PACIFIC SUNWEAR OF CALIFORNIA, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
(all amounts in thousands unless otherwise indicated)

NOTE 1  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and
have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by GAAP for complete financial statements. The condensed consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of Pacific Sunwear of California,
Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the Company). All significant
intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Companys fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period, which ends on the
Saturday closest to January 31. Fiscal 2002 is a 52-week period that ends
February 1, 2003. Fiscal 2001 was a 52-week period that ended on February 2,
2002.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting only of normal
recurring entries necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The
preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with GAAP necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated
financial statements and reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from these estimates. The results of operations for the
third quarter and nine months ended November 2, 2002 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending
February 1, 2003. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and notes thereto as of and for the years ended February 2, 2002, February 4,
2001 and January 30, 2000.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current
year presentation.

NOTE 2  Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and marketable securities with
original maturities of three months or less.

NOTE 3  Goodwill and Identified Intangible Assets

On February 3, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, which eliminated the amortization of goodwill and other
intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142,
the Company performed an impairment test of its goodwill and non-amortizing
intangible assets and determined that no impairment existed. Under SFAS No.
142, goodwill and non-amortizing intangible assets will be tested for
impairment at least annually and more frequently if an event occurs which
indicates the goodwill or intangible assets may be impaired.

On February 3, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which superseded previous
guidance on financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal
of long-lived assets and for segments of a business to be disposed of. Upon
adoption of SFAS No. 144, the Company performed an impairment test of its
long-lived assets and determined that no impairment existed. Under SFAS No.
144, long-lived assets, including amortizing intangible assets, will be tested
for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable.

SFAS No. 142 also requires disclosure of the after-tax impact to reported net
income and earnings per share of the adoption of the statement for all periods
presented. The following table recognizes the after-tax impact to the

NOTE 5  Credit Facility

The Company has a credit facility with a bank, which expires March 31, 2004.
The credit facility provides for a $45.0 million line of credit (the Credit
Line) to be used for cash advances, commercial letters of credit and shipside
bonds, and an additional $25.0 million line of credit (the Construction
Facility) which was used to finance the construction of the Companys new
corporate office and distribution center. On August 30, 2002, the Company
repaid the outstanding balance of $25.0 million related to the Construction
Facility using available cash generated from operations. Interest on the
Credit Line is payable monthly at the banks prime rate (4.75% at November 2,
2002) or at optional interest rates that are primarily dependant upon the
London Inter-bank Offered Rates for the time period chosen. The Companys
weighted average interest rate on its outstanding borrowings was 3.65% at
November 2, 2002. At November 2, 2002, the Company had $9.0 million
outstanding under the Credit Line and $10.5 million outstanding in letters of
credit. The credit facility subjects the Company to various restrictive
covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, and prohibits
payment of cash dividends on common stock. At November 2, 2002, the Company
was in compliance with all of the covenants.

shares of common stock in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001,
respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per
common share because the option exercise price was greater than the average
market price of the common stock.

NOTE 9  Corporate Relocation-Related Charges

During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded a non-cash charge
of $2.5 million after tax ($4.2 million pre-tax), or $.08 per basic and diluted
share, related to the disposal of most of the materials handling equipment in
the Companys former distribution center as part of its relocation to its new
distribution facility in

Anaheim, California at the end of fiscal 2001. The $4.2 million pre-tax charge
is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

During the second half of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded a $1.4 million
charge to reserve for rent expense associated with the Companys former
corporate offices, which remain unused after the Companys relocation to its
new corporate offices and distribution center at the end of fiscal 2001. The
current reserve of $1.4 million is approximately the amount of rent expense for
one year, within which time the Company currently believes a tenant will be
identified to sublease the premises. To the extent managements estimates
relating to the Companys ability to sublease these premises within one year
changes, additional charges may be recorded in the future up to the net
remaining obligation under the lease depending on the facts and circumstances
in existence at the time. As of November 2, 2002, the aggregate net remaining
obligation under this lease is approximately $6.95 million.

NOTE 10  Commitments and Contingencies

On September 17, 2001 a former Pacific Sunwear employee filed a putative class
action lawsuit against Pacific Sunwear which alleges that Pacific Sunwear has
not properly paid wages to its California-based store managers, co-managers and
assistant managers working in PacSun stores. The action, Auden v. Pacific
Sunwear of California, Inc., Case No. 01CC00383, was filed in the California
Superior Court for the County of Orange. The complaint in the action seeks
both monetary and injunctive relief. Pacific Sunwear has filed an answer in
the action denying the allegations and raising affirmative defenses. No class
has been certified at this time.

