Cautionary Statement on Forward-Looking
Information

This report contains forward-looking
statements, which are statements other than statements of
historical facts. These forward-looking statements use phrases
such as expects or anticipates. The
forward-looking statements include, among other things, the
Companys expectations and estimates about its business
operations, strategy, and its expectations and estimates about
its future financial performance, including its financial
position, cash flows from operations, capital expenditures and
ability to refinance indebtedness. The forward-looking
statements in this Form 10-Q are intended to be subject to
the safe harbor protection provided by the federal securities
laws.

The forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, uncertainties and assumptions about the Company and about
the future, and could prove not to be correct. Cautionary
statements describing factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from the Companys expectations are
discussed in this report, including in conjunction with the
forward-looking statements included in this report. All
subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements
attributable to the Company or to persons acting on behalf of
the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by those
cautionary statements.

The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly
update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light
of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the
forward-looking events discussed in this report may not occur.

American Tire Distributors, Inc.



Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements


(Unaudited)


1.     Nature of
Business:

American Tire Distributors, Inc. (together with
its subsidiaries, the Company) (formerly Heafner
Tire Group, Inc.), is a Delaware corporation primarily engaged
in the wholesale distribution of tires and tire accessories. On
May 30, 2002, the Company changed its name from Heafner
Tire Group, Inc. to American Tire Distributors, Inc.

2.     Basis of
Presentation:

The unaudited consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and
footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial
position, results of operations, and changes in financial
position in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. In the opinion of the Company, 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. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Companys consolidated financial statements reported on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2002.
The results of the operations for the quarter and six months
ended June 28, 2003 are subject to year-end audit
adjustments, and are not necessarily indicative of the operating
results for the full fiscal year. Certain prior period amounts
have been reclassified to conform to the current period
presentation.

3.     New Accounting
Pronouncements:

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 145,
Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections as of April 2002. This statement contains a
number of changes under existing GAAP, including the elimination
of extraordinary item classification of most debt
extinguishments that was previously required under SFAS 4. The
provisions of this statement related to the rescission of
Statement 4 apply in fiscal years beginning after May 15,
2002. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 145 in
the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, which required
reclassification of the Companys 2002 extraordinary gain
(Note 9).

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,
Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities. This statement addresses financial accounting
and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other
Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring). This statement requires that a liability
for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be
recognized when the liability is incurred. Under Issue 94-3, a
liability for an exit cost (other than employee termination
benefits), as defined, was recognized at the date of an
entitys commitment to an exit plan. The provisions of SFAS
No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that
are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early
application encouraged. The Company adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 146 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003. The
adoption of this statement had no material impact on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB
Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, Guarantors
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others  an
interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and a
recission of FASB Interpretation No. 34. FIN 45
elaborates on the disclosures to be made regarding obligations
under certain guarantees in interim and annual financial
statements. It also clarifies the requirement of a guarantor to
recognize a liability at the inception of the guarantee based on
the fair value of the obligation. The provisions relating to the
initial recognition and measurement of a liability are
applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or

Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements  (Continued)

modified subsequent to December 31, 2002.
The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for interim
and annual financials statements for periods ending after
December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure
provisions of this statement effective December 15, 2002.
The liability recognition provisions of this statement were
adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 and had no
material impact on the Companys financial position or
results of operations.

In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on
Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including
a Reseller) for Cash Considerations Received from a
Vendor. Issue No. 02-16 provides guidance on how cash
consideration received by a customer or reseller should be
classified in the customers statement of earnings. Issue
No. 02-16 is effective for all transactions with vendors
after December 31, 2002. The adoption of Issue No. 02-16
did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. The transition guidance and annual
disclosure provisions are effective for fiscal years ending
after December 15, 2002 and the interim disclosure
provisions are effective for interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2002. This statement provides alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value
based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements
regarding the method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported
results. At this time, the Company has not voluntarily adopted
the fair value method of accounting under SFAS No. 123, but is
required to provide certain pro forma disclosures, which are
presented below.

