**PART I

ITEM 1.         BUSINESS**History**

 Duckwall-ALCO Stores, Inc., (the "Company" or "Registrant"), wasfounded as a general merchandising operation in 1901 in Abilene, Kansas by A. L. Duckwall.  From its founding until 1968, the Company conducted its retail operations as small variety or "dime" stores.  In 1968, the Company followed an emergingtrend to discount retailing when it opened its first ALCO discount store.   In 1991, the Company adopted its current business strategy that focuses on under-served markets that have no direct competition from another full-line discountretailer.  This strategy includes opening either an ALCO discount store or a Duckwall variety store, depending upon the market size.  As of April 27, 2001, the Company operates 264 retail stores located in the central United States, consistingof 174 ALCO retail discount stores and 90 Duckwall variety stores.
 The Company was incorporated on July 2, 1915 under the laws of Kansas.  The Company's executive offices are located at 401 Cottage Street, Abilene,Kansas  67410-2832, and its telephone number is (785) 263-3350. 
**General**
 The Company is a regional retailer operating 264 stores in 20 states in the central UnitedStates.  The Company's strategy is to target smaller markets not served by other regional or national full-line retail discount chains and to provide the most convenient access to retail shopping within each market.  The Company's ALCOdiscount stores offer a full line of merchandise consisting of approximately 35,000 items, including automotive, candy, crafts, domestics, electronics, fabrics, furniture, hardware, health and beauty aids, housewares, jewelry, ladies', men's andchildren's apparel and shoes, pre-recorded music and video, sporting goods, seasonal items, stationery and toys.  The Company's smaller Duckwall variety stores offer a more limited selection of merchandise.
 Of the Company's 174 ALCO discount stores, 133 stores are located in communities that do not have another full-line discounter.  The Company intends tocontinue its strategy of opening ALCO stores in markets that do not have other full-line discount retailers and where the opening of an ALCO store is likely to be preemptive to the entry by other full-line discount competitors in the market.  TheALCO discount stores account for 91% of the Company's net sales. While the current ALCO stores average 20,900 square feet of selling space, the Company's store expansion program is primarily directed toward stores with a design prototype ofapproximately 18,000 square feet of selling space ("Class 18 Stores"), which, based on the Company's experience, has been a design that maximizes return on investment for newly-constructed stores.
 The Company's 90 Duckwall variety stores are primarily located in communities of less than 2,500 residents and are designed to act as the primary convenienceretailer in these smaller communities.  These stores, which account for the remaining 9% of the Company's net sales, average approximately 5,700 square feet of selling space and offer approximately 12,000 items.  Operating Duckwallstores offers the Company the opportunity to serve the needs of a community that would not support a full-line retail discount store with a reduced investment per store.
 All of the Company's discount and variety stores are serviced by the Company's 352,000 square foot distribution center in Abilene, Kansas.
**Business Strategy**
The Company believes that its improved operating performance and financial condition over the last fivefiscal years is the result of the focused execution of a business strategy that includes the following key components:
*Markets:*The Company intends to open ALCO stores in towns with populations of typically less than 5,000 that are in trade areas with populations of less than16,000 where:  (1) there is no direct competition from national or regional full-line discount retailers; (2) economic and demographic criteria indicate the market is able to commercially support a discount retailer; and (3) the opening of an ALCOstore would significantly reduce the likelihood of the entry into such market by another full-line discount retailer.  This key component of the Company's strategy has guided the Company in both its opening of new stores and in its closing ofexisting stores.  Since 1991, the Company has opened 119 ALCO discount stores (with an approximate average size of 18,500 square feet of selling space) and 87 Duckwall variety stores. Except for eight stores, each of the new ALCO and Duckwall stores was opened in a primary market in which there was no direct competition from a national or regional full-line discount retailer.
 
*Market Selection:The Company has a detailed process that it uses to analyze under-served marketswhich includes examining factors such as distance from competition, trade area,disposable income and retail sales levels. Markets that are determined to besizable enough to support an ALCO or a Duckwall store, and that have no directcompetition from another full-line discount retailer, are examined closely andeventually selected or passed over by the Company's experienced management team.

*Store Expansion:*  The Company's expansion program is designed around the prototype Class 18 Store.  Thisprototype details for each new store plans for shelf space, merchandise presentation, store items to be offered, parking, storage, as well as other store design considerations.  The 18,000 square feet of selling space is large enough to permit a fullline of the Company's merchandise, while minimizing capital expenditures, required labor costs and general overhead costs.  The Company will also consider opportunities in acceptable markets to open ALCO stores in available space in buildingsalready constructed.  The Company's expansion strategy for its Duckwall variety stores is based on opportunities presented to the Company in and by smaller communities where there is a need and where existing premises are available for lease witha relatively low cost and which provide the Company with limited downside exposure. 

*Technology:*  The Company is continually improving its management information technologies to support the operationof the Company.  In fiscal 1999, the Company implemented a new system for merchandise administration and distribution.  In fiscal 2000, the Company completed the roll-out of new point-of-sale (POS) store software that has extended the life andcapabilities of its POS hardware.  In conjunction with this roll-out of POS software, the stores  received radio frequency hand held devices to allow for additional operating efficiencies.  The Company also devoted resources to identify andfix or replace software and hardware that was not year 2000 compliant.  In fiscal 2001, the Company continued to devote resources to development of long-term projects that will improve operational efficiencies and performance.

*Advertising and Promotion:*  The Company utilizes full-color photography advertising circulars of 8 to 28 pagesdistributed by insertion into newspapers or by direct mail where newspaper service is inadequate.  During fiscal 2001, these circulars were distributed 36 times in ALCO markets.  In its Duckwall markets, the Company advertises approximately 13times a year during seasonal promotions.  The Company's marketing program is designed to create an awareness, on the part of its identified target customer base, of the Company's comprehensive selection of merchandise and its competitivepricing.  During fiscal 1999, the Company began market research and planning for the initial roll-out in fiscal 2000, of its new pricing strategy "New Low Prices Everyday" (NLPE).  This strategy hasbenefited customers by offering sharper prices everyday on products that typically would have been subject to promotional pricing and markdowns.  NLPE will also reduce the Company's reliance on advertising circulars and promotions to drive trafficinto its stores.  During fiscal 2002, the Company will distribute approximately 36 circulars in ALCO markets, and advertise approximately 13 times during seasonal promotions in the Duckwallstores.