On May 3, 2002 a former Pacific Sunwear employee filed a putative class action
lawsuit against Pacific Sunwear in the California Superior Court for the County
of Orange, alleging claims substantially similar to the claims alleged in the
Auden case described above. In the case, Adams v. Pacific Sunwear of
California, Inc., Case No. 02CC00120, the plaintiff alleges that Pacific
Sunwear has not properly paid wages to its California store managers and
co-managers working in d.e.m.o. stores. The complaint in the action seeks
monetary and injunctive relief. Pacific Sunwear has filed an answer in the
action denying the allegations and raising affirmative defenses. No class has
been certified at this time.

The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to its
business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation will not
have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or financial
condition of the Company.

NOTE 11  New Accounting Pronouncements

In June, 2002 the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities, which addresses financial accounting and
reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supercedes
Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 94-3, Liability Recognition for
Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity
(including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). SFAS No. 146 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 as defined in EITF 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entitys
commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the liability
should initially be measured and recorded at fair value. The Company will
adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 146 for exit or disposal activities that are
initiated after December 31, 2002.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONS

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the
reported revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results
could differ from these estimates. The accounting policies that the Company
believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating
reported financial results include the following:

Revenue Recognition- Sales are recognized upon purchase by customers at the
Companys retail store locations or through the Companys website. The Company
has recorded reserves to estimate sales returns by customers based on
historical sales return results. Actual return rates have historically been
within managements expectations and the reserves established. However, in the
unlikely event that the actual rate of sales returns by customers increased
significantly, the Companys operational results could be adversely affected.

Inventory Valuation- Merchandise inventories are stated at the lower of cost
(first-in, first-out method) or market. Cost is determined using the retail
inventory method. At any one time, inventories include items that have been
marked down to managements best estimate of their fair market value.
Management bases the decision to mark down merchandise based upon the age of
the item and its current rate of sale. To the extent that management estimates
differ from actual results, additional markdowns may have to be recorded, which
could reduce the Companys gross margins and operating results. The Companys
success is largely dependent upon its ability to gauge the fashion tastes of
its customers and provide merchandise that satisfies customer demand. Any
inability to provide appropriate merchandise in sufficient quantities in a
timely manner could increase future markdown rates.

Corporate Rent Reserve- During the second half of fiscal 2001, the Company
recorded a $1.4 million charge to reserve for rent expense associated with the
Companys former corporate offices, which remain unused after the Companys
relocation to its new corporate offices and distribution center at the end of
fiscal 2001. The current reserve of $1.4 million is approximately the amount
of rent expense for one year, within which time the Company currently believes
a tenant will be identified to sublease the premises. To the extent
managements estimates relating to the Companys ability to sublease these
premises within one year changes, additional charges may be recorded in the
future up to the net remaining obligation under the lease depending on the
facts and circumstances in existence at the time. As of November 2, 2002, the
aggregate net remaining obligation under this lease was approximately $6.95
million.

Litigation- The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental
to its business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation
will not have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or
financial condition of the Company and, from time to time, may make provisions
for potential litigation losses. Depending on the actual outcome of pending
litigation, charges in excess of any provisions could be recorded in the future
which may have an adverse affect on the Companys operating results.

The thirteen weeks ended November 2, 2002 (third quarter) as compared to the
thirteen weeks ended November 4, 2001 (third quarter)

Net Sales

Net sales increased to $228.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from
$183.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001, an increase of $45.2
million, or 24.7%. Of this $45.2 million increase, $19.6 million was
attributable to a 11.7% increase in comparable store net sales in the third
quarter of fiscal 2002 as compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2001, $15.4
million was attributable to net sales generated by 78 new stores opened in
fiscal 2002 and not yet included in the comparable store base, $7.1 million was
attributable to net sales generated by 46 new stores opened in fiscal 2001 and
not yet included in the comparable store base and $4.7 million was attributable
to other non-comparable store net sales. Offsetting these increases was a $1.6
million decrease attributable to the closing of nine and six stores during
fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, respectively. Other non-comparable store net
sales consist primarily of sales from stores that have been expanded or
relocated and not yet included in the comparable store base as well as
merchandise sold over the internet. Of the 11.7% increase in comparable store
net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2002, PacSun and PacSun Outlet
comparable store net sales increased 11.6% and d.e.m.o. comparable store net
sales increased 12.5%. The increase in comparable store net sales within
PacSun and PacSun Outlet was primarily attributable to increases in comparable
store net sales of footwear, juniors, accessories and, to a lesser extent,
young mens merchandise. The increase in comparable store net sales within
d.e.m.o. was primarily attributable to increases in comparable store net sales
of juniors and accessories merchandise. Stores are deemed comparable stores on
the first day of the first month following the one-year anniversary of their
opening or expansion/relocation. Retail prices of the Companys merchandise
remained relatively unchanged in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 compared to
the third quarter of fiscal 2001 and had no significant impact on the net sales
increase for the third quarter of fiscal 2002.