The Company accounts for stock option grants in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB
No. 25). Pursuant to APB No. 25, compensation
expense is recognized for financial reporting purposes using the
intrinsic value method over the vesting period. The amount of
compensation expense to be recognized is determined by the
excess of the fair value of common stock over the exercise price
of the related option at the date of grant. Accordingly, no
compensation expense has been recorded in the consolidated
statements of operations, as the exercise price of all stock
options was equal to fair value of the underlying common stock
at the date of grant.

The following information is presented as if the
Company had accounted for its employee stock options under the
fair value method prescribed by SFAS No. 123 (in thousands):

The weighted average fair value of options
granted during the first quarter 2003 and second quarter 2002
estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model was $1.00 and $0.55, respectively. The fair value
of options granted in the first quarter 2003 and second quarter
2002 were determined using the following assumptions: a
risk-free interest rate of 4.05% and 4.93%, respectively, no
dividend yield, expected life of 10 years which equals the
terms of the options, and no expected volatility. There were no
options granted in the second quarter 2003 and the first quarter
2002.

Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements  (Continued)

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,
Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts
entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for
hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The
Company is required to adopt the provision of SFAS No. 149
in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 and does not expect the
adoption to have a material impact on the results of operations
or financial position in the foreseeable future.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150,
Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS
No. 150 establishes standards for how financial instruments
with characteristics of both liabilities and equity should be
measured and classified and requires that an issuer classify a
financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability.
SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered
into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning
after June 15, 2003. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS No. 150 to have a material impact on the
results of operations or financial position in the foreseeable
future.

4.     Inventories:

Inventories consist primarily of automotive
tires, wheels and accessories and are valued at the lower of
cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method
or market. The Company performs periodic assessments to
determine the existence of obsolete, slow-moving and
non-saleable inventories and records necessary provisions to
reduce such inventories to net realizable value. Terms with a
majority of the Companys tire vendors allow return of tire
products, within limitations, specified in their supply
agreements.

5.     Shipping and
Handling Costs:

Outbound shipping and handling costs are
classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Such
expenses totaled $16.9 million and $16.2 million for the
quarters ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002,
respectively, and $33.4 million and $31.9 million for the six
months ended June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002,
respectively.

6.     Deferred
Income Taxes:

The Company has deferred tax assets of $19.1
million and $22.2 million at June 28, 2003 and
December 28, 2002, respectively. The decrease in net
deferred tax assets is primarily attributable to current period
income and the corresponding net operating loss carryforward
(NOLs) utilization. Management has evaluated the
Companys deferred tax assets and has concluded that the
realizability of the deferred tax assets is more likely
than not, except as it relates to certain state NOLs, for
which a valuation allowance of $1.0 million is recorded as of
June 28, 2003, unchanged from December 28, 2002. This
evaluation considered the historical and long-term expected
profitability of the Company. Given the timing of the reversal
of its temporary differences and the expiration date of its
NOLs, the Company believes that taxable income generated in
current and future years will be sufficient to utilize the
remaining net deferred tax assets. The Companys ability to
generate future taxable income is dependent on numerous factors
including general economic conditions, the state of the
replacement tire market and other factors beyond
managements control. Therefore, there can be no assurance
that the Company will meet its expectation of future taxable
income and adjustments to the valuation allowance may be
required in the future.

7.     Financing
Arrangements:

Revolving Credit
Facility

At June 28, 2003, the Companys
revolving credit facility (Revolver), as amended,
provides for borrowings in the aggregate principal amount of up
to the lesser of $180.0 million less defined reserves or the
Borrowing Base, as defined in the agreement, which is based on
85% of eligible accounts receivable plus 50%-65% of eligible
inventories less defined reserves.

