ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Elmer's (NASDAQ Small Cap Market symbol: ELMS), located in Portland, Oregon, is
a franchisor and operator of full-service, family oriented restaurants under the
names "Elmer's Breakfast. Lunch. Dinner." and "Elmer's Pancake & Steak House"
and an operator of delicatessen restaurants under the names "Ashley's" and
"Richard's Deli and Pub." The Company is an Oregon corporation and was
incorporated in 1983. Walter Elmer opened the first Elmer's restaurant in
Portland, Oregon in 1960, and the first franchised restaurant opened in 1966.
The Company acquired the Elmer's franchising operation in January 1984 from the
Elmer family.

The Company currently owns and operates 11 Elmer's restaurants and is a party to
franchise agreements for 18 Elmer's restaurants in six western states.

On August 1, 2000, the Company entered into an occupancy lease agreement with
Shilo Management Company ("Shilo") for the lease of restaurant space in Shilo's
hotel/motel in Springfield, Oregon, and is currently renovating the restaurant
space. The Company's will own and operate the Springfield, Oregon, restaurant,
which will be the Company's twelfth.

The Company franchises or operates a total of 29 full-service, family-oriented
restaurants, with a warm, friendly atmosphere and comfortable furnishings. Most

rooms. The restaurants are primarily free standing buildings, ranging in size
from 4,600 to

                                       6
<PAGE>

approximately 8,000 square feet with seating capacities ranging from 120 to 220.
A portion of the dining room in most restaurants may also be used for private
group meetings by closing it off from the public dining areas.

The menu offers an extensive selection of items for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The Elmer's breakfast menu, which is available all day, contains a wide variety
of selections with particular emphasis on pancakes, waffles, omelets, crepes,
country platters and other popular breakfast items.

Highlights of Historical Results. The Company reported net income of $308,117 or
$.17 per share for the quarter ended July 24, 2000, on sales of $7.231 million
as compared to reported net income of approximately $257,059 or $.14 per share
for the first quarter ended July 26, 1999. The $51,058 increase in net income is
attributable to continued increases in same store sales and operating and
improvements in comparable same store operating performance. The Company's total
assets as at July 24, 2000 were $13.7 million, which is a decrease of $161,212
over total assets as at March 31, 2000. In the sixteen weeks ended July 24,
2000, working capital increased $80,196 while notes payable (net of current
portion) decreased $197,766. Cash provided by operating activities totaled
$199,031 for the period ended July 24, 2000 compared to $688,642 for the period
ending July 26, 1999. The decrease in cash provided from operations is primarily
attributable to the reduction in accrued income taxes and accrued expenses by
$285,205 and $76,921 respectively, during the sixteen weeks ended July 24, 2000,
thereby reducing cash provided by operating activities by $362,126. During the
sixteen weeks ended July 26, 1999 accrued income taxes and accounts payable and
accrued expenses increased by $127,816 and $5,218 respectively thereby
increasing cash provided by operations by $133,034.

Comparison of Results of Operations. The following discussion and analysis
presents the Company's results of operations for the 115 days ended July 24,
2000 and the 117 days ending July 26, 1999 respectively.

For the period ended July 24, 2000, the Company's net income and earnings per
share increased 20% over net income and earnings per share for the comparable
period in 1999. Net income as a percentage of total revenue increased from 3.7%
for the period ended July 26, 1999, to 4.3% for the quarter ended July 24, 2000.

REVENUES. Revenues for the period ended July 24, 2000 were 3.0% greater than the
two-day longer comparable period in 1999. Revenues from same store restaurant
operations showed increases of 2.1% over the two-day longer comparable period
ended July 26, 1999. The Company anticipates further improvement in same store
sales as it rolls out its scheduled seasonal "outsert" menu program with a
corresponding advertising campaign emphasizing new contemporary menu items.