*Store Environment:*  The Company's stores are open, clean, bright and offer a pleasant atmosphere withdisciplined product presentation, attractive displays and efficient check-out procedures.  The Company endeavors to staff its stores with courteous, highly motivated, knowledgeable store associates in order to provide a convenient, friendly andenjoyable shopping experience.

**Store Development** 

 The Company plans to open approximately 4 ALCO stores during fiscal year 2002, and a  minimum of 4 ALCO stores during each of the fiscal years 2003 and 2004. 

The Company's strategy regarding store development is to increase sales and profitability at existing stores by continually refining the merchandising mix and improvingoperating efficiencies, and through new store openings in the Company's targeted base of under-served markets in the central United States.  Since fiscal 1995, the Company has opened a total of 87 ALCO stores with an average selling area ofapproximately 18,700 square feet, and 67 Duckwall stores. The following table summarizes the Company's growth during the past three fiscal years: ****Year-to-Date**************1999************2000************2001************2002**************ALCO************DUCKWALL************ALCO************DUCKWALL************ALCO************DUCKWALL************ALCO************DUCKWALL******Stores Opened16201295010Stores Closed22544313Net New Stores1418751(3)0(3)
 

TheCompany intends to utilize the 18,000 square foot store profile for new ALCOstore openings.  Currently, the Company owns 16 ALCO and 2 Duckwalllocations, and leases 158 ALCO and 88 Duckwall store locations.  TheCompany's present intention is to lease all new Duckwall stores.  TheCompany may own some of the ALCO locations, but will, generally try to leasethese store locations.

Before entering a new market with an ALCO or Duckwall store, the Company analyzes and screens available competitive, market, and demographic data to evaluate thesuitability and attractiveness of the potential market.  The process involves an objective review of selection criteria including, among other factors, distance and drive time to discount retail competitors, demographics, retail sales levels,existence and stability of major employers, location of county government and distance from the Company's distribution center.  The screening process also involves a visit by officers of the Company to more subjectively evaluate the potential newsite.  There are currently over 150 communities known by the Company to have met the Company's ALCO and Duckwall initial market selection process.  The Company is in the site selection and/or procurement process in approximately 19 of thosemarkets, each of which has been approved by the Company for a new store location.

 The estimated investment to open a new Class 18 Store is approximately $1.325 million for the land, building, equipment, and inventory.

**Store Environment and Merchandising**

 The Company manages its stores to attractively and conveniently display a full line of merchandise within the confines of the stores' available square footage. Corporate merchandising direction is provided to each ALCO and Duckwall store to ensure a consistent company-wide store presentation.  To facilitate long-term merchandising planning, the Company divides its merchandise into three core categoriesdriven by the Company's customer profile:  primary, secondary, and convenience.  The primary core receives management's primary focus, with a wide assortment of merchandise being placed in the most accessible locations within the storesand receiving significant promotional consideration.  The secondary core consists of categories of merchandise for which the Company maintains a strong assortment that is easily and readily identifiable by its customers.  The convenience coreconsists of categories of merchandise for which ALCO will maintain convenient (but limited) assortments, focusing on key items that are in keeping with customers' expectations for a discount store.  Secondary and convenience cores includemerchandise that the Company feels is important to carry, as the target customer expects to find them within a discount store and they ensure a high level of customer traffic.  The Company continually evaluates and ranks all product lines, shiftingproduct classifications when necessary to reflect the changing demand for products.

**Purchasing**

 Procurement and merchandising of products is directed by the Company's Senior Vice President - Merchandise, who reports to the Company's President.  The SeniorVice President - Merchandise is supported by a staff of three Vice President-  Divisional Merchandise Managers who are each responsible for specific product categories.  The Company employs 22 merchandise buyers and two assistant buyers who each report to a Vice President- Divisional Merchandise Manager.  Buyers are assisted by a management information system that provides them with current price and volume information by SKU, thus allowing them to react quickly with buying andpricing adjustments dictated by customer buying patterns.

 The Company purchases its merchandise from approximately 2,200 suppliers.  The Company generally does not utilize long-term supply contracts.  No single supplieraccounted for more than 5% of the Company's total purchases in fiscal 2001 and competing brand name and private label products are available from other suppliers at competitive prices.  The Company believes that its relationships with itssuppliers are good and that the loss ofany one or more of its suppliers would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. 

**Pricing** Merchandise pricing is done at the corporate level and is essentially the same for all of the ALCO stores, regardless of the level of local competition.  This pricingstrategy, with its promotional activities, is designed to bring consistent value to the customer.  In fiscal 2002, promotions on various items will be offered approximately 36 times through advertising circulars.   Even though the samegeneral pricing and advertising activities are carried out for all ALCO stores, the impact of such activities is significantly different depending upon the level of competition in the market.

 