Gross Margin

Gross margin, after buying, distribution and occupancy costs, increased to
$78.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $60.8 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2001, an increase of $18.1 million, or 29.8%. As a
percentage of net sales, gross margin was 34.6% for the third quarter of fiscal
2002 compared to 33.2% for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Of this 1.4%
increase, .8% was due to a decrease in occupancy costs as a percentage of net
sales, primarily due to the 11.7% comparable store net sales increase, .4% was
due to a decrease in distribution costs as a percentage of net sales, primarily
due to a decrease in freight and payroll expenses as a

percentage of net sales and .3% was due to a decrease in buying costs as a
percentage of net sales, primarily due to leveraging these costs over a higher
sales base. Offsetting these increases was a .1% decrease in net merchandise
margins as a percentage of net sales due to a higher markdown rate partially
offset by a higher initial markup.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $53.0 million for the
third quarter of fiscal 2002 from $46.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal
2001, an increase of $6.5 million, or 14.0%. These expenses decreased to 23.2%
as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from 25.4% in
the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Of this 2.2% net decrease as a percentage of
net sales, 1.2% was attributable to decreased advertising expenses as a
percentage of sales, primarily due to the elimination of television advertising
and a sports game sponsorship in fiscal 2002, .7% was attributable to a
decrease in store payroll expenses as a percentage of net sales, primarily due
to the 11.7% comparable store net sales increase, .5% was attributable to a
decrease in store closing expenses as a percentage of net sales and .1% was due
to a decrease in other direct store selling expenses as a percentage of net
sales. Offsetting these decreases was a .3% increase in general and
administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $9.9 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002
compared to $5.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. The effective
income tax rate was 38.4% in each of the third quarters of fiscal 2002 and
fiscal 2001.

The thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2002 (nine months) as compared to the
thirty-nine weeks ended November 4, 2001 (nine months)

Net Sales

Net sales increased to $580.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2002
from $477.2 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2001, an increase of
$103.6 million, or 21.7%. Of this $103.6 million increase, $40.1 million was
attributable to net sales generated by 124 new stores opened in fiscal 2001
during the time that they were not yet included in the comparable store base,
$30.7 million was attributable to a 7.1% increase in comparable store net sales
in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 compared to the first nine months of
fiscal 2001, $29.0 million was attributable to net sales generated by 78 new
stores opened in fiscal 2002 and not yet included in the comparable store base,
and $8.4 million was attributable to other non-comparable store net sales.
Offsetting these increases was a $4.6 million decrease attributable to the
closing of nine and six stores during fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001,
respectively. Other non-comparable store net sales consist primarily of sales
from stores that have been expanded or relocated and not yet included in the
comparable store base as well as merchandise sold over the internet. Of the
7.1% increase in comparable store net sales in the first nine months of fiscal
2002, PacSun and PacSun Outlet comparable store net sales increased 8.6% and
d.e.m.o. comparable store net sales increased 5.3%. The increase in comparable
store net sales within PacSun and PacSun Outlet was primarily attributable to
increases in comparable store net sales of footwear, juniors, accessories and,
to a lesser extent, young mens merchandise. The increase in comparable store
net sales within d.e.m.o. was primarily attributable to increases in comparable
store net sales of juniors and accessories. Stores are deemed comparable
stores on the first day of the first month following the one-year anniversary
of their opening or expansion/relocation. Retail prices of the Companys
merchandise remained relatively unchanged in the first nine months of fiscal
2002 compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2001 and had no significant
impact on the net sales increase for the first nine months of fiscal 2002.

