prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need
for valuation allowances. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2004, we
recorded a $425,000 valuation allowance against a portion of our deferred tax
assets, since at that time it was believed that such assets did not meet the
more likely than not criteria to be recoverable through projected future
profitable operations in the foreseeable future. However, in fiscal year 2005,
as a result of improved operating results, we concluded that it was more likely
than not that our deferred tax assets would be realized. Accordingly, we
reversed $337,000 of the previously recorded valuation allowance. In the event
we were to determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our
deferred tax assets, we would record an adjustment to the deferred tax asset and
a charge to income, at that time.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

QUARTER ENDED JANUARY 1, 2006 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED JANUARY 2, 2005

         While we operate as a single business unit, manufacturing various
products on common production lines, revenues from similar customers are grouped
into the following natural categories: retail, foodservice and airlines.

         The quarters ended January 1, 2006 and January 2, 2005 were 13-week and
14-week periods, respectively.

         NET REVENUES. Net revenues for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006
decreased $629,000 (1.6%) to $39,589,000 from $40,219,000 for the first quarter
of fiscal year 2005. Foodservice net revenues increased $1,143,000 (7.6%) to
$16,242,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to $15,099,000
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 due to strong production requirements
of an existing customer. Retail net revenues increased $365,000 (2.2%) to
$16,994,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to $16,629,000
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. The increase in retail sales was
largely due to higher sales volume to a large national brand customer, offset by
lost revenues from two customers. One customer lost a government contract and
the other discontinued one of its retail lines. Sales to one new customer and
sales of new items to an existing customer began in late November of 2005. This
new business is expected to replace the revenues lost from the two customers
mentioned above. Airline net revenues decreased $2,138,000 (25.2%) to $6,353,000
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to $8,491,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2005. The decline in airline sales was attributable
to American Airlines' decision in February 2005 to remove meals from the coach
cabins of all of its domestic flights and also was attributable to significantly
reduced sales to Delta Airlines subsequent to their bankruptcy filing.

         GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased $21,000 (0.5%) to $4,393,000 for
the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to $4,414,000 for the first
quarter of fiscal year 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues
increased to 11.1% for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 from 11.0% for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2005. We expect margin percentage to remain
consistent with current sales volumes, with gross margins expected to increase
with increased sales volume. The first quarter of fiscal year 2006 included
normal costs associated with the start up of the new business mentioned above.

         During the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, we adopted a reserve
method that applies estimated reserve percentages to aging inventory categories.
The impact of this change in estimate resulted in a one-time increase to cost of
sales and decrease in gross profit of approximately $650,000, or a 1.6% decline
in gross profit as a percentage of net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2005. This decline was substantially offset by the benefit of an additional
week of production in the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 versus the first
quarter of fiscal year 2006.

         SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses (SG&A) increased $65,000 (3.6%) to $1,849,000 (4.7% of
net revenues) for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to
$1,784,000 (4.4% of net revenues) for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. The
increase in SG&A resulted largely from a $33,000 increase in bonus accruals and
increased legal and consulting fees.

         OPERATING INCOME. Operating income decreased $86,000 (3.3%) to
$2,544,000 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006 as compared to $2,630,000
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2005 largely due to the increase in SG&A
expenses discussed above.

         OTHER EXPENSES. Other expenses decreased $144,000 (8.7%) for the first
quarter of fiscal year 2006 to $1,519,000 as compared to $1,663,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal year 2005. Other expenses for the first quarter of
fiscal year 2005 included the loss on the disposition of certain fixed assets
during the period. Any improvement in interest rates from a potential
refinancing would decrease other expenses in future periods, assuming no
increase in the amount of outstanding borrowings.

         NET INCOME. The net result for the first quarter of fiscal year 2006
was net income of $607,000 ($.04 per basic and diluted share) as compared to a
net income of $601,000 ($.04 per basic and diluted share) for the first quarter
of fiscal year 2005.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Our principal source of liquidity is cash generated from our operating
activities. Our cash and cash equivalents increased $654,000 to $3,309,000 at
January 1, 2006 from $2,655,000 at October 2, 2005.