**Distribution and Transportation**
 The Company operates a 352,000 square foot distribution center in Abilene, Kansas, from which it services each of the 174 ALCO discount stores and 90 Duckwall varietystores.  This distribution center is responsible for distributing approximately 80% of the Company's merchandise, with the balance being delivered directly to the Company's stores by its vendors.  This distribution center ships toeach of the Company's stores once a week, primarily through irregular route common carriers. The Company also utilizes its wholly owned subsidiary, SPD Truck Line, Inc. (the "Subsidiary") for delivery to the stores.  The distribution center isfully integrated into the Company's management information system, allowing the Company to utilize such cost cutting efficiencies as perpetual inventories, safety programs, and employee productivity software.
 The Subsidiary acts as a contract carrier for the Company in transporting goods to and from its stores.  The Subsidiary leases and uses five tractors and 24 trailers forsuch deliveries.
**Management Information Systems**
 Commencing in fiscal 1989, the Company committed significant resources to the purchase and application of available computer hardware and software to its discount retailingoperations with the intent to lower costs, improve customer service and enhance general business planning.
 In general, the Company's merchandising systems are designed to integrate the key retailing functions of seasonal merchandise planning, purchase order management,merchandise distribution, sales information and inventory maintenance and replenishment.  All of the Company's ALCO discount stores have point-of-sale (POS) computer terminals that record certain sales data in a format that can be transmittednightly to the Company's data processing facility where it is used to produce daily and weekly management reports.  In fiscal 1999, the Company implemented a new system for merchandise administration and distribution.  In fiscal 2000, theCompany completed the roll-out of new POS store software that has extended the life and capabilities of its POS hardware.  In conjunction with this roll-out of POS software, the stores  received radio frequency hand held devices to allow foradditional operating efficiencies.* *In fiscal 2001, the Company continued to devote resources to development of long-term projects that will improve operational efficiencies and performance.
 Approximately 800 of the Company's merchandise suppliers currently participate in the Company's electronic data interchanges ("EDI") system, which makes it possible forthe Company to place purchase orders electronically.  When fully implemented, EDI will permit these and additional vendors to transmit invoices and advance shipment notices to the Company and receive sales history and purchase orders from the Company.
**Store Locations**
 As of April 27, 2001, the Company operated 174 ALCO stores in 20 states located in smaller communities in the central United States.  Of the ALCO stores, 16 are owned and158 are operated under real estate leases.  The ALCO stores average approximately 20,900 square feet of selling space, with an additional 5,000 square feet utilized for merchandise processing, temporary storage and administration.  The Companyalso operates 90 Duckwall stores in 11 states, two of which are owned, and 88 of which are leased.  The geographic distribution of the Company's stores is as follows:
 
**Duckwall Stores (90)**Arkansas (1) Colorado (6)Iowa (6)Kansas (37)Missouri (1)Nebraska (8)New Mexico (1)North Dakota (1)Oklahoma (8)South Dakota (3)Texas (18)**ALCO Stores (174)**Arizona (5)Arkansas (6)Colorado (10)Idaho (3)Illinois (8)Indiana (15)Iowa (8) Kansas (25)Minnesota (7)Missouri (3)Nebraska (17)New Mexico (8)North Dakota (7)Ohio (6)Oklahoma (8)South Dakota (8)Texas (23)Utah (3)Wisconsin (1)Wyoming (3)
 

**Competition**
 While the discount retail business in general is highly competitive, the Company's business strategy is to locate its ALCO discount stores in smaller markets where there isno direct competition with larger national or regional full-line discount chains, and where it is believed no such competition is likely to develop.  Accordingly, the Company's primary method of competing is to offer its customers a convenientlylocated store with a wide range of merchandise at discount prices in a primary trade area population under 16,000 that does not have a large national or regional full-line discount store.  The Company believes that trade area size is a significantdeterrent to larger national and regional full-line discount chains.  Duckwall variety stores are located in very small markets, and  like the ALCO stores, emphasize the convenience of location to the primary customer base.
 In the discount retail business in general, price, merchandise selection, merchandise quality, advertising and customer service are all important aspects of competing. The Company encounters direct competition with national full-line discount stores in 29 of its ALCO markets, and another 12 ALCO stores are in direct competition with regional full-line discount stores.** **  The competing regional and national full-line discount retailers are generally larger than the Company and the stores of such competitors in theCompany's markets are substantially larger, have a somewhat wider selection of merchandise and are very  price competitive in some lines of merchandise.  Where there are no discount retail stores directly competing with the Company'sALCO stores, the Company's customers nevertheless shop at retail discount stores and other retailers located in regional trade centers, and to that extent the Company competes with such discount stores and retailers.  The Company also competesfor retail sales with mail order companies, specialty retailers, mass merchandisers, dollar stores, manufacturers outlets, and the Internet.  In the 121 Class 18 markets in which the Company operates a store, there is no direct competition from anational or regional full-line discount retailer.

(1)  Effective October 30, 2000, the Company, in response to the Securities andExchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (SAB 101), changed itsmethod of accounting for layaway sales, retroactive to the beginning of theyear.  Previously, the Company recognized revenue on the entire amount oflayaway sales at the time merchandise was placed on layaway.  Under the newmethod, revenue on layaway sales are recognized upon delivery of the merchandiseto the customer.

 

(2)  Effective November 1, 1998, the Company adopted AICPA Statement of Position98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start up Activities, retroactive to thebeginning of the year.  Under the new method, the Company expenses storepreopening costs as incurred rather than over the initial 12-months of a store'soperation.
(3)   The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share, which requires a dual presentation of basic earnings per share (based on the weighted average number of common sharesoutstanding) and diluted earnings per share which reflects the potential dilution that could occur if contracts to issue securities (such as stock options) were exercised.

(4)   "Non-competitive" markets refer to those markets where there is not a national or regional full-line discount store located in the primary market served by the Company. The Company's stores in such non-competitive markets nevertheless face competition from various sources.  See Item 1 "Business-Competition".
(5)  Percentages, as adjusted to a comparable 52 week year, reflect the increase or decrease based upon a comparison of the applicable fiscal year with the immediately preceding fiscal year for stores open during the entirety of both years.