Gross Margin

Gross margin, after buying, distribution and occupancy costs, increased to
$188.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $150.9 million for
the first nine months of fiscal 2001, an increase of $37.8 million, or 25.0%.
As a percentage of net sales, gross margin was 32.5% for the first nine months
of fiscal 2002 compared to 31.6% for the first nine months of fiscal 2001. Of
this .9% increase as a percentage of net sales, .4% was due to a decrease in
buying costs as a percentage of net sales, primarily due to leveraging these
costs over a higher sales

base, .3% was due to a decrease in distribution costs as a percentage of net
sales, primarily due to reduced freight and payroll expenses as a percentage of
net sales and .2% was due to an increase in net merchandise margins as a
percentage of net sales due to a higher initial markup partially offset by a
higher markdown rate.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $145.1 million for
the first nine months of fiscal 2002 from $129.5 million for the first nine
months of fiscal 2001, an increase of $15.6 million, or 12.0%. These expenses
decreased to 25.0% as a percentage of net sales in the first nine months of
fiscal 2002 from 27.1% in the first nine months of fiscal 2001. Of this 2.1%
net decrease as a percentage of net sales, 1.2% was attributable to decreased
advertising expenses as a percentage of net sales, primarily due to the
elimination of television advertising and a sports game sponsorship in fiscal
2002, .7% was due to a decrease in store closing expenses as a percentage of
net sales and .4% was due to a decrease in store payroll expenses as a
percentage of net sales, primarily due to the 7.1% comparable store net sales
increase. Store closing expenses were higher in fiscal 2001 due to the
non-cash pre-tax charge of $4.2 million related to the disposal of most of the
materials handling equipment in the Companys former distribution center as
part of its relocation to its new distribution facility in Anaheim, California
at the end of fiscal 2001. Offsetting these decreases was a .2% increase in
other direct store selling and general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of net sales.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was $16.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2002
compared to $8.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2001. The
effective income tax rate was 38.4% in each of the first nine months of fiscal
2002 and fiscal 2001.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has financed its operations from internally generated cash flow,
short-term and long-term borrowings and equity financing. The Companys
primary capital requirements have been for the construction of new stores,
remodeling, expansion, or relocation of selected stores, financing of
inventories, and, in fiscal 2001, construction of the Companys new corporate
offices and distribution center.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine months of fiscal
2002 was $22.3 million as compared to $12.2 million for the first nine months
of fiscal 2001. This $10.1 million increase in cash provided by operations was
primarily attributable to an increase in net income of $13.1 million, an
increase in accrued liabilities of $6.4 million, an increase in depreciation of
$5.0 million, and a decrease in accounts receivable of $2.5 million, offset by
an increase in inventories of $5.2 million, a decrease in accounts payable of
$4.3 million, a decrease in accrued income taxes and deferred income taxes of
$3.8 million, a decrease in losses on the disposal of property and equipment of
$3.4 million and other items netting to a decrease in cash provided of $.2
million. Working capital at November 2, 2002 was $82.1 million compared to
$78.9 million at February 2, 2002, an increase of $3.2 million. The $3.2
million increase in working capital was primarily due to an increase in
inventory net of accounts payable of $44.5 million and other items netting to
an increase in working capital of $.9 million, offset by a decrease in cash of
$23.3 million primarily due to the Companys repayment of the $25.0 million
Construction Facility, an increase in accrued liabilities of $9.9 million and
an increase in short-term borrowings under the Companys line of credit of $9.0
million. Inventories at November 2, 2002 were $150.0 million compared to
$102.5 million at February 2, 2002, an increase of $47.5 million. This
increase was primarily related to opening 69 net new stores and
expanding/relocating 26 stores with more than 50% larger average square footage
than their previous locations during fiscal 2002. The Companys average store
inventories vary throughout the year and increase in advance of the peak
selling periods of spring break, back-to-school and Christmas.

Net cash used in investing activities was $30.1 million for property and
equipment for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 compared to $64.8 million
for property and equipment for the first nine months of fiscal 2001. Of the
$30.1 million of net cash used for investment in property and equipment in the
nine months of fiscal 2002, $28.0 million was used for new and existing stores
and $2.1 million was used for other capital expenditures including computer
hardware and software. Property and equipment expenditures were significantly
lower in the first nine

months of fiscal 2002 as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2001
primarily due to the Companys construction of its new corporate facilities
during fiscal 2001.

Net cash used by financing activities for the first nine months of fiscal 2002
was $15.3 million compared to cash provided of $27.0 million for the first nine
months of fiscal 2001. Of the $15.3 million of net cash used by financing
activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2002, $25.9 million was due to
the repayment of the Companys $25.0 million Construction Facility and
principal payments under other capital lease and long-term debt obligations of
$.9 million, offset by short-term borrowings under the Companys line of credit
of $9.0 million and proceeds received from the exercise of stock options of
$1.6 million.

