Recent Events

In the period February 2000 through July 2000, the Company entered into a series
of transactions resulting in its obtaining approximately $10.5 million in
additional capital. The additional capital came from investors associated with
The Geometry Group in New York and certain local investors in Indianapolis
purchasing approximately $2.9 million of common stock in exchange for cash, The
Provident Bank exchanging $6.5 million senior secured debt and $740 thousand PIK
notes for $2.4 million of common stock and $4.9 million in no-yield preferred
stock which may later be converted to common stock at $3.00 per share at the
Bank's option and an officer converted $312 thousand of notes for common
stock. All of these transactions were at $1.00 per share.

Based on the Company's 1998 and 1999 proforma operating results, the Company's
trends and the results of its operations thus far in 2000, its business plan,
the number of franchise units now open, the backlog of units sold to be opened
and the backlog of franchise prospects now in ongoing discussions and
negotiations, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the
Company's deferred tax credits will be fully utilized before the tax credits
expire. Therefore, no valuation allowance was established for its deferred tax
asset. However, there can be no assurance that the franchising growth will
continue in the future nor can there be any assurance that the remainder of the
full-service restaurants will be franchised at the estimated value. If
unanticipated events should occur in the future, the realization of all or some
portion of the Company's deferred tax asset could be jeopardized. The Company
will continue to evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a quarterly
basis in the future.

The statements contained in Management's Discussion and Analysis concerning the
Company's future revenues, profitability, financial resources, market demand and
product development are forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) relating to the Company
that are based on the beliefs of the management of the Company, as well as
assumptions and estimates made by and information currently available to the
Company's management. The Company's actual results in the future may differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking

                                       2

statements due to risks and uncertainties that exist in the Company's operations
and business environment including, but not limited to: competitive factors and
pricing pressures, shifts in market demand, general economic conditions and
other factors, including (but not limited to) changes in demand for the
Company's products or franchises, the impact of competitors' actions, and
changes in prices or supplies of food ingredients and labor. Should one or more
of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions or
estimates prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those
described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected or intended.

ITEM 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations

Noble Roman's, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Results of Operations - Three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999
and 2000

Introduction

Over the last several years, the Company made the strategic decision to refocus
its business on its non-traditional and co-branding franchising opportunities
and away from operating full-service, traditional restaurants. Given the
potential size of the opportunities in the non-traditional and co-branding
segments, and the actual rapid pace of the franchising growth within the
Company, during 1999 management determined that all financial and human
resources at the Company's disposal should be focused on franchise services to
maximize the potential for stakeholders.

The Company realizes both the historic and continuing significance of its
full-service operations in its on-going franchise development. Accordingly, in
1999 the Company made the decision to consolidate the operations of its 29
Company-owned most productive full-service restaurants in central and southern
Indiana into four operating districts, and to seek independent franchise
operators to purchase and operate those units utilizing the existing supervisory
and managerial resources currently in place. In seeking potential partners for
this transaction, the Company is selectively searching for experienced operators
with the goal of reconditioning certain aspects of the existing facilities and
expanding the concept under a pre-agreed strategy and format. The Company will
continue to offer franchise services to the full-service franchises in much the
same fashion as it is currently doing with its non-traditional and co-branded
franchises. The Company is actively pursuing such arrangements and has already
franchised 15 of them and believes that agreements will be reached for the
remainder.

The following table sets forth the percentage relationship to total revenue of
the listed items included in Noble Roman's condensed consolidated statement of
operations.

2000 Compared with 1999

Total revenue increased from $834 thousand to $1.36 million and from $1.6
million to $2.6 million, respectively, or 62.5% increase, for the three-month
and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999.
This increase was primarily the result of the growth in the number of the
Express franchise locations open.

Express royalties and fees were approximately $1.19 million and $2.14 million,
respectively, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000
compared to $763 thousand and $1.42 million for the same periods in 1999. This
increase was the result of rapid growth in the number of franchises. Franchising
of Noble Roman's Pizza Express began in 1997. At June 30, 2000 approximately 397
franchised Express units were open compared to 235 at June 30, 1999. Since 1997
the Company has awarded over 630 franchises in 36 states, with approximately 420
of those locations open and in operation for a total of approximately 452
locations. In addition to the 210 sold and not yet open locations, it is the
Company's plan to aggressively pursue the sale of additional locations across
the country and Canada. The Company is currently involved in ongoing discussions
and negotiations involving many additional franchise locations.

Salaries and wages decreased from 23.3% and 23.2% of revenue for the three-month
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to 18.0% and 18.6% of revenue for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was the
result of the growth in number of franchised units within the infrastructure
established earlier in anticipation of that growth.