**Results of Operations**

 The following table sets forth, for the fiscal years indicated, the components of the Company's consolidated statements of operations expressed as a percentage of net sales:**Fiscal Year Ended****January 28,****January  30,****January  31,****2001****2000****1999**Net sales100.00%100.00%100.00%   Cost of sales67.166.465.9Gross margin32.933.634.1Selling, general and administrative expenses28.228.128.2Depreciation and amortization1.61.71.6Provision for asset impairment and store closure0.40.1.0Total operating expenses30.229.929.8Income from operations2.73.74.3Interest expense0.81.01.1Earnings before income taxes1.92.73.2Income tax expense0.71.01.2Earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change1.21.72.0Cumulative effect of accounting change, net of tax.0.00.3Net earnings1.20%1.70%1.70%    ===============    
 

**Fiscal 2001 Compared to Fiscal 2000**
Net sales for fiscal 2001 increased $10.1 million or 2.7% to $390.6 million compared to $380.5 million for fiscal 2000.  During fiscal 2001, the Company opened 5 ALCOstores, all of which were in new non-competitive markets.  Seven stores were closed, resulting in a year end total of 267 stores.  Substantially all of the increase in net sales was due to new stores opened over the last two fiscal years. Netsales for all stores open the full year in both fiscal 2001 and 2000 (comparable stores), increased by $1.5 million or .4% in fiscal 2001 compared to fiscal 2000.  Sales in the 18,000 square foot ALCO stores, the main focus of the Company'sexpansion efforts, increased $2.4 million, or 1.5%.  Sales softened in the second half of the year as consumer spending in the Company's small markets was impacted by higher interest rates, high transportation and home heating costs, and a weakfarm economy.
Gross margin for fiscal 2001 increased $0.7 million, or 0.6%, to $128.5 million compared to $127.8 million in fiscal 2000.  As a percentage of net sales, gross margindecreased to 32.9% in fiscal 2001 compared to 33.6% in fiscal 2000. The decline in the gross margin percentage was attributable to higher transportation costs, markdowns, and the mix of sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.3 million or 3.1% to $110.0 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $106.7 million in fiscal 2000, primarily due tohigher advertising and utilities costs.  Also included are expenses associated with the development and implementation of key initiatives that are designed to improve sales and profits in fiscal 2002 and future years.  As a percentage of netsales, selling, general and administrative expenses was 28.2% in fiscal 2001 and 28.1% in fiscal 2000.  Selling, general and administrative expense was unfavorably impacted by the sale-leaseback transactions for $6.1 million and $6.2 millionthat were completed at the end of fiscal years 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The sale-leaseback impacts selling, general and administrative expense through higher store rent expense, with a corresponding reduction in depreciation and interest expense.
The provision for asset impairment and store closure increased $1.0 million, or 224%, to $1.5 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $0.5 million in fiscal 2000.  Thoseamounts are comprised of $1.2 million for asset impairment and $320,000 for store closing in fiscal 2001, and $294,000 for asset impairment and $169,000 for store closing in fiscal 2000.  Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever eventsor changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated future net cash flows expectedto be generated by the asset.  If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets.  For purposes of determiningimpairment, assets are grouped at the store level.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.  A provision for store closure expense is recorded in the period the decision toclose a store is made and a definitive plan of closure for such store is put in place that will be completed in the near term.  Such store closure expenses consist primarily of lease costs and property tax amounts that relate to the period subsequentto the date of closure.  Store closure expense represents costs to close 4 ALCO stores and 4 Duckwall stores in fiscal 2001, and 3 ALCO and 5 Duckwall stores in fiscal 2000.  Included in store closure expense are expenses accrued for storesexpected to be closed as well as others closed during the current year.  Because there is a smaller investment in fixtures and leasehold costs, the cost to close a Duckwall store is smaller than the cost to close an ALCO store.  At the end offiscal 2001 a provision for impairment had been recorded for 6 ALCO and 5 Duckwall stores for which stores had not been closed nor had a decision been made to close such stores.  Depreciation expense that the Company will not experience as a resultof these impairments will be approximately $210,000 for fiscal 2002.
Income from operations decreased $3.5 million, or 24.4%, to $10.8 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $14.2 million in fiscal 2000.  Income from operations as apercentage of net sales decreased to 2.7% in fiscal 2001 from 3.7% in fiscal 2000.
Interest expense decreased $418,000, or 11.4%, in fiscal 2001 compared to fiscal 2000. The reduction in interest expense is due primarily to the reduction in borrowing dueto the sale-leaseback transactions previously discussed.
Income taxes were $2.8 million in fiscal 2001 compared to $4.0 million in fiscal 2000.  The Company's effective tax rate was 37.8% in fiscal 2001 and 38.0% infiscal 2000.
Earnings before the cumulative effect of accounting change for fiscal 2001 decreased by $1.9 million, or 28.7%, to $4.7 million compared to $6.6 million in fiscal 2000.
**Fiscal 2000 Compared to Fiscal 1999**
Net sales for fiscal 2000 increased $17.0 million, or 4.7%, to $380.5 million compared to $363.5 million for fiscal 1999.  During fiscal 2000, the Company opened 21stores, all of which were in new non-competitive markets.  Nine stores were closed, resulting in a year end total of 269 stores.  Substantially all of the increase in net sales was due to new stores opened over the last two fiscal years. Netsales for all stores open the full year in both fiscal 2000 and 1999 (comparable stores), decreased by $.4 million, or .1%, in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999.  Sales in the 18,000 square foot ALCO stores, the main focus of the Company'sexpansion efforts, increased $1.3 million, or 1.0%.  Sales were impacted by the implementation of the Company's New Low Prices Everyday (NLPE) pricing strategy, which was 
 