RESTAURANT COSTS AND EXPENSES. Restaurant costs and expenses, which consists of
four categories including food, beverage and supply costs, labor and labor
related costs, occupancy costs, and depreciation and amortization, decreased to
68.2% of revenue for the quarter ended July 24, 2000 compared to 70.6% for the
comparable period in 1999. Food, beverage and supply costs as a percentage of
total revenues were 28.3% for the sixteen weeks ended July 24, 2000 compared to
29.4% for the comparable period ended July 26, 1999. Labor expenses totaled
31.7% of revenues for the quarter ended July 24, 2000 compared to 32.4% of
revenues for the same period in 1999. The decrease in food, beverage and supply
cost as a percentage of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 over first
quarter of fiscal 2000 is principally a result of the of the full implementation
of the new regular and "outsert" menu programs. The decrease in labor as a
percentage of revenues in the first quarter of 2001 over first quarter 2000 is
driven by increases in guest check driven by the Company's new menu. Occupancy
costs as a percentage of revenues dropped from 5.8% for the sixteen weeks ended
July 26, 1999 to 5.5% for the same period ended July 24, 2000. Depreciation and
amortization expense as a percentage of revenues dropped from 3.0% for the
quarter ended July 26, 1999 to 2.8% for the quarter ended July 24, 2000. Both
decreases are principally attributable to the 3.0% increase in total revenues.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative ("G&A") expenses
were 23.4% of total revenue in the first quarter of 2001 compared to 21.3% of
revenues in the comparable period in fiscal year 2000. The increase in G&A
includes cash compensation paid to the Chief Executive Officer and President as
well as increased administrative wages and benefits. G&A expenses as a percent
of revenue for the year ended March 31, 2000 was 25.4%.

NON OPERATING INCOME (EXPENSES). Net other expenses were 1.9% of total revenues
in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to 2.5% of total revenues in the
comparable period in fiscal 2000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. As of July 24, 2000, the Company had cash and
equivalents of approximately $1.5 million representing a decrease from March 31,
2000 of approximately $144,000. The decrease resulted from cash used for
reduction in accrued income taxes of $285,205. Cash used by financing activities
was $112,638 primarily from payments on notes payable. Cash used in investing
activities was $230,193 for additions to property, buildings and equipment.

                                       8
<PAGE>

The Company's primary liquidity needs arise from debt service on indebtedness,
operating lease requirements and the funding of capital expenditures. As of July
24, 2000, the Company had outstanding indebtedness of $1.97 million under a term
loan facility and $2.26 million under real estate loan facilities with Wells
Fargo Bank (the "Wells Fargo Loans") and $1.25 million under a term loan
facility with Eagle's View Management Company, Inc. (the "EVM Loan").

The Wells Fargo Loans have a weighted-average maturity of 9 years, bear interest
at an average of 8.2%, require monthly payments of principal and interest, are
collateralized by substantially all of the assets owned by Elmer's Restaurants,
Inc. and impose certain financial restrictions and covenants, the most
restrictive of which, require the Company to maintain a maximum of total
liabilities, excluding subordinated debt, to tangible net worth plus
subordinated debt of 5.5 to 1.0. Additionally, on a trailing four quarter basis
as of the end of each fiscal quarter, the Company will be required to maintain a
ratio of cash generation to total interest expense plus the prior period current
maturities of long-term debt of at least 2.25 to 1.0. As of July 24, 2000, the
Company had fulfilled its obligations under the Wells Fargo Loans.

The Company also has available a $250,000 line of credit (of which approximately
$175,000 remains available at July 24, 2000) with Wells Fargo Bank through
September 1, 2000.

The EVM Loan has a maturity of approximately 5 years, an annual interest rate of
15%, requires monthly payments of interest only, and is collateralized by a
second position on substantially all the assets owned by the Company.

The Company's primary source of liquidity during the year was the operation of
its restaurants, franchise fees earned from its franchisees, cash on hand, and
borrowings, as discussed above.

Elmer's Restaurants, Inc. and Grass Valley Ltd., Inc., like most restaurant
businesses, are able to operate with nominal or deficit working capital because
sales are for cash and inventory turnover is rapid. Renovation and/or remodeling
of existing restaurants is either funded directly from available cash or, in
some instances, is financed through outside lenders. Construction or acquisition
of new restaurants is generally, although not always, financed by outside
lenders.

The Company believes that it will continue to be able to obtain adequate
financing on acceptable terms for new restaurant construction and acquisitions
and that cash generated from operations will be adequate to meet its financial
needs and to pay operating expenses for the foreseeable future, although no
assurances can be given.

The Company holds no financial instruments of any kind for trading purposes.
Certain of the Company's outstanding financial instruments are subject to market
risks, including interest rate risk. Such financial instruments are not
currently subject to foreign currency risk or commodity price risk. The
Company's major market risk exposure is potential loss arising from changing
interest rates and the impact of such changes on its long-term debt. Of the
Company's long-term debt outstanding at July 24, 2000, $984,800 principal amount
was accruing interest at a variable rate of LIBOR plus 2.25%. A rise in
prevailing interest rates could have adverse effects on the Company's financial
condition and results of operations.