The Company has a credit facility with a bank which expires March 31, 2004.
The credit facility provides for a $45.0 million line of credit (the Credit
Line) to be used for cash advances, commercial letters of credit and shipside
bonds, and an additional $25.0 million line of credit (the Construction
Facility) which was used to finance the construction of the Companys new
corporate office and distribution center. On August 30, 2002, the Company
repaid the outstanding balance of $25.0 million related to the Construction
Facility using available cash generated from operations. Interest on the
Credit Line is payable monthly at the banks prime rate (4.75% at November 2,
2002) or at optional interest rates that are primarily dependant upon the
London Inter-bank Offered Rates for the time period chosen. The Companys
weighted average interest rate on its outstanding borrowings was 3.65% at
November 2, 2002. At November 2, 2002, the Company had $9.0 million
outstanding under the Credit Line and $10.5 million outstanding in letters of
credit. The credit facility subjects the Company to various restrictive
covenants, including maintenance of certain financial ratios, and prohibits
payment of cash dividends on common stock. At November 2, 2002, the Company
was in compliance with all of the covenants.

During the remainder of fiscal 2002, the Company plans to open approximately
six net new stores, of which approximately five will be PacSun stores and
approximately one will be a PacSun Outlet stores. The Company also plans to
expand or relocate approximately two existing smaller stores during the
remainder of fiscal 2002. The Company estimates that capital expenditures
during the remainder of fiscal 2002 will be approximately $9 million, of which
approximately $8 million will be for new and existing stores and approximately
$1 million will be used for other capital expenditures, including computer
hardware and software. The Company plans to open approximately 50 net new
stores during the year ended January 31, 2004 (fiscal 2003).

The Company reviews the operating performance of its stores on an ongoing basis
to determine which stores, if any, to expand, relocate or close. Most leases
contain cancellation or kick-out clauses in the Companys favor that relieve
the Company of any future obligation under a lease if specified sales levels
are not achieved by a specified date. The Company closed nine stores in the
first nine months of fiscal 2002 and six stores in fiscal 2001. The Company
anticipates closing approximately one additional store in the remainder of
fiscal 2002.

The Company leases all of its retail store locations under operating leases.
The Company also leases equipment from time to time under capital leases.
Also, at any time, the Company is contingently liable for open letters of
credit with foreign suppliers of merchandise. For details concerning the
Companys financial commitments under these arrangements, please see Note 6 to
the consolidated financial statements contained in the Companys Form 10-K for
the year ended February 2, 2002.

The Company relies primarily on internally generated cash flows to finance its
operations. In addition, to the extent necessary, the Company relies on its
credit facility to finance operations and provide additional resources for
capital expenditures. Management believes that the Companys working capital,
cash flows from operating activities and credit facility will be sufficient to
meet the Companys operating and capital expenditure requirements for the next
twelve months.

The Companys success is largely dependent upon its ability to gauge the
fashion tastes of its customers and provide merchandise that satisfies customer
demand. Any inability to provide appropriate merchandise in sufficient
quantities in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the
Companys business, operating results, cash flows from operations and financial
condition. Any economic downturn that affects the retail industry as a whole
could also adversely affect the Companys business, operating results, cash
flows from operations and financial condition.

A significant decrease in the Companys operating results could adversely
affect the Companys ability to maintain required financial ratios under the
Companys credit facility. Required financial ratios include total liabilities
to tangible net worth ratio, limitations on capital expenditures and
achievement of certain rolling four-quarter EBITDA requirements. If these
financial ratios are not maintained, the bank will have the option to require
immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the credit facility. The
most likely result would require the Company to either renegotiate certain
terms of the credit agreement, obtain a waiver from the bank, or obtain a new
credit agreement with another bank, which may contain different terms.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities  In June,
2002 the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit
or Disposal Activities, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for
costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supercedes Emerging
Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain
Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including
Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring). SFAS No. 146 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
as defined in EITF 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entitys commitment to
an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the liability should
initially be measured and recorded at fair value. The Company will adopt the
provisions of SFAS No. 146 for exit or disposal activities that are initiated
after December 31, 2002.

Inflation

The Company does not believe that inflation has had a material effect on the
results of operations in the recent past. There can be no assurance that the
Companys business will not be affected by inflation in the future.