launched in February 1999 in the Company's ALCO discount stores.  This strategy eliminated eight advertising circulars and otherpromotional activity while instituting a consistent, competitively advantageous, pricing strategy designed to generate increased sales over the long term.
Gross margin for fiscal 2000 increased $3.7 million, or 3.0%, to $127.8 million compared to $124.1 million in fiscal 1999.  As a percentage of net sales,gross margin decreased to 33.6% in fiscal 2000 compared to 34.1% in fiscal 1999.  Although promotional markdowns decreased as a percentage of sales due to the implementation of NLPE, the gross margin percentage was negatively impacted infiscal 2000 by reduced LIFO income in the amount of $2.4 million.  Excluding the LIFO impact, gross margin as a percent of sales improved to 33.6% in fiscal 2000 compared to 33.5% in fiscal 1999.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $4.5 million, or 4.4%, to $106.7 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $102.2 million in fiscal 1999,primarily due to the increase in total stores.  As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expenses was 28.1% in fiscal 2000 and 28.2% in fiscal 1999.** **Although advertising expenses declined due to the implementation of NLPE, selling, general and administrative expense was unfavorably impacted by thesale-leaseback that was completed at the end of fiscal 1999.  The sale-leaseback impacts selling, general and administrative expense through higher store rent expense, with a corresponding reduction in depreciation and interest expense.
Income from operations decreased $1.5 million, or 9.4%, to $14.2 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $15.7 million in fiscal 1999. Income from operations as a percentage ofnet sales decreased to 3.7% in fiscal 2000 from 4.3% in fiscal 1999.  Excluding the impact of LIFO, income from operations increased $962,000, or 7.2%, in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999. 
Interest expense decreased $562,000, or 13.2%, in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999. The reduction in interest expense is due primarily to the reduction in borrowing dueto the sale-leaseback transaction for $6.2 million that was completed at the end of fiscal 1999.
Income taxes were $4.0 million in fiscal 2000 compared to $4.3 million in fiscal 1999.  The Company's effective tax rate was 38.0% in fiscal 2000, and 37.3% infiscal 1999.
Earnings before the cumulative effect of accounting change for fiscal 2000 decreased by $657,000, or 9.1%, to $6.6 million compared to $7.2 million in fiscal 1999.** **Excluding the impact of LIFO, net income increased by $878,000, or 15.5%, in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999.
**Seasonality and Quarterly Results**
The following table sets forth the Company's net sales, gross margin, income from operations, and net earnings during each quarter of fiscal 1999, 2000, and 2001.**First****Second****Third****Fourth****Quarter****Quarter****Quarter****Quarter**** ****(dollars in millions)**Fiscal 1999     Net      Sales$81.1$90.4$85.3$106.8     Gross      Margin28.230.629.336.0     Income      from operations2.63.62.96.6     Net      Earnings (1)1.01.81.13.3Fiscal 2000     Net      Sales$87.0$94.2$87.6$111.7     Gross      Margin29.131.930.736.1     Income      from operations2.03.92.65.7     Net      Earnings0.71.91.03.0Fiscal 2001     Net      Sales$91.1$99.5$89.3$110.7     Gross      Margin30.333.330.034.9     Income      from operations1.73.91.14.1
(1)   Represents earnings before the cumulative effect of accounting change.
The Company's business is subject to seasonal fluctuations.  The Company's highest sales levels occur in the fourth quarter of its fiscal year which includes the holiday selling season.  TheCompany's results of operations in any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that can be expected for any other quarter or for the full fiscal year.  The Company's results of 

 

operations may also fluctuate from quarter to quarter as a result of the amount and timing of sales contributed by new stores and the integration of the new stores into the operations ofthe Company, as well as other factors.  The addition of a large number of new stores can, therefore, significantly affect the quarterly results of operations.  Also, refer to Impact of Change in Accounting Principle and Note 10 to theConsolidated Financial Statements regarding the impact of the accounting change on quarterly results.

**Inflation**
Management does not believe that its operations have been materially affected by inflationover the past few years.  The Company will continue to monitor costs, take advantage of vendor incentive programs, selectively buy from competitivevendors and adjust merchandise prices based on market conditions.
**Liquidityand Capital Resources**
At the end of fiscal 2001, working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) was $94.0 million compared to $95.9 million atthe end of fiscal 2000 and $90.1 million at the end of fiscal 1999.
The Company's primary sources of funds are cash flow from operations, borrowings under its revolving loan credit facility, vendor trade credit financing and leasefinancing.  In fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company completed a sale-leaseback of a number of its owned stores.  The proceeds from these transactions amounted to $2.0 million, $6.1 million and $6.2 million in fiscal years 2001, 2000 and1999, respectively. 
 Cash provided by operating activities aggregated $7.3 million, $10.5 million, and $6.6 million, in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.  The decrease in cashprovided in fiscal 2001 relative to fiscal 2000 resulted primarily from earnings as well as a decrease in accounts payable.  The increase in cash provided in fiscal 2000 relative to fiscal 1999 resulted primarily from a larger increase in accountspayable and increased earnings before considering the non-cash impact of LIFO. 
 The Company uses its revolving loan credit facility and vendor trade credit financing to fund the build up of inventories periodically during the year for its peakselling periods and to meet other short-term cash requirements.  The revolving loan credit facility which provides up to $70 million of financing in the form of notes payable and letters of credit.  The loan agreement   expires inApril 2002 and automatically renews for successive one-year terms thereafter unless terminated by the lenders or the Company.   The Company had borrowings available at January 28, 2001 under the revolving loan credit facility amounting to $41.6million.  Short-term trade credit represents a significant source of financing for inventory to the Company.  Trade credit arises from the willingness of the Company's vendors to grant payment terms for inventory purchases.
In fiscal 2001, the Company made net cash payments on its revolving credit facility of $4.8 million, made cash payments of $1.8 million to reduce its long-term debt andcapital lease obligations, and repurchased $3.0 million of Company stock.  In fiscal 2000, the Company made net cash payments on its revolving credit facility of $178,000, made cash payments of $3.7 million to reduce its long-term debt and capitallease obligations, and repurchased $2.8 million of Company stock. In fiscal 1999, the Company made net cash borrowings of $5.9 million.  The Company executed operating leases for 62 additional stores during the three year period ending in fiscal2001.  The Company's long-range plan assumes growth in the number of stores in smaller markets where there is less competition, and, in accordance with this plan, 5 new stores were opened in fiscal 2001 and at least 4 new stores are scheduled to beopened in fiscal 2002.  The Company believes that with the $70 million line of credit, sufficient capital is available to fund the Company's planned expansion.
 Cash used for acquisition of property and equipment in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 totaled $5.9 million, $6.4 million, and $10.3 million, respectively.  Asale-leaseback of store buildings was completed in the amount of $2.0 million, $6.1 million, and $6.2 million in fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.  This resulted in net cash used for acquisition of property and equipment in fiscal 2001,2000, and 1999 of $3.9 million, $0.3 million, and $4.0 million, respectively.  Anticipated cash payments for acquisition of property and equipment in fiscal 2002, principally for store buildings and fixtures, are $8.2 million.
During fiscal 1999, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 411,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Stock RepurchaseProgram").  During fiscal 2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional 1,000,000 shares.  Purchases pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program are to be made from time to time in the open market or directly fromstockholders at prevailing market prices.  The Stock Repurchase Program is anticipated to be funded with internally generated cash and borrowing under the Credit Facility.  As of January 28, 2001, the Company had purchased and retired 740,300shares of Common Stock for $6.5 million.  During the period from January 29, 2001 to April 6, 2001, the Company purchased and retired an additional 270,000 shares of its Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1.7 million.  Since thefirst buyback was announced in fiscal 1999, the Company has repurchased a total of 1,010,300 shares, which represents 20% of its outstanding shares.
**FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL CONDITION OR BUSINESS**
 In order to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Company is herebyidentifying important risks and uncertainties that could affect the Company's actual results of operations, financial condition or businessand could 
 