The Revolver term expires in March 2005,
extendable by the Company and the banks for an additional five
years. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest, at
(i) the Base Rate, as defined, plus the applicable margin
(1.50% as of June 28, 2003) or (ii) the Eurodollar
Rate, as defined, plus the applicable margin (3.00% as of
June 28, 2003). These margins are subject to
performance-based step-downs resulting in margins ranging from
0.75% to 2.0% for Base Rate loans and 2.0% to 3.5% for
Eurodollar Rate loans, respectively.

The Revolver, as amended, requires the Company to
meet certain covenants, including minimum EBITDA, fixed charge
coverage and tangible capital funds, all as defined, and minimum
loan availability and certain covenants which, among other
things, restrict the ability of the Company to incur additional
indebtedness; enter into guarantees; make loans and investments;
make capital expenditures; declare dividends; engage in mergers,
consolidations and asset sales; enter into transactions with
affiliates; create liens and encumbrances; enter into
sale/leaseback transactions; modify material agreements; and
change the business it conducts. As of August 12, 2003, the
Company was in compliance with these covenants, as amended. The
Companys obligations under the Revolver are secured by all
inventories and accounts receivable.

Capital Lease
Obligations

On March 27, 2002, the Company completed an
agreement for the sale and leaseback of three of its owned
facilities generating cash proceeds of $13.9 million. In
connection therewith, the Company recorded a $14.0 million
capital lease obligation during the first quarter of 2002. All
cash paid to the lessor is recorded as interest expense and the
capital lease obligation will be reduced when the Company no
longer has continuing involvement with the properties. The
initial term of the lease is for 20 years, followed by two
10-year renewal options. The annual rent paid under the terms of
the lease is $1.6 million (paid quarterly) and is adjusted for
CPI changes every two years. In addition, the purchaser received
warrants to purchase 153,597 shares of the Companys common
stock. The warrants have a term of 10 years with a stated
exercise price of $3.00 per warrant. The Company recorded these
warrants at fair value and has presented them as a component of
stockholders equity.

Debt
Maturities

Aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt,
reflecting the debt restructuring discussed in Note 9,
(excluding capital lease obligations) at June 28, 2003, are
as follows (in thousands):

|                 |  |   |         |

Derivative
Instruments

During second quarter 2003, the Company entered
into an interest rate swap agreement (Swap) to
manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Swap
represents a contract to exchange floating rate for fixed
interest payments periodically over the life of the agreement
without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The notional
amount of the Swap is used to measure interest to be paid or
received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit
loss. At June 28, 2003, the Swap in place covers a notional
amount of $50.0 million of indebtedness at a fixed interest rate
of 2.14% and expires in June 2006. This Swap has not been
designated for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, the
Company recognizes the fair value of the Swap in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and any
changes in the fair value are recorded as adjustments to
interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations. The fair value of the Swap is the estimated amount
that the Company would pay or receive to terminate the agreement
at the reporting date. As of June 28, 2003, the fair value
of the Swap was a liability of $0.3 million, and is included in
other liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated balance sheet at June 28, 2003. As a result of
the change in fair value, $0.3 million was recorded as
additional interest expense for the quarter ended June 28,
2003.

8.     Discontinued
Operations:

Effective May 15, 2001, the Company
completed a transaction pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement
to sell all the capital stock in Winston Tire Company
(Winston), the Companys retail segment, to
Performance Management, Inc. for a purchase price of
approximately $10.0 million. As of June 28, 2003, $2.8
million of the purchase price remains outstanding and a reserve
is maintained for the full amount. This segment has been
reflected as a discontinued operation in the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.

The Company remains liable as a guarantor on
certain of Winstons leases. As of June 28, 2003,
total obligations of the Company, as guarantor on these leases,
is approximately $14.4 million extending over 16 years.
However, the Company has secured assignments or sublease
agreements for the vast majority of these commitments with
contractually assigned or subleased rental of approximately
$12.2 million. A provision has been made for the estimated
shortfall.