Trade show expense decreased from 6.6% and 6.8% of revenue for the three-month
and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to 4.4% and 4.6%, respectively, of
revenue for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This
decrease was the result of the increased revenue as a result of unit growth
partially offset by more national trade shows.

Travel expenses decreased from 6.5% and 6.2% of revenue for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to 5.7% and 5.6%, respectively, of revenue
for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was
the result of the increased revenue as a result of unit growth partially offset
by increased travel cost related to units opening further away from the home
office, now in 36 states.

Other operating expenses decreased from 10.9% and 10.9% of revenue for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to 9.0% and 8.5%,
respectively, of revenue for the three-month and six-month periods period ended
June 30, 2000. This decrease was the result of the increased revenue as a result
of the growth in number of franchised units within the infrastructure
established earlier in anticipation of that growth.

Depreciation decreased from 1.2% and 1.3% of revenue for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to .7% and .8%, respectively, of revenue
for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This decrease was
the result of the increased revenue as a result of the growth in number of
franchised units with minimal capital requirements.

General and administrative expenses increased from 21.9% and 22.8% of revenue
for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to 22.9% and
24.5%, respectively, of revenue for the three-month and six-month periods ended
June 30, 2000. This increase was the result of creating

                                       8
<PAGE>

additional administrative infrastructure in order to be prepared for expected
accelerated growth in the future.

Interest expense decreased from $456 thousand and $825 thousand for the
three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 1999 to $321 thousand and $628
thousand, respectively, for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,
2000. This decrease was the result of the conversion of $6.5 million in debt to
equity on February 9, 2000 partially offset by increased borrowings of $2.2
million on April 30, 1999.

Net income (loss) before extraordinary item improved from a net loss of $138
thousand and $240 thousand for the three-month and six-month periods ended June
30, 1999 to a net income of $142 and $226 thousand for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2000. This improvement was the result of the
increased revenue as a result of the growth in the number of franchised units
within the infrastructure established earlier in anticipation of that growth.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Over the last several years, the Company made the strategic decision to refocus
its business on its non-traditional and co-branding franchising opportunities
and away from operating full-service, traditional restaurants. Given the
potential size of the opportunities in the non-traditional and co-branding
segments, and the actual rapid pace of their growth within the Company, during
1999 management determined that all financial and human resources at the
Company's disposal should be focused on franchise services to maximize the
potential for stakeholders.

The Company realizes both the historic and continuing significance of its
full-service operations in its on-going franchise development. Accordingly, in
1999 the Company made the decision to consolidate the operations of its 29
Company-owned most productive full-service restaurants in central and southern
Indiana into four operating districts, and to seek independent franchise
operators to purchase and operate those units utilizing the existing supervisory
and managerial resources currently in place. The Company will continue to offer
franchise services to the full-service franchises in much the same fashion as it
is currently doing with its non-traditional and co-branded franchises. The
Company has franchised 15 of the 29 restaurants and believes that agreements
will be reached for the remainder.

In the period February 2000 through July 2000, the Company entered into a series
of transactions resulting in its obtaining approximately $10.5 million in
additional capital. The additional capital came from investors associated with
The Geometry Group in New York and certain local investors in Indianapolis
purchasing approximately $2.9 million of common stock in exchange for cash, The
Provident Bank exchanging $6.5 million senior secured debt and $740 thousand PIK
notes for $2.4 million of common stock and $4.9 million in no-yield preferred
stock which may later be converted to common stock at $3.00 per share at the
Bank's option and an officer converted $312 thousand of notes for common stock.

On April 30, 1999, the Company obtained $2,235,600 in additional funding from
various investors associated with The Geometry Group based in New York City, who
purchased participating income notes of the Company (the "Participating Notes")
and warrants to purchase at any time prior to December 31, 2001 an aggregate of
275,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $.01 per share. The
Participating Notes mature on April 15, 2003 and are payable at that time, at
the option of each investor, in cash, in shares of the Company's common stock
based on a conversion price of $1.00 per share or in a combination thereof.
Interest on the Participating Notes accrues at a rate per annum

equal to each investor's pro rata share of the Company's revenues associated
with the Company's Pizza Express. Such interest is payable in cash monthly,
provided, however, that to the extent that the interest otherwise payable to an
investor would exceed such investor's pro rata share of the sum of $33,534, all
interest in excess of such amount shall be paid in the form of a PIK Note of the
Company. Each PIK Note matures on April 15, 2003 and, similar to the
Participating Notes, is payable at that time, at the option of each investor, in
cash, in shares of the Company's common stock based on a conversion price of
$1.00 per share or in a combination thereof.

As a result of the additional capital raised by the Company, as discussed above,
its decision to focus on growth by franchising and its decision to franchise its
existing full-service restaurants, the Company believes it will have sufficient
cash flow to meet its obligations and to carry out its current business plan.