                                     - 15 -
<PAGE>

         During the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, our operating activities
provided cash of $1,513,000 as compared to cash provided of $717,000 during the
first quarter of fiscal year 2005. Cash generated from operations before working
capital changes was $1,341,000. Cash generated from changes in working capital
resulted from a $2,035,000 increase in accounts payable, offset by a $1,051,000
increase in inventories, a $735,000 increase in accounts receivable and a
$77,000 decrease in accrued liabilities. As of January 1, 2006, we had negative
working capital of $26,322,000 due to the classification of our secured senior
subordinated note and Term A note, with maturity dates of October 31, 2006, as
current liabilities. We have been engaged in discussions with several potential
sources of financing and anticipate we will be able to refinance our debt in
advance of maturity.

         During the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, our investing activities,
comprised of capital expenditures, resulted in a net use of cash of
approximately $371,000, as compared to a net use of cash of approximately
$299,000 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. Current year additions to
property and equipment relate to the purchase of new machinery to automate
certain manufacturing processes. Capital expenditures for additional capacity,
should they prove to be necessary to meet additional customer demand, may
increase during fiscal year 2006 or 2007 by $3 million to $6 million from fiscal
year 2005, depending on the amount of additional cooking capacity added. We
anticipate that capital expenditures will be funded by cash generated from
operating activities.

         During the first quarter of fiscal year 2006, our financing activities
resulted in a use of cash of $488,000 as compared to a use of cash of $871,000
during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005. The use of cash in both fiscal
periods resulted from principal payments on our debt, net of proceeds from the
exercise of options and related tax benefits in the first quarter of fiscal year
2006.

         As of January 1, 2006, our indebtedness to significant lenders
consisted substantially of debt evidenced by a secured senior subordinated note
payable to LLCP with a principal balance of $28.9 million and a senior Term A
note payable to PSI, an affiliate of LLCP, with a principal balance of $15.9
million. Both notes have a maturity date of October 31, 2006. The senior
subordinated note has a base rate of interest of 13.5%, subject to increase upon
the occurrence of an interest rate event, as defined, or event of default. The
interest rate on the Term A Loan, as amended, is the greater of 5.5% or the
prime rate in effect from time to time plus 1.5% and is subject to increase upon
the occurrence of any interest rate event, as defined, or event of default as
provided in the note that evidences the loan.

         From time to time, we have obtained amendments to the financing
agreements to enable us to remain in compliance with financial and/or
non-financial covenants. On September 7, 2005, we executed the fifth amendment
to the existing financing arrangements with PSI and LLCP to amend the financial
covenants and various other provisions. In the September 7, 2005 amendments, we
agreed to make five scheduled installment principal payments totaling $1.6
million on the Term A Loan commencing on the effective date of the amendment
through December 30, 2005. The amendments also amended certain definitions of
the financial covenants of the secured senior subordinated note.

         The amended and restated securities purchase agreement with LLCP and
the amended and restated loan and security agreement with PSI, which have been
amended from time to time, contain various covenants, including financial
covenants covering restrictions on capital expenditures, minimum EBITDA and net
worth levels, and specified debt service and debt to equity ratios. In addition,
those agreements prohibit changes in control, including ownership and certain
management personnel, and contain customary restrictions on incurring
indebtedness and liens, making investments, paying dividends and making loans or
advances. The obligations owing by us to PSI and LLCP are secured by liens on
substantially all of our assets.

         We believe that we will be in compliance with all of our revised
financial and other covenant requirements for the foreseeable future. In the
future, our failure to achieve certain revenue, expense and profitability levels
could result in a violation of the amended financial covenants under our
financing arrangements and could result in interest rate increases and
acceleration of maturity of the loans, which could adversely affect our
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

         We believe that funds available to us from operations, existing capital
resources and an anticipated refinancing of our debt that matures in October
2006 will be adequate for our capital requirements for at the least the next
twelve months. However, no assurance can be given that we will be able to
generate sufficient funds from operations or that we will successfully refinance
our debt timely or on favorable terms. We have engaged in discussions with
several potential sources of debt financing. We have signed a term letter with a
potential new lender, but have not yet entered into any definitive refinancing
agreements. Any inability by us to refinance our existing debt prior to its
maturity or on more favorable terms could adversely affect our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows. Following is a summary of our
contractual obligations at January 1, 2006:

         The increase in the value of outstanding purchase orders from
$8,127,476 at October 2, 2005 to $35,075,036 at January 1, 2006 is largely due
to the fact that the majority of our chicken contracts were signed late in
calendar year 2005 for purchases during calendar year 2006.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         INTEREST RATE RISK - OBLIGATIONS. We are subject to interest rate risk
on variable interest rate obligations. A hypothetical 10% increase in average
market interest rates would increase by approximately $151,000 annual interest
expense on our debt outstanding as of January 1, 2006. We are also subject to
interest rate risk on our fixed interest rate obligations. Based upon
outstanding amounts of fixed rate obligations as of January 1, 2006, a
hypothetical 10% decrease in average market interest rates would increase the
fair value of outstanding fixed rate debt by approximately $180,000.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

         Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), have
concluded, based on their evaluation as of January 1, 2006, that the design and
operation of our "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined in Rule
13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange
Act")) are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us
in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and
Exchange Commission's ("Commission's") rules and forms, including to ensure that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit
under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as
appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding whether or not disclosure is
required.

         During the quarter ended January 1, 2006, there were no changes in our
"internal controls over financial reporting" (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under
the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

         From time to time, we are involved in various lawsuits, claims and
proceedings related to the conduct of our business. Management does not believe
that the disposition of any pending claims is likely to adversely affect our
financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

         ITEM 1A OF PART I OF OUR FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 2,
2005 SUMMARIZES VARIOUS MATERIAL RISKS THAT INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER
BEFORE DECIDING TO BUY OR MAINTAIN AN INVESTMENT IN OUR COMMON STOCK. ANY OF
THOSE RISKS, IF THEY ACTUALLY OCCUR, WOULD LIKELY HARM OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND COULD CAUSE THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR
COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE. THE FOLLOWING SETS FORTH MATERIAL CHANGES FROM THE RISK
FACTORS SET FORTH IN OUR MOST RECENT FORM 10-K.

         The risk factor titled "A small group of stockholders beneficially owns
a significant amount of our common stock and controls nominations for up to four
seats on our board of directors" is updated as follows:

      A SMALL NUMBER OF STOCKHOLDERS BENEFICIALLY OWNS A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE
      OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK AND THEREFORE COULD SIGNIFICANTLY
      INFLUENCE OR CONTROL MATTERS REQUIRING STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL.

         Assuming the exercise of the aggregate options issued to our executive
officers and directors to purchase shares of our common stock, our executive
officers and directors and stockholders who beneficially own greater than 5% of
our common stock were beneficial owners, in the aggregate, of approximately 52%
of our outstanding common stock as of January 31, 2006. These stockholders, if
acting together, could be able to significantly influence or control matters
requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and
the approval of mergers or other business combination transactions.

         The following new risk factors are added:

      ANY FAILURE TO SUCCESSFULLY REFINANCE OUR EXISTING SECURED INDEBTEDNESS
      TIMELY OR ON FAVORABLE TERMS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION,
      RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OR CASH FLOWS BY PERMITTING SECURED PARTIES TO
      FORECLOSE ON OUR ASSETS OR BY SUBJECTING OUR STOCKHOLDERS TO DILUTION OR
      IMPOSING ON US STRINGENT FINANCIAL OR OTHER RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

         As of January 31, 2006, we owed to PSI and LLCP secured indebtedness
with principal balances totaling approximately $44.8 million and a maturity date
of October 31, 2006. We are working toward refinancing this indebtedness with
other potential lenders. However, we have not entered into any definitive
refinancing arrangements. If we are unable to timely refinance or repay this
indebtedness, PSI and LLCP could foreclose on substantially all of our assets.
Alternatively, if we are able to timely refinance this indebtedness but are
unable to obtain favorable terms, existing stockholders may suffer significant
dilution and we may become subject to stringent financial and other covenants
that restrict our flexibility or require us to delay, scale back or eliminate
portions of our operations or product development and marketing efforts.

      FUTURE SALES OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK BY OUR STOCKHOLDERS COULD CAUSE
      OUR STOCK PRICE TO DECLINE.

         We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of
our common stock or the availability of shares of common stock for sale will
have on the market price prevailing from time to time. As of January 31, 2006,
we had outstanding 15,260,271 shares of common stock. An aggregate of 5,771,661
of these shares were included for resale under a pending registration statement
we filed on January 9, 2006. As of January 31, 2006, we also had outstanding
options to purchase up to 1,109,000 shares of common stock. All of the shares of
common stock underlying these options are covered on an existing effective


                                     - 18 -
<PAGE>

registration statement. Sales of shares of our common stock in the public market
after the pending registration statement is declared effective, or the
perception that those sales may occur, could cause the trading price of our
common stock to decrease or to be lower than it might be in the absence of those
shares or perceptions.