9.     Gain on
Repurchase of Series D Senior Notes:

On March 27, 2002, the Company repurchased
$121.4 million in outstanding principal amount of the
Series D Senior Notes (Senior Notes) at a
purchase price of $535 per $1,000 in face amount of Senior
Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest of $4.5 million. The
Company funded the repurchase of the Senior Notes through
several debt restructuring transactions (Restructuring
Transactions). The Restructuring Transactions consisted of
(i) an amendment to the Companys Revolver to provide
additional availability, (ii) a sale and leaseback of three
of the Companys tire distribution warehouses generating
cash proceeds of $13.9 million and (iii) an equity
investment of $28.9 million from the issuance of 9,637,592
shares of Series D preferred stock to the Companys
existing stockholders. Concurrently with the repurchase of the
Senior Notes, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the
Trustee executed the Fourth Supplemental Indenture to the
Indenture. The amendments to the Indenture were effected
primarily to permit the Restructuring Transactions and make
other required modifications.

In connection with the Restructuring
Transactions, the Company issued warrants to several vendors,
which permit the holders to acquire up to 307,193 shares of the
Companys common stock at $.01 per share. The warrants
expire on March 27, 2005. The Company recorded these
warrants at fair value and has presented them as a component of
stockholders equity.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, the
Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 145, which
eliminates the extraordinary item classification of most debt
extinguishments that was previously required

under SFAS 4 (Note 3). Accordingly, the Company
has reclassified the pre-tax loss of $0.2 million on the
repurchase of the Senior Notes in second quarter 2002 and the
pre-tax gain of $49.8 million for the six-month period ended
June 29, 2002 from an extraordinary gain to a separate line
item before income from continuing operations. The related
income tax benefit of $0.1 million for second quarter 2002 and
income tax provision of $19.9 million for the six-month period
ended June 29, 2002 has been reclassified to provision for
income taxes.

The stated value of Series A preferred stock
is $1,000 per share. Holders of Series A preferred stock
are entitled to receive, when and if declared by the Board of
Directors, cumulative cash dividends at an annual rate of 4%,
subject to adjustment based on the volume of purchases from the
supplier. Additional dividends will accrue, when and if declared
by the Board of Directors, and are payable on the last business
day of January. For the six-month period ending June 28,
2003, the Company declared and paid a dividend based on a 4%
rate. This amount is included in interest expense in the
accompanying consolidated statements of operations. The
Series A preferred stock can be redeemed by the Company,
beginning on the last business day of December 2002 and on the
last business day of each June and December thereafter, through
June 2007. In June 2003, the Company redeemed 500 shares of the
Series A preferred stock for $0.5 million.

The stated value of Series B preferred stock
is initially $1,000 per share, to be adjusted based on tire
purchase credits as determined by the number of units purchased
under a purchase agreement with a supplier entered into in May
1997. Dividends on Series B preferred stock are payable,
when and if declared by the Board of Directors, at the prime
rate if the Company does not meet certain tire purchase
requirements. The remaining value of Series B preferred
stock shall be redeemed by the Company on the last business day
of June 2007 at a price equal to the adjusted stated value plus
all accrued and unpaid dividends. To date, the Company has met
the purchase requirements, thus no dividends have been declared
and paid.

11.     Stockholders
Equity:

Amendment to
Articles of Incorporation

In conjunction with the Restructuring
Transactions, the Company amended and restated its articles of
incorporation to authorize 50,000,000 shares of a single class
of $.01 par value common stock and 10,982,426 shares of $.01 par
value preferred stock. Of the 10,982,426 shares of preferred
stock, 7,000 shares are initially designated Series A
preferred stock, 4,500 shares are initially designated
Series B preferred stock, 1,333,334 shares are initially
designated Series C preferred stock and 9,637,592 shares
are initially designated Series D preferred stock. The
conversion price of the Series C preferred stock was
reduced to $3.00 per common share and the holders
redemption rights were eliminated.