cause the  Company's actual results of operations, financial condition or business to differ materially from its historical results ofoperations, financial condition or business, or the results of operations, financial condition or business contemplated by forward-looking statements made herein or elsewhere orally or in writing, by, or on behalf of, the Company.  Factors that couldcause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those factors described below.
**Expansion Plans**
The continued growth of the Company is dependent, in large part, upon the Company's ability to open and operate new stores on a timely and profitable basis. The Company plans toopen approximately 4 ALCO stores in the current fiscal year and at least 4 ALCO stores in both fiscal 2003 and 2004.  While the Company believes that adequate sites are currently available,the rate of new store openings is subject to various contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control.  These contingencies include the availability of acceptable communities for store locations, the Company's ability to securesuitable store sites on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, the Company's ability to hire, train and retain qualified personnel, the availability  of adequate capital resources and the successful integration of new stores into existingoperations.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to continue to successfully identify and obtain new store sites or that once obtained, the new stores will achieve satisfactory sales or profitability.
**Competition**
 The Company's strategy is to locate its ALCO stores in smaller retail markets where there is no competing full-line discount retail store within the primary trade area andwhere the Company believes the opening of a store would significantly reduce the likelihood of such a competitor entering the market.  No assurance can be given, however, that competition will not emerge in such markets which, if developed, couldseriously reduce the prospect of a profitable store in such market.  In those markets in which the Company has direct competition, it often competes with national or regional full-line discount stores which often have substantially greater financialand other resources than the Company.
**Government Regulation**
 The Company is subject to numerous federal, state and local government laws and regulations, including those relating to the development, construction and operation of theCompany's stores.  The Company is also subject to laws governing its relationship with employees, including minimum wage requirements, laws and regulations relating to overtime, working and safety conditions, and citizenship requirements. Material increases in the cost of compliance with any applicable law or regulation and similar matters could materially and adversely affect the Company.
 In 1996, Congress enacted The Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 (the "Act"), raising the hourly minimum wage from $4.25 to $4.75 effective as of October 1, 1996 and to$5.15 effective as of September 1, 1997.  The majority of the Company's store employees were paid hourly wages below these increased minimum wage rates.  As a result, the Act increased the Company's payroll expense.  Additional increases inthe minimum wage could have a material impact on the results of the Company's operations if it were not able to pass those increased costs on to customers or if sales were not increasing at a rate large enough to offset the impact.
**Control by Significant Stockholder**
 Kansas Public Employees Retirement System("KPERS") is a principal stockholder of the Company, beneficially owning approximately 16% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company as of March 2, 2001.
**Quarterly Fluctuations**
 Quarterly results of operations have historically fluctuated as a result of retail consumers' purchasing patterns, with the highest quarter in terms of sales and profitabilitybeing the fourth quarter.  Quarterly results of operations will likely continue to fluctuate significantly as a result of such patterns and may fluctuate due to the timing of new store openings.
**Economic Conditions**
 Similar to other retail businesses, the Company's operations may be affected adversely by general economic conditions and events which result in reduced consumer spending inthe markets served by its stores.  Also, smaller communities where the Company's stores are located may be dependent upon a few large employers or may be significantly affected by economic conditions in the industry upon which the community reliesfor its economic viability, such as the agricultural industry.  This may make the Company's stores more vulnerable to a downturn in a particular segment of the economy than the Company's competitors, which operate in markets which are largermetropolitan areas where the local economy is more diverse.
**Dependence on Officers**
 The development of the Company's business has been largely dependent on the efforts of its current management team headed by Glen L. Shank and fourteen other officers. The loss of the services of one or more of these officers could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
 

**No Recent Dividend Payments; Restrictions on Payment of Dividends**
 The Company has not paid a cash dividend on the Common Stock for more than five years, and it has no plans to commence paying cash dividends on the Common Stock.  TheCompany's revolving loan credit facility currently prohibits the payment of cash dividends.
**Impact of Change in Accounting Principle**
 Effective October 30, 2000, the Company, in response to the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101(SAB 101), changed its method of accounting for layaway sales, retroactive to the beginning of the year.  Previously, the Company recognized revenue on the entire amount of layaway sales at the time merchandise was placed on layaway.  Under thenew method, revenue on layaway sales are recognized upon delivery of the merchandise to the customer.  The effect of adopting the accounting change on earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change, net earnings, and net earnings per sharefor fiscal 2001 is to increase (decrease) such amounts by $(38,000), $(211,000), and $(.05), respectively.  The change is considered a cumulative effect-type accounting change and, accordingly, the cumulative effect as of January 31, 2000 has beenreported in the accompanying financial statements.  Financial statements for fiscal 2000 and prior periods have not been restated.  The Company believes the pro forma effect on net earnings and earnings per share for fiscal 2000 and 1999, as ifthe new accounting method had been applied consistently during such periods, is not material.
 Effective November 1, 1998, the Company adopted AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, Reporting on the Costs of Start up Activities (SOP 98-5), retroactive to the beginning of theyear.  Previously, the Company initially capitalized and then amortized preopening costs over the initial 12-months of a store's operation.  Under the new method, the Company expenses such store preopening costs as incurred.  The effect ofadopting the accounting change on earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change, net earnings, and net earnings per share for fiscal 1999 is to increase (decrease) such amounts $529,000, ($427,000), and ($0.08), respectively.  The change isconsidered a cumulative effect-type accounting change and, accordingly, the cumulative effect as of February 1, 1998 has been reported in the accompanying audited financial statements.
**ITEM 7A.           QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**
 The Company is subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on its financing, investing and cash management activities.  The Company maintains asecured line of credit at variable interest rates to meet the short-term needs of its expansion program and seasonal inventory increases.
 Under this loan agreement, the Company converted $30,000,000 from the revolving rate loan to a 7.23% fixed rate loan on April 15, 1998 (balance of $25,000,000 at January28, 2001) which expired April 15, 2001 after which any borrowings required by the Company will be obtained pursuant to the Revolving Rate Loan or LIBOR Rate loan provisions of the revolving loan credit facility.  The Company entered into an interestrate swap in December 2000 with a notional principal amount of $10,000,000 whereby the Company will pay a fixed rate of interest and receive interest based on LIBOR for the period April 15, 2001 to April 15, 2002 to mitigate its interest rate risk underthe revolving credit facility.
 