Seasonality and Quarterly Results

The Companys business is seasonal by nature, with the Christmas and
back-to-school periods historically accounting for the largest percentage of
annual net sales. The Companys first quarter historically accounts for the
smallest percentage of annual net sales. In each of fiscal 2001 and fiscal
2000, excluding sales generated by new and relocated/expanded stores, the
Christmas and back-to-school periods together accounted for approximately 34%
of the Companys annual net sales and a higher percentage of the Companys
operating income. In fiscal 2001, excluding net sales generated by new and
relocated/expanded stores, approximately 45% of the Companys annual net sales
occurred in the nine months of the fiscal year and 55% in the second half. The
Companys quarterly results of operations may also fluctuate significantly as a
result of a variety of factors, including the timing of store openings; the
amount of revenue contributed by new stores; the timing and level of markdowns;
the timing of store closings, expansions and relocations; competitive factors;
and general economic conditions.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Risk Factors

This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Sections 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Company intends that such
forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors created thereby. The
Company is hereby providing cautionary statements identifying important factors
that could cause the Companys actual results to differ materially from those
projected in forward-looking statements of the Company herein. Any statements
that express, or involve discussions as to expectations, beliefs, plans,
objectives, assumptions, future events or performance (often, but not always
through the use of words or phrases such as will result, expects to, will
continue, anticipates, plans, intends, estimated, projects and
outlook) are not historical facts and may be forward-looking and,
accordingly, such statements involve estimates, assumptions and uncertainties
which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in
the forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in
this report are based on information available to the Company as of the date
hereof, and the Company assumes no obligation to update or revise any such
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that occur after
such statements are made. Such uncertainties include, among others, the
following factors:

Merchandising/Fashion Sensitivity.The Companys success is largely dependent
upon its ability to gauge the fashion tastes of its customers and to provide
merchandise that satisfies customer demand in a timely manner. The Companys
failure to anticipate, identify or react appropriately in a timely manner to
changes in fashion trends could have a material adverse effect on the Companys
business, financial condition and results of operations. Misjudgments or
unanticipated fashion changes could also have a material adverse effect on the
Companys image with its customers.

Private Label Merchandise.Sales from private label merchandise accounted for
approximately 34% and 36% of net sales in fiscal 2001 and fiscal 2000,
respectively. The Company may increase the percentage of net sales in private
label merchandise in the future, although there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to achieve increases in private label merchandise sales as
a percentage of net sales. Because the Companys private label merchandise
generally carries higher merchandise margins than its other merchandise, the
Companys failure to anticipate, identify and react in a timely manner to
fashion trends with its private label merchandise, particularly if the
percentage of net sales derived from private label merchandise increases, may
have a material adverse affect on the Companys business, financial condition
and results of operations.

Fluctuations in Comparable Store Net Sales Results.The Companys comparable
store net sales results have fluctuated significantly in the past, on a
monthly, quarterly and annual basis, and are expected to continue to fluctuate
in the future. A variety of factors affect the Companys comparable store net
sales results, including changes in fashion trends, changes in the Companys
merchandise mix, calendar shifts of holiday periods, actions by competitors,
weather conditions and general economic conditions. The Companys comparable
store net sales results for any particular fiscal month, fiscal quarter or
fiscal year in the future may decrease. As a result of these or other factors,
the Companys future comparable store net sales results are likely to have a
significant effect on the market price of the Companys common stock.

Expansion and Management of Growth.PacSuns continued growth depends to a
significant degree on its ability to open and operate stores on a profitable
basis and on managements ability to manage the Companys planned expansion.
During the remainder of fiscal 2002, the Company plans to open approximately
six net new stores, of which approximately five will be PacSun stores and
approximately one will be a PacSun Outlet store. The Company plans to open
approximately 50 net new stores during fiscal 2003. The Companys planned
expansion is dependent upon a number of factors, including the ability of the
Company to locate and obtain favorable store sites, negotiate acceptable lease
terms, obtain adequate supplies of merchandise and hire and train qualified
management level and other employees. Factors beyond the Companys control may
also affect the Companys ability to expand, including general economic and
business conditions affecting consumer spending. There can be no assurance
that the Company will achieve its planned expansion or that such expansion will
be profitable nor that the Company will be able to manage its growth
effectively. Any failure to manage growth could have a material adverse effect
on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations.

Reliance on Key Personnel.The continued success of the Company is dependent
to a significant degree upon the services of its key personnel, particularly
its executive officers. The loss of the services of any member of senior
management could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business,
financial condition and results of operations. The Companys success in the
future will also be dependent upon the Companys ability to attract and retain
qualified personnel. The Companys inability to attract and retain qualified
personnel in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Companys
business, financial condition and results of operations.

Dependence on Single Distribution Facility.The Companys distribution
functions for all of its stores and for internet sales are handled from a
single facility in Anaheim, California. Any significant interruption in the
operation of the distribution facility due to natural disasters, accidents,
system failures or other unforeseen causes would have a material adverse effect
on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations.
There can be no assurance that the Companys new corporate office and
distribution center will be adequate to support the Companys future growth.

