addition thereto had established five Variety Stores
new Bakeries, Candy Factory and other necessary
additions to our business The major portion of this
expansion was accomplished in the latter half of the
year in anticipation of further increase in our capital
stock.
Our present plans contemplate the establishment of
stores throughout the Eastern territory during the
present year
Our sales for 1922 amounted to $31 534, 312O0 and
our total gross income amounted to $780, TO- which,
after expenses depreciation and federal taxes, left
net balance of 1868 O58.5O and balance for surplus
and undivided profits of O585O after the deduc-
ton of dividends on Class "A" stock, which were
resumed again effective with June 1st 1922 of ST 90
per share, payable quarterly. and have been paid
regularly since that time. The dividend dates are

=. This Company was chartered under the laws Of
Virginia in November, 1919 but did not begin active
business until January LIST, 1920.
10000 shares of the original issue of stock were
underwritten by group of New York bankers be-
fore active business begun, with the provision that
the writer, Clarence Saunders the President of the
Company, would have the privilege of dsposing of
one-haf of the underwriting in the requirement of
stores and for cash.
The banking syndicate sold the stock they handled

The first, PIGGLY WIGGLY store was established at
Memphis in September 1915. The next town to have
May 1917, and the next Lake Charles La. in
December, 1917. Il
It was in 1913 that the larger development of the
PIGGLY WIGGLY system was begun. These various
units OF stores were established by different companies
WIGGLY STORES, INC, it was necessary to purchase
outright the several units of stores that our
first operation in 1920 and to do this we had to pr
chase leases and the regular PIGGLY WIGGLY CON
tract as well as the store equipment and merchandise
and while the first two mentioned items NAV at first
glance appear high in our statement they could easily
De SOLD at this time for at least double the amount
shown as the book value for these items
Even with the handicap of a new organization made
up OF the several units of stores thus purchased we
made good start with profit but within six months
we had the terrible slump in prices which everybody
can remember, and instead of making profit for the
first year we made loss of 81 600 and then
bank loans were called and other troubles followed
throughout the next year-1921. However we finally
made tL profit in the last quarter Of that year
stores, and at the close of business December 31st
this number had been increased to 663 stores and in