**ITEM 8.          FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA.**
Financial    Statement Schedules:No    financial statement schedules are included as they arenot    applicable to the Company.

**(1)       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies**

***(a)       Nature of Business***

Duckwall-ALCO Stores, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) is engaged in the business of retailing general merchandise throughout the midwestern and south central regions of theUnited States through discount department and variety store outlets. Merchandise is purchased for resale from many vendors, and transactions with individual vendors and customers do not represent a significant portion of total purchases and sales.

***(b)       Principles of Consolidation***

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significantintercompany account balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

***(c)       Basis of Presentation***

The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to January 31. Fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999 consist of 52 weeks.

***(d)       Inventories***

Store inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value as estimated by the retail inventory method. Warehouse inventories arestated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company utilizes the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of determining cost of store and warehouse inventories.

***(e)       Property and Equipment***

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Amortization of capital leases iscomputed on a straight-line basis over the terms of the lease agreements. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the remaining lease term, or ten years. Estimated useful lives are as follows:
 

Buildings

25 years

Building improvements

10 years

Furniture, fixtures and  equipment

3 - 8 years

Transportation equipment

3 - 5 years

Leasehold improvements

3 - 10 years

 

Major improvements are capitalized while maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the useful life of the asset, are charged to expense as incurred.

***(f)        Income Taxes***

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable todifferences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax ratesexpected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includesthe enactment date.

***(g)       Net Sales***

Sales are recorded in the period of sale. Sales returns, which are not material, are recorded in the period of return as a reduction of sales.

***(h)       Change in Accounting Principle***

Effective October 30, 2000, the Company, in response to the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101(SAB 101), changed its method of accounting for layaway sales, retroactive to the beginning of the year. Previously, the Company recognized revenue on the entire amount of layaway sales at the time merchandise was placed on layaway. Under the new method,revenue on layaway sales are recognized upon delivery of the merchandise to the customer. The effect of adopting the accounting change on earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change, net earnings, and net earnings per share for fiscal 2001 isto increase (decrease) such amounts by $(38), $(211), and $(.05), respectively. The change is considered a cumulative effect-type accounting change and, accordingly, the cumulative effect as of January 31, 2000 has been reported in the accompanyingfinancial statements. Financial statements for fiscal 2000 and prior periods have not been restated. The Company believes the pro forma effect on net earnings and earnings per share for fiscal 2000 and 1999, as if the new accounting method had beenapplied consistently during such periods, is not material.Effective November 1, 1998, the Company adopted AICPA Statement of Position 98-5, *Reporting on the Costs of Start up Activities* (SOP 98-5), retroactive to thebeginning of the year. Previously, the Company initially capitalized and then amortized preopening costs over the initial 12-months of a store's operation. Under the new method, the Company expenses such store preopening costs as incurred. The effect ofadopting the accounting change on earnings before cumulative effect of accounting change, net earnings, and net earnings per share for fiscal 1999 is to increase (decrease) such amounts by $529, ($427), and ($.08), respectively. The change is considered acumulative effect-type accounting change and, accordingly, the cumulative effect as of February 1, 1998 has been reported in the accompanying financial statements.

***(i)        Net Earnings Per Share***

Basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share reflects the potentialdilution that could occur if contracts to issue securities (such as stock options) were exercised. See note 9.

***(j)        Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows***

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and cash equivalents to includecurrency on hand and money market funds.
During fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, the following amounts were paid for interest and income taxes:

***(k)       Use of Estimates***

Management of the Company has made certain estimates and assumptions in the reporting of assets and liabilities to prepare these financialstatements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

***(l)        Long-lived Assets***

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset maynot be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, theimpairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. For purposes of determining impairment, the Company groups assets at the store level. Assets to be disposed of arereported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Provisions for asset impairment of $1,182, $294, and $55 for fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively, are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
 

**DUCKWALL-ALCO STORES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIESNotes to Consolidated Financial StatementsJanuary 28, 2001, January 30, 2000, and January 31, 1999*(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)*
 

***(m)      Store Closure Expenses***

The Company records a provision for store closure expenses and a related liability in the period the Company makes the decision to close a store and puts in place a definitiveplan of closure for such store that will be completed in the near term. Such store closure expenses consist primarily of lease costs and property tax amounts that relate to the period subsequent to the date of closure. The liability is charged as therelated amounts are paid. There were no significant adjustments to the liability in fiscal 2001, 2000, or 1999. The store closure expense reflected in the consolidated statements of operations for fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999 is $320, $169, and $64,respectively. The amount of liability for store closure reflected in the consolidated balance sheets at January 28, 2001 and January 30, 2000 is $218 and $189, respectively, (included in other current liabilities).

***(n)       Stock-based Compensation***

The Company accounts for its stock options in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, *Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees* and related interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of grant only if the current marketprice of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. In addition, SFAS No. 123, *Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation*, requires that pro forma net earnings and pro forma earnings per share disclosures be provided for employee stock optiongrants made in fiscal year 1996 and subsequent years as if the fair value-based cost measurement method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied.