Stores in the d.e.m.o. Format.Comparable store net sales results for d.e.m.o.
stores did not meet managements expectations during the first half of fiscal
2002 (+.9%) nor during fiscal 2001 (+1.6%). Although comparable store net
sales results improved significantly for d.e.m.o. stores during the third
quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company is not certain that d.e.m.o. stores will
achieve acceptable levels of sales or profitability in the future. Continued
disappointing sales results for d.e.m.o. stores may have a material adverse
affect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of operations
and may result in a greater number of store closings.

Internet Sales. The Companys internet operations are subject to numerous
risks, including unanticipated operating problems, reliance on third party
computer hardware and software providers, system failures and the need to
invest in additional computer systems. There can be no assurance that the
internet operations will achieve sales and profitability levels that justify
the Companys investment therein. The internet operations also involve other
risks that could have a material adverse effect on the Company, including (i)
the failure to reach acceptable levels of profitability within the foreseeable
future, (ii) difficulties with hiring, retention and training of key personnel
to conduct the Companys internet operations, (iii) diversion of sales from
PacSun stores, (iv) rapid technological change, (v) liability for online
content and (vi) risks related to the failure of the computer systems that
operate the web site and its related support systems, including computer
viruses, telecommunication failures and electronic break-ins and similar
disruptions. In addition, the internet operations involve risks which are
beyond the Companys control that could have a material adverse effect on the
Company, including (i) price competition involving the items the Company
intends to sell, (ii) the entry of the Companys vendors into the internet
business, in direct competition with the Company, (iii) the level of
merchandise returns experienced by the Company, (iv) governmental regulation,
(v) online security breaches, (vi) credit card fraud and (vii) competition and
general economic conditions and economic conditions specific to the internet,
online commerce and the apparel industry.

Volatility of Stock Price.The market price of the Companys common stock has
fluctuated substantially in the past and there can be no assurance that the
market price of the common stock will not continue to fluctuate significantly.
Future announcements or management discussions concerning the Company or its
competitors, internet sales results, d.e.m.o. sales and profitability results,
quarterly variations in operating results or comparable store net sales,
changes in earnings estimates by analysts or changes in accounting policies,
among other factors, could cause the market price of the common stock to
fluctuate substantially. In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme
price and volume volatility in recent years. This volatility has had a
substantial effect on the market prices of securities of many smaller public
companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the
specific companies.

Economic Impact of Recent Terrorist Attacks.The majority of the Companys
stores are located in regional shopping malls. In response to the terrorist
attacks of September 11, 2001, security is being heightened in public areas.
Any further threat of terrorist attacks or actual terrorist events,
particularly in public areas, could lead to lower customer traffic in regional
shopping malls. In addition, local authorities or mall management could close
regional shopping malls in response to any immediate security concern. For
example, on September 11, 2001, a substantial number of the Companys stores
were closed early due to closure of the malls in response to the

17

##### Table of Contents



terrorist attacks. Mall closures, as well as lower customer traffic due to
security concerns, could result in decreased sales that would have a material
adverse affect on the Companys business, financial condition and results of
operations.

Reliance on Foreign Sources of Production.The Company purchases merchandise
directly in foreign markets for its private label brands. In addition, the
Company purchases merchandise from domestic vendors, some of which is
manufactured overseas. The Company does not have any long-term merchandise
supply contracts and its imports are subject to existing or potential duties,
tariffs and quotas. The Company faces competition from other companies for
production facilities and import quota capacity. The Company also faces a
variety of other risks generally associated with doing business in foreign
markets and importing merchandise from abroad, such as: (i) political
instability; (ii) imposition of new legislation relating to import quotas that
may limit the quantity of goods which may be imported into the United States
from countries in a region that the Company does business; (iii) imposition of
duties, taxes, and other charges on imports; and (iv) local business practice
and political issues, including issues relating to compliance with domestic or
international labor standards which may result in adverse publicity. New
initiatives may be proposed that may have an impact on the trading status of
certain countries and may include retaliatory duties or other trade sanctions
which, if enacted, would increase the cost of products purchased from suppliers
in countries that the Company does business with. The inability of the Company
to rely on its foreign sources of production due to any of the factors listed
above could have a material adverse affect on the Companys business, financial
condition and results of operations.

Economic Impact of Recent Dock Dispute.In October 2002, President Bush signed
an executive order pursuant to the Taft-Hartley Act that instituted an 80-day
cooling off period in the labor negotiations between dock workers and dock
management at the ports of entry on the United States west coast. Although
recent indications are that an agreement will be reached pending a vote of the
labor union, there can be no assurance that the labor dispute will be resolved
by the end of the cooling off period. If another work stoppage occurs,
delivery of the Companys foreign-sourced merchandise could be adversely
impacted and result in a material adverse affect on the Companys business,
financial condition and results of operations.