On March 27, 2002, the Company issued
9,637,592 shares of Series D preferred stock for $3.00 per
share in exchange for $28.9 million in cash contributed by
certain of its principal stockholders. The proceeds were used to
repurchase certain of the Companys Senior Notes. Shares of
Series D preferred stock accrue dividends at an annual rate
of 12% and are redeemable at the option of the Company at the
initial price plus any cumulative unpaid dividends as of the
redemption date. However, as long as any shares of Series A
preferred stock or Series B preferred stock remain
outstanding, no dividends may be paid, nor shall redemption
occur. No dividends have been declared or paid to date on the
Series C or Series D preferred stock. In addition,
shares of Series D preferred stock are convertible into
common stock at a conversion price of $3.00 per common share.

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

The following discussion and analysis of the
results of operations, financial condition and liquidity of the
Company should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and related notes included in this report.

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended June 28, 2003 Compared
to Quarter Ended June 29, 2002

Consolidated net sales in the second quarter 2003
increased by $8.1 million, or 2.9% to $285.7 million from $277.6
million in the second quarter 2002. While sales in the second
quarter 2003 have increased, they were still impacted by
continued weakness in the replacement tire market. However, the
increase in sales experienced by the Company was still more than
that of the industry as a whole. Units of replacement passenger
and light truck tires shipped for the industry were down
approximately 0.6% for the second quarter 2003 versus second
quarter 2002.

Gross profit increased by $3.9 million, or 7.8%
to $53.4 million in the second quarter 2003 from $49.5 million
in the second quarter 2002. Gross profit as a percentage of
sales increased 0.9% to 18.7% in the second quarter 2003
compared to 17.8% in the second quarter 2002. Margin increases
were primarily attributable to a reduction in promotional
activity in 2003 versus the same period in 2002.

Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased by $0.7 million in the second quarter 2003
representing 14.8% as a percentage of sales compared to 14.9% in
the second quarter 2002. The increase in these expenses is
primarily due to increased costs associated with the
Companys group health plan in 2003 versus the same period
in 2002.

Interest expense decreased $0.3 million in the
second quarter of 2003 to $3.9 million from $4.3 million in the
second quarter of 2002. The decrease is primarily attributable
to the decline in interest rates, partially offset by a $0.3
million adjustment relating to the change in fair value of the
interest rate swap agreement entered into in the second quarter
of 2003.

Pre-tax income for the second quarter 2003 was
$7.3 million resulting in an income tax provision of $2.9
million compared to pre-tax income of $3.5 million in second
quarter 2002 resulting in a tax provision of $1.4 million. The
effective tax rate in each quarter was approximately 40%.

Six Months Ended June 28, 2003
Compared to Six Months Ended June 29, 2002

Consolidated net sales increased by $14.2
million, or 2.7%, from the six-month period in 2002. The sales
increase is primarily attributable to an increase in passenger,
light truck tire, and custom wheel sales that is partially
offset by a decrease in large truck tire sales. The
Companys capital equipment business was relatively flat
for the period. The increase in sales experienced by the Company
was more than that of the industry as a whole. Units of
replacement passenger and light truck tires shipped for the
industry were down approximately 3.4% for the six-month period
in 2003 versus the six-month period in 2002.

Gross profit for the six-month period in 2003
increased by $1.9 million, or 2.0%, from the six-month period in
2002. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased to 18.2%
for the six-month period in 2003 compared to 18.4% in the
six-month period 2002. The decline in gross profit as a
percentage of sales is a result of an aggressive first quarter
2003 marketing program.

Selling, general and administrative expenses
decreased by $1.4 million in the six-month period ending
June 28, 2003 representing 15.2% as a percentage of sales
compared to 15.9% in the six-month period ending June 29,
2002. This decrease was primarily a result of a workforce
reduction, partially offset by increased costs associated with
the Companys group health plan as discussed above.