***(o)       Reclassifications***

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2000 and 1999 amounts in order to conform with the 2001 presentation.

***(p)       New Accounting Standards***

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, *Accounting for DerivativeInstruments and Hedging Activities*, establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. This Statement, as amended, iseffective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000.The Company does not anticipate that adoption of Statement No. 133 will have a material impact on its operating results or its financial condition.

**(2)       Inventories
Inventories at January 28, 2001 and January 30, 2000 are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value as determined under the LIFO method ofaccounting. Inventories at January 28, 2001 and January 30, 2000 are summarized as follows:

Earnings before income taxes for fiscal 1999 would have decreased by $2,449 if the FIFO method of valuing inventories had been utilized.
**(3)       Credit Arrangements, Notes Payable and Long-term Debt
The Company's loan agreement with its lenders provides a revolving loan credit facility of up to $70,000of long-term financing. The amount advanced (through a note or letters of credit) to the Company bears interest at the prime rate on the Revolving Rate Loan and LIBOR plus 1.50% on the LIBOR Rate Loan and is generally limited to 65% of eligibleinventory, as defined. Advances are secured by a security interest in the Company's inventory, accounts receivable and intangible assets. The loan agreement contains various restrictions including limitations on additional indebtedness, sales of assets,and financial covenants related to the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and tangible net worth, all as defined. The loan agreement prohibits the payment of dividends. The loan agreement expires in April 2002 and automatically renews for successiveone-year terms thereafter unless terminated by the lenders or the Company.
Under this agreement, the Company converted $30,000 from the Revolving Rate Loan to a 7.23% Fixed Rate Loan on April 15, 1998 (balance of $25,000 at January 28, 2001) whichexpires April 15, 2001 at which time management anticipates that any borrowings required by the Company will be obtained pursuant to the Revolving Rate Loan or LIBOR Rate loan provisions of the revolving loan credit facility. The Company entered into aninterest rate swap in December 2000 with a notional principal amount of $10,000 whereby the Company will pay a fixed rate of interest and receive interest based on LIBOR for the period April 15, 2001 to April 15, 2002 to mitigate its interest rate riskunder the revolving credit facility. Fair value of this swap approximated carrying value at January 28, 2001.

The Company has chosen to account for stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly,compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. If the Company had elected to recognizecompensation cost based on the fair value of the options granted at grant date as prescribed by Statement 123, net earnings and net earnings per share would have been decreased to the pro forma amounts indicated in the table below:

**(8)        Stockholders' Equity**

During 1998, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to 411,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Stock Repurchase Program"). During fiscal2000, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase of an additional 1,000,000 shares. Purchases pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Program are to be made from time to time in the open market or directly from stockholders at prevailing marketprices. The Stock Repurchase Program is anticipated to be funded with internally generated cash and borrowings under the Credit Facility. As of January 28, 2001, the Company had purchased 740,300 shares of common stock for $6,477. The Company has accounted for the confirmation of its plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal bankruptcy laws which was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on May 17, 1991 as a quasi-reorganization. Accordingly, the accumulated deficit atJune 2, 1991 was charged to additional paid-in capital and a new retained earnings account was established effective the same date. No adjustment was made to the carrying values of the Company's assets and liabilities because such amounts were not inexcess of estimated fair values. During fiscal 2001, the Company recorded the remaining income tax benefit from loss periods prior to the quasi-reorganization as a reduction of noncurrent deferred income tax liability and an increase to additional paid-incapital.

**(11)           Fair Value of Financial Instruments**

The      Company has determined the fair value of its financial instruments in      accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, *Disclosures      About Fair Value of Financial Instruments*. For long-term debt, the      fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at rates      currently available for similar types of debt instruments. Such fair value      approximated the carrying value of long-term debt at January 28, 2001 and      January 30, 2000. For notes payable under revolving loan credit facility,      fair value approximates the carrying value due to the variable interest      rate.

For      all other financial instruments including cash, receivables, accounts      payable, and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value      due to the short maturity of those instruments.

**(12)           Related Party Transactions**

Lease      payments to related parties amounted to approximately $663, $660, and $657      in fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.      During fiscal 2001, the Company paid a consulting firm $1,002 to develop      certain retailing initiatives. A board member of the Company has an      ownership interest in the consulting firm.

During      fiscal 2000 and 1999, the Company paid a computer consulting firm, whose      president or chairman was a director of the Company, $230 and $260,      respectively, for point-of-sale software and related services.

**(13)           Business Operations and Segment Information**

The      Company's business activities include operation of ALCO Discount Stores in      towns with populations which are typically less than 5,000 not served by      other regional or national retail discount chains and Duckwall variety      stores that offer a more limited selection of merchandise which are      primarily located in communities of less than 2,500 residents.

For      financial reporting purposes, the Company has established two operating      segments: "ALCO Discount Stores", and "All Other",      which includes the Duckwall variety stores and other business activities,      such as general office, warehouse and distribution activities.

Income from operations as reflected in the above segment information has been determined differently than income from operations in the accompanying consolidated statements of operationsas follows:

*Intercompany Sales*

Intercompany sales represent transfers of merchandise from the warehouse to ALCO Discount Stores and Duckwall variety stores.

*Intercompany Expense Allocations*

General and administrative expenses incurred at the general office have not been allocated to the ALCO Discount Stores for purposes of determining income from operations for thesegment information.

Warehousing and distribution costs including freight applicable to merchandise purchases, have been allocated to the ALCO Discount Stores segment based on the Company'scustomary method of allocation for such costs (primarily as a stipulated percentage of merchandise purchases).

*Inventories*

Inventories are based on the FIFO method for segment information purposes and on the LIFO method for the consolidated statements of operations.

*Leases*

All leases are accounted for as operating leases for purposes of determining income from operations for purposes of determining the segment information for the ALCO DiscountStores whereas capital leases are accounted for as such in the consolidated statements of operations.

Identifiable assets as reflected in the above segment information include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, inventory, property and equipment, and property under capital leases.