Credit Facility Financial Covenants.A significant decrease in the Companys
operating results could adversely affect the Companys ability to maintain
required financial ratios under the Companys credit facility. Required
financial ratios include total liabilities to tangible net worth ratio,
limitations on capital expenditures and achievement of certain rolling
four-quarter EBITDA requirements. If these financial ratios are not
maintained, the bank will have the option to require immediate repayment of all
amounts outstanding under the credit facility. The most likely result would
require the Company to either renegotiate certain terms of the credit
agreement, obtain a waiver from the bank, or obtain a new credit agreement with
another bank, which may contain different terms.

Stock Options.A number of publicly-traded companies have recently announced
that they will begin expensing stock option grants to employees. In addition,
the Financial Accounting Standards Boards and the Securities and Exchange
Commission have indicated that possible rule changes requiring expensing of
stock options may be adopted in the near future. Currently, the Company
includes such expenses on a pro forma basis in the notes to the Companys
annual financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America but does not include stock option
expenses in the Companys reported financial statements. If accounting
standards are changed to require the Company to expense stock options, the
Companys reported earnings will decrease and its stock price could decline.

Litigation.The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental
to its business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation
will not have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or
financial condition of the Company. However, managements assessment of the
Companys current litigation could change in light of the discovery of facts
with respect to legal actions pending against the Company not presently known
to the Company or determinations by judges, juries or other finders of fact
which do not accord with managements evaluation of the possible liability or
outcome of such litigation.

The Company cautions that the risk factors described above could cause actual
results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any
forward-looking statements of the Company made by or on behalf of the Company.
Further, management cannot assess the impact of each such factor on the
Companys business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of
factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in
any forward-looking statements.




QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

To the extent the Company borrows under its credit facility, the Company is
exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates. At November 2,
2002, $9.0 million in borrowings were outstanding under the Companys credit
facility. Based on the weighted average interest rate of 3.65% on the
Companys credit facility during the first nine months ended November 2, 2002,
if interest rates on the credit facility were to increase by 10%, and to the
extent borrowings were outstanding, for every $1.0 million outstanding on the
Companys credit facility, net income would be reduced by approximately $2,300
per year. A discussion of the Companys accounting policies for financial
instruments and further disclosures relating to financial instruments is
included in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Nature of
Business in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companys
Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2002. The Company is not a party with
respect to derivative financial instruments.




CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In the 90-day period before the filing of this report, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company (collectively, the
certifying officers) have evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys
disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c)
and 15d-14(c) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).
These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the
information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
by the Commissions rules and forms, and that the information is communicated
to the certifying officers on a timely basis.

The certifying officers concluded, based on their evaluation, that the
Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the Company,
taking into consideration the size and nature of the Companys business and
operations.

No significant changes in the Companys internal controls or in other factors
were detected that could significantly affect the Companys internal controls
subsequent to the date when the internal controls were evaluated.

PART II-OTHER INFORMATION




Item 1  Legal Proceedings

On September 17, 2001 a former Pacific Sunwear employee filed a putative class
action lawsuit against Pacific Sunwear which alleges that Pacific Sunwear has
not properly paid wages to its California-based store managers, co-managers and
assistant managers working in PacSun stores. The action, Auden v. Pacific
Sunwear of California, Inc., Case No. 01CC00383, was filed in the California
Superior Court for the County of Orange. The complaint in the action seeks
both monetary and injunctive relief. Pacific Sunwear has filed an answer in
the action denying the allegations and raising affirmative defenses. No class
has been certified at this time.

On May 3, 2002 a former Pacific Sunwear employee filed a putative class action
lawsuit against Pacific Sunwear in the California Superior Court for the County
of Orange, alleging claims substantially similar to the claims alleged in the
Auden case described above. In the case, Adams v. Pacific Sunwear of
California, Inc., Case No. 02CC00120, the plaintiff alleges that Pacific
Sunwear has not properly paid wages to its California store managers and
co-managers working in d.e.m.o. stores. The complaint in the action seeks
monetary and injunctive relief. Pacific Sunwear has filed an answer in the
action denying the allegations and raising affirmative defenses. No class has
been certified at this time.

The Company is involved from time to time in litigation incidental to its
business. Management believes that the outcome of current litigation will not
have a material adverse effect upon the results of operations or financial
condition of the Company.