Interest expense decreased in the six-month
period ending June 28, 2003 by $2.9 million to $7.7 million
due to lower outstanding principal on the Companys
Series D Senior Notes as well as a decline in interest
rates.

Pre-tax income for the six-month period ending
June 28, 2003 was $9.0 million resulting in an income tax
provision of $3.6 million compared to pre-tax income of $52.4
million for the six-month period ending June 29, 2002
resulting in a tax provision of $21.0 million. The six-month
period ending June 29, 2002 included the $49.8 million gain
on repurchase of Series D Senior Notes and the related tax
provision of $19.9 million. The effective tax rate for each of
the six-month periods was approximately 40%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 28, 2003, the combined net
indebtedness (net of cash) of the Company was $177.6 million
compared to $178.4 million at December 28, 2002. Total
commitments by the lenders under the Companys revolving
credit facility (Revolver) were $180.0 million at
June 28, 2003. As of June 28, 2003, the Company had
$25.8 million available for additional borrowings. The amount
available to borrow is limited by the Borrowing Base
computation, as defined in the agreement.

The Company evaluates performance based on
several factors, of which the primary financial measure is
earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes,
depreciation and amortization and gain on repurchase of Series D
Senior Notes (EBITDA). EBITDA should not be
considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net
income or cash flow as determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. The following table is a
reconciliation of income from continuing operations to EBITDA:

EBITDA from continuing operations increased to
$12.9 million for the second quarter 2003 from $10.0 million for
second quarter 2002. This increase is primarily attributed to
higher sales and gross profit margins in the second quarter 2003
that were partially offset by slightly higher operating costs.

EBITDA from continuing operations increased to
$20.1 million for the six-month period 2003 from $17.4 million
for the six-month period 2002. The increase is primarily
attributable to increased sales and reduced operating costs in
2003 that were partially offset by a decrease in gross profit
percentage as discussed above.

The Companys principal sources of cash
during the six-month period ending June 28, 2003 came from
operations and from net proceeds from the Revolver and other
long-term debt. Cash was used during the six-month period 2003
to make capital expenditures and payments on long-term debt. Net
working capital at June 28, 2003 totaled $90.6 million
compared to $83.1 million at December 28, 2002, an increase
of $7.5 million. The increase in working capital is primarily
attributable to increased business activity during the period
resulting in higher accounts receivable and inventory balances
partially offset by an increase in accounts payable.

Capital expenditures for the six- month period
ending June 28, 2003 and June 29, 2002 amounted to
$1.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Capital
expenditures in 2003 were primarily for warehouse racking and
leasehold improvements.

At June 28, 2003, the Companys
Revolver, as amended, provides for borrowings in the aggregate
principal amount of up to the lesser of $180.0 million less
defined reserves or the Borrowing Base, as defined in

18



---



##### 



the agreement, which is based on 85% of eligible
accounts receivable plus 50%  65% of eligible
inventories less defined reserves.


The Revolver term expires in March 2005,
extendable by the Company and the banks for an additional five
years. Borrowings under the Revolver bear interest, at
(i) the Base Rate, as defined, plus the applicable margin
(1.50% as of June 28, 2003) or (ii) the Eurodollar
Rate, as defined, plus the applicable margin (3.00% as of
June 28, 2003). These margins are subject to
performance-based step-downs resulting in margins ranging from
0.75% to 2.0% for Base Rate loans and 2.0% to 3.5% for
Eurodollar Rate loans, respectively.

The Revolver, as amended, requires the Company to
meet certain covenants, including minimum EBITDA, fixed charge
coverage and tangible capital funds, all as defined, and minimum
loan availability and certain covenants which, among other
things, restrict the ability of the Company to incur additional
indebtedness; enter into guarantees; make loans and investments;
make capital expenditures; declare dividends; engage in mergers,
consolidations and asset sales; enter into transactions with
affiliates; create liens and encumbrances; enter into
sale/leaseback transactions; modify material agreements; and
change the business it conducts. As of August 12, 2003, the
Company was in compliance with these covenants, as amended. The
Companys obligations under the Revolver are secured by all
inventories and accounts receivable.

During second quarter 2003, the Company entered
into an interest rate swap agreement (Swap) to
manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. The Swap
represents a contract to exchange floating rate for fixed
interest payments periodically over the life of the agreement
without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The notional
amount of the Swap is used to measure interest to be paid or
received and does not represent the amount of exposure to credit
loss. At June 28, 2003, the Swap in place covers a notional
amount of $50.0 million of indebtedness at a fixed interest rate
of 2.14% and expires in June 2006. This Swap has not been
designated for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, the
Company recognizes the fair value of the Swap in the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and any
changes in the fair value are recorded as adjustments to
interest expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of
operations. The fair value of the Swap is the estimated amount
that the Company would pay or receive to terminate the agreement
at the reporting date. As of June 28, 2003, the fair value
of the Swap was a liability of $0.3 million, and is included in
other liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated balance sheet at June 28, 2003. As a result of
the change in fair value, $0.3 million was recorded as
additional interest expense for the quarter ended June 28,
2003.

On March 27, 2002, the Company repurchased
$121.4 million in outstanding principal amount of the
Series D Senior Notes (Senior Notes) at a
purchase price of $535 per $1,000 in face amount of Senior
Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest of $4.5 million. The
Company funded the repurchase of the Senior Notes through
several debt restructuring transactions (Restructuring
Transactions). The Restructuring Transactions consisted of
(i) an amendment to the Companys Revolver to provide
additional availability, (ii) a sale and leaseback of three
of the Companys tire distribution warehouses generating
cash proceeds of $13.9 million and (iii) an equity
investment of $28.9 million from the issuance of 9,637,592
shares of Series D preferred stock to the Companys
existing stockholders. Concurrently with the repurchase of the
Senior Notes, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the
Trustee executed the Fourth Supplemental Indenture to the
Indenture. The amendments to the Indenture were effected
primarily to permit the Restructuring Transactions and make
other required modifications.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, the
Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 145, which
eliminates the extraordinary item classification of most debt
extinguishments that was previously required under SFAS 4 (Note
3). Accordingly, the Company has reclassified the pre-tax loss
of $0.2 million on repurchase of Senior Notes in second quarter
2002 and the pre-tax gain of $49.8 million for the six-month
period 2002 from an extraordinary gain to a separate line item
before income from continuing operations. The related income tax
benefit of $0.1 million for second quarter 2002 and income tax
provision of $19.9 million for the six-month period 2002 has
been reclassified to provision for income taxes.

The Company anticipates that its principal use of
cash going forward will be to meet working capital and debt
service requirements and to make capital expenditures. Based
upon current and anticipated levels of

19



---



##### 



operations, the Company believes that its cash
flow from operations, together with amounts available under the
Revolver, will be adequate to meet its anticipated requirements.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Companys
business will continue to generate sufficient cash flow from
operations in the future to meet these requirements or to
service its debt, and the Company may be required to refinance
all or a portion of its existing debt, or to obtain additional
financing. These increased borrowings may result in higher
interest payments. In addition, there can be no assurance that
any such refinancing would be possible or that any additional
financing could be obtained. The inability to obtain additional
financing could have a material adverse effect on the Company.


Income Taxes

The Company has deferred tax assets of $19.1
million and $22.2 million at June 28, 2003 and
December 28, 2002, respectively. The decrease in net
deferred tax assets is primarily attributable to current period
income and the corresponding net operating loss carryforward
(NOLs) utilization. Management has evaluated the
Companys deferred tax assets and has concluded that the
realizability of the deferred tax assets is more likely
than not, except as it relates to certain state NOLs, for
which a valuation allowance of $1.0 million is recorded as of
June 28, 2003, unchanged from December 28, 2002. This
evaluation considered the historical and long-term expected
profitability of the Company. Given the timing of the reversal
of its temporary differences and the expiration date of its
NOLs, the Company believes that taxable income generated in
current and future years will be sufficient to utilize the
remaining net deferred tax assets. The Companys ability to
generate future taxable income is dependent on numerous factors
including general economic conditions, the state of the
replacement tire market and other factors beyond
managements control. Therefore, there can be no assurance
that the Company will meet its expectation of future taxable
income and adjustments to the valuation allowance may be
required in the future.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 145,
Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64,
Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical
Corrections as of April 2002. This statement contains a
number of changes under existing GAAP, including the elimination
of extraordinary item classification of most debt
extinguishments that was previously required under SFAS 4. The
provisions of this statement related to the rescission of
Statement 4 apply in fiscal years beginning after May 15,
2002. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 145 in
the first quarter of fiscal year 2003, which required
reclassification of the Companys 2002 extraordinary gain
(Note 9).

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146,
Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal
Activities. This statement addresses financial accounting
and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal
activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF) Issue No. 94-3, Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other
Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a
Restructuring). This statement requires that a liability
for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be
recognized when the liability is incurred. Under Issue 94-3, a
liability for an exit cost (other than employee termination
benefits), as defined, was recognized at the date of an
entitys commitment to an exit plan. The provisions of SFAS
No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that
are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early
application encouraged. The Company adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 146 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003. The
adoption of this statement had no material impact on the
Companys financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB
Interpretation No. (FIN) 45, Guarantors
Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including
Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an
interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and a
rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34. FIN 45
elaborates on the disclosures to be made regarding obligations
under certain guarantees in interim and annual financial
statements. It also clarifies the requirement of a guarantor to
recognize a liability at the inception of the guarantee based on
the fair value of the obligation. The provisions relating to the
initial recognition and measurement of a liability are
applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or

20



---



##### 



modified subsequent to December 31, 2002.
The disclosure requirements of FIN 45 are effective for interim
and annual financials statements for periods ending after
December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure
provisions of this statement effective December 15, 2002.
The liability recognition provisions of this statement were
adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 and had no
material impact on the Companys financial position or
results of operations.


In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on
Issue No. 02-16, Accounting by a Customer (Including
a Reseller) for Cash Considerations Received from a
Vendor. Issue No. 02-16 provides guidance on how cash
consideration received by a customer or reseller should be
classified in the customers statement of earnings. Issue
No. 02-16 is effective for all transactions with vendors
after December 31, 2002. The adoption of Issue No. 02-16
did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation-Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. The transition guidance and annual
disclosure provisions are effective for fiscal years ending
after December 15, 2002 and the interim disclosure
provisions are effective for interim periods beginning after
December 15, 2002. This statement provides alternative
methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value
based method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent
disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements
regarding the method of accounting for stock-based employee
compensation and the effect of the method used on reported
results. At this time, the Company has not voluntarily adopted
the fair value method of accounting under SFAS No. 123.

In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149,
Amendment of Statement 133 on Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 149 amends and clarifies
financial accounting and reporting for derivative instruments,
including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts and for hedging activities under SFAS No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities. SFAS No. 149 is effective for contracts
entered into or modified after June 30, 2003 and for
hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The
Company is required to adopt the provision of SFAS No. 149
in the third quarter of fiscal 2003 and does not expect the
adoption to have a material impact on the results of operations
or financial position in the foreseeable future.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150,
Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity. SFAS
No. 150 establishes standards for how financial instruments
with characteristics of both liabilities and equity should be
measured and classified and requires that an issuer classify a
financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability.
SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered
into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is
effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning
after June 15, 2003. The Company does not expect the
adoption of SFAS No. 150 to have a material impact on the
results of operations or financial position in the foreseeable
future.
